Crime Statistics <br /> <br />The Eugene Police Department compiles crime data for all areas of Eugene. City-wide <br />data for the most serious criminal offenses (homicide, rape, robbery, aggravated assault, <br />and felony drug offenses) indicates that the number of serious crimes per capita is <br />significantly higher within the core of the proposed West Eugene Enterprise Zone <br />boundary, and within areas that are immediately adjacent to the proposed boundary. <br />A detailed mapping of serious crime activity is included in Appendix F-2. <br /> <br />Growth Management and Sustainable Development <br /> <br />Eugene continues to absorb its developable land supply. In the context of Oregon's land <br />use laws, and Eugene's Growth Management Policy, redevelopment, infill development, <br />and brownfield development is strongly encouraged. Because these types of <br />development are characterized by higher costs and greater risk (when compared to <br />greenfield development) the Enterprise Zone tax exemption is considered to be an <br />important redevelopment tool which forwards the community's growth management and <br />sustainability goals. <br /> <br /> <br />
