Existina Conditions and Site Access <br />Tax Lot 4700 is relatively flat and is currently occupied by the former hospital buildings and associated <br />site infrastructure, which are proposed for removal in a separate Demolition Permit.

In addition to transit <br />services, the City of Eugene has constructed major bicycle facilities along Alder Street and West 13th <br />Avenue to improve safety for riders. West 121h Avenue is identified as a neighborhood greenway in the <br />Transportation System Plan. <br />III. Relevant Land Use History <br />The site is currently designated Commercial and zoned C-2 Community Commercial with the /TD Overlay <br />zone, which is consistent with the designation. The majority of the site was included in the Shaw's <br />Second Addition, a plat that dates to the 1890s. Other portions of the site were previously public street <br />rights -of -way. The rights -of -way were vacated through several City ordinances in the 1960s and one in <br />2002. The prior use of the site was for a hospital. A hospital is a conditional use in the C-2 zone. <br />Therefore, According to available online City files, there are several approved CUPs relevant to portions <br />of the prior hospital site dating back to 1971. The separate proposed demolition of the former hospital <br />buildings and change of use to multi -unit residential dwellings renders the prior CUP moot. <br />COMMUNITY FLANNI06 80411F . LLC <br />
