Therefore, it is clear that the <br />proposed amendments do not trigger the need to consider Goal 5 pursuant to OAR 660-023- <br />0250(3)(a) or 3(c). <br />Some analysis is required to determine whether OAR 660-023-0250(3)(b) triggers the need to further <br />consider Goal S requirements. Subsection (3)(b) asks whether'[t]he PAPA allows new uses that could <br />be conflicting uses with a particular significant Goal S resource site on an acknowledged resource list." <br />Significant Goal 5 resource sites and acknowledged lists are documented in the 2005 Eugene Goal 5 <br />Water Resource Conservation Plan and the 1978 Goal 5 Inventor and Metro Natural Assets & <br />Constraints Working Papers. <br />Natural Resources <br />Exhibit B.1: Willamette Greenway Permit Plan Set, Exhibit G: Riverfront Ecological Analysis and Design <br />Report, and Exhibit N: Wetland Delineation Report document natural features on the subject site and <br />provide relevant information in addressing these Goal 5 requirements. The eastern portion of the <br />subject site is within the Willamette River Greenway, a natural asset, as identified in the Metro Natural <br />Assets & Constraints Working Paners.5 The Willamette River is adjacent to the subject site and is <br />identified as a Goal 5 Water Resource by the Goal 5 Water Resource Conservation Plan.6 <br />As identified on the Adopted Protection Designations for the Eugene Goal 5 Wetland, Riparian, and <br />Upland Wildlife Habitat Inventories Map dated November 14, 2005, the Willamette River is <br />categorized as a Category A Stream. All parcels within the subject site that abut the Willamette River <br />have /WR Water Resource Conservation overlay zoning. Pursuant to EC 9.4920(1)(c)(1.), Category A <br />streams with a distinguishable high bank have a 100 foot setback applied to top of bank (TOB) as part <br />of the /WR overlay zoning. The Willamette River adjacent the development site features a <br />distinguishable high bank. The existing high bank was surveyed by OBEC Consulting Engineers on <br />June 13, 2011 and is shown on Sheets S1.0 and S1.1 Existing Conditions Plans (Exhibit B.1) and labeled <br />as "top of bank". Exhibit N: Wetland Delineation Report identifies jurisdiction wetland and waters <br />boundaries along the Willamette River. The proposed amendments do not change protections <br />S Eugene Goal 5 Inventor and Metro Natural Assets & Constraints Working Parsers. Willamette River Greenway <br />Working Paper.
