Attachment E S-HJM Historic Johansen-Moody House Special Area Zone 9.3650 Purpose of S-HJM Historic Johansen-Mood¥ House Special Area Zone. The Johansen-Moody House, located at 370 River Road, is classified as a City of Eugene Historic Landmark according to the approval issued by the Historic Review Board on May 27, 2004. This Special Area Zone (SAZ) is intended to provide for thc following purposes: (1) To afford the historic resource special treatment and protection so that the uses permitted and restrictions imposed upon it will preserve and allow rehabilitation of the building's character defining architectural features as an excellent example of the Vernacular Gothic architectural style, and association with people important to Eugene's past (Niels Johansen, one of Eugene's first Danish immigrants). 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. (2) The purpose of Historic Special Area Zones is to permit, after appropriate review, the use of historically significant buildings and sites for a range of uses not otherwise allowed together in one of the standing zoning districts, which often contain uses that are inappropriate while omitting uses that are appropriate to specific historic buildings and sites. The purpose of the Historic SAZ is to preserve these historic resources where their maintenance and productive use would not otherwise be economically practical, and where a standard zoning classification would not be appropriate. (3) The Johansen-Moody House was constructed in 1901 as part of an early Danish settlement along River Road (The Old Territorial Highway). The Historic Special Area Zone will foster the continued preservation of the house by allowing its use as an antique store and tea room, and by establishing appropriate development standards. 9.3655 S-HJM Historic Johansen-Moody House Special Area Zone Siting Requirements.
