The subject property is located at the intersection of Twin Creeks Crossing and Boulder Ridge Street and is identified on the Jackson County Assessor’s map as 37S 2W 03CA, Tax Lot 1500. Applicant: Smith Crossing, LLC; Agent: Scott Sinner Consulting, Inc. Associated Files: ZC-23002, MP-23001, SPAR-23001 Staff Source Justin Gindlesperger, Community Planner II Background Smith Crossing, LLC (“Applicant”) has requested a Minor Comprehensive Plan Map Amendment from Employment Commercial to High Density Residential in the Twin Creeks TOD District. It is the Applicant’s intent to develop the property with a mixed-use development that includes 45 multifamily residential units including limited ground floor commercial uses along the Twin Creeks Crossing frontage and multifamily residential interior to the site. The proposed use is not consistent with the current zoning, which only permits residential units above ground floor commercial. The proposed Comprehensive Plan Map Amendment could permit mixed-use opportunities on the site, including vertical (mixed use in the same building) and horizontal (mixed use in adjacent buildings). Discussion: The City of Central Point uses a two (2) map system with the Comprehensive Plan Map and the Land Use Map. The Comprehensive Plan Map provides a broad view of development within the City; whereas, the Land Use Map, commonly referred to as the Zoning Map, represents the spatial distribution of all land uses and provides parcel specific information for development. Since the Comprehensive Plan Map and the Zoning Map to maintain consistency at all times, the application for comprehensive map amendment is accompanied by, and being processed concurrently with, an application for a Zone Map Amendment (see File No. ZC-23002) that proposes to change the zoning map to High Mix Residential (HMR) that is consistent with the proposed comprehensive plan map change to high density residential. Comprehensive Plan Compliance The current Employment Commercial designation permits a broad range of commercial uses along with multifamily uses only when located above the ground floor commercial as part of vertical mixed uses. The proposed amendment maintains mixed-use opportunities on this site, including vertical (mixed use in the same building) and horizontal (mixed use in separate buildings on a site). Development of the site must maintain consistency with the Twin Creeks Master Plan for this area, and leasable commercial space in the mixed-use development will continue to provide opportunities for small businesses, retail and professional office uses. Neighborhood Compatibility 6.A Packet Pg. 5 The subject property is currently undeveloped and adjacent to developed properties on the south and west within the High Density Residential/HMR and Medium Density/ Medium Mix Residential (MMR) zones. The proposed Comprehensive Plan Map Amendment extends the High Density Residential/HMR designation and will continue to provide mixed use opportunities along Twin Creeks Crossing, in accordance with the Twin Creeks Master Plan. Traffic Impacts Transportation facilities in the area of the subject property were considered during the approval of the Twin Creeks Master Plan, which included analysis of transportation needs, traffic circulation and transit services. A Trip Generation Analysis, prepared by Southern Oregon Transportation Engineering dated April 17, 2023, evaluated the proposed zone change from EC to HMR and concluded the proposed map amendment will not generate additional impacts on transportation facilities. Issues None. Findings of Fact & Conclusions of Law The Central Point Station, Phase 2, Comprehensive Plan Map Amendment has been evaluated against the applicable criteria set forth in CPMC 17.96 and found to comply as evidenced in the Applicant’s Restated Findings of Fact (Attachments “C”), the Planning Department Supplemental Findings (Attachment “D”) and the Staff Report dated June 6, 2023. Conditions of Approval None. Attachments Attachment “A” - Project Location Map Attachment “B” - Master Site Plan Attachment “C” - Applicant’s Restated Findings and Exhibits, dated 05/25/2023 Attachment “D” - Planning Department Supplemental Findings Attachment “E” - Trip Generation Assessment, dated 04/17/2023 Attachment “F” - Resolution No. 905 Action Conduct the public hearing and consider the Comprehensive Plan Map Amendment application. The Planning Commission may 1) approve; 2) approve with revisions; or 3) deny the application. If the Planning Commission finds there is insufficient evidence to take one of these actions at the June meeting, the Planning Commission may continue the public hearing to a date and time specific as necessary to allow the applicant to respond to any issues or questions and update their findings. Recommendation Approve the Comprehensive Plan Map Amendment application, the Applicant’s Findings, as corrected, in Attachment “C” and the Planning Department Supplemental Findings in Attachment “D.” ATTACHMENTS: 1.

Applicant: ) Findings of Fact Smith Crossing LLC ) and 353 Dalton Street ) Conclusion of Law Medford OR 97501 ) PART 1 INTRODUCTION The proposed comprehensive plan map amendment requests to classify the above property, located within the City of Central Point, from Employment Commercial to High Density Residential on the General Land Use Plan (GLUP) Map. In accordance with CPMC 17.96.300 and 17.05.100, the proposed Minor Comprehensive Plan map Amendment is a quasi-judicial map amendment, which is processed using Type III application procedures set forth in Section 17.05.400. Approval criteria for this Application include CPMC 17.96, which includes compliance with the statewide planning goals, comprehensive plan and Transportation Planning Rule. The amendment’s compliance with applicable criteria are presented in Part 2 and summarized in Part 3. PROJECT BACKGROUND The applicant proposes a 45-unit multifamily development with limited ground floor commercial uses along the Twin Creeks Crossing frontage. The 1.62 acre project site is zoned Employment Commercial (EC) and is identified in the Twin Creeks Master Plan as a site to provide 1-2 stories of retail, professional office uses. The proposed use is not consistent with the current zoning district, which only allows residential units above ground floor commercial. The current application proposes to modify the Comprehensive Plan Map from Employment Commercial (EC) to High Density Residential/HMR, which could permit mixed use opportunities on the site, including vertical (mixed use in same building) and horizontal (mixed use in adjacent buildings). The City of Central Point uses a two (2) map system with the Comprehensive Plan Map and the Land Use Map. The Comprehensive Plan Map provides a broad view of development within the City; whereas, the Land Use Map, commonly referred to as the Zoning Map, represents the spatial distribution of all land uses and provides parcel specific information for development. The Land Use Element of the City’s Comprehensive Plan requires the Comprehensive Plan Map and the Zoning Map to maintain consistency at all times. Therefore, the application for comprehensive map amendment is accompanied by, and being processed concurrently with, an application for a Zone Map Amendment (see File No. ZC-23002) that proposes to change the zoning map to High Mix Residential that is consistent with the proposed comprehensive plan map change to high density residential. 6.A.a Packet Pg. 34 At t a c h m e n t : C P A - 2 3 0 0 2 _ A t t a c h m e n t s ( 1 6 9 0 : C e n t r a l P o i n t S t a t i o n , P h a s e 2 - C o m p P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) Planning Department Findings Page 2 of 20 PART 2 - ZONING CODE COMPLIANCE 17.96.200 Initiation of amendments. A proposed amendment to the comprehensive plan or urban growth boundary may be initiated by either: A. A resolution by the planning commission to the city council; B. A resolution of intent by the city council; or for zoning map amendments; C. An application by one or more property owners, or their agents, of property affected by the proposed amendment. Finding CPMC 17.96.200: The Planning Division received an application by the listed applicant and designated agent for the zone change request. The application was accepted as complete on April 18, 2023, indicating the application complied with the required submittals of this Chapter. Conclusion 17.96.200: Consistent. 17.96.300 Major and minor amendments. Proposed amendments to the comprehensive plan, including urban growth boundary amendments, are categorized as either major or minor amendments as defined in Section 17.10.300. Proposals for major revisions shall be processed as a Type IV procedure per Section 17.05.500. Proposals for minor changes shall be processed as a Type III procedure per Section 17.05.400. Finding CPMC 17.96.300: The proposed amendment is the application of adopted policy to a particular property and is not the adoption of new policy. The requested change is a Minor Amendment, as defined in Section 17.10.300, and has been processed in accordance with Type III procedures in CPMC 17.05.400. Conclusion CPMC 17.96.300: Consistent. 17.96.400 Submittal and timing of proposals. Applications for an amendment to the comprehensive plan, or urban growth boundary, may be submitted at any time. Once accepted proposals shall be scheduled by the city council by resolution of intent. The applications and review thereof shall conform to the provisions of Chapter 17.05 and all applicable laws of the state. Finding CPMC 17.96.400: The application was accepted as complete on April 18, 2023. As evidenced by the land use notifications, including notice to DLCD on May 2, 2023, notice to surrounding property owners and advertisement on the City’s website (www.centralpointoregon.gov/projects), the City has duly noticed and processed the application in accordance with Chapter 17.05. Conclusion CPMC 17.96.400: Consistent. CPMC 17.96.500 Approval criteria. A recommendation or a decision to approve or to deny an application for an amendment to the comprehensive plan or urban growth boundary shall be based on written findings and conclusions that address the following criteria: 6.A.a Packet Pg. 35 At t a c h m e n t : C P A - 2 3 0 0 2 _ A t t a c h m e n t s ( 1 6 9 0 : C e n t r a l P o i n t S t a t i o n , P h a s e 2 - C o m p P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) Planning Department Findings Page 3 of 20 A. Approval of the request is consistent with the applicable statewide planning goals (major amendments only); Finding CPMC 17.10.400 (A): The proposed amendments have been reviewed against the Statewide Planning Goals and found to comply as follows: Goal 1- Citizen Involvement. This goal requires that all citizens be given the opportunity to be involved in all phases of the planning process. As evidenced by the land use notifications, including notice to DLCD on May 2, 2023, notice to surrounding property owners and advertisement on the City’s website (www.centralpointoregon.gov/projects), the City has duly noticed the application as necessary to allow the opportunity for citizen participation in the public hearings scheduled with the Planning Commission (6-6-2023) and City Council (6-22- 2023) for the proposed map changes consistent with Goal 1. Goal 2 – Land Use Planning. Goal 2 addresses the land use planning procedures in Oregon, including the need to adopt comprehensive plans and implementing ordinances based on factual information. The proposed change is based on factual information from the municipal code and existing policy in the comprehensive plan. Goal 3 – Agricultural Lands. Goal 3 addresses agricultural land within rural areas. The proposed map amendment does not affect agricultural lands or agricultural buffers that would be required adjacent to agricultural lands outside the urban growth boundary. On this basis, Goal 3 does not apply to the proposed amendment. Goal 4 – Forest Lands. Goal 4 addresses forest lands within rural areas. The proposed amendment does not affect forest lands or lands adjacent to forest lands; therefore, Goal 4 does not apply. Goal 5 – Open Spaces, Scenic and Historic Areas, and Natural Resources. Goal 5 establishes a process for each natural and cultural resource to be inventoried and evaluated. If deemed to be significant, local governments may preserve, allow uses that conflict with the resource, or allow a combination of the two. In Central Point, floodplains and historic structures have been inventoried, and ordinances have been adopted to minimize impacts to each. The subject property of the proposed map amendment is within the Special Flood Hazard Area of Griffin Creek. Proposed development on the property will be subject to applicable policies, actions and standards in the Central Point Municipal Code to minimize flood losses and protect the property and surrounding properties from the dangers of flooding. Goal 6 – Air, Water and Land Resources Quality. Goal 6 requires local comprehensive plans and implementing ordinances to comply with state and federal regulations on air, water and land quality resource requirements. The proposed amendment is not expected to have impacts on compliance with these standards and requirements. Goal 7 – Areas Subject to Natural Hazards. Goal 7 requires appropriate safeguards when planning for development in floodplains or other areas subject to natural hazards. The subject property of the proposed map amendment is within the Special Flood Hazard Area of Griffin Creek. Proposed development on the property will be subject to applicable policies, actions and standards in the Central Point Municipal Code to minimize flood losses and protect the property and surrounding properties from the dangers of flooding. 6.A.a Packet Pg. 36 At t a c h m e n t : C P A - 2 3 0 0 2 _ A t t a c h m e n t s ( 1 6 9 0 : C e n t r a l P o i n t S t a t i o n , P h a s e 2 - C o m p P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) Planning Department Findings Page 4 of 20 Goal 8 – Recreational Needs. This goal requires communities to inventory existing parks and recreational facilities, and to project the needed facilities to serve all populations within the community. The development of the subject property is addressed in the Twin Creeks Master Plan, which includes an interconnected network of active and passive parks and recreation areas. As such, the needs for parks and recreational facilities are addressed throughout the master plan area. Since the proposed amendment maintains the mix of allowed residential and commercial uses while providing flexibility for horizontal configuration, future permitted uses are generally the same and therefore not expected to generate additional need for parks and recreation services. Goal 9 – Economy of the State. Goal 9 addresses diversification and improvement of the economy and specifically addresses commercial and industrial land. The proposed changes affect the comprehensive plan map designation and zoning designation of the subject property. The EC zone currently permits a broad range of commercial uses along with multifamily uses only when located above the ground floor commercial as part of vertical mixed uses. The proposed modification would allow mixed use opportunities on this site, including vertical (mixed use in the same building) and horizontal (mixed use in separate buildings on a site). Provided commercial uses in the horizontal mixed use are consistent with Exhibit 37 (Civic and Commercial Plan) of the Twin Creeks Master Plan, the proposed amendments are consistent with Goal 9. Since Master Plan compliance is required for Site Plan and Architectural Review, approval, it can be concluded that the proposed Comprehensive Plan Map Amendment is consistent with Goal 9. Goal 10 – Housing. Goal 10 requires local communities to plan for and accommodate housing needs in the City. The proposed map amendments would allow mixed use opportunities on this site, including vertical (mixed use in the same building) and horizontal (mixed use in separate buildings on a site) and continuing to provide multifamily uses on the subject property. As such, the proposed amendments continue to allow housing, which is consistent with the City’s need to produce additional housing and with Goal 10. Goal 11 – Public Facilities and Services. Goal 11 calls for efficient planning of public services such as sewer, water, law enforcement and fire protection to assure that public services are planned in accordance with a community’s needs and capacities rather than to be forced to respond to development as it occurs. Public facilities and services are planned in accordance with the Comprehensive Plan Public Facilities Element and updated master plans for water, stormwater, etc. These facilities and services have been established to accommodate full build- out of the Twin Creeks Master Plan area for the benefit of the project site and other properties therein. The proposed amendment will not affect the provision of services or generate additional need for services since the proposed zoning will continue to allow a mix of commercial and residential uses. Goal 12 – Transportation. Goal 12 aims to provide a safe, convenient and economic transportation system. The development of the subject property was considered during the approval of the Twin Creeks Master Plan, which includes analysis of transportation needs, traffic circulation and transit services. A Trip Generation Analysis, prepared by Southern Oregon Transportation Engineering dated April 17, 2023, concludes the proposed amendment is consistent with the original Traffic Impact Analysis for the Master Plan area and will not generate additional impacts on transportation facilities. 6.A.a Packet Pg. 37 At t a c h m e n t : C P A - 2 3 0 0 2 _ A t t a c h m e n t s ( 1 6 9 0 : C e n t r a l P o i n t S t a t i o n , P h a s e 2 - C o m p P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) Planning Department Findings Page 5 of 20 Goal 13 – Energy. Goal 13 has to do with conserving all forms of energy. The subject property is within the Twin Creeks Master Plan area and located along a high capacity transportation corridor. As such, the proposed amendment and subsequent development of the subject property are not expected to increase energy utilization. Goal 14 – Urbanization. Goal 14 has to do with managing the City’s growth in conjunction with project need based on population and land use. The proposed map amendment is within the area considered for development within the Twin Creeks Master Plan, which considered development of the subject property to urban development standards and previously considered within the City’s land needs. As such, the proposed amendment will not affect population growth or land need. Goals 15- Applies to the Willamette Valley and does not apply to the City of Central Point. Goals 16-19 - Applies to coastal areas and does not affect the City of Central Point. Conclusion CPMC 17.96.500(A): Based on the nature of the proposed amendment and the findings above, the proposed change to Central Point Zone Map is consistent with all applicable Statewide Planning Goals. B. Approval of the request is consistent with the Central Point comprehensive plan (major and minor amendments); Finding CPMC 17.96.500 (B): A review of the Central Point Comprehensive Plan identified the following relevant policies: Urbanization Element: Policy 5: Promote efficient and economical patterns of mixed land uses and development densities that locate a variety of different life activities ,such as employment, housing, shopping and recreation in convenient proximity; and that are, or can be made, accessible by multiple modes of transportation —including walking, bicycling, and transit in addition to motor vehicles —within and between neighborhoods and districts. Finding Urbanization Policy 5: The proposed modification would allow mixed use opportunities on this site, including vertical (mixed use in the same building) and horizontal (mixed use in separate buildings on a site). The site is within the area developed under the Twin Creek Master Plan that includes multiple modes of transportation within and between the neighborhoods. Conclusion Urbanization Policy 5: Consistent Economic Element: Goal 6: To maintain at all times an adequate supply of suitable short-term (five-year) employment lands. Finding Economic Goal 6: The proposed changes affect the comprehensive plan map designation and zoning designation of the subject property. The EC designation on the comprehensive plan map and zone map currently permits a broad range of commercial uses along with multifamily uses only when located above the ground floor commercial as part of 6.A.a Packet Pg. 38 At t a c h m e n t : C P A - 2 3 0 0 2 _ A t t a c h m e n t s ( 1 6 9 0 : C e n t r a l P o i n t S t a t i o n , P h a s e 2 - C o m p P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) Planning Department Findings Page 6 of 20 vertical mixed uses. The proposed modification allows mixed use opportunities on this site, including vertical (mixed use in the same building) and horizontal (mixed use in separate buildings on a site). Provided commercial uses in the horizontal mixed use are consistent with Exhibit 37 (Civic and Commercial Plan) of the Twin Creeks Master Plan, the proposed amendments are consistent with the economic element. Conclusion Economic Goal 6: Consistent. Policy 4: Small Businesses: The City shall pursue and encourage development of leasable employment buildings (i.e. flex space) to create opportunities to expand, retain and attract small businesses to Central Point’s employment districts. Finding Policy 4: Small Businesses: The proposed modification would allow mixed use opportunities on this site, including vertical (mixed use in the same building) and horizontal (mixed use in separate buildings on a site). Provided commercial uses in the horizontal mixed use are consistent with Exhibit 37 (Civic and Commercial Plan) of the Twin Creeks Master Plan, the leasable commercial space fronting Twin Creeks Crossing will continue to provide opportunities for small businesses. Conclusion Policy 4: Small Businesses: Consistent. Policy 8: Adequate Short-Term Supply. The City shall assure that, through its Capital Improvement Program, public facilities and transportation facilities are available and adequate in capacity to maintain a supply of competitive short-term buildable lands sufficient to meet employment needs within a five-year period, particularly for the retail, specialty foods, professional, health care, and trucking sectors. Finding Policy 8: Adequate Short-Term Supply: The competitive short-term supply of land means those lands are ready for development with serviceable facilities, or public facilities, utilities and transportation facilities, that have adequate capacity for planned development. The proposed amendment is within the planning area for the Twin Creeks Master Plan that provides adequate and serviceable facilities to the site. The proposed modification would allow mixed use opportunities on this site, including vertical (mixed use in the same building) and horizontal (mixed use in separate buildings on a site). Provided commercial uses in the horizontal mixed use are consistent with Exhibit 37 (Civic and Commercial Plan) of the Twin Creeks Master Plan, the leasable commercial space fronting Twin Creeks Crossing will continue to provide opportunities for retail and professional uses. Conclusion Policy 8: Adequate Short-Term Supply: Consistent. Policy 9: Prepare for Long-Term Needs: The City shall maintain a supply of competitive short- term employment lands in the medium and large site categories equivalent to the twenty-year demand for those categories. The supply of short-term employment land shall be reviewed and updated every four years consistent with the Portland State University Population Research Center Coordinated Population Forecasting schedule. When it is determined that the supply of land as measured in terms of number of sites and/or acreage in the medium and large site categories is inadequate to serve the twenty-year needs then the City shall amend its UGB to include additional short-term (5-year) employment lands. 6.A.a Packet Pg. 39 At t a c h m e n t : C P A - 2 3 0 0 2 _ A t t a c h m e n t s ( 1 6 9 0 : C e n t r a l P o i n t S t a t i o n , P h a s e 2 - C o m p P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) Planning Department Findings Page 7 of 20 Finding Policy 9: Prepare for Long-Term Needs: The Land Use Element defines the EC classification as lands “…designed to accommodate a wide variety of retail, service, and office uses in an environment that is pedestrian oriented…” Site requirements for uses in EC zones are typically smaller (0.5-5 acres) that accommodate smaller building sizes (200- 15,000 square feet). The project site is approximately 1.62 acres and is outside the demand projections for medium and large site needs assessments. Conclusion Policy 9: Prepare for Long-Term Needs: Not applicable. Land Use Element: Commercial Policy 1: Maintain the zoning of all commercial areas of Central point as necessary to comply with the Economic Element. Finding Commercial Policy 1: As demonstrated in the findings for Goal 6 of the Economic Element, the proposed modification allows mixed use opportunities on this site, including vertical (mixed use in the same building) and horizontal (mixed use in separate buildings on a site). Provided commercial uses in the horizontal mixed use are consistent with Exhibit 37 (Civic and Commercial Plan) of the Twin Creeks Master Plan, the proposed amendments are consistent with the economic element. Conclusion Commercial Policy 1: Consistent. Conclusion CPMC 17.96.500(B):Based on the evaluation of applicable Comprehensive Plan policies, the proposed comprehensive plan map amendment is consistent with the Central Point Comprehensive Plan C. For urban growth boundary amendments findings demonstrate that adequate public services and transportation networks to serve the property are either available, or identified for construction in the city’s public facilities master plans (major and minor amendments); and Finding CPMC 17.96.500 (C): The proposed amendment to the City’s comprehensive plan map does not include an amendment to the urban growth boundary. Conclusion CPMC 17.96.500(C): Not applicable. D. The amendment complies with OAR 660-012-0060 of the Transportation Planning Rule. OAR 660-012-0060 – Transportation Planning Rule The State Transportation Planning Rule (TPR) in OAR 660-012-0060 requires changes to land use plans and land use regulations (i.e. Comprehensive Plan Map Amendments and Zoning Map Amendments) to be consistent with the function and capacity of existing and planned transportation facilities. Oregon Administrative Rule (OAR) 660-012-0060 subsection (1) states the following: (1) If an amendment to a functional plan, an acknowledged comprehensive plan, or a land use regulation (including a zoning map) would significantly affect an existing or planned transportation facility, then the local government must put in place measures as provided in section (2) of this rule, unless the amendment is allowed under section (3), (9) or (10) of this rule. 6.A.a Packet Pg. 40 At t a c h m e n t : C P A - 2 3 0 0 2 _ A t t a c h m e n t s ( 1 6 9 0 : C e n t r a l P o i n t S t a t i o n , P h a s e 2 - C o m p P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) Planning Department Findings Page 8 of 20 A plan or land use regulation amendment significantly affects a transportation facility if it would: (a) Change the functional classification of an existing or planned transportation facility (exclusive of corrections of map errors in an adopted plan); (b) Change standards implementing a functional classification system; or (c) Result in any of the effects listed in paragraphs (A) through (C) of this subsection based on projected conditions measured at the end of the planning period identified in the adopted TSP. As part of evaluating projected conditions, the amount of traffic projected to be generated within the areas of the amendment may be reduced if the amendment includes an enforceable, ongoing requirement that would demonstrably limit traffic generation, including, but not limited to, transportation demand management. This reduction may diminish or completely eliminate the significant effect of the amendment. (A) Types or levels of travel or access that are inconsistent with the functional classification of an existing or planned transportation facility; (B) Degrade the performance of an existing or planned transportation facility such that it would not meet the performance standards identified in the TSP or comprehensive plan; or, (C) Degrade the performance of an existing or planned transportation facility that is otherwise projected to not meet the performance standards identified in the TSP or comprehensive plan. Finding OAR 660-012-0060(1): A Trip Generation Analysis was prepared for the proposed zone change by Southern Oregon Transportation Engineering, LLC on April 17, 2023. The Study evaluates the proposed zone change on the 1.62-acre project site (37S 2W 03CA Tax Lot 1500) from EC to HMR. Per the Trip Generation Analysis, the trip generation of the proposed amendment was evaluated based on 45 multi-family dwelling units and 2,514 square feet of commercial gross floor area. The analysis reported a total of 700 daily trips and 57 PM Peak trips, which is a decrease in total daily trips and PM Peak trips on the surrounding streets. Per the Trip Generation Analysis, the traffic generated by the proposed development will not alter the functional classification for any existing or planned infrastructure. Conclusion OAR 660-012-0060(1): Consistent. (2) If a local government determines that there would be a significant effect, then the local government must ensure that allowed land uses are consistent with the identified function, capacity, and performance standards of the facility measured at the end of the planning period identified in the adopted TSP through one or a combination of the remedies listed in (a) through (e) below, unless the amendment meets the balancing test in subsection (2)(e) of this section or qualifies for partial mitigation in section (11) of this rule.

