URBANIZATION ELEMENT
Commentary: After approval of the Urbanization Element, the following section will be formatted and numbered
to be consistent with 2030 Residential and Economic Elements that list policies and implementation strategies
under the corresponding 2030 Plan Urbanization Goals. For discussion purposes, policies are numbered and
implementation strategies are bulleted. Green font = 2030 Urbanization Element Planning Goals Blue font = Metro
Plan policies carried over into the 2030 Plan.
Commentary: The Springfield 2030 Comprehensive Plan (2030 Plan) is currently being developed as Springfield’s
new land use comprehensive plan policy document applicable to Springfield’s jurisdictional area of the Metro Plan.
Oregon’s statewide planning goals are achieved through local comprehensive planning. State law requires each
city and county to have a comprehensive plan and the zoning and land-division ordinances needed to put the plan
into effect. The local comprehensive plan guides a community’s land use, conservation of natural resources,
economic development, and public facilities, and must be consistent with statewide planning goals.
Comprehensive plans contain 1) sections of background, data, inventories and analysis — the factual base
describing a community’s resources and features; and 2) the policy “elements” of the plan setting forth the
community’s long-range objectives and the policies by which it intends to achieve them. The policy element of
each community’s plan is adopted by ordinance and has the force of law [Oregon Statewide Planning Goals, DLCD,
March 12, 2010].
The 2030 Plan is Springfield’s local comprehensive plan to demonstrate compliance with applicable Oregon Land
Use Planning Statutes, Goals and Administrative Rules for the specific land use planning goals that it addresses.
The City and Lane County are co-adopting separate chapters — called “elements”— of the 2030 Plan on an
incremental basis to replace or refine existing policies in the Eugene-Springfield Metropolitan Area General Plan
(Metro Plan). After local adoption and approval by the State, the 2030 Plan Elements become the “acknowledged”
land use policies that control land use planning for the area within the Springfield Urban Growth Boundary.
Springfield’s Residential Land Use and Housing Element was acknowledged in 2011 to address Springfield’s housing
needs for the 2010-2030 planning period. The Economic and Urbanization Elements are being forwarded for
adoption at this time to address employment and economic development land use needs and the urban transition
process. Other elements of Metro Plan remain in effect for Springfield until they are replaced or otherwise
addressed by local adoption of future Springfield 2030 Comprehensive Plan elements or other Metro plan changes
initiated by Metro Plan partners. During this period of transition from Metro area to local plans, Springfield’s
“comprehensive plan” consists of the Metro Plan and the Elements of the Springfield 2030 Comprehensive Plan.
OVERVIEW
Exhibit C 1-1
Attachment 2, Page 274 of 1045
U-2 | Urbanization Element
The Springfield 2030 Comprehensive Plan (2030 Plan) is currently being developed as
Springfield’s new land use comprehensive plan policy document applicable to Springfield’s
jurisdictional area of the Metro Plan. The Springfield Comprehensive Plan Urbanization
Element is the chapter of the 2030 Plan that guides future development in Springfield by
describing how and where land will be developed and infrastructure provided to meet long
term growth needs while maintaining and improving community livability. The purpose of the
Urbanization Element is to inform and guide long range land use and public facilities planning to
address Springfield’s land needs for the planning period 2010-2030 in compliance with
Statewide Planning Goal 14, Urbanization.
Goal 14. Urbanization – To provide for an orderly and efficient transition from
rural to urban land use, to accommodate population and urban employment
inside urban growth boundaries, to ensure efficient use of land, and to provide
for livable communities.
Oregon law requires cities and counties to establish and maintain urban growth boundaries
(UGBs) for urban areas to provide land for urban development needs and to identify and
separate urban and urbanizable land from rural land. The land within the UGB includes “urban”
lands within the incorporated City and “urbanizable lands1” — those lands that are within the
UGB but have not yet been annexed to the City. Urbanizable lands are considered to be
available for urban development consistent with plans for the provision of urban facilities and
services. The City and Lane County are required to co-adopt comprehensive plan policies,
zoning, and development code provisions to regulate land uses and land divisions of
urbanizable lands to maintain their potential for planned urban development until adequate
public facilities and services necessary for urban level of development are available or planned.
The Urbanization Element establishes the comprehensive plan policies and zoning applicable to
urbanizable lands within Springfield’s Urban Growth Boundary (UGB) that are necessary to
efficiently and effectively plan and manage the land supply as land uses transition from rural to
urban. This policy direction is based on the need to:
Designate a 20-year supply of urbanizable land to accommodate population and
employment growth.
Allow and regulate interim land uses that do not impede future development of planned
urban land uses and densities.
1 Oregon’s Statewide Planning Goals & Guidelines define “urbanizable land” as “Urban land that, due to the
present unavailability of urban facilities and services, or for other reasons, either: (a) Retains the zone designations
assigned prior to inclusion in the boundary, or (b) Is subject to interim zone designations intended to maintain the
land’s potential for planned urban development until appropriate public facilities and services are available or
planned.”

