N <br />99 West 10 <br />nick. r.gioello@ci.eugene.or.us <br />From: Sarah Mazze [mailto:simazze@gmail.com] <br />Sent: Sunday, February 04, 2018 8:47 PM <br />To: GIOELLO Nick R <Nick.R.Gioello@ci.eugene.or.us> <br />Subject: Capitol Hill PUD <br />Nick Gioello, <br />I'm writing to ask a couple of questions related to my concern about the impact of the proposed Capital Hill <br />PUD on the Ribbon Trail and Hendricks Park. While I certainly support increasing the housing stock in <br />Eugene to address the housing shortage, I also believe that it's crucial that we protect those slivers of open <br />space that are left within the City where people can recharge and where native species have even the possibility <br />of thriving. <br />It's challenging for me to see just how much of a buffer is given to the Ribbon Trail and Hendricks Park from <br />the site plans, and I'll admit that I didn't make my way completely through the 188 page application. I see that <br />there is proposed preservation area on each tax lot and wonder how it is that this preservation area would be <br />enforced on an individual lot. It seems to me that there would be the greatest likelihood of that land being <br />protected if it were owned by the City, and that it's next best shot would be if the land were protected by the <br />HOA. <br />Thank you for getting back to me about this, as I'd like to submit public comment in a bit more detail. <br />Best, <br />z <br />
