WORK SESSION
1. COMMERCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL BUILDABLE LANDS STUDY –
In the fall of 2004, THE Lane Metro Partnership presented the elected officials of Springfield, Eugene, and Lane County with anecdotal evidence regarding what the Partnership believed was a dwindling and inadequate supply of developable commercial and
industrial land in the two cities and key areas in Lane County. The three governing bodies joined the Partnership in funding an analysis of the existing inventory to validate the status
and amount of land available for commercial and industrial development. The study is near
completion and scheduled for a public meeting of the elected officials on July 12, 2006 at the Lane County Public Works offices on North Delta Highway. This work session is an
opportunity for the Planning Commission to preview the study.
Planner: Greg Mott 45 Minutes 2. JUSTICE CENTER - REQUEST FOR VACATION OF ALLEY - A public hearing for the vacation requested was opened at the regular Planning Commission meeting on June 20, 2006. This hearing was continued to provide staff with the opportunity
to respond to comments from Mr. Fred Simmons. The responses can be found in the staff report prepared by Andy Limbird. The applicant, the City of Springfield, is requesting the right-of-way vacation to facilitate development of a Municipal Justice Center and Jail on the
downtown city block containing the subject alley.
