ITEM TITLE: ANNEXATION OF TERRITORY TO THE CITY OF SPRINGFIELD – ANNEX 1.77 ACRES OF PROPERTY LOCATED NORTH OF JESSICA DRIVE AND EAST OF SOUTH 66TH
PLACE, SPRINGFIELD.
ACTION REQUESTED:
Conduct a second reading and adopt/not adopt the following ordinance: AN ORDINANCE APPROVING THE ANNEXATION OF CERTAIN TERRITORY TO THE
CITY OF SPRINGFIELD, AND WILLAMALANE PARK AND RECREATION DISTRICT;
AND WITHDRAWING THE SAME TERRITORY FROM THE WILLAKENZIE RURAL FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICT (SECOND READING).
ISSUE STATEMENT:
A request for annexation to the City of Springfield has been received from the Springfield Utility
Board for an existing water utility installation in southeast Springfield. The subject property is
located just east of the intersection of South 66th Place and Jessica Drive on the eastern edge of the Mountaingate neighborhood. The approximately 1.77-acre territory requested for annexation
is inside the City’s Urban Growth Boundary (UGB) and is contiguous with the City limits. The
City Council gave first reading to the Annexation Ordinance at the public hearing meeting on October 5, 2015.

Exhibit A: Map and Legal Description
Exhibit B: Application Attachment 4: Annexation Agreement
DISCUSSION/ FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The City Council is authorized by ORS Chapter 222 and SDC Article 5.7-100 to act on
annexation requests. In accordance with SDC 5.7-155 and ORS 222.040, 222.180 and 222.465, if approved the annexation will become effective 30 days after signature by the Mayor or upon acknowledgement by the State – whichever date is later.
The subject property is contiguous with the existing City limits on all sides and contains an
existing water reservoir tank within a fenced enclosure. The territory requested for annexation is a single tax lot with an assessed value of $6,798. Staff advises that extension of existing public
streets and utilities will be required to serve the site and unincorporated areas to the southeast of the subject site in the future, and therefore an annexation agreement has been prepared for this request. Upon annexation, the territory would be subject to the City’s development review and
permitting process for future water system upgrades and modifications.
The territory requested for annexation is zoned Low Density Residential with an Urbanizable
Fringe Overlay (UF-10) in accordance with the Springfield Zoning Map. Upon annexation, the
UF-10 overlay will be removed. This category of public utility facility is a listed use in the LDR zone.
As outlined in the attached staff report (Attachment 1), the annexation area can be served with
the minimum level of key urban facilities and services as required in the Eugene-Springfield Metropolitan Area General Plan.
Recommendation: Staff finds the proposal complies with the annexation criteria of approval
listed in SDC 5.7-140, and Council is within its authority to approve annexation of the subject territory to the City of Springfield and Willamalane Park and Recreation District; and withdrawal
of the subject territory from the Willakenzie Rural Fire Protection District No written comments
or testimony opposing the annexation request have been received and staff recommends the City Council gives second reading to the Annexation Ordinance.

Review Process (SDC 5.7-115): The subject annexation request is being reviewed under Type IV procedures,
without Planning Commission consideration.
Development Issues Meeting (SDC 5.7-120): A Development Issues Meeting (DIM) is required of all public
agency and private landowner-initiated annexation applications.
Finding: A Development Issues Meeting for the subject annexation request was held on June 4, 2015. Conclusion: The requirement in SDC 5.7-120 is met.
Annexation Initiation and Application Submittal (SDC 5.7-125): In accordance with SDC 5.7-125.B.2.b.i and ORS 222.170(1), an annexation application may be initiated by “more than half the owners of land in the
territory, who also own more than half the land in the contiguous territory and of real property therein representing more than half the assessed value of all real property in the contiguous territory consent in writing
to the annexation of their land”.
Finding: The property owner who owns all of the land and real property, and full assessed value of real
property in the contiguous territory, has filed an application and petition requesting annexation to the City of Springfield (Attachment 3).
Conclusion: The application requirements in SDC 5.7-125 have been met.
