Ordinance Exhibit DOrdinanceExhibitD DOWNTOWN RIVERFRONT LAND USE COMPONENTS CA 19-1,RA 19-1,Z 19-5,WG 19-3,ST 19-3,and SDR 19-2 April 19,2019 properties relies upon on their existing .designations for parks and open space and nodal development.These individual parcels were not included in the original re-zoning of properties to the S-DR Zone as part of the "EWEB Riverfront Master Plan"(see Ord.20513 and its Exhibits)but have since been recognized as additional parcels that should be rezoned as part of the new riverfront park at its northern end near the DeFazio Pedestrian Bridge.It is also noted that these parcels will have a subdistrict designation within the S-DR zone for /CL,Cultural Landscape,which is consistent with their intended use and availability as part of the new riverfront park. They will also retain the /WR Water Resource Overlay Zoning which will ensure compliance with the City's adopted protections for Goal 5 resources (i.e.the Willamette River).None of these changes would conflict with any known, adopted refinement plan provisions in the context of this criterion. Regarding the removal of the /TD Transit Oriented Development Overlay Zone from one (1)parcel,the development standards in the S-DR Zone (Exhibit A),as amended,duplicate the development standards in the /TD Overlay Zone,with minor modifications to align with the redevelopment vision, and are designed to achieve superior performance in development form.The provisions of the /TD Overlay Zone are designed to supplant those of the applicable base zone or overlay zone.As the provisions of the S-DR Zone duplicate and exceed the provisions of the /TD Overlay Zone,retention of the /TD Overlay Zone would create inconsistencies and is therefore is no longer warranted. Furthermore,this individual parcel is located well outside the Transit Oriented Development Overlay Zone area as indicated on EC Map 9.4510,as are all the other parcels included as part of this concurrent adoption package which were previously rezoned to S-DR and to remove the /TD Overlay Zone in 2013 (again,see Ord.20513 and its Exhibits).In addition,there is no adopted refinement plan that specifically requires retention of the /TD overlay in the context of this criterion.This action is consistent with the overall intent of the S-DR Zone to still facilitate transit-oriented development as part of the overall project,but with more specific provisions in the /CL subdistrict of the S-DR Zone that will facilitate the riverfront park and natural resource protections along the Willamette River. Based on the preceding findings,this criterion is satisfied. (3)The uses and density that will be allowed by the proposed zoning in the location of the proposed change can be served through the orderly extension of key urban facilities and services. The minimum level of key urban facilities and services are defined in the Metro Plan as including wastewater service,stormwater service,transportation,solid waste management,water service,fire and emergency medical services,police protection,City-wide parks and recreation programs,electric service,land use controls,communication facilities,and public schools on a district-wide basis.11 All of these key urban services and facilities are currently available or can be extended in an orderly and efficient manner within a reasonable timeframe as needed,consistent with this criterion. The subject property is located within the UGB and within the downtown core area of Eugene.The subject parcels are currently developed and served by existing urban facilities and services.Future redevelopment will necessitate extension of such services as is typical.Exhibit J:Stormwater Study provides an evaluation of existing stormwater facilities within the subject property.Exhibit K: Wastewater Study provides an evaluation of existing wastewater facilities within the subject property. Existing transportation facilities are sufficient to handle the proposed re-zoning and subsequent 11 Lane Council of Governments (LCOG).Metro Plan.Glossary page V-3.2004 Update.
