Hi Erik,
Responding to Scot's mention of Portland's 1%estimate of middle housing
build rate on teardown sites,I referenced the R2 zone in the City of Lake
Oswego as actual data we can examine and make inferences from.This is a
zone where the developer could make a choice between building single
family or converting the lot to a duplex/townhome.And as this was prior
to SB458,they developer had to go through the time consuming and cost
incurring process of actually splitting the lot.Not so going forward.And
yet you see the choice to develop middle housing was the consistent choice
the developer made.Not my opinion. Simply factual observation.
Scot and I had a good exchange on this topic following Tucker's
presentation to PC earlier this year and I have attached the map Scot
compiled that illustrates the pattern of redevelopment in that zone over
recent years.It can serve as an interesting case study for our MHCAC.
There is one error on the map that needs to be corrected,and I believe it
is also necessary to update the letter designations on the map.
To the map correction-on the east corner of D and 3rd it shows one S and
two'2016'dates.The dates are correct,but the illustration is incorrect
as is the designation.It should show two attached townhouses.In fact
this is Tucker's project in the R2 zone.I know it well.We had a DRC
appeal on it.
To the update that I believe is necessary-when this map was compiled,
Scot appropriately used the current delineation in LO code to distinguish
between the housing types,S,D and T.Under what we now know to be the
new HB2001/SB458 rules,those designations will not continue into our new
code in the same manner.Whereas S will not change,and the 4 and 5 T's in
a row will not substantively change as a use,the 2 side by side T
designation on this map would,I think,now be more correctly represented
as simply D.This will allow the MHCAC to understand the redevelopment
picture as we now know it to be defined going forward.
Lake Oswego is not Portland.This case study presents us with a real
opportunity for this committee to understand the reality of HB2001/SB458
code in Lake Oswego and we should plan with the best data we have to work
from.Thanks for working to present useful material to the MHCAC.I am
well acquainted with this focus item and would encourage us to work
collaboratively in preparation of the material that would be put before
the group.
Thanks,
Carole
