Re: Public Comment About Normal Neighborhood Plan Adoption
Date: May 5, 2014
Thank you for your consideration in this matter. We are concerned about the restriction the
adoption of the Normal Avenue Plan will place on future uses of the lot behind GracePoint
Church. We have two major concerns that were not addressed during our participation in the
planning hearings.
First, the plan designates the W-9 wetland, as adopted by local and state agencies, based on an
estimate of this region rather than an actual delineation by species and groundwater survey of the
property. The actual wetland area may be larger or, as we see it after seven years of mowing and
maintaining, is significantly smaller than current estimates. In the case of the wetland being larger
than current estimates, the area available for development will be smaller and our use will be
limited. However, in the event that the required delineation results in a smaller area of wetland,
there seems no remedy in the current plan for a reduction of the Open Space designation to allow
us to use the space available for development. In speaking with the Ashland Community
Development Department it was confirmed the W-9 open space size would not change even if a
wetland delineation survey showed it to be smaller.
It seems that there is some attempted amelioration of this by density transfer from open space to
the rest of our property, this allowing a maximum of 64 dwelling units on the entire property. This
is atradeoff but is only usable to us if we make unacceptable changes to the property by placing
residential dwellings on our front field and in our parking lot. It does not allow us to make up for
that loss to the South of the church in our field.. From a five- to ten-year timeline, we have a
property that really cannot be used. From a longer-term planning viewpoint this may be a
reasonable planning concept, except I must remind this commission that this Nazarene Church
was started in Ashland in 1905 (109 years ago) so we do plan with a longterm viewpoint.
A combination of two possible solutions exists. The first is allowing the decrease or increase in the
conservation area based on future accurate wetland delineation. Secondly, increasing the density
allocation from NN-02 (10 units per acre) to NN-03 (15 units per acre) on the only usable space to
the South of the church. This would leave the current NN-02 designation for the rest of the
church's property. We request you adopt both.
This is the third time we have presented these concerns during this process. We have never
received a specific response and feel that the planning process is pushing the "open space" agenda
as a politically correct move at our expense. If we have no substantive response to our concerns
we will consider this adoption a "public taking" and will consider taking legal action to reclaim
our lost usable space.

Public Comment About Normal Neighborhood Plan Adoption

Shifting the focus now to the matter of two transportation corridors traversing this area. I am told,
by staff, that an alley or multi-use path is required by code adjacent to open spaces. This means
that in addition to a 50-foot swath through this property for the road, another 25 feet will be taken
by the proposed alley. This is in addition to the required 50-foot buffer zone around
wetlands. That raises the public taking for transportation corridors to about 75 feet and 125 feet if
you consider the buffer zone. This seems exorbitant from our viewpoint. Our request as a solution
is to move the current road as far to the south as allowable; within 50 feet of the W-9 open space.
This would eliminate the coded need for another transportation corridor. Again we have
presented this concern at the planning meeting and received no consideration or change in the
plan.
Where in this code and planning action is there a use for this property? There feels like a public
straightjacket to most reasonable uses of this property.

1. Elements I disagree about: The density is too high for this locality. Increased densities should
be positioned toward downtown where older non-historical structures can be redeveloped with
higher density. There are more services and better transport options downtown.
2. Elements of the plan I support. I appreciate the integrated response from the City of Ashland
and a willingness to work through the planning process with the community and stakeholders.
Preservation and where possible, the enhancement of the natural stream/pond features is
important as this is upstream of Bear Creek and the Rogue River.
3. Overall impression of plan. Good.

