Employment, Parks, Schools Ordinance (County) (all other)- Planning Commission Recommendation (3 of 4)

Dismissal of Land with Slopes in Excess of 5 Percent Grade The United States Geological Survey's 10-meter digital elevation model shows that 6.6 acres of the land in Subarea P2.8 (6 percent) are constrained by slopes greater than 5%. Dismissal of Land within FEMA Flood Zones (Special Flood Hazard Area) 29.8 acres of the land in Subarea P2.8 (29 percent) is constrained by the FEMA mapped Special Flood Hazard Area. Dismissal of Land with Goal 5 Protections (natural resources) 0.1 acres of the land in Subarea P2.8 (less than 1 percent) is constrained by Lane County Goal 5 protections. Dismissal of Land with Existing Uses/ Development that makes Industrial Redevelopment Highly Unlikely in Planning Period Three (3) tax lots totaling 15.6 acres in Subarea P2.8 (15 percent) have existing uses or development that makes it highly unlikely that, if added to the UGB, the sites would be redeveloped for industrial uses. Two tax lots are used for wetland mitigation by the City of Eugene. The third tax lot is developed by Brownings Dog Ranch Tails Inn.26 This business already contributes to the employment of the region, and so adding this lot with the intent of converting it to a large-lot industrial properties would fail to meet the City's economic development needs, resulting in either the same number of jobs or a net loss, depending on employment density. Summary of Development Constraints In all, 51.9 acres of the land in Subarea P2.8 have one or more development constraints ("factors that temporarily or permanently limit or prevent the use of land for economic development" per OAR 660-009-005(2)). The remaining 52.1 acres of land in Subarea P2.8 are addressed below. 26 Were these tax lots not discarded for uses/development that make industrial redevelopment highly unlikely, they would be discarded for lack of access within one mile to a Freight Route.
