Henry, PE, 682-8472 <br /> <br /> ~ Transportation Planning Engineer <br /> i <br /> Subject: Notice for Administrative Order 58-06-01 <br /> <br /> i <br /> <br /> 1 <br /> Attached is the notice for Administrative Order 58-06-01 for proposed adoption of an <br /> amendment to the Criteria for Exceptions in the Design Standards and Guidelines for Eugene <br /> Streets, Sidewalks, Bikeways, and Access Ways. <br /> The Design Standards and Guidelines for Eugene Streets, Sidewalks, Bikeways, and Access <br /> Ways were adopted in 1999 as Appendix H of the Eugene Arterial and Collector Street Plan <br /> (ACSP) by resolution No. 4608. <br /> Since then, project proposals have come before the City Council that have met those standards <br /> and have been rejected. Staff was directed to work with affected property owners and interested <br /> parties to develop design alternatives. In some cases, those design alternatives may not meet the <br /> adopted standards or satisfy the exception criteria. Administrative Order 58-06-01 would allow a <br /> project design to move forward if it meets the new exception criteria: <br /> "7) For acity-initiated project, the Council decides not to approve a proposed project <br /> ~ design that meets the standards of this chapter, but, after a design process that includes <br /> input from affected property owners and interested persons, the Council approves a <br /> design that the City Engineer determines is safe and functional." <br /> If you have any questions regarding the Administrative Order, please don't hesitate to contact me <br /> by email at chris.c.henrvna.ci.eugene.or.us or by phone at 682-8472. <br /> ! <br /> Page 1 of 2 <br /> <br />
