NOTICE OF CITY COUNCIL DECISION
July 28, 2017
You are receiving this notice because you provided oral or written testimony during the City Council hearing
procedures or requested notice of the City Council's decision on the Eugene Urban Growth Boundary project. On
July 17, 2017, the Eugene City Council voted to approve Ordinance No. 20585, an ordinance establishing the
sufficiency of the City of Eugene's urban growth boundary ("UGB") for purposes of residential land. The City
Council's decision was final on July 24, 2017 (the date it was signed by the Mayor), but portions of it will take
effect only if the Lane County Board of Commissioners adopts a corresponding ordinance. The Lane County Board
of Commissioners is scheduled to consider such an action on August 8, 2017. If the Lane County Board of
Commissioners adopts the corresponding ordinance, another notice will be provided.
Ordinance No. 20585 includes:
• Amendments to the new comprehensive land use plan to adopt a "housing needs analysis" which
demonstrates that no land must be added to Eugene's UGB to meet the City's need for housing, and a new
inventory of Eugene's buildable lands for housing.
• Amendments to the regional comprehensive plan (the Metro Plan) to refer to this action.
• Amendments to the Eugene Land Use Code to increase the required minimum density from 10 to 13
dwelling units per net acre on lots that are 0.5 acre or larger in the R-2 Medium Density Residential zone,
with some exceptions (e.g. housing for low income individuals).

NOTICE OF CITY COUNCIL DECISION
July 28, 2017
You are receiving this notice because you provided oral or written testimony during the City Council hearing
procedures or requested notice of the City Council's decision on the Eugene Urban Growth Boundary project.
On July 17, 2017, the Eugene City Council voted to approve Ordinance No. 20584, an ordinance establishing the
City of Eugene's urban growth boundary ("UGB") with new land to meet the City's need for employment sites,
parks, and a school. The City Council's decision was final on July 24, 2017 (the date it was signed by the Mayor),
but it will take effect only if the Lane County Board of Commissioners adopts a corresponding ordinance. The
Lane County Board of Commissioners is scheduled to consider such an action on August 8, 2017. If the Lane
County Board of Commissioners adopts the corresponding ordinance, another notice will be provided.
Ordinance No. 20584 includes:
• Establishment of the precise location of Eugene's UGB, including additional land in the Clear Lake and Santa
Clara areas to meet the City's long-term needs for employment sites, a school site for the Bethel area, and
community parks for the Bethel and Santa Clara areas.
• Assignment of land use designations and new zones to the land being added to the UGB to allow the land's
current land uses to continue until the landowner proposes to establish the needed employment, park or
school use identified for the land, and to protect particular natural resources on that land as identified in
proposed amendments to the Water Resources Conservation Plan and the Water Quality Waterways Map.
• Adoption of a new comprehensive land use plan that includes policies pertaining to economic development,
transportation, and future monitoring of Eugene's land supply and demand, an "economic opportunities
analysis" and a new inventory of Eugene's buildable lands for employment.
• Amendments of public facilities and transportation plans to add projects needed to keep pace with 20 years
of Eugene's growth.
• Amendments to the current Eugene Land Use Code to establish the /CL Clear Lake Overlay Zone and
stormwater regulations for the Clear Lake expansion area.
