Subject: Metro Plan Text Amendments, Public Facilities and Services Plan Amendments
Issue
The Metro Plan and the Public Facilities and Services Plan (PFSP) are proposed to be amended to: 1.
clarify the relationship between the types offacilities projects included in the PFSP and projects that
appear in loc'al capital improvement plans; 2. update the PFSP maps based on new statutory provisions;
3. reflect current conditions and planned regional wastewater facilities consistent with the MWMC
Facilities Plan; 4. resolve inconsistencies among metro-wide planning documents; and, 5. adopt a
separate amendment process for the Public Facilities and Services Plan.
Discussion
The proposed amendments are considered Type I Metro Plan amendments because for the most part they
are non-site specific amendments of the Plan text. Amendments to the Plan text, which text includes
functional plans such as TransPlan and the PFSP, that are non site-specific require approval by all three
governing bodies to become effective (See SDC 7.070(l)(a), Eugene Code 9.7730(1)(a), and Lane Code
12.225(1 )(a)(i)). The planning commissions will conduct the initial evidentiary hearing and then forward
the record of this hearing and a recommendation to their respective elected officials. The planning
commissions may take this action 'collectively or independently as the circumstances warrant. The
elected officials shall conduct a joint public hearing on the amendments and shall make a decision based
solely on the record of evidence created before the planning commissions, Each governing body may
approve, modify and approve, or deny the proposed amendment. However, all three governing bodies
must adopt identical ordinances to com plete the amendment process.
The MWMC Proposal
MWMC is proposing several changes to the Metro Plan text in Chapter III, Section G Public Facilities
and Services Element and Chapter V Glossary. The changes in Section III-G include modification of
introductory text (pages III-G-I and II1-G-2) by adding the term Wastewater to the list of services to
development within the urban growth boundary; modification of Policy G.2 (page III-G-4) by adding the
term capital improvement plans to the list of activities intended to implement projects in the PFSP;
modify Finding 6 (page II1-G-4) to include a reference to Map 2a; modification to Policy G.3 (page IIl-G-
4) to include a reference to Map 2a; addition of text followiq.g Policy G.8 (page III-G-5) by inserting the
heading "Services to Development within the Urban Growth Boundary: Wastewater;" adding new
fmdings I] and 12 after Policy G-8 (page II1-G-5) identifying sanitary sewer collection facilities in each
city; adding new policy G.9 (page II1-G-6) that requires wastewater conveyance aria treatment inside the
ugb that is capable of complying with state and/or federal regulations for reuse, discharge or disposal;
subsequent renumbering of all findings and policies in II1-G as a result of these amendments; and,
modification of Chapter V Glossary by amending the defmition of Wastewater under "Public Facilities
Projects" (page V -4) by adding a definition of Treatment Facilities System to the existing definition of
Primary Collection System under the heading Wastewater.
Inaddition to the foregoing changes to the Metro Plan, MWMC is proposing changes to the PFSP to
make this functional plan internally consistent with the Metro Plan. This consistency will be achieved by
modifying text preceding existing Table 3 (page 28) by adding references to Tables 4a and 4b and Map
2a; inserting new Tables 4a and 4b (page 28); inserting new Map 2a (page 35); modifying Chapter IV,
Wastewater System Condition Assessment (page 82) with a new paragraph titled "MWMC Wastewater ~rf

_ Treatment System" and another new paragraph titled "Conveyance;" modifying text "Long-term Service
Availability within Urbanizable Areas" (page 97) by including the need'to apply appropriate engineering
design practices for developmeni in sensitive areas, and the need for facilities improvements to address
dry and wet weather regulatory requirements related to pollutant loads and flows; adding Table 16a (page
10 I); and adding a new Chapter VI. Amendments to the Plan including descriptions of modifications to
existing identified projects which require amendment to the Public Facilities and Services Plan.
The preceding ame~dments are n~cessary both as.information that should have been included when the
PFSP was adopted and as a more accurate description of wastewater services that will be available after
certain capital improvements are made. These amendments also clarify the administrative process
involved in the adoption of annual capital improvements plans intended to implement the generally
described projects in the PFSP without amending the PFSP to demonstrate this consistency of action.
This process already exists between the metro-wide projects in the PFSP and the locally adopted CIP's of
the two cities, the county and the special service providers, but without the "codification" provided by
these proposed amendments.!
The proposed PFSP amendment process borrows liberally from the existing Metro Plan amendment
process for reasons both.obvious and practical. However, unlike the Metro Plan, the PFSP is a specialty
document that does not always have applicability to other. land use issues addressed in ihe Metro Plan.
For this reason a separate amendment process, designed to account for the unique perspective and
requirements of the PFSP, is proposed. Major adjustments to the PFSP project list, either through
addition of wholly new projects or significant modification of existing projects, requires an amendment to
the PFSP and is subjecno the same criteria and agency participation as amendments to the Metro Plan:
This includes the distinction of "hoine city" if the proposed amendment is entirely within the city limits of.
one of the two cities. Adoption ofCIP's by any ofth.e identified service providers does not require
amendment to the PFSP unless those ClP's contain one of the two triggers identified above. In those
instances, the PFSPwould need to be amended before that particular ClP could. be adopted.
The proposed amendment process also includes a description of "modifications" that fall outside the
requirement to amend the PFSP. These modifications include administrative changes to a project that
does not change t\Je location, sizing, capacity or other general characteristics of the project, or technical
and environmental changes made to a project because of "final engineering."
Conclusion
All of the proposed amendments fall into one of three categorie's: information that should have been
included with the December 2001 Public Facilities and Services Plan regarding wastewater facilities;
clarification of the relationship between the PFSP project list and locally adopted capital improvement
plans; and, administrative and legislative processes governing implementation and amendment of the
PFSP projects list. Whether it is Chapter III-G of the Metro Plan or the various sections ofPFSP text that
are amended, each of the MWMC proposals is a necessary and felicitous addition to these documents.
Attachment 1 demonstrates this further by identifYing how these proposals satisfY the criteria for Plan
amendment in Section 7.030(3)(a&b), Section 9.128(3)(a&b), and Section 12.225(2)(a&b) of Springfield,
Eugene.~nd Lane Codes, respectively.

File LRP 2004-,0001 Amendments to the Metro Plan and Public Facilities and Services
Plan
Applicant: . .
City of Springfield on behalf of the Metropolitan Wastewater Management Commission
(MWMC) , .
Nature of the Application:
The applicant proposes to amend the Eugene-Springfield Metropolitan Area General
Plan (Metro Plan) and the Public Facilities and Services Plan (PFSP)l to (I) more
. adequately reflect the impactthat new discharge permit restrictions will have had on the
capacity of the regional wastewater treatment system, (2) to clarify the relationship'
between the PFSP project list imd locally adopted capital improvement plans, and (3) to .
modifY (streamline) the administrative and legislative processes that govern the .
implementalipn and amendment of the PFSP projects list.' ,
Background:
MWMC's'regional wastewater treatment facilities were designed and constructed in the
'late 1970's with a 20-year life expectancy. Slower that expected population growth in the
1980's extended this life expectancy. In 1996~97 MWMC developed a Master Plan to
evaluate the performance of its facilities, to ascertain areas of constraints within the
existing pennit conditions, to identifY short-term improvements (e.g. how to address
seismic hazards), and to address other major issues that needed t() be studied'further.
In May of 2002 the Oregon Department of EnvironmentaI Quality (DEQ) imposed new
and more stringent discharge penhit standards on the regional wastewater treatment
, '
,facilities, particularly in regard to the treatment of ammonia and thernplloading. As .
MWMC staff began to evaluate design needs for its wastewater facilities, it became '
apparent to them that the existing facilities could not meet the demands imposed by the
. new discharge permit restrictions.
. J~ .
.'._-
Recognizing that a thorough assessment of wastewater collection, treatment and
disposal/reuse needs for the next 20 years was essential, the MWMC; began work on the
2004 Wastewater Facilities Plan, a comprehensive facilities plan update. The objectives
of the 2004 Wastewater Facilities Plan are twofold. First, it is'intended to provide for
adequate co~munity growth capacity through 2025, considering policies in the Metro
Plan and current planning assessments for population and development. Second, the 2004
Wastewater Facilities Plan is intended to protect community health and safety by
addressing sanitary sewer overflows, river safety, permit compliance and the' cost-
effective use of existing facilities and the efficient design of new facilities.

