1.
Council discussion:
Support expressed for Option C1.
Important to identify where parking would go in these scenarios, to address both
public and employee needs.
Cost is major factor in any decision about scenarios; important to provide that
information up front.
Important for city offices to be connected (e.g. sky bridge); benefit for public.
Further discussion needed on whether trade would include the old courthouse.
Idea of locating city offices in the PSB should be explored further
Location of Farmers Market is a priority consideration in this discussion.
Cost on refurbishing the courthouse needs to be explored.

WORK SESSION: Envision Eugene Multi-Family Housing Strategies
1.
Principal Planner Terri Harding and Planning Director Robin Hostick gave a PowerPoint
presentation discussing the Envision Eugene timeline, review of summer engagement results, and
council direction on housing strategies.
Council discussion:
Refinement plans are needed before MUPTE can expand beyond downtown.
If data submitted by Helickson is valid, none of the proposed options will be needed.
Review of new data should not occur in a vacuum; not interested in taking more time.
Moving from 10 to 14 units of allowable housing is a significant increase.
Re-examining all of the assumptions is not advisable; update has been built into process.
Endless revisions will cause the State to step in; process cannot drag on indefinitely.
Support staff recommendations and appreciate efforts in reaching out to underrepresented
population.
Input from affordable housing sector is a very important component of the calculation.
MOTION:
Councilor Evans, seconded by Councilor Zelenka, moved to direct staff to prepare
the UGB adoption package using the high density residential downtown redevelopment strategy
and the medium density residential option B with exemptions for lots under a half an acre in size
and subsidized affordable housing development.
MOTION TO SUBSTITUTE:
Councilor Brown, seconded by Councilor Taylor, moved to
substitute the main motion with a motion to direct the City Manager to come back to the City
Council with an analysis of the technical statements in Mr. Helikson’s October 22, 2016, letter to

BALLOT MEASURE 49
(ORS 195.300 – ORS 195.336)
CLAIM FOR COMPENSATION
REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION OF THE CITY MANAGER
NAME OF CLAIMANTS: Chad and Katie Wilson
th
PROPERTY ADDRESS: 1777 E. 30 Avenue
Eugene, OR 97405
CLAIMANTS’ REPRESENTATIVE: Bill Kloos
PROPERTY IDENTIFICATION: Tax Lot 602 of Assessor’s
Map 18-03-08-11
ZONING: Low Density Residential; R-1
I.Summary of Claim
Chad and Katie Wilson (Claimants) submitted a claim under Ballot Measure 49 for
compensation for the alleged reduction in fair market value to their property located at 1777 E.
th
30 Avenue in Eugene, Oregon. The property currently contains a residence, built in 2004, on the
southwest portion of the property. Claimants built the residence with the intention of later
converting it to a “secondary dwelling unit” and building a larger, primary residence on the
northern portion of the property. Claimants assert that EC 9.2751(17)(c)9., which limits and
prescribes a certain method of measuring the height/sloped setback of detached secondary
dwelling units, restricts the residential use of their property, as it prohibits them from converting
the residence built in 2004 into a secondary dwelling. Claimants contend that EC 9.2751(17)(c)9.,
enacted in 2014, reduces the fair market value of their property. Claimants assert a $60,000 decline
in the value of their property, but do not specifically articulate a request for compensation. Rather,
Claimants request that the City waive EC 9.2751(17)(c)9., allowing them to construct a new
primary dwelling on their property and to convert the existing dwelling into a legal detached
secondary dwelling unit.
II.Summary of City Manager’s Recommendation
Measure 49 generally grants a property owner of residentially zoned land located within
an urban growth boundary the right to compensation or waiver of the regulation (at the option of
the government) if five substantive requirements are met. First, the regulation must constitute a
“land use regulation” as that term is defined by Measure 49. Second, the public entity against
which the claim is made must have enacted the regulation after January 1, 2007, but not more than
five years before the date the claim was filed. Third, the regulation must “restrict the residential
use” of residentially zoned private property. Fourth, the effect of the regulation must be to cause
Page 1 – REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION OF THE CITY MANAGER
a reduction of the fair market value of the property. Fifth, the regulation must not fall within one
of Measure 49’s six exemptions.
