ISSUE STATEMENT With the adoption of the Parks and Recreation System Plan in July 2018 a new project list and priorities for project implementation were established. The project list and priorities are the basis for an updated System Development Charge methodology. A work session was held on July 8, 2019, that provided information on the methodology update, the impact to rates, and implementation options. Several councilors requested additional information that is contained within this AIS. This work session is an opportunity for City Council to further discuss the draft methodology.
BACKGROUND In July 2018, City Council unanimously adopted Picture. Plan. Play. A Vision and Implementation
Plan for Eugene’s Parks and Recreation System, commonly referred to as the Parks and Recreation System Plan. This plan was built on the input of over 12,000 individuals who participated in a multi-year, award-winning public engagement process. The plan outlines a vision to be implemented over the next 30 years, including: renovating existing facilities; acquiring land and building new facilities in unserved areas of town; completing connections throughout the park, path and trail system; and engaging partners to leverage resources and improve services. The implementation of the Parks and Recreation System Plan will require multiple capital funding sources, including bond measures, SDCs, grants, donations and partnerships. SDCs are specifically targeted towards funding portions of the system that are required to support an expanding population. For this reason, SDC fees are applied to the construction of new residential and commercial development. This SDC fee is based on the cost of projects that are planned to occur over the next 20 years that will help meet the park and recreation needs of an increasing population. At the July 8, 2019, work session, several councilors requested additional information.
Councilor Clark asked what percentage of projects on the 2007 SDC project list are on the proposed 2019 project list. Staff’s analysis shows the following status of the 120 projects on the 2007 project list:
o 37 projects, or 31 percent, are carried forward onto the proposed 2019 list
o 55 projects, or 46 percent, have been fully or partially implemented
o 5 projects, or 4 percent, are funded and scheduled for completion in relation to the2018 bond measure
o The remaining projects that have not been completed or carried forward are either nolonger feasible or have been replaced by other project prioritiesIt is not unusual to have unfinished projects on the 2007 project list, given that the list was intended for implementation over a 20-year period. It is therefore expected that a number of projects would be carried forward. Another important consideration is the amount of SDCs that have been collected and spent. At the time of adoption, the 2007 project list was estimated to cost $56.6 million. Since that time, $27 million, or 48 percent of the total cost, has been collected. That includes a balance available of $7.8 million that is being applied to the 2019 project list to “buy down” the total cost and account for projects that are on the 2019 list but are in progress. Councilor Syrett requested information on the percent increase for each housing type whenthe SDCs were last updated in 2007. Resolution No. 4900 was adopted on April 9, 2007, andresulted in the following rate increases:
o Single-Family rates increased from $1,345 to $2,924, a 117 percent increase
o Duplex/Townhome rates increased from $1,345 to $2,370, a 76 percent increase
o Multi-Family/Condo rates increased from $1,345 to $1,850, a 38 percent increaseCouncilor Zelenka requested data on current rates for Springfield, Albany and Portland.Springfield and Albany have been added to the comparison chart that is included inAttachment A. Portland’s rate structure is too complex to fit into the comparison chart but issummarized in the attachment.Councilor Evans asked how many developers are building smaller homes, less than 1,600square feet. This and additional building permit data for the last five years is included inAttachment B.For reference, the most up-to-date project list and rate schedule are included in Attachment C and D. Proposed Next Steps Proposed next steps follow the same process as the recent adoption of the Transportation SDC methodology update: Written notice of System Development Charge methodology update sent to interested parties90 days prior to public hearingConduct additional outreach to interested partiesMake draft methodology available to all interested parties 60 days prior to public hearingCouncil work session on proposed methodology (to be scheduled)
Public hearing, tentatively scheduled for January 20, 2020Modifications to proposed methodology, if neededCouncil deliberation and action

EUGENE CITY COUNCIL
AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY
Work Session: Small Cell Technology in the Right-of-Way Meeting Date: October 9, 2019 Agenda Item Number: 2 Department: Public Works Staff Contact: Scott Milovich
www.eugene-or.gov Contact Telephone Number: 541-682-4813
ISSUE STATEMENT The City Council requested a work session to better understand how small cell technology is installed and regulated in the right-of-way. This presentation will include an overview of the existing program to regulate and permit small cell installations in City right-of-way as well as a description of current and pending installations.
