As discussed in EC9.6870 Street Width, which is incorporated by reference, there is no requirement for additional right-of-way dedication beyond what is proposed in Scenic Drive, Dublin Avenue, and Buster Lane. This is standards met. EC 9.6810 Block Length: The maximum block length for local streets shall not exceed 600 feet, unless an exception is granted per subsections (1-4). Based on the applicant's site plan the proposed block length would be roughly 365 feet, which is less than the maximum 600 feet. Based on these findings, the proposed development meets with the block length criteria starting at EC 9.6810. EC 9.6815(2) Street Connectivity Standards: This standard sets the requirements for extending streets and includes details on how and where the streets need to be extended. The subject property is in an area with a developed street system. Referral comments from Public Works provide analysis that explains how the existing area is developed. Based on the applicant's proposal and Public Works referral comments, this standard is met. (a) All streets and alleys shall be public unless the developer demonstrates that a public street or alley is not necessary for compliance with this land use code or the street connectivity standards of subparagraphs (b) through (f) of this subsection. The applicant proposes the construction of one public street. This standard is met. (b) The proposed development shall include street connections in the direction of all existing or planned streets within 1/4 mile of the development site. The proposed development shall also include street connections to any streets that abut, are adjacent to, or terminate at the development site. Two public streets abut the development site, Scenic Drive to the west and Dublin Avenue to the east. River Loop 2 and Scenic Drive are located within X mile of the development site to the south and north, respectively. The applicant proposes construction of a public street connecting Dublin Avenue and Scenic Drive. Testimony from Barabra Hurwich expresses a preference to have the subdivision exist solely to Scenic Drive. The proposal, as submitted, fulfils Eugene Code 9.6815(2)(b) by providing connecting street access to two existing streets that abut the development site. The planned street is proposed to have a bidirectional travel lane(s) as illustrated in the applicant's materials. This proposal meets the requirements of this standard. (c) The proposed development shall include streets that extend to undeveloped or partially developed land that is adjacent to the development site or that is separated July 2022 Findings & Decision of the Planning Director Page 6 of 22 Buster Place (ST 22-1)