As discussed below, the regulation that is the subject of this claim qualifies as land use
regulations, was enacted after January 1, 2007, and less than five years before the date the claim
was filed, effectively restricts a previously allowed residential use on the residentially zoned
property, and reduces the property’s fair market value. Further, the regulation does not fall within
one of Measure 49’s six exemptions. Therefore, this report concludes that the claim is valid.
If a claim is determined to be valid under Measure 49, a local government must either (1)
compensate the claimant for the reduction in the fair market value of the property, or (2) authorize
the claimant to use the property without application of the land use regulation “to the extent
necessary to offset the reduction in the fair market value of the property.” The Claimants do not
specifically request compensation; accordingly, the City Manager recommends that the City
Council waive EC 9.2751(17)(c)9. as it relates to the existing structure on the property and to the
extent the waiver is needed to allow conversion of that structure to a secondary dwelling unit.
III.Analysis of Claim
A.Ownership
Measure 49 provides for payment of compensation or relief from (waiver of) specific
regulations for “owners” as that term is defined by the Measure. Ballot Measure 49, defines
“owner” to include “\[t\]he owner of fee title to the property as shown in the deed records of the
county where the property is located\[.\]” ORS 195.300(18).
Based on the information submitted by the Claimants (Warranty Deed 2003-082408 and
Deed 2014-049003), and information from the Lane County Regional Land Information Database
(RLID), the City Manager concludes that the subject property was acquired by Claimant Chad
Wilson on August 26, 2003, and an undivided one-half interest in the property was transferred to
Claimant Katie Wilson on December 9, 2014. Accordingly, both Claimants are owners.
B. “Land Use Regulations”
Measure 49 requires compensation (or waiver) only for those regulations that constitute
“land use regulations” as that term is defined by Measure 49. Further, the regulation must have
been enacted after January 1, 2007. Measure 49 defines “land use regulation,” with respect to
cities, as a “provision of a city comprehensive plan, zoning ordinance or land division ordinance
that restricts the residential use of private real property zoned for residential use.” ORS
195.300(14)(c)
For purposes of Measure 49, EC 9.2751(17)(c)9. is a “land use regulation” if it is a
provision of a city zoning ordinance that restricts the residential use of private real property zoned
for residential use. EC 9.2751(17)(c)9. is a provision of the city’s zoning ordinance, and it
regulates residential uses on property zoned for residential uses. This land use regulation was
adopted as part of Ordinance No. 20526, which became effective April 12, 2014. Thus, the only
question remaining is whether EC 9.2751(17)(c)9. “restricts the residential use” of the subject
property.
Page 2 – REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION OF THE CITY MANAGER
C. Restriction on Residential Use
A “land use regulation” gives rise to a Measure 49 claim only if the regulation restricts the
residential use of private property and thus reduces the fair market value of property. The specific
regulation that Claimants point to is EC 9.2751(17)(c)9., which provides a height limit for new
attached and detached secondary dwelling units within the city-recognized boundaries of Amazon
Neighbors, Fairmount Neighbors and South University Neighborhood and proscribes a method for
1
determining the height of a building.
Adopted on March 12, 2014 (by Ordinance No. 20526) and effective on April 12, 2014,
EC 9.2751(17)(c)9. establishes the following limitations for detached secondary dwellings in that
neighborhood:
(17) Secondary Dwellings in R-1
. . . .
(c) Area-Specific Secondary Dwelling Standards. The following standards
apply to all new attached or detached secondary dwellings in the R-1 zone within the city-
recognized boundaries of Amazon Neighbors, Fairmount Neighbors and South University
Neighborhood Association:
. . . .
9. Building Height/Interior Setback. For detached secondary
dwellings:
a. The interior yard setback shall be at least 5 feet from
the interior lot line. In addition, at a point that is 8
feet above grade, the setback shall slope at the rate of
10 inches vertically for every 12 inches horizontally
(approximately 40 degrees from horizontal) away
from the lot line until a point not to exceed a
maximum building height of 18 feet.
b. The allowances for setback intrusions provided at EC
9.6745(3) do not apply within the setback described
in 1. above, except that eaves, chimneys and gables
are allowed to project into this setback no more than
2 feet.