(a) Adopting measures that demonstrate allowed land uses are consistent with the planned, function, capacity, and performance standards of the facility. (b) Amending the TSP or comprehensive plan to provide transportation facilities, improvements or services adequate to support the proposed land uses consistent with the requirements of this division; such amendments shall include a funding plan or mechanism consistent with section (4) or include an amendment to the transportation finance plan so that the facility, improvement, or service will be provided by the end of the planning period. (c) Amending the TSP to modify the planned function, capacity or performance standards of the transportation facility. (d) Providing other measures as a condition of development or through a development agreement or similar funding method, including but not limited to transportation system management measures or minor transportation improvements. Local governments shall, as part of the amendment, specify when measures or improvements provided pursuant to this subsection will be provided. (e) Providing improvements that would benefit modes other than the significantly affected mode, improvements to facilities other than the significantly affected facility, or improvements at other locations if: (A) The provider of the significantly affected facility provides a written statement that the system-wide benefits are sufficient to balance the significant effect, even though the improvements would not result in consistency for all standards; (B) The providers of facilities being improved at other locations provide written statements of approval; and, (C) The local jurisdictions where facilities are being improved provide written statements of approval. Finding OAR 660-012-0060(2): As demonstrated in the findings and conclusions for OAR 660-012-0060(1), the proposed amendment does not significantly affect transportation facilities. Conclusion OAR 660-012-0060(2): Not applicable. 6.A.a Packet Pg. 42 At t a c h m e n t : C P A - 2 3 0 0 2 _ A t t a c h m e n t s ( 1 6 9 0 : C e n t r a l P o i n t S t a t i o n , P h a s e 2 - C o m p P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) Planning Department Findings Page 10 of 20 (3) Notwithstanding sections(1) and (2) of this rule, a local government may approve an amendment that would significantly affect an existing transportation facility without assuring that the allowed land uses are consistent with the function, capacity, and performance standards of the facility where: (a) In the absence of the amendment, planned transportation facilities, improvements and services as set forth in section (4) of this rule would not be adequate to achieve consistency with the identified function, capacity or performance standard for that facility by the end of the planning period identified in the TSP. (b) Development resulting from the amendment will, at a minimum mitigate the impacts of the amendment in a manner that avoids further degradation to the performance of the facility by the time of the development through one or a combination of transportation improvements or measures; (c) The amendment does not involve property located in an interchange area as defined in paragraph (d)(C); and For affected state highways, ODOT provides a written statement that the proposed funding and timing for the identified mitigation improvements or measures are, ata minimum, sufficient to avoid further degradation to the performance of the affected state highway. However, if a local government provides the appropriate ODOT regional office with written notice of a proposed amendment in a manner that provides ODOT reasonable opportunity to submit a written statement into the record of the local government proceeding, and ODOT does not provide a written statement, then the local government may proceed with applying subsections (a) through (c) of this section. Finding OAR 660-012-0060(2): As demonstrated in the findings and conclusions for OAR 660-012-0060(1), the proposed amendment does not significantly affect transportation facilities. Conclusion OAR 660-012-0060(2): Not applicable. (4) Determinations under sections (1) through (3) of this rule shall be coordinated with affected transportation facility and service providers and other affected local governments. (a) In determining whether an amendment has a significant effect on an existing or planned transportation facility under subsection (1)(c) of this rule, local governments shall rely on existing transportation facilities and services and on the planned transportation facilities, improvements and services set forth in subsections (b) and (c) below. (b) Outside of interstate interchange areas, the following are considered planned facilities, improvements, and services: 6.A.a Packet Pg. 43 At t a c h m e n t : C P A - 2 3 0 0 2 _ A t t a c h m e n t s ( 1 6 9 0 : C e n t r a l P o i n t S t a t i o n , P h a s e 2 - C o m p P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) Planning Department Findings Page 11 of 20 (A) Transportation facilities, improvements or services that are funded for construction or implementation in the Statewide Transportation Improvement Program or a locally or regionally adopted transportation improvement program or capital improvement plan or program of a transportation service provider. (B) Transportation facilities, improvements or services that are authorized in a local transportation system plan and for which a funding plan or mechanism is in place or approved. These include, but are not limited to, transportation facilities, improvements or services for which: transportation systems development charge revenues are being collected; a local improvement district or reimbursement district has been established or will be established or will be established prior to development; a development agreement has been adopted; or conditions of approval to fund the improvement have been adopted. (C) Transportation facilities, improvements or services in a metropolitan planning organization (MPO) area that are part of the area’s federally-approved, financially constrained regional transportation system plan. (D) Improvements to state highways that are included as planned improvements in a regional or local transportation system plan or comprehensive plan when ODOT provides a written statement that the improvements are reasonably likely to be provided by the end of the planning period. (E) Improvements to regional and local roads, streets or other transportation facilities or services that are included as planned improvements in a regional por local transportation system plan or comprehensive plan when the local government9s) or transportation service provider(s) responsible for the facility, improvement or service provides a written statement that the facility, improvement or service is reasonably likely to be provided by the end of the planning period. (c) Within interstate interchange areas, the improvements included in (b) (A-(C) are considered planned facilities, improvements and services, except where: (A) ODOT provides a written statement that the proposed funding and timing of mitigation measures are sufficient to avoid a significant adverse impact on the Interstate Highway system, then local governments may also rely on the improvements identified in paragraphs (b)(D) and (E) of this section; or, (B) There is an adopted interchange area management plan, then local government may also rely on the improvements identified in that plan and which are also identified in paragraphs (b)(D) and (E) of this section.

