<br /> <br />Crow Road Subdivision – City of Eugene <br />Type II Tentative Subdivision <br />June 2026 <br />Page 10 <br /> <br />Response: As stated previously, the planned subdivision does not qualify for either density increase <br />noted in subparagraphs 3 and 4. Therefore, this standard does not apply. <br />(c) For purposes of this section, "net density" is the number of dwelling <br />units per acre of land in actual residential use and reserved for the <br />exclusive use of the residents in the development, such as common <br />open space or recreation facilities. <br />(d) For purposes of calculating net density: <br />1. The acreage of land considered part of the residential use <br />shall exclude public and private streets and alleys, public <br />parks, and other public facilities. <br />2. In calculating the minimum net density required for a <br />specific lot or development site, the planning director shall <br />round down to the previous whole number. <br />3. In calculating the maximum net density allowed for a <br />specific lot or development site the planning director shall <br />round up to the next whole number only for: <br />a. A lot or development site that is 13,500 square feet <br />or more in area; <br />b. A lot or development site that is not abutting the <br />boundary of, or directly across an alley from land <br />zoned R-1; and <br />c. Fractions of .75 or above. <br />In all other circumstances, the planning director <br />shall round down to the previous whole number. <br />4. At the request of the developer, the acreage described in 1., <br />above, also may exclude natural or historic resources. For <br />purposes of this section, natural resources include those <br />designated for protection in an adopted plan and the area <br />within natural resources protection or conservation setbacks <br />that have been applied to the development site. For purposes <br />of this section, historic resources include historic property <br />and resources identified in an official local inventory as <br />“primary” or “secondary.” It may also include additional <br />natural or historic resources upon approval of the planning <br />director. <br />Response: Density Calculations for this project that are prepared in accordance with the above <br />standards are included in Exhibit K. As detailed, the project meets the applicable <br />minimum and maximum density requirements. <br />(e) Legally established buildings and uses conforming to the residential <br />net density requirements in the R-2, R-3 and R-4 zones on December <br />7, 1994 are exempt from EC 9.1210 to 9.1230 Legal Nonconforming <br />Situations, pertaining to nonconforming uses. This exemption is <br />limited to development sites in the R-2, R-3, and R-4 zones on which <br />residential buildings and uses existed, or in which a development <br />permit or land use application was pending, on December 7, 1994. If <br />such a building which is nonconforming as to minimum density is <br />destroyed by fire or other causes beyond the control of the owner, the <br />development site may be redeveloped with the previous number of <br />dwelling unit(s) if completely rebuilt within 5 years. If not completely