The 2004 Wastewater Facilities Plan recognizes and addresses the fact that the regional.
wastewater system for the Eugene-Springfield metropolitan, area does not have the
capacity to meet all of the discharge standards imposed by state and federal law. Neither
the Metro Plan nor the PFSP currently reflect this situation. Statewide Planning Goal 2
requires that the city, county and special district plans be consistent. hi large part, the-
amendments proposed by this application address the issue of consistency between the
Metro Plan and the PFSP and consistency of the 2004 Wastewater Facilities Plan with the
former documents. The proposed amendments'provide information that should have been
included in the PFSP when it was adopted and present a more accurate description of
wastewater services that will be available after certain capital improvement projects are
completed. ,.
Phasing objectives of the 2004 Wastewater Facilities Plan necessitate that construction of
se;veral key facility.compbnents.begin by June of2005 in order to meet federal standards
thatrequire that peak wet weather events be mamiged by 2010. In order to meetthis '
rigorous construction schedule, MWMC must have released Requests for Proposals
(RFPs) for engineering design for by October of2004. Prior to this date, the 2004 .
Wastewater Facilities Plan must be adopted by the three metropolitan jurisdictions and
the Metro Plan and the PFSP should be updated to reflect current infonnation.
In summary! the application proposes the following changes:

Metropolitan Area General Plan Amendment Criteria
The propos~d amendments are considered to be Type I Metro Plan amendments because
they are non-site specific amendments to the Plan text. Amendments to the Plan text, '
which include changes to functional plans such as TransPlanand the PFSP, and.that are
non~si(e specific require approval by all three goveiningbodies to becom~ effective: 2
Springfield,Eugene~nd Lane County each adopted identical Metro Plan amendment
, criteri!l i!1to '!ii.elrrespe~tive implementing ordinances 'and codes. Springfield Code
Section 7.070(3) (a & b), Eugene Code 9.128(3) (a & b), and Lane Code 12.225(2) (a &

. The Federal Water Pollution,Control Act; P.L. 92-500, as am~nded in 1977,
became known as the Clean Water Act (33 U.S.C. 1251 etseq.). The goal of this
Act was to eliminate the 'discharge of pollutants into the navigable waters. ORS
468B.035 requires the Oregon Environmental Quality Commission (EQCY to
implement the Federal Water Pollution Control Act. The pnmary method of
implementation of this Act'is through the issuance ofa National Pollutant <
Discharge Elimination System (Ni>DES) permit prior to the discharge of any
wastes into the waters of the state. (ORS 468B.050) Among the,~pollutants"
regulated by the EQC are temperature (OAR 340-041-0028) and toxic substances
(OAR340-041-0033). .

this objective in that the Metro Plan, the PFSP and.the 2004 Wastewater Facilities
Plan must be consistent in order to comply with State discharge pt;rmit conditions
that will detennine the improvements to the Regional Wastewater System that are
necessary to address new regulatory standards. The improvements are necessary .

The proposed changes to the Metio Plan,are essentially of a "housekeeping"
nature. They essentially recognize the role of wastewater. service provision within
the urban growth boundary by the addition or modificaiion of applicable findings
and add or modifY policy language to clarifY the relationship between the Metro
Plan and thePFSP in regard to capital improvement plans and the commitment to
comply with regulatory requirements. The proposed changes, as presented, will
not create internal inconsistencies within the Metro Plan. '
The proposed changes also amend the PFSP to more accurately reflect MWMC's
planned improvement projects for its wastewater treatment system and primary ,
, collection system; to provide rough cost and timing estimates for those
improvements, update narrative information regarding necessary improvements to
the wastewater ti-e~tinent system and primary collection system, and more clearly'
implement the plan modification standards contained in OAR 660-011-0045(3).
The proposed'changes to thePFSP do not create any inconsistencies within the'
, ,PFSP nor do they create any inconsistencies between the PFSP and the Metro
Plan.

APPENDIX A,
PROPOSED CHANGES TO Tl:lE METRO PLAN
G. Public Facilities and Services Element
This Public Facilities and Services Element provides direction for the future provision of
urban facilities and services to planned land uses' within the Metro Plan PlanBoundary
, , (Plan Boundary). '
, ,
" '
- . ..~. ,
The availability of public facilities and services is a key faCtor influencing the location
and density of future development. The public's investment in, and scheduling of, public.
facilities and services are a major means of implementing the Metro Plan. As the
population or the Eugene-Springfield area increases and land development pattems
change over time, the demand for urban services also increases and changes. These
changes require that serviCe providers, both public and private, plan for the provision of
serviCes in a coordinated manner, using consistent assumptions arid projections for
. population and land use. . '
The policies in this eiement complement Metro'Plan Chapter II-A, Fundamental
Principles, and Chapter II-C, Growth'Management. Consistent with the principle of
compact urban growth prescribed in Chapter II, the policies in this element call for future
. urban water and wastewater services to be provid'ed exclusively within the urban growth
boundary (UGB). This policy direction is 'consistent with Statewide Planning Goal II :
Public Facilities and Services, "To plan and develop a timely, orderly and'efficient
arrangement of public facilities and services to serve as a framework for urban and rural. .
development." On urban lands, new development must be served by at least the
miilimum level of key urban services and facilities at the time development is completed
and, ultimately, by a full range of key urban services and facilities. On rural lands within
the Plan Boundary, development rimst be served by rural levels of service. Users of
, facilities and services in rural areas are spread out geographically, resulting in a higher
per-user cost for some services and, often, in an inadequate revenue base to support a
higher level of service in the' future. Some urbim facilities may be located or managed
outside the urban growt1i.boundary, as'allowed by state law, but only to ,s'erVe "
development within the UGB.

Urban facilities and services within the UUB are provided by the City of Eugene, the City
of Springfield, Lane County, Eugene Water & Electric Board (EWEB), the Springfield '
Utility Board (SUB), the Metropolitan Wastewater Management Commission (MWMC),
electric cooperatives, and special service districts. Special service districts provide
schools and bus' serVice, and, in some areas outside the cities, they provide water, electric,
'fire service or parks and recreation service. This element provides guidelines for special.
service districts in line with the compact urban development fundamental principle of the
Metro Plan. '

This element incorporates the findings and policies in the Eugene-Springfield
Metropolitan Area Public Facilities and Services Plein (Public Facilities and Seryices
. Plan), adopted as a refinement to the Metro Plan. The Public Facilities and SerVices
, Plan provides guidarice for public facilities and services, including planned water,
wastewater, stormwater, and electrical facilities. As required by Goal I I, the Public,
Facilities and Services Plan identifies and shows the generallociltiOn' of the water,
wastewater;.and stormwater projects needed to serve land within the UGB.' The Public
Facilities and Services Plan also contains this information for electrical facilities,
although not required to ,bylaw. .
The project lists and maps in the Public Facilities and Services Plan are adopted as part
of the Metro Plan. Information in the Public Facilities and Services Plan on project
phasing and costs, and,decisions on timing and financing of projects are not part of the
, M.etro Plan and 'are controUed solely by the capital-improvement programming and
budget processes of individual service providers.
The policies listed provide direction for public and private developmental and program
decision-making regarding urban facilities and services. Development should be
coordinated with the planning, financing, and construction of key urban facilities and
services to 'ensure the efficient use and expansion of these facilities.'
Goals
I. Provide and maintain public faCilities and servic~sin an efficient and'
environmentally responsible manner.
2. Provide public facilities and services in a manner that encourages orderly and
sequential growth.
Findings and Policies
The findings and policies in this element are organized by the foUowing four topics
, relatetho the provision of urban facilities and services. Policy direction for the full range
of urban facilities and services, ilwludiag wastewater :::-::::,- maybe found under any of
these topics, although the fifst topic, Services to Development Within the Urban Growth
Boundary, is further broken down into sub-categories, -'

1. Urban expansion within the UGB is. accomplished through in-fill, redevelopment,
and annexation of territory which, can be served with a minimum level of key
urb~ services and facilities. This pennits new development to use existing'
. facilities an.d services, or those which canbe easily~xtended, minimizing the
public cost of extending urban facilities and services. .'
2. In accordance with Statewide Planning Goal'll and OAR 660, ihe Public
Facilities and Services Plan identifies jurisdictional responsibility for the .
. provision of water, wastewater and stormwater, describes respective service areas
and existing arid planned water, wastewater, and storm water facilities, and .
contains planned facilities maps for these services. Electric system infonnation
and improvements are inciuded in the Public Facilities and Services Plan; .
although not required'by state law:. Local facility master plans and refinelnenf
. plans provide more specific project information. ..
3. Urban ~ervices within the metropolitan UGS are provided by the City of Eugene,
the City of Springfield, Lane County,E~B, SUB,theMWMC, elt;ptric .
cooperatives, and .special service districts. . ',i .
4.
. .
.The Public Facilities and Services Plan finds that almost all areas wltli.1n the city
limits of Eugene and Springfield are served or can be .~erved in the short-term (0-5
years) with water, wastewater, stormwater, and electric service. Exceptions to .
this are stormwater service to portions qfthe Willow Creek area and .southeast
Springfield and full water service at some higher elevations in Eugene's South
Hills. Service to these areas will be available in the long-tenn. Service to all
areas within city limits are either in a capital improvement plan or can be
extended with development. .
. With the improvements specified in the Public Fa~ilities and Services Plan
. project lists, all urbanizable areas within the Eugene-Springfield UGB can be
served with water, wastewater, storm water, and electric service at the time those
. areas are.developed. In general, areas outside city limits serviceable in the long- .

provided.within the.LTGB. '
8. Large i[lstitutionaiuses; such as universities an'd hospitals, present complex
planning problems for the metropolitan area due to their location, facility
expansion plans,' and continuing housing and parking needs. '

10. As discussed in the Public Facilities and Services Plan, a majority of nodal
development areas proposed inTransPlan are serviceable now or in the short-
tenn. The City of Eugene's adopted Growth Management Policy #15 states,
"Target publicly-financed infrastructure extensions to support development for
higher ilensities, in-fill, mixed uses, and nodal development."

