FOOD For Lane County is having a food drive at several locations on March 2nd. The Santa Clara Community Organization is hosting at two of those locations from 10 am – 2 pm. The SCCO will have volunteers ready to receive donations at both locations.
Fred Meyer on Division Avenue
The Irving Grange 1101 Irvington Drive (Boy Scouts from Troop 182 will help you unload at the grange so you don’t even have to leave your car)
The River Road-Santa Clara neighborhood planning process has been a collaborative effort among community members, River Road Community Organization (RRCO), Santa Clara Community Organization (SCCO), City of Eugene, Lane County, and other stakeholders throughout both neighborhoods.
After five phases and countless volunteer and staff hours, an adoption package was recommended by the Community Advisory Committee, as well as both Eugene and Lane County Planning Commissions. The adoption package will now be considered by the Eugene City Council and Lane County Board of Commissioners as the final decision-makers. Eugene and Lane County are considering amendments to the Eugene-Springfield Metropolitan Area General Plan (Metro Plan) to adopt the River Road-Santa Clara Neighborhood Plan. Eugene is also considering neighborhood-specific land use code amendments within the River Road and Santa Clara neighborhood boundaries (these changes would only apply to properties within city limits).
For more information, including how to submit testimony and links to to draft plan, read the full neighborhood plan article here. (In case you run into a broken link to the draft plan, here is the working link)
