EC 9.6870 Street Width Pursuant to EC 9.6870, the right-of-way and paving widths of streets shall conform to those widths designated on the adopted Street Right-of-Way map. When a street segment right-of- way width is not designated on the adopted Street Right-of-Way map, the required street width shall be the minimum width shown for its type in Table 9.6870 Right-of-Way and Paving Widths. A greater width can be required based on adopted plans and policies, adopted Design Standards and Guidelines for Eugene Streets, Sidewalks, Bikeways and Accessways or other factors which in the judgment of the Planning and Public Works Director necessitate a greater street width.

Per EC Table 9.6870, low volume local streets are required to have between 20 and 28 feet of paving width along with 45 to 55 feet of right-of-way width. The existing 50 foot right-of-way exceeds the minimum required right-of-way width of 45 feet for local streets and is also sufficient to construct the required improvements in Capital Drive, which includes a 21 foot wide paved street with curbs and gutters on both sides and a 5-foot wide curbside sidewalk on the east side of the street. proposed paving and right-of-way widths comply with the widths identified in Table 9.6870.

Based on these findings, Public Works staff confirms that no additional dedication or special setbacks for street right-of-way are required. EC 9.6873 Slope Easements Slope easements may be required to facilitate the construction of public streets and alleys and t terrain, slope easements may be required Further, proposed slope easements are depicted on Sheet L2.0 Tentative: Site Plan. Since the extent of slope easements will not be known for certain until the PEPI permitting process, the requirement for slope easements will be determined at the time of the subsequent subdivision application and required to be shown on the final plat.
