EWEB RIVERFRONT MASTER PLAN <br />EUGENE, OREGON <br />RELEVANCE <br />• Thorough knowledge of public concept <br />and community needs <br />The EWEB Riverfront Master Plan was one of the <br />most challenging and complex planning projects <br />in Eugene’s recent history. It involved engaging <br />and leading the community to a compelling vision <br />for the sole opportunity to connect downtown <br />Eugene to the Willamette River and redevelop an <br />iconic property. The project achieved consensus <br />approval from a diverse citizen advisory team, <br />overwhelming support from the public, and was <br />unanimously approved by the EWEB Board of <br />Commissioners in June 2010. <br />Establishing a new vision for the riverfront <br />property owned by Eugene’s public utility was the <br />final step in a decades-long process to renew the <br />connection between Downtown Eugene and the <br />Willamette River. The master plan for this 27-acre <br />property models sustainable redevelopment in a <br />variety of ways: it creates 8 acres of new riverfront <br />open space, requires LEED certification for all new <br />construction, improves public access and the trail <br />system, establishes and enhances habitat, and <br />proposes numerous ways to teach about our river, <br />our history and our city. <br />Size 27 acres <br />Role John Rowell, Greg Brokaw <br /> Lead Planners <br /> Dean Pape <br /> Community Advisory Committee <br />Timeline Completion 2010 <br />9 APRIL 2019 | PAGE 39 <br />CITY OF EUGENE | STEAM PLANT REDEVELOPMENT DESIGN PROPOSAL <br />EXHIBITS <br />Ap <br />r <br />i <br />l <br /> <br />24 <br />, <br /> <br />20 <br />1 <br />9 <br />, <br /> <br />Wo <br />r <br />k <br /> <br />Se <br />s <br />s <br />i <br />o <br />n <br /> <br />- <br />It <br />e <br />m <br /> <br />1
