RE: ZON2007-00036,Pian Review, UO Book Store,E 19th Ave
Linda -
I like that the County is providing this information a\ the DIM stage...it'll heip the applicant be better prepared.
Anyway, I also noticed th'at there were also'some drainage references in here..,so you may want to forward on to
whomever is the PW Engineering staff person on this.
And finally...1 do think there is something we need to resolve with the County on part of this process. Normally, as a
condition of approval, we require that we have an approved Lane County permit for the driveway access. However,
according to what I am reading, Lane County themselves are requiring as a condition of approval that the applicant provide
them a copy of our approved plans and approved conditions of approval. This seems like a circular requirement.
. . .
Anyway, we can discuss...I'1I place this in our files and also cc Gary M. on this as well.
Thanks Linda,
Greg K.' .

the property.
Pursuant to LC15.070 (1), a lot or parcel of land adjoining a road designated as a County
Road shall have a building setback line which conforms to tt:le applicable zoning district. .
Setbacks shall be measured at right angles to the centerline of a straight-line or as radials on
a curved road to the nearest point of the front wall of the building. Pursuant to LC 15.070 (1)
(c)(i) (bb), the minimum right-of-way width for development setback purposes based on
functional class of the road shall be 60 feet.

The driveway relocation proposal does not meet the spacing standards of 100 feet. Within thE
Urban Growth boundary, the driveway spacing' standard for county roads classified as Local
roads shall be 100 feet for this type of development, pursuant to LC 15.138 (2).
The rail road crossing is at grade with E 19th Ave. Lane county may receive requests from the
Rail Road company to improve this. intersection. Usually the improvement requests involve
grade correction at the cro.wn of the intersection: The developer should be made aware of the
possibility that such improvement projects may extend up to 200 feet of the crossing. The
county cannot guarantee that the eastern-most driveway uses are not affected.
No facility permits for the existing driveways exist on record. Pursuant to LC 15.205 (3), a
facility permit is required for any work within a County Road right-of-way including road
improvements, sidewalks, new or reconstructed driveway or road approach intersections,
storm facilities, utility placements, excavation, clearing, grading, culvert placement, or any
other facility, thing, or appurtenances.
