the wetlands closely overlay the banks of the creek. The Conservation Area for the creek is 40 <br />feet on either side, whereas the wetland setback is 25 feet. At this impacted location (i.e. the <br />extent of Standards Review), the 40-foot setback is greater than the extent of the 25-foot <br />setback and therefore, it receives the same level of protection. The mapped 25-foot buffer <br />around the remaining wetland is not something that can be required under the approval <br />criteria for these applications. However, staff understands that it would be helpful for the <br />future development of the individual lots to know where the 25-foot buffer is located, as <br />opposed to remapping it for every permit. Therefore, staff recommends that the applicant <br />include this buffer on their final site plan, though we lack the direct approval criteria to <br />mandate the inclusion of the buffer on their site plan. <br />• How will snow removal be coordinated. What happens if the designated responsible <br />lot does not sell. What enforcement mechanism exists if maintenance lapses? <br />Snow removal on the private streets and driveways would be the responsibility of individual lot <br />owners. Once the final plat is approved and recorded with Lane County and the State of <br />Oregon, the lots would then become legal lots owned initially by the developer and could be <br />sold either individually or in whole to another developer. Enforcement of maintenance <br />responsibilities for private accessways and streets would be through civil actions between <br />private parties and not the responsibility of the City. <br />• Condition of Approval 11, EWEB documentation has not been provided. <br />This condition of approval is required to be met during the Final Subdivision process and <br />approval of the final plat and not required at this stage of approval. <br />• The Removal/Fill wetland removal in Lot 38 should be disallowed per EC 9.6715. <br />This code section restricts heights in the Skinner Butte area and is not applicable to this site. <br />• EC 9.8055 requires that access points for proposed lots must be shown on site maps <br />and development maps, and many of the lots on these maps do not show how access <br />points will be sited after setbacks and conservation areas have been created. <br />This code section is the General/Discretionary approval criteria for Cluster Subdivisions and is <br />not applicable to this site. <br />The Planning Division also provided information concerning the application to other <br />appropriate City departments, and neighborhood services. Any referrals received may be <br />discussed and summarized in the evaluation below and are incorporated herein by reference. A <br />copy of any referrals and public comments are included in the application file for reference. <br />March 2026 Findings & Decision of the Planning Director Page 7 of 28 <br />Braewood Hills Third Addition (SDR 25-02 & PDF 25-01) <br />