Site Information: The territory requested for annexation is an irregular-shaped parcel that is located along the northern boundary of Jessica Drive just east of South 66th Place. The subject site is inside the
Springfield Urban Growth Boundary (UGB) and is contiguous to the Springfield city limits on all sides. The requested annexation territory comprises approximately 1.77 acres and contains an existing water reservoir tank operated by the Springfield Utility Board. Zoning for the property is Low Density Residential
(LDR) with an Urbanizable Fringe Overlay (UF-10) applied. According to the applicant’s submittal, the subject annexation territory is intended to remain an operating public utility installation. Bringing the area into the City limits will facilitate the issuance of land use approvals and construction permits for future water system
improvements on the site.
Extension of public roads and utilities to serve land beyond the subject annexation area will require the
participation of SUB, including but not limited to potential dedication of Jessica Drive right-of-way along the south boundary of the site. The responsibilities and expectations of the developer have been outlined in an
Annexation Agreement between SUB and the City (Attachment 4).
Existing public services are provided to the annexation area as follows: police (Lane County Sheriff, Springfield Police Department), schools (Springfield School District), roads (City of Springfield), and Fire (Eugene/Springfield under contract with the Willakenzie Rural Fire Protection District). Springfield Utility
Board (SUB) operates the existing water utility infrastructure on the site that serves residential neighborhoods in the vicinity. SUB also provides electrical service to the proposed annexation area. Upon annexation, the
City of Springfield will be responsible for all urban services, including sewer, water, electricity and police/fire response to the subject area.
Notice Requirements (SDC 5.7-130): Consistent with SDC 5.7-130, notice was provided as follows:
Mailed Notice. Notice of the annexation application was mailed September 14, 2015, which is at least
14 days prior to the public hearing date, to the affected property owner(s); owners and occupants of properties located within 300 feet of the perimeter of the proposed annexation territory; affected neighborhood groups or community organizations officially recognized by the city that includes the
affected territory; affected special districts and all other public utility providers; and the Lane County Land Management Division, Lane County Elections, and the Lane County Board of Commissioners.
Attachment 1, Page 2 of 6
Newspaper Notice. Notice of the October 5, 2015 public hearing was published in The Register-
Guard on September 21 and 28, 2015.
Posted Notice. Notice of the October 5, 2015 public hearing was posted in five public places in the
City: along the property frontage on Jessica Drive; at Springfield City Hall and in the Development and Public Works office; on the electronic display in the foyer of the Development and Public Works office; and on the City of Springfield website.
Finding: Upon annexation of the subject territory to the City the Low Density Residential zoning will be
retained, but the Urbanizable Fringe Overlay District (UF-10) will no longer apply. Due to this change, the
Oregon Department of Land Conservation and Development (DLCD) was notified in writing of the annexation proceedings prior to the public hearing. Notification to DLCD regarding the proposed annexation was sent on
August 31, 2015. Conclusion: Notice of the public hearing was provided consistent with SDC 5.7-130.
Recommendation to City Council (SDC 5.7-135): The Director shall forward a written recommendation on the annexation application to the City Council based on the approval criteria specified in Section 5.7-140, which
are provided as follows with the SDC requirements, findings, and conclusions. The Director’s recommendation follows SDC 5.7-140, Criteria.
Criteria (SDC 5.7-140): The application may be approved only if the City Council finds that the proposal
conforms to the following criteria: A. The affected territory proposed to be annexed is within the City’s urban growth boundary; and is 1. Contiguous to the city limits; or 2. Separated from the City only by a public right of way or a stream, lake or other body of
water. Finding: The subject annexation territory is located within the acknowledged urban growth boundary (UGB) of the Eugene-Springfield Metropolitan Area General Plan (Metro Plan). The area requested for annexation abuts
the Springfield city limits on all sides. Therefore, this annexation application meets the statutory definition of contiguity as found in ORS 222.111(1). Conclusion: The proposal meets this criterion.
