The only planning in RR/SC that the city needs to do is figure out how to convince the residents of those unincorporated neighborhoods to voluntarily join the city.

The first thing they could do is apologize for (1) preventing the county from extending sewers for years - until 100% federal funding went away and (2) then forcing all houses to be hooked up to sewers under the city's auspices - unnecessarily costing every unincorporated homeowner to pay from $4000 to $15,000 to connect to sewers - out of their own pockets. 

The second thing they could do is go out there and sell joining the city to those voters - something they have never done in over 40 years of telling RR/SC what to do.

Of course, Eugene will do neither.

But that will not keep them from trying to remodel the neighborhoods - to make them more like South Eugene - without voter permission.
