This <br /> method would involve the implementation of development standards which would require <br /> the integration of natural resource values and functions with those of the development. <br /> The natural resource area would be designated as such and set aside for the benefit of all <br /> members of the development. Under this situation, maintenance and operation of the <br /> natural area would be the responsibility of a homeowners association. <br /> Note: While leaving a parcel in private ownership under options c, and d. will save the City the <br /> costs associated with management and maintenance of the site, such options will not <br /> guarantee that the resource values of the site will remain protected. Stewardship of such <br /> areas would be up to association members and local property owners who may not share <br /> the preservation goals of the City and choose not to enforce violations. In order to have <br /> some assurance that private stewardship will work, the City would need to gain additional <br /> authority to enforce encroachments or misuse of such common areas. An example would <br /> be City -wide implementation of ordinances such as the Natural Resource Implementation <br /> Draft Code Amendments proposed for the West Eugene Wetlands. <br /> • <br /> 10 <br />
