ORDINANCE NO. AN ORDINANCE ESTABLISHING THE S-HJM HISTORIC JOHANSEN- MOODY HOUSE SPECIAL AREA ZONE, AND AMENDING THE EUGENE ZONING MAP. The City Council of the City of Eugene finds that: A. Recognition of historic landmarks enhances the beautification of the city, promotes the city's economic health, and preserves the value of these properties. The regulation of designated historic landmarks provides a means to review changes to a landmark and ensure that historic and architectural values are preserved. The Johansen-Moody House was designated as a City of Eugene Historic Landmark on May 27, 2004. B.~ A Historic Special Area Zone is desirable for the Johansen-Moody House to foster the continued preservation of the property by allowing appropriate uses beyond those permitted in the R-1 Low Density Residential and establishing appropriate development standards.

Copies of such ordinances are to be maintained at the City's Planning & Development Department (Sections 9.3020 and 9.3450 of the Eugene Code, 1971 ("EC")).
