Changes the fknctional ClaSSification of an existing or ptanned transportation faciti~; Changes standards implementing a functional classification system; AllOws types or levels qf land Uses which would result in levels of'travel or access which are inconsistent with the fi~nctional Class~catiOn of a transportation facili~; or Would re&ce the performance stan&rds of the f~cili~, bebw the minimum acceptable level i&nt~ed in the TSP. The Proposed amendmems will not significantly affbct any transpOnati°n faciiky. The apPliCati°n °f the ND N°dal Devel°pment Me~° plan d~agrm des~ati°n w~ll not result irt any change to the underlying Metro ptan dia~am designation. The appliCatiOn of the fl-ID Nodal DeveloPment overlaY zone witl not change ~e base zone. Although minkrmm residential density reqtfiremems for ~eas zoned/ND exceed the mi~mum density established for the base zonesi they are belOW the maxknum density allowed in the base zones~ The/ND overlay zone prohibition of several new auto.oriented uses will limk the range of uses in commemial and ~ndus~al base zones~ but Mll still provide a -wide range of allowed cOn~nercial and industrial uses. On the TransPtan map of"Federally Designated Roadway Functional Classification, Eugene~ Spnngfie d Metro ~ea, R3ver Road is classified as a Principal ~efial and in the Eugene A~er~al and COllector Street Ptan~ River ROad is classified ~ a Maj°r ~eriaL The remaipAng sAeet are ~demified as local streets. No change in the ~ction~ claSSification of these streets w~ll result from this ~en~em. In addition, no changes are proposed to the standards which imPlement the funCtional classification system. In deve!oping TransPlan~ the Lane Council of Governments (LCOC£) conducted modeling using 29 priority nodes, with node boundaries as sho~ on the map of Potential Nodal Development Areas in A of TransPlan. Since the Eugene City Council approved boundary adjus~ ~ents m several nodes, and added one high-priority node that was not shown on the TransP1an map, the Oregon Dep~ment of Transpo~ation funded an 'update of model data to reflecI the revised nodal area boundaries as part of Eugene~ s 200 t-2003 Transportation and Gro~4~ (TGM) grant for nodal development implementation. The updated model data is based on 30 priority nodes, adding the one high-priority node in Eugene that was not shown on the TransPtan map. Model data was provided by LCOG comparing the 2015 PM peak trips for base case land use wSth nodal development land use~ using the TranSPlan projects network. Inco~orating the 10% vehicle trip reduction allowed by the Transportation Plarming Rule for nodal development areas, the data shows just under 45 additional northbound PM pe~ trips between Northwest Expressway and Park Avenue and just under 30 additional southbound PM peak trips with the nodal development land use than with base case land use. This ~s not a large enough increase to reduce the level of service on this segment of RAver Road. Based on the findings above and these model results, the proposed amendments to apply the ND
