<br />In conjunction with the technical data, the Metropolitan Area General Plan <br />.provides specific criteria for the allocation and location of the various <br />commercial and residential development nodes. These criteria relate to the <br />prime .factor of population being a resource for an equitable distribution and <br />balance of commercial land and industrial sites. A complete range of urban <br />services provided additional criteria for identification of this commercial- <br />residential development node. For example, the Barger-Beltline development node <br />has direct egress/ingress to Barger Avenue, which is an arterial extending <br />between two major arterials--Highway 99 North and Beltline Road. The proposed <br />node will not be bisected by any future arterials, causing negative impact <br />within the study area. This particular study area is presently served with the <br />complete range of urban services, since it is within the city limits of Eugene. <br />Therefore, the development of this area is not dependent on the extension of <br />urban services, or future capital improvements, such as arterial streets, trunk <br />sanitary sewers, or storm sewers. <br /> <br />The intensity for proposed services within the commercial area is dependent on <br />the amount of land allocated f9r the commercial use, the amount of residential <br />area to be served, and specific uses allowed for in the various commercial <br />categories of the Eugene Code. <br /> <br />RECOMMENDATIONS: Barger-Beltline Development Node <br /> <br />Policy: <br /> <br />A commercial/residential node, involving 5 acres of neighborhood <br />commercial, 16 acres of high-density residential, and 71 acres of <br />,medium-density residential, shall be developed at the northeast <br />corner of Beltline Road and Barger Avenue (see map on page 10). <br /> <br />Proposals: <br /> <br />1. Public or private egress and ingress should not be allowed along the <br />north side of Barger Drive between the west margin of Echo Hollow Road <br />if extended north of Barger Avenue and the east margin of Beltline <br />Road. <br /> <br />. This recommendation is based on the existing adverse situation <br />created by the private egress and ingress (curb cut) for the Echo <br />Hollow Plaza development south of Barger Avenue and west on Echo <br />Hollow Road. <br /> <br />Terminating along the northerly boundary of the development node are <br />two streets, Cubit Street and Cleary Street. It is assumed that <br />these two streets will extend into and through the development node <br />site and create i~tersections with Barger Avenue. Cubit Street is. <br />likely to extend south to the present intersection of Barger Avenue <br />and Echo Hollow Road and Cleary Street to extend south through the <br />area creating an. intersection with Barger Avenue. The location/type <br />of intersection can best be resolved based on knowledge of future <br />development of the development node. Two other streets, Mangan. and <br />Wagner, will tie back into Cubit Street and Cleary Street before <br />intersecting with. Barger Avenue. <br /> <br />1-30 <br /> <br />-8- <br />