Prior to the Council’s adoption of the above-quoted code provision, the code-prescribed
manner for measuring the building height of a detached secondary dwelling would have allowed
for the Claimants’ existing dwelling to have been converted to a lawful detached secondary
dwelling.See Section 2 of Ordinance No. 20417. That is, under the code provisions that existed
Њ
While Claimants do not provide this information, staff has determined that the subject property falls within
the boundaries of the Fairmount Neighbors.
Page 3 – REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION OF THE CITY MANAGER
prior to the adoption of Ordinance No. 20526, the Claimants’ existing structure met the height
requirement for a detached secondary dwelling. However, the code-prescribed manner for
measuring the building height of a detached secondary dwelling that went into effect on April 12,
2014 (quoted above), prevents the Claimants from converting the existing structure to a lawful
detached secondary dwelling. That is, based on the measuring method adopted in 2014, the
Claimants’ existing structure exceeds the maximum height allowed for a detached secondary
dwelling.
Claimants assert that EC 9.2751(17)(c)9. is a “land use regulation” that “restricts the
residential use” of the subject property because their existing structure satisfied the height
requirements for a detached secondary dwelling prior to the adoption of Ordinance No. 20526 but
no longer satisfied the height requirements after the adoption of Ordinance No. 20526, Stated
another way, prior the 2014 adoption of Ordinance No. 20526, Claimants could have converted
the existing residence to a detached secondary dwelling unit and constructed another, primary,
residence on the subject property. In fact, in June of 2014, Claimants sought a building permit to
do just that. However, because Ordinance No. 20526 went into effect on April 12, 2014
(approximately two months prior to the Claimants seeking a building permit), the City could not
issue Claimants the building permit to convert the existing residence into a secondary dwelling.
On March 12, 2013 (one year before the regulation was enacted), Claimants could have
converted their existing structure into a detached secondary dwelling and constructed a new, larger,
primary dwelling on the remainder of their property.The record reflects that the Claimants
intended to do so. Following adoption of EC 9.2751(17)(c)9. Claimants could no longer convert
the existing dwelling into a detached secondary dwelling unit because, based on the manner in
which the structure must be measured, the existing structure is too tall to qualify as a detached
secondary dwelling unit. Thus, the residential use currently allowed on the Claimants’ property is
restricted by EC 9.2751(17)(c)9.,when compared to what was allowed on the Claimants’ property
prior to the 2014 adoption of Ordinance No. 20526.
D. Reduction in Value
The regulation restricts the residential use of the subject property in such a way that reduces
the fair market value of the property. Claimants submitted appraisals of the fair market value of
the property one year before the adoption of EC 9.2751(17)(c)9. (March 12, 2013) and one year
2
after the adoption of EC 9.2751(17)(c)9. The March 12, 2013, appraisal provides a property value
of $470,000. The March 12, 2015, appraised provides a property value of $410,000. As of the
date of this Recommendation, there is nothing in the record that contradicts the accuracy of the
appraisals submitted by Claimants. Accordingly, the appraisals confirm that EC 9.2751(17)(c)9.,
which restricts the residential use of the Claimants’ property, reduces the fair market value of the
Claimants’ property.
E. Exemptions
Finally, a Measure 49 claim is not valid if the challenged regulation falls within one of the
exemptions under the Measure. Regulations adopted to protect the public health and safety,
prevent nuisances, or comply with federal law are exempt under Measure 49, even if they
otherwise constitute “land use regulations” that “restrict the residential use” and “reduce the fair
2 Measure 49 requires the reduction in fair market value of the property be demonstrated through an appraisal that
meets certain requirements. ORS 194.310(2). The appraisal submitted by Claimants satisfies those requirements.
Page 4 – REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION OF THE CITY MANAGER
market value” of property. Regulations that (1) restrict or prohibit the use of the property for
selling pornography or performing nude dancing, (2) plan and rezone land for industrial zoning to
be included in the UGB, or (3) plan and rezone land already within a UGB to industrial zoning,
are also exempt under Measure 49. Finally, Measure 49 does not apply to regulations that were
enacted before the Claimant(s) acquired the property.
