July Project Update
Curious about what's going on with Urban Growth Strategies? Staff will be creating regular updates that provide relevant project information, milestones, and upcoming opportunities for engagement. For July 2024, project updates include:
- Centers and Climate-Friendly Areas (CFA): The City’s community vision calls for focusing future growth and investment in and near mixed-use centers to increase access to essential goods and services for all residents. Climate-Friendly Areas are a type of center, directed by state administrative rules.
- Centers Survey and Mapping Activity: To inform planning for Centers and Climate-Friendly Areas, the Planning Division designed and released a community-wide online survey and interactive mapping activity. Both engagement opportunities ask respondents about their ability to access goods and services and about the types of goods and services they wish they had within a short trip from home.
- Housing and Urban Growth Community Open House: On Wednesday, June 5, 2024, the City of Eugene hosted a community open house at the Farmer’s Market Pavilion. During the event, nearly 150 community members had the opportunity to share their thoughts on community needs and priorities for housing, mixed-use centers, future urban growth, and other ongoing City projects.
- Urban Growth Strategies in the Community: In June and July, the City of Eugene’s Planning Division participated in events hosted by Bethel, Far West, and Harlow neighbors, HIV Alliance, AARP, Noche Cultural, and Pride at Scobert Gardens.
- Recent and Upcoming Public Meetings: Staff recently presented on a variety of Urban Growth Strategies work to a joint meeting of the Eugene Planning Commission and City Council, Lane County Planning Commission, and Envision Eugene Technical Advisory Committee.
