City of Eugene Goal 5,' Inventory and Water Resources Conservation Plan, 2005 Analysis by Satre Associates, Pc. Current Excess 422 114 18 86 640 Proposal Impact* -7 1 o 6 o The change from Low Density Residential to Medium Density Residential is minor and the amount of land involved in this application is small; it is not necessary to engage in an extensive analysis of the impacts on the assets Goal 10 protects. Moreover, the proposed amendment allows more intensive residential development in an area that is underserved by building types that are allowed within the Medium Density Residential designation. The Residential Land" and Housing Study estimations of the long ternl projected land needs, and the determination that there is an adequate inventory, serve to demonstrate that the minimum needs have been met. The proposal adds to the supply of Medium Density Residential and Commercial inventories Vvithout significantly affecting the supply of Low Density Residential land. In summary, based on the excess supply of residential land and the relatively small amonnt of acreage involved in this application, our analysis finds that the applicant's plan anlendmcnt proposal meets the requirements of statewide planning Goal 10, and supports applicable adopted policies.