367 Normal Avenue
Ashland
We have recently moved to Ashland into the beautiful and peaceful Normal Avenue area that is
now part of the Normal Neighborhood Plan. We do not want the Normal Avenue neighborhood
to become a busy, congested area of high-density housing.
We have attended the planning commission meetings, and have read letters submitted by
concerned citizens on the Open City Hall forum. Thus far, however, we have not heard definitive
answers to many of the questions and issues raised, such as:
Growth projections: Has the city done growth projections? Have the projections been reviewed
and confirmed by an independent state agency? Is high-density housing really needed at all?
And, if so, why wouldn't the city want such housing closer to the main part of town, where
walking, biking, and public transportation are more available.
Better alternatives: Building housing in the Normal Avenue area would be very costly in terms
of infrastructure (water, sewer, roads, railroad crossing, etc.). Who would pay for those costs?
And, if such building is needed, are there other areas already in the city limits that would be less
costly to develop?
Unpopularity of the plan: The vast majority of people speaking at the city planning meetings and
writing letters on the forum are against the Normal Neighborhood Plan. The only group in favor
of the plan appears to be developers, and some don't even live in Ashland. Why would the city
approve a plan that is overwhelming unpopular?
Wetland areas: Currently, there are several wetlands in the Normal Avenue acreage. The
proposed plan allows for streets and housing to be build adjacent to and even over these natural
features, which will undoubtedly affect the wild life and possibly the wetlands themselves. Will
the city get approval from the appropriate state environmental agency before approving the
proposed plan?
Water: The city already has a water problem, which is now magnified given the current drought
situation. Why make is worse? Is the city prepared to develop more water resources BEFORE
building more housing?
Traffic congestion: The proposed plan includes high-density housing near E. Main Street. This
street is already very busy during peak periods (early morning and late afternoon). Is the city
prepared to widen and modify E. Main Street BEFORE increasing population density?
Normal Plan Public Comments Letters received between 4/29 and 51612014 5
A final question: What kind of city do we really want? We moved to Ashland because it is a
wonderful place to live. It is a charming small town that is not congested and yet offers
wonderful culture (theatre, food, art) that is all very accessible. Increasing population density
could jeopardize all that, and possibly even have a negative effect on tourism.
We hope the city council will carefully address all of the above issues BEFORE considering
approval of the plan. Specifically, we ask that city officials:
- Verify that Ashland needs more housing
- Look at less costly alternatives
- Consider the unpopularity of the proposed plan
- Get state approval for building adjacent to and over wetland areas
- Develop/secure more water resources
- Determine how to handle increased traffic congestion
- Look at the big picture - What kind of city do we really want?
Sincerely,
Tod Brannan and Paula Fox

I grew up on lower Normal Ave and graduated from Ashland High School. At the time the
Normal Avenue was rural and open. Gradually expensive homes were built in the area and it
became more congested. A private paved road was put in. All of this "change" happened even if
the original owners didn't want it. It seems to me the area will be better served by a thoughtful,
well-designed plan. Ashland is a wonderful town. I would love to move back here some day and
raise a family, but it seems it's getting more and more exclusive. People like me who grew up
there can no longer afford to live there: We've had two elementary schools close and the numbers
at the high school have been dropping over the years. I would hope this plan would enable more
young families to live in our town and go to our great schools and experience the wonderful
community like I did. I was blessed to have grown up in the area, and I only wish the same for
my kids.

Greetings everyone, especially Brandon,
Years ago part of my land at 340 Normal was designated "wetlands." My understanding is that the
designation was made by a study of photos and not after scientific process on the land. The
proposed plan also shows wetlands with proposed planning according to the unscientific process of
yo re.
When the time for development comes, the area demarked as wetlands will be subject to scientific
review, if it does not meet current standards to be named a wetlands, I expect the City of Ashland
to be willing to alter the dwelling density plan as it relates to my property and in keeping with the
overall neighborhood design. That would be a fair result and in keeping with the high standards
the City of Ashland sets for itself and generally abides by. And if I may say so, I have been
impressed by the Normal Avenue planning process:
Sincerely