The regulation at issue in this claim does not fall within any of these exemptions.
IV. Conclusion and Recommendation
Based on the analysis set-forth above, the City Manager recommends that the City Council
conclude that the subject Measure 49 claim is valid. In lieu of compensation, the City Manager
recommends that the City Council waive the height limit provisions of EC 9.2751(17)(c)9. to the
extent such waiver is necessary to offset the reduction in fair market value. The scope of the City
Manager’s recommended waiver addresses only the applicability of EC 9.2751(17)(c)9. to the
Claimants’ conversion of the existing structure to a lawful detached secondary dwelling. The
recommended waiver does not address the applicability of any other provision that might preclude
such conversion. Further, the waiver of the height limit in EC 9.27.51(17)(c)9. does not allow
further modifications to the Claimants’ existing structure that would increase the height of the
structure above the height that existed on the date that Claimants’ filed their Measure 49 claim
with the City (February 24, 2016).
Because the City Manager is recommending that the Council grant the Claimants’ a waiver
of the height limitation in EC 9.2751(17)(c)9., and Measure 49 authorizes a public hearing by the
City Council in such instances, this claim has been scheduled for a public hearing on November
14, 2016.

A RESOLUTION GRANTING A MEASURE 49 CLAIM AND WAIVING A
PROVISION OF CHAPTER 9 OF THE EUGENE CODE, 1971, FOR
TH
PROPERTY LOCATED AT 1777 E. 30 AVENUE, EUGENE, OREGON
(ASSESSOR’S MAP 18-03-08-11, TAX LOT 602).
The City Council of the City of Eugene finds that:
A.
Chad and Katie Wilson submitted a claim to the City seeking compensation or a
waiver of regulations under Ballot Measure 49. Claimants alleged that the maximum height
limit provision in subsection (17)(c)9. of Section 9.2751 of the Eugene Code, 1971 (EC), that
applies to detached secondary dwellings on the subject property restricts the residential use of
th
their property and diminished the fair market value of the property at 1777 E. 30 Avenue,
Eugene, Oregon (the property).
B.
The City Manager has caused an investigation of the claim to be made, has
determined the claim to be valid, and has submitted to the Council a Report and
Recommendation that EC 9.2751(17)(c)9. be waived. The scope of the City Manager’s
recommended waiver addresses only the applicability of EC 9.2751(17)(c)9. to the Claimants’
conversion of the existing structure to a lawful detached secondary dwelling. The recommended
waiver does not address the applicability of any other provision that might preclude such
conversion. Further, the waiver of the height limit in EC 9.27.51(17)(c)9. does not allow further
modifications to the Claimants’ existing structure that would increase the height of the structure
above the height that existed on the date that Claimants’ filed their Measure 49 claim with the
City (February 24, 2016).
C.
Considering the City Manager’s recommendation and conclusion as to the validity
of the claim, and the lack of City funds with which to pay compensation to the claimants, the
City Council finds the public interest will be best served by waiving the requirement of EC
9.2751(17)(c)9. as set forth herein.
NOW, THEREFORE,
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF EUGENE, a
Municipal Corporation of the State of Oregon, as follows:
Section 1.
Based on the above findings, which are adopted, and the analysis contained in
the Report and Recommendation of the City Manager, the City Council hereby waives EC
9.2751(17)(c)9. for the property owned by Claimants Chad and Katie Wilson, Assessor’s Map

Findings
Annual Maintenance of the Land Use Code
(City File CA 16-3)
Findings
Eugene Code Section 9.8065 requires that the following approval criteria (in bold italics) be applied to a code
amendment:
(1) The amendment is consistent with applicable statewide planning goals adopted by the Land
Conservation and Development Commission.
Goal 1 - Citizen Involvement. To develop a citizen involvement program that insures the opportunity for citizens
to be involved in all phases of the planning process.
The City has acknowledged provisions for citizen involvement which insure the opportunity for citizens to be
involved in all phases of the planning process and set out requirements for such involvement. The
amendments do not amend the citizen involvement program. The process for adopting these amendments
complied with Goal 1 because it is consistent with the citizen involvement provisions.
