we need neighborhood -specific regulations to guide the development of the River Road corridor. We appreciate the C2 code changes proposed instead of a special area zone but we recommend that you reconsider a one -size -fits -all ordinance for all seven corridors, as proposed to be enacted in 2026. We wish to recognize the efforts of the Eugene Planning staff, the RRCO and SCCO boards, the Community Advisory Committee, and all of the members of our joint communities who have engaged with us over these past seven years to reach this milestone. It is our hope that we will continue to collaborate over the coming years as we work to implement the Action Plan and resolve our parking, commercial, and corridor issues. We request that the public record remain open for 7 days after the hearing for additional public testimony.