This chapter describes the'method to be used in the event it becomes necessary or ' .
appropriate to modifY the text, tables or the maps contained in the Public Facilities ""'-~
Services Plan ("the Plan"). " .
Flexibility of the Piau "
Certain public facility project descriptions, location or service area designations will
. necessarilY change as a result of subsequent design studies, capital improvement
programs, environmental impact studies and changes in potential sources of funding, The
, Plan is not designed to either prohibit projects not included in the plan for which
unanticipated funding has been obtained, preclude project specification and location"
decisions made according to the National Environmental Policy Act, or subject
administrative and technical changes to the plan to post-acknowledgement'review or
review by the Land Use Board of Appeals, .'.
Forthe purposes of this Plan, two types of modifications.are identified.
, .
A. Modifications requiring amendment of the Plan.
The fOllowirig modifications require amendment of the Plan:
,,', " ' . , .' · "'4}r:l--lr " . (\ (
, 1. Amendments, which. include those modifications or changes to.the li;t, CAn ~ ~
location or provider of public facility projects which significantly impact a "\ ~ \1:,....) ,
publiC facility project identified in the comprehensive plan, and which do .
not qualifY as administrative or technical and ,environmental changes, as
. , defined below. Amendments are subject to the ~dministrativeprocedures
and review and appeal procedures applicable to land use decisions.,
2. . Adoption of capital improvement program project lists by any serVice
provider do riot require modification of this Plan unless the requirements
of subparagraph I above are met.
B. Modifications permitted without amendment of the Plan.
The following modifications do not require amendment of this Plan:
1.
Administrative changes are those modifications to' a'public facility project
which are mlnor"in nature and do not significantly impact the'project's
general description, location, sizing"capacity.or other general
characteristic of the project.
Technical and environmental changes are those modifications to a public
facility project which are made pursuant to "final engineering" on a project
or those which result from the findings of an Environmental Assessment
'or Environmenta! Impact Statement conducted under regulations

IMPACT:
COUN"CIL INITIATION OF AMENDMENTS TO THE EUGENE-SPRlNGFIELD
METROPOLITAN AREA GENERAL PLAN (METRO PLAN) AND THE PUBLIC
FACILITIES AND SERVICES PLAN (PFSP).
, Review Staff s request to initiate amendments to the Metro Plan andPFSP during the
Work Session and initiate the amendment process. during the Regular Session.
Amendments to the Metro Plan - Public Facilities and Services Element, and to the
PFSP,.are needed to: I) clarify the relationship between, and the types of facilities
projects included in, the PFSP and local capita! improvement-plans (tIPs); 2) update the
PFSP maps based on new statutes; 3) reflect current conditions andphimed regional "
wastewaferfacilities consistent with the MWMC Facilities Master Plan-Update currently
I . . .
under way; and 4) resolve inconsistencies ainong metro-wide planning documents.
None. .
The PFSP includes inventories, condition assessments, project lists and policies for key
urban public facilities, including wastewater collection and treatment. Since the
inception of these metro-wide comprehensive plans; the wastewater facilities included in
the project lists have been limited to pump stations and 24" or larger pipes. Capital'
'improvements to the regional wastewater treatment.facilities have been addressed only
through.the Metropolitan Wastewater Management Commission (MWMC) CIP process.
-- .'
The PFSPwas updated in 200 I as part of the MetroPlariperiodic review process. It
, contains a condition and capacity assessment of the regional wastewater treatment
facilities based on the information available atthattime. The text references two .areas'
of constrained capaCity and the planned work to resolve them. Consistent with past"
practice, no wastewater treatment facility projects were included in the PFSP project list.
An updated MWMC Facilities Master Plan; which will update the inforinationin the
PFSP, is nearly complete. The Facilities Master Plan identifies a list-of projects that will
, .need to be constructed over the next ten years in order to comply with the wastewater
disc~ge permit issued in 2002 and with additional peak wet weather flow management' ,
requirements, as well as to provide adequate capacity through 2025. '
. - ''Ii~'
Local and regional wastewater program and planning staff, along with legal counsel,
have concluded that several amendments to the Metro.Plan and PFSP are advisable. The
amendments would .result in updated wastewater system text, and clarification of the "
. definitions ofPFSP-included projects vs. projects included in 10calCIPs'only. The
. amendments also would ensure that all of the metropolitan planning documents provide
a consistent and legal framework for developing both regional wastewater Facilities
Master Plan projects and city iTIfrastructure projects not currently addressed,in the PFSP,
, , The types of Metro Plan and PFSPamendments contemplated are defuied by the Metro
Plan as "Type IT: amendments; which must'be initiated by one of the three governing
bodies. Expeditious review of the amendments will be critical to timely, design and
_,' ' _' construction of newly identified regional wastewater facilities, which is slated to begin in

Date Received:" ''''':';';:''J(Z7;~and have tentatively scheduled a Joint Planning Commission public hearing

is currently und~r way, :uW~h.~ ~to the City Council for review and cOlIlIJlent

text to read as follows: . .
Chapter ill-G. Public Facilities and Services Element
G, Public FaCilities and Services Element
, ' ,
This Public Faciliti~s and Services Element provide~ direction for the future provision 'of
urban facili~es and services to planned land uses within the Plan boundary. The
availability of public facilities and services is a'key factor influencing the location and
density .of future development The public's investment in, and scheduling of: public
faCilities and services are a major means of implementing the M~tro Plan. As the '
popUlat,ion of the EU:gene-Springfield area increases and land development patterns'
change overtime, the demand for urban services alSo increases and changes. These
changes require that s(:rvice providers, both public and priv~, plan for the provision of
services in 'a cOordinated manner, using consistent assumptions andprojecti~ns for
population and land use..
The policies in this' element cOmplement Metro Plan C1Japt~r II-A: F.undain"!'Ifal
, 'Principles'and Chapter,II-B: Growth Management. Consistent with the principle of .'
compact urban growth prescribed in Chapter II, the policies in this element Call for future
urban water and wastewater services to be provided exclusively within the urban groV,1th
boup.dary. This policy diTection is cOnsistent with Statewide Plannirig GOal H , "To plan
and develup a timely, orderly, and efficientarnuigement of public faciliti~ and services
to serve as a,frameWork-for urban and rural development" On urban landS, ,new
developmen( must be served by at least the'minimum level of key urban: services at the
time development is completed and, ultimately, by a full range of key Urban service~. On '
rin-aJ. lands within the Plan boundary, development must be served by rural levels of
service. JJsers offacilities and services in rural areas are spread out geographiCally,
resulting in a higher per-nser cost for some,services and, often, in an inadequate revenue,
base to support a higher level of service in the future. Some urban facilities may be
located or managed outside the urban growth boundary, as allowed by/state I8.w, but only ,
to serve development within the urban growth boundary. '
-~:
.',
Urban facilities and services within the urban growth boundary are provided by the City
of Eugene, the City of Springfield, Lane County, Eugene Water & Electric Board
(EWEB), the Springfield Utility Board (~UB), the M,,:"'v~vlitan Wastewater .
, Management Cornmiooion (MWMC),electric cooperatives, and special service districts,
Speciaf service districts provide schools and bus service, and, in some areas outside the
cities, they provide water, electric, fire serviCe, or parks and recreation service, This ' '

In'March of2003,MWMC hired CH2M HILL to evaluate and plan for regional '
wastewater capit3.I improvements that will serve the Eugene/Springfield urban growth " .

improvements.to meet regulatory requirements based on projected polhition loads and.. "" ,.:
,flows. CH2M mLL as part of its work to evaluate and plan for regional wastewater
. improvements has prepared a technical memo related to "Flow and Load Projections"
, dated October 7, 2003. This historical and projected infoimation is being used to pian for
needed MWMC capital improvements based on engineering evaluation methods and by ,
Cl.=p",:Og tecbnoiogy options; It is estimated that ";"~.v.JnlateJy $160 niillion'dollars .
(in 2004 dollars) are needed for MWMC projects to address regulatory requirements and

Conveyance:
Conveyance capacity andiriflowand infiltration (III) ratios are important criteria by
whiCh to assess the performance of a wastewater collection system. Conveyance capacity
"
is a function of adequate pipe sizing and measures a system's ability to move effluent
efficiently, Inflow and infiltration ratios express the amount of stormwater entering a
sewer system thro"Ugh defective pipes .ahd pipe joints, or through the cross connection of
~ stormwa1er lines, combined sewers, catch basllis, or manhole covers. Such extraneous '
. ,stormwater entering the wastewater system unnecessarily burdens both conveyance and

