Exhibit C
AM Planning Director's Findings and Recommendation:
Annexation Request for MULLER, JOSEPH
Application Submitted: July 9, 2021
Applicant: Joseph William Muller Jr.
Property Included in Annexation Request: Tax Lot 03900 of Assessor's Map 17-03-08-23
Zoning: AG Agricultural Land with an /UL Urbanizable Land Overlay
Location: 3840 Gilham Road
Lead City Staff: Althea Sullivan, Senior Planner, City of Eugene Planning Division, 541-682-5485
Based on the information provided by the applicant, the City has determined that this request complies
with Eugene Code /E[1Section 9.78USAnnexation -Applicability. As such, itissubject 10review and
approval in accordance with the requirements, application criteria and procedures of EC 9.7800 through
9.7835. The applicable approval criteria are presented below in bold typeface with findings and
conclusions following each.
EC 9.7825(l) The land proposed to be annexed is within the city's urban growth boundary and is:
(a) Contiguous to the city limits; or
(b) Separated from the city only by a public right of way or a stream, bay, lake or other
body of water.
Complies
Findings: The annexation area is within the City's urban growth boundary (UGB) and is
contiguous to City limits along the property's north, west, and south boundaries,
M
n
YES
NO
consistent with subsection (a).
EC 9.7825(2) The proposed annexation is consistent with applicable policies in the Metro Plan and in
any applicable refinement plans.
Complies
Findings: Several policies from the.Metro Plan provide support for this annexation by
encouraging compact urban growth to achieve efficient use of land and urban service
M
n
YES
NO
provisions within the UGB, including the following policies from the Growth
Management section (in italic text):
Policy 8. Land within the UGB may be convertedfirom urbanizable to urban only
through annexation to a city when it is found that:
a. A minimum level of key urban facilities and services can be provided to the
area in an orderly and efficient manner.
b. There will be a logical area and time within which to deliver urban services
andfacilities. Conversion of urbanizable land to urban shall also be
consistent with the Metro Plan. (page 11-C-4)
PolicylO. Annexation to a city through normal processes shall continue to be the
highest priority. (page 11-C-5).
MULLER, JOSEPH (A 21-10) October 2021 Page 1
Exhibit C
MULLER, JOSEPH (A 21-10) October 2021 Page 2
Policy 15. Ultimately, land within the UGB shall be annexed to a city and provided with
the required minimum level of urban facilities and services. While the time
framefor annexation may vary, annexation should occur as land transitions
from urbanizable to urban. (page 11-C-5)
The following policy from the Residential Element of the Metro Plan is also applicable:
PolicyA.2 Residentially designated land within the UGB should be zoned consistent with
the Metro Plan, and applicable plans and policies, however, existing
agricultural zoning may be continued within the area between the city limits
and UGB until rezonedfor urban uses.
The Metro Plan clesignates the annexation area as appropriate for low-density
residential use. The Willakenzie Area Plan, (WAP) is the adopted refinement plan for the
subject property, which also designates the area for low-density residential use. The
property is zoned AG Agricultural with an /UL Urbanizable Land overlay. Policy A.2 noted
above, indicates that re -zoning of the property for consistency with the Metro Plan and
WAP plans should occur. Changing the base zone of a property requires a separate
process from annexation, and a change in the zoning of the property from AG
Agricultural will be required prior to any future development. The /UL overlay will be
automatically removed from the property upon approval of the annexation.
As previously discussed in this subsection, and further detailed under subsection (3)
below, the proposed annexation is consistent with Metro Plan growth management
policies and can be served by the minimum level of key urban services. The annexation
procedures beginning at EC 9.7800 are consistent with State law and therefore, as found
throughout this report, the annexation is consistent with State law.
Based on the findings above, the proposal is consistent with the applicable policies of the
Metro Plan and Willakenzie Area Plan refinement plan.
EC 9.7825(3) The proposed annexation will result in a boundary in which the minimum level of key
urban facilities and services, as defined in the Metro Plan, can be provided in an
orderly, efficient, and timely manner.
Complies
Findings: Consistent with this criterion, the proposed annexation will result in a
boundary in which the minimum level of key urban facilities and services can be

NO
provided in an orderly, efficient, and timely manner as detailed below:
Wastewater
Wastewater service is available via an 8 -inch public main located adjacent to the site in
Sterling Park Place. Additionally, a 6 -inch lateral is stubbed to the subject property.
Based on the existing service, and stub, wastewater service is available to the subject
property.

Stormwater
A 10 -inch stormwater service and catch basins are located at the intersection of Sterling
Woods Drive and Sterling park place, near the subject property. At the time of further
development of the property, treatment of stormwater will be further evaluated for
consistency with City of Eugene policies and plans for treatment. With a variety of
options available to provide stormwater treatment, service can be provided in an
orderly, efficient, and timely manner.
Transportation
The property has frontage on Gilham road and Sterling Park Place which connect to
other streets allowing access to the greater public street system. In the event further
development occurs, additional evaluation of access to the public street system will take
place.

Collection service is provided by private firms. Regional disposal sites are operated by
Lane County.

Eugene Water and Electric Board (EWEB) Water staff confirm that water and electric
services are available to the property. Water and electric services can be extended to the
subject property in accordance with EWEB policies and procedures.

provision through the City. Fire protection will be provided by Eugene Springfield Fire.
Emergency medical services are currently provided on a regional basis and will continue
in the same manner upon annexation.

Parks and recreation programs are provided on a City-wide basis. The inclusion of the
subject property in the City is sufficient evidence to demonstrate the minimum level of
this key urban service is met.

Urban Growth Boundary by the City of Eugene. The Eugene Code, Chapter 9, will provide
the required land use controls for future development of the subject property upon