A Notice of Proposed Amendment was filed with the Oregon Department of Land Conservation and
Development on June 6, 2016. A public hearing was scheduled before the Planning Commission on July 12,
2016. A public hearing before the City Council was held October 24, 2016. Consistent with code requirements,
the Planning Commission public hearing and the City Council public hearing on the proposal was duly noticed
to all neighborhood organizations in Eugene, community groups and individuals who have requested notice. In
addition, notice of the Planning Commission public hearing was also published in the Register Guard.
Information concerning the proposed amendments, including the dates of the public hearings, were posted on
the City of Eugene websites.
These processes afford ample opportunity for citizen involvement consistent with Goal 1. Therefore, the
ordinance is consistent with Statewide Planning Goal 1.
Goal 2 - Land Use Planning. To establish a land use planning process and policy framework as a basis for all
decisions and actions related to use of land and to assure an adequate factual basis for such decisions and
actions.
Eugene land use code specifies the procedure and criteria that were used in considering these amendments.
The record shows that there is an adequate factual base for the amendments. The Goal 2 coordination
requirement is met when the City engages in an exchange, or invites such an exchange, between the City and
any affected governmental unit and when the City uses the information obtained in the exchange to balance
the needs of the citizens.
To comply with the Goal 2 coordination requirement, the City engaged in an exchange about the subject of
these amendments with all of the affected governmental units. Specifically, the City provided notice of the
proposed action and opportunity to comment to the Oregon Department of Land Conservation and
Development. There are no exceptions to Statewide Planning Goal 2 required for these amendments.
Therefore, the amendments are consistent with Statewide Planning Goal 2.
Findings - 1
EXHIBIT A
Goal 3 - Agricultural Lands. To preserve agricultural lands.
The amendments are for property located within the urban growth boundary and do not affect any land
designated for agricultural use. Therefore, Statewide Planning Goal 3 does not apply.
Goal 4 - Forest Lands. To conserve forest lands.
The amendments are for property located within the urban growth boundary and do not affect any land
designated for forest use. Therefore, Statewide Planning Goal 4 does not apply.
Goal 5 - Open Spaces, Scenic and Historic Areas, and Natural Resources. To conserve open space and protect
natural and scenic resources.
OAR 660-023-0250(3) provides: Local governments are not required to apply Goal 5 in consideration of a PAPA
unless the PAPA affects a Goal 5 resource. For purposes of this section, a PAPA would affect a Goal 5 resource
only if:
(a)The PAPA creates or amends a resource list or a portion of an acknowledged plan or land use
regulation adopted in order to protect a significant Goal 5 resource or to address specific requirements
of Goal 5;
(b)The PAPA allows new uses that could be conflicting uses with a particular significant Goal 5 resource
site on an acknowledged resource list; or
(c)The PAPA amends an acknowledged UGB and factual information is submitted demonstrating that a
resource site, or the impact areas of such a site, is included in the amended UGB area.
These amendments do not create or amend the Citys list of Goal 5 resources, do not amend a code provision
adopted in order to protect a significant Goal 5 resource or to address specific requirements of Goal 5, do not
allow new uses that could be conflicting uses with a significant Goal 5 resource site and do not amend the
acknowledged urban growth boundary. Therefore, Statewide Planning Goal 5 does not apply.
Goal 6 - Air, Water and land Resource Quality. To maintain and improve the quality of the air, water and land
resources of the state.
Goal 6 addresses waste and process discharges from development, and is aimed at protecting air, water and
land from impacts from those discharges. The amendments to not affect the Citys ability to provide for clean
air, water or land resources. Therefore, Statewide Planning Goal 6 does not apply.
Goal 7 - Areas Subject to Natural Disasters and Hazards. To protect life and property from natural disasters
and hazards.
Goal 7 requires that local government planning programs include provisions to protect people and property
from natural hazards such as floods, landslides, earthquakes and related hazards, tsunamis and wildfires. The
Goal prohibits a development in natural hazard areas without appropriate safeguards. The amendments do
not affect the Citys restrictions on development in areas subject to natural disasters and hazards. Further, the
amendments do not allow for new development that could result in a natural hazard. Therefore, Statewide
Planning Goal 7 does not apply.