The following inodifications require amendnlent of the Plan: ' ...... u.. "
1. Amendments, which include those modifications or. changes to the list,
location or provider of public facility projects which significantly iinpact a
public facility project identified in the comprehensive plan, and which do
not qualify as .clministrative or technical and environmental: changes, as
defined below. Amenchi::lents are subject to the .clmini<:trative procedures
and review and appeal procedures applicable to land use decisions,
2. Adoption of capital im.pfovement program project lists by any service
provider do not require modification of this Plan unless the requirements
of subparagraph 1 above are met _
B: Modifications permitted .Without amendment of the Plan:'
The following modifications do not require amendment of this Plan: '
1. Administrative changes are those modifications to a public facility project
which are minor in nature and do not significantly impact the project's
general description, location, sizing, capacity or other general
characteristic of the project '.
2.. TechniciU aner environmental changes are those modifications to a public
facility project which are made pursuant to "final engineering" on a project

From: Gregory Mott:Planning Manger
Date: April 20, 2004
Subject: Metro Plan Text Amendments, Public Facilities and Services Plan Amendments
Issue
The Metro Plan and the Public Facilities and Services Plan (PFSP) are proposed to be amended to: I.
clarify the relationship between the types offacilities projects included in the PFSP and projects that
appear in local capital improvement plans; 2. update the PFSP maps based on new statutory provisions;
3. reflect current conditions and planned regional wastewater facilities consistent with the MWMC
Facilities Master Plan Update; 4. resolve inconsistencies among metro-wide planning documents; and, 5.
adopt a separate amendment process for the Public Facilities and Services Plan.
Discussion
The proposed amendments are considered Type I Metro Plan amendments because for the most part they
are non-site specific amendments of the Plan text. Amendments to the Plan text, which text includes
functional plans such as TransPlan and the PFSP, that are non site-specific require approval by all three
governing bodies to become effective (See SDC 7.070(1)(a), Eugene Code 9.7730(1)(a), and Lane Code
12.225( I )(a)(i)). TIle planning commissions will conduct the initial evidentiary hearing and then forward
the record of this hearing and a recommendation to their respective elected officials. The planning
commissions may take this action collectively or independently as the circumstances warrant. The
elected officials shall conduct a joint public hearing on the amendments and shall make a decision based
solely all the record of evidence created before the planning commissions. Each governing body may
approve, modify and approve, or deny the proposed amendment. However, all three goveming bodies
must adopt identical ordinances to complete the amendment process.
The MWMC Proposal
MWMC is proposing several changes to the Metro Plan text in Chapter Ill, Section G Public Facilities
and Services Element and Chapter V Glossary. TIle changes in Section IlI-G include modification of
introductory text (pages IlI-G-I and IlI-G-2) by adding the term Wastewater to the list of services to
development within the urban growth boundary; modification of Policy G.2 (page IlI-G-4) by adding the
teml capital improvemem plalls to the list of activities intended to implement projects in the PFSP;
modify Finding 6 (page I/l-G-4) to include a reference to Map 2a; modification to Policy G.3 (page IlI-G-
4) to include a reference to Map 2a; addition of text following Policy G.8 (page IIl.G-5) by inserting the
heading "Services to Developmellt withillthe Urball Growth BOlllldary: Wastewater;" adding new
findings II and 12 after Policy G-8 (page IIl-G-5) identifying sanitary sewer collection facilities in each
city; adding new policy G.9 (page IlI-G-6) that requires wastewater conveyance and treatment inside the
ugb that is capable of complying with state and/or federal regulations for reuse, discharge or disposal;
subsequent renumbering of all findings and policies in IlI-G as a result of these amendments; and,
modification of Chapter V Glossary by amending the definition of Wastewater under "Public Facilities
Projects" (page V-4) by adding a definition of Treatmellt Facilities System to the existing definition of
Primary Collection System under the heading Wastewater.
In addition to the foregoing changes to the Metro Plan, MWMC is proposing changes to the PFSP to
make this functional plan internally consistent with the Metro Plan. This consistency will be achieved by
modifying text preceding existing Table 3 (page 28) by adding references to Tables 4a and 4b and Map
2a; inserting new Tables 4a and 4b (page 28); inserting new Map 2a (page 35); modifying Chapter IV,
Wastewater System Condition Assessment (page 82) with a new paragraph titled "MWMC Wastewater
Date Recelver\' L-(' ~ -ex.{
Planner: GM
Treatment System" and another new paragraph titled "Conveyance;" modifying text "Long-term Service
Availability within Urbanizable Areas" (page 97) by including the need to apply appropriate engineering
design practices for development in sensitive areas, and the need for facilities improvements to address
dry and wet weather regulatory requirements related to pollutant loads and flows; adding Table 16a (page
10 I); and adding a new Chapter VI. Amendments to the Plan including descriptions of modifications to
existing identified projects which require amendment to the Public Facilities and Services Plan.
The preceding amendments are necessary both as information that should have been included when the
PFSP was adopted and as a more accurate description of wastewater services that will be available after
certain capital improvements are made. These amendments also clarify the administrative process
involved in the adoption of annual capital improvements plans intended to implement the generally
described projects in the PFSP without amending the PFSP to demonstrate this consistency of action.
This process already exists between the metro-wide projects in the PFSP and the locally adopted CIP's of
the two cities, the county and the special service providers, but without the "codification" provided by
these proposed amendments. I
The proposed PFSP amendment process borrows liberally from the existing Metro Plan amendment
process for reasons both obvious and practical. However, unlike the Metro Plan, the PFSP is a specialty
document that does not always have applicability to other land use issues addressed in the Metro Plan.
For this reason a separate amendment process, designed to account for the unique perspective and
requirements of the PFSP, is proposed. Major adjustments to the PFSP project list, either through
addition of wholly new projects or significant modification of existing projects, requires an amendment to
the PFSP and is subject to the same criteria and agency participation as amendments to the Metro Plan.
This includes the distinction of "home city" if the proposed amendment is entirely within the city limits of
one of the two cities. Adoption ofCIP's by any of the identified service providers does not require
amendment to the PFSP unless those CIP's contain one of the two triggers identified above. In those
instances, the PFSP would need to be amended before that particular CIP could be adopted.
The proposed amendment process also includes a description of "modifications" that fall outside the
requirement to amend the PFSP. These modifications include administrative changes to a project that
does not change the location, sizing, capacity or other general characteristics of the project, or technical
and environmental changes made to a project because of "final engineering."
Conclusion
All of the proposed amendments fall into one of three categories: information that should have been
included with the December 200 I Public Facilities and Services Plan regarding wastewater facilities;
clarification of the relationship between the PFSP project list and locally adopted capital improvement
plans; and, administrative and legislative processes governing implementation and amendment of the
PFSP projects list. Whether it is Chapter III -G of the Metro Plan or the various sections of PFSP text that
are amended, each of the MWMC proposals is a necessary and felicitous addition to these documents.
Attachment I demonstrates this further by identifying how these proposals satisfy the criteria for Plan
amendment in Section 7.030(3)(a&b), Section 9.128(3)(a&b), and Section 12.225(2)(a&b) of Springfield,
Eugene and Lane Codes, respectively.

Staff Report and Findings of Compliance with the Metro Plan and Statewide
Goals and Administrative Rules
File LRP 2004-0001 Amendments to the Metro Plan and Public Facilities and Services
Plan
Applicant: .
City of Springfield on behalf of the Metropolitan Wastewater Management Commission
(MWMC)
Nature of the Application:
The applicant proposes to amend the Eugene-Springfield Metropolitan Area General
Plan (Metro Plan) and the Public Facilities and Services Plan (PFSP)1 to (I) more
adequately reflect the impact that new discharge permit restrictions will have had on the
capacity ofthe regional wastewater treatment system, (2) to clarifY the relationship
between the PFSP project list and locally adopted capital improvement plans, and (3) to
modifY (streamline) the administrative and legislative processes that govern the
implementation and amendment of the PFSP projects list.
Background:
MWMC's regional wastewater treatment facilities were designed and constructed in the
late 1970's with a 20-year life expectancy. Slower that expected population growth in the
1980's extended this life expectancy. In 1996-97 MWMC developed a Master Plan to
evaluate the performance of its facilities, to ascertain areas of constraints within the
existing permit conditions, to identifY short-term improvements (e.g. how to address
seismic hazards), and to address other major issues that needed to be studied further,
~
In May of2002 the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) imposed new
and more stringent discharge permit standards on the regional wastewater treatment
facilities, particularly in regard to the treatment of ammonia and thermal loading. As
MWMC staff began to evaluate design needs for its wastewater facilities, it became
apparent to them that the existing facilities could not meet the demands imposed by the
new discharge permit restrictions.
Recognizing that a thorough assessment of wastewater collection, treatment and
disposaUreuse needs for the next 20 y,ears was essential, the MWMC began work on the
2004 Wastewater Facilities Plan, a comprehensive facilities plan update. The objectives
of the 2004 Wastewater Facilities Plan are twofold. First, it is intended to provide for
adequate community growth capacity through 2025, considering policies in the Metro
Plan and current planning assessments for population and development. Second, the 2004
Wastewater Facilities Plan is intended to protect community health and safety by
addressing sanitary sewer overflows, river safety, permit compliance and the cost-
effective use of existing facilities and the efficient design of new facilities.