Dear Ashland City Council Members,
I live at 237 Clay Street and would be one of the city residents adversely affected by yet another big block
of high-density housing in this section of town already containing more high-density housing than most.
If the Normal Street plan must go ahead, PLEASE do not let the third story be "slipped in" (after it was
taken out) before the vote. Please do not cave to one developer. Your constituents are Ashland residents
who live and work here every day and who vote for you, not one (almost certainly non-local) developer.
This new development, even limited to two stories, is not only going to take away beautiful fields which
add immensely to Ashland's beauty not to mention habitat for local wildlife, including the Barn Owls
that hunt over these fields in the evening but it's going to impact this end of town tremendously in terms
of traffic, noise, and all the usual effects of over-congestion.
Again, I urge you to give MORE WEIGHT to the wishes of city residents who actually live in this area
already than to a developer who will come and go. Many of us chose to live in this area of town precisely
because it had pockets of quiet beauty... the fields. They are worth their weight in gold and are a big part
of what makes Ashland so appealing. If we are going to keep giving them up to more and more housing,
let's at least minimize the effects of hundreds of more people and cars, not to mention the aesthetic effect
of more wall-to-wall housing.
Please don't choose the fleeting effects of developer money over the long-term well-being of city
residents who already have more high density housing in their midst than most Ashlanders. For every
person you hear from, there are many more of us who care and who whose quality of life would be
compromised by the packed-in feeling of more and more people on all sides. For many of us, the
expansive views and the beauty and serenity of nearby fields are a huge part of what living in Ashland is
all about.
Don't let Ashland become just another "every place else." Allowing more and more huge, high-density
projects to go ahead, and to get away with transgressing the normal standards for height is exactly the
kind of step that takes us all further away from the town we love and closer to some crowded, traffic-
choked suburbia we don't want to be.
Please vote for the higher, greater good and not just for expediency or letting another developer get
his/her/their way. They do not have to live here.
Sincerely,
Anya Neher

RE: Normal Neighborhood Plan
I support the Planning Commission recommendation concerning the timing of transportation
improvements related with the future development of the plan area. In order to address current and
future transportation along East Main Street and the public rail road crossing at Normal.
I agree the south side of E Main Street from Walker Ave to Clay should be fully improved to City Street
Standards priorto development within the plan area. And the public rail road crossing be installed and a
financing plan be developed prior to annexation and development within the plan area.
Addressing these two transportation matters before development and annexation will be vital to
support the additional traffic the development will bring to the area.
Thank you,
Susan Wallace

I spent many hours attending meetings of the Planning Commission in regards to the

communities' concerns until the last meeting in which the Chair said that since
Developers need more leeway in their design plans, the agreed upon 2 and half story

Subject : Written public testimony: Normal Neighborhood Plan
To : brandon goldman <brandon.gold man@ashland.or.us>
Dear Mr. Goldman,
Thank you for inviting public comments regarding the Normal
Neighborhood Plan. I would like to submit the following comment for
the City Council meeting on May 6th.
As a homeowner in the Ashland Meadows subdivision off lower Clay Street
-and directly adjacent to the Normal Avenue development area-I would
like to add my voice to those of my many neighbors who oppose aspects
of the plan.
My main concern is the multi-dwelling high-density (NN-03) area that
keeps appearing on the plan on the parcel now owned by the Baptist
church (Rogue Valley Church). I am continually perplexed that this
high-density development keeps appearing on the plan-sometimes a two-
story complex, sometimes three, sometimes to the east or west-despite
the fact that every time, the neighbors on nearby parcels loudly
oppose this part of the development. I would like the high-density
part of this plan to be reduced to multi-dwelling low-density (NN-02)
zoning for four primary reasons:
1) Lower Clay Street, only a block from the projected apartment
complex, has already borne the brunt of high-density housing in
Ashland. We already have the (mostly rented and financially shaky)
condo complex on McCall Avenue, the large apartment complex on Villard
Street, and the eight-unit complex on Dollarhide that went in about a
year ago. Lower Clay Street has done its bit for Ashland's high-
density housing and is beginning to feel like a dumping ground for
these complexes.
2) East Main is already congested and dangerous during school drop-off
and pick-up times and on Growers' Market days, and no plan seems to be
in place to pay for the needed improvements to it when hundreds of
households are added. At every planning commission meeting I've
attended, new and conflicting information is presented about how the
cost may be distributed among East Main homeowners.
3) The two creeks on either side of the parcel and their associated
wetlands are a sensitive and ever-changing habitat for birds and
animal sNcgUnnMic(4TftaOls and Lrgker gfved"ttng2p#ndFYT2@111 to the neighborhd?)d's
quiet, semi-rural beauty: Adding so many households will undoubtedly
impact this sensitive natural area; no amount of planning can prevent
that.
4) I find it very disturbing that this high-density complex keeps
coming up only because the current landowner and a potential developer
want to do it. This looks to me like short-term cash for somebody and
long-term consequences for the neighborhood. NN-02 zoning, such as
they type that already exists in Meadowbrook Park Estates, Ashland
Meadows, and Chautauqua Trace, has already proven fairly harmonious to
Ashland's character and needs and would be a much better choice.
Thank you for your attention.