(e) For purposes of this section, a written statement provided pursuant to paragraphs (b)(D), (b)(E), or (c)(A) provided by ODOT, a local government or transportation facility provider, as appropriate, shall be conclusive in determining whether a transportation facility, improvement or service is a planned transportation facility, improvement or service. In the absence of a written statement, a local government can only rely upon planned transportation facilities, improvements and services identified in paragraphs (b)(A)-(C) to determine whether there is a significant effect that requires application of the remedies in section (2). Finding OAR 660-012-0060(4): As demonstrated in the findings and conclusions for OAR 660-012-0060(1), the proposed amendment does not significantly affect transportation facilities. Conclusion OAR 660-012-0060(4): Not applicable. (5) The presence of a transportation facility or improvement shall not be a basis for an exception to allow residential, commercial, institutional, or industrial development on rural lands under this division or OAR 660-004-0022 and 660-004-0028. Finding OAR 660-012-0060(5): The application is for an amendment within city limits on lands zoned for commercial use and is not on rural lands. No exceptions are requested as part of the application. Conclusion OAR 660-012-0060(5): Not applicable. (6) If a local government is determining whether proposed land uses would affect or be consistent with planned transportation facilities as provided in sections (1) and (2) using a performance standard based on projected levels of motor vehicle traffic, then the local government shall give full credit for potential reduction in vehicle trips for uses located in mixed-use, pedestrian- friendly centers, and neighborhoods as provided in subsections (a)–(d); 6.A.a Packet Pg. 45 At t a c h m e n t : C P A - 2 3 0 0 2 _ A t t a c h m e n t s ( 1 6 9 0 : C e n t r a l P o i n t S t a t i o n , P h a s e 2 - C o m p P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) Planning Department Findings Page 13 of 20 (a) Absent adopted local standards or detailed information about the vehicle trip reduction benefits of mixed-use, pedestrian-friendly development, local governments shall assume that uses located within a mixed-use, pedestrian-friendly center, or neighborhood, will generate 10 percent fewer daily and peak hour trips than are specified in available published estimates, such as those provided by the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Manual that do not specifically account for the effects of mixed- use, pedestrian-friendly development. The 10 percent reduction allowed for by this subsection shall be available only if uses that rely solely on auto trips, such as gas stations, car washes, storage facilities, and motels are prohibited; (b) Local governments shall use detailed or local information about the trip reduction benefits of mixed-use, pedestrian-friendly development where such information is available and presented to the local government. Local governments may, based on such information, allow reductions greater than the 10 percent reduction required in subsection (a); (c) Where a local government assumes or estimates lower vehicle trip generation as provided in subsection (a) or (b), it shall ensure through conditions of approval, site plans, or approval standards that subsequent development approvals support the development of a mixed-use, pedestrian-friendly center or neighborhood and provide for on-site bike and pedestrian connectivity and access to transit as provided for in OAR 660-012-0045(3) and (4). The provision of on-site bike and pedestrian connectivity and access to transit may be accomplished through application of acknowledged ordinance provisions which comply with OAR 660-012-0045(3) and (4) or through conditions of approval or findings adopted with the plan amendment that ensure compliance with these rule requirements at the time of development approval; and (d) The purpose of this section is to provide an incentive for the designation and implementation of pedestrian-friendly, mixed-use centers and neighborhoods by lowering the regulatory barriers to plan amendments that accomplish this type of development. The actual trip reduction benefits of mixed-use, pedestrian-friendly development will vary from case to case and may be somewhat higher or lower than presumed pursuant to subsection (a). The commission concludes that this assumption is warranted given general information about the expected effects of mixed-use, pedestrian-friendly development and its intent to encourage changes to plans and development patterns. Nothing in this section is intended to affect the application of provisions in local plans or ordinances that provide for the calculation or assessment of systems development charges or in preparing conformity determinations required under the federal Clean Air Act Finding OAR 660-012-0060(6): See Finding OAR 660-012-0060(1).

Finding OAR 660-012-0060(7): The subject property is less than two acres in size and the proposed amendment seeks to change the comprehensive plan designation from commercial to high-density residential. The Transportation System Plan for the City of Central Point was acknowledged in 2008. As demonstrated in the findings and conclusions for OAR 660-012- 0060(1), the proposed amendment does not significantly affect transportation facilities. Conclusion OAR 660-012-0060(7): Not applicable. (8) A “mixed-use, pedestrian-friendly center or neighborhood” for the purposes of this rule, means: (d) Any one of the following: i. An existing central business district or downtown; ii. An area designated as a central city, regional center, town center, or main street in the Portland Metro 2040 Regional Growth Concept; iii. An area designated in an acknowledged comprehensive plan as a transit-oriented development or a pedestrian district; or iv. An area designated as a special transportation area as provided for in the Oregon Highway Plan. (e) An area other than those listed in subsection (a) which includes or is planned to include the following characteristics: 6.A.a Packet Pg. 47 At t a c h m e n t : C P A - 2 3 0 0 2 _ A t t a c h m e n t s ( 1 6 9 0 : C e n t r a l P o i n t S t a t i o n , P h a s e 2 - C o m p P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) Planning Department Findings Page 15 of 20 (A) A concentration of a variety of land uses in a well-defined area, including the following: (i) Medium to high density residential development (12 or more units per acre); (ii) Offices or office buildings; (iii) Retail stores and services; (iv) Restaurants; and (v) Public open space or private open space that is available for public use, such as a park or plaza. (B) Generally include civic or cultural uses; (C) A core commercial area where multi-story buildings are permitted; (D) Buildings and building entrances oriented to streets; (E) Street connections and crossings that make the center safe and conveniently accessible from adjacent areas; (F) A network of streets and, where appropriate, accessways and major driveways that make it attractive and highly convenient for people to walk between uses within the center or neighborhood, including streets and major driveways within the center with wide sidewalks and other features, including pedestrian-oriented street crossings, street trees, pedestrian-scale lighting and on-street parking; (G) One or more transit stops (in urban areas with fixed route transit service); and (H) Limit or do not allow low-intensity or land extensive uses, such as most industrial uses, automobile sales and services, and drive-through services. Finding OAR 660-012-0060(8): The subject property meets the definition of a mixed use, pedestrian-friendly center or neighborhood as it is located within a transit oriented development designated on the comprehensive plan map. Conclusion OAR 660-012-0060(8): Consistent. (9) Notwithstanding section (1) of this rule, a local government may find that an amendment to a zoning map does not significantly affect an existing or planned facility if all of the following requirements are met: 6.A.a Packet Pg. 48 At t a c h m e n t : C P A - 2 3 0 0 2 _ A t t a c h m e n t s ( 1 6 9 0 : C e n t r a l P o i n t S t a t i o n , P h a s e 2 - C o m p P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) Planning Department Findings Page 16 of 20 (a) The proposed zoning is consistent with the existing comprehensive plan map designation and the amendment does not change the comprehensive plan map; Finding OAR 660-012-0060(9)(a): The City of Central Point uses a two (2) map system with the Comprehensive Plan Map and the Land Use Map. The Comprehensive Plan Map provides a broad view of development within the City; whereas, the Land Use Map, commonly referred to as the Zoning Map, represents the spatial distribution of all land uses and provides parcel specific information for development. The application for comprehensive plan map amendment is being processed concurrently with an application for a Zone Map Amendment (see File No. ZC-23002) that proposes to change the zone map to change the zoning to High Mix Residential (HMR) that is consistent with the proposed high density residential designation in the comprehensive plan. Conclusion OAR 660-012-0060(9)(a): Consistent. (b) The local government has an acknowledged TSP and the proposed zoning is consistent with the TSP; and, Finding OAR 660-012-0060(9)(b): The Transportation System Plan for the City of Central Point was acknowledged in 2008 and updated in 2023. The Land Use Goals and Policies in the TSP direct the City to effectively manage the use of land within the urbanized area and manage the Land Element of the Comprehensive Plan in a manner that is consistent with the successful implementation of the TSP. The Land Use Element determines where a land use will be physically sited, how it will be managed to achieve the City’s land use goals and includes the street classification system for all streets within the City’s urban area to ensure the land uses are compatible with the surrounding infrastructure. At the time the TSP and Land Use Element were acknowledged, they were in balance. As demonstrated in the findings and conclusions for OAR 660-012-0060(1), the proposed amendment does not significantly affect transportation facilities; therefore it can be concluded that the proposed zoning remains consistent with the TSP. Conclusion OAR 660-012-0060(9)(b): Consistent. (c) The area subject to the zoning map amendment was not exempted from this rule at the time of an urban growth boundary amendment as permitted in OAR 660-024-0020(1)(d), or the area was exempted from this rule but the local government has a subsequently acknowledged TSP amendment that accounted for urbanization of the area. Finding OAR 660-012-0060(9)(c): The subject property and the surrounding area were not exempted from the Transportation Planning Rule at the time of an urban growth boundary expansion. 6.A.a Packet Pg. 49 At t a c h m e n t : C P A - 2 3 0 0 2 _ A t t a c h m e n t s ( 1 6 9 0 : C e n t r a l P o i n t S t a t i o n , P h a s e 2 - C o m p P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) Planning Department Findings Page 17 of 20 Conclusion OAR 660-012-0060(9)(c): Not applicable. (10) Notwithstanding sections (1) and (2) of this rule, a local government may amend a functional plan, a comprehensive plan or a land use regulation without applying performance standards related to motor vehicle traffic congestion (e.g. volume to capacity ratio or V/C), delay or travel time if the amendment meets the requirements of subsection (a) of this section. This section does not exempt a proposed amendment from other transportation performance standards or policies that may apply including, but not limited to, safety for all modes, network connectivity for all modes (e.g. sidewalks, bicycle lanes) and accessibility for freight vehicles of a size and frequency required by the development. (a) A proposed amendment qualifies for this section if it: (A) Is a map or text amendment affecting only land entirely within a multimodal mixed-use area (MMA); and (B) Is consistent with the definition of an MMA and consistent with the function of the MMA as described in the findings designating the MMA. (b) For the purpose of this rule, “multimodal mixed-use area” or “MMA” means an area: (A) With a boundary adopted by a local government as provided in subsection (d) or (e) of this section and that has been acknowledged; (B) Entirely within an urban growth boundary; (C) With adopted plans and development regulations that allow the uses listed in paragraphs (8)(b)(A) through (C) of this rule and that require new development to be consistent with the characteristics listed in paragraphs (8)(b)(D) through (H) of this rule; (D) With land use regulations that do not require the provision of off-street parking, or regulations that require lower levels of off-street parking than required in other areas and allow flexibility to meet the parking requirements (e.g. count on-street parking, allow long-term leases, allow shared parking); and (E) Located in one or more of the categories below: (i) At least one-quarter mile from any ramp terminal intersection of existing or planned interchanges; 6.A.a Packet Pg. 50 At t a c h m e n t : C P A - 2 3 0 0 2 _ A t t a c h m e n t s ( 1 6 9 0 : C e n t r a l P o i n t S t a t i o n , P h a s e 2 - C o m p P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) Planning Department Findings Page 18 of 20 (ii) Within the area of an adopted Interchange Area Management Plan (IAMP) and consistent with the IAMP; or (iii) Within one-quarter mile of a ramp terminal intersection of an existing or planned interchange if the mainline facility provider has provided written concurrence with the MMA designation as provided in subsection (c) of this section. (c) When a mainline facility provider reviews an MMA designation as provided in subparagraph (b)(E)(iii) of this section, the provider must consider the factors listed in paragraph (A) of this subsection. (A) The potential for operational or safety effects to the interchange area and the mainline highway, specifically considering: (i) Whether the interchange area has a crash rate that is higher than the statewide crash rate for similar facilities; (ii) Whether the interchange area is in the top ten percent of locations identified by the safety priority index system (SPIS) developed by ODOT; and (iii) Whether existing or potential future traffic queues on the interchange exit ramps extend onto the mainline highway or the portion of the ramp needed to safely accommodate deceleration. (B) If there are operational or safety effects as described in paragraph (A) of this subsection, the effects may be addressed by an agreement between the local government and the facility provider regarding traffic management plans favoring traffic movements away from the interchange, particularly those facilitating clearing traffic queues on the interchange exit ramps. (d) A local government may designate an MMA by adopting an amendment to the comprehensive plan or land use regulations to delineate the boundary following an existing zone, multiple existing zones, an urban renewal area, other existing boundary, or establishing a new boundary. The designation must be accompanied by findings showing how the area meets the definition of an MMA. Designation of an MMA is not subject to the requirements in sections (1) and (2) of this rule. (e) A local government may designate an MMA on an area where comprehensive plan map designations or land use regulations do not meet the definition, if all of the other elements meet the definition, by concurrently adopting comprehensive plan or land use regulation amendments necessary to meet the definition. Such amendments are not subject to performance standards related to motor vehicle traffic congestion, delay or travel time. 6.A.a Packet Pg. 51 At t a c h m e n t : C P A - 2 3 0 0 2 _ A t t a c h m e n t s ( 1 6 9 0 : C e n t r a l P o i n t S t a t i o n , P h a s e 2 - C o m p P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) Planning Department Findings Page 19 of 20 Finding OAR 660-012-0060(10): The proposed amendment affects land within an Activity Center, an area designated in the comprehensive plan for mixed uses with medium to high density. The activity center promotes pedestrian oriented development with transit services. However, the activity centers are not consistent with the definition of a Mulitmodal Mixed Use Area (MMA), as defined in the TPR. As shown in the Applicant’s Trip Generation Analysis and demonstrated in the findings and conclusions for OAR 660-012-0060(1), the proposed amendment does not significantly affect transportation facilities and the functional plan will not change. Conclusion OAR 660-012-0060(10): Not applicable. (11) A local government may approve an amendment with partial mitigation as provided in section (2) of this rule if the amendment complies with subsection (a) of this section, the amendment meets the balancing test in subsection (b) of this section, and the local government coordinates as provided in subsection (c) of this section. (a) The amendment must meet paragraphs (A) and (B) of this subsection. (A) Create direct benefits in terms of industrial or traded-sector jobs created or retained by limiting uses to industrial or traded-sector industries. (B) Not allow retail uses, except limited retail incidental to industrial or traded sector development, not to exceed five percent of the net developable area. (C) For the purpose of this section: (i) “Industrial” means employment activities generating income from the production, handling, or distribution of goods including, but not limited to, manufacturing, assembly, fabrication, processing, storage, logistics, warehousing, importation, distribution and transshipment, and research and development. (ii) “Traded-sector” means industries in which member firms sell their goods or services into markets for which national or international competition exists. (b) A local government may accept partial mitigation only if the local government determines that the benefits outweigh the negative effects on local transportation facilities and the local government receives from the provider of any transportation facility that would be significantly affected written concurrence that the benefits outweigh the negative effects on their transportation facilities. If the amendment significantly affects a state highway, then ODOT must coordinate with the Oregon Business Development Department regarding the economic and job creation benefits of the proposed amendment 6.A.a Packet Pg. 52 At t a c h m e n t : C P A - 2 3 0 0 2 _ A t t a c h m e n t s ( 1 6 9 0 : C e n t r a l P o i n t S t a t i o n , P h a s e 2 - C o m p P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) Planning Department Findings Page 20 of 20 as defined in subsection (a) of this section. The requirement to obtain concurrence from a provider is satisfied if the local government provides notice as required by subsection (c) of this section and the provider does not respond in writing (either concurring or non- concurring) within 45 days. (c) A local government that proposes to use this section must coordinate with Oregon Business Development Department, Department of Land Conservation and Development, area commission on transportation, metropolitan planning organization, and transportation providers and local governments directly impacted by the proposal to allow opportunities for comments on whether the proposed amendment meets the definition of economic development, how it would affect transportation facilities and the adequacy of proposed mitigation. Informal consultation is encouraged throughout the process starting with pre-application meetings. Coordination has the meaning given in ORS 197.015 and Goal 2 and must include notice at least 45 days before the first evidentiary hearing. Notice must include the following: (A) Proposed amendment. (B) Proposed mitigating actions from section (2) of this rule. (C) Analysis and projections of the extent to which the proposed amendment in combination with proposed mitigating actions would fall short of being consistent with the performance standards of transportation facilities. (D) Findings showing how the proposed amendment meets the requirements of subsection (a) of this section. (E) Findings showing that the benefits of the proposed amendment outweigh the negative effects on transportation facilities Finding OAR 660-012-0060(10): As shown in the Applicant’s Trip Generation Analysis and demonstrated in the findings and conclusions for OAR 660-012-0060(1), the amendment does not significantly affect transportation facilities, the functional plan will not change and mitigation is not required. Conclusion OAR 660-012-0060(10): Not applicable. PART 3 – CONCLUSION As evidenced in findings and conclusions provided in Part 2, the proposed comprehensive plan map amendment is consistent with applicable standards and criteria in the Central Point Municipal Code, including the Statewide Planning Goals (where applicable), Comprehensive Plan, and Statewide Transportation Planning Rule. 6.A.a Packet Pg. 53 At t a c h m e n t : C P A - 2 3 0 0 2 _ A t t a c h m e n t s ( 1 6 9 0 : C e n t r a l P o i n t S t a t i o n , P h a s e 2 - C o m p P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) MEMORANDUM To: City of Central Point Planning Division 140 South Third Street Central Point, OR 97502 Date: 04/17/2023 Project: Central Point Station Phase 2 - Plan Amendment and Zone Change Subject: Trip Generation Assessment Southern Oregon Transportation Engineering prepared a trip generation assessment for a proposed Minor Comprehensive Plan Amendment and zone change from Employment Commercial (EC TOD) to High Mix Residential / Commercial (HMR/TOD) on 1.62 acres located along the south side of Twin Creeks Crossing, west of the railroad tracks (372W03CA tax lot 1500) in Central Point, Oregon. Our assessment is provided below. BACKGROUND The proposed plan amendment and zone change from EC to HMR/Commercial allows the same highest and best uses, which are commercial uses. For the Transportation Planning Rule (TPR) assessment, the potential trip generation for the proposed plan amendment and zone change is a net zero increase or no increase to the transportation system. For the proposed site plan assessment, the planned uses on the site include high density residential and commercial, with 45 multi-family residential (MFR) units and 2,514 square feet (SF) of commercial gross floor area (GFA). A site plan is shown below. 319 Eastwood Drive Medford, OR 97504 Telephone 541.941.4148 Kim.parducci@gmail.com 6.A.a Packet Pg. 54 At t a c h m e n t : C P A - 2 3 0 0 2 _ A t t a c h m e n t s ( 1 6 9 0 : C e n t r a l P o i n t S t a t i o n , P h a s e 2 - C o m p P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) Central Point Station Phase 2 Plan Amendment / ZC – Trip Generation Assessment 2 TRIP GENERATION The Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Manual, 11th Edition was used to generate trips for the proposed plan amendment and zone change analysis. Land use 220 – Multifamily Housing and 822 – Strip Retail Plaza (<40k) were used in the analysis. A summary of results is provided in Table 1. ITE graphs and land use descriptions are provided in the attachments. SF = square feet, DU = dwelling unit 1. Land Use 822 weekday rate based on fitted curve equation 2. Land Use 220 weekday, a.m., and p.m. rates based on fitted curve equations As shown in Table 1, the highest and best use within both the base zoning (EC TOD) and proposed zoning (HMR/Commercial TOD) is a commercial use and results in no net increase to the transportation system. The trip generations in Table 1 assume 25% buildout (17,950 SF) for commercial development, but this could be higher or lower depending on site layout. Comparing 25% buildout of commercial development to the proposed site plan (45 multifamily units + 2,514 SF of commercial) shows a net decrease of 287 average daily trips (ADT) overall. AGENCY REQUIREMENTS The City of Central Point requires a traffic impact analysis (Public Works Standards and Specifications 320.10.03(3)) when trip generations fall within specific ranges. These include a change in zoning or plan amendment that generates 300 average daily trips (ADT) more than current zoning, an increase in site traffic by 250 ADT or 25 peak hour trips, an increase in peak hour volume of a particular movement to and from the State highway by 20%, or an increase in use of adjacent streets by vehicles exceeding 20,000 pounds gross vehicle weight. None of the TIA requirements are shown to be met. No TIA, therefore, is shown to be required unless the City has a safety concern that we are unaware of. ODOT Development Review Guidelines (Chapter 3.3) provide traffic impact analysis thresholds for various types of developments. A TIA is required to address the TPR when a proposed land use change results in an increase of 1000 ADT or greater than 400 ADT on a Table 1 – Central Point Station GLUP Amendment and Zone Change Trip Generations Land Use Unit Size Daily Trips Weekday AM Peak Hour Weekday PM Peak Hour Total (In) (Out) Total (In) (Out) Base Zoning EC TOD 822 – Strip Retail Plaza 1000 SF 17.95 987 42 25 17 118 59 59 Proposed Zoning HMR/Commercial TOD 822 – Strip Retail Plaza 1000 SF 17.95 987 42 25 17 118 59 59 Proposed Site Plan 220 – Multifamily Housing DU 45 364 37 9 28 40 25 15 822 – Strip Retail Plaza 1000 SF 2.514 336 6 4 2 17 9 8 Site Plan Trip Total 700 43 13 30 57 34 23 Net Difference (potential) EC to HMR/Commercial 0 0 0 Net Difference (site plan) EC to HMR/Commercial -287 +1 -61 6.A.a Packet Pg. 55 At t a c h m e n t : C P A - 2 3 0 0 2 _ A t t a c h m e n t s ( 1 6 9 0 : C e n t r a l P o i n t S t a t i o n , P h a s e 2 - C o m p P l a n M a p A m e n d m e n t ) Central Point Station Phase 2 Plan Amendment / ZC – Trip Generation Assessment 3 highway section. The proposed plan amendment and zone change is shown to result in no net increase on the transportation system. The proposed site also does not take direct access to a State facility. No TIA, therefore, is expected to be required by ODOT. Based on the trip assessment for the proposed plan amendment and zone change, it is our conclusion that a traffic impact analysis is not shown to be required by City of Central Point or ODOT criteria. The proposed zone change is concluded to have no significant effect on existing or planned facilities in accordance with Division 12 of the Oregon Administrative Rules (OAR) 660-012-0060.

