assessor data and the Lane County land use code system, lands defined as committed include the following: o Government Property (e.g. city, county, state, federal) o City, County and State Parks o School District Property (e.g. 4J and Bethel) o Transportation Rights -of -Way (e.g. streets, rail) o Cemeteries o Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) easements • Vacant land is land suitable for development that is identified with a "vacant" land use code in the regional land use code system or has insignificant improvements of less than $1,000 in 2012 assessed value.' • Developed land is identified with a "developed" type of land use code in the regional land use classification system or with significant improvements of at least $1,000 in 2012 assessed value. Developed land may also have redevelopment potential and, as discussed below, additional capacity if the land is larger. The land model results' by land type are as follows: Protected & Committed Land • Lands can be classified as committed or protected, or both (e.g. government owned land with protected wetlands) and as such these classes are not mutually exclusive and are reported on as one combined category.' • Additionally, analysis was done after the land model was run to address government surplus land. Some government owned land has been officially designated as surplus land, meaning it is anticipated for disposal and will not be committed to public use in the future. Since these sites10 are still in public ownership, the model initially classifies them as committed. To correct this, for confirmed surplus sites the public ownership characteristic in the model is overridden so that the land type is assigned as if it were in private ownership. This did not result in additional capacity for residential as many of these sites are fully developed. • The combined committed and protected acres is 13,880 acres for all of the plan designations in the UGB which equates to approximately 40% of Eugene's 34,503 acres. The combined ' The land model was run in August of 2012. To make the 2012 land supply as accurate as possible, on May 20, 2013 a final sweep was conducted to remove any vacant sites that had been assigned an address point in the regional GIS system as of that date. An address point is typically applied to a property in the regional GIS system when a building permit is submitted. s For the purposes of this Study, acreage totals from the model are usually rounded to the closest whole number unless otherwise necessary to provide one decimal. ' When land is both committed and protected, the default is to identify that portion of land as committed. 10 See the Technical Support portion of the public record for sites.
