1Petitioner’s first through seventh and ninth assignments of error challenge the <br />2amendments adopted by Ordinance 20418 on various grounds. <br />C. Stormwater Management <br />3 <br />4 EC 9.6790 directs the City Manager to adopt a Stormwater Management Manual. <br />5The second ordinance that is challenged in this appeal, Ordinance 20417, amends EC 9.6790 <br />6to specify certain goals with which the Stormwater Management Manual must be consistent. <br />7Petitioner challenges that amendment in its eighth and ninth assignments of error. <br />INTRODUCTION <br />8 <br />9 The first seven assignments of error, particularly the third through seventh <br />10assignments of error, assume that the new building height limits in the 16-block area south of <br />11the university and the new off-street parking requirements in the South and West University <br />12Neighborhoods necessarily will preclude residential development at the maximum allowed <br />13density in those areas and will have the effect of increasing the number of trips by <br />14automobile and the resultant pollution and greenhouse gases.
