necessary to comply with applicable requirements and confirms that proposed street alignment minimizes excavation and embankment by avoiding the existing drainage channel. With respect to EC 9.6820 Cul-de-Sacs, Public Works staff confirms that a cul-de-sac bulb or hammerhead turn around is not required for the proposed terminus of Nelson Street or the street stubs to the north property line because they do"not exceed 150 feet. Public Works staff further confirms that the proposed street layout generally allows convenient and safe access to nearby uses without the need for additional accessways pursuant to EC 9.6835 and that the proposed street intersections comply with intersection angle and offset requirements set forth in EC 9.6830. With respect to reserve strips, the applicant states that no reserve strips are necessary. Contrary to the applicant's assertion, Public Works finds that reserve strips are necessary at the north end of both proposed street stubs to the north property line (Sterling Woods Drive and Nelson Court) to prevent access to lands abutting streets in accordance with the reserve strip provisions at EC 9.6840. The reserve strips requirements could be further addressed as part of part of the subdivision process. As confirmed by Public Works staff, there are no special safety requirements per EC 9.6845 necessary to discourage use of any of the new streets or street extensions by non-local motor vehicle traffic. EC 9.6855, StreeUNames, provides that names for new streets are subject to city approval and shall not unnecessarily duplicate or resemble the name of any existing or platted street. Street names are also subject to review and approval by an intergovernmental street naming committee. The applicant's written statement indicates that the proposal continues Sterling Woods Drive and that it may make sense for the most eastern north stub to be named Sterling Woods Drive, for continuity (as shown on the site plans). The applicant also indicates that there are no other streets named Nelson Street in Eugene. Public Works staff notes that Nelson Street and Nelson Court are not likely to be approved considering that Regional Land Information Database (RLID) records identify a Nelson Lane and Nelson Mountain Road in use elsewhere in Lane County. This standard can be addressed with the condition that the final site plans clarify that the identified street names are not explicitly approved as shown and are subject to review and approval as part of the subsequent subdivision process. With respect to EC 9.6865 Transit Facilities, LTD staff indicates that additional transit facilities are not needed in conjunction with the proposed PUD to accommodate transit service. Referral comments from Public Works Engineering staff further confirm that the remaining standards of EC 9.6800 though EC 9.6875 are either inapplicable or have been met. Given the available information, the proposed PUD can feasibly comply with subsection (b) with adherence to the conditions and requirements noted. (b) Pedestrian, bicycle and transit circulation, including related facilities, as needed among buildings and related uses on the development site, as well as to adjacent and nearby residential areas, transit stops, neighborhood activity centers, office parks, and industrial parks, provided the city makes findings to demonstrate consistency with constitutional requirements. "Nearby" means uses within 1/4 mile that can reasonably be expected to be used by pedestrians, and uses within 2 miles that can reasonably be expected to be used by bicyclists. Requirements for bicycle or pedestrian connections to adjacent areas have been addressed in EC 9.6820 and EC 9.683 5, the findings for which are incorporated herein by reference..