The subject property is located at the intersection of Twin Creeks Crossing and Boulder Ridge Street and is identified on the Jackson County Assessor’s map as 37S 2W 03CA, Tax Lot 1500. Applicant: Smith Crossing, LLC; Agent: Scott Sinner Consulting, Inc. Associated Files: CPA-23002, MP-23001, SPAR-23001 Staff Source Justin Gindlesperger, Community Planner II Background Smith Crossing, LLC (“Applicant”) has requested a Minor Zone Map Amendment from EC to HMR in the Twin Creeks TOD District. It’s the Applicant’s intent to develop the property with a mixed-use development that includes 45 multifamily residential units with limited ground floor commercial uses along the Twin Creeks Crossing frontage and multifamily buildings interior to the site. The proposed zone change would allow mixed-use opportunities on this site, including vertical (mixed use in the same building) and horizontal (mixed use in separate buildings on a site). In consideration of this application, there are three (3) criteria that must be addressed per CPMC 17.10.400: 1. Comprehensive Plan Compliance. Review of the Comprehensive Plan identified several relevant policies that promote efficient patterns of mixed land uses, ensure an adequate supply of employment lands that are appropriate for small businesses and a need to maintain the zoning within commercial areas of the City. The current EC zone designation permits a broad range of commercial uses along with multifamily uses only when located above the ground floor commercial as part of vertical mixed uses. The proposed zone map change maintains mixed-use opportunities on this site, including vertical (mixed use in the same building) and horizontal (mixed use in separate buildings on a site). 2. Compatibility with Surround Land Uses and Zoning. The proposed Zone Map Change is for a single, 1.62 acre property at the intersection of Twin Creeks Crossing and Boulder Ridge Street. The properties to the south and west are developed with residential uses in the High Mix Residential (HMR) and Medium Mix Residential (MMR) zones, respectively. Amending the zone map to include the subject property in the HMR zone is consistent with the existing zoning and land uses of the adjacent properties and 6.B Packet Pg. 59 maintains mixed uses opportunities on the site. 3. Traffic Impacts/Transportation Planning Rule Compliance. The State Transportation Planning Rule (TPR) in OAR 660-012-0060 requires changes to land use plans and land use regulations (i.e. Comprehensive Plan Map Amendments and Zoning Map Amendments) to be consistent with the function and capacity of existing and planned transportation facilities. The development of the subject property was considered during the approval of the Twin Creeks Master Plan, which includes analysis of transportation needs, traffic circulation and transit services. A Trip Generation Analysis, prepared by Southern Oregon Transportation Engineering dated April 17, 2023, evaluated the proposed zone change from EC to HMR and concluded the proposed map amendment will not generate additional impacts on transportation facilities. Issues None. Findings of Fact & Conclusions of Law The Central Point Station, Phase 2, Minor Zone Map Amendment has been evaluated against the applicable criteria set forth in CPMC 17.10 and found to comply as evidenced in the Applicant’s Restated Findings of Fact (Attachments “C”), the Planning Department Supplemental Findings (Attachment “D”) and the Staff Report dated June 6, 2023. Conditions of Approval None.

Applicant: ) Findings of Fact Smith Crossing LLC ) and 353 Dalton Street ) Conclusion of Law Medford OR 97501 ) PART 1 INTRODUCTION The proposed zone map amendment requests to rezone the above property, located within the City of Central Point Transit Oriented Development (TOD) District, from Employment Commercial (EC) to High Mix Residential (HMR). The Minor Zoning Map Amendment request is quasi-judicial and is subject to Type III application procedures set forth in Section 17.05.400. Applicable development code criteria for this Application include CPMC 17.10, which includes compliance with the statewide planning goals, comprehensive plan and Transportation Planning Rule. The amendment’s compliance with applicable criteria are presented in Part 2 and summarized in Part 3. PROJECT BACKGROUND The applicant proposes a 45-unit multifamily development with limited ground floor commercial uses along the Twin Creeks Crossing frontage. The 1.62 acre project site is zoned Employment Commercial (EC) and is identified in the Twin Creeks Master Plan as a site to provide 1-2 stories of retail, professional office uses. The proposed use is not consistent with the current zoning district, which only allows residential units above ground floor commercial. The current application proposes to modify the zone map from Employment Commercial (EC) to High Mix Residential (HMR). The proposed modification would permit mixed use opportunities on the site, including vertical (mixed use in same building) and horizontal (mixed use in adjacent buildings). The City of Central Point uses a two (2) map system with the Comprehensive Plan Map and the Land Use Map. The Comprehensive Plan Map provides a broad view of development within the City; whereas, the Land Use Map, commonly referred to as the Zoning Map, represents the spatial distribution of all land uses and provides parcel specific information for development. The Land Use Element of the City’s Comprehensive Plan requires the Comprehensive Plan Map and the Zoning Map to maintain consistency at all times. Therefore, the application for zone map amendment is accompanied by, and being processed concurrently with, an application for a Comprehensive Plan Amendment (see File No. CPA-23002) that proposes to change the comprehensive plan map to high density residential that is consistent with the proposed zone change to High Mix Residential zoning. 6.B.a Packet Pg. 72 At t a c h m e n t : Z C - 2 3 0 0 2 _ A t t a c h m e n t s ( 1 6 9 1 : C e n t r a l P o i n t S t a t i o n , P h a s e 2 - Z o n e M a p A m e n d m e n t ) Planning Department Findings Page 2 of 3 PART 2 - ZONING CODE COMPLIANCE 17.10.200 Initiation of amendments. A proposed amendment to the code or zoning map may be initiated by either: A. A resolution by the planning commission to the city council; B. A resolution of intent by the city council; or for zoning map amendments; C. An application by one or more property owners (zoning map amendments only), or their agents, of property affected by the proposed amendment. The amendment shall be accompanied by a legal description of the property or properties affected; proposed findings of facts supporting the proposed amendment, justifying the same and addressing the substantive standards for such an amendment as required by this chapter and by the Land Conservation and Development Commission of the state. (Ord. 1989 §1(part), 2014). Finding CPMC 17.10.200: The Planning Division received an application by the listed applicant and designated agent for the zone change request. The application was accepted as complete on April 18, 2023, indicating the application complied with the required submittals of this Chapter. Conclusion 17.10.200: Consistent. 17.10.300 Major and minor amendments. There are two types of map and text amendments: A. Major Amendments. Major amendments are legislative policy decisions that establish by law general policies and regulations for future land use decisions, such as revisions to the zoning and land division ordinance that have widespread and significant impact beyond the immediate area. Major amendments are reviewed using the Type IV procedure in Section 17.05.500. B. Minor Amendments. Minor amendments are those that involve the application of adopted policy to a specific development application, and not the adoption of new policy (i.e., major amendments). Minor amendments shall follow the Type III procedure, as set forth in Section 17.05.400. The approval authority shall be the city council after review and recommendation by the planning commission. (Ord. 1989 §1(part), 2014; Ord. 1874 §3(part), 2006). Finding CPMC 17.10.300: The proposed amendment is the application of adopted policy to a particular property and is not the adoption of new policy. The requested change is a Minor Amendment and have been processed in accordance with Type III procedures in CPMC 17.05.400. Conclusion CPMC 17.10.300: Consistent. 17.10.400 Approval criteria. A recommendation or a decision to approve, approve with conditions or to deny an application for a text or map amendment shall be based on written findings and conclusions that address the following criteria: A. Approval of the request is consistent with the applicable statewide planning goals (major amendments only); Finding CPMC 17.10.400 (A): As evidenced in findings for CPMC 17.10.300, the proposed amendment is a Minor Amendment to the zoning map. 6.B.a Packet Pg. 73 At t a c h m e n t : Z C - 2 3 0 0 2 _ A t t a c h m e n t s ( 1 6 9 1 : C e n t r a l P o i n t S t a t i o n , P h a s e 2 - Z o n e M a p A m e n d m e n t ) Planning Department Findings Page 3 of 3 Conclusion CPMC 17.10.400(A): Not applicable.

