No streets are proposed. Transit exists on East 11th Avenue to the south and Franklin Blvd to the north. Transit does not travel on Alder Street. (2) Except for applications proposing housing to be reviewed with clear and objective approval criteria, where the provision of transit stops, bus pullouts or other facilities along a public street requires a right-of-way or paving width greater than that listed in Table 9.6870 Right-of-Way and Paving Widths and where a need for transit service within the development has been identified, the planning director or public works director, depending upon the type of application being processed, may require that additional right-of-way or paving be provided. No streets are proposed. Transit exists on East 11th Avenue to the south and Franklin Blvd to the north. Transit does not travel on Alder Street. EC 9.6870 Street Width Unless an alternative width is approved through use of other procedures in this code, the right-of-way width and paving width of streets and alleys dedicated shall conform to those designated on the adopted Street Right-of-Way map. When a street segment right-of-way width is not designated on the Street Right-of-Way map, the required street width shall be the minimum shown for its type in Table 9.6870 Right-of-Way and Paving Widths. Based on adopted plans and policies, adopted "Design Standards and Guidelines for Eugene Streets, Sidewalks, Bikeways, and Accessways,' or other factors which, in the judgment of the planning and public works director necessitate a greater street width . . . . Alder Street is not designated on the Street Right-of-Way map and is considered a major collector street. Table 9.6870 indicates a major collector street has a right of way width of 60’ – 75’’ and a paving width of 32’ – 44’. The current right-of-way width is variable ranging from 52’ – 63’ adjacent to the development site. The current paving width is also variable ranging from 28’ – 29.5’. The street meets the right-of-way width in some instances and does not meet the paving width standards set forth in Table 9.6870. Alder Alley is considered a primary access alley and is two way. Table 9.6870 indicates a primary access alley has a right of way width of 20’ and a paving width of 20’. The existing right of way width is 30’ and the paving width is 30’. The alley exceeds right of way and paving standards set forth in Table 9.6870. EC 9.6873 Slope Easements Not applicable. No streets are proposed and the site is relatively flat. EC 9.6875 Private Street Design Standards Not applicable. No streets are proposed. (b) Pedestrian, bicycle and transit circulation, including related facilities, as needed among buildings and related uses on the development site, as well as to adjacent and nearby residential areas, transit stops, neighborhood activity centers, office parks, and industrial parks, provided the city makes findings to demonstrate consistency with constitutional requirements. “Nearby” means uses within 1/4 mile that can reasonably be expected to be used by pedestrians, and uses within 2 miles that can reasonably be expected to be used by bicyclists. Given the scale and configuration of the proposed development—a single building occupying the majority of the site—opportunities for internal pedestrian, bicycle, or transit circulation
