HomeMy WebLinkAbout3-1-17 Appeal Hearing – Hearing ExhibitsftL q Hearing Testimony, March 1, 2017 Appellant: Friends of Amazon Creek By William Collinge, Chair PO Box 5604, Eugene, OR 97405 My name is William Collinge, representing Friends of Amazon Creek. I live on Kincaid and use the intersection of 32nd and Hilyard twice a day to and from work. This hearing is happening because neighbors who would be directly affected by traffic impacts of this development are appealing the City's approval of the applicant's traffic impact analysis. While we welcome the general concept of the development here, there are serious flaws and omissions in the analysis that the City failed to recognize, and must be addressed. We've had to hire our own land use planner and traffic engineer to prepare this testimony. Our main concerns are (1) the unrealistic assumptions about traffic flow generated by the development, and lack of mitigation; (2) inadequate attention to safety of pedestrians and cyclists; and (3) a serious lack of sufficient onsite parking that would drive people to park in front of our homes. Most of the homes in this neighborhood were built in the 60's and the norm is a single story, two or three bedroom house with a single width driveway. US Department of Transportation data says two-person households average two vehicles each, and many households in this neighborhood depend on "street parking" in front of their home for their second--or sometimes third--vehicle. Amazon Corner needs enough spaces for 117 new households, which easily could have two or three vehicles each; plus any of their visitors, plus employees for several ground level businesses, plus their customers and service vehicles. The 159 spaces proposed are not at all realistic for the whole development, and will drive overflow parking into the neighborhood. We would welcome Amazon Corner if it could be a source of enrichment for the neighborhood without being a burden on its neighbors. We're asking for a thorough and complete traffic impact analysis that reflects realistic needs for onsite parking, traffic mitigation and safety in the area. Introducing Eben Fodor: Eben Fodor holds Masters degrees in Urban and Regional Planning, and Environmental Studies. He has 25 years of professional experience in the urban planning field. H E #2 Hearing Testimony, March 1, 2017, Amazon Corner TIA Appeal Appellant: Southeast Neighbors Association & FOAC Dennis Hebert, Southeast Neighbors Board Good afternoon. I am Dennis Hebert. I am on the Southeast Neighbors Board and here representing the Southeast Neighborhood Association members. The reason we are appealing the initial TIA is that a general meeting was held of the Association to discuss the Amazon Corner development. While several issues were discussed concerning adverse effects of the development to the neighborhood, an overwhelming majority of the attending members asked that the TIA be appealed. At that time, Mr. William Collinge, Chair of Friends of Amazon Creek, stated that his organization also felt strongly about the traffic impact of Amazon Corner and they would be willing to lead a fundraising effort and assume the financial responsibility of the appeal. We, Southeast Neighbors Board, felt that was a good co-operative community endeavor and signed on for support of the appeal. 4E WRITTEN TESTIMONY FROM: James Brock 3092 Onyx Place Eugene, OR 97405 appreciate the opportunity to address your hearing. I find it disappointing that in the process so little attention is paid to the people who actually live in the neighborhood. We are the users of the roadways, sidewalks, and bicycle paths. We actually experience daily the extreme problems associated with the general area of 32nd and Hilyard. My comments are to be taken as supportive and explanatory of what others will present. We have little influence when the builder hires highly payed engineers to respond to the waiver requested. They know "just what to say, or not say" to convince the Planning Department want to hear. We the neighbors have to pony up donation money to pay for our representative for this hearing. Briefly some points that I believe have been overlooked or not given sufficient consideration. First, according to the 2013 City of Eugene traffic count for Hilyard Street between 3 0th and 32nd has the highest traffic of any street in Eugene EXCEPT for what us old timers call the old highway 99 that went through town. Started in Glenwood went through Franklin Boulevard and continued through town on 6t" and 7t" Avenue. This is a perspective of the size of the issue on front of the proposed building. Secondly, the engineering report mentioned the bus stop on Hilyard adjacent to the building. They failed to mention a bus stops twice an hour. Given the minimum time a bus stops at three minutes, this