Plan for the orderly and efficient extension of public facilities and services.
Designate land for community open space and recreational needs.
Designate land to provide and manage the public facilities and environmental services
needed to serve Springfield’s urban area.
Manage growth and improve community livability through increasingly efficient use of
land consistent and compatible with the community’s needs, resources, opportunities
and advantages within the broader Southern Willamette Valley region.
The policy direction provided by the Urbanization Element guides comprehensive planning
coordination, zoning and land use regulation within the UGB, including:
future refinement planning and zoning at the more detailed level of neighborhood,
district (e.g. Gateway), or corridor;
future regional and local transportation, infrastructure and capital improvement
planning;
future comprehensive plan, zoning and Springfield Development Code amendments;
review of property owner-initiated land use proposals; and
review of property owner-initiated land use applications including annexation requests.
SPRINGFIELD URBANIZATION PLANNING GOALS
The following Urbanization Element Planning Goals express the desired community
development outcomes and benefits the City aspires to achieve by planning and managing land
in new growth areas of the City.
UG-1 Promote compact, orderly and efficient urban development by guiding
future growth to vacant sites and redevelopment areas within the
established areas of the city, and to urbanizable lands where future
annexation and development may occur.
UG-2 Promote efficient and economical patterns of mixed land uses and
development densities that locate a variety of different life activities,
such as employment, housing, shopping and recreation in convenient
proximity; and where accessible by multiple modes of transportation —
including walking, bicycling, and transit in addition to motor vehicles —
within and between neighborhoods and districts.
Exhibit C 1-3
Attachment 2, Page 276 of 1045
U-4 | Urbanization Element
UG-3 Provide adequate level of urban services, including but not limited to
public water, wastewater, stormwater management systems,
environmental services and an urban multi-modal transportation system
as urban development occurs within the Springfield UGB.
UG-4 As the City grows and as land develops, maintain and reinforce
Springfield’s identity as a river-oriented community by emphasizing and
strengthening physical connections between people and nature in the
City’s land development patterns and infrastructure design.
UG-5 Increase Springfield’s capability to respond to natural hazard impacts and
to enhance public safety, health and robustness of the economy and
natural environment. Create opportunities for innovative urban
development and economic diversification.
MANAGING URBAN TRANSITION
Springfield manages the orderly and efficient transition of land from rural to urban to
implement the Urbanization Planning Goals through application of the following planning
policies, implementing ordinances, tools and procedures:
The Urban Growth Boundary
Comprehensive plan designations and policies
Springfield Zoning Map
Springfield Development Code land use regulations and development standards —
including the Annexation process
Planned provision of urban facilities and services:
o Metropolitan Public Facilities and Services Plan
o Springfield Wastewater and Stormwater Master Plans
o Springfield Transportation System Plan
o Springfield Capital Improvement Program

opportunities, livability and uses such as public facilities, streets and roads, schools, parks or
open space.
The UGB is mapped and specifically delineated along its entire circumnavigation of the city.
The UGB is graphically depicted in the “Springfield Urban Growth Boundary map.” The UGB
Technical Supplement2 to the Urbanization Element provides documentation to more precisely
describe the parcel-specific boundary location — a description of the methodology used by
Springfield to prepare the precise UGB location using contemporary Geographic Information
Systems (GIS) technology, previous urban growth boundary location descriptions, surveys,
applicable sections of the ORS and OARs and related land use decisions; and a list of tax lots
that are split by the UGB. Where existing and planned right-of-way comprise portions of the
UGB, the full width of that right-of-way lies within the UGB, except along the western track
where the boundary is mapped and described as the center line of Interstate Highway 5
between the north-bound and south-bound lanes.
Springfield’s urban and urbanizable area extends approximately 5 miles from north (Gateway)
to south (Glenwood McVay corridor) along the Interstate Highway 5 corridor as it travels
through the Eugene-Springfield metro area; and approximately 8.6 miles from west to east as
measured along the Franklin Boulevard-Main Street Corridor-McKenzie Highway from the
Interstate Highway 5 Willamette River bridge to the easternmost point of the UGB. The
Springfield UGB includes most but not all land between the McKenzie River on the north and
the Middle Fork Willamette River on the south. The eastern portion of the UGB includes the
Thurston South Hills and follows the ridgeline south and west to Jasper Road to encompass the
area known locally as Jasper-Natron.

SPRINGFIELD UGB AMENDMENTS 2011-2016
Prior to 2011, Springfield and Eugene shared one Metro Area UGB. Oregon Revised Statute
197.304 (2007) required both cities to independently conduct housing needs analyses and to
establish separate UGBs to meet those needs. In 2007, Springfield began an evaluation of the
UGB for two categories of land need: housing and employment.
The Springfield UGB was first acknowledged in 2011, designating a land supply to meet the
City’s residential land and housing needs for the 2010-2030 planning period. 3 The Springfield
UGB included all of the lands and waters within the previously acknowledged Eugene-

Springfield Metropolitan Area General Plan Boundary located east of the centerline of
Interstate Highway 5. The UGB provides sufficient land designated to meet all residential land
needs through the year 2030 without expanding the UGB — through implementation of plan
and zoning amendments and Springfield Development Code land use efficiency measures.
The UGB was subsequently amended in 2016 to designate a 20-year land supply for
employment and natural resource protection, and to designate public land for parks, open
space and public/semi-public facilities.4 With the exception of seven needed employment sites
larger than five acres, the City’s employment land inventory was found to be sufficient to meet
all employment land needs for the planning period without expanding the UGB. The
employment land UGB expansion added approximately 257 suitable and developable acres to
provide sites for target industries and uses that require sites larger than 5 acres.5 The public
land UGB expansion added approximately 455 acres of publicly-owned land to the UGB. The
Springfield UGB as amended and acknowledged in 2016 contains approximately 15,411 acres of
land.
RELATIONSHIP TO THE METRO PLAN, FUNCTIONAL PLANS AND REFINEMENT
PLANS
The Springfield Comprehensive Plan Urbanization Element was adopted by the City of
Springfield and Lane County as a city-specific comprehensive plan policy element to
independently address a planning responsibility that was previously addressed on a regional
basis in the Metro Plan.6 The Urbanization Element goals, policies and implementation actions
replace the more general Metro Area-wide goals, findings and policies contained in Metro Plan
sections entitled “Growth Management Goals, Findings and Policies” (Metro Plan II-C) and
“Urban and Urbanizable Land” (Metro Plan II-E) for lands within the Springfield UGB.
The Metro Plan establishes a broad regional framework for Eugene, Springfield, and Lane
County to coordinate comprehensive planning within the Eugene-Springfield Metropolitan
planning area. Metro Plan Chapter I explains the relationship between city-specific
comprehensive plans, the broad policy framework of the Metro Plan and the regionally-
coordinated functional plans. The Springfield Comprehensive Plan elements — including this
Urbanization Element — explicitly supplant the relevant portion of the Metro Plan. Should
inconsistencies occur between the Springfield Comprehensive Plan and a refinement or

