measures for the existing single-family neighborhoods surrounding the University of Oregon (Amazon, <br />Fairmount and South University), which have in recent years experienced a substantial increase in <br />unforeseen housing development associated with the skyrocketing demand for private student housing <br />in the proximity of the university. Residents of those neighborhoods supported this regulation as a way <br />to help make the new development less impactful on the livability of the neighborhood. Livability is an <br />important Statewide Planning Goal 14 concept, along with accommodating the need for compact <br />development. <br />As part of Envision Eugene, the city is committed to completing area planning for the university area <br />neighborhoods, including consideration of specific design standards for housing to addresses impacts <br />from proximity to the University of Oregon. The interim protection measures are intended to limit <br />further negative impacts until the area planning process is completed. It is expected that these interim <br />measures will be replaced by a more comprehensive set of development and design standards <br />established as part of the area planning effort. <br />Parking Requirements <br />9.2751 Special Development Standards for Table 9.2750. <br />(17)Secondary Dwellings in R-1. <br />(c)Area-Specific Secondary Dwelling Standards. The following standards <br />apply to all new attached or detached secondary dwellings in the R-1 <br />zone within the city-recognized boundaries of Amazon Neighbors, <br />Fairmount Neighbors and South University Neighborhood Association: <br />15. Parking. For the primary dwelling, there shall be a minimum of <br />one and a maximum of two parking spaces on the lot. There shall <br />be one additional parking space on the lot for the exclusive use for <br />the occupants and guests of the secondary dwelling. <br />9.6410 Motor Vehicle Parking Standards. <br />Table 9.6410 Required Off-Street <br />Motor Vehicle Parking <br />Uses Minimum Number of Required Off-Street <br />Parking Spaces <br />Residential <br />Dwelling <br />Secondary Dwelling (Either attached or detached <br />from primary one-family dwelling on same lot) <br />1 per dwelling. <br />Findings: The on-site (off-street) parking requirement is a regulation related to both siting and design <br />because it impacts the way in which an accessory dwelling is constructed (to accommodate on-site <br />parking) and/or the location of the accessory dwelling on the lot; it assists in determining the ground <br />that may (or may not) be occupied by the building. <br />May 20, 2019, Public Hearing - Item 2
