Oakleigh Lane. Eugene, Oregon <br />April 18, 2017 <br />Page: 2 of 5 <br />way and paving configuration where those standards are applicable. Thus, it is impossible to verify this <br />assertion from the information provided. <br />The third statement is accurate and is a factor that was addressed in the Nemariam Report's <br />assessment. <br />While the fourth statement is accurate, it is incomplete. The photographic evidence and statements <br />from the City, which were included as exhibits in the Nemariam Report establish that: <br />a) Parking is legal on the paving within the right-of-way, and <br />b) Parking occurs on the paved area within the right-of-way. Nemariam Report, pages 1, 2, 4 <br />(Table I), page 9 and Exhibits D.1, E.1 & E.2. Such parking, although legal, would create a <br />potential impediment to emergency access via 14-foot-wide paving along the 250-foot segment <br />that the Nemariam Report assessed. There are no Parking prohibitions anywhere along the road <br />segment. <br />The second paragraph of Mr. Gillespie's memo provides the following assertions. My response follows <br />each, in turn. <br />• "[T]he applicant's engineer submitted testimony that identifies the trip impacts from the <br />proposed development site." <br />Response: "trip impacts" appears to refer to the projection of Average Daily Trips (ADT), which <br />were considered in the Nemariam Report's assessment. The ADT across the 250-foot, narrow <br />segment would more than triple from approximately 67 vehicles per day to approximately 235 <br />vehicles per day. Nemariam Report, page 2. <br />"The applicant dedicated the appropriate width of right of way along the frontage of the <br />development site." <br />Response: This "frontage" segment of Oakleigh Lane is east of the 250-foot, narrow segment <br />that must be traversed by all vehicles entering or leaving the proposed PUD site. Nemariam <br />Report, page 2 and Exhibit C. As such, this would have no effect on the analysis or conclusions. <br />• "Oakleigh Lane is a local rural road in Lane County jurisdiction and not located within the City <br />of Eugene." <br />Response: The Nemariam Report did not address which local body(ies) have jurisdiction over <br />Oakleigh Lane, and that factor would not affect the report's assessment of the actual conditions, <br />capacity, safety or potential impediments present on Oakleigh Lane. The Eugene Planning <br />Commission is the local decision making body regarding the proposed PUD. Appropriately, the <br />Nemariam Report's assessment considered for reference those street standards that Eugene's <br />elected officials have adopted. <br />• "The roadway was dedicated and improved as a rural access way to LAR standards." <br />Response: This statement doesn't describe the "LAR standards" or the right-of-way and paving <br />configuration where those standards are applicable. Thus, it is impossible to verify this assertion <br />from the information provided. <br />"The roadway has existed and functioned in its currently capacity for the entirety of its <br />existence." <br />Response: This statement doesn't consider the roadway's "capacity" for a proposed <br />development of 29 new dwellings at its terminus, and is not a factor that would affect the <br />SABA, C.E.S. - Beaverton, OR 503-888-7553 sabaces100@gmail.com <br />