B. The proposed annexation is consistent with applicable policies in the Metro Plan and in any applicable refinement plans or Plan Districts; Finding: The Metro Plan was acknowledged by the Land Conservation and Development Commission (LCDC)
in August, 1982 and has been subsequently amended. The annexation area is located within the acknowledged UGB of the Metro Plan. Territory within the delineated UGB ultimately will be within the City of Springfield. Finding: The territory requested for annexation is entirely within the City’s acknowledged UGB. Finding: The territory requested for annexation is zoned and designated Low Density Residential (LDR) in
accordance with the Springfield Zoning Map and the adopted Metro Plan diagram. There are no proposed changes to the current zoning or plan designation.
Finding: The continued annexation of properties and public street rights-of-way to the City of Springfield is consistent with the Metro Plan, which will result in the elimination of special districts within the urbanizable
area. The Metro Plan recognizes that as annexations to the City occur, the special district service areas will diminish incrementally and eventually will be dissolved.
Finding: The territory requested for annexation is within the Willakenzie Rural Fire Protection District. The
Attachment 1, Page 3 of 6
Fire Protection District has a service arrangement with Eugene/Springfield for provision of fire response to
unincorporated areas of south Springfield. After the public hearing and upon Council adoption of the annexation
Ordinance, the annexation area will be withdrawn from the Willakenzie Rural Fire Protection District consistent with ORS 222.510, 222.520, and 222.525 and the Cities of Eugene & Springfield will provide fire
protection service directly to the annexation area. Finding: After the public hearing and upon Council adoption of the annexation Ordinance, the annexation area
will be annexed into the Willamalane Park and Recreation District as authorized by an intergovernmental agreement between the City of Springfield and Lane County. The park district provides park and recreation
facilities and services to territory within the City of Springfield. Conclusion: The proposal meets this criterion.
C. The proposed annexation will result in a boundary in which the minimum level of key urban facilities and services as defined in the Metro Plan can be provided in an orderly efficient and timely manner; and Finding: The Metro Plan recognizes annexation as the highest priority for extending the minimum level of key
urban facilities and services to urbanizable areas. Finding: The territory requested for annexation will take advantage of urban service delivery systems that are already in place or can be logically extended to serve this area. In addition to urban utilities, the following
facilities and services are either available or can be extended to this annexation area: Water – The Springfield Utility Board currently operates a water utility installation on the property requested for annexation. The existing reservoir tank provides potable water service to nearby incorporated areas of southeast
Springfield. Upon annexation the subject property would be served by the City by and through the Springfield Utility Board, although it is not expected that the reservoir site would require its own water service.
Electricity – SUB Electric provides service to developed properties in this area of southeast Springfield, including the subject site. Existing electrical system infrastructure within the adjacent public rights-of-way will
be maintained by the affected utility providers.
Police Services – Springfield Police Department currently provides service to areas of southeast Springfield that
are already inside the City limits. The annexation territory is currently within the jurisdiction of the Lane County Sheriff’s Department. Upon annexation, this area will receive Springfield Police services on an equal
basis with other properties inside the City. Fire and Emergency Services – Fire protection is currently provided to the annexation area by Eugene/
Springfield Fire Department under contract with Willakenzie Rural Fire Protection District. Upon annexation,
the Eugene/Springfield Fire Department will continue to provide fire and emergency services to the subject territory.
Emergency medical transport (ambulance) services are provided on a regional basis by the Eugene/Springfield
Fire Department, and Lane Rural Fire/Rescue to central Lane County. The annexation area will continue to
receive this service consistent with the adopted ambulance service area (ASA) plan. Mutual aid agreements have been adopted by the three regional ASA providers to provide backup coverage for each other’s
jurisdictions. Parks and Recreation – Park and recreation services are provided to the City of Springfield by the Willamalane
Park and Recreation District. The park district operates several indoor recreation facilities, such as the Willamalane Park Swim Center, Lively Park Swim Center, Memorial Building Community Center, and Willamalane Adult Activity Center. The park district offers various after-school and other programs for
children at schools and parks throughout the community. Also available are pathways and several categories of parks, including community parks, sports parks, special use parks, and natural area parks.
