DECISION: Preliminary Survey Approval as of the date of this letter. The standards of the Springfield
Development Code (SDC) applicable to each criterion of Property Line Adjustment Approval are listed herein
and are satisfied by the submitted plans and notes unless specifically noted with findings and conditions
necessary for compliance. THE FINAL SURVEY SUBMITTAL MUST CONFORM TO THE SUBMITTED
PLANS AS CONDITIONED HEREIN. This is a limited land use decision made according to City code and
state statutes, and there is no provision for appeal pursuant to SDC 5.1-125.C. Please read this document
carefully.
OTHER USES AUTHORIZED BY THE DECISION: None. The proposed Property Line Adjustment as
approved is in accordance with SDC 5.16-100. Future development will be in accordance with the provisions of
the SDC,filed easements and agreements,and all applicable local,state and federal regulations.
REVIEW PROCESS: This application is reviewed under Type I procedures listed in SDC 5.1-125 and the
property line adjustment criteria of approval, SDC 5.16-125. A complete application was accepted by the
Director prior to the review of the request as specified in SDC 5.4-105,Application Submittal,and contained all
information required to begin the review process in accordance with SDC 5.16-100. This application was
accepted as complete on May 7, 2013.
SITE INFORMATION: The affected parcels are within Assessor's Map 18-02-03-00,portion of Tax Lot 600.
A portion of Parcel 1 is inside the City limits, but the balance of Parcel 1 and all of Parcel 2 is outside the City
limits within the Springfield Urban Growth Boundary (UGB). The parcels are vacant and zoned Low Density
Residential (LDR) in accordance with the Springfield Zoning Map. The parcels proposed for property line
adjustment do not have frontage on a public street. The applicant is proposing to adjust the common property
line between Parcel 1 and 2 in order to be coterminous with the existing City limits line.
As a result of the proposed property line adjustment, Parcel 1 decreases in size from 42.4 acres to 27.7 acres;
and Parcel 2 increases in size from 13.8 acres to 28.5 acres. Therefore, the net area affected by the proposed
property line adjustment is approximately 14.7 acres. Because there is no increase to the number of legal lots
before or after the proposed property line adjustment, and the adjustment does not reconfigure a subdivision
boundary line, the proposal does not constitute a Replat. A property line adjustment may occur within a
recorded subdivision in accordance with SDC 5.16-100.
CRITERIA OF PROPERTY LINE ADJUSTMENT APPROVAL:
SDC 5.16-125 states that the Director shall approve or approve with conditions a Property Line Adjustment
application upon determining that criteria A through F of this Section have been satisfied.
A. The property line adjustment shall not create a new lot or parceL
Finding 1: The property line adjustment does not create a new lot or parcel. The proposed property line
adjustment is intended to modify the common boundary between two adjoining parcels and there is no net
increase or decrease in the number of affected legal parcels.
Conclusion: This proposal satisfies Criterion A.
B. The property line adjustment shall not create a landlocked lot or parcel.
Finding 2: The subject parcels are undeveloped and vacant with frontage on a private road(Weyerhaeuser
Road). The applicant is retaining an existing easement across the Weyerhaeuser Road to afford legal and
physical access to the subject parcels. At such time as future urban development of the properties occurs,
access to the subject area will require extension of public streets.
Conclusion: This proposal satisfies Criterion B.
2
. .
C. The property line adjustment shall not reduce an existing lot or parcel below the minimum lot size
standard or reduce setbacks below the minimum established by the applicable zoning districts in the
Code.
Finding 3: In accordance with SDC 3.2-215,the minimum size for LDR parcels inside the City limits is
5,000 ft2 with at least 60 feet of frontage on a north-south street.
Finding 4: In accordance with SDC 3.2-215, the minimum size for LDR parcels in the Urbanizable
Fringe Overlay District(UF-10) is either 5 acres or 10 acres, unless a partition is approved.
Finding 5: Currently, Parcel 1 is 42.4 acres and lies partially within the City limits. The current
configuration of Parcel 1 provides about 1,709 feet of frontage on Weyerhaeuser Road. Upon property
line adjustment, Parcel 1 would be 27.7 acres and entirely within the City limits. The reconfigured
Parcel 1 would have about 1,311 feet of frontage on Weyerhaeuser Road. With the proposed property
line adjustment, Parcel 1 would remain a conforming LDR parcel in accordance with the requirements
of SDC 3.2-215.
Finding 6: Currently, Parcel 2 is 13.8 acres and lies outside the City limits, but inside the Urban Growth
Boundary (UGB). The current configuration of Parcel 2 provides about 995 feet of frontage on
Weyerhaeuser Road. Upon property line adjustment, Parcel 2 would be 28.5 acres and have about 1,393
feet of frontage on Weyerhaeuser Road. The proposed dimensions and area of Parcel 2 meets the
requirements of SDC 3.2-215 for parcels in the OF-10 District.
Conclusion: This proposal satisfies Criterion C.
D. The property line adjustment shall not violate any previous conditions the Approval Authority
may have imposed on the lots or parcels involved in the application.
Finding 7: The parcels proposed for property line adjustment are subject to existing easements for
public utilities. No changes are proposed to the utility easements affecting Parcels 1 and 2.
Finding 8: There are no active land use approvals for the subject parcels, therefore the proposal should
not violate any conditions of approval imposed on the properties.
Conclusion: This proposal satisfies Criterion D.
E. The property line adjustment shall not detrimentally alter the availability of existing public and/or
private utilities to each lot or parcel in the application or to abutting lots or parcels.
Finding 9: The subject parcels contain existing utility lines within linear easements. The proposed
property line adjustment should not affect the availability of utilities to serve the parcels. At such time as
urban development occurs on the parcels,public utilities will be extended to serve the subject properties.
Finding 10: According to the applicant's submittal, there is a pumphouse in the Weyerhaeuser Road
alignment,just outside the southwest edge of Parcel 1. The pumphouse serves an existing settlement pond
on Parcel 1. Because the two features are functionally connected, an easement across the Weyerhaeuser
Road to benefit Parcel 1 will need to be provided. The existing easement covering the Weyerhaeuser
Road corridor(Document#2009-021549, Lane County Deeds& Records) is not sufficient because it was
intended "for road purposes" and does not provide for public or private utilities not already contained in
easements.

Condition of Approval:
1. Prior to or concurrent with recording of the Final Survey, a suitable Utility Easement
benefiting Parcel l and accommodating the settlement pond pumphouse and piping within the
Weyerhaeuser Road shall be recorded and evidence thereof provided to the City.
Conclusion: As conditioned herein,this proposal satisfies Criterion E.
F. The property line adjustment shall not increase the degree of non-conformity of each lot, parcel or
structure that is non-conforming at the time of application.
Finding 11: The existing and proposed parcels are considered conforming at the time of application.
Therefore, the proposed property line adjustment does not increase any degree of non-conformity for the
parcels.
Conclusion: This proposal satisfies Criterion F.
CONCLUSION: Considering these findings of fact, staff finds the Property Line Adjustment complies with
the criteria of SDC 5.16-125 and approves the application subject to the condition listed below.
CONDITION OF APPROVAL:
1. Prior to or concurrent with recording of the Final Survey, a suitable Utility Easement benefiting
