width between 20 and 28 feet. Dublin Avenue was improved with half street improvements of 18-feet of paving width, curbs and gutters and sidewalks along the east side of the centerline under City Contract 1998-0511. Dublin Avenue is currently lacking street trees and street lights. As shown on the site plan, the applicant proposes to dedicate additional right-of-way. This dedication will result is a right-of-way of 50 feet along the northern portion of the development site and 45 feet along the southern portion of the development site. As depicted on the site plan, the applicant proposes a half street improvement within Dublin Avenue, the improvement will result in a pavement width varying between 28-feet and 21-feet. In a point of testimony, Barbara Hurwich writes: "This dead end section of Dublin is a VERY narrow street, with no room to park or turn around. Unless the street is widened considerably, and a parking lane added, the additional traffic will create a hazardous condition to vehicles and people." The applicant intends to dedicate additional area to Dublin Avenue and widen the existing variable paving width. The proposed street within the development (i.e., Buster Lane) will be under City jurisdiction. Buster Lane will not be identified on the City's adopted street right-of-way map (Figure 60 of the Eugene 2035 Transportation System Plan (TSP)) or the Street Right-of-Way Map (Figure 61 of the Arterial Street Collector Plan (ASCP)). Buster Lane will function as an Access Lane. EC Table 9.6870 requires access lanes to have between 21 and 28 feet of paving width with 40 to 55 feet of right-of-way. The applicant proposes to construct Buster Lane to City standards for a 21-foot-wide street and to dedicate 40 feet of right-of-way. Based on the above findings, the applicant's proposal meets the street width and paving requirements of EC 9.6870 Street Width. EC 9.6873 Slope Easements: No slope easements are proposed or required.
