These include the responses collected through all forms of outreach, including verbal surveys, the online questionnaire, small group discussions, and the large community forums in June 2018. See Appendix B for a full version of the questionnaire. Following the tallied, overall responses are the responses broken down by various subgroups to see where they either differ or match the overall responses. For each question, participants were invited to create their own scenario instead of choosing one of the options in the questionnaire. Many respondents also provided comments along with their questionnaire responses. Themes within these open-ended responses are included with the overall results. Land Use Participants were asked the following Land Use question: In the next 20 years, approximately 40,000 people will be moving to Eugene. Although it is difficult to predict the real estate market, the River Road and Santa Clara neighborhoods could absorb more than 4,000 of those new residents. How are we going to provide housing for the people who are anticipated to move into River Road and Santa Clara over the next 20 years? Neighbors value both agricultural land and affordable housing. The following scenarios address these values by increasing density in the urban area, also known as the urban growth boundary. Many respondents provided additional comments or created their own scenario instead of choosing one of the scenarios provided. Below are key themes of the open-ended input: Concern over building heights Incentivizing or reducing barriers for accessory dwelling units 27% 26% 47% Overall Responses: Land Use A: Dispersed throughout neighborhoods B: Concentrated along River Road C: Concentrated along major streets November 19, 2018, Work Session – Item 2
