Ms. Jan Childs <br /> September 20, 2001 <br /> Page 3 of 2 <br /> Parks Comment 2: <br /> The area of the proposed PUD is poorly served by neighborhood park facilities. The Eugene <br /> Parks and Recreation Plan, adopted in 1989, established a goal of providing neighborhood <br /> parks within 2 mile walking distance of all residences. <br /> Response: <br /> There are two, perhaps three parks within %2 mile of the proposed PUD. Hawkins View Park is <br /> well within 1/2 mile of the PUD. Melvin Miller Park and Hawkins Heights Park are <br /> approximately %2 mile away. <br /> The applicant hopes this letter and the enclosed memo make a useful contribution to city <br /> and county parks planning. We also hope it will insulate this particular land use proposal from <br /> staff demands to exact park land to link to a Ridgeline Trail park that has no legal status. Thank <br /> you for your consideration. <br /> Sin fely, <br /> Bill • • . <br /> cc: Client <br /> Kent Howe, Lane County Planning Director <br /> Andrea Riner, Eugene Parks Department <br /> Scott Goebel <br /> Brian McCarthy <br /> Cuddc <br />
