Ms. Dennis felt Council had wanted to stay away from a specific number and she <br /> recommended leaving the wording as is. <br /> <br /> Program 11.2. Land Use Element <br /> <br /> Ms. Mohr asked why the City would extend services into a non-urban or non-residential <br /> <br /> Mr. Roush believed the idea might be that the City would extend certain urban services <br /> for recreational uses, e.g. Shadow Cliffs. The question raised with respect to the term "non- <br /> urban" refers to a light industrial or warehouse use, which is non-residential, but may not fall <br /> under the definition of non-urban. In that case, would the City be interested in changing non- <br /> urban to non-residential, so the opportunity of extending certain services would be greater than <br /> simply saying non-urban. That is a policy choice of the Council. <br /> <br /> Ms. Mohr asked if the area were currently annexed. If not, the City would be extending <br /> services beyond the city limits. <br /> <br /> Mr. Rasmussen indicated the area eventually would be annexed. The original purpose <br /> of the exception was so a permanent urban growth boundary line would not be established in the <br />__ quarry land area until after a major comprehensive study of the area. We would not know <br /> where the line would go until after a study. The subcommittees, the Steering Committee and <br /> the Planning Commission recommended that before land uses and the urban growth boundary <br /> line be adopted that the area should be studied at a future comprehensive General Plan Update <br /> which may be ten years in the future. The intent was to put the decision off until then. <br /> <br /> Mr. Tarver stated that if the urban growth boundary is put on the ballot and approved <br /> by the voters, to extend it to there would have to be another vote. <br /> <br /> Mr. Roush agreed that was true for the boundary itself. What is at issue now is to allow <br /> certain urban services to be extended beyond the urban growth boundary under limited <br /> circumstances. Staff is asking for clarification with respect to the reclaimed land and whether <br /> to allow services for non-urban uses, which is more restrictive than non-residential. <br /> <br /> Mr. Tarver supported the term non-urban development. <br /> <br /> Ms. Mohr felt this area is inconsistent with the rest of the General Plan. Because the <br /> uses for the area are unknown, the urban limit boundary will not be set until the study is done. <br /> <br /> Mr. Rasmussen indicated the urban growth boundary would be established now, but in <br /> the future the area is to be studied and as part of the study there will be consideration as to <br /> whether to change the location of the UGB. <br /> <br /> 08/06/96 -24- <br /> <br /> <br />
