I ... the local bond issue has provided necessary local funding. Mr. Saul stated that the contemplated sewer development would be . available to these areas in the years 1980 and 1981 (page 12). Several properties (Area 4) along Country Club Road have signed annexation agreements in exchange for city water. Mr. Saul noted five properties singled out for discussion: 1) the KEED radio station property--any zoning of that property has been tabled by the Planning Commission for six months; 2) the ,gravel pond or Alltucker property--staff recommended zoning C-2/PD. The Planning Commission disagreed and recommended R-2/PD; 3) Island Area No. 3, or the Holemar property--the owners indicated they did not wish commercial zoning at this time because it would increase the assessed value of the property; 4) the Chase property or the deMartini property--it was zoned commercial by the County. The Planning Commission recommended zoning it RP; 5) the Oscar Krumdieck property along Country Club Road--it was zoned RP in the County. The Planning Commission is recommending RG zoning (materi- als distributed). The Country Club is classified by the County as open space, and the Planning Commission recommendation would maintain that status. In calling for ex parte contacts or conflicts of interest, Ms. Smith declared so on Area No.4. Staff notes and minutes were entered into the record. Public hearing was opened on all three areas. Mr. Walter deMartini, 1313 Lincoln Street, president of Kendall - Ford" disagreed with what he considered an arbitrary rezoning of one section of the Chase property. He reviewed the background which indicated the Chase property was zoned by the County December 10, 1968, from AGT to C-3X with architectural control and site plan approval for 17 acres. At the time of the zoning, the County recommended that there be joint consultation with the City. When sewers were available, the property would go into the City. Mr. deMartini noted the dedication of land along Country Club Road and the lengthy litigation leading to an Oregon Supreme Court decision that forced Kendall Ford to lease 10 acres in the Valley River area. He said that when sewers go in, Kendall Ford will be paying the inflated dollar price per foot for eight-inch line for over 2,600 feet along Country Club Road of the Chase property and over 600 feet of Goodpasture Island Road at the Valley River site. He felt that the current zoning change was not morally correct, and that the County agreement should be binding. James V. Bernhard, 3755 Donald, said they h~ve worked with the owner for 10 years on Area No.4, the Chase property. The owner would like to develop the entire 22 acres, and there is a need for large land areas such as this. Businesses moving to Eugene are interested in large sites with local amenities.