If a zoning map amendment, findings demonstrating that adequate public services and transportation networks to serve the property are either available, or identified for construction in the city’s public facilities master plans (major and minor amendments); and Finding CPMC 17.10.400 (C): The development of the subject property was considered during the approval of the Twin Creeks Master Plan, which includes analysis of transportation needs, traffic circulation and transit services. A Trip Generation Analysis, prepared by Southern Oregon Transportation Engineering dated April 17, 2023, concludes the proposed map amendment will not generate additional impacts on transportation facilities. Conclusion CPMC 17.10.400(C): Consistent. D. The amendment complies with OAR 660-012-0060 of the Transportation Planning Rule. (Ord. 1989 §1(part), 2014; Ord. 1874 §3(part), 2006. Formerly 17.10.300(B)). Finding CPMC 17.10.400(D): The proposed amendment is processed and reviewed concurrently with an application for a corresponding comprehensive plan map amendment. As demonstrated in the findings and conclusions for CPMC 17.96.500(D), the proposed map amendment is consistent with OAR-660-012- 0060 of the Transportation Planning Rule. See PART 2 – Zoning Code Compliance of Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law for File No. CPA-23002, dated June 6, 2023. Conclusion CPMC 17.10.400(D): Consistent. PART 3 – CONCLUSION As evidenced in findings and conclusions provided in Part 2, the proposed zone map amendment is consistent with applicable standards and criteria in the Central Point Municipal Code, including the Statewide Planning Goals (where applicable), Comprehensive Plan, and Statewide Transportation Planning Rule. 6.B.a Packet Pg. 74 At t a c h m e n t : Z C - 2 3 0 0 2 _ A t t a c h m e n t s ( 1 6 9 1 : C e n t r a l P o i n t S t a t i o n , P h a s e 2 - Z o n e M a p A m e n d m e n t ) MEMORANDUM To: City of Central Point Planning Division 140 South Third Street Central Point, OR 97502 Date: 04/17/2023 Project: Central Point Station Phase 2 - Plan Amendment and Zone Change Subject: Trip Generation Assessment Southern Oregon Transportation Engineering prepared a trip generation assessment for a proposed Minor Comprehensive Plan Amendment and zone change from Employment Commercial (EC TOD) to High Mix Residential / Commercial (HMR/TOD) on 1.62 acres located along the south side of Twin Creeks Crossing, west of the railroad tracks (372W03CA tax lot 1500) in Central Point, Oregon. Our assessment is provided below. BACKGROUND The proposed plan amendment and zone change from EC to HMR/Commercial allows the same highest and best uses, which are commercial uses. For the Transportation Planning Rule (TPR) assessment, the potential trip generation for the proposed plan amendment and zone change is a net zero increase or no increase to the transportation system. For the proposed site plan assessment, the planned uses on the site include high density residential and commercial, with 45 multi-family residential (MFR) units and 2,514 square feet (SF) of commercial gross floor area (GFA). A site plan is shown below. 319 Eastwood Drive Medford, OR 97504 Telephone 541.941.4148 Kim.parducci@gmail.com 6.B.a Packet Pg. 75 At t a c h m e n t : Z C - 2 3 0 0 2 _ A t t a c h m e n t s ( 1 6 9 1 : C e n t r a l P o i n t S t a t i o n , P h a s e 2 - Z o n e M a p A m e n d m e n t ) Central Point Station Phase 2 Plan Amendment / ZC – Trip Generation Assessment 2 TRIP GENERATION The Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Manual, 11th Edition was used to generate trips for the proposed plan amendment and zone change analysis. Land use 220 – Multifamily Housing and 822 – Strip Retail Plaza (<40k) were used in the analysis. A summary of results is provided in Table 1. ITE graphs and land use descriptions are provided in the attachments. SF = square feet, DU = dwelling unit 1. Land Use 822 weekday rate based on fitted curve equation 2. Land Use 220 weekday, a.m., and p.m. rates based on fitted curve equations As shown in Table 1, the highest and best use within both the base zoning (EC TOD) and proposed zoning (HMR/Commercial TOD) is a commercial use and results in no net increase to the transportation system. The trip generations in Table 1 assume 25% buildout (17,950 SF) for commercial development, but this could be higher or lower depending on site layout. Comparing 25% buildout of commercial development to the proposed site plan (45 multifamily units + 2,514 SF of commercial) shows a net decrease of 287 average daily trips (ADT) overall. AGENCY REQUIREMENTS The City of Central Point requires a traffic impact analysis (Public Works Standards and Specifications 320.10.03(3)) when trip generations fall within specific ranges. These include a change in zoning or plan amendment that generates 300 average daily trips (ADT) more than current zoning, an increase in site traffic by 250 ADT or 25 peak hour trips, an increase in peak hour volume of a particular movement to and from the State highway by 20%, or an increase in use of adjacent streets by vehicles exceeding 20,000 pounds gross vehicle weight. None of the TIA requirements are shown to be met. No TIA, therefore, is shown to be required unless the City has a safety concern that we are unaware of. ODOT Development Review Guidelines (Chapter 3.3) provide traffic impact analysis thresholds for various types of developments. A TIA is required to address the TPR when a proposed land use change results in an increase of 1000 ADT or greater than 400 ADT on a Table 1 – Central Point Station GLUP Amendment and Zone Change Trip Generations Land Use Unit Size Daily Trips Weekday AM Peak Hour Weekday PM Peak Hour Total (In) (Out) Total (In) (Out) Base Zoning EC TOD 822 – Strip Retail Plaza 1000 SF 17.95 987 42 25 17 118 59 59 Proposed Zoning HMR/Commercial TOD 822 – Strip Retail Plaza 1000 SF 17.95 987 42 25 17 118 59 59 Proposed Site Plan 220 – Multifamily Housing DU 45 364 37 9 28 40 25 15 822 – Strip Retail Plaza 1000 SF 2.514 336 6 4 2 17 9 8 Site Plan Trip Total 700 43 13 30 57 34 23 Net Difference (potential) EC to HMR/Commercial 0 0 0 Net Difference (site plan) EC to HMR/Commercial -287 +1 -61 6.B.a Packet Pg. 76 At t a c h m e n t : Z C - 2 3 0 0 2 _ A t t a c h m e n t s ( 1 6 9 1 : C e n t r a l P o i n t S t a t i o n , P h a s e 2 - Z o n e M a p A m e n d m e n t ) Central Point Station Phase 2 Plan Amendment / ZC – Trip Generation Assessment 3 highway section. The proposed plan amendment and zone change is shown to result in no net increase on the transportation system. The proposed site also does not take direct access to a State facility. No TIA, therefore, is expected to be required by ODOT. Based on the trip assessment for the proposed plan amendment and zone change, it is our conclusion that a traffic impact analysis is not shown to be required by City of Central Point or ODOT criteria.

The 1.62 acre site is located at the intersection of Twin Creeks Crossing and Boulder Ridge Street and is identified on the Jackson County Assessor’s map as 37S 2W 03CA, Tax Lot 1500. Applicant: Smith Crossing, LLC; Agent: Scott Sinner Consulting, Inc. Associated Files: CPA-23002, ZC-23002, SPAR-23001 Staff Source Justin Gindlesperger, Community Planner II Background The Twin Creeks TOD Master Plan was approved in December 2000 to guide development within an approximately 230-acre land area in accordance with the TOD district zoning and design standards. At this time, Smith Crossing, LLC (“Applicant”) has requested a Master Plan Amendment to the Twin Creeks Master Plan with the intent to develop the property with a 45- unit multifamily development with limited ground floor commercial uses along the Twin Creeks Crossing frontage and multifamily residential interior to the site. The current application proposes the following: · Revise the Land Use Plan (Exhibit 18), the Mixed Use Plan (Exhibit 36) and the Civic and Commercial Plan (Exhibit 37) of the Twin Creeks Master Plan to change the land use designation to High Mix Residential/Commercial and permit horizontal mixed-use development (mixed uses in adjacent buildings). · Amend the Circulation Plan (Exhibit 3) of the Twin Creeks Master Plan to realign a pedestrian accessway location from the east side of the property to the west side of the property. Discussion: The property was recently approved for a zone change to HMR. The HMR zone permits mixed use opportunities on the site, including vertical (mixed in same building) and horizontal (mixed use in adjacent buildings). The 1.62 acre project site is identified in the Twin Creeks Master Plan as a site to provide 1-2 stories of destination retail and professional office uses. The subject property is currently undeveloped and adjacent to developed properties on the south and west within the High Density Residential/HMR and Medium Density/ Medium Mix Residential (MMR) zones. The property is located along the south side of Twin Creeks Crossing at the intersection with Boulder Ridge Street. In this area, Twin Creeks Crossing is a divided street with a center median, limiting full-movement access at Boulder Ridge Street. This configuration is due to the close proximity with Rogue Valley Highway/Highway 99, multiple turning lanes at that intersection and higher traffic volumes. Boulder Ridge Street, abutting the west side of the 6.C Packet Pg. 80 property, extends less than 150-feet from the Twin Creeks Crossing right-of-way and does not connect to another public right-of-way, further limiting vehicle circulation and access to/from the subject property. The proposed development is consistent with the existing development pattern in the area, connects to the existing streets and provides circulation through the existing development to the south. The current application is under review concurrently with requests to amend the comprehensive plan map, amend the zoning map, and a site plan and architectural review for the proposed development. Issues There are two (2) issues relative to this project as set forth below: 1. Change Land Use Designation. The applicant proposes to change the land use designation of the property to High Mix Residential/Commercial (HMR) in order to construct a horizontal mixed-use development (mixed uses in adjacent buildings). The current proposal includes leasable commercial floor area along Boulder Ridge Street and a portion of Twin Creeks Crossing, with the remainder of the development as multifamily residential units. The proposed use is not consistent with the current master plan, which only allows residential units above ground floor commercial. Comment: The proposed Master Plan Amendment will continue to provide mixed use opportunities on the site, including vertical (mixed use in the same building) and horizontal (mixed use in separate buildings on a site) while providing a transition from MMR development south of the subject property to leasable ground floor commercial along Twin Creeks Crossing. Limiting leasable commercial space to the street frontages will reduce commercial traffic into the site that has limited turning movements from Twin Creeks Crossing and will reduce conflicts with residential traffic interior to the site and the residential development to the south. Provided the leasable commercial areas in the horizontal mixed use are consistent with the Civic and Commercial Plan of the Twin Creeks Master Plan, the proposed change in land use designation is consistent with the Twin Creeks Master Plan. Staff recommends Condition of Approval No. 1 that requires the applicant to revise the site plan showing commercial floor area on the publicly visible areas of Building 1, including the west elevation along the Boulder Ridge Street frontage and north elevation along the entire Twin Creeks Crossing frontage. 2. Minor Pedestrian Accessway. The applicant proposes to realign the minor pedestrian accessway from the east side of the property as shown on the Circulation Plan (Exhibit 3) of the Twin Creeks Master Plan to the west side of the property and connect to an existing path on the property to the south, which is under common ownership with the subject property. Despite common ownership, there are no access easements between the properties. Per the standard identified in Master Plan Exhibit 12, a minor pedestrian accessway must provide a 24-inch landscape row on either side of the pathway. Comment: The Circulation Plan identifies the location of the pathway along Griffin Creek, adjacent to an area that was modified in 2014-2016 to mitigate floodway hazards on the Twin Creeks Master Plan area. The modifications resulted in steep grades down to the creek bed. The proposed realignment of the pedestrian pathway diverts pedestrians away from the steep grades and along the western portion of the subject site. Sections of the off-street accessway identified on the Circulation Plan are not constructed to the north of Twin Creeks Crossing, limiting connections as originally depicted. The proposed realignment extends an existing pathway from the adjacent development to the south and connects with an existing crosswalk at the intersection of Twin Creeks Crossing and Boulder Ridge Street, linking off-street pedestrian activity from N. Haskell to Twin Creeks Crossing. 6.C Packet Pg. 81 The proposed location, as depicted on the Site Plan (Attachment “B-1”), is abutting the west property boundary of the subject property. There is an existing three (3) foot wide landscape buffer between the path and the parking area on the adjacent property that will provide a vegetative buffer to the pedestrian path. Since the pedestrian accessway provides connection between public streets, Staff recommends Condition of Approval No 2 requiring an easement for public access for the realigned pedestrian accessway. Findings of Fact & Conclusions of Law The Central Point Station, Phase 2, Master Plan Amendment has been evaluated against the applicable criteria set forth in CPMC 17.66 and found to comply as evidenced in the Applicant’s Restated Findings of Fact (Attachments “C”), the Planning Department Supplemental Findings (Attachment “D”) and the Staff Report dated June 6, 2023. Conditions of Approval Approval of the Master Plan Amendment shall be subject to the following: 1. Prior to the issuance of any building permits, the applicant shall submit a revised site plan that depicts the ground floor of Building 1 providing leasable commercial floor area along the entire frontage of Twin Creeks Crossing and the frontage of Boulder Ridge Street. 2. Prior to the issuance of building permits, the Applicant shall provide a copy of a signed and recorded easement, as necessary, to allow for public access to the realigned pedestrian accessway.

Employment Commercial to High Density Mixed Use / TOD The TCMP currently iden9fies the subject property as Employment Commercial land. The applica9on has submi7ed the necessary applica9ons for a Minor Revision to the Comprehensive Plan Map, a Zone Map Amendment and a Site Plan Applica9on. The Central Point Municipal Code (CPMC) uses allowed in the in the EC zone and the HMR/TOD zone would allow for very similar mixed use development. Both zones allow mul9family housing, the EC zone requires all ground floor spaces in a development to be for commercial uses. The HMR/TOD zone allows mul9family uses with commercial uses on the street frontage. The applicant’s proposed development provides commercial uses, VRBO units, on the street frontage of Twin Creeks Crossing and the remainder of the ground floor spaces are all residen9al dwelling units. 6.C.a Packet Pg. 94 At t a c h m e n t : M P - 2 3 0 0 1 _ A t t a c h m e n t s ( 1 6 9 2 : C e n t r a l P o i n t S t a t i o n , P h a s e 2 - M a s t e r P l a n A m e n d m e n t ) mp •I Il [it r> ,.

Four special zone district categories are applied in the Central Point TOD districts. The characteris cs of these zoning districts are summarized in subsec ons A through D of this sec on. A. Residen al (TOD). 1. LMR--Low Mix Residen al. This is the lowest density residen al zone in the district. Single-family detached residences are intended to be the primary housing type; however, a;ached single-family and lower density mul family housing types are also allowed and encouraged. 2. MMR--Medium Mix Residen al. This medium density residen al zone focuses on higher density forms of residen al living. The range of housing types includes higher density single-family and a variety of mul family residences. Low impact commercial ac vi es may also be allowed. 3. HMR--High Mix Residen al/Commercial. This is the highest density residen al zone intended to be near the center of the TOD district. High density forms of mul family housing are encouraged along with complementary ground floor commercial uses. Low impact commercial ac vi es may also be allowed. Low density residen al uses are not permi;ed. The applicant has requested a minor Comprehensive Plan map amendment to redesignate the subject property from the current Employment Commercial designa9on to the High-Density designa9on. The requested High-Density designa9on allows for the High Mix Residen9al (HMR)(TOD) zoning district. The applicant has submi7ed a zone map amendment applica9on to amend the zone map for the subject property from the current Employment Commercial (EC) zoning district to the High Mixed Residen9al (HMR) (TOD) zoning district. As indicated in the CPMC, the HMR TOD zoning district is the highest density residen9al zone intended to be near the center of the TOD district. The subject property meets the loca9onal standards for the HMR TOD zone as the property is located on Twin Creeks Crossing, the entrance to the Twin Creeks TOD from Highway 99. This loca9on leads directly to the Code of the Twin Creeks TOD. 6.C.a Packet Pg. 96 At t a c h m e n t : M P - 2 3 0 0 1 _ A t t a c h m e n t s ( 1 6 9 2 : C e n t r a l P o i n t S t a t i o n , P h a s e 2 - M a s t e r P l a n A m e n d m e n t ) Page 8 of 17 The request to modify the Twin Creeks Master plan at the subject property from an Employment Commercial property to the HMR, High Density Mixed use is consistent with the loca9onal standards of the General Land Use Plan designa9on and the HMR zoning district. The modifica9on of the Master Plan to allow for a development to the standards of the HMR zone will allow for the development of a mul9family development with ground floor commercial uses for the Twin Creeks Crossing street frontage as prepared with the site plan applica9on consolidated with the Master plan amendment, zone map amendment and Comprehensive Plan Map amendment submi7ed by the applica9on. Conclusion of Law The Planning Commission can conclude the requested revision of the master plan is consistent with the objec9ves of the Twin Creeks Master Plan to provide high-density mixed-use development near the core of the TOD and the applica9on submi7ed by the applicant facilitate a development consistent with the code requirements for the TOD. ****************************************************************************** 6.C.a Packet Pg. 97 At t a c h m e n t : M P - 2 3 0 0 1 _ A t t a c h m e n t s ( 1 6 9 2 : C e n t r a l P o i n t S t a t i o n , P h a s e 2 - M a s t e r P l a n A m e n d m e n t ) Page 9 of 17 17.65.050 Zoning regula ons--TOD district.