ATTACHMENT

c,
, .-
The 2004 Wastewater Facilities Plan recognizes and addresses the fact that the regional
wastewater system for the Eugene-Springfield metropolitan area does not have the
capacity to meet all of the discharge standards imposed by state and federal law. Neither
the Metro Plan nor the PFSP currently reflect this situation. Statewide Planning Goal 2
requires that the city, county and special district plans be consistent. In large part, the.
amendments proposed by this application address the issue of consistency between the
Metro Plan and the PFSP and consistency of the 2004 Wastewater Facilities Plan with the
former documents. The proposed amendments provide information that should have been
included in the PFSP when it was adopted and present a more accurate description of
wastewater services that will be available after certain capital improvement projects are
completed.
Phasing objectives of the 2004 Wastewater Facilities Plan necessitate that construction of
several key facility components begin by June of2005 in order to meet federal standards
that-require that peak wet weather events be managed by 2010. In order to meet this
rigorous construction schedule, MWMC must have released Requests for Proposals
(RFPs) for engineering design for by October of2004. Prior to this date, the 2004
Wastewater Facilities Plan must be adopted by the three metropolitan jurisdictions and
the Metro Plan and the PFSP should be updated to reflect current information.
In summary, the application proposes the following changes:
Metro Plan
I. Specifically recognizes "wastewater" as a subcategory of service within the Urban
Growth Boundary. [Chapter III-G]
2. Amends Finding #6 and Policy #3 to recognize the addition of Map 2a "Existing
Wastewater Collection and Treatment Systems" to the PFSP. [Chapter III-G]
3, Amends Policy #2 to include local capital improvement plans as a means to
implement policy in the PFSP. [Chapter III-G]
4. Inserts two findings regarding local and regional wastewater services to
development within the urban growth boundary. [Chapter III-G]
5. Adds a new policy G.9 that makes a commitment to providing the conveyance
and treatment of wastewater to meet the needs of projected growth within the
urban growth boundary and that meets regulatory requirements. [Chapter III-G]

the subdivision entitled "Long-Term Service Availability Within Urbanizable
Areas" in Chapter IV. (Page 97).
5. Adds new Table 16a (following Table 16) entitled "MWMC Wastewater
Treatment and Collection System Improvements, Rough Cost Estimate, and
Timing Estimate." (Page WI)
6. Adds new Chapter VI regarding amendments to the PFSP.
Metropolitan Area General Plan Amendment Criteria
The proposed amendments are considered to be Type I Metro Plan amendments because
they are non-site specific amendments to the Plan text. Amendments to the Plan text,
which include changes to functional plans such as TransPlan and the PFSP, and that are
non-site specific require approval by all three governing bodies to become effective.2
Springfield, Eugene and Lane County each adopted identical Metro Plan amendment
criteria into their respective implementing ordinances and codes. Springfield Code
Section 7.070(3) (a & b), Eugene Code 9.128(3) (a & b), and Lane Code 12.225(2) (a &
b) require that the amendment be consistent with relevant statewide planning goals and
that the amendment will not make the Metro Plan internally inconsistent. These criteria
are addressed as follows:
(a) The amendment must be consistent with the relevant statewide planning goals
adopted by the Land Conservation and Development Commission;
Goall - Citizen Involvement
To develop a citizen involvement program that insures the opportunity for citizens
to be involved in all phases of the planning process.
The two cities and the county have acknowledged land use codes that are intended
to serve as the principal implementing ordinances for the Metro Plan. SDC Article
7 METRO PLAN AMENDMENTS and SDC Article 14 PUBLIC HEARINGS
prescribe the manner in which a Type I Metro Plan amendment must be noticed.
Citizen involvement for a Type I Metro Plan amendment not related to an urban
growth boundary amendment requires: I) Notice to interested parties; 2) Notice
1 See SDC 7.070(1)(.), EC 9.7730(1)(.), .nd LC 12.225(I)(a)(i).

shall be published 'in a newspaper of general circulation; 3) Notice shaH be
provided to the Department of Land Conservation and Development (DLCD) at
least 45 days before the initial evidentiary hearing (planning commission).
Notice of the joint planning commission hearing was published in the Springfield
News and in the Register-Guard on March 31, 2004. Notice to interested parties
was, mailed on April I, 2004. Notice of the first evidentiary hearing was provided
to DLCD on March 4, 2004. The notice to DLCD identified the City of Eugene,
Lane County, DEQ and EP A as affected agencies,
Requirements under Goal' i are met by adherence to the citizen involvement
. processes required by the Metro Plan and implemented by the Springfield
Development Code, Articles 7 and 14; the Eugene Code, Sections 9.7735 and
9.7520; Lane Code Sections 12.025 and 12.240.
Goal 2 - Land Use Planning - To establish a land use planning process and
policy framework as a basis for all decisions and actions related to use of land
and to assure an adequate factual base for such decisions and actions.
All land-use plans and implementation ordinances shall be adopted by the
governing body after public hearing and shall be reviewed and, as needed,
revised on a periodic cycle to take into account changing public policies and
circumstances, in accord with a schedule set forth in the plan. Opportunities
shall be providedfor review and comment by citizens and affected governmental
units during preparation, review and revision of plans and implementation
ordinances.
Implementation Measures - are the means used to carry out the plan. These are
of two general types: (1) management implementation measures such as
ordinances, regulations or project plans, and (2) site or area specific '
implementation measures such as permits and grants for construction,
construction of public facilities or provision of services.
The most recent version of the Metro Plan is being considered on April 20, 2004
for final adoption by Springfield (Ordinance No. ~, by Eugene (Council Bill
No. 4860) and by Lane County (Ordinance No, 1197) after numerous public
meetings, public workshops and joint hearings of the Sp,~ngfield, Eugene and
Lane County Planning Commissions and Elected Officials.
The Metro Plan is the "land use" or comprehensive plan required by this goal; the
Springfield Development Code, the Eugene Code and the Lane Code are the
"implementation measures" required by this goal. Comprehensive plans, as
defined by ORS 197.015(5i, must be coordinated with affected governmental
units.4 Coordination means that comments from affected governmental units are

solicited and considered, In this regard, DLCD's Notice of Proposed Amendment
form was sent to the City of Eugene, Lane County, DEQ and EPA.
One aspect of the Goal 2 coordination requirement concerns population
projections. In this respect, the proposed amendment to the PFSP Glossary
conceming Wastewater incorporates a projected year 2025 population for the
Eugene-Springfield Urban Growth Boundary of 276,044.5 This projection is
consistent with the most recent (1997) final forecasts provided to Lane County by
the Oregon Office of Economic Analysis and the Year 2000 Census. The adoption
of this modification to the PFSP will effectively "coordinate" this population
assumption. -
Goal 3 - Agricultural Lands
This goal does not apply within adopted, acknowledged urban growth boundaries.
Goal 4 - Forest Lands
This goal does not apply within adopted, acknowledged urban growth boundaries.
GoalS - Open Spaces, Scenic and Historic Areas, and Natural Resources
This goal is not applicable to the proposed amendments.
Goal 6 - Air, Water and Land Resources Quality - To maintain and improve
the quality of the air, water and land resources of the state.
This goal is primarily concerned with compliance with federal and state
environmental quality statutes, and how this compliance is achieved as
development proceeds in relationship to air sheds, river basins and land resources.
The Federal Water Pollution Control Act, P.L. 92-500, as amended in 1977,
became known as the Clean Water Act (33 U.S.c. 1251 et seq.). The goal of this
Act was to eliminate the discharge of pollutants into the navigable waters. ORS
468B.035 requires the Oregon Environmental Quality Commission (EQc) to
implement the Federal Water Pollution Control Act. The primary method of
implementation of this Act is through the issuance of a National Pollutant
Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit prior to the discharge of any
wastes into the waters of the state. (ORS 468B.050) Among the "pollutants"
regulated by the EQC are temperature (OAR 340-041-0028) and t0xic substances
(OAR 340-041-0033).

