River Road Community Organization DD <br />River Road-Santa Clara Neighborhood Planning JAM <br />Recommendation Letter—July 2023 CcAll <br />by multifamily housing that ironically will create an even greater need for the commercial <br />properties they replace. We encourage the City to conduct a feasibility study to determine how to <br />encourage more commercial services in the River Road/Santa Clara area. <br />3. Need for Neighborhood Specific Regulations for the River Road Corridor: We continue to believe <br />that we need neighborhood-specific regulations to guide the development of the River Road <br />corridor. We appreciate the C2 code changes proposed instead of a special area zone but <br />recommend that you reconsider a one-size-fits-all ordinance for all seven corridors, as proposed to <br />be enacted in 2026. <br />We wish to recognize the efforts of the Eugene Planning staff, the RRCO and SCCO boards, the <br />Community Advisory Committee, and all of the members of our joint communities who have engaged <br />with us over these past 6 years to reach this milestone. It is our hope that we will continue to <br />collaborate over the coming years as we work to implement the Action Plan and resolve our parking, <br />commercial, and corridor issues. <br />With kindest regards, <br />River Road Community Organization Board Members <br />
