ACTION <br />® RENT ALL& EVENTS <br />Kevin & Lora Journey <br />121 River Ave <br />This letter is being written on behalf of Action Rent -All and its 18 employees. Action had a vision to <br />better service its local customers in the River Road area by purchasing new land, expanding and growing <br />the business that built this neighborhood, If this code change is adopted it will force Action to relocate <br />where they are welcome and able to expand with their growing community to fit the needs of their <br />customers. <br />If the plan objective was to eliminate motor vehicle uses, then why was the trade (retail & wholesale) <br />included in this plan. Action offers the contractor and everyday home owner the ability to use a piece of <br />equipment without owning it at the convenience of being in there back yard. By renting instead of <br />owning we are cutting down on the carbon footprint of the future by reuse, recycle and less <br />manufacturing. <br />River Ave was not included in the Plan but City staff decided it was easier to include and that is how we <br />got here. A commercial street with good commercial businesses serving its community well, being told <br />that we will be nonconforming and will not be able to expand and grow with the community. By <br />eliminating these businesses it will increase traffic and the carbon footprint because of the excess <br />driving needed to get to these essential businesses new locations. <br />In summary we are thanking you and everyone's time invested in this plan but hope you will reconsider <br />the negative conquests it will have on our local businesses and your future time that will be needed <br />because of these changes. <br />1. At very least the lack of a site specific plan will allow for more appeals and site reviews <br />2. The lack of parking or enforcement of undeveloped street parking <br />3. Draft code amendments are not consistent with State wide Planning Goals <br />4. Draft codes amendments are not consistent with the comprehensive plan and the draft RRSC <br />Pian <br />5. The new restrictions would go against the Eugene Comprehensive Plan "Business retention and <br />expansion. Facilitate the retention and growth of existing businesses in the community" <br />