This consolidated applica9on does not propose any revision to the public streets. The City is processing a vaca9on of the segment of Boulder Ridge south of Twin Creeks Crossing. 6.C.a Packet Pg. 103 At t a c h m e n t : M P - 2 3 0 0 1 _ A t t a c h m e n t s ( 1 6 9 2 : C e n t r a l P o i n t S t a t i o n , P h a s e 2 - M a s t e r P l a n A m e n d m e n t ) Page 15 of 17 Circula9on Plan Revision The proposed revision to the circula9on plan relocates the segment of the pedestrian plat adjacent to the subject property to improve public safety. The current path loca9on iden9fies the proposed path in a common area with a 10 foot drop off to an area that holds open water. The proposed loca9on relocates the path to the west side of the proposed development and extends the exis9ng terminus of the path from the property to the south to the public right of way and exis9ng crosswalk at Twin Creeks Crossing. 9. Public Off-Street Accessways. a. Pedestrian accessways and greenways should be provided as needed to supplement pedestrian routes along public streets. b. Major off-street pedestrian accessways shall incorporate all of the following design criteria: i. The applicable standards in the City of Central Point Department of Public Works Standard Specifica ons and Uniform Standard Details for Public Works Construc on, Sec on 300, Street Construc on; ii. Minimum ten-foot ver cal clearance; iii. Minimum twenty-foot horizontal barrier clearance for pathway; iv. Asphalt, concrete, gravel, or wood chip surface as approved by the city, with a compacted subgrade; v. Nonskid boardwalks if wetland construc on is necessary; and vi. Minimum one hundred square feet of trailhead area at intersec ons with other pedestrian improvements. A trail map sign shall be provided at this loca on. This consolidated applica9on seeks to revise the loca9on of the public off street accessway south of Twin Creeks Crossing. The current posi9on of this segment of the accessway is located on an open space area containing a regional stormwater facility, see figure 1 below. The accessway constructed in this loca9on would impact the stormwater facility and would create a significant safety hazard due to a steep 10 foot drop to open water of the storm facility. 6.C.a Packet Pg. 104 At t a c h m e n t : M P - 2 3 0 0 1 _ A t t a c h m e n t s ( 1 6 9 2 : C e n t r a l P o i n t S t a t i o n , P h a s e 2 - M a s t e r P l a n A m e n d m e n t ) Page 16 of 17 The revision proposed, figure 2 below, will extend the public accessway installed with the development of the adjacent Smith Crossing Phase 1. The proposed accessway will connect the current terminus to the Twin Creeks Crossing right of way and improve public safety. All standards indicated above can be met with the proposed loca9on of the Public Accessway and will provide improved public safety for pedestrians using the facility. Revision to the Land Use Plan The exis9ng Land Use Plan in the TCMP indicates the subject property is designated as Employment Commercial.

The property is located near the intersection of Twin Creeks Crossing and Boulder Ridge Street within the EC zoning district in the Transit Oriented Development (TOD) District. A master plan amendment is reviewed as a Type III application. Type III applications are reviewed in accordance with procedures provided in Section 17.05.400, which provides the basis for decisions upon standards and criteria in the development code and the comprehensive plan, when appropriate. Applicable Review Criteria for TOD master plans are set forth in Chapter 17.66, Application Review Process for the TOD District and Corridor and include: 1. CPMC 17.65.040 and 17.65.050 relating to the TOD District 2. CPMC 17.66.030 A(1)(b) and 17.66.030 B – Submittal Requirements 3. CPMC 17.67, Design Standards—TOD District and TOD Corridor; 4.

CPMC 17.65.050, Table 3, TOD District and Corridor Parking Standard, and CPMC 17.64, Off- Street Parking and Loading 6. CPMC 17.70, Historic Preservation Overlay PROJECT BACKGROUND The property is located along the south side of Twin Creeks Crossing at the intersection with Boulder Ridge Street. In this area, Twin Creeks Crossing is a divided street with a center median, limiting full- movement access at Boulder Ridge Street. This configuration is due to the close proximity with Rogue Valley Highway/Highway 99, multiple turning lanes at that intersection and higher traffic volumes. Boulder Ridge Street, abutting the west side of the property, extends less than 150-feet from the Twin Creeks Crossing right-of-way and does not connect to another public right-of-way, further limiting vehicle circulation and access to/from the subject property. 6.C.a Packet Pg. 107 At t a c h m e n t : M P - 2 3 0 0 1 _ A t t a c h m e n t s ( 1 6 9 2 : C e n t r a l P o i n t S t a t i o n , P h a s e 2 - M a s t e r P l a n A m e n d m e n t ) Page 2 of 18 Findings & Conclusions of Law File No.: MP-23001 The property was recently approved for a zone change to HMR. The HMR zone permits mixed use opportunities on the site, including vertical (mixed in same building) and horizontal (mixed use in adjacent buildings). The 1.62 acre project site is identified in the Twin Creeks Master Plan as a site to provide 1-2 stories of destination retail and professional office uses. As shown on the Vicinity Map (Figure 1), the property is bound by open space to the east, the Twin Creeks Crossing to the north and existing residential developments in the Medium Mix Residential (MMR) and HMR zoning districts, to the south and west respectively. The development to the south is under common ownership with the subject property. Despite common ownership, there are no access easements between the properties. The applicant proposes a 45-unit multifamily development with limited ground floor commercial uses along the Twin Creeks Crossing frontage. The proposed development is consistent with the existing development pattern in the area, connects to the existing streets and provides circulation through the existing development to the south. The application to amend the Twin Creeks Master Plan proposes to realign a residential walking path location shown in Exhibit 3 of the Twin Creeks Master Plan; and, revise the Land Use Plan (Exhibit 18), the Mixed Use Plan (Exhibit 36), and the Civic and Commercial Plan (Exhibit 37) to permit high-density residential development with limited ground floor commercial uses. Since Master Plan compliance is required for Site Plan and Architectural Review, the application for master plan amendment is accompanied by, and being processed concurrently with, an application for a Site Plan and Architectural Review (see File No. SPAR-23001) that reviews site and building design criteria for Design Standards in the TOD District and Corridor (CPMC 17.67). 6.C.a Packet Pg. 108 At t a c h m e n t : M P - 2 3 0 0 1 _ A t t a c h m e n t s ( 1 6 9 2 : C e n t r a l P o i n t S t a t i o n , P h a s e 2 - M a s t e r P l a n A m e n d m e n t ) Page 3 of 18 Findings & Conclusions of Law File No.: MP-23001 Figure 1.

The sections of CPMC 17.65 applicable to the application are: 17.65.040 Land Use – TOD District Four special zone district categories are applied in the Central Point TOD districts. The characteristics of these zoning districts are summarized in subsections A through D of this section. A. Residential (TOD). 1. LMR--Low Mix Residential. This is the lowest density residential zone in the district. Single-family detached residences are intended to be the primary housing type; however, attached single-family and lower density multifamily housing types are also allowed and encouraged. 2. MMR--Medium Mix Residential. This medium density residential zone focuses on higher density forms of residential living. The range of housing types includes higher density single-family and a variety of multifamily residences. Low impact commercial activities may also be allowed. 3. HMR--High Mix Residential/Commercial. This is the highest density residential zone intended to be near the center of the TOD district. High density forms of multifamily housing are encouraged along with complementary ground floor commercial uses. Low impact commercial activities may also be allowed. Low density residential uses are not permitted. B. Employment (TOD). 1. EC--Employment Commercial. Retail, service, and office uses are primarily intended for this district. Activities which are oriented and complementary to pedestrian travel and transit are encouraged. Development is expected to support pedestrian access and transit use. Automobile oriented activities are generally not included in the list of permitted uses. Residential uses above ground floor commercial uses are also consistent with the purpose of this zone. 2. GC--General Commercial. Commercial and industrial uses are primarily intended for this district. Activities which are oriented and complementary to pedestrian travel and transit are encouraged. Residential uses above ground floor commercial uses are also consistent with the purpose of this zone. C. C--Civic (TOD). Civic uses such as government offices, schools, and community centers are the primary uses intended in this district. These uses can play an important role in the vitality of the TOD district. 6.C.a Packet Pg. 112 At t a c h m e n t : M P - 2 3 0 0 1 _ A t t a c h m e n t s ( 1 6 9 2 : C e n t r a l P o i n t S t a t i o n , P h a s e 2 - M a s t e r P l a n A m e n d m e n t ) Page 7 of 18 Findings & Conclusions of Law File No.: MP-23001 D. OS--Open Space (TOD). Because the density of development will generally be higher than other areas in the region, providing open space and recreation opportunities for the residents and employees in the TOD district becomes very important. This zone is intended to provide a variety of outdoor and recreation amenities. Finding 17.65.040: The subject property was approved for a zone change to HMR. The HMR zone would allow mixed use opportunities on this site, including vertical (mixed use in the same building) and horizontal (mixed use in separate buildings on a site). Provided commercial uses in the horizontal mixed use are consistent with Exhibit 37 (Civic and Commercial Plan) of the Twin Creeks Master Plan, the proposed master plan amendments are consistent with the Twin Creeks Master Plan and the requirements of this section. Conclusion 17.65.040: Consistent. 17.65.050 Zoning Regulations – TOD District A. Permitted Uses. Permitted uses in Table 1 are shown with a “P.” These uses are allowed if they comply with the applicable provisions of this title. They are subject to the same application and review process as other permitted uses identified in this title. B. Limited Uses. Limited uses in Table 1 are shown with an “L.” These uses are allowed if they comply with the specific limitations described in this chapter and the applicable provisions of this title. They are subject to the same application and review process as other permitted uses identified in this title. C. Conditional Uses. Conditional uses in Table 1 are shown with a “C.” These uses are allowed if they comply with the applicable provisions of this title. They are subject to the same application and review process as other conditional uses identified in this title. Finding 17.65.050(A-C): The amendment to the Master Plan proposes multifamily residential dwellings and ground floor commercial uses for professional office and retail sales and service, including sales-oriented and personal service oriented businesses. In accordance with CPMC 17.65.050, Table 1, commercial uses are permitted as a limited use in the HMR zone when provided on the ground floor with multifamily dwellings above. There are no conditional uses proposed with the application. Conclusion 17.65.050(A-C): Consistent. D. Density. The allowable residential density and employment building floor area are specified in Table 2. E. Dimensional Standards. The dimensional standards for lot size, lot dimensions, building setbacks, and building height are specified in Table 2. Finding 17.65.050(D-E): The HMR zoning district requires a minimum density of 25 units/acre and no maximum density. The proposed development includes 45 units on 1.62 acres, or approximately 27 6.C.a Packet Pg. 113 At t a c h m e n t : M P - 2 3 0 0 1 _ A t t a c h m e n t s ( 1 6 9 2 : C e n t r a l P o i n t S t a t i o n , P h a s e 2 - M a s t e r P l a n A m e n d m e n t ) Page 8 of 18 Findings & Conclusions of Law File No.: MP-23001 units/acre.

The 1.62 acre site is located in the Twin Creeks Transit Oriented Development (TOD) Master Plan area within the High Mix Residential (HMR) zone. The site fronts Twin Creeks Crossing and is identified on the Jackson County Assessor’s map as 37S 2W 03CA Tax Lot 1500. Applicant: Milo Smith, Smith Crossing LLC Agent: Scott Sinner, Scott Sinner Consulting, Inc. Associated Files: CPA-23002, ZC-23002, MP-23001 Staff Source Justin Gindlesperger, Community Planner II Laura Stewart, Community Planner I Background The Twin Creeks TOD Master Plan (“Master Plan”) was approved on December 14, 2000. The Master Plan sets forth written and illustrated instructions for the development of 230 acres, including the mix of housing types, employment opportunities and multimodal transportation facilities, etc. At this time, the Applicant is proposing to develop a 1.71 acre tract of land (i.e. 1.62 acres plus 0.09 right-of-way to be vacated) with a mix of commercial and residential uses. The proposal is located on a site originally identified in the Master Plan as “Destination Retail and Professional Office.” In a concurrent application (MP-23001), the Applicant proposed amending the envisioned uses to include mixed-use and multifamily apartments. The purpose of the amendment is to retain the commercial use and add needed housing. This also takes advantage of the fact that the Applicant owns the adjoining multifamily development to the south. This provides a secondary access via private parking lot driveways between Smith Crossing and this application, which is known as Central Point Station 2. Project Description The proposal includes the construction of 3 buildings together with parking, landscaping and a public bicycle/pedestrian accessway (Attachment “A”). Building 1 provides ground floor commercial uses along Twin Creeks Crossing and Boulder Ridge Street frontage. Buildings 2 and 3 are multifamily buildings located interior to the site with frontage on the parking lot driveway and pedestrian walkways, including a minor pedestrian accessway open to the public along the west property boundary. The landscape plan provides street frontage, parking lot perimeter, and interior landscaping throughout the development. Architecturally, the proposed structures are similar in design and scale, three (3) story buildings featuring flat roofs with parapets, awnings and other design features (Attachment “B”). Per the Applicant’s Findings (Attachment “E”), the proposed development was designed to be compatible with the architecture of the surrounding developments. Building 1 is the most prominent structure with frontage along Twin Creeks Crossing and Boulder Ridge Street in the vicinity of the TOD core area. Buildings 2 and 3 are interior to the site, facing adjacent properties, with access along the pedestrian accessway and internal to the site. 6.D Packet Pg. 126 Issues There are 6 issues relative to this project: 1. Concurrent Applications. The Site Plan and Architectural Review is based on changes to the Land Use, Zoning, and Master Plan, to allow horizontal mixed-use, add multifamily housing to the site and relocate a minor pedestrian accessway. Denial of any of these applications will necessitate amendments to this application to comply with approval criteria and standards. Comment: Staff Recommends Condition No. 1, which specifies this application is subject to approval of each of the preceding concurrent applications. 2. Boulder Ridge Right-of-Way Vacation. There is a short section of Boulder Ridge Street that takes access on Twin Creeks Crossing and terminates without connecting to another public street. The proposed site plan shows six (6) parking stalls on this section of Boulder Ridge Street, which is not permitted. Due to existing development patterns, the Public Works Department has determined that there is no public interest in retaining this 140-ft/0.09 acre section of Boulder Ridge Street as right-of-way. Comment: Per the Public Works Staff Report dated May 15, 2022, (Attachment “F”), the City is supportive of the right-of-way vacation for Boulder Ridge Street and is requiring completion of the vacation prior to building permit issuance. Once this is completed, the vacated area will be part of the project site and the vehicle parking and maneuvering will be allowed subject to the design and development standards in CPMC 17.67. Staff is recommending approval of Condition No. (2)(a). 3. Site Access. The site has access at two (2) locations, the intersection of Boulder Ridge Street and Twin Creeks Crossing and on North Haskell Street through the existing Smith Crossing Phase I. The Applicant currently owns Smith Crossing Phase I; however, it will be necessary to provide a cross access easement to provide legal access across the sites in the event of future changes in ownership. Comment: Staff recommends Condition No. 2(c) requiring a cross access easement for the mutual benefit of the project site and Smith Crossing Phase 1. 4. Off-Street Pedestrian Accessway. a. Public Access. In accordance with the Master Plan Amendment (MP-23001) to the Circulation Plan (Master Plan Exhibit 3), there is a Minor Pedestrian Accessway that will extend from the southeast property boundary, along the west property boundary of the project site to Twin Creeks Crossing. The relocation is needed to avoid steep slopes associated with the Jackson Creek Overbank Floodway Mitigation channel. Comment: Per the Master Plan, the Minor Pedestrian Accessway is a public facility. Staff recommends Condition No. 2(b) requiring the applicant to provide a recorded copy of an access easement for the facility before building permits are 6.D Packet Pg. 127 issued. b. Design. The standard for Minor Pedestrian Accessway design is provided in Master Plan Exhibit 12. It requires a 5-ft path and 24-inches of landscaping on both sides of the path. The proposed site and landscape plans (Attachment “A” and “C”, respectively) illustrate the required path width with landscaping on the east side. Comment: There is an existing landscape strip on the adjoining property (i.e. Pear Valley Senior Living), which is 5-ft in width. This exceeds the minimum 24- inch standard and is recommended as adequate to buffer the pedestrian accessway. No further action is needed. 5. Street Trees. As shown on the Landscape Plan (Attachment “C”), street trees are proposed along the Twin Creeks Crossing frontage; however, the finished sidewalk does not include trees wells for installation. Comment: In accordance with the Public Works Staff Report dated May 15, 2022 (Attachment “F”), the Applicant will be required to retrofit the sidewalk to include street trees along this section of Twin Creeks Crossing. Public Works has stated that the cost is fully eligible for SDC credits. Staff recommends Condition No. 2(c) requiring the Applicant to retrofit the sidewalks and provide the trees in accordance with the Master Plan and Public Works requirements for street tree placement. 6. Parking Lot Landscaping and Screening. The site plan depicts six (6) surface area parking stalls in the current Boulder Ridge Street right-of-way (to be vacated) adjacent to Twin Creeks Crossing. Comment: In accordance with 17.67.050K)(2)(b), the Applicant will be required to add a five (5) foot planting strip as a landscape buffer between the Twin Creeks Crossing right- of-way and the six (6) surface area parking stalls on the project site. Findings of Fact & Conclusions of Law The Central Point Station Phase 2 Site Plan and Architectural Review has been evaluated against and found to comply with the applicable criteria for Site Plan and Architectural Review applications in the Transit Oriented Development District as evidenced by the Planning Department’s Supplemental Findings (Attachment “J”), which includes the Applicant’s Corrected Findings (Attachment “E”), application exhibits and agency comments.

