Speakinq in favor: - Mike Yeager, 1170 Pearl, represented Arabian/Wester. He stated that with approval of this request, they would like to develop low-density residences. They intend to improve the road to the standard right-of-way. The Metro Plan update is the basis for this request and it is consistent with the 1990 Plan. The request was delayed until the Metropolitan Plan update was finished. This request has been evaluated against the updated General Plan and Statewide PlanninaGoals. He feels the request should be approved based on five criteria: relationship to the urban service boundary, availability of puolic services, the need for developable residential land and increased geographical distribution of land, loqical boundaries~ and contiquity. This area has been desianated low- density residential for the past 12 years, was reaffirmed by the Planninq Commission in 1977, and is within the most recent urban qrowth boundary. All public services are either available or imminently available to the property. All of the schools in the area are under capacity. This development will provide direct benefits to Gilham School. In exchanqe for school district dedication of right-of-way to the City, the applicant, at his expense, will install a 24-foot-wide section of road, construct a 6-foot buffer strip, place a 5-foot sidewalk and I-foot strip between the south side of the road and school property, and install a 6-foot fenc~ between the sidewalk and school property for separation between the playqround and the road. There is a need to maintain an adequate supply of developable residential land and a need to provide qeo- graphical distrihution and choice. This will help balance the community by distributinq the growth pattern, allowinq for housina in an area other than the . MINUTES--Euqene City Council October 13, 1980 Paqe 2