One purpose of the proposed amendments is to ensure that the Metro Plan and the
PFSP accurately reflect regional wastewater system needs as imposed by Federal
and State regulation. Currently, the PFSP states that "... the Regional Wastewater
Treatment Plant has sufficient design capacity to accommodate population

increases and serve all new development at buildout." Recent analyses have
determined that facility improvements are now required to address both dry and
wet weather requirements relating to pollutant 101lds and wastewater flows. The
section in Chapter IV of the PFSP entitled "Long-Term Service Availability
Within Urbanizable Areas" is proposed to be modified to reflect the need for
facility improvements necessary to address dry and wet weather regulatory
requirements.
Goal 7 - Areas Subject to Natural Disasters and Hazards
This goal is not applicable to the proposed amendments.
GoalS - Recreational Needs
This goal is not applicable to the proposed amendments.
Goal 9 - Economic Development - Goal 9 provides, in part, that it is intended
to: "Provide for at least an adequate supply of sites of suitable sizes, types,
locations, and service levels for a variety of industrial and commercial uses
consistent with plan policies." The proposed amendments are consistent with
this objective in that the Metro Plan, the PFSP and the 2004 Wastewater Facilities
Plan must be consistent in order to comply with State discharge permit conditions
that will determine the improvements to the Regional Wastewater System that are
necessary to address new regulatory standards. The improvements are necessary
to allow adequate service and conveyance, treatment, reuse and disposal capacity
to serve new and existing industrial and commercial uses.
Goal 10 - Housing - To provide for the housing needs of citizens of the state.
Goal 10 Planning Guideline 3 states that "[PJlans should provide for the
appropriate type, location and phasing of pubic facilities and services sufficient to
support housing development in areas presently developed or undergoing
development or redevelopment. ..
~
OAR 66(H)08-001 0 requires that "[S]ufficient buildable land shall be designated
on the comprehensive plan map to satisfY housing needs by type and density
range as determined in the housing needs projection." Goal 10 defines buildable
lands as '''.. .lands in urban and urbanizable areas that are suitable, available and
necessary for residential use," 66(H)08-0005( 13), in part, defines land that is
"suitable and available" as land "for which public facilities are planned or to
which public facilities can be made available."
Similar to Goal 9, adequate public facilities are necessary to accomplish the
objectives of this goal and applicable administrative rules (OAR Chapter 660,
Division 008). The purpose of the proposed amendments is to provide the

Goal 11 - Public Facilities and Services - To plan and develop a timely, orderly
and efficient an.angement of public facilities and services to serve as aji'amework
for urban and rural development.
OAR Chapter 660, Division Oil, implements goal II. OAR 66~ll-{)030(1)
requires that the public facility plan identifY the general location of public
facilities projects. In regard to the Metro Plan, the reference to Public Facilities
and Services Plan Map 2a in Finding 6 and Policy G.3 in the proposed
amendments addresses this requirement. In regard to the PFSP, the modification
of the introductory narrative under "Planned Wastewater System Improvements
(Page 28)," the insertion of new Tables 4a and 4b (Page 28), and the modification
of Map 2 and the insertion of new Map 2a, also address this requirement.
OAR 66~11-{)035(1) requires that the public facility plan include a rough cost
estimate for sewer public facility projects identified in the facility plan. In
conformity with this requirement, it is proposed that the PFSP be amended by the
insertion of Table l6a (Inserted following Page 101), which addresses rough cost
estimates and a timing estimate for MWMC Wastewater Treatment and
Collection System Improvements.
OAR 66~II-{)045(3) provides that modifications to projects listed within a
public facility plan may be made without amendment to the public facility plan.
This application proposes to add a new' chapter to the PFSP regarding
amendments to that plan. Proposed Chapter VI incorporates the standards for
amending a public facility plan allowed by OAR 66~11-{)045(3) and adopts an
amendment process.

(b) Adoption of the amendment must not make the Metro Plan internally
incollsistellt.
The proposed changes to the Metro Plan are essentially of a "housekeeping"
nature. They essentially recognize the role of wastewater service provision within
the urban growth boundary by the addition or modification of applicable findings
and add or modifY policy language to clarifY the relationship between the Metro
Plan and the PFSP in regard to capital improvement plans and the commitment to
comply with regulatory requirements. The proposed changes, as presented, will
not create internal inconsistencies within the Metro Plan.
The proposed changes also amend the PFSP to more accurately reflect MWMC's
planned improvement projects for its wastewater treatment system and primary
collection system, to provide rough cost and timing estimates for those
improvements, update narrative information regarding necessary improvements to
the wastewater treatment system and primary collection system, and more clearly
implement the plan modification standards contained in OAR 660-011-0045(3).
The proposed changes to the PFSP do not create any inconsistencies within the
PFSP nor do they create any inconsistencies between the PFSP and the Metro
Plan.

APPENDIX A .
PROPOSED CHANGES TO THE METRO PLAN
G. Public Facilities and Services Element
This Public'Facilities and Services Element provides direction for the future provision of
urban facilities and services to planned land uses within the Metro Plan Plan Boundary
(Plan Boundary). ,
. .-
The availability of public facilities and services is a key factor influencing the location
and density of future development. The public's investment in, and scheduling of, public
facilities and services are a major means of iinplementing the Metro Plan. As the
population Of the Eugene-Springfield area increases and land development pattems
change over time, the demand for urban services also increases and changes. These
changes require that service providers, both public and private, plan for the provision of
services in a coordinated manner, using consistent assumptions and projections for
population and land use.
The policies in this element complement Metro Plan Chapter II-A, Fundamental
Principles, and Chapter II-C, Growth Management. Consistent with the principle of
compact urban growth prescribed in Chapter II, the policies in this element call for future
urban water and wastewater services to be provided exclusively within the urban growth
boundary (UGB). This policy direction is consistent with Statewide Planning Goal 11:
Public Facilities and Services, "To plan and develop a timely, orderly and efficient
arrangement of public facilities and services to serve as a framework for urban and rural
development." On urban lands, new development must be served by at least the
minimum level of key urban services and facilities at the time development is completed
and, ultimately, by a full range of key urban services and facilities. On rural lands within
the Plan Boundary, development must be served by rural levels of service. Users of
facilities and services in rural areas are spread out geographically, resulting in a higher
per-user cost for some services and, often, in an inadequate revenue base to support a
higher level of service in the future. Some urban facilities may be located or managed
outside the urban growth boundary, as allowed by state law, but only to serve
development within the UGB.
Urban facilities and services within the UGB are provided by the City of Eugene, the City
of Springfield, Lane County, Eugene Water & Electric Board (EWEB), the Springfield
Utility Board (SUB), the Metropolitan Wastewater Management Commission (MWMC),
electric cooperatives, and special service districts. Special service districts provide
schools and bus service, and, in some areas outside the cities, they provide water, electric,
fire service or parks and recreation service. This element provides guidelines for special.
service districts in line with the compact urban development fundamental principle of the
Metro Plan.

.-
This element incorporates the findings and policies in the Eugene-Springfield
Metropolitan Area Public Facilities and Services Plan (Public Facilities and Services
Plan), adopted as a refinement to the Metro Plan. The P.ublic Facilities and SerVices
Plan provides guidance for public facilities and services, including planned water,
wastewater, storm water, and electrical facilities, As required by Goal II, the Public
Facilities and Services Plan identifies and shows the general location' of the water,
wastewater, and stonnwater projects needed to serve land within the UGB.' The Public
Facilities and Services Plan also contains this information for electrical facilities,
although not required to.bY law.
The project lists and maps in the Public Facilities and Services Plan are adopted as part
of the Metro Plan. Information in the Public Facilities and Services Plan on project
phasing and costs, and decisions on timing and financing of projects are not part of the
Metro Plan and are controlled solely by the capital improvement programming and
budget processes of individual service providers.
The policies listed provide direction for public and private developmental and program
decision-making regarding urban facilities and services. Development should be
coordinated with the planning, financing, and construction ofkey urban facilities and
services to ensure the efficient use and expansion of these facilities.'
Goals
I. Provide and maintain public facilities and services in an efficient and
environmentally responsible manner.
2. Provide public facilities and services in a manner that encourages orderly and
sequential growth.
Findings and Policies
The findings and policies in this element are organized by the following four topics
related to the provision of urban facilities and services. Policy direction for the full range
of urban facilities and services, ffielOO;;;,; .::astewater serviee, may be found under any of
these topics, although the first topic, Services to Development Within the Urban Growth
Boundary, is further broken down into sub-categories. .

Findings
J. Urban expansion within the UGS is accomplished through in-fill, redevelopment,
and annexation of territory which can be served with a minimum level of key
urban services and facilities. This permits new development to use existing
facilities and services, or those which can be easily extended, minimizing the
public cost of extending urban facilities and services.
2. In accordance with Statewide Planning Goal I I and OAR 660, the Public
Facilities and Services Plan identifies jurisdictional responsibility for the
provision of water, wastewater and storm water, describes respective service areas
and existing and planned water, wastewater, and stormwater facilities, and
contains planned facilities maps for these services. Electric system information
and improvements are included in the Public Facilities and Services Plan,
although not required by state law. Local facility master plans and refinement
plans provide more specific project information.
3. Urban services within the metropolitan UGB are provided by the City of Eugene,
the City of Springfield, Lane County, EWEB, SUB, the MWMC, electric
cooperatives, and special service districts.
4. The Public Facilities and Services Plan finds that almost all areas within the city
limits of Eugene and Springfield are served or can be served in the short-term (0-5
years) with water, wastewater, stormwater, and electric service. Exceptions to
this are stormwater service to portions of the Willow Creek area and southeast
Springfield and full water service at some higher elevations in Eugene's South
Hills. Service to these areas will be available in the long-term. Service to all
areas within city limits are either in a capital improvement plan or can be
extended with development.
5. With the improvements specified in the Public Facilities and Services Plan
project lists, all urbanizable areas within the Eugene-Springfield UGB can be
served with water, wastewater, stormwater, and electric service at the time those
areas are developed. In general, areas outside city limits serviceable in the long-

