PLANNING STUDIES Urban Reeional Growth Boundary Recommendations Mr. Collins introduced the members of the City/County Urban Regional Boundary Committee and Mr. Sawyer explained the display map, including what the various lines represented and the location of the Committee's recommended Urban Growth Area Boundary . Craig Miller (County Representative to the CCURB Committee) explained his position on excluding the Four Seasons Ranch area including the point that the UGA does not need this area to meet the population projection. He also doubts the sewer system would . be extended up the east bank of Morse Creek ravine. Commissioner Leonard initiated a general discussion on the exclusion of the Black Diamond area from the UGA. Reasons for its exclusion included the area's topography, the existing zoning, its water district, service extensions and resident opinion. Don Corson (County Representative to the CCURB Committee) presented the Committee's minority opinion that the eastern boundary should go further east and . . . include all of the Four Seasons Ranch area and the area of the new theater in order to control the growth that is already occurring out there. Staff reviewed the proposed Urban Growth Principles with discussion regarding County rezoning outside of the UGA, its adoption procedures and how it can be changed in the future. Additional discussion centered on a special Planning Commission Meeting on June 5th to hold a public hearing and the availability of this material to the public prior to the special meeting. Margaret Crawford (City Representative to the CCURB Committee) stated that she urges the Planning Commission to hold a public hearing on this issue and that it is important to keep the spirit of the State's Growth Management Act in mind when determining the location of the UGA line. Pat Downie (City Representative to the CCURB Committee) pointed out that the spirit of the Act had been very important to him in voting for the Committee's recommendation and asked what the future holds for this Committee? Fran Burch (City Representative to the CCURB Committee) stated she agreed with the minority opinion that the eastern boundary should go out to the theater and include the Four Seasons Ranch area. Dave Stalheim (County Planning Manager) informed the Commission that the County will be looking for a "proposal" for the UGA and that the line need not be extremely detailed at this point and that it may in fact be rather general regarding its exact lot by lot location. The Planning Commission decided to hold a special meeting on June 5, 1991 for the purpose of conducting a public hearing and deciding on a recommendation to the City Council regarding the UGA and the Urban Growth Principles. Chairman Gruver then stated that after the June 5th meeting, the Committee may have a little more direction with regards to its future. V.
