Capacity Method 2: Larger LDR Parcels Capacity Method 2 requires an estimate of the amount of vacant land in gross acres within the current UGB that fall within the applicable categories (e.g., no constraints such as greater than 30% slope or protected land is removed). The City's BLI provides this information.57 Table 42 shows vacant residential land for areas subject to Capacity Method 2. Table 42.

Table 43 shows average density assumptions for dwelling units per gross acre, based on average densities achieved in subdivision plats in the south hills within the UGB over the 2001 to 2012 period.