totals at least six minutes per hour. On an hourly basis the northbound right lane is totally stopped for 10% of the time. Traffic backs up all the way to 32nd during these times. The engineers glossed over this issue. The engineer's report used traffic counts in the afternoon, we who live in the neighborhood know traffic in this area COMPRESSES considerably more in the "drive time" in the morning. Seems obvious. Next, on a long term basis the traffic will be increasing considerably on Hilyard. The City of Eugene has an active policy promoting infilling. I have not seen the the Residential Land Supply 2012-2032 map presented. It clearly shows considerable amount of land is available for residential lots. A map is attached. The traffic on Hilyard is going to increase considerably in the future as people drive to and from Dillard and Fox Hollow Roads. Not mentioned in the engineer's study was the northbound lane of Hilyard between 25th and 28th truncates down to ONE LANE. Not mentioned either the additional traffic that will be created when the new Y is constructed on corner of 24th and Hilyard. A considerable amount of attention has been given to the terrible corner of 32nd and Hilyard, enough said, will leave that out. The engineers report glossed over the considerable problem of traffic on Alder 32ndStreet between 32nd and 30th Avenue. Virtually all drivers going to Lane College, the 1-5 freeway, Springfield, and taking Harris Street to the U of 0 will take a left turn out of the parking lot on 32nd, drive about sixty feet and will make a left turn onto Alder and turn right on 30th Avenue. No doubt about it. During drive time a school bus picks drives east on 32nd Here is an issue never addressed, the speed of traffic on Alder. When people in the morning are late to work or class they drive fast. I know this because on Onyx Place, where live, these early morning commuters drive extremely fast to make up time, just the way it is. People on University Street experience the same thing. A considerable problem is Alder Street from the Willamette River and exiting onto East Amazon which is a dedicated bicycle path. It is the "bicycle freeway" from all of south Eugene from the river. I read, almost without belief, the City's response to the issue at the corner of 32nd and Alder going south. They said they didn't have a traffic count. Goes without saying, the street is blocked off. Without blocking off the southbound traffic on Alder people would drive south on it as the only alternative to get away from the terrible corner of 32nd and Hilyard coupled with the stop light at 33rd. People will do anything they can to keep off Hilyard if they want to go south, especially to Dillard Road and Fox Hollow Road. drive 32nd at least three times a day. Drivers go around the barrier ALL THE TIME. TAKING IT THE OTHER WAY, why would the Transportation Department put the barrier except for stopping the traffic south on Alder? How did they justify this to the neighbors? There must be a traffic count somewhere they don't want to show or they have lost it. This barrier is "in your face" evidence that the traffic issues on Hilyard at 32nd has been an issue in the past and still is. Nothing really new. Quick point, I see people driving through the alley and coming out through the private parking lot by The Pad and Mazzi's on to East Amazon. The Transportation Department does not want to mention this because it is illegal. A quick point regarding safety. During the winter months the height of the building creates solar shading on the park sidewalk and the east end of 31St Street. This does not allow the sun to melt frost in the shaded area until later in the morning. Bicycle riders on the paths and pedestrians using the sidewalk are subject to serious injury. (I know this is true, at 7:40 AM on February 11t", I had a serious fall on an icy surface at my house which is in an area with solar shading in the early morning hours.) If the building height was reduced to four floors as originally propose to the public this would not be a problem. THE POINT OF ALL THIS, THE HIGH VOLUME OF TRAFFIC FROM THE PROPOSED BUILDING WILL MAKE A VERY BAD SITUTION CONSIDERABLY WORSE. AS A MEMBER OF THIS COMMUNITY FOR OVER 41 YEARS I AM VERY AWARE OF THE ISSUES REGARDING TRAFFIC AT THE CORNER OF 32ND AND HILYARD AND THE BICYCLE PATH ON ALDER STREET. I HAVE A RIGHT TO DEMAND THAT YOU DO NOT APPROVE THIS APPLICATION FROM THE BUILDER. I SUPPORT DEVELOPING THE CORNER, IT WILL BE GOOD FOR THE NEIGHBORHOOD. BUT THE BUILDING PROPOSED WILL MAKE TRAFFIC ISSSUES CONSIDERABLY WORSE. IF THE BUILDING WAS SCALED BACK TO WHAT WAS ORIGINALLY PROPOSED IT WOULD BE A REAL ASSET TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND TRAFFIC ISSUES WOULD BE MINIMAL. I AM GIVING A COPY OF MY COMMENTS TO THE CHAIRPERSON.

