<br />v. LAND USE AND DEVELOPMENT ANALYSIS <br />R~2 LOTS EAST OF CHAMBERS STREET <br /> <br />Introduction <br /> <br />This report presents data and basic analysis on the R-2 zoned lots that are east of <br />Chambers Street in the Chambers Revisited (CR) project area. Appendix A shows <br />a map of the R-2 area that's covered by this study. <br /> <br />The initial list ofR-2 zoned tax lots was provided by Planning & Development <br />Department (PDD) staff Lot boundaries and dimensions, from which lot areas <br />were calculated; were obtained from tax lot maps provided on the State of Oregon <br />"Geospatial Enterprise Office" Web site at <br />hUl1;1twww.ormap.org/index.cfm?QPt=mapsonline .18 <br /> <br />Volunteers from the CAFHN organization collected all other data by direct <br />observation for each lot. Volunteers recorded the street address and current <br />number of dwellings for all lots. <br /> <br />For lots with more than one dwelling and lots with a single-family house that <br />appeared to be infill, the following information was also recorded: <br /> <br />· Structure type (e.g., duplex) <br /> <br />· Number of stories (1, IY2,or2) <br /> <br />. Where on the lot structures are located <br /> <br />. Location of on-site parking <br /> <br />· Compatibility with typical neighborhood development <br /> <br />. Negative impacts <br /> <br />Negative impacts were coded according to the system summarized in the previous <br />section of this report. <br /> <br />Digital photographs were taken of many sites and representative samples can also <br />be found on the CAFHN Web site. <br /> <br />Summary visual surveys were also conducted by walking the study area. This <br />method was used to determine such things as typical and maximum roof heights, <br />roof forms, presence of sidewalks and on-street parking, etc. <br /> <br />I g Data provided by PDD also included lot size in I/lOOths of an acre and the number of existing dwelling <br />writs on each lot. We cross-checked the City-provided data against the data from tax lot maps and from <br />direct observation by CAFHN volunteers and found a significant number of errors in the City-provided <br />data. We believe this report is based on the most accurare data that's available. <br />We provided the staff and consultants on the CR project team with a comprehensive list of all R-2 lots <br />east of Chambers Street and identified aU the discrepancies in the lot si7-e and current dwelling units data <br /> <br />November 1, 2005 <br /> <br />Chambers Revisited - Neighbors' Report <br /> <br />29 <br />
