<br />4.7 City of Eugene (Current Work)
<br />Since the adoption of the Eugene -Springfield Multi -jurisdictional NHMP in 2014 many
<br />mitigation actions have occurred in both cities. The Project Team recognized and was
<br />influenced by the continued mitigation progress, support, and trends when determining
<br />the proposed 2020 mitigation action items. The following has occurred since in the past
<br />five years.
<br />City of Eugene -owned buildings were evaluated utilizing either Federal Emergency
<br />Management Agency's (FEMA) Rapid Visual Screening (RVS) or the American
<br />Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) standard methodology.
<br />For General Fund facilities, 536,014 square feet (ft) out of 743,572 ft2, or
<br />approximately 72%, of the structures were evaluated. Additionally, 126,225 ft2of
<br />Public Works', 48,000 ft2 of Planning and Development Departments', and 25,800 ft2
<br />of the Eugene Airport, which included the terminal and fire station, facilities were
<br />evaluated. Currently, Metropolitan Wastewater Management Commission facilities are
<br />being evaluated.