RESPONSIBILITIES FOR LAND USE PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT WITHIN THE
SPRINGFIELD URBAN GROWTH BOUNDARY
Metro Plan Chapter II and Chapter IV describe jurisdictional responsibilities within the Eugene-
Springfield Metropolitan planning area. The division of responsibility for metropolitan planning
between the two cities is the Interstate 5 Highway. Springfield, Eugene and Lane County are
required to co-adopt a UGB or Metro Plan boundary change that crosses the Interstate 5
Highway. For purposes of other amendments and implementation of the Metro Plan, Lane
County has joint responsibility with Springfield between the city limits and the Metro Plan
Boundary east of the Interstate 5 Highway.
Metro Plan Chapter IV describes the procedures for review, amendments and refinements of
the Metro Plan, including amendments of the Metro Plan adopting singular or multiple
Elements of the Springfield Comprehensive Plan that explicitly supplant relevant portions of the
Metro Plan. Metro Plan amendments that are being considered in conjunction with a city-
specific plan adoption or amendment follow the procedures described in Metro Plan Chapter
IV.
Land use planning and development within the Springfield City Limits is the sole responsibility
of the City of Springfield. Land development within Springfield’s urbanizable areas is planned
and cooperatively administered by the City of Springfield in coordination with Lane County in
accordance with the policies in this Plan and as described in the ORS 190 Intergovernmental
Agreement (1987) between the City of Springfield and Lane County.8 The Agreement delegated
building, zoning, and planning administration and decision making authority for services for the
land between Springfield’s UGB and the city limits from the County to the City of Springfield
and describes criteria and procedures for land regulation and management.
Planning for regionally significant public investments within Springfield’s UGB is coordinated on
a metropolitan-wide basis by utilizing the regional transportation planning and public facilities
7 During the period of transition from Metro Plan to local comprehensive plans, Springfield’s “comprehensive plan”
consists of the acknowledged Metro Plan and the acknowledged Elements of the Springfield 2030 Comprehensive
Plan.

Springfield Public Facilities and Services Plan and the Regional Transportation System Plan.
Some of Springfield’s neighborhood refinement plans (such as the Glenwood Refinement Plan)
may include a refined level of policy guidance for urbanization in specific locations within
Springfield’s UGB.
PLAN DESIGNATION AND ZONING OF UNINCORPORATED “URBANIZABLE”
LANDS IN THE UGB
The unincorporated land within the Springfield UGB is urbanizable and is considered part of
Springfield’s land base for housing and employment as identified in the most recent buildable
land inventories. It is assumed that buildable10 lands will eventually be included in the City’s
incorporated area and developed to accommodate designated urban uses and densities.
Urbanizable lands exist in various areas of the Springfield UGB and are designated for a variety
of land uses as shown in Table 1. The land use designation determines the applicable zoning,
both before after annexation. In addition to the plan designation, zoning and the applicable
policies of this Urbanization Element, Springfield is required by Oregon law to implement land
use controls regulating interim development on unincorporated land to prevent land divisions
and uses that would preclude future development of planned urban uses and densities. As
shown in Table 1, Springfield Zoning implements this provision of the law through two different
zoning mechanisms in the Springfield Development Code: 1) the Agriculture - Urban Holding
Area Zoning District (AG) was established and applied to land after 2015 to implement the
Urban Holding Area -Employment and Natural Resource plan designations; and 2) the
Urbanizable Fringe Overlay Zoning District (UF-10) was established and applied to lands prior to
2015 and is a zoning overlay placed over multiple plan designations. Both zoning mechanisms
were established to implement the goal of compact growth through provisions that maintain
the supply of land for urban development in areas between the City limits and the UGB.
Unincorporated public land designated Government and Education or Public/Semi Public is
zoned Public Land and Open Space on the Springfield Zoning Map.
9 For other related policy discussion, see the Public Facilities and Services Element in Metro Plan Chapter III-G. The
Springfield Comprehensive Plan does not address service districts.
10 Some lands have absolute development constraints that for inventory purposes are not assumed to be buildable.
See Findings section this Element for more information.

Urban Holding Area - Employment (UHA-E) Metro Plan Designation
Lands brought into Springfield’s UGB to address 2010-2030 land needs for suitable large
employment sites are designated Urban Holding Area – Employment (UHA-E) as an interim plan
designation to maintain the land’s potential for planned urban development until appropriate
urban facilities and services are planned or available and annexation to Springfield can occur.
The Urban Holding Area – Employment (UHA-E) plan designation reserves suitable large
employment sites to meet Springfield’s long term employment land needs for the 2010-2030
planning period. Lands within the UHA-E designation are planned and zoned for the primary
purpose of reserving an adequate inventory of large employment sites that are well located and
viable for industry and not easily replicable elsewhere. The Springfield 2030 Comprehensive
Plan designates suitable large sites for employment uses that generate significant capital
investment and job creation within — but not limited to — targeted industry sectors, business
clusters and traded-sector17 industries identified in the most recent economic opportunities
analysis and Economic Element policies of this Plan.
The City expanded the UGB in 2016 to support diversification of the economy by increasing
opportunities for siting target industry employers that require large sites. The expansion was
based on the lack of vacant or potentially redevelopable parcels larger than five acres in the
City’s 2008 inventory of employment land and the need for large parcels identified in the
Economic Opportunities Analysis.18 In 2008-2016, the City conducted an Urban Growth
Boundary Alternatives Analysis and discovered that few viable options exist for bringing in
suitable large parcels of employment land close enough to the City’s urban area to maintain a
compact urban form. This is due to Springfield’s geography and topography. The City is
situated between the McKenzie and Willamette Rivers and their floodplains, and surrounded by
steeply sloped hills on three sides, thus suitable, serviceable, close-in land is in scarce supply.
The Urban Holding Area - Employment (UHA-E) designation reserves employment sites within
urbanizable areas of 50 or more suitable acres to support creation of economic districts that
will accommodate the site needs of target employment sectors. The size of employment
districts and parcels of urbanizable land designated UHA-E provides adequate dimension so as
to maximize the utility of the land resource and enable the logical and efficient extension of
services to all parcels within the UHA.
The UHA-E plan designation and Agriculture – Urban Holding Area Zoning District work together
to serve important purposes in the 2030 Comprehensive Plan. Land suitable for large
employers is identified, reserved and protected from incompatible interim development.

