- Economic trend cycles - In determining the amount of each housing type to plan for, the City must also analyze the need for housing at particular price ranges and rent levels commensurate with the financial capabilities of present and future residents. This is especially important because this affordability factor may require legally possible for the data to be analyzed differently, supporting a different housing mix. /ŵƉůŝĐĂƚŝŽŶƐŽĨWůĂŶŶŝŶŐĨŽƌĂϱϬͬϱϬ,ŽƵƐŝŶŐDŝǆ/ŶƐƚĞĂĚŽĨĂϱϱͬϰϱ,ŽƵƐŝŶŐDŝǆ The capacity analysis inside the UGB and the remaining housing need under different housing mixes is explained in some detail in the attached Envision Eugene Technical Summaries entitled Land for Single- family Homes and Land for Multi-family Homes, and is summarized in the chart below. The difference in the remaining need is about 676 homes. Under a 55/45 housing mix those 676 homes would be planned as single-family. Under a 50/50 housing mix, those 676 homes would be planned as multi- family. Single-family Implications ^ŵĂůůĞƌh'ĞǆƉĂŶƐŝŽŶĨŽƌƐŝŶŐůĞͲ ĨĂŵŝůǇ- The remaining for 234 single-family homes under a 50/50 mix could be accommodated in either of the Baily Hill/Gimpl Hill or the Clear Lake 1 study areas. It unlikely that expansion into the Russel Creek basin study area could be justified for a small single- family expansion. Multi-family Implications One or a combination of these methods may be explored to accommodate an increased multi- family need under a 50/50 mix. h'ĞǆƉĂŶƐŝŽŶĨŽƌŵƵůƚŝͲĨĂŵŝůǇ- The same exception areas studied for potential single-family expansion would be required to be studied first for this need. Some study areas that were removed from consideration for single-family housing may be appropriate for multi- family housing.

Some of this land is located in areas that could be a good fit for multi-family housing, instead (such as along key transit corridors or core commercial areas). Such re-designation of single-family land to multi- 1 The housing capacity of the potential expansion study areas is an estimate. Capacity may be affected by additional natural resource inventories and an update of the buildable lands inventory.