BACKGROUND In accordance with City Code, Eugene Public Works permits telecommunications equipment in the City’s right-of-way, including equipment classified as “small cell.” “Small cell” is an umbrella term for low-powered radio access nodes, including Distribution Antenna Systems, designed to complement the larger macro cell network. They have shorter range and use smaller equipment and antennas than traditional macro cell sites. The permitting process for “small cell” equipment follows established standards and guidelines developed for public and operator safety including maintaining adequate sightlines and traffic control, aesthetics, efficient working conditions, and effective management of the public rights-of-way. These guidelines and standards are based on adopted administrative rules, council’s adopted Telecommunications Vision and Policy, Eugene Code, council’s adopted findings in telecommunications-related land use and right-of-way ordinances, and Federal Communication Commission rules. In addition, small cell equipment installed on City-owned poles is subject to requirements of City lease agreements. The City’s aesthetic standards and application requirements are related to undergrounding, stealth technology, total volume of equipment, ornamental and architectural poles, and traffic signal poles. City staff also follow guidelines that establish general parameters under which requests for telecommunications facilities may be allowed within the public right-of-way. The primary objective of the guidelines is to provide telecommunications providers with a better sense of what the City, Eugene Water & Electric Board, and other right-of-way facility owners will accept related to telecommunications facilities in the right-of-way. Staff first created the guidelines in 2014 and have since updated them three times, the latest in 2018.
Permit applications require detailed plan sets describing the location and configuration of the proposed installation, associated utility connections, how the installation meets accessibility requirements, and Radio Frequency engineering reports that demonstrate compliance with FCC regulations regarding emissions. Additionally, applications for installations on City-owned poles include structural engineering reports and must meet requirements for serviceability of the pole and street lighting infrastructure. Staff review these submittals to determine if the proposed installations meet the guidelines and requirements. The Public Works website has information describing the program and permit requirements and has a map with information regarding the status of permit applications and current installations.
Legal and Legislative Activities The City is one of over 80 other cities, counties and government associations challenging the FCC Small Cell Order ( https://docs.fcc.gov/public/attachments/FCC-18-133A1.pdf), which restricts local control over small cell installations. The City’s case, City of Eugene, et al. v. Federal
Communications Commission, has been fully briefed but not yet argued in the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. At the federal legislative level, H.R. 530 the “Accelerating Broadband Development by Empowering Local Communities Act of 2019’’ was introduced into the House of Representatives and subsequently referred to the House Committee on Energy and Commerce. The bill, if passed, would nullify the recent actions by the FCC in its Small Cell Order. The bill does not address in any manner the issue of safety concerns of small cell networks’ RF emissions, only the FCC’s recent actions. Mayor Vinis signed onto a support letter for H.R. 530, which currently has 126 local leaders and 130 public utilities from 47 states as co-signers. In December 2018, Congresswoman Anna Eshoo and Senator Richard Blumenthal sent a letter to FCC Commissioner Brendan Carr seeking answers regarding potential health risks posed by new 5G wireless technology. Commissioner Carr responded that the FCC and Federal Drug Administration’s research as well as RF emissions safety standards are up to date and complete. At the Oregon State Legislature, Senate Bill 283, will direct the Oregon Health Authority to review peer-reviewed, independently-funded scientific studies of health effects of exposure to microwave radiation, particularly exposure that results from use of wireless network technologies in schools, and to report the results of the review to the interim committee of Legislative Assembly related to education not later than January 2, 2021. This bill was signed by the Governor and became effective August 9, 2019.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL DIRECTION April 17, 2019, Work Session Eugene City Council unanimously passed Resolution No. 5264 requesting the federal government update studies on potential health risks of 5G radio frequency wireless emissions and publish the findings.