Goal 8 - Recreational Needs. To satisfy the recreational needs of the citizens of the state and visitors, and where
appropriate, to provide for the siting of necessary recreational facilities including destination resorts.
Findings - 2
EXHIBIT A
Goal 8 ensures the provision of recreational facilities to Oregon citizens and is primarily concerned with the
provision of those facilities in non-urban areas of the state. The amendments do not affect the Citys
provisions for or access to recreation areas, facilities or recreational opportunities. Therefore, Statewide
Planning Goal 8 does not apply.
Goal 9 - Economic Development. To provide adequate opportunities throughout the state for a variety of
economic activities vital to the health, welfare, and prosperity of Oregons citizens.
Goal 9 requires cities to evaluate the supply and demand of commercial land relative to community economic
objectives. The amendments do not impact the supply of industrial or commercial lands. Therefore, the
amendments are consistent with Statewide Planning Goal 9.
Goal 10 - Housing. To provide for the housing needs of citizens of the state.
Goal 10 requires communities to provide an adequate supply of residential buildable land to accommodate
estimated housing needs for a 20-year planning period. The amendments do not impact the supply of
residential buildable land. No land is being re-designated from residential use to a nonresidential use, and the
amendments do not otherwise diminish the lands available for residential use. Therefore, the amendments
are consistent with Statewide Planning Goal 10.
Goal 11- Public Facilities and Services. To plan and develop a timely, orderly and efficient arrangement of public
facilities and services to serve as a framework for urban and rural development.
The amendments do not affect the Citys provision of public facilities and services. Therefore, Statewide
Planning Goal 11 does not apply.
Goal 12- Transportation. To provide and encourage a safe, convenient and economic transportation system.
The Transportation Planning Rule (OAR 660-012-0060) contains the following requirement:
(1) If an amendment to a functional plan, an acknowledged comprehensive plan, or a land use regulation
(including a zoning map) would significantly affect an existing or planned transportation facility, then the
local government must put in place measures as provided in section (2) of this rule, unless the
amendment is allowed under section (3), (9) or (10) of this rule. A plan or land use regulation amendment
significantly affects a transportation facility if it would:

EXHIBIT A
projected to not meet the performance standards identified in the TSP or comprehensive plan.
The amendments do not change the functional classification of a transportation facility, change the standards
implementing a functional classification system or degrade the preformation of a facility otherwise projected
to not meet performance standards. Therefore, the amendments do not have a significant effect under (a), (b)
or (c). Therefore, the amendments do not significantly affect any existing or future transportation facilities.
Based on the above findings, the amendment is consistent with Statewide Planning Goal 12.
Goal 13 - Energy Conservation. To conserve energy.
The amendments do not impact energy conservation. Therefore, Statewide Planning Goal 13 does not apply.
Goal 14 - Urbanization. To provide for an orderly and efficient transition from rural to urban land use.
The amendments do not affect the Citys provisions regarding the transition of land from rural to urban uses.
Therefore, Statewide Planning Goal 14 does not apply.
Goal 15 - Willamette River Greenway. To protect, conserve, enhance and maintain the natural, scenic,
historical, agricultural, economic and recreational qualities of lands along the Willamette River as the
Willamette River Greenway.

therefore, Statewide Planning Goal 15 does not apply.
Goal 16 through 19 - Estuarine Resources, Coastal Shorelands, Beaches and Dunes, and Ocean Resources.
There are no coastal, ocean, estuarine, or beach and dune resources related to the property effected by these
amendments. Therefore, these goals are not relevant and the amendments will not affect compliance with
Statewide Planning Goals 16 through 19.

refinement plans.
The amendments do not include any change in adopted land use designations or policy, nor does it change any
refinement plans. There are no policies or other applicable provisions in the Metro Plan or adopted
refinement plans that specifically serve as mandatory approval criteria in this instance or otherwise limit the
expiration period for approved land use applications. Therefore, the amendments comply with the above
criterion.
