METHODOLOGY: <br />.City of Eugene Systems Development Charges <br />.....Appendix F <br />Parks System Charge-Detail <br />1.0 Formula <br />The Parks System Development Charge (SDC) is determined based on the level of service and the <br />cost for each component listed in Table 7. These components are identified in the 1989 Parks and <br />Recreation Plan. Included are neighborhood and community parks, and special facility areas, which <br />encompass facilities such as tennis and basketball courts, softball diamonds and soccer fields. A <br />Parks SDC is collected from residential development only. The basis of the charge is equivalent <br />dwelling units (EDUs). <br />Table 7 contains the current Eugene planning area- standards for neighborhood "and community <br />parks. Standards for special facility areas, also shown in Table 7, were developed by dividing the <br />current planning area facility count by the current population to arrive at the can-ent level of service <br />per thousand population. <br />This standard was then multiplied by the per-acre cost for land acquisition/development orthe per- <br />unit cost of each component to get the cost per 1,000 population. Then the per capita amounts were <br />derived by dividing by 1,000. The per capita component costs were then summed to arrive at a cost <br />impact per capita. <br />To calculate the cost per equivalent dwelling unit {EDU), the Total Charge per Person is multiplied <br />by the average number'of persons per household, forthe city: The population records serve as the <br />basis #or deriving the average number of persons -per dwelling unit, used in the Parks SDC analysis. <br />May 1, 1997 City of Eugene SDC Methodology Page F-1 <br />
