DISCUSSION (METRO PLAN AMENDMENT FILE NO. LRP 2009-00014)
ACTION REQUESTED:
Continue discussing the Springfield 2030 Plan, potential UGB expansion areas and

ISSUE STATEMENT: This is the third in a series of Council Work Sessions to discuss options for growth to meet the City’s commercial and industrial land needs. The City Council’s 2030 Plan
UGB proposal and the final UGB may include land within the five study areas or other lands identified through the 2030 Plan process, consistent with the prioritization requirements of ORS 197.298 and the Oregon Land Use Goal 14 Administrative Rule.

DISCUSSION/ FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The Council is in the process of reviewing new information and identifying additional information to be provided by staff to inform the City’s UGB expansion and 2030 plan policy proposals.
At the April 28th work session the Council received information to compare the
probable costs of providing urban levels of service to the five study areas and directed
staff to provide more information to inform Council’s discussion, including but not limited to: CIBL/EOA policy choices; location and size of redevelopment areas in the
existing UGB; feasibility and cost of phasing service extensions to expansion areas or
portions thereof; and economic development considerations.
At the May 5th work session the Council reviewed the Results of Stakeholder Outreach
and continued their discussion.
Staff is conducting additional analysis as requested. Not all of that information will
be ready for distribution in advance of tonight’s work session. Accordingly, staff will schedule an additional work session on May 27, and will provide the additional
information requested in advance of that session, so that Council will have an opportunity to review it. If convenient, Council may then continue a conversation among the members of the Council to reach a consensus on what parcels the Council
wishes to include in a proposed expansion. Staff will be available to provide any technical information Council may need to facilitate that discussion. Staff encourages Council to request any additional information that may be helpful.