The project site is on property identified on the Jackson County Assessor’s Map as 37S 2W 03CA, Tax Lot 1500. Concurrent with this applicaton is a request to amend the General Land Use Plan (GLUP) Map and Zone Map from Employment Commercial/EC to High Density Residential/High Mix Residential (HMR) (See File No. CPA23002 and ZC-23002, respectively). These findings are based on approval of the above applications, as well as amendments that were proposed to the Master Plan as part of MP- 23001. The purpose of the Master Plan amendments is to allow horizontal mixed use on the site as needed to permit two multifamily buidlings without ground floor commercial. During the Pre-Application Conference (PRE-22001), it was noted that Public Works was supportive of vacating Boulder Ridge Street adjacent to the project site. This determination refects the absence of opportunity and plans to extend the street south due to exsting development patterns. This application assumes the vacation will be completed as evidenced by parking stalls shown within the current right- of-way. This is addressed in recommended conditions of approval in the Public Works Staff Report dated May 15, 2023, which requires completion of the right-of-way vacation prior to building permit issuance (See Exhibit 8). Review Procedures The site plan and architectural review request is a Major Project, which is typically reviewed using Type II procedures per CPMC 17.05.300. Due to the scope and location of the project, during the Pre- Application Conference in February 2022, the Planning Director determined that this application is subject to Type III procedures per Central Point Municipal Code (CPMC) 17.05.300(B)(3)(a). The Type III procedures set forth in CPMC 17.05.400, provide the standard decision making procedures for the application. Applicable Criteria Approval of the Site Plan and Architectural Review application is subject to the following standards and criteria in the Central Point Municipal Code:  CPMC 17.65 - TOD Districts and Corridors for the HMR zone 6.D.a Packet Pg. 172 At t a c h m e n t : S P A R - 2 3 0 0 1 A t t a c h m e n t s ( 1 6 9 4 : C e n t r a l P o i n t S t a t i o n , P h a s e 2 - S i t e P l a n a n d A r c h i t e c t u r a l R e v i e w ) Attachment “J” – Planning Department Supplemental Findings Page 2 of 90 Findings & Conclusion of Law SPAR-23001  CPMC 17.66 - Application Review Procedures for the TOD District and Corridor  CPMC 17.67 - Design Standards -- TOD District and Corridor  CPMC 17.72 – Site Plan and Architectural Review The Findings will be presented in seven (7) parts as follows: 1.

The Master Plan governs land use and circulation within the Master Plan area. The proposed mixed-use development on the Project Site has been evaluated against the Master Plan and has been found to comply as conditioned as follows: Figure 2 – Master Plan Exhibit 3 Circulation Plan 6.D.a Packet Pg. 175 At t a c h m e n t : S P A R - 2 3 0 0 1 A t t a c h m e n t s ( 1 6 9 4 : C e n t r a l P o i n t S t a t i o n , P h a s e 2 - S i t e P l a n a n d A r c h i t e c t u r a l R e v i e w ) Attachment “J” – Planning Department Supplemental Findings Page 5 of 90 Findings & Conclusion of Law SPAR-23001 Finding: Master Plan Exhibit 3, Circulation: There are three aspects of the Circulation Plan that provide guidance and instruction relative to the proposed project, 1) Street Network, 2) Off-Street Pedestrian Accessway, and 3) Shared Access. These are addressed as follows: 1) Streets. Master Plan Exhibit 3 presents the required street network for the Twin Creeks Master Plan. The Twin Creeks Crossing and Boulder Ridge Street frontages, were constructed as part of Twin Creeks Crossing Phase I in 2006. There is an unused portion of Boulder Ridge Street that adjoins the northwest corner of the Project Site. Public Works, in the Staff Report dated May 15, 2023, is requiring and has agreed to initiate a right-of-way vacation application for Boulder Ridge Street, needed to provide six additional parking stalls (Figure 3). All infrastructure surrounding the site has been constructed in accordance with the Master Plan. 2) Off-Street Pedestrian Accessway The Master Plan identifies and an off-street pedestrian accessway along the east boundary of the project site (See Master Plan Exhibit 3). The off- street pedestrian accessway connects the site to Smith Crossing Phase 1 to the south, and Twin Creeks Crossing to the north. The proposed site plan relocates the accessway to the west property line consistent with the Master Plan Amendment application (See File No. MP-23001). The pedestrian accessway would have run adjacent to the stormwater drainage facility, consisting of steep slopes and year round standing water, constituting a possible public safety concern. It was determined in MP-23001, the relocation of the pedestrian accessway from the east side of the development to the western boundary of the development, adjacent to Pear Valley Senior Living, was consistent with the need to protect the public health, safety, and welfare. 3) Shared Access At the time the only public access to the site is via Boulder Ridge Street, which takes access from Twin Creeks Crossing (Figure 3). This access is shared with Pear Valley Senior Living. To the south there is an internal private access drive through Smith Crossing Phase 1, a multifamily development owned and operated by the Applicant for Central Point Station 2. The shared access is shown throughout the Master Plan, including but not limited to Exhibit 3, Circulation. Due to the ownership of Smith Crossing Phase 1 and the subject application, there is an opportunity and mutual benefit for shared access between Smith Crossing and Central Point Station 2. As conditioned, a cross access easement shall be required prior to building permit issuance between Smith Crossing Phase 1 and the Central Point Station 2 to assure legal access between the sites consistent with the Master Plan.

Finding CPMC 17.67.040(C): As evidenced in the findings and conclusions for CPMC 17.67.040(A), a pedestrian accessway will be constructed across the site that connects the adjacent existing development with an existing sidewalk and crossing at Twin Creeks Crossing and Boulder Ridge Street. Conclusion CPMC 17.67.040(C): Consistent. 17.67.050 Site Design Standards. The following standards and criteria shall be addressed in the master plan, land division, and/or site plan review process: A. Adjacent Off-Site Structures and Uses. 1. All off-site structures, including septic systems, drain fields, and domestic wells (within one hundred feet) shall be identified and addressed in the master plan, land division, or site plan process in a manner that preserves and enhances the livability and future development needs of off-site structures and uses consistent with the purpose of the TOD district and as necessary to improve the overall relationship of a development or an individual building to the surrounding context. 2. Specific infrastructure facilities identified on site in the master plan, land division, and/or site plan shall comply with the underground utility standards set forth in the City of Central Point Department of Public Works Standard Specifications and Uniform Standard Details for Public Works Construction, Section 400, Storm Water Sewer System and, more specifically, Section 420.10.02, Ground Water Control Plan, in order to safeguard the water resources of adjacent uses. Finding CPMC 17.67.050(A): There are no off-site structures servicing the subject property. The proposed development is an infill project on a vacant lot with public infrastructure installed as part of previous development in the area. Connections to the existing infrastructure will be in accordance with all applicable sections of the City of Central Point Department of Public Works Standard Specification and Uniform Standard Details for Public Works Construction. 6.D.a Packet Pg. 192 At t a c h m e n t : S P A R - 2 3 0 0 1 A t t a c h m e n t s ( 1 6 9 4 : C e n t r a l P o i n t S t a t i o n , P h a s e 2 - S i t e P l a n a n d A r c h i t e c t u r a l R e v i e w ) Attachment “J” – Planning Department Supplemental Findings Page 22 of 90 Findings & Conclusion of Law SPAR-23001 Conclusion CPMC 17.67.050(A): Consistent. B. Natural Features. 1. Buildings should be sited to preserve significant trees. 2. Buildings should be sited to avoid or lessen the impact of development on environmentally critical areas such as steep slopes, wetlands, and stream corridors. 3. Whenever possible, wetlands, groves and natural areas should be maintained as public preserves and as open space opportunities in neighborhoods. Finding CPMC 17.67.050(B): The Site is located within the Special flood Hazard Area (SFHA) for Griffin Creek. The Site Plan (Exhibit 1) identifies the location of the SFHA on the property and depicts the proposed structures outside the areas subject to flooding. Any future development within the SFHA will require a Floodplain Development Permit. Per staff site visits and aerial images, there are no rock outcroppings or woodland areas on the project site. Conclusion CPMC 17.67.050(B): Consistent. C. Topography. 1. Buildings and other site improvements should reflect, rather than obscure, natural topography. 2. Buildings and parking lots should be designed to fit into hillsides, for instance, reducing the need for grading and filling. 3. Where neighboring buildings have responded to similar topographic conditions on their sites in a consistent and positive way, similar treatment for the new structure should be considered. Finding CPMC 17.67.050(C): The Twin Creeks TOD Master Plan considered the relatively flat topography within the Master Plan area. The proposed building design proposes three-story structures within the maximum allowable building height and similar to the existing two and three story residential buildings in Smith Crossing Phase 1 to the south and Pear Valley Senior Living to the west. Conclusion CPMC 17.67.050(C): Consistent. D. Solar Orientation. 1. The building design, massing and orientation should enhance solar exposure for the project, taking advantage of the climate of Central Point for sun-tempered design. 2. Where possible, the main elevation should be facing within twenty-five degrees due south. 3. In residential developments, the location of rooms should be considered in view of solar exposure, e.g., primary living spaces should be oriented south but a west facing kitchen should be avoided as it may result in summer overheating. 4. Outdoor spaces should be strategically sited for solar access and the cooling summer winds. 6.D.a Packet Pg. 193 At t a c h m e n t : S P A R - 2 3 0 0 1 A t t a c h m e n t s ( 1 6 9 4 : C e n t r a l P o i n t S t a t i o n , P h a s e 2 - S i t e P l a n a n d A r c h i t e c t u r a l R e v i e w ) Attachment “J” – Planning Department Supplemental Findings Page 23 of 90 Findings & Conclusion of Law SPAR-23001 5. Shadow impacts, particularly in winter on adjacent buildings and outdoor spaces should be avoided. Finding CPMC 17.67.050(D): The proposal maximizes solar orientation to the greatest extent possible within the context of the existing street network and adjacent development patterns. Conclusion CPMC 17.67.050(D): Consistent. E. Existing Buildings on the Site. 1. Where a new building shares the site with an admirable existing building or is a major addition to such a building, the design of the new building should be compatible with the original. 2. New buildings proposed for existing neighborhoods with a well-defined and desirable character should be compatible with or complement the architectural character and siting pattern of neighboring buildings. Finding CPMC 17.67.050(E): The project site is currently undeveloped. As evidenced by the findings and conclusions set forth herein, the proposed structures satisfy the approval criteria for building design standards in the TOD District (See Part 5 Findings). Conclusion CPMC 17.67.050(E): Consistent. F. New Prominent Structures. Key public or civic buildings, such as community centers, churches, schools, libraries, post offices, and museums, should be placed in prominent locations, such as fronting on public squares or where pedestrian street vistas terminate, in order to serve as landmarks and to symbolically reinforce their importance. Finding CPMC 17.67.050(F): The proposed development does not include a key public or civic building. Conclusion CPMC 17.67.050(F): Not applicable. G. Views. The massing of individual buildings should be adjusted to preserve important views while benefiting new and existing occupants and surrounding neighborhoods. Finding CPMC 17.67.050(G): Views of Table Rock and Mt. McLoughlin were identified in the Twin Creeks TOD Master Plan. The proposed multi-use project is similar in height to the surrounding neighborhood and will not interrupt views enjoyed by Pear Valley Senior Living or neighborhood residents beyond what was planned to occur per the Twin Creeks TOD Master Plan. Conclusion CPMC 17.67.050(G): Consistent. H. Adjoining Uses and Adjacent Services. 1. When more intensive uses, such as neighborhood commercial or multifamily dwellings, are within or adjacent to existing single-family neighborhoods, care should be taken to minimize the impact of noise, lighting, and traffic on adjacent dwellings. Finding CPMC 17.67.050(H)(1): The proposed development is an infill project within the HMR zoning district and not within or adjacent to single-family neighborhoods.

Finding CPMC 17.67.050(H)(2): The subject property shares a common property boundary with Pear Valley Senior Living, which is the closest adjacent residents to the site. As shown on the Site Plan (Exhibit 1), the HVAC equipment servicing the units will be located away from this boundary and oriented towards property boundaries without adjacent development (open space) or with greater distance to other development (approximately 180-feet to Smith Crossing Phase 1). Conclusion CPMC 17.67.050(H)(2): Consistent. 3. All on-site service areas, loading zones and outdoor storage areas, waste storage, disposal facilities, transformer and utility vaults, and similar activities shall be located in an area not visible from a street or urban space. Finding CPMC 17.67.050(H)(3): As shown on the Site Plan (Exhibit 1), parking, loading and on- site service areas are located within the interior of the site and are screened by buildings and landscape areas. The waste storage and disposals facilities are located to the rear of Building 1 along the east property boundary, and will not be visible from a street or urban space. The abutting open space area to the east is not publicly accessible and is used to preserve floodplain areas and treat stormwater runoff. As evidenced in CPMC 17.67.040(A)(8-9), the minor pedestrian accessway will be realigned to the west further limiting public use of the open space. Conclusion CPMC 17.67.050(H)(3): Consistent. 4. Screening shall be provided for activities, areas and equipment that will create noise, such as loading and vehicle areas, air conditioning units, heat pumps, exhaust fans, and garbage compactors, to avoid disturbing adjacent residents. Finding CPMC 17.67.050(H)(4): The waste storage and disposal facilities will be screened by a trash enclosure that complies with the standards in CPMC 17.67.050(K)(4). On-site service areas are interior to the site and are screened by buildings and landscape areas. Conclusion CPMC 17.67.050(H)(4): Consistent. 5. Group mailboxes are limited to the number of houses on any given block of development. Only those boxes serving the units may be located on the block. Multiple units of mailboxes may be combined within a centrally located building of four walls that meets the design guidelines for materials, entrance, roof form, windows, etc. The structure must have lighting both inside and out. Finding CPMC 17.67.050(H)(5): As depicted on the Site Plan (Exhibit 1), a community mailbox is provided for the units within the development near the southwest corner of Building 1. Conclusion CPMC 17.67.050(H)(5): Consistent. I. Transitions in Density. 6.D.a Packet Pg. 195 At t a c h m e n t : S P A R - 2 3 0 0 1 A t t a c h m e n t s ( 1 6 9 4 : C e n t r a l P o i n t S t a t i o n , P h a s e 2 - S i t e P l a n a n d A r c h i t e c t u r a l R e v i e w ) Attachment “J” – Planning Department Supplemental Findings Page 25 of 90 Findings & Conclusion of Law SPAR-23001 1. Higher density, attached dwelling developments shall minimize impact on adjacent existing lower density, single-family dwelling neighborhoods by adjusting height, massing and materials and/or by providing adequate buffer strips with vegetative screens. 2. Adequate buffer strips with vegetative screens shall be placed to mitigate the impact of higher density development on adjacent lower density development. 3. New residential buildings within fifty feet of existing low density residential development shall be no higher than thirty-five feet and shall be limited to single-family detached or attached units, duplexes, triplexes or fourplexes. 4. New commercial buildings within fifty feet of existing low density residential development shall be no higher than forty-five feet. 5. Dwelling types in a TOD district or corridor shall be mixed to encourage interaction among people of varying backgrounds and income levels. 6. Zoning changes should occur midblock, not at the street centerline, to ensure that compatible building types face along streets and within neighborhoods. When dissimilar building types face each other across the street because the zoning change is at the street centerline or more infill housing is desired (for instance, duplexes across the street from single dwellings), design shall ensure similarity in massing, setback, and character. 7. Density should be increased incrementally, to buffer existing neighborhoods from incompatible building types or densities. Sequence density, generally, as follows: large lot single dwelling, small lot single dwelling, duplex, townhomes, courtyard multifamily apartments, large multifamily apartments, and mixed use buildings. Finding CPMC 17.67.050(I): The proposed development is adjacent to Pear Valley Senior Living to the west and zoned HMR; and, Smith Crossing Phase 1 to the south, which is zoned Medium Mix Residential. The project site is not located adjacent to any low density residential development or zoning.

