LOWE Allen D <br /> <br />From: LOWE Allen D <br />Sent: Monday, February 23, 2004 2:24 PM <br />To: TORREY Jim D; TAYLOR Dennis M; ROSE Lynda L <br />Cc: CARLSON Jim R <br />Subject: UO Testimony on East Campus Ordinance <br /> <br />This is a response to Jim Carlson's phone message asking for summary of UO request that you'll get at hearing tonight. <br />UO submitted letter asking that 4 revisions be made to the adopting ordinance. <br /> <br />1. Remove the phrase "university-owned office uses and similar support functions" from the Conditional Use Policy <br />on page 3, item 6(a), page 10 item 6(a), and page 26 item (f)(1) of the ordinance. NOTE: THIS CORRECTION HAS <br />ALREADY BEEN MADE TO THE ORDINANCE IN THE COUNCIL PACKET. THEIR REQUEST IS UNNECESSARY. <br /> <br />2. Revise the ordinance text on page 5, iitem (e) to read as follows: "This Special Area Study contains select policies <br />from the University of Oregon 2003 East Campus development policy, affecting land owned by the University. These <br />policies are contained in the land use section of this Special Area Study. The university policies not adopted into this SAS <br />will guide the University in its planning and decision making regarding public facilities and services in the east campus <br />area." STAFF SUPPORTS THE SUGGESTED CHANGE. <br /> <br />3. Revise Ordinance on page 3, policy 8 by inserting a comma as follows: "In an effort to rmaintain the Fairmount <br />Neighborhood's character, the University shall consider contributing ranked historic houses that must be moved from other <br />areas within the state-approved University lands due to development plans for infill projects, or to replace a non- <br />contributing house in the University-owned Low Density Residential area, if feasible." STAFF SUPPORTS THE <br />SUGGESTED CHANGE. <br /> <br />4. Revise Ordinance on page 4, policy 9 by replacing the word "shall" with the word "should" as follows: "With the <br />~xception of alleys, vacations of streets within the state-approved University East Campus boundary should not be <br />permitted, unless the applicant, at his or her expense, provides to the City a local street connection study that <br />demonstrates how the proposed street system remaining after such vacation meets the intent of tEugene Code street <br />connectivity provisions and that such vacation will not increase traffic volumes on local residential streets." STAFF <br />SUPPORTS THE SUGGESTED CHANGE. <br /> <br />UO letter can be seen on City Council Agenda pages 129 to 131. <br /> <br />Allen L we <br />City of Eugene Planning <br />(541) 682-5113 <br /> <br /> City Council Agenda page 274 <br /> <br /> <br />
