Ordinance Exhibit D 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 ■ Sidewalks. Similar to the streets and alleys section above, the sidewalk width, placement, and amenities are included in S -DR cross sections. The subdivision complies with the standards included in the S -DR zone (see Sheets C6.2). Trees are shown on the street sections for illustrative purposes. Exact species and spacing will be refined through coordination and permitting with the City's Urban Forestry staff. ■ Bicycle Paths and Accessways. The subdivision places access easements over several public accessways that connect to the riverfront pathway system and future riverfront park. The pathways proposed at the eastern ends of Local Roads 1 and 2 meet the 12 -feet minimum width standard at EC 9.3160(6). Construction -level details for all public improvements will be reviewed and approved by the City at the time of public improvement permitting. Based on the findings above, this criterion is met. (2) Approval does not impede the future best use of the remainder of the property under the same ownership or adversely affect the development of the remainder or any adjoining land or access thereto, based on the provisions of this land use code. For subdivisions involving phasing, it shall be demonstrated that each sequential phase will maintain consistency with the provisions of EC 9.8515 Tentative Subdivision Approval Criteria - General. The tentative subdivision does not impede the future use of the adjacent properties, as access is maintained to adjacent public rights-of-way. The existing southern EWEB office building maintains existing access to East 4th Avenue and is connected to the site by the Ferry Street extension. On the southern end of the site, the adjacent substation retains access to the current Hilyard Street railroad crossing and a new access point is provided by Local Road 3. The subdivision covers the entirety of properties under the same ownership. As described under EC 9.7010(3), the proposed subdivision is not phased; however, as indicated by the smaller townhome lots, there will be multiple final plats recorded to implement the approved tentative subdivision. Thus, the tentative subdivision will facilitate the future best use of the remainder of the property. The proposal complies with this criterion. (3) Any existing improvements on the proposed lots are consistent with the provisions of this land use code. The site is partially developed with four buildings and paved parking areas. Of the four structures, only the steam plant is being retained. The removal of existing buildings will otherwise occur prior to final plat approval, to ensure no encroachments within proposed lots or rights-of-way. The steam plant is located on Lot 17. When creating lots around existing structures, proposals must comply with setback standards to avoid non -conformities. In the S -DR zone, there is no minimum front or interior yard setback (EC 9.3155(2)); thus, Lot 17 and the existing steam plant siting are consistent with the provisions of this land use code. Future development on Lot 17 is subject to the S -DR development standards at EC 9.3148 regarding adaptive reuse. The proposal complies with this criterion. (4) The proposed subdivision will be consistent with the property's designation in the comprehensive plan and applicable adopted plan policies as reflected in the sections beginning at EC 9.9500. The site has two designations in the Metro Plan diagram. With City Council's adoption of Ordinance no. 20513, the portion of the site west of the Ferry Street Bridge viaduct is designated High Density City of Eugene FINAL SUBMITTAL 66
