serve an identified need for the City, or an (arguably unreasonable) "cherry stem" annexation of <br />Highway 99. Given that it is highly unlikely that Site P4.8f would be annexable during the planning <br />period, expanding the UGB to include it for industrial employment would create "phantom" capacity, <br />failing to meet the goals of the expansion. Overall economic consequences of expanding the UGB onto <br />this site for industrial use would be negative. <br />Social: Expanding the UGB for industrial use in this location would have neutral social consequences <br />given the separation from residential areas. Overall social consequences from expanding onto this site <br />for industrial use would be neutral. <br />Summary: Due to the economic challenges of developing this site during the planning period, as well as <br />other environmental, energy, economic and social concerns, Site P4.8f is discarded from further <br />consideration. <br />Site P4.8g - <br />This site is an 84.6 acre unconstrained tax lot designated Agricultural. It is immediately adjacent to the <br />current UGB on its eastern edge, where land inside the UGB is designated Heavy Industrial and Light <br />Medium Industrial. Rural land not under consideration surrounding the site is designated Government <br />and Education. The site is bordered by Highway 99 to the east. <br />Environmental: Expansion onto this site for industrial purposes would create an industrial site adjacent <br />other potential industrial sites and the Eugene Airport, and significantly separated from active <br />agriculture. This separation could significantly limit potential environmental consequences. Overall <br />environmental consequences from expanding onto this site for industrial use would be neutral. <br />Energy: The mix of surrounding uses and the adjacency of this site to the current UGB and airport <br />suggests positive energy impacts due to efficient location of employment relative to other uses. Overall <br />energy consequences from expanding onto this site for industrial use would be positive. <br />Economic: A UGB expansion to include Site P4.8g would have positive economic consequences, as it is <br />contiguous with both the UGB and the city limits, making it immediately developable. This site is also <br />collocated near multiple other potential industrial expansion sites, allowing for efficiencies in the cost to <br />extend urban services to this site. Overall economic consequences from expanding onto this site for <br />industrial use would be positive. <br />Social: Expanding the UGB for industrial use in this location would have neutral social consequences <br />given the separation from residential areas. Should several of the potential sites in a contiguous area be <br />selected for industrial expansion, the collective impact would have both positive consequences of an <br />employment hub and potential negative consequences resulting in additional regulation. Overall social <br />consequences from expanding onto this site for industrial use would be neutral. <br />Summary: Due to minimal environmental, energy, economic and social concerns associated with <br />expanding on this site, Site P4.8g is considered as a candidate industrial expansion site in Section Ill.g, <br />below. <br />Appendix B to Findings May 2017 Page 115 <br />