Re: Normal Neighborhood Plan Framework Document
Dear Councilors,
As our representatives on City Council we are asking you to rewrite this huge development
proposal. We feel it is out of step with the charming city we have been involved with for the past
20 years. The density of this plan would negatively impact all of those presently living in the
area. The density of the area would destroy open space aesthetics for every Ashland resident and
visitor. Once we remove open, breathable space it is gone forever. Look at all the cities that have
blight because they did not take city aesthetics into consideration. Please remain sensitive to our
environment. Keep Ashland breathable and beautiful! What about the impact on West Main? The
traffic would increase going to and from the development, much of it on West Main. Who would
pay for the necessary improvements of this through street to enable additional traffic? It would
seem that his improvement would have to be done prior to any construction taking place. Thank
you for your consideration of these concerns.

Hello City Council Members
The report from ODSL was completed in 2003 (11 years ago) adopted by Ashland in 2007.
In any case, the report is not valid at this point because DSL Wetland Reports are valid for five
years.
These reports were general observations as well and not scientific reports according to the
Wetlands Specialist that I hired.
I am unclear why significant decisions are being based on such informal, invalid reports (2003).
Basically, when this was brought to the Planning Commission, instead of calling it a Wetlands Area,
it has been rephrased as a Conservation Area, taking the land for city purposes, in full disregard of
my rights as a Property Owner.
In Ashland, I have a right to delineate a Wetland, if it exists, and these rights have been taken away
from me and the other Land Owners.
I am with the belief that this action is illegal because I am being treated differently than other
Ashland Land Owners.
In my case, more than 50% is going to Conservation Area.
A Wetland Expert from Eugene, who works with the DSL very closely, did his testing and
inspections on my land about two weeks ago,
and concluded that this area (my lot) is NOT Wetland.
I keep on hearing that the area used to be a Wetland, yet it remains the case that the area is
currently not Wetland area,
nor over the past few years has the area been considered Wetlands.
When checking for Wetland, the soil is tested down to 12 inches and examined for composition.
The resLAts„ fPthis,&od.UrAWg does lamleraller,~ieb od~&aam6o€,years, even if the years are15
considered dry years.
The soil tests show no signs of being a Wetland, to date.
I want to remind everyone that the Co-Op in the past had been a Wetland Area.
For the record, one of the reasons why my lot was thought to be Wetland is due to the standing
water from the illegal (without any permission)
of dumping storm drain water from 30+ homes and accompanying streets of the adjacent Home
Development: Meadow Brook Park Estates.
Due to this major oversight by the City of Ashland, my land is now in question for both Wetland
and/or Conservation Allotment.
As an owner, I am clearly perplexed.
Thank You,
Gil Livni