term are located miar the UGB and in urban reserves, primarily in River Road,
Santa Clara, west Eugene's Willow Creek area, south Springfield, and the
Thurston and Jasper-Natron areas in east Springfield: '
6. OAR 660-011-0005 defines projects that must be included in public facility plan
project lists for water, wastewater, and stormwater. These definitions are shown
in the keys of planned facilities Maps 1,2, 2a. and 3 in the Public Facilities and
Services Plan.
7. In accordance with ORS 195.020 to 080, Eugene, Springfield, Lane County and
,-
special service districts are required to enter into coordination agreements that
define how planning coordination and urban services (water, wastewater, fire,
parks, open space and recreation, and streets, roads and mass transit) will be
provided within the UGB.
8. Large institutional uses; such as universities and hospitals, present complex
planning problems for the metropolitan area due to their location, facility
expansion plans, and continuing housing and parking needs.
9. Duplication of services prevents the most economical distribution of public
facilities and services.
10. As discussed in the Public Facilities and Services Plan, a majority of nodal
development areas proposed in TransPlan are serviceable now or in the short-
term. The City of Eugene's adopted Growth Management Policy #15 states,
"Target publicly-financed infrastructure extensions to support development for
higher densities, in-fill, mixed uses, and nodal development."
Policies
G. I Extend the minimum level and full range of key urban facilities and services in an
orderly and efficient manner consistent with the growth management policies in
Chapter Il-C, relevant policies in this chapter, and other Metro Plan policies.
G.2 Use the planned facilities maps of the Public Facilities and Services Plan to guide
the general location of water, wastewater, stormwater, and electrical projects in
the metropolitan area. Use local facility master plans, refinement plans, caoital
imorovement olans, and ordinances as the guide for detailed planning and project
implementation.
G,3 Modifications and additions to or deletions from the project lists in the Public
Facilities and Services Plan for water, wastewater, and stormwater public facility
projects or significant changes to project location, from that described in the
Public Facilities and Services Plan planned facilities Maps 1,2, 21h and 3,

Convevallce:
Convevance caoacitv and inflow and infiltration (III' ratios are imoortant criteria bv
which to assess the oerformance of a wastewater collection svstem. Conveyance caoacitv
is a function ofadeouate oioe sizing and measures a svstem's ability to move effluent

This chapter describes the'method to be used in the event it becomes necessary or
appropriate to modifY the text, tables or the maps contained in the Public Facilities
Services Plan ("the Plan"). .'
Flexibility of the Plan
Certain public facility project descriptions, location or service area designations will
necessarily change as a result of subsequent design studies, capital improvement
programs, environmental impact studies and changes in potential sources of funding. The
Plan is not designed to either prohibit projects not included in the plan for which
unanticipated funding has been obtained, preclude project specification and location
decisions made according to the National Environmental Policy Act, or subject
administrative and technical changes to the plan to post-acknowledgement 'review or
review by the Land Use Board of Appeals.
For the purposes of this Plan, two types of modifications are identified.
A. Modifications requiring amendment of the Plan,
The following modifications require amendment of the Plan:
1. Amendments, which include those modifications or changes to the list,
location or provider of public facility projects which significantly impact a
public facility project identified in the comprehensive plan, and which do
not qualifY as administrative or technical and environmental changes, as
defined below. Amendments are subject to the administrative procedures
and review and appeal procedures applicable to land use decisions.
2. Adoption of capital improvement program project lists by any service
provider do not require modification of this Plan unless the requirements
of subparagraph I above are met.
B. Modifications permitted without amendment of the Plan.
The following modifications do not require amendment of this Plan:
1. Administrative changes are those modifications to a public facility project
which are minodn nature and do not significantly impact the project's
general description, location, sizing, capacity or other general
characteristic of the project.
2. Technical and environmental changes are those modifications to a public
facility project which are made pursuant to "final engineering" on a project
or those which result from the findings of an Environmental Assessment
or Environmental Impact Statement conducted under regulations
implementing the procedural provisions of the National Environmental
Policy Act of 1996 or any federal or state agency project development
regulations consistent with that Act and its regulations.

Process for making Changes
A. Administrative and Technical or Environmental Changes. Any jurisdiction may
make an administrative or technical and environmental change, as defined herein,
by forwarding to each jurisdiction covered by this Plan, and to the Lane Council
of Governments a copy of the resolution or other final action of the goveming
board of the jurisdiction authorizing the change.
B. Amendments
For purposes of processing amendments, as defined herein, such amendments are
divided into two classes.
a. Type I Amendments include amendments to the text of the Plan, or to a
list, location or provider of public facility projects which significantly
impact a public facility project identified herein, which project serves,
more than one jurisdiction.
b. Type II amendments include amendments to a list, location or provider of
public facility projects which significantly impact a public facility project
identified herein, which project serves only the jurisdiction proposing the
amendment.
C. Processing Amendments
Any of the adopting agencies (Lane County, Eugene, or Springfield) may initiate
an amendment to this plan at any time on their own motion or on behalf of a
citizen,
a. Type I amendments shall be forwarded to the planning commissions of the
respective agencies and, following their recommendation, shall be
considered by the governing boards of all agencies. If a Type I
amendment is not adopted by all agencies, the amendment shall be
referred to MPC for conflict resolution. Subsequent failure by agencies to
adopt an MPC-negotiated proposal shall defeat the proposed amendment.
If an amendment is adopted, all agencies shall adopt identical ordinances
b. Type II amendments shall be forwarded to the Planning Commission of
the initiating agency and, following their recommendation, shall be
considered by the governing board of the initiating agency.

COuNCIL INITIATION OF AMENDMENTS TO THE EUGENE-SPRINGFIELD
METROPOLITAN AREA GENERAL PLAN (METRO PLAN).AND THE PUBLIC
FACILITIES AND SERVICp PLAN {PFSP),
Review Staffs request to inihate amendments to the Metro Plan and PFSP during the
Work Session and initjate the amendment pr?cess during the Re~ar Session, '"
Amendments to the Metro Plan - Public Facilities and Services Element, and to the
PFSP, are needed to: 1) clarify the relationship between, and the types of facilities
projects included in, the PFSP and local capital improvement plans (CIPs); 2) update the
PFSP maps based on new statutes; 3) reflect current conditions and planned regional
wastewater facilities consistent with the MWMC Facilities Master. Plan Update currently'
under way; and 4) resolve inconsistencies among metro-wide olanning documents.
None.
The PFSP includes inventories, condition assessmCf!ts, project lists and policies for key
urban public facilities, including wastewater collection and treatment. Since the
inception of these metro-wide cuu.".uhensive plans, the wastewater facilities included in
the project lists have been limited to pump stations and 24" or larger pipes, Capital .
improvements to the regional wastewater treatment facilities have been addressed only
through the Metropolitan Wastewater Management Commission (MWMC) CIP process.
,.-'
..
'_ _. ~r
...
The PFSP was updated in 200 I as part of the Metro Plan periodic review process. It
contains a condition and capacity assessment of the regional wastewater treatment
facilities based on the information available at that time. The text references two areas
of constrained capacity and the planned work to resolve them. Consistent with past
practice, no wastewater treatment facility projects were included in the PFSP project list.
An updated MWMC Facilities Master Plan, which will update the information in the
PFSP, is nearly complete. The Facilities Master Plan identifies a list of projects that will
need to be constructed over the next ten years in order to comply with the wastewater
disc~ge permit issued in 2002 and with additional peak wet weather flow management
requirements, as well as to provide adequate capacity through 2025.
,. .
-.
.~
Local and regional wastewater program and planning staff, along with legal cOlmsel,
have concluded that several amendments to the Metro Plan and PFSP are advisable. The
amendments would result in updated wastewater system text, and clarification of the
definitions ofPFSP-included projects vs. projects included in local CIPs only, The
amendments also would ensure that all of the metropolitan planning documents provide
a consistent and legal framework for developing both regional wastewater Facilities
Master Plan projects and city infrastructure projects not currently addressed in the PFSP.
'::::l
'V
~
,
The types of Metro Plan and PFSPamendments contemplated are defined by the Metro .::r
Plan as "Type IT' amendments; which must be initiated by one of the three governing
bodies. Expeditious review of the amendments will be critical to timely design and
construction of newly identified regional wastewater facilities, which is slated to begin in
fiscal year 2004-2005. The metropolitan area Planning Directors reviewed this matter on
January 27fb and have tentatively scheduled a Joint Planning Commission public hearing
for April 13, 2004, pending forina! initiation, Development of the amendment language
is currently under way, arW-ll'i1l..~~to the City Council for review and comment
prior to the Planning contblsH~n ~wil'iC hearing. .

