AN ORDINANCE AMENDING THE SPRINGFIELD DEVELOPMENT CODE
CHAPTER 3 LAND USE DISTRICTS, SECTION 3.2~210; 3.2-215; 3.2-230;
AND 3.3-910; CHAPTER 4 DEVELOPMENT ST ANDARoS, SECTION 4.2-140;

120; AND 5.17-120; ADOPTING A SEVERABILITY; CLAUSE; AND
DECLARING AN EMERGENCY. (10. No. LRP2007~00027)
ISSUE
STATEMENT:
The recent Code reformatting project resulted in some errors of omission, grammar
and proper sequencing of information. These proposeq amendments will correct
these known "scrivener's errors."
ATTACHMENTS:
1. Ordinance
2. Planning Commission Findings and Recommendation
DISCUSSION/
FINANCIAL
IMP ACT:
The Code reformatting project involved the comprehensive rearrangement of all the
Development Code text from its former 44 Articles into 6 Chapters. The principle
1
objectives were to place all ofthese regulations and standards in more logical
groupings; eliminate repetitive occurrences of the same information; and make the
document easier for everyone to use. The project was 'a qualified success, that
qualification being the sheer number of standards and ~egulations undergoing re-
numbering inevitably created opportunities for a variety of niggling errors that have
been discovered as time has passed and usage has increased. There could be, and
probably are, other errors similar to those included in ~his Ordinance, but staff is
requesting that the action requested today proceed and: that the Council exercise its
usual forbearance when the next similar ordinance is ~resented for consideration.
The emergency clause is requested to allow proper imllementation of the Code to
commence with Council action. To view the proposed changes in legislative format,
please refer to the last seven pages of Attachment 2.

canopy along the public street system, Street trees are attractive amenities that improve the appearance
of the community, providing shade and visual interest. Street trees also improve air quality, reduce
stormwater runoff and moderate the micro-climate impacts of heat absorbed by paved surfaces. Street
trees may be located within planter strips, in individual tree wells within a sidewalk, round-abouts, or
medians.
EXCEPTION: In order to meet street tree requirements where there is no pla~ter strip and street trees
cannot be planted within the public right-of-way, trees shall be planted in the required front yard or street
side yard setback of private property as specified in the applicable zoning district.

the tree. Sidewalks of variable width, elevation and direction may be used to save
existing trees, subject to approval by the Director and Public Works Director.

ISSUE
I
The Code reformatting project recently completed result.ed in a numb~r of errors, primarily
grammatical, sequential or omission. This proposal will correct these Scribner's errors.
DISCUSSION
,
I
The recently completed Development Code reformatting process was!a substantial undertaking
that resulted in the reorganization of hundreds of Code regulations in what were formerly 45
"Articles" into 6 Chapters. Although numerous redundancies were eliminated, no changes were
made to any of the provisions of the Code, including intent and purpose sections, which act as
policy or policy implementation. However, the sheer volume of the reorganization task resulted
in some unintentional omissions; some inaccurate references due to renumbering; and some
errors in punctuation. The seven pages of corrections attached to this memorandum constitute
the known extent of Scribner's errors created by the reformatting proj~ct.

STAFF REPORT, FINDINGS AND ORDER
APPLICANT
City of Springfield - Jo. No. LRP 2007-0027
REQUEST
Amendment of the Springfield Development Code (SDC) - Chapters 3, 4 and 5 (various
Sections of each) to correct Scribner's errors. . i
I
i
BACKGROUND
Beginning in 2005 and culminating on September 17, 2007, the City staff has been engaged in
the reformatting of the Springfield Development Code. The Council directed this action to be
limited to a logical reorganization of regulations and provisions that would facilitate ease of use;
under no circumstances were changes to be made to these regulations or provisions other than
elimination of redundancies. As a result, what was formerly a 45 article code became a 6
\ chapter code. This magnitude of reorganization called for a very high level of detail tracking,
particularly references to tables, provisions or uses which were all rearranged into new
categories or locations within the document. In the first 3 months of use, staff has discovered
several types of errors, including omissions, incorrect citations and some punctuation. '
Attachment 2 shows these errors, and their corrections, in legislative format.
SPRINGFIELD DEVELOPMENT CODE CRITERIA FOR SDC AMENDMENTS
SDC 5.6-115 of the Springfield Development Code establishes criteria that must be met in order
to approve this request. "In reaching a decision on these actions, the Planning
Commission and the City Council shall adopt findings which demonstrate conformance
to the following: A. The Metro Plan; B. Applicable State statutes;, and C. Applicable State-
wide Planning Goals and Administrative Rules. ". i
A. The Metro Plan; II
"The Eugene-Springfield Metropolitan Area General Plan [Metro plan] is the official long-
range general plan (public policy document) of metropolitan Lan.e County and the cities
of Eugene and Springfield. Its policies and land use designations apply only within the
area under the jurisdiction of the Plan. The Plan sets forth genet:al planning policies and
land use allocations and serves as the basis for the coordinated; development of
programs concerning the use and conservation of physical resources, furtherance of
assets, and development or redevelopment of the metropolitan ~rea." P. 1-1 . .
Staff ResDonse and Findina:
These amendments correct Scribner's errors; they do not seek to add. delete or amend the
intent, purpose or meaning of any of these provisions, regulations or ~tandards. Nothing about
the original instruction from Council allowed any change to policy implementation; nothing about
the reformatting end product contained any change to policy implementation; nothing about any
of these proposed cor:rections changes any policies or the implement~tion of policies held forth
I
ATTACHMENT 2 - 2
in this Code. These changes, as with the reformatted Code, continuJ to implement the Eugene-
Springfield Metropolitan Area General Plan as demonstrated in the fi~dings of Journal LRP
2007-00020 adopted on September 17, 2007. i

"B.) Applicable State statutes, n
Staff Response and Findina:
i
These amendments are undertaken exclusively to correct omissions, :reference citations and
punctuation that resulted in the reformatting of the Springfield Development Code. Nothing
contained in these proposed amendments is of sufficient magnitude, impact or effect to rise to
the level of assessment intended by the application of state statutes qr administrative rules.

'scribner's errors". I
Commentary: Ref. Section 3.2-210. "RV's as a residential use" was !how the original text read.
During the SDC reformat staff review, a decision was made to chang~ the text to "RV's as a
permanent new use" to differentiate it from "RV's as a temporary use L.. Emergency Medical
Hardship" (emphasis added). In order to assist Code F=nforcement personnel in processing
Code violations involving RV's, returning to the original text is necess~ry.

14.2-140 Street Trees
Street trees are those trees [located] reauired within the public right-of-way. The primary
purpose of street trees is to create a streetscape that benefits from the aesthetic and
environmental qualities of an extensive tree canopy along the public street system. Street trees
are attractive amenities that improve the appearance of the community, providing shade and
visual interest. Street trees also improve air quality, reduce stormwater runoff and moderate the
micro-climate impacts of heat absorbed by paved surfaces. Street trees may be located within
planter strips, in individual tree wells within a sidewalk, round-abouts, or medians.
