e and for buildable land, citing a reduction in the buildable lot inventory. He said the city now has a two-year inventory. The land in question is in the urban growth and service boundary. . The Metro- politan Plan Policy Committee has recommended one version and the property is within the urban service boundary on that recommended version. To Ms. Schue's question about the floodplain, Mr. Saul replied that some of the properties are located in the floodplain and under the ordinances of the City of Eugene, those would be required to have special consideration at the time the building permit is issued. The City Engineer must establish minimum floor heights and they must be one foot over the 100-year flood elevation. Other elevations have to be established for streets and manholes. This was also approved by LCDC. Mr. Giustina, in his rebuttal, noted that the floodplain issue had been considered at the Planning Commission meeting and had been resolved. He emphasized that bringing a piece of property to devel- opment takes many years. He noted that the PUD was not limited to a certain income level. Mr. Thorpe referred to the materials showing that the schools and services were available. In noting that the opposition had suggested not to apply the administrative rule, he said he felt that these were the same people who had pushed for Peterson vs. Klamath Falls. They e did not like the ruling and they were asking for another rule. The rule is adopted and it should be followed, he said. Answering the statement that there are mobile home sites in Delta Pines, he said sale was delayed because of financing. The State has established up to 25 years financing for mobile homes and the land on which they sit at 7.5 percent, and State Veterans' loans has expanded its financing so that they are more readily available to mobile home owners. He asked that the Council apply the criteria and not pay attention to the parade of horribles. He said that the Dessler/Allen property will create recreational property and is close to the Greenway as well. Public hearing was closed. Res. No. 3195--Forwarding recommendation to Boundary Commission for annexation of property located south of Ayres and west of Gilham. Ms. Smith moved, seconded by Mr. Hamel, that the findings supporting the annexation as set forth in Planning Commission staff notes and minutes of June 5, 1979, be adopted by reference thereto and that resolution be adopted. - 8/13/79--7 ~35
