Councilor Lindberg said his preference was to move in that direction. He said he believed industrial traffic would be greatest during the rush hours, thereby e glutting West 11th Avenue far beyond its current state, while the impact of commercial traffic would be dispersed over the entire working day. He asked for some staff response on this issue, stating that it might be appropriate to either redesign the zone change or to move in the direction of conditional use. Mr. Farah said he agreed with Mr. Thwing, based on the diagram and lot sizing. He said the council and commission took action one and one-half years ago to modify the 1-2 zoning to allow a variety of uses and that the 1-2 district still allowed commercial sales activities to occur in conjunction with wholesale manufacturing facility. He said that this type of activity might generate traffic throughout the day more than a larger parcel located in the interior of the West Eugene Industrial Area. He said the proximity of the small parcels and the high-volume traffic would confirm Mr. Thwing's comments. Councilor Hansen questioned if the should in Section 9 of the findings of fact meant that a site review shall be applied. Mr. Gleason responded that site review procedures would be applied if the council adopted the Planning Commission recommendation.