Parks and open spaces shall be provided in the TOD districts and TOD corridors and shall be designed to accommodate a variety of activities ranging from active play to passive contemplation for all ages and accessibility. B. Parks and Open Space Location. C. Parks and Open Space Amount and Size. D. Parks and Open Space Design. Finding CPMC 17.67.060: The Parks and Open Space requirements were addressed as part of the Master Plan. No additional parks and open space is proposed as part of the current application. Conclusion CPMC 17.67.060: Not applicable. 17.67.070 Building Design Standards. A. General Design Requirements. 1. In recognition of the need to use natural resources carefully and with maximum benefit, the use of “sustainable design” practices is strongly encouraged. In consideration of the climate and ecology of the Central Point area, a variety of strategies can be used to effectively conserve energy and resources: a. Natural ventilation; b. Passive heating and cooling; c. Daylighting; d. Sun-shading devices for solar control; e. Water conservation; f. Appropriate use of building mass and materials; and, g. Careful integration of landscape and buildings. It is recommended that an accepted industry standard such as the U.S. Green Building Council’s LEEDTM program be used to identify the most effective strategies. (Information on the LEEDTM program can be obtained from the U.S. Green Building Council’s website,www.usgbc.org.) 2. All development along pedestrian routes shall be designed to encourage use by pedestrians by providing a safe, comfortable, and interesting walking environment. 3. Convenient, direct and identifiable building access shall be provided to guide pedestrians between pedestrian streets, accessways, transit facilities and adjacent buildings. 4. Adequate operable windows or roof-lights should be provided for ventilation and summer heat dissipation. Finding CPMC 17.67.070(A): The proposed Site Plan & Architectural Review provides a mixed use building with ground floor commercial along Twin Creeks Crossing Street frontage, as well as two (2) multifamily buildings interior to the site. As illustrated on the Site Plan (Exhibit 1), all 6.D.a Packet Pg. 205 At t a c h m e n t : S P A R - 2 3 0 0 1 A t t a c h m e n t s ( 1 6 9 4 : C e n t r a l P o i n t S t a t i o n , P h a s e 2 - S i t e P l a n a n d A r c h i t e c t u r a l R e v i e w ) Attachment “J” – Planning Department Supplemental Findings Page 35 of 90 Findings & Conclusion of Law SPAR-23001 buildings have frontage on and access pedestrian routes as needed to connect the building entries to the parking areas, common pedestrian accessways and the public sidewalk system. It’s important to note that the concurrent Master Plan Modification application (File No. MP- 23001) amends the Circulation Plan (Master Plan Exhibit 3). The amendment modifies the location of a pedestrian accessway from the eastern property boundary adjacent to the Jackson Creek Overbank flood mitigation channel and stormwater drainage facility, to a safer location along the western property boundary, as shown on the Site Plan (Exhibit 1). Conclusion CPMC 17.67.070(A): Consistent. B. Architectural Character. 1. General. a. The architectural characteristics of surrounding buildings, including historic buildings, should be considered, especially if a consistent pattern is already established by similar or complementary building articulation, building scale and proportions, setbacks, architectural style, roof forms, building details and fenestration patterns, or materials. In some cases, the existing context is not well defined, or may be undesirable. In such cases, a well-designed new project can establish a pattern or identity from which future development can take its cues. b. Certain buildings, because of their size, purpose or location, should be given prominence and distinct architectural character, reflective of their special function or position. Examples of these special buildings include theaters, hotels, cultural centers, and civic buildings. c. Attention should be paid to the following architectural elements: i. Building forms and massing; ii. Building height; iii. Rooflines and parapet features; iv. Special building features (e.g. towers, arcades, entries, canopies, signs and artwork); v. Window size, orientation and detailing; vi. Materials and color; and vii. The building’s relationship to the site, climate topography and surrounding buildings. 2. Commercial and High Mix Residential. a. Buildings shall be built to the sidewalk edge for a minimum of seventy-five percent of their site’s primary street frontage along collector and arterial streets in C, EC, GC, and HMR zones unless the use is primarily residential or the activity that constitutes the request for increased setback is intended to increase pedestrian activity, i.e., pedestrian plaza or outdoor seating area. b. Commercial structures and multi-dwellings should be sited and designed to provide a sensitive transition to adjacent lower density residential structures, with consideration for the scale, bulk, height, setback, and architectural character of adjacent single-family dwellings. c. In multi-dwelling structures, the plan layout, orientation and window treatment of the building design should not infringe upon the privacy of other adjacent dwellings. 6.D.a Packet Pg. 206 At t a c h m e n t : S P A R - 2 3 0 0 1 A t t a c h m e n t s ( 1 6 9 4 : C e n t r a l P o i n t S t a t i o n , P h a s e 2 - S i t e P l a n a n d A r c h i t e c t u r a l R e v i e w ) Attachment “J” – Planning Department Supplemental Findings Page 36 of 90 Findings & Conclusion of Law SPAR-23001 Finding CPMC 17.67.070(B): The architectural characteristics of Central Point Station Phase 2 are consistent with the surrounding buildings, building articulation, building scale and proportions, setbacks, architectural style, roof forms, building details and materials, and fenestration patterns. Conclusion CPMC 17.67.070(B): Consistent. C. Building Entries. 1. General. a. The orientation of building entries shall: i. Orient the primary entrance toward the street rather than the parking lot; ii. Connect the building’s main entrance to the sidewalk with a well-defined pedestrian walkway Finding CPMC 17.67.070(C)(1)(a): As shown on the site plan in Exhibit 1, entries to the commercial space are oriented toward the Twin Creeks Crossing and Boulder Ridge Street, and the entries to the residential units are oriented towards the parking lot Conclusion CPMC 17.67.070(C)(1): Consistent. b. Building facades over two hundred feet in length facing a street shall provide two or more public building entrances off the street. Finding CPMC 17.67.070(C)(1)(b): The Building Elevations (Staff Report Attachment 4) provide scaled drawings of the building at 1” = 3/16 scale. Based on the measurements, the buidling façade on Twin Creeks Crossing is 115-feet in length and provides two (2) building entries. The façade fronting Boulder Ridge is 56-feet and provides one building entrance. Conclusion CPMC 17.67.070(C)(1)(b): Not applicable. c. All entries fronting a pedestrian accessway shall be sheltered with a minimum four-foot overhang or shelter. Finding CPMC 17.67.070(C)(1)(c): There are three (3) pedestrian accessways on the site: 1) the public sidewalk along Twin Creeks Crossing; 2) the public sidwalk along Boulder Ridge; and 3) the Minor Pedestrian Accessway along the west property boundary (See File No. MP-23001). As shown on the Building Elevations (Exhibit 2-4), there are 8-ft metal canopies provided over the building entries facing Twin Creeks Crossing and Boulder Ridge on Building 1. Buildings 2 and 3 include residential units with frontage along the Minor Pedestrian Accessway. However, there are no building entries proposed for Building 2 with frontage on the Pedestrian Accessway. Building 3 primary building entries are via an internal corridor. Secondary building entries are via patio doors onto covered patios. The patio overhang is 4-ft as shown on the West Building Elevation for Building 3 (Exhibit 4).

An exception to any part of the requirements of this section shall be allowed upon finding that: i. The slope of the land between the building and the pedestrian street is greater than 1:12 for more than twenty feet and that a more accessible pedestrian route to the building is available from a different side of the building; or ii. The access is to a courtyard or clustered development and identified pedestrian accessways are provided through a parking lot to directly connect the building complex to the most appropriate major pedestrian route(s). Finding CPMC 17.67.070(C)(1)(d): The proposed land development does not request or necessitate an exception to these standards. Conclusion CPMC 17.67.070(C)(1)(d): Not applicable. 2. Commercial and High Mix Residential. a. For nonresidential buildings, or nonresidential portions of mixed-use buildings, main building entrances fronting on pedestrian streets shall remain open during normal business hours for that building. b. Nonresidential and mixed-use buildings fronting a pedestrian street shall have at least one main building entrance oriented to the pedestrian street. i. Such an entrance shall not require a pedestrian to first pass through a garage, parking lot, or loading area to gain access to the entrance off or along the pedestrian street, but the entrance may be through a porch, breezeway, arcade, antechamber, portico, outdoor plaza, or similar architectural feature. ii. If a building has frontage on more than one street, the building shall provide a main building entrance oriented to at least one of the streets, or a single entrance at the street intersection. iii. A building may have more than one main building entrance oriented to a street, and may have other entrances facing off-street parking and loading areas. Finding CPMC 17.67.070(C)(2): As shown on the Site Plan (Exhibit 1), the mixed-use building (i.e. Building 1) is the only building with frontage on a pedestrian street. Per the Findings for CPMC 17.67.070(C)(1), the building entrances comply with this section with regard to both the number of entrances and their orientation. Conclusion CPMC 17.67.070(C)(2): Consistent. 3. Residential. a. The main entrance of each primary structure should face the street the site fronts on, except on corner lots, where the main entrance may face either of the streets or be oriented to the corner. For attached dwellings, duplexes, and multi-dwellings that have more than one main entrance, only one main 6.D.a Packet Pg. 208 At t a c h m e n t : S P A R - 2 3 0 0 1 A t t a c h m e n t s ( 1 6 9 4 : C e n t r a l P o i n t S t a t i o n , P h a s e 2 - S i t e P l a n a n d A r c h i t e c t u r a l R e v i e w ) Attachment “J” – Planning Department Supplemental Findings Page 38 of 90 Findings & Conclusion of Law SPAR-23001 entrance needs to meet this guideline. Entrances that face a shared landscaped courtyard are exempt. b. Residential buildings fronting on a street shall have an entrance to the building opening on to the street. i. Single-family detached, attached and row house/townhouse residential units fronting on a pedestrian street shall have separate entries to each dwelling unit directly from the street. ii. Ground floor and upper story dwelling units in a multifamily building fronting a street may share one or more building entries accessible directly from the street, and shall not be accessed through a side yard except for an accessory unit to a single-family detached dwelling. c. The main entrances to houses and buildings should be prominent, interesting, and pedestrian-accessible. A porch should be provided to shelter the main entrance and create a transition from outdoor to indoor space. d. Generally, single-dwelling porches should be at least eight feet wide and five feet deep and covered by a roof supported by columns or brackets. If the main entrance is to more than one dwelling unit, the covered area provided by the porch should be at least twelve feet wide and five feet deep. e. If the front porch projects out from the building, it should have a roof pitch which matches the roof pitch of the house. If the porch roof is a deck or balcony, it may be flat. f. Building elevation changes are encouraged to make a more prominent entrance. The maximum elevation for the entrance should not be more than one-half story in height, or six feet from grade, whichever is less. g. The front entrance of a multi-dwelling complex should get architectural emphasis, to create both interest and ease for visual identification. Finding CPMC 17.67.070(C)(3): As shown on the Site Plan (Exhibit 1), building entries for each unit are accessible from the public street and the parking lot with exterior stairs to the upper story dwelling units. Conclusion CPMC 17.67.070(C)(3): Consistent. D. Building Facades. 1. General. a. All building frontages greater than forty feet in length shall break any flat, monolithic facade by including discernible architectural elements such as, but not limited to: bay windows, recessed entrances and windows, display windows, cornices, bases, pilasters, columns or other architectural details or articulation combined with changes in materials, so as to provide visual interest and a sense of division, in addition to creating community character and pedestrian scale. The overall design shall recognize that the simple relief provided by window cutouts or sills on an otherwise flat facade, in and of itself, does not meet the requirements of this subsection. 6.D.a Packet Pg. 209 At t a c h m e n t : S P A R - 2 3 0 0 1 A t t a c h m e n t s ( 1 6 9 4 : C e n t r a l P o i n t S t a t i o n , P h a s e 2 - S i t e P l a n a n d A r c h i t e c t u r a l R e v i e w ) Attachment “J” – Planning Department Supplemental Findings Page 39 of 90 Findings & Conclusion of Law SPAR-23001 Finding CPMC 17.67.070(D)(1)(a): Buildings 1, 2 and 3 are 113-ft, 130-ft and 109, ft in length, respectively. As shown on the Building Elevations (Exhibits 2- 4), each of the buildings is articulated with recessed entrances, changes in materials, columns and variation in roof parapet heights to break up the length and to add dimension and features needed to break up the façade. Conclusion CPMC 17.67.070(D)(1)(a): Consistent. b. Building designs that result in a street frontage with a uniform and monotonous design style, roofline or facade treatment should be avoided. Finding CPMC 17.67.070(D)(1)(b): As demonstrated in Exhibits 2-4 and Finding 16.67.070(D)(1)(a), the proposed building design doesn’t result in a uniform and monotonous design style or façade treatment. Conclusion CPMC 17.67.070(D)(1)(b): Consistent. c. Architectural detailing, such as but not limited to, trellis, long overhangs, deep inset windows, should be incorporated to provide sun-shading from the summer sun. Finding CPMC 17.67.070(D)(1)(c):Although this is a guideline denoted by “should,” the proposal includes metal canopies to provide shading and shelter over building entries. Conclusion CPMC 17.67.070(D)(1)(c): Consistent. d. To balance horizontal features on longer facades, vertical building elements shall be emphasized. Finding CPMC 17.67.070(D)(1)(d):. As demonstrated on the Building Elevations (Exhibits 2-4) and Finding 17.67.070(D)(1)(a), the longer facades of the building elevations emphasize vertical elements through changes in color and material, columns and roof heights at the horizontal articulations and recessed entrances in order to balance to the vertical building elements with the horizontal features. Conclusion CPMC 17.67.070(D)(1)(d): Consistent. e. The dominant feature of any building frontage that is visible from a pedestrian street or public open space shall be the habitable area with its accompanying windows and doors. Parking lots, garages, and solid wall facades (e.g., warehouses) shall not dominate a pedestrian street frontage. Finding CPMC 17.67.070(D)(1)(e): The proposed building frontage for Building 1 (Exhibit 2) is along Twin Creeks Crossing. Buildings 2 and 3 are interior to the site and do not front on a pedestrian street. In all cases, however, the dominant feature of all buiildings are window areas that are 22% to over 50% of the ground floor façade area.