Attachment 1, Page 4 of 6
Concurrent with annexation to the City of Springfield, the subject area will be annexed to the Willamalane Park and Recreation District consistent with City policy and the adopted Willamalane Comprehensive Plan. Library Services – Upon annexation to the City of Springfield, the subject area will be within the service area of
the Springfield Public Library.
Schools – The Springfield School District serves the southeast area of Springfield. Based on characteristics of the existing public utility facility on the property, and the applicant’s future development plans for the site, it is not expected that the annexation territory will generate any permanent residents or school-age population in the
future. Sanitary Sewer – The annexation territory is not currently served by sanitary sewer and it is not expected that
service will be required for the water utility installation. If sanitary sewer service is deemed necessary in the future, it can be extended from the adjacent public system in Jessica Drive or South 66th Place.
Stormwater – The subject annexation territory is not currently served by a piped stormwater management system. Improvements to the on-site stormwater system may be required as development plans are advanced for
the subject site. In the interim, runoff from the subject site – which is limited primarily to the surface of the
reservoir tank – infiltrates into the ground. Streets – The subject annexation area abuts the north edge of Jessica Drive and is also accessible via a private
easement and driveway from South 66th Place. At such time as development plans are forwarded for the subject property in the future, any required street frontage improvements will be reviewed and approved
through the Site Plan Review process. Extension of Jessica Drive to serve future development areas to the east will require the participation of SUB and potential dedication of right-of-way along the south edge of the site. The responsibilities and expectations of the developer have been outlined in an Annexation Agreement between
SUB and the City, incorporated herein by reference (Attachment 4).
Solid Waste Management – The City and Sanipac have an exclusive franchise arrangement for garbage service
inside the City limits. Upon annexation, solid waste disposal service can be provided by Sanipac. Communication Facilities – Various providers offer both wired and wireless communication services in the
Eugene-Springfield metropolitan area. Existing providers and those entering the market have the capability to provide service to this area.
Land Use Controls – The annexation area is within Springfield’s urban growth boundary. Through an intergovernmental agreement between Lane County and the City of Springfield, the City already has planning
and building jurisdiction for unincorporated areas of Springfield. The City will continue to administer land use controls after annexation.
Finding: The minimum level of key urban facilities and services, as outlined in the adopted Metro Plan, are either immediately available or can be provided within a reasonable future time frame as needed.
Conclusion: The proposal meets this criterion. D. Where applicable fiscal impacts to the City have been mitigated through an Annexation Agreement or
other mechanism approved by the City Council. Finding: The subject property contains an operating water utility installation that will continue to serve residential neighborhoods in southeast Springfield. In recent discussions with SUB, City staff
has outlined the responsibilities and expectations of the developer when and if future on-site improvements are proposed for the site. Additionally, extension of Jessica Drive and public utilities to serve future development
areas to the east and southeast will require the participation of SUB as both property owner and utility provider. Therefore, the responsibilities and expectations of the developer and partner agency rise to the level of requiring an Annexation Agreement, which is incorporated herein by reference as Attachment 4 to the AIS.
Attachment 1, Page 5 of 6
Conclusion: The proposal meets this criterion.
DIRECTOR’S RECOMMENDATION: The proposal complies with the annexation criteria of approval listed in SDC 5.7-140, and Council is within its authority to approve annexation of the subject territory to the City of Springfield and Willamalane Park and Recreation District; and withdrawal of the subject
territory from the Willakenzie Rural Fire Protection District.
City Council Decision (SDC 5.7-145): City Council approval of the annexation application shall be by Ordinance.
Finding: On October 5, 2015, the City Council held a Public Hearing for the subject annexation request and gave first reading to the Annexation Ordinance. Based on the staff analysis and recommendation, and on
testimony provided at the Public Hearing, the City Council may take action to approve, modify or deny the Annexation Ordinance.
