<br /> <br />ATTACHMENT B <br />Summary of Baseline Assumptions and Recommended Values <br /> <br />The analysis to establish a baseline for future land need is built upon key assumptions <br />that are guided by statute and rely on historical trends, recent information and current <br />policies. Key assumptions used in the land needs analysis are organized into three <br />categories: employment land needs, residential land needs, and public and semi-public <br />land needs. <br /> <br />The table on the next page presents a summary of these key assumptions for each of the <br />three categories. Below are definitions to assist with interpreting this data: <br /> <br />Acronyms and Abbreviations <br />? <br /> <br />PD – plan designation <br />? <br /> <br />EPA – employees per acre <br />? <br /> <br />du/acre – dwelling units per acre <br />? <br /> <br />ac/pkp – acres per thousand people <br />? <br /> <br />PROS – City of Eugene Parks, Recreation and Open Space <br /> <br />Shaded are variables are those <br />Column 1: Variable – Name of each key assumption. <br />for which a variation will likely be created. <br /> <br />Column 2: Recommended Value – Current technical recommendation for the baseline <br />assumption. This is a product of committee comments, staff input and consultant <br />expertise. <br /> <br />Column 3: Source of Data – In many cases there are multiple sources. For the sake of <br />brevity, the primary source is shown in this table. <br /> <br />Column 4: Rationale – Reason for the data source or the value shown. In some cases safe <br />harbor provisions in statute are utilized. <br /> <br />Column 5: Reasonable Range – Statute implies that values utilized for determining land <br />need to be reasonable and defensible. Where possible, this column shows the potential <br />range when there are multiple methods that can be utilized or some discretion involved. <br /> <br /> 1 <br /> <br />