Bringing these lands into the UGB as designated holding areas subject to the policies of this
Urbanization Element and the regulations of the Springfield Development Code establishes the
first step for the City — in cooperation with Lane County — to comprehensively plan the
urbanizable land supply to accommodate long range employment site needs and to protect
natural resources. The UHA-E designation remains in effect until the appropriate employment
designation is adopted through a City-initiated planning process or an owner-initiated plan
amendment process. Lands designated UHA-E and zoned AG are located in two areas of the
UGB:19

Lands within the UHA-E designation are zoned Agriculture – Urban Holding Area20 to retain large
parcel sizes and current predominant farm uses until land is planned and zoned to allow urban
development.
The Springfield Development Code Agriculture – Urban Holding Area Zoning District (AG) is
established to implement the goal of compact growth through provisions that control the
potential for premature or incompatible development on large sites added to the UGB to
diversify the economy. The AG District includes provisions to limit the division of land and
prohibit urban development. A 50-acre minimum lot size is applied to lots/parcels greater than
50 acres and a 20-acre minimum lot size is applied to lots/parcels less than 50 acres to protect
undeveloped sites from inefficient piecemeal development until land is planned and zoned to
allow annexation and site development with urban employment uses and densities.
All interim development in the AG District must be designed to City standards.

Natural Resource (NR) Metro Plan Designation - North Gateway Site
Land in North Gateway brought into Springfield’s UGB to address 2010-2030 land needs for
suitable large employment sites includes portions of properties within the floodway of the
McKenzie River. Floodway is identified as an “absolute constraint” in the City’s land
inventories. Land within the floodway is not considered suitable to meet employment land
needs and is not counted as developable in the inventory. The City and County included the
floodway portion of the site in the UGB to allow consistent land use administration of the
floodplain pursuant to the purposes and standards of the Springfield Development Code
Floodplain Overlay District standards. The portion of the site North Gateway site within the
FEMA floodway is designated Natural Resource, a designation applied to privately and publicly
owned lands where development and conflicting uses are prohibited to protect natural
resource values. In addition to the purposes of the Floodplain Overlay District, land designated
Natural Resource is protected and managed for fish and wildlife habitat, soil conservation,
watershed conservation, scenic resources, passive recreational opportunities, vegetative cover,
and open space.

Springfield Development Code Agriculture – Urbanizable Fringe Zoning Overlay District (UF-

The UF-10 Overlay District is applied over multiple plan designations as shown in Table 1, and
includes unincorporated land in the following eight geographic areas of the UGB:
Table 4: Urbanizable Land in UF-10 Zoning District
West Centennial Thurston South Hills
Gateway-Hayden Bridge Jasper-Natron
Clearwater South 2nd Street
Thurston Glenwood
The UF-10 Overlay District includes provisions to limit the division of land and prohibit urban
development. All interim development in the UF-10 Overlay District must be designed to City
standards. The UF-10 Overlay is removed automatically when annexation to the City is
approved through the City’s land use review process, as described in the Springfield
Development Code Annexation chapter.
SPRINGFIELD ANNEXATION PROCESS
The annexation process — as articulated in the Springfield Development Code —guides the
efficient transition of land from rural to urban uses to accommodate population and urban
employment growth within Springfield’s UGB by:
Providing land to accommodate future urban development;
Providing land to accommodate necessary public facilities or services; and
Ensuring that land designated to accommodate population and urban employment
growth is developed to achieve its planned urban uses, densities and economic
potential in a manner consistent with the urban development standards of the
Springfield Development Code.
Oregon law grants Springfield City Council the authority to review and approve or deny
petitions to annex territory located within Springfield’s UGB to the City. Statutory
requirements for annexation are implemented through the Springfield Development Code. The
Code prescribes the City’s land use process and criteria for approving annexation petitions.
Exhibit C 1-13
Attachment 2, Page 286 of 1045
U-14 | Urbanization Element
The intent is that annexation will occur incrementally as property owners desire to develop or
redevelop land. Annexation is required when unincorporated property is proposed to be
developed or redeveloped with planned urban uses and densities or where necessary to abate
public health hazards21 such as failed septic systems.
Key Urban Services Required for Annexation to the City of Springfield
The policies and implementation strategies in the Urbanization Element ensure that urban
facilities and services directly related to land use planning and the efficient transition of land
from urbanizable to urban pursuant to Goal 14 Urbanization are provided to urbanizable lands
in a timely, orderly, and efficient manner to serve planned land uses within Springfield’s urban
growth boundary and within the metropolitan area. The Springfield Comprehensive Plan
Urbanization Element retains the long-standing Metro area urbanization policy criteria for
approving annexations:
Springfield Comprehensive Plan Urbanization Element Policy 30:
Unincorporated land within the Springfield UGB may be developed with
permitted uses at maximum density only upon annexation to the City when it is
found that key urban facilities and services can be provided to the area to be
annexed in an orderly and efficient manner. Provision of these services to the
area proposed for annexation is consistent with the timing and location for such
extension, where applicable, in the City’s infrastructure plans — such as the
Public Facilities and Services Plan; the Springfield Transportation System Plan;
the City’s Capital Improvement Program; and the urbanization goals, policies and
implementation strategies of this Element — or a logical time within which to
deliver these services has been determined, based upon demonstrated need and
budgetary priorities.
Oregon law includes requirements that must be met prior to annexation approval to ensure
orderly growth, such as prohibiting non-contiguous annexations and providing information
about properties’ contribution to offsite public systems. Oregon Administrative Rules establish
policies to protect public waters from human health hazards, including standards and
permitting requirements for onsite wastewater treatment systems construction, alteration and
repair. These rules require connection to a sewerage system that can serve the proposed

U-15 | Urbanization Element
For the purposes of land use planning and annexation, the Springfield Comprehensive Plan
defines key urban facilities and services as those services and facilities that are necessary to
serve planned urban uses and densities in accordance with applicable Statewide Planning
Goals, statutes and administrative rules: wastewater service; stormwater service;
transportation; solid waste management; water service; fire and emergency medical services;
police protection; citywide park and recreation programs; electric service; land use controls;
communication facilities; and public schools on a district-wide basis. All references to Metro
Plan policies regarding “key urban services” in Springfield refinement plans and the Springfield
Development Code shall be amended to reference Springfield Comprehensive Plan
Urbanization Element Policy 30. This plan does not address facilities and services provided by
Lane County22, the State of Oregon, or the Federal government, and does not preclude provision
of those services within Springfield.
The availability of key urban services is determined by Springfield and/or applicable public and
private service providers at the time of the annexation request, based on a determination of
existing and planned capacity, existing and proposed uses, and costs. The land use application
process for annexation is described in the Springfield Development Code. If key urban services
are not available to serve the site at the time the annexation request is made, the Code
requires an Annexation Agreement to ensure that services will be provided in a timely manner.
The Annexation Agreement states the terms, conditions, and obligations of the property owner
and the service providers regarding the fiscal and service impacts to Springfield associated with
the annexation, provision of infrastructure, and future development of the property.

