Primarily a factor in the Transportation SDC where development is charged <br /> according to the different trip rates assigned to development types, and in the Metropolitan <br /> Wastewater anagement Commission SDC, where development is charged according to the <br /> different, rates per FEU assigned to development types. <br /> EDU: ~ Equival nt Dwelling Unit. EDU is used in the wastewater SDC as a basis for determining the <br /> relative impact or service used by different types of development. Represents the use of capacity <br /> that is approxi ately equal to that of a single dwelling unit. For the purposes of setting the City of <br /> Eugene Waste ter SDC, an equivalent dwelling unit is equal to 16 plumbing fixture units as defined <br /> in',the State U iform Plumbing code. , <br /> Equitable Sh re of Public Facility Costs: As used in the development of SDCs, the City's cost <br /> of lproviding sy tem capacity, allocated to new development relative to the development's impact or <br /> us'e of system capacity. <br /> FEU: Flow Est mation Unit. For the Metropolitan Wastewater Management Commission SDC, the <br /> Flaw Estimatio Unit is the unit of impact upon which the rate per unit is based. The FEU is typically <br /> 1,Q00 square eet of building area for most commercial users, and dwelling units for residential <br /> development. <br /> Impact Measu ment: The unit of system capacity used to determine the relative effect of a new <br /> development o the capacity of a specific system. For example, plumbing fixture units are used to <br /> determine the ffect of development on the wastewater system. <br /> Impervious S dace: impervious surface is used as an impact measure for the stormwater SDC. <br /> An impervious surface is that which prevents or retards saturation of water into the surface of the <br /> soil or causes ter to run off the surface in greater quantity or an increased rate of flow compared <br /> to the natural ndition of the property before development. Asphalt, concrete, and roofing materials <br /> ark examples f impervious materials. <br /> Improvement ee: The portion of the system-specific SDC charged to cover an equitable share <br /> of ,the capita! mprovements required to increase capacity of the system to accommodate new <br /> development. <br /> Level of Serv ce (LOS): (per unit of development) As used in development of SDC rates, LOS <br /> represents the mount of system (orsub-system) capacity provided at a certain point in time. The <br /> content level of ervice is used as the basis for determining the system impacts of new development. <br /> Thf s is present din terms of the appropriate impact measure. <br /> Methodology: is document entitled "METHODOLOGIES: City of Eugene, Systems Development <br /> Charges" and ny amendment or modification made hereto. <br /> <br /> ( II~, MWMC: Metro olitan Wastewater Management Commission -responsible for regional wastewater <br /> ~rr?II; treatment. <br /> July 7, 1997 City of Eugene SDC Methodology Page B-2 <br /> <br />
