All of these features <br />establish an interconnected system within the development site and provide direct routes between <br />destination points and Franklin Boulevard. By maintaining and enabling connection to the path <br />and increasing site connectivity, Policies F.22 and F.24 are addressed. <br /> <br />Transportation System Improvements: Pedestrian <br />F.26. Provide for a pedestrian environment that is well integrated with <br />adjacent land uses and is designed to enhance the safety, comfort, and <br />convenience of walking. <br />F.27. Provide for a continuous pedestrian network with reasonably direct <br />travel routes between destination points. <br />The proposal is designed to foster a vibrant and active pedestrian environment that is integrated <br />with on-site and adjacent uses. Provisions of the S-RP Zone ensure high-quality public amenities <br />along the riverfront including bike parking, ample setbacks to preserve the riverbank and natural <br />areas, adequate lighting, and controlled building mass and scale to preserve viewsheds. The <br />proposal provides for a continuous pedestrian network via realignment of the Ruth Bascom <br />Riverbank Path, as illustrated on Sheets L02 and L05 Site Plan and Service Vehicle Primary <br />Circulation Plan (Exhibit A), as well as several possible crossings to improve circulation on the site, <br />as shown on Sheet L03 Pedestrian and Bicycle Primary Circulation Plan (Exhibit A). These <br />crossings serve to provide better access from Franklin Boulevard into the site, or across the <br />railroad tracks. While the exact locations of these crossings are to be determined, additional <br />crossings will foster a safer and more accessible pedestrian and cyclist environment. All of these <br />features establish an interconnected system within the development site and provide direct routes <br />between destination points and Franklin Boulevard. The proposal does not involve arterial or <br />collector roadways. Based on these findings, the proposal is consistent with Policies F.26 and <br />F.27. <br /> <br /> <br />Public Facilities and Services Element <br />Services to Development Within the Urban Growth Boundary: Planning and <br />Coordination <br />G.5. The cities shall continue joint planning coordination with major <br />institutions, such as universities and hospitals, due to their relatively <br />large impact on local facilities and services. <br />The proposal, in part, is a result of joint planning coordination between the City of Eugene and the <br />University of Oregon through participation and involvement in the planning process. Based on <br />these findings, the proposal is compliant with Policy G.5. <br />Services to Development Within the Urban Growth Boundary: Storm water <br />G.16. Manage or enhance waterways and open storm water systems to <br />reduce water quality impacts from runoff and to improve storm water <br />conveyance. <br />G.19. Maintain flood storage capacity within the floodplain, to the maximum <br />Cameron McCarthy FINAL SUBMITTAL | June 22, 2018 64 <br /> <br />