URBANIZATION ELEMENT GOALS, POLICIES AND IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGIES
Commentary: Draft policies were prepared with the input of the Springfield City Council, City of Springfield and
Lane County staff, Springfield Utility Board staff, and City and Lane County attorneys to address the policies
necessary to demonstrate and ensure that development within the UGB is consistent with applicable Statewide
planning goals, statutes and administrative rules, applicable Metro Plan policies, and the City’s existing annexation
policies. The draft policies also address input received from the public and from public agencies through the 2010
Springfield and Lane County Planning Commission public hearing process and subsequent public facilities analysis
by staff and service providers.
Commentary: After approval of the Urbanization Element, the following section will be formatted and numbered
to be consistent with 2030 Residential and Economic Elements that list policies and implementation strategies
under the corresponding 2030 Plan Urbanization Goals. For discussion purposes, policies are numbered and
implementation strategies are bulleted. Green font = 2030 Urbanization Element Planning Goals Blue font = Metro
Plan policies carried over into the 2030 Plan.
The Springfield 2030 Urbanization Element Planning Goals express the desired community
development outcomes and benefits the City aspires to achieve by planning and managing land
in new growth areas before the land is annexed to become part of the City.
The Springfield 2030 Urbanization Element Policies and Implementation Strategies are the
City’s agreements and commitments to manage urban growth in ways that provide and sustain
a healthy, prosperous and equitable environment aligned with Springfield’s interests, values
and assets. The adopted policy statements and implementation strategies in this plan provide a
consistent course of action, moving the community toward attainment of its goals. Some
policies and strategies call for immediate action; others require additional studies or
community planning processes to develop more detailed or specific area plans or policy
updates.
UG-1 Promote compact, orderly and efficient urban development by guiding
future growth to vacant sites and redevelopment areas within the
established areas of the city and to urbanizable lands where future
annexation and development may occur.
Exhibit C 1-18
Attachment 2, Page 291 of 1045
U-19 | Urbanization Element
1. Urbanizable lands within the 2030 UGB shall be converted to urban uses as shown in the
Metro Plan Diagram and as more particularly described in neighborhood refinement
plans, other applicable area-specific plans, and the policies of this Plan.
2. Continue to support and facilitate redevelopment and efficient urbanization through
City-initiated area-specific refinement planning and zoning amendments consistent with
the policies of this Plan. Plans shall designate an adequate and competitive supply of
land to facilitate short-term and long-term redevelopment activity. Efficiency measures
achieved through plan amendments may be reflected in land supply calculations to the
extent that they are likely to increase capacity of land suitable and available to meet
identified needs during the relevant planning period.
Continue to provide public policy and financial support when possible for
redevelopment in Springfield.
Continue to prioritize and incentivize redevelopment in the Glenwood and
Downtown urban renewal districts and support redevelopment throughout the City
as described in the Economic and Residential Elements of this Plan.
Continue to provide development tools and incentives (such as Urban Renewal
support) within targeted priority redevelopment areas as resources become available
to facilitate expedient and economically feasible redevelopment.
Continue to conduct focused planning in key redevelopment areas, as directed by the
City Council, as resources are available. Such efforts will review, update and
supersede existing refinement plan designations and policies.
Identify and include public agencies and private stakeholder partners in district-
specific planning efforts to facilitate redevelopment through partnerships and other
cooperative relationships.
3. Any development taking place within the City’s urbanizable area shall be designed to the
development standards of the Springfield Development Code.
Policies: Development within the Urban Holding Area- Employment Designation
4. Urbanizable lands added to Springfield’s acknowledged UGB by Ordinance X, date X to
meet employment needs are designated “Urban Holding Area- Employment” (UHA-E) in
the Metro Plan consistent with the employment site needs criteria for their inclusion in
Exhibit C 1-19
Attachment 2, Page 292 of 1045
U-20 | Urbanization Element
the UGB.23 The UHA-E designation reserves employment sites within urbanizable areas
of 50 or more suitable acres to support creation of economic districts that will
accommodate the site needs of target employment sectors. The size of employment
districts and parcels of urbanizable land designated UHA-E shall be of adequate
dimension so as to maximize the utility of the land resource and enable the logical and
efficient extension of infrastructure to serve the North Gateway or Mill Race urbanizable
area.
5. Lands designated UHA-E are planned and zoned for the primary purpose of reserving an
adequate inventory of large employment sites that is well located and viable for
industry and not easily replicable elsewhere for employment uses that generate:
o A significant capital investment;
o Job creation within — but not limited to — targeted industry sectors,
business clusters and traded-sector24 industries identified in the most recent
economic opportunities analysis and Economic Element policies of this Plan.
6. Lands designated “Urban Holding Area-Employment” are zoned “Agriculture – Urban
Holding Area” (AG) on the Springfield Zoning Map and are subject to the development
standards of the Springfield Development Code AG Zoning District.
The City is bringing land into the UGB to accommodate the need for large employment sites. The
following policies restrict land division to protect those large sites for employers that need large sites.
7. For lots/parcels greater than 50 acres in the North Gateway UHA-E District, the
minimum lot/parcel size for land division is 50 acres. Land divisions that create
lots/parcels for the purpose of establishing a Natural Resource or Public/Semi-Public
Parks and Open Space designation within the floodway, wetland or riparian resource
portions of the site may create lots/parcels less than 50 acres within the Natural
Resource or Public/Semi-Public Parks and Open Space designation portion of the parent
lot/parcel. Lots/parcels created and designated for employment purposes shall retain
the 50-acre minimum until planned and zoned to allow annexation and site
development with urban employment uses and densities consistent with the policies of
this Plan.
The following policy retains large parcels. The area’s existing Lane County zoning is EFU-25 (25-acre
minimum).
23 Employment site needs are explained in the Economic Element of this Plan, and in the Springfield Commercial
and Industrial Buildable Lands Inventory and Economic Opportunities Analysis, 2015.