Finding: At the public hearing meeting on October 5, 2015, the applicant’s representative provided testimony in support of the annexation request. No other written or verbal testimony was submitted into the record. Zoning (SDC 5.7-150): The area requested for annexation is zoned and designated Low Density Residential in accordance with the Springfield Zoning Map and the adopted Metro Plan diagram. Properties that are outside
the City limits have the Urbanizable Fringe Overlay District (UF-10) applied to the zoning. Upon the effective
date of the annexation, the UF-10 overlay will be automatically removed and the site will retain the Low Density Residential (LDR) zoning. This category of public utility facility is a listed use in the LDR zone.
Effective Date and Notice of Approved Annexation (SDC 5.7-155): If the Annexation Ordinance is granted a
second reading and approved on October 19, 2015, the Ordinance will become effective 30 days after adoption
by the City Council and execution by the Mayor (anticipated on or around November 18, 2015), or upon acknowledgement of filing with the Secretary of State – whichever date is later.
Withdrawal from Special Service Districts (SDC 5.7-160): Withdrawal from special districts may occur concurrently with the approved annexation Ordinance or after the effective date of the annexation of territory to
the City. The Director shall recommend to the City Council for consideration of the withdrawal of the annexed territory from special districts as specified in ORS 222. In determining whether to withdraw the territory, the City Council shall determine whether the withdrawal is in the best interest of the City. Notice of the withdrawal
shall be provided in the same manner as the annexation notice in Section 5.7-150. Finding: The annexation area is within the delineated service territory of SUB (electric and water) and the
Willakenzie Rural Fire Protection District (fire response). The Cities of Eugene/Springfield will provide fire and emergency services after annexation, and the City of Springfield by and through the Springfield Utility
Board will continue to provide water and electric service after annexation. Consistent with SDC 5.7-160, notice was provided, a public hearing was held, and the City Council determined that withdrawal from the Willakenzie Rural Fire Protection District was in the best interest of the City. The withdrawal decision was codified in
Ordinance No. .

the annexation.
D. The Property is currently designated as Low Density Residential (LDR) on the Metro Plan
and is zoned LDR with Urbanizable Fringe Overlay (UF-10) according to the Springfield

G. A public sanitary sewer system with sufficient capacity to serve the Property and other
existing and proposed land uses in the vicinity of the Property is necessary to support a
finding that this key urban service is available to serve the Property.
An existing public sanitary sewer system is located approximately 65 feet west of the
Property within Jessica Drive and is also located in South 66th Place and has
sufficient capacity to serve the Property.
H. A public stormwater management system with sufficient capacity to serve the Property and
other existing and proposed land uses in the vicinity of the Property is also necessary to
support a finding that this key urban service is available to serve the Property.
An existing public storm sewer was constructed with the adjacent Mountaingate
Phase 3B Subdivision. This system was sized to accommodate the property.
I. An interconnected transportation system with the existing and proposed land uses in the
vicinity of the Property is also required in order to provide access and a transportation
system for the provision of Fire and Life Safety services to and from the annexed property.
The Property has access to South 66th Place via a private access easement.
The Property also has frontage on a portion of Jessica Drive, which is planned to be
extended easterly in the future.
Public right-of-way for the future easterly extension of Jessica Drive has not been
dedicated or otherwise acquired from the Property.
J. In order to facilitate orderly development of the Property and ensure the full provision of
key urban services that are satisfactory to the City and meet the City’s conditions for an
affirmative recommendation for annexation to the Common Council, and in exchange for
the obligations of the City set forth below, APPLICANT shall comply with all requirements
imposed on APPLICANT in this Agreement.
Now, therefore based upon the foregoing Recitals, which are specifically made a part of this
Agreement, the parties agree as follows:
AGREEMENT
1. Obligations of APPLICANT. Consistent with the above Recitals, APPLICANT agrees to
perform the obligations set forth in this section.
1.1. APPLICANT shall bear the proportionate cost and obligation to construct the following
public improvements, in accordance with the requirements in effect at the time of
construction as contained in the Springfield Municipal Code, Springfield Development
Code, and Chapter 12 of the EDSPM using the PIP process or another public contracting
method acceptable to the City Engineer, including but not limited to associated easements,
engineering costs, permit applications and fees, legal costs, construction and inspection
costs, and the preparation of As-built Plans.