In downtown, apartments can be more concentrated inside high rise buildings, and Eugene downtown's many-laned streets can accommodate the extra traffic that's generated. A 5-story building is not unique in downtown, but it is completely out of character with the neighborhood in which Amazon Corner developers propose to build. Three stories, in my opinion, is not in keeping with the neighborhood profile. 2 stories seem more reasonable, but at least three stories is far more reasonable than 5-stories for that location. Density increased = liveability denied. Neighborhood Density My partner and I did a back of the envelope sketch to show of how proposed density will compare to current density. We counted ourselves and our neighbors for %2 block -about 15 people (conservatively estimating about 2-3 people per house). Using that calculation, the Amazon Corner project is equivalent to somewhere from 7 to 15 blocks of residents, in one of these three scenarios: 1. If there is one person per apartment (117), the one block-sized Amazon Corner is equal to 7.8 blocks of people - even if only one person per residence (which we know will not be the case). So, stack 7.8 blocks of people into 5 stories. 2. If there is one person for each Amazon Corner parking space (159), the one block-sized Amazon Corner is equal to 10.6 blocks. So stack 10.6 blocks into 5 stories. 3. But we know that Amazon Corner has not adequately addressed parking. They've already asked for space in the Peace Health parking lot across the street for evening parking. Many of these apartments will have 2 or more residents. If two people per apartment, the resident load will be more like 15 % blocks of residents (and their cars) in a one-block space. This is completely incongruent with our neighborhood. Additionally, you know that when people are shown these apartments, and told that there is one parking space per household, they'll also be told, "Oh, there's plenty of parking on side streets." "Side streets" - otherwise known to us as: OUR NEIGHBORHOOD. Inadequate Parking The developer clearly is not offering enough parking to accommodate its expected residents - nor to accommodate the patrons of the restaurants and shops envisioned for the site. The developer plans for 117 apartments, but only 159 parking spaces for residents and shops/restaurants alike. There has been vague talk about some amorphous connection between the Testimony for Eugene City Council - Hope Marston, SE Eugene resident - March 1, 2017 fact that the property owner also owns Burley - and that Burley connection somehow adds up to fewer cars on site. Reality check: Even bikers and walkers have cars, and need to park those cars. And they will drive those cars. If this development doesn't provide enough parking, it's requesting welfare from the surrounding community to provide what the development is not providing. That would be foisting the daily cost of dealing with too many extra cars - on residents of the neighborhood. The developer shirks paying the true full cost of his project. This does not fall under the definition of being a good neighbor. Most households have 1 or 2 (or more) vehicles, so I think it is prudent to plan this development to provide sufficient parking to accommodate at least 2 cars per apartment. If sufficient parking is not planned, this development becomes an invasion of neighborhood streets for parking. This is expropriation of our neighborhood for someone else's profit. On Mazzi's Pizza Tuesdays, we already see cars lining surrounding streets, and though I am not one of the people whose parking strips are clogged with cars on those nights - it is limited to just a few hours on one night a week during the summer. Now multiply that situation every day and night of the week. We do not deserve this much disruption in our neighborhood. This project is at least 75 spaces short of adequate parking for residents. That does not even include parking needed for the shops and restaurants planned for the space. As you know, people park their cars at home. They don't move their cars until they're ready to drive somewhere. So if you're building 117 apartments, you know that probably means up to 234 parking spaces needed on a 24/7 basis. So, even if Peace Health opens up its parking spaces in the evenings, that is a miniscule mitigation. It will not even start to address the parking deficit. Hugely Increased Traffic, Congestion, Safety Issues Amazon Corner proposes to encroach on a sleepy neighborhood of single family residences that encompass many blocks of residents who count on using 32"d and Hilyard to access the rest of Eugene. If you add hundreds of new cars into that scenario, and we will have several problems: 1) Enormous traffic congestion 2) Chaos at 32"d and Hilyard in morning and evening rush hours 3) Kids and older people taking their lives in their hands to cross at 32nd and Hilyard. 4) Many drivers trying to head south on Hilyard from 32"d will turn right on Hilyard and left onto 315tand left onto Ferry, since increased traffic will make a left turn at 32nd and Hilyard impossible most of the time. This left-turn workaround potentially endangers children on Ferry Street, for which there is no sidewalk, and so young children without the safety of sidewalks must reckon with impatient drivers who have been thwarted from a legitimate left hand turn because of a needless traffic burden. 