City of Ashland MAY 0 6 2014
City Council Members - 5/6/14 Meeting Public Comments
RE: Normal Neighborhood Plan Concerns:
As a resident of the Normal Ave. neighborhood, I have the following concerns:
1. According to the 2011 City of Ashland Buildable Lands Inventory, it shows a lack of need, outside the City
Limits, in the next 20 years for developable land. I would hope at least most of this report is accurate.
However, if there is still a certain housing zone type which may be lacking in the available city lands, then I
would hope this need would be fulfilled with a lower density of housing, & not only limited to this NNP
section of the UGB. How is the need for housing zones calculated?
a. Especially with the City News Release on May 1st describing this year's drought conditions, how
can the City Council and Commissioners approve a plan to add 450 more homes to Ashland when
water curtailment will be started due to the "amount of water consumed by Ashland water users
exceeds the amount of water flowing into the City's Reeder Reservoir?"
2. The congestion issues which would be created by the 450 new homes in the NNP not only, will have a
massive influence onto E. Main Street traffic at the proposed new intersections, but also an increase in traffic
all the way along E. Main to downtown. Traffic Commissioner Craig Anderson said that "the Transportation
Analysis done for the City showed the impact and traffic volumes were grossly understated in favor of the
developers." Even with the underestimated traffic impact of 450 new homes, this scale of development will
necessitate upgrading E. Main, between Clay and Walker Streets, from County to urban standards - as is
recommended by the Planning Commission. In addition, wouldn't the City also need to modify the full length
of E. Main? Testimony was given to the Planning Commission, by a resident of the Mill Pond area, as to how
difficult it is NOW to make a left turn onto E. Main St. when the traffic load increases with just Tuesday
Market patrons. Who will pay for these millions of dollars of required road improvements created by
this development? Developer SDC's are slated to pay for internal infrastructures within the development
and an undisclosed portion of the improvements to E. Main Street. Will the nearby residents be hit with an
LID to subsidize the unpaid portion of improvements needed because of the development's congestion, or
will the entire City residential tax base be liable for these improvements? Is it really necessary to expand
the "apparent" need for housing inventory all into one dense section of the UGB? Wouldn't these traffic
issues be alleviated by spreading out the "apparent needed housing" to the available lands inside the City
Limits and spread throughout the UGB?
3. 1 have the same concerns regarding the private RR Crossing at the south end of the NNP. Again, will a portion
of that estimated $4-5 million dollar "improvement" to upgrade it to a Public Crossing be shouldered by
our tax paving citizens for use by the development's new residents? If, indeed, the stated design for the
NNP is to have connectivity for the new residents and discourage CUT-Through traffic between major
arterials, then why aren't these costs to be fully assumed by the developers? An example of this lack of
planning and lack of financial foresight is already seen in the development west of N. Mountain Avenue
across from Mountain Meadows. Who is slated, now that the construction is done, to pay, for their
connectivity to Oak St. for the $6-8 million dollar bridge across Ashland Creek?
4. Another concern I have is 2-fold regarding the open space areas within the NNP:
a. The Planning Comm. has said the land owner will be compensated for open spaces not available
for development, by allowing L5 density increases on their remaining lands. This logic totally
negates the original intent of the NNP to maintain the existing neighborhood character of Single
Family Residences - or "like next to like". And, with the last minute Planning Comm. modification
of the increased allowable building height (to "give the developers a little more flexibility in
design"), the real possibility exists that a 40'tall building will back up to a single story SFR, thereby
destroying the existing neighborhood character. It will allow for a piecemeal design of dissimilar
structures which, as I understood, was the whole purpose of the NNP - to have a cohesive
plan that doesn't end up with haphazard incongruities.
b. What happens if the landowner doesn't want their land to be zoned as open space? If they are
successful in mitigating or re-delineating a smaller outline of their natural feature, how will the
NNP compensate ITS design to provide the indicated GREEN/OPEN Space all these new homes
will need? Is the City willing to purchase open space/natural habitats from these landowners in
order to preserve them and benefit the whole neighborhood/city? Shouldn't the City follow the
examples of their investments like "A" Street RR Park and the open space park on Westwood and
Strawberry?
Thank you for listening and taking your time to consider these very important issues.
Sincerely,
Sue DeMarinis, suedem@charter.net