1.1.1. Extend the public sanitary sewer system through the Property frontage on Jessica
Drive at the time of the easterly extension of Jessica Drive.
Attachment 4, Page 2 of 6

1.1.2. Fully reserve a setback based on a future Jessica Drive overall right-of-way width of
50 feet, with a slope easement of 25 feet wide that is adjacent to and northerly of the
future right-of-way line, for an approximate total setback of 50 feet from the existing
southern boundary of the Property to be used for the future easterly extension of
Jessica Drive.
1.1.3. At the time the City determines the need for the Jessica Drive right-of-way, dedicate
the right-of-way and slope easement described in paragraph 1.1.2 to the City, at no
cost to the City, for the purpose of extending Jessica Drive.
1.1.4. Pay its proportionate share of the cost to fully improve Jessica Drive to full urban
standards, including appurtenant stormwater management infrastructure, at the time
of dedication.
1.2. Provide and be financially responsible for the provision of any additional urban

Agreement, the full cost for the provision of the improvements at the time of construction
shall be used. For the purposes of this Agreement, the full cost shall include design,
construction, acquisition of land and/or easements, studies, permits from all agencies
having jurisdiction, attorney’s fees, and all other costs reasonably associated with the
implementation of the needed improvements.
2. Obligations of City. Consistent with the above Recitals, City agrees to:
2.1 Initiate and support annexation of the Property to the City before the Common Council and
support APPLICANT’s defense of any appeal of a decision to the City. However, the City
will not assume any financial responsibility to provide legal counsel on appeal.
3. Covenants Running With the Land. It is the intention of the parties that the covenants herein are
necessary for the annexation and development of the Property and as such shall run with the
Property and shall be binding upon the heirs, executors, assigns, administrators, and successors
of the parties hereto, and shall be construed to be a benefit to and burden upon the Property.
This Agreement shall be recorded, at APPLICANT’s expense, upon its execution in the Lane
County Deeds and Records. This Agreement may be assigned by APPLICANT and shall
benefit any assigns or successors in interest to APPLICANT. Execution of this Agreement is a
precondition to the support of the City for annexation of the Property described in Exhibit A to

operate unfairly upon the Property. APPLICANT waives any right to file a written
remonstrance against these improvements. APPLICANT does not waive its right to comment
upon any proposed Local Improvement District (LID) or any related matters orally or in writing.

urban facilities and services as defined in the Metro Plan Policy 8a and 8b, p.II-C-4 and as
required herein are not provided in a timely manner to the Property.
8. Land Use. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as waiving any requirements of the
Springfield Development Code or Springfield Municipal Code which may be applicable to the
use and development of this Property. Nothing herein shall be construed as City providing or
agreeing to provide approval of any building, land use, or other development application or
Land and Drainage Alteration Program (LDAP) permit application submitted by APPLICANT.
APPLICANT is responsible for obtaining, at APPLICANT’s expense, all State and/or Federal
permits and any other approvals as may be required.
9. Dolan. APPLICANT knows and understands its rights under Dolan v. City of Tigard (512
U.S.___114 S. Ct. 2309, 1994) and by entering into this Agreement hereby waives any
requirement that the City demonstrate the public improvements and other obligations of
APPLICANT, for payments, financial responsibility and reimbursements set forth in Section 1,
required herein, are roughly proportional to the burden and demands placed upon the urban
facilities and services by the development and to the impacts of the development of the
Property. APPLICANT further waives any cause of action it may have pursuant to Dolan v.
City of Tigard and cases interpreting the legal effect of Dolan arising out of the actions
described herein.

hereby waives any claim or cause of action it may have under such ORS provisions against the

enforceability or invalidity shall not affect the enforceability or validity of any other provision
of this Agreement. The validity, meaning, enforceability, and effect of the Agreement and the
