Background
ATTACHHENT A
FINDINGS OF FACT
This proposal ~ould partition Tax Lot 800, Assessor's Map 17-02-19-30, into three
parcels. Parcel 1, ~ould be approximately 1.4 acres; Parcel 2, would be
approximately 1.6 acres; Parcel 3, ~ould be approximately 9.4 acres. Access for
Parcels 1, 2 and 3 ~ould be through a 50 foot-~ide double panhandle ~ith a joint/use
access and maintenanc~agreement. The panhandle ~ould later be converted to public
right-of-~ay' upon subdivision9f the remainder of the property after annexation to
the Ci ty of Springfield., The property is vacant. The property is zoned LDR Lo~
Density Residential; the,M~tro Plan designation is Lo~ Density Residential. The
property is not in any refinement plan.
The proposal was submitted on June 23, 1989.
The proposal was accepted by staff on June 30, 1989.
On June 30, 1989, adjacent owner/occupants ~ere sent notice of this Type II
application.
On July 11, 1989, the Development Review Committee (DRC) reviewed this request.
On July 13, 1989, the DRC held a public meeting to discuss this proposal ~ith the
applicants and adjacent noticed property owner/occupants.

Protection of the drainageway, dedication of right-of-way for North '31st
Street (concerns about street ~idening), the Future Development Plan
(~hether it should be sent ~ith the public notice*) and annexation to the
City (when), and the status of the 50 foot-wide double panhandle driveway
(whether it should.be dedicated as public right-of-way to Lane County).
The issues raised"needed further study. A second public meeting "'as
suggested. *Staff -~ill discuss this issue during the next review of
Departmental policies.

Issues:
1. Dedication of right-of-~ay on North 31st Street. Lane County received
a copy of this application and has requested the City to ask for an
additional 10 feet of public right-of-~ay so that this property can
line up ~ith properties to the north ~hich have already dedicated the
proper amount of right-of-~ay. The only property, that ~ill be
dedicating right-of-~ay ~ill be the McElhaney property., No other
properties are required to dedicate right-of-~ay at this time. This
portion of North 31st Street does not appear on the TransPlan (a
document ~hich lists street improvement projects for the metropolitan
area). There is no street improvement project planned for the
immediate future.
2. The drainage~ay. Staff ~as concerned that the drainage~ay ~as a
potential ~etland. John Marshall of the Division of State Lands ~as
asked to do an on-site evaluation of the drainage~ay. He stated that
the drainage~ay ~as not a ~etland. Ho~ever, staff agrees ~ith the
neighbors that the drainage~ay must be protected. Therefore, a deed
restriction ~ill be made a condition of approval of this application
stating that no alteration, excavation or fill shall be allo~ed ~ithin
the drainageway itself ~hich ~ould impede the carrying capacity of the
drainagewaYi no development shall occur within 10 feet of the
drainagewaYi and that the existing trees along the drainage~ay shall
not be"cut ~ithout permission from the City. This document needs to be
revie~ed by the City Attorney. '
3. The panhandle drive~ay. City staff originally asked that the panhandle
driveway be dedicated to Lane County as public right-of-~ay. The
County did not ~ant to accept responsibility for this right-of-way.
Therefore, a joint use/access agreement with language stating upon
further development of this property (after annexation) all parties
will agree to dedicate the panhandle to the City as public
right-of-way.
4. Annexation and septic approval. A number of years ago there ~as a
moratorium on septic approvals in north Spryngfield and the River Road
area. The north Springfield area ~as found to be able to support
septic tanks based upon the limited amount of development that is
permitted in the Urban Growth Area. Septic app~oval for this property
is required as a condition of approval for this application. Island
annexations are typically utilized ~hen a health hazard exists.
Currently, there are no plans by the City to annex this area. If and
~hen se~ers are extended to serve properties ~hich are island
annexations, properties ~hich are still in the County ~ill not be
permitted to hook up to the se~er until they are annexed. The
properties ~ould be assessed prior to hooking up to se~er.

(l) THE REQUEST AS CONDITIONED FULLY CONFORMS VITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF THIS
CODE AND THE ~!~O PLAN, ESPECIALLY REGARDING 1~ EFFICIENT USE OF URBAN
AND URBANIZABLE LAND, THE EFFICIENT PROVISION OF PUBLIC FACILITIES AND
SERVICES, AND CONSIDERATION OF NATURAL FEATURES IDENTIFIED IN HETRO PLAN
INVENTORIES.
The zoning of the property and ~he Metro Plan designation are both Low
Density Residential; thus the zoning is consistent vith the Metro Plan
designation.
There are no identified Metro Plan inventoried natural features on this
property. Hovever, the National ~etlands Inventory Map shovs the
drainageway on the property. John Marshall of the Oregon Division of State
Lands was contacted concerning this issue. Mr. Marshall made a site visit
and tested the east end of the drainageway. Mr. Matshall's lette~ st~tes:
11 there are no wetlands in the area I visited on the McElhaney sitel1.
The existing drainageway will be protected by a deed restriction stating
that no alteration, excavation or fill shall be allowed within the
drainageway itself, whi ch would 'impede the carrying capaci ty of the
drainageway; no development shall occur within 10 feet of the drainageway;
and that the existing trees along the drainageway shall not be cut without
permission from the City. This document needs to be revieved by the City
Attorney.
This request will conform with the requirements of the Springfield
Development Code when all conditions necessary for Final Approval have been
met.
(2) THE FUTURE USE FOR URBAN PURPOSES OF THE REMAINDER OF THE PROPERTY UNDER
THE SAKE OVNERSHIP SHALL NOT BE IMPEDED.
Parcels 1, 2 or 3 cannot be further divided until they are annexed to the
City. The 50 foot-vide double panhandle viII allov for future division.
This panhandle viII be required to have a joint use/access agreement and
vording to provide for the future dedication of right-of-way to the City.
A Future Development Plan will be utilized in conjunction vith any current
development of Parcels 1, 2 or 3 (one house is permitted on each parcel
until annexation and subdivision). This Plan will prevent the blocking-of
proposed str~ets and vill protect future lots.
The future use for urban purposes of the remaining parcel under the same
ownership vill not be impeded.