1, Modify Chapter III-G, of the Metro Plan, bymodifying the introductory
text to read as follows:
.
Chapter ill-G. Public Facilities and Services Element
G. Public Facilities and Services Element
This Public Facilities and fJervices Element provides direction for the future provision of
urban facilities and services to planned land uses within the Plan boundary. The
availability of puplic facilities and services is a key factor influencing the location and
density .of future development The public's investment in, and scheduling ot: public
facilities and services are a major means of implementing the Metro Plan. As the
population of the Eugene-SpriJigfield area increases and land development patterns
change over time, the demand for urban services also increases and changes. These
changes require that service providers, both public and private, plan for the provision of
services in a coordinated manner, using consistent assumptions and projections for
population and land use.
The policies in this element complement Metro Plan Chapter II-A: Fundamental
Principles and Chapter II-B: Growth Management. Consistent with the principle of
~~!,....."t urban growth prescribed in Chapter II, the policies in this element call for future
urban water and wastewater services to be provided exclusively within the urban growth
boundary. This policy direction is consistent with Statewide Planning Goal 11, "To plan
and devel"p a timely, orderly, and efficient arrangement of public facilities and services
to serve as a framework for urban and rural development" On urban lands, new
development must be served by at least the m;n;mum level of key urban services at the
time development is completed and, ultimately, by a full range of key urban services. On
rural lands within the Plan boundary, development must be served by rural levels of
service. Users offacilities and services in rural areas are spread out geographically,
resulting in a higher per-user cost for some services and, often, in an inadequate revenue
base to support a higher. level of service in the future.' Some urban facilities may be
located or m~n~ged outside the urban growth boundary, as allowed by state law, but only
to serve development within the urban growth boundary.
Urban facilities and services within the urban growth boundary are provided by the City
of Eugene, the City of Springfield, Lane County, Eugene Water & Electric Board
(EWEB), the Springfield Utility Board (SUB), the Metropolitan Wastewater
Management Commission (MWMC), electric covp"....;.;ves, and special service districts.
Special service districts provide schools and bus service, and, in some areas outside the
cities, they provide water, electric, fire service, or parks and ...........;.;on service. This
element provides guidelines for special service districts in line with the compact urban
development fundaniental principle of the Metro Plan.

Ibis element incorporates the findings and policies in the Eugene-Sp1'ingfield
Metropolitan Area Public Facilities and Services Plan (Public Facilities and Services
Plan), adopted as a refinement to the Metro Plan. The Pl}blicFacilities and Services Plan
provides guidance for public facilities and services, including planned water, wastewater, '.
stormwater, and electrical facilities. As required by Goal II, the Public Facilities and
Services Plan identifies and shows the general location3 of the water, wastewater, and"
..;".=..Iater projects needed to serve land within the urban growth boundary.4The Public
Facilities and Services Plan also contains this information for electrical facilities,
although not required t, iJy law. The project lists and maps in the Public Facilities and
Services Plan are ad" ".,\ as part of the Metro Plan. Information in the Public Facilities
and Services Plan on r ject phasing and costs, and decisions on timing and financing of
projects are not part ( .the Metro Plan and are controlled solely by the capital
improvement progran aing and budget processes of individual service providers.
niiselement of the}... 1'0 Plan is organized by the following topics related to the
provision of urban f~ 'Iities and services. Policy direction for the full range of services,
iBefll~""5 ......"""'~"Wa;, ;-s...n~..i.;-may be found under any of these topics, although the first
topic, Services to Development Within the Urban Growth Boundary, is further broken
down into sub-categories.

o Water
o wa.,....~~
o Stormwater
o Electricity
o Schools
o Solid Waste
. Services to Areas Outside the Urban Growth Boundary
. Locating and M~n~gjng Public Facilities Outside the Urban Growth Boundary
. Financing
The applicable findings and policies are contained under each of these topic headings
below.
The policies listed provide direction for public and private developmental and program
decision-making regarding urban facilities and services. Development should be .
coordinated with the planning, financing, and construction of key urban facilities and
. services to ensure the efficient use and "'."....sion of these facilities.
, The cxactlocation of the projects shown on the Public Facilities and Services Plan planned facilities
maps is determined through local ". v_~s.
· Goal II also requires transportation fiIcilities to be included in public fucility plans. In this metropolitan
area, transportation facilities arc addressed in Metro Plan Chapter ill-F and in the Eugene-Springfield
Transportation System Plan (TransPlan). .

MWMC existing infrastructure is monitored for problems that need to be addressed
during operational and maintenince activities, MWMC has ongoing programs to help
plan for and implement equipment replacement and major rehabilitation of existing
systems. With these on going programs used to detect existing problems, the
infrastructure can be maintained and preserved to help extend its useful life for future
years.
In March of2003, MWMC hired CH2M lITLL to evaluate and plan for regional
wastewater capital improvements that will serve the Eugene'Springfield urban growth
boundary into year 2025. MWMC will need to implement the recommended
bp'u lements to meet regulatory requirements based on projected pollution loads and
flows. CH2M HILL as part of its work to evaluate and plan for regional wastewater
improvements has prepared a technical memo related to "Flow and Load Projections"
dated October 7, 2003. This historical and projected information is being used to plan for
needed MWMC capital improvements based on engineering evaluation methods and by
comparing technology options. It is estim"tP.t! that "t'l'ou..:mately $160 million dollars
(in 2004 dollars) are needed for MWMC projects to address regulatory requirements and
growth through year 2025.
Conveyance:
Conveyance capacity and inflow and infiltration (III) ratios are important criteria by
which to assess the performance of a wastewater collection system. Conveyance capacity
is a function of adequate pipe sizing and measures a system's ability to move effluent
efficiently. Inflow and infiltration ratios '''.l'.u~s the amount of stormwater entering a
sewer system through defective pipes and pipe joints, or through the cross connection of
stormwater lines, combined sewers, catch basins, or manhole covers. Such .....;......eous
stormwater entering the wastewater system unnecessarily burdens both conveyance and
';. "";"'ent facilities.
10. Modify Chapter IV. Of the Public Facilities and Services Plan, by
modifying the discussion of wastewater, in the subdivision entitled "Lon-
Tenn Service Availability Within Urbanizable Areas" (presently on page 97)

".
VI. Amendments to the Plan
This chapter describes the method to be used in the event it becomes necessary or
a.l'}" v.I'o:ate to modify the text, tables or the maps contained in the Public Facilities
Services Plan ("the Plan"),
Flexibility of the Plan
Cer:tain public facility project descriptions, location or service area designations will
necessarily change as a result of subsequent design studies, capital improvement
programs, environmental impact studies and changes in potential sources of funding. The
Plan is not designed to either prohibit projects not included in the plan for which
unanticipated funding has been obtained, preclude project specification and location
decisions made according to the National Environmental Policy Act, or subject
"tlm;n;5trative and technical changes to the plan to post-acknowledgement review or
review by the Land Use Board of Appeals.
For the purposes of this Plan, two types of modifications are identified.
A Modifications requiring amendment of the Plan.
The following modifications require amendment of the Plan:
1. Amendments, which include those modifications or changes to the list,
location or provider of public facility projects which sien;fi"~'ltly impact a
public facility project identified in the comprehensive plan, and which do
not qualify as "tlm;n;stJ:ative or technical and environmental. changes, as
defined below, Amendments are subject to the wlTT1;n;"1rative procedures
and review and appeal procedures applicable to land use decisions.
2. Adoption of capital improvement program project lists by any service
provider do not require modification of this Plan unless the requirements
of subparagraph I above are met
B. Modifications permitted without amendment of the Plan.
The following modifications do not require amendment of this Plan: '

1. Administrative changes are those modifications to Ii public facility project
which are minor in nature and do not significantly impact the project's
general description, location, sizing, capacity or other general
characteristic of the project .
2. Technical and environmental changes are those modifications to a public
facility project which are made pursuant to "final engineering" on a project
or those which result from the findings of an Environmental Assessment
or Environmental Impact Statement conducted under regulations

Policy Act Of 1996 or any federal or state agency project development
regulations consistent with that Act and its regulations.
I
Process for making (::hanges
The following process is used to modify the P!an:
A.. Amendments
For purposes of processing amendments, as ~eiined here'
divided into tw9 classes.
.1. Type I Amendments include.JUIIfndments to the text of the Plan,
or to a list, location or provider of public facility projects which
significantly impact a public facility project identified herein,
which project serves more than one jurisdiction.
2. Type II amendments include amendments to a list, location or
provider of public facility projects which significantly impact a
public facility project identified herein, which project serves only
the jurisdiction proposing the amendment
B. Processing Amendments
Any of the adopting agencies (Lane County, Eugene, or Springfield) may initiate an
amendment to this plan at any time on their own motion or on behalf of a citizen.
I. Type I amendments shall be~, "...Jed to the planning commissions of
the respective agencies and, following their recommendation, shall be
considered by the governing boards of all agencies. If a Type I
amendment is not adopted by all agencies, the amendment shall be
referred to MPC for conflict resolution. Subsequent failure by
agencies to adopt an MPC-negotiated p,';pusaJ shall defeat the
proposed amendment If an amendment is adopted, all agencies shall
adopt identical ordinances
2. Type II amendments shall be forwarded to the Planning Commission
