" acres. There is no clear understanding of what comparable offices mignt be, but they have tried to work with them. . Mayor Keller asked where the Wildish property is located. Mr. Gleason responded it is a quarter mile to the north of this. Don Allen indicated that Hillview Lane #1 is not City land but it could be County or a private dedication. The City would only take it over if it were annexed and up to standards. If it were an arterial, it could be taken. If it is acquired while it is unimproved, the improvements would be assessed to the property owners. Mr. Lindberg asked if the Wildish problem is solved. Mr. Farah responded that it is not. Mr. Gleason added that it is not in the purvey of this study, but their site is impacted by commercial designations in the study. Mr. Lindberg noted that he is concerned about Kinney Loop designation of RA since it is now proposed for R-2/10 zoning. He would prefer RA zoning being retained, since it is a very low-income area. Many of the residents there have attempted self-reliance programs such as raising chickens. R-2/10 zoning would not permit these activities. He hopes they can be accommodated. Mr. Jacobson stated that the Planning staff has received a wide variety of responses from the owners in that area, and the majority have indicated that they do not want to be annexed. The recommendation would be R-2/10 as a maximum zoning density, if the majority of the residents desired it. Mr. Lindberg asked if the residents could continue with RA zoning. Mr. Jacqbson responded that they could. Ms. Wooten stated that she was involved in discussion with this plan for a long time and feels this is the best compromise that could be reached to develop agricultural land within city limits~ She is concerned, however, about the cost . of proposed housing. low-income people are being displaced and building new units should be a high consideration. Mr. Hamel left the meeting. , Ms. Miller expressed thanks for those who worked to prevent misuse of agri- cul tura 1 1 ands. Overall, the Eugene residents should appreciate the work that has been done. Mayor Keller noted agreement. Mr. Lindberg noted agreement and indicated that he is still concerned about Kinney Loop; but since they were outside the city limits, he was told they were not consulted. Mr. Jacobson responded that on several occasions, letters were sent to all property owners and res i dent s . Mr. Saul attended a meeting of residents on Kinney Loop, and they were contacted by the consultant, which is noted on page 28 of the plan. Ms. Wooten agreed. Res.
