5. Continue existing programs that support preservation and <br />maintenance of existing affordable housing stock. These programs <br />benefit both low income homeowners and renters and include <br />funding for acquisition of existing rental housing, rental rehabilita- <br />tion loans, homeowner rehabilitation loans, and emergency home <br />repair loans. <br />6. A determination to expand the UGB to meet single-family <br />residential needs has not yet been made. If expansion is necessary, <br />adopt development guidelines and requirements that promote <br />housing options, increase housing affordability, reinforce compact <br />urban development and promote neighborhood compatibility. <br />Development guidelines and requirements could include: <br />• Design standards, in collaboration with ICS, to address <br />compatibility. <br />• Flexible land use codes, such as opportunities to reduce <br />minimum allowable lot size from 4,500 square feet, to <br />create smaller houses, and to create a greater mix of <br />housing types for different income levels. <br />• Financial incentives, such as variable SDCs, to encourage <br />smaller lot/smaller home development. <br />• Planned location for new key transportation facilities and <br />utilities. <br />Prairie View - Affordable Housing <br />The Eugene -Springfield 2010 <br />Consolidated Plan presents a <br />strategic vision for housing and <br />community development for the <br />period beginning in July 2010 and <br />ending in June 2015.The goals, <br />strategies, and activities outlined <br />in the Consolidated Plan are <br />based on priorities identified <br />through an analysis of community <br />needs and an extensive commu- <br />nity outreach process.
