are provided with respect to fire code requirements that will be further addressed in the subsequent permit reviews. These comments are provided following the recommended conditions of approval. Based on these findings, the proposal is consistent with this criterion. EC 9.8320(7) Adequate public facilities and services are available to the site, or if public services and facilities are not presently available, the applicant demonstrates that the services and facilities will be available prior to need. Demonstration of future availability requires evidence of at least one of the following: a) Prior written commitment of public funds by the appropriate public agencies. b) Prior acceptance by the appropriate public agency of a written commitment by the applicant or other party to provide private services and facilities. c) A written commitment by the applicant or other party to provide for offsetting all added public costs or early commitment of public funds made necessary by development, submitted on a form acceptable to the city manager. Public Works staff concurs with the applicant's statement that required utility services are available for extension to the development site and that other public facilities (i.e. emergency response, police, public transit, schools, parks etc.) are available to the development site. The applicant is proposing to construct all of the public improvements within the development site excluding the right-of-way from Melville Avenue to the west. It is unclear if the applicant is proposing to construct the LTD transit station, the signal at Crescent and Shadow View Drive, and the improvements on Crescent Avenue at Coburg Road. If the applicant intends to provide the transit station in the manner proposed in the applicant's tentative PUD plans, the applicant will need to provide sufficient assurance that the station will be constructed. As part of the applicant's off-site traffic mitigation measures (identified in the applicant's TIA and reiterated above), the applicant is responsible for installing the traffic signal at the applicant's proposed location. EC 9.8320(8) Residents of the PUD will have sufficient usable recreation area and open space that is convenient and safely accessible. As shown on the tentative site plans, the proposed PUD incorporates usable recreation area and open space within the development site, and provides sidewalks and paths suitable for convenient access to nearby recreation areas and open spaces. The proposed development includes several private park areas, as well as open spaces adjacent to many of the residential buildings. In addition to the recreation area and open space within the development, the subject property is adjacent to an 8-acre site owned by the City of Eugene that is identified as a future park site. This property, located to the northeast of the proposed PUD is east of a 32-acre vacant site owned by the Eugene 44 School District. Staff notes that there are no approved plans for development of these site, however the City Parks and Open Space Division and the School District have discussed a potential partnership to create a sports park on the combined properties. Staff concludes that there is sufficient usable recreation area and open space for residents. EC 9.8320(9) Stormwater runoff from the PUD will not create significant negative impacts on natural drainage courses either on-site or downstream, including, but not limited to, erosion, scouring, turbidity, or transport of sediment due to increased peak flows or velocity. According to the applicant, stormwater runoff will be discharged into the existing public stormwater facilities along the east site boundary and Crescent Avenue.
