Eugene Water & Electric Board (EWEB) Master Planned Development October 2012 <br />Conclusions and Recommendations <br />CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS <br />Findings <br />The results of the TPR and traffic impact analysis indicate that the proposed EWEB master plan site <br />redevelopment can be constructed while maintaining acceptable levels of service and safety on the <br />surrounding transportation system as long as the appropriate mitigations are in place. The findings of <br />this analysis and our recommendations are discussed below. <br />YEAR 2011 EXISTING CONDITIONS <br />All of the study intersections operate acceptably during the weekday a.m. and p.m. peak <br />hours, except 4 1 h Avenue /Coburg Road. During the p.m. peak hour, westbound right -turn <br />movement at this intersection currently operates at level of service "F" and over capacity <br />(volume -to- capacity ratio (v /c) > 1.0). <br />A review of historical crash data did not reveal any patterns or trends in the site vicinity <br />that require mitigation associated with this project. <br />PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT PLAN <br />Four redevelopment scenarios were prepared by Rowell Brokaw Architects, PC and <br />Cameron McCarthy staff based on the original EWEB master plan work, market forecasts, <br />and other in- process master planning efforts. All of the scenarios assume that any new <br />development will be in addition to the existing EWEB Administrative Building and the <br />Midgley Building. <br />The redevelopment scenario with the highest trip generation is estimated to generate 6,090 <br />daily net new trips; 780 net new trips (655 inbound, 125 outbound) are projected to occur <br />during the weekday a.m. peak hour and 790 net new trips (190 inbound, 600 outbound) are <br />projected to occur during the weekday p.m. peak hour. <br />TRANSPORTATION PLANNING RULE (TPR) ANALYSIS <br />The EWEB site consists of multiple parcels, which are currently zoned as a combination of <br />Public Lands (PL), Light- Medium Industrial (I -2), Heavy Industrial (1 -3), and Special District <br />(S -W Whiteaker Special Area Zone) with Transit - Oriented District (TOD) and Water <br />Resources Conservation (WR) overlays.
