H. This Agreement addresses the property owner’s concerns and furthers the stated purposes of the S-C Chambers Special Area Zone (EC 9.3050). Adding a compatible house in the existing 50 foot wide gap will specifically serve the following purposes stated in EC 9.3050: (1) Protect and maintain healthy existing neighborhoods by ensuring compatible design for infill development in terms of the structure’s mass, scale, orientation and setback to complement patterns in the existing neighborhood. (2) Promote a general increase in density with a mix of multi-family and single family residential development that contributes positively to the neighborhood pattern of single-family detached dwellings. (5) Establish, strengthen, and maintain a high quality urban environment with compatible commercial, residential and industrial use. (6) Create a pedestrian friendly environment. th I. By filling the existing gap on West 10 Avenue with residential development that advances the desired characteristics in Paragraph H, the streetscape will be more compatible with the neighborhood, and problems with illegal use of the vacant area (e.g., for camping and fires) will be eliminated. The additional “eyes on the street” and comings-and-goings by occupants of a street-oriented, single-family home will contribute to the safety of the surrounding area and to the pedestrian appeal of the section of the sidewalk that currently passes the vacant area. AGREEMENT Now, therefore, in consideration of the foregoing Recitals, which by this reference are incorporated herein as if set forth in full, and of the mutual covenants, conditions and obligations on the part of each party to be kept and performed, it is hereby agreed as follows: 1. The parties will jointly recommend to the Eugene City Council that it waive and/or modify the following provisions of EC 9.3065 S-C Chambers Special Area Zone Development Standards Applicable in the S-C/R-2 Subarea: 1.1 EC 9.3065(3)(a)1.c., which specifies the maximum density standards for lots with street access as: “Three dwelling units if the lot area is greater than 9,200 square feet.” be modified for Claimant’s property to allow the existing four dwelling units and one additional, detached dwelling unit, which must be located entirely within 60 feet of the front lot line. 1.2 EC 9.3065(3)(j), Vehicle Use Area, which specifies that: “The total vehicle use area shall not exceed 20 percent of the lot size.” be modified for Claimant’s property to allow the existing 1,820 square feet of vehicle use area that provides access and parking for the existing four dwelling units, and one additional driveway to serve the additional detached dwelling unit permitted herein.