8. For lots/parcels less than 50 acres in the North Gateway and Mill Race UHA-E Districts,
the minimum lot/parcel size for land division is 20 acres. Land divisions that create
lots/parcels for the purpose of establishing a Natural Resource or Public/Semi-Public
Parks and Open Space designation within the floodway, wetland or riparian resource
portions of the site may create lots/parcels less than 20 acres within the Natural
Resource or Public/Semi-Public Parks and Open Space designation portion of the
lot/parcel. Lots/parcels created and designated for employment purposes shall retain
the 20-acre minimum until planned and zoned to allow annexation and site
development with urban employment uses and densities consistent with the policies of
this Plan.
The following policy suggests one way the City Council could provide an incentive for development.
9. As directed by the City Council, the City will conduct comprehensive planning processes
and adopt refinement-level plans and implementation measures to guide and regulate
urban development in the North Gateway and Mill Race UHA-E districts. The
Transportation Planning Rule requirements under OAR 660-012-0060 will be addressed
prior to any re-designation or zoning map amendment that allows urbanization.
10. Refinement Plans, District Plans, Master Plans and zoning for land within the UHA-E
designation shall support cohesive design and development of innovative Employment
districts that provide attractive sites for economic development in convenient proximity
to natural and recreational amenities and infrastructure systems designed to integrate
and protect water quality, Springfield’s Drinking Water Source Areas, riparian, wetland
and groundwater resources, aquifer recharge, and floodplain functions with compatible
employment uses.
11. Plan and zone land within the UHA-E designation to provide suitable employment sites
20 acres and larger to accommodate clean manufacturing25 uses and office/tech/flex
employers in Springfield’s target industry sectors. Limited neighborhood-scale retail
uses that primarily serve employees within an industrial or office building or complex
may be permitted as a secondary element within employment mixed-use zones. Urban
Holding Area-Employment (UHA- E) sites shall not be re-designated or zoned to permit
development of regional retail commercial uses.
25 For the purposes of this policy, “clean” is defined as land uses, construction practices, and business operations
that minimize waste and environmental impacts, and that contribute to a safe, healthy, and clean community,
maintain the aquifer recharge capacity of the site by reducing impervious surfaces, and protect Springfield’s
drinking water source areas from contamination.

12. Master plans are required for contiguous ownerships over 5 acres designated UHA-E
and shall address all of the policies of this Plan and the Master Plan requirements of the
Springfield Development Code.
The following policies (in blue font) are existing Metro Plan policies applicable to unincorporated land within the
existing UGB. The UF-10 overlay is an existing Springfield zone applied to these lands until they are annexed.
Policies: Development within the Urbanizable Fringe (UF-10) Overlay Zoning District
13. Unless the following conditions are met, the minimum lot size for campus industrial
designated areas in the UF-10 Zoning District shall be 50 acres and the minimum lot size
for all other designations in the UF-10 Zoning District shall be 10 acres. Land division in
the UF-10 Zoning District will be subject to the following requirements:
a. The approval of a conceptual plan for ultimate development at urban densities
in accordance with applicable plans and policies. The conceptual plan shall
remain in effect until superseded by other plans or actions required to enable
full urban density development.
b. Proposed land uses and densities conform to applicable plans and policies.
c. The owner of the property has signed an agreement with the city which
provides that the owner and his or her successors in interest are obligated to
not remonstrate against annexation proceedings should the city, at its option,
initiate annexation.
14. Any proposed land division in the UF-10 District that creates any lot under five acres in
size will require utilizing the following additional standards:
a. The property will be owned by a governmental agency or public utility.
b. A majority of parcels located within 100 feet of a boundary of the property are
smaller than five acres.
c. The land division does not result in more than 3 parcels.
15. The siting of all residences on urbanizable lots served by on-site sewage disposal
systems shall be reviewed by Lane County to ensure the efficient future conversion of
these lots to urban densities according to Plan assumptions and minimum density
requirements.
Exhibit C 1-22
Attachment 2, Page 295 of 1045
U-23 | Urbanization Element
16. The Development and Public Works Director may accept the use of on-site sewage
disposal systems as a temporary measure for approval of industrial and commercial
development proposals within Campus Industrial designated areas in conjunction with
annexation to a city provided:
a. It is in the City’s interest to encourage economic diversification; and
b. Extension of the public wastewater system is imminent or is identified as part of an
approved capital improvement program; and
c. An annexation agreement establishes the timeframe for connecting to the public
wastewater system.
UG-2 Promote efficient and economical patterns of mixed land uses and
development densities that locate a variety of different life activities, such
as employment, housing, shopping and recreation in convenient
proximity; and where accessible by multiple modes of transportation —
including walking, bicycling, and transit in addition to motor vehicles —
both within and between neighborhoods and districts.
The following policies suggest ways the City Council could provide incentives to prepare sites for
development to meet employment land needs.
17. In new growth and redevelopment areas throughout the City, plan and support the
transition to transportation-efficient land use patterns by providing incentives such as City-
initiated plan and zoning updates, technical assistance, implementation of design standards,
and permit processing assistance to guide the development of well-designed
neighborhoods, efficient and economically viable mixed use districts and corridors.
18. Within districts and neighborhoods currently characterized by a limited range of land uses
and activities, pursue comprehensive planning and zoning code updates to allow for mixed-
use development at appropriate locations as one method of providing additional land use
diversity and choices — as described in the Economic and Residential Land Use Elements of
this plan.
19. Support new development and redevelopment in mixed use areas to address Springfield’s
needs for housing, employment, and shopping opportunities in connected, walkable
neighborhood locations served by the region’s frequent transit network (FTN).
20. Plan and zone land to support transit-oriented land use patterns and development,
including but not limited to higher intensity development in the City’s employment and
Exhibit C 1-23
Attachment 2, Page 296 of 1045
U-24 | Urbanization Element
commercial centers and along major transit corridors; employment uses located within ¼
mile of transit stations or stops; and residential development within ½ mile of transit
stations or stops.
21. As permitted under Oregon law, require improvements in new commercial, public, mixed
use, and multi-unit residential development that encourage walking, bicycling and the use
of transit.
22. Plan and zone the North Gateway UHA-E area to guide development of a well-designed
employment district adjacent to the Interstate 5 economic corridor to support
diversification and improvement of the local, regional and state economies and to make
efficient use of existing and planned public transportation systems and infrastructure.
Applicant-initiated plan designation and zoning changes shall address logical extension of
transportation and public facilities to serve the entire North Gateway UHA-E district.
Development within the North Gateway District shall be zoned and designed to enhance the
distinctive physical surroundings and natural resources of the area while accommodating
growth and change through implementation of attractive building exteriors and low impact
development practices.
23. Amend the Gateway Refinement Plan to include the North Gateway UHA-E area prior to or
concurrent with approval of an owner-initiated plan amendment or zone change that allows
urban development in the North Gateway UHA-E area. The amended Gateway Refinement
Plan shall describe the logical extension of transportation and public facilities to serve the
entire North Gateway UHA-E area.
24. Lands added to the UGB in 2016 for employment, public facilities, parks, open space and
recreation in the Mill Race area shall be comprehensively planned in the context of a larger
Mill Race District that includes the Booth Kelly Mixed Use site and the industrially-zoned
lands south of the railroad corridor. The plan shall identify opportunities for integrating
economic development, recreation, arts, culture, historic interpretation, and
pedestrian/bicycle connectivity between the Middle Fork Willamette River and Downtown
District; and shall identify development standards that protect Drinking Water Source Areas
and other natural resources from incompatible development.
25. As depicted in Ordinance _____ Exhibit A-2, lands developed with and occupied by
Springfield Utility Board and Rainbow Water District public drinking water wells and
wellfields included in the 2015 UGB expansion are designated Public/Semi Public to
Exhibit C 1-24
Attachment 2, Page 297 of 1045
U-25 | Urbanization Element
accommodate and protect Springfield’s public water system facilities and Drinking Water
Source Areas and shall not be re-designated to allow for other urban uses.
26. As depicted in Ordinance _____ Exhibit A-2, certain Willamalane Park and Recreation
District lands, parks and facilities are included in the 2016 UGB expansion and are
designated Public/Semi Public to accommodate community needs for open space and
recreation and shall not be re-designated to allow for other urban uses.
UG-3 Provide an adequate level of urban services, including but not limited to public
water, wastewater, and stormwater management systems, environmental
services and an urban multi-modal transportation system as urban development
occurs within the Springfield UGB.
27. The coordinated, timely provision of urban services is a central element of the City’s
comprehensive growth management strategy for infill, redevelopment and new
development. Development undertaken in pursuit of housing goals, diversifying the
economy and neighborhood livability shall occur only after the logical and efficient delivery
of all urban services have been provided to these sites.
Prepare and adopt comprehensive plan and zoning updates at the neighborhood,
district, and corridor scale to determine the density, character and design of urban
development in alignment with infrastructure capacity to ensure efficient and
economical delivery of urban services in balance with the City’s financial resources.
28. Regionally significant public investments within Springfield’s UGB shall be planned on a
metropolitan-wide basis, as described in the regional transportation and public facilities
plans.
29. Annexation shall continue to be a prerequisite for urban development and the delivery of
City services in accordance with the Springfield Comprehensive Plan and Springfield
Development Code.
30. Unincorporated land within the Springfield UGB may be developed with permitted uses at
maximum density only upon annexation to the City when it is found that key urban facilities
and services can be provided to the area to be annexed in an orderly and efficient manner.
Provision of these services to the area proposed for annexation is consistent with the timing
and location for such extension, where applicable, in the City’s infrastructure plans — such
as the Public Facilities and Services Plan; the Springfield Transportation System Plan; the
City’s Capital Improvement Program; and the urbanization goals, policies and
Exhibit C 1-25
Attachment 2, Page 298 of 1045
U-26 | Urbanization Element
implementation strategies of this Element — or a logical time within which to deliver these
services has been determined, based upon demonstrated need and budgetary priorities.
31. For the purposes of land use planning and annexation approval, the Springfield
Comprehensive Plan defines key urban facilities and services as: wastewater service;
stormwater service; transportation; solid waste management; water service; fire and
emergency medical services; police protection; citywide park and recreation programs;
electric service; land use controls; communication facilities; and public schools on a district-
wide basis.26
32. Urban services provided by the City upon annexation to Springfield include storm and
sanitary sewer; water; transportation systems; police and fire protection; planning, building,
code enforcement and library services; and public infrastructure maintenance of City-
owned or operated facilities.