From: Debbie Miller
Re: Normal Avenue Plan
The proposal before you tonight is very complex, complicated and controversial.
would hope that you take time to consider all the aspects of this plan, its impact to the
residents of the area and of the city as a whole, both financially and aesthetically. This
paper contains the concerns I will not have time to present in oral testimony. I hope
that you will take this and other submissions with you, study them in the next few
weeks and return ready to ask the questions that must be answered before a project of
this size is approved.
I urge the Council to consider this a two-step process; if the plan is approved, then a
request for annexation is sure to follow immediately, as at least three groups of
speculators have purchased over 30 acres and wanted to build three years ago. A need
for annexation can not be proved, so the application would necessarily, hopefully, need
to be denied. According to the 2011 Buildable Lands Inventory,
inside the present city limits about 1,883 dwelling units are possible.
The present (for past 10 years) growth rate is .79% annually, the average
household in town is 2.03 persons,
so about 1,604 DU will be needed in the next 20 years to accommodate that
growth.
The city potentially has least 275 more DU than projected to be needed in the next
c 20 years.
Some argument has been made that the present R-2 and R-3 zoned land is not
adequate for the projected needs. I am not certain that the potential for accessory units,
for additional housing in E-1 zones and other means of providing multi family housing
within the city limits has been explored.
Traditionally, towns have a dense 'urban core' and more open space toward the
perimeter of the city limits. Please consider the visual impact of a least 450 houses at
this edge of town, some 40 feet in height (taller than the new building under construction
on Lithia Way near the Post Office). A plan that allows homes with yards to grow on the
good soil and does not impose such a large city feel to this area would be a better use
of this valuable resource.
The Physical and Environmental Constraints Chapter of the Land Use Code, the
Performance Standard Options and the Water Resources Protection plan adopted a few
years ago address the need to limit alteration of topography, reduce encroachment into
and alteration of natural features, consideration of soil types and wildlife habitat, and not
allowing roads through open space, certainly not in wetland areas. The maps before
you show roadways over wetlands, a total loss of any opportunities for urban agriculture
and community gardens. Additionally, the designated wetlands, recognized by the City
and State, have been damaged already by the contractors-live trees with green leaves
were cut down, the waterway filled with material to try to prevent the flow-vigilance and
constant oversight would be needed to see that these ordinances are respected and
obeyed. Again, I mention this now because of the immediacy of annexation
applications should the Council pass this plan without serious modifications.
The residents along the north side of East Main have been forgotten, I fear. Already
they are suffering from well water problems due to the construction of the Meadowbrook
subdivision and other housing complexes along Clay Street. They will be left with
undue traffic, further loss of water, and the inevitable clashes between urban and rural
uses.
How many more cars will proceed south on Clay Street to Ashland Street and turn left
before the state closes off that option? Can anyone imagine the turmoil and danger if
all drivers needing to go to BiMart had to make a U-turn at Faith? The traffic impacts to
Clay, East Main and Normal Avenue south of the tracks simply have not been
addressed.
More issues will be presented tonight; again, I ask you to weigh the costs and benefits
of this massive proposal, surely one of the largest in the city. In comparison, Quiet
Village, not including the Billings homes, has about 280 houses, perhaps up to 300 if
other smaller neighborhoods are counted; Oak Knoll holds around 210. So, this would
be a major addition to the city, to be considered carefully for its impacts to the city for
the foreseeable future.
Thank you for your time and efforts.

Comments for May 6 City Council on Normal Development Plan
From : Alissa Lukara <alukara@gmail.com> Tue, May 06, 2014 04:07 PM
Subject : Comments for May 6 City Council on Normal
Development Plan
To : brandon goldman
<brandon.gold man@ashIand.or.us>
I would like to submit the following comment for the City Council meeting on May 6th.
My husband and I have owned a home at 248 Meadow Drive near the Creek Street part of the Normal
Neighborhood Plan since 2001 and are both registered voters in Ashland.
I am writing to express concern about the Normal Neighborhood Plan and recent amendments made by
the Planning Commission concerning the First Baptist Church property, and how they impact our existing
neighborhood and wildlife/natural areas. My main concerns echo those expressed by many of my
neighbors in Ashland Meadows and Meadowbrook Estates communities. The plan as presented appears
to take far greater consideration of the developer's needs than those of those of us in the communities
who will be living with the impact of the plans as they now exist. We are not saying `ho development,"
but we are asking for responsible, well planned development.
1. Most notably, I am against allowing 3-story buildings in the new development and am asking
that density be limited to 2 '/2 stories, just Eke the rest of Ashland's residential areas are limited to 2 '/2
stories. Why the planning commission would make a last minute exception to that residential rule
baffles me. I understand that the planning commission wants to provide developers, who do not live in
and vote in our community, greater site and building design flexibility. We were shocked to see the
change there.
Our neighborhoods have had a wonderful, rural feel, which I and others here value, and we have
beautiful views, which are already going to be impacted negatively by the development. As a
homeowner, I wonder why our neighborhood now also has to bear the full responsibility of added
higher density neighborhoods that are part of Ashland's planned urban growth.
2. I also have other concerns. It appears that not enough thoughtful planning has gone into
concerns such as sewage, water and other utilities. It is my understanding that the Creek Street 8"
sewer line is already over-burdened by the existing residences in Meadowbrook Estates, in some
instances causing backups in multiple residences when one residence has an issue.
3. Better thought and funding considerations need to be made to address additional traffic on E.
Main, Creek, Clay and other streets that the new units and automobiles will bring. E. Main is already
more congested. This needs to be handled now, in tandem with the development of residences, not
later.
I am asking that this plan be sent back to the planning commission to better address all these concerns.
Sincerely,
Alissa Lukara

