M I NUT E S EUGENE CITY COUNCIL - June 12, 1978 Regular meeting of the City Council of the City of Eugene, Oregon, was called to order by His Honor Mayor Gus Keller, June 12, 1978, 7:30 p.m., in the Council Chamber, with the following Councilors present: D.

Treehouse PUD Appeal from Hearings Official Approval Approved by Hearings Official April 18, 1978. Manager said the PUD was granted preliminary approval by Hearings Official January 1978. Subsequently, it was appealed to the Council who remanded the proposed development back to the Hearings Official for further consideration of detailed geological reports. The prope rty i s located in the area east of Blanton Road, south of 38th Avenue, south of 35th Avenue, and southwest of Monroe Street. The request is for preliminary approval of a residential planned unit development consisting of 122 dwellings on approximately 40 acres in an RA Suburban Residential District. The applicant is Michael Safley. e Jim Saul, Planner, said the prinCipal concern at the time the Council heard the first appeal in February was absence of a complete geolog- ical report submitted in conjunction with the preliminary approval. City Council decided at its February meeting that preliminary approval should not be granted until a detailed geological report on the site had been conducted. That information has been submitted and reviewed by the City staff. Based on the new geological report, the Hearings Official did grant preliminary approval at the April 18 hearing. The geological report has been reviewed by the City Engineers and the Superintendent of Building Inspection. Mr. Saul noted the report did cover the entire site; it did affirm the information indicating the site was developable as proposed; it provided satisfactory informa- tion to allow detailed information for engineering on the site, i.e., storm sewers; and it included detailed design recommendations adequate for final engineering design. However, he noted it was subject to three conditions as outlined under Nos. 7,8, and 9 in the Hearings Official decision. He directed Council's attention to the Hearings Official's lengthy and detailed recommendations on Pages 4-6 on the written decision. - 6/12/78--1 lflfl - ~