Limits. SUB will be the electrical service provider within the UGB as provided or permitted
under Oregon law.
34. When unincorporated territory within the UGB is provided with any new urban service, that
service shall be provided by one of the following methods in this priority order:
a. Annexation to City; or
b. Contractual annexation agreements with City
35. The City shall not extend water or wastewater service outside city limits to serve a
residence or business without first obtaining a valid annexation petition, a consent to annex
agreement, or when a health hazard abatement annexation is required.
36. The City may approve construction of urban transportation and public infrastructure
facilities prior to or concurrently with development proposals provided that such
infrastructure construction is consistent with the Public Facilities and Services Plan,
Springfield Wastewater and Stormwater Master Plans, the regional and local transportation
system plans, or the Capital Improvement Program.
26 This plan does not address facilities and services provided by Lane County, the State of Oregon, or the
Federal government, and does not preclude provision of those services within Springfield.
Exhibit C 1-26
Attachment 2, Page 299 of 1045
U-27 | Urbanization Element
The City shall continue to seek funding opportunities and public-private
partnerships to allow construction of key urban infrastructure elements to
support pedestrian and transit-friendly redevelopment in Glenwood and
Downtown, such as the Franklin Corridor multiway boulevard in Glenwood and
enhancements to the Main Street/South A couplet through Downtown.
37. Prior to re-designating and rezoning land designated Urban Holding Area- Employment, the
City shall update and adopt amendments to the Eugene-Springfield Metropolitan Public
Facilities and Services Plan (PFSP) that may be needed to identify new facilities or major
modification of facilities needed to serve development of urban employment uses within
the North Gateway or Mill Race districts as necessary to demonstrate consistency with
statewide planning Goal 11 and Goal 11 administrative rules requirements and the policies
of Metro Plan Chapter III-G Public Facilities Element of the Metro Plan.
NOTE: Policies 38-40 are intended to address Metro Plan Chapter III-F Eugene-Springfield Metropolitan Area

FINDINGS
POPULATION AND EMPLOYMENT FORECASTS FOR THE 2010-2030 PLANNING
PERIOD
In order to achieve timely compliance with their statutory obligations under ORS 197.304
(2007) Or Laws Chapter 650, the cities of Eugene and Springfield and Lane County co-adopted
the following coordinated population forecasts into the Metro Plan for Springfield’s
jurisdictional areas:

