infrastructure facility projects that are planned to occur within the 20 -year planning period to address stormwater, wastewater and fire needs, totaling a need for just over 22 acres of residential land inside the UGB3. The majority of the 22 acre needed is for stormwater facilities (21 acres), specifically for 18 acres on Low Density Residential land and 3 acres on Medium Density Residential land, the balance being 1.5 acres for fire stations. Note that specific utility needs that might occur within the right-of-way of new development (e.g. roads, utility lines) are already accounted for in the density assumptions used to determine the capacity of the buildable lands inventory and are therefore not included in this estimate.' o The University of Oregon anticipates no or an insignificant amount of student growth for the next 20 years .5 The University also has a goal of providing on -campus housing for 25% of its underclassmen. To that end, the University plans to add 1,250 additional beds during the planning period which can be accommodated on the existing campus.' The University also forecasts a need for 45 acres of land adjacent to the main campus and the Autzen Stadium complex for non-residential uses. Some lands near these two locations that are suitable for university expansion are currently in the High Density Residential plan designation. Based on how much land around these areas is designated High Density Residential, the need is estimated to be 30 acres of High Density Residential land (the other 15 acres is from non-residential plan designations).' o Lane County, EWEB, and the University of Oregon indicated that they do not have land that they classify as surplus land at this time.$ 3 Smaller public facility needs were identified through review of the following: the City of Eugene stormwater basin plans for stormwater, the 2013 Capital Improvement Projects list for buildings and transportation, the Wastewater Master Plan and Public Facilities Plan for wastewater, the 2010-2015 Capital Improvement Projects list for fire stations, and November 2011 correspondence with Brad Taylor, Water Planning Supervisor from the Eugene Water and Electric Board for water. ' Specifically, the employment density assumptions used in the buildable lands analysis are adjusted to account for road and utility needs that would occur within the right-of-way of development; e.g. a net -to -gross conversion factor is applied to the density assumption. 5 This information was provided by JP Monroe, Director of Institutional Research at the University of Oregon in an interview on May 9, 2013. 6 This was provided by Chris Ramey, University Architect and Associate Vice President of Campus Planning and Real Estate at the University of Oregon in an interview on May 8, 2013, and the University of Oregon Residential Hall Modernization Study, 2011, pages 6 and 7. ' This information was provided by Chris Ramey, University Architect and Associate Vice President of Campus Planning and Real Estate at the University of Oregon in an interview on May 8, 2013. No distinction was made regarding whether the land needed is developed or vacant because in either scenario, the University use would be displacing either existing or future capacity that needs to be accounted for. 8 City staff asked staff at public agencies in Eugene about surplus land. Chris Ramey, Associate Vice President at the University of Oregon, said that the University does not expect to have surplus land over the 20 -year planning period. EWEB staff indicate that the agency does not currently have land that is designated as surplus. Staff at Lane County indicate that the County does not currently have plans to surplus County properties, including the Lane County Fairgrounds. Residential Land Supply Study I Final Part III — Page 3