Ashland, OR 97520

City Council Members,
My wife and I moved to Ashland 8 years ago. We met at Mount Ashland, married at Trinity Episcopal
Church, and now have three wonderful young children, ages 6, 4, and 2. We own a house in town at 750
N Laurel Street, which we rent out, and currently live at 1700 East Main Street, just outside of the city
limits, in the proposed Normal Avenue Neighborhood Development area. Our property lies on 1.16
acres adjacent to the Ashland Middle School and across the bus turn around street near Grace Point
Church.
My family and I absolutely want to remain zoned in Jackson County. We do NOT want to be annexed
into the City of Ashland. I believe this development plan is haphazardly put together and fails to
adequately address the concerns of the community. My comments will explain many of the reasons
why.
Under Housing and Land Use portion of the plan there's a neighborhood street for the project going
through what is deemed a "locally significant" wetland, W9. These should be preserved for water
filtration and wildlife habitat. In fact, in September of 2013 1 observed two juvenile salmon, one a coho,
in the irrigation ditch on the north side of my property. Water from that wetland south-southeast of my
property, W9, flows into this ditch. Those salmon likely originated from this somewhere nearby in the
water system.
Additionally, the existing road is used by the Middle School as a bus turn-around area, parking during
sporting events for both Ashlanders and family and friends of visiting schools, and by both Grace Point
Church and Temple Emek Shalom. Current traffic volume is so high already during certain times of
certain days that adding additional traffic would certainly result in increased congestion likely resulting
in the need for a traffic light. Adding a traffic light would increase road noise, pollution to air and water
(there is both a stream and a TID line on the north side of our property that ends up in Bear Creek), and
slow traffic movement on East Main Street. Additionally, we fear that a traffic light would make it more
difficult to get in and out of our driveway that exits to East Main Street and would almost certainly lower
the value of our property.
Instead, we would like to see the nearby wetlands expanded, not reduced in size. As our climate
continues to change, the need for wetlands for filtering water and to buffer us from flash flooding due
t
to increased rainfall rates will increase. During dry times, these wetlands can buffer us from drought by
serving as water and moisture storage for us and wildlife. Therefore, we believe that there should be a
wildlife corridor established and preserved from these wetlands to Bear Creek, and see ourselves as part
of that.
Thus, we wish to be excluded from the Normal Avenue project and ask that no road beyond what
already exists be established through the locally significant wetlands and along the east edge of our
property. Rather than develop our land, we want to use it for local food production, green space, as a
wildlife corridor, and for renewable energy production.
Thanks for your time and understanding.
Sincerely,
I

TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM
DATE: May 5, 2014
TO: Martin Schott, Schott and Associates
FROM: David DeKrey, Fisheries Biologist
SUBJECT: Cemetery Creek fish presence/absence survey
1 INTRODUCTION
Stillwater Sciences was contracted to conduct a survey of fish presence in Cemetery Creek on
the northern border of Ashland, Jackson County, Oregon.
1.1 Methods
Stillwater utilized the Oregon Department of Forestry's (ODF) Surveying Forest Streams for Fish
Use protocol (http://www.oregon.gov/odf/privateforests/docs/fishpresncsurveyprotocol.pdf).
Protocol requirements include the following:
A survey intended to show the absence offish must sample at least 50
yards ofstream distance and a minimum ofsix pools, each at least 1 foot
deep, immediately upstream of the point at which fish use is believed to
end In addition, any beaver ponds upstream must be sampled as part of
the survey
The protocol further requires that the survey be conducted between March 1 and May 31 in
western Oregon streams.
Following the survey, a report must be filed that includes the fish presence survey form, and a
map indicating the following:
• The area of the stream surveyed highlighted in yellow
• The upper limit offish use, unless no fish use was found throughout the survey
area.
• The name of the surveyor and the date of survey
Stillwater Sciences obtained an Oregon Scientific Collector's permit (permit number 18789) from
ODFW, which authorized electrofishing in Cemetery Creek.
The survey was conducted on April 28, 2014 by David DeKrey of Stillwater Sciences accompanied
by Jodi Reed of Schott and Associates. The entire length of Cemetery Creek through the Mahar
l
Technical Memorandum Fish Presence/Absence Survey, Cemetery Creek
Homes property (625 linear feet) was surveyed with a Smith-Root LR24 backpack
electroshocker.
1.2 Results
In the two weeks prior to the site visit Ashland had received just over one inch of rain, with rain
on eight of 14 days (http://weather.sou.edu/). Figure 1 depicts the surveyed reach. GPS points
were collected at all photo locations and potential fish barriers. Photos are attached in
Appendix A.
The survey began at the mouth of Cemetery Creek (Figure 1 and Appendix A) and continued
upstream. No potential partial or complete barriers were encountered between the mouth and
an access road at 42.19596, -122.68250. Three culverts were present beneath the access road,
two concrete and one steel, all approximately 16-inches in diameter (see photo in Appendix A).
One culvert conveyed nearly all of the flow, and was perched above the stream bed
approximately four inches on the downstream end. There was no pool habitat on the
downstream end. Given the discharge rate observed at the time of the site visit, low flows
through the culvert and the downstream gap between the water surface elevation and the
mouth of the culvert created a likely barrier to any small fish that may have been present
downstream. There was a ford for a pasture road/livestock trail at 42.19572, -122.68257;
between that point and East Main Street, the elevation rose steeply, and the creek was brush-
choked. This area of stream was not surveyed.
A 30-inch steel culvert conveyed Cemetery Creek under East Main. The culvert was perched six
inches above a downstream pool. The pool was formed by a sandbag dam constructed by the
landowner. Only a very small amount of water flowed through/around the dam and down the
stream channel. The rest of the water was diverted west to a secondary sandbag dam, and a
point of diversion consisting of a 55-gallon drum with a screened opening, sunk in the pool
formed by the secondary dam. The drum was connected by irrigation pipe to a pump several
hundred feet to the west. Water flowing past the secondary dam spread out across a sloping
meadow before dropping at least 20 feet down a sheer bank to the creek bed (see Figure 1).
The natural creek bed just downstream of East Main was also very steep. The percent slope
measured over 14% grade (40 feet elevation gain over approximately 274 linear feet) based on
Jackson County mapping, (http://web.jacksoncounty.org/pdo/), and likely poses a natural
barrier to fish passage. The combination of the culvert beneath east main, the diversion dams,
and the naturally steep topography create a barrier to fish passage above East Main Street.
Surveyors did not have access to the property between East Main Street and the downstream
end of the surveyed reach. oOnly two pools over one foot deep were present. No fish were
observed during the electrofishing effort. Three crawdads were collected/observed. The water
was clear and cool (500 F), and the pools present had good cover, with woody debris and some
undercut banks. If the stream was fish bearing, the entire length would likely have contained
fish, and the two pools almost certainly would have. Based on the observed barrier to upstream
passage at East Main Street, the suitability of the habitat and the lack of fish in the surveyed
reach, we conclude that Cemetery Creek at the Mahar Homes property is not fish bearing.