5) People on Alder and Kincaid will be barraged by overflow cars parking in front of their houses - squeezing out opportunities for on-street parking for residents' friends and family. Testimony for Eugene City Council - Hope Marston, SE Eugene resident - March 1, 2017 G 6) Drivers seeking to escape the traffic pileup on 32nd will use University, Potter, Harris and Kincaid to gain access to drive into Eugene. We already have an occasional outside-the-neighborhood car treating our streets as hot-rod heaven, causing us to fear for our pets and children. If Amazon Corner is built as proposed, hot rod heaven will become our norm, because of an injection of drivers who will zoom down our streets, looking for a way out of the bottleneck at 32nd and Hilyard. 7) Lowered property values for Alder especially - who wants to have a 5-story dark shadow looming over a private back yard? These homes would become defacto movie theaters for residents of Amazon Corner; an invasion of privacy for the Alder Street residents. Already I know of a friend who sold her house specifically to avoid the lack of backyard privacy, construction noise and potential lower property values - as costs of dealing with Amazon Corner. This is a project which must be scaled back to fit the setting chosen for it. It is not up to the Planning Department to help make this pencil out economically for the developer. It currently doesn't fit the neighborhood. It poses a threat to safety and smooth movement of traffic. It adds unreasonable demands on residents of the surrounding blocks to provide parking for the development - a form of welfare. The City of Eugene must set parameters to protect our neighborhood from a project that either must be a smaller building, or belongs somewhere else. Please take Southeast Neighbors into consideration - our homes / our lives in which WE have invested for many years and many more. R1 -~5 TWA-P_. V A r-+- I'm not anti-growth or anti-development. I'm in favor of smart, responsible growth & development that respects the character of the existing neighborhood. This proposed 5-story building does not do that. Your study by Sandow Engineering concluding that Amazon Corner will add to traffic, but "will not degrade the mobility of the studied intersections" to below city standards is absolutely absurd. The traffic impact analysis was inadequate and deeply flawed because it only looked at traffic patterns between 4 and 6 pm, instead of other high-traffic times like morning work commutes and immediately after schools let out. It did not look at the true impacts of: Trips Generated, Impact on Neighbors, Spillover, Turns & Car Refuge, Speed, Mitigation & School Buses. The proposed 117 residential units, stacked up at this location exceeds the total number lining the entire length of the Amazon Creek Corridor along both East and West Amazon from 33rd all the way to the end at Martin Street. The building will have mini-studios of 1 person, studios with possibly 2 people, 1 bedrooms with possibly 3 people & 2 bedrooms with possibly 5 people by occupancy standards. How many cars will need parking and trips will be generated from these people. This will more than double the traffic in the area, especially with the added businesses and restaurants. The area is already congested during peak times. Traffic will spillover into the residential streets to avoid the bottleneck. There'll be alternate travel routes into the neighborhoods to avoid the Hilyard and 32nd/30th congestion. Passage down 31st, 33rd & 34th Avenues to Willamette Street will affect the Southwest Hills Neighborhood. Re parking, clearly 159 surface & underground onsite parking spaces are no enough to accommodate the 117 plus residents, guests, employees, retail & restaurant patrons, garbage/recycling trucks, commercial supply trucks, building maintenance/service vehicles for such a large multi-use development. Parking will spillover to 32nd Ave, Alder St and beyond. The traffic impact analysis is quite deficient and incomplete. Many questions about the impact of increased traffic and overflow parking in the surrounding residential area are left unanswered. Neighbors who would be directly impacted by poor planning and mitigation of these impacts are concerned and are supporting this appeal. We're asking the Hearing Officer to call for a complete and thorough traffic impact analysis. The City is responsible for the safety of pedestrians, bicyclists and people in vehicles. We don't want to have a fatality to prove that responsible traffic mitigation is needed in this area of Eugene. On February 28th I talked with Erik Berg-Johansen wanting answers but Clot few. This questions are all valid when looking at the true impact of this proposed 5-story development concerning parking, traffic, etc. to this neighborhood. How many business spaces are planned? 14,000 sq ft was mentioned What kind of businesses are planned? Don't know. Is there less commercial now, with the allowed lower level residential units? Don't know. The parking is based on sq footage, and commercial has higher demands for parking. Is that why residential is now planned for the lower level? Don't know. The developer has met multi-family standards with exemptions because of the lower level housing. Erik doesn't know, If it is 108 or 117 residential units? Erik doesn't know, If there are 9 added units or if they are on the lower level? Erik doesn't know, Did parking requirements stay the same, increase or decrease? It is 1 parking space per unit, not per bedroom. The builder can ask fora parking space reduction. The building variance changed the length of building frontage on Hilvard St but did not increase the square footaq_e of the building footprint. Erik doesn't know, How many mini-studios, studios, 1 bedrooms & 2 bedrooms, etc? Erik doesn't know, Can they increase the number of units or building height now? Erik doesn't know, What is the estimated number of people per unit? The occupancy limits in Oregon from Oregon Rental Housing Association, Inc www.oregonrentalhousing.com 503-364-5468 It is 2 in a bedroom and 1 in the living room. With children under 2 years old not counting. So a 2 bedroom could have 5 people. A 1 bedroom could have 3 people. A studio could have 2 people. (The minimum studio size can be 120 sq ft for living area & 70 sq ft for kitchen.) ORHA is unsure of what a mini-studio could be. The City sent this re housing info. 9.2737 Residential Occupancy Requirements. Occupancy of a dwelling is limited by the definition of family at EC 9.0500. The city manager may require a property owner to provide copies of lease or rental agreements documenting compliance with occupancy limits. 9.0500 Family. A person living alone, or any of the following groups living together as a single nonprofit housekeeping unit and sharing common living, sleeping, cooking and eating facilities: 2 (A) Any number of persons related by blood, marriage, adoption, guardianship or other duly- authorized custodial relationship; (B) A maximum of 5 unrelated persons, (C) Two unrelated persons and any parents or children related to either. This info is to support possible parking needs and the traffic generated from this development. It does not even address the retail parking needs or those vehicle's traffic impact. Erik doesn't know, Will there be a Cell Tower (possibly 30 feet tall) on top? With all of these changes does the city have an updated current building plan? Nom. The Traffic Impact Analysis Report is only on their proposed 108 units, not 117 units & 14,000 sa, ft, the circulation of traffic on site of one entry/exit on Hilyard St & 32nd Avenue. They are closing down one on Hilyard St. Erik emailed City Code information on parking requirements for the retail space, but since it is all an unknown of what businesses and square footage of each, the math can not be accurately determined. The end of conversation with Erik. An Envision Eugene pillar states, "To protect, repair and enhance neighborhood livability". Three stories is appropriate and respectful to the livability of this Southeast neighborhood, not five. The Amazon Corner development would be welcomed if it were 3 stories high, because it would lower the vehicle usage associated with the building. There would be fewer traffic impact issues, street parking problems and traffic mitigation needs. It would be more compatible with the existing neighborhood, have less light pollution at night, and more solar access for surrounding residences. It would respect the concerns of the neighbor re safety, traffic congestion and parking overspill onto the street. It would protect the property values of neighboring residences instead of devaluing them. I believe these are legitimate Southeast neighborhood community concerns. This proposed building will be 2.8 times taller than Albertsons next door. If the developer were to change his plans to 3 stories, as he previously entertained, the livability of this area would be less affected by traffic and the above mentioned issues. The neighborhood would be protected, enhanced, and then the neighbors could welcome Amazon Corner. The development's building size relates to vehicle parking and traffic impact!

It's difficult even during other times of the day. I don't even try to make a left. It's too dangerous, and takes too long. Instead, I drive all the way up 31St and turn right onto Willamette St in order to go into downtown Eugene. I believe if 100 apartments and several retail stores are built on Hilyard St between 31st and 32nd Avenues, it will cause a currently difficult situation to become a traffic nightmare. 100 apartments can result in 150 cars, because many families have 2 vehicles. Add to that, the traffic from the retail stores, who will have customers coming and going for 9 or 10 hours each day, and you can see how this area will have traffic gridlock. There's a light at 30th and Hilyard that causes traffic to back up now, but with that much more traffic, E. 31St Avenue will become a major thoroughfare for vehicles trying to reach downtown Eugene. They will do what I do: they'll drive up 31St Ave to Willamette. Our quiet, residential street of 1-family homes will become the easiest and fastest way for people to get to downtown Eugene. It will result in constant traffic on my street, and will also result in more traffic on Willamette St. heading north. I'm very concerned that my quiet residential street will become a major thoroughfare for access to downtown. Another issue is safety: there is a bicycle crossing on E 31St Ave., very close to the intersection with Hilyard St. The chances of a pedestrian or bicyclist getting hit by a vehicle at this crossing will be greatly increased with the increase in vehicular traffic caused by this development. /71 HE #8 Staff Presentation Amazon Corner Appeal of Traffic Impact Analysis TIA 16-7 i -7--) Zoning Map ~ PL II HE #8 Staff Presentation ioro osai ■ 5-story mixed use building and associated site improvements ■ 108 apartments, 1SF commercial space ■ Surface lot and underground parking with 150+ parking spaces HE #8 Staff Presentation i rairiric impact iminaiysis ■ Streets will be impacted by PM traffic ■ Crosswalk across Hilyard Street to connect site to Amazon path ■ Road striping upgrade on East 31St Avenue HE #8 Staff Presentation ■ Planning Director's approval appealed by SE Neighbors and Friends of Amazon Creek ■ Staff provided an Agenda Item Summary to summarize the appeal issues ■ Adjustment Review approval not appealed HE #8 Staff Presentation i i imi imi rovai criteria EC 9.8680(1) Traffic control devices and public or private improvements as necessary to achieve the purposes listed in this section will be implemented.