These figures effectively provide coordinated projections for years ending 2030 through 2035
and were used as the basis for the Springfield 2030 UGB and plan policies adopted to meet
residential and employment land needs for the 20-year planning period 2010-2030.
The 2030 UGB relied on the 2006 employment forecast 29of 13,440 new employees for
Springfield in the year 2030 to project employment land needs.
LAND INVENTORIES AND ANALYSES FOR THE 2010-2030 PLANNING PERIOD
The Springfield Comprehensive Plan is supported by the following land inventories and
technical analyses which are adopted as technical supplements to this Plan:

factors that preclude land development or affect the desirability of land for development.
Constraints reduce the development capacity of land.
OAR 660-009-0005(2) defines “development constraints” as factors that temporarily or
permanently limit or prevent the use of land for economic development. Development
constraints include, but are not limited to, wetlands, environmentally sensitive areas such as
habitat, environmental contamination, slope, topography, cultural and archeological resources,
infrastructure deficiencies, parcel fragmentation, or natural hazard areas. Assumptions about
constraints affect the amount of suitable, buildable land in the City’s inventories, and thus the
amount of land Springfield needs to designate to meet housing and employment needs for the
planning period. Table 1 shows constraints that were considered unbuildable for the purpose
of the 2010-2030 land inventories.

Summary of Methodology
April 5, 2011 revised August 20, 2015 1 of 4
Summary of Methodology Utilized to Refine the Location of the
Springfield Urban Growth Boundary
Purpose of this action
1. To establish a tax lot-specific map of the acknowledged Metro Urban Growth Boundary,
east of Interstate 5, in accordance with OAR 660-024-0020(2).
2. To establish a separate Urban Growth Boundary for the city of Springfield, as required
by ORS 197.304.
Background & Findings
1. The Urban Growth Boundary (UGB) was originally acknowledged by the Land
Conservation and Development Commission on August 19, 1982.
2. The existing map of the UGB was adopted by the Springfield City Council on May 17,
2004, by Ordinance No. 6087.
3. The tax lot-specific map of the acknowledged Metro Urban Growth Boundary, east of
Interstate 5 establishes a more precise location of the UGB.
4. The methodology used to determine the precise location of the acknowledged UGB is
based on the adopted policies contained in the Eugene-Springfield Metropolitan Area
General Plan (Metro Plan).
5. As adopted, the UGB is only tax lot-specific where it is coterminous with city limits,
where it has been determined through the annexation process, and where it falls on the
outside edge of existing or planned rights-of-way. (Page II-G-14 of the Metro Plan).
6. Where it is not tax lot-specific, the UGB is approximately 200’ wide. This is in
accordance with the adopted policies in the Metro Plan as well as decisions by the Lane
County Hearings Official.
a. Levi Landing (Journal #1997-06-142 & #1999-06-144) is the only area where a
more precise location of the UGB east of I5 has been determined by the Lane
County Hearings Official.
b. Letter from Steve Gordon, dated June 29, 1999.
c. The best evidence that identifies the location of the UGB in the SE Hills is:
i. The city attorney and city staff endorsed the location of the ridgeline
separating the drainage basins, as proposed in Journal #2000-06-128,
Dilbeck, and
ii. The Springfield Planning Commission found the legal description
contained in Journal #1998-11-256, Smejkal, accurately describes a portion
of the UGB in the southeast hills.
7. Where the UGB description refers to the “Line of Ordinary High Water”, this means the
line on the bank or shore to which the high water ordinarily rises annually in season.
This definition is per ORS 274.005(3).
Exhibit C 2-2
Attachment 2, Page 310 of 1045
Summary of Methodology
April 5, 2011 revised August 20, 2015 2 of 4
Methodology
1. OAR 660-024-0020(2): “The UGB and amendments to the UGB must be shown on the
city and county plan and zone maps at a scale sufficient to determine which particular
lots or parcels are included in the UGB. Where a UGB does not follow lot or parcel lines,
the map must provide sufficient information to determine the precise UGB location.”
a. This OAR requires the UGB to be shown at a scale that identifies which
particular tax lots are included in the UGB. If a tax lot is split by the UGB, there
must be sufficient information to determine the precise UGB location.
b. Where the UGB does not follow tax lot lines, a written description shall provide
sufficient information to determine the precise UGB location. This information is
contained in the table called: “Tax lots Adjacent and Split by the UGB”
2. The UGB is coincident with tax lot lines unless the tax lot line is outside the 200’ wide
area.
3. The UGB is coincident with tax lot lines when they are coterminous with the outside
edge of rights-of-way, so the full width of the right-of-way is inside the UGB.
4. Roads and Rights of Way. The UGB shall lie along the outside edge of existing and
planned rights-of-way that form a portion of the UGB so that the full right-of-way is
within the UGB. Refer to Policy #2, Page II-C-4 of the Metro Plan.
5. The location of the UGB in relation to the Interstate 5 corridor is based on the policies
contained in “Jurisdictional Responsibility” on Page II-D of the Metro Plan:
“The division of responsibility for metropolitan planning between the two
cities is the Interstate 5 Highway. Lane County jurisdiction is between the
urban growth boundary (UGB) and Metro Plan Plan Boundary (Plan Boundary);
and the county has joint responsibility with Eugene between the city limits and
UGB west of the Interstate 5 Highway and with Springfield between the city
limits and UGB east of the Interstate 5 Highway. State law (1981) provides a
mechanism for creation of a new city in the River Road and Santa Clara area.
Refer to Metro Plan Chapter IV and intergovernmental agreements to resolve
specific issues of jurisdiction.”
a. General description. The northbound lane is inside the Springfield UGB. The
southbound lane is outside the Springfield UGB. For the area underneath the
Willamette River Bridge, the UGB and the city limits are coincident.
b. Northern terminus. Extend the norsouthern tax lot line of 1703100001950000100
to the west until it intersects the centerline of the Interstate 5 right-of-way.
c. Southern terminus. Extend the southernmost point of tax lot 180311001800 that
is south of and adjacent to the Filbert Grove 5th Addition, to the W, to the
intersection of the Interstate 5 centerline and the common section line of TRS
180311 and 180310. This point is approximately 275’ south of the northbound
Interstate 5 on-ramp.
d. Centerline. For the purposes of the UGB location, the centerline is located
within the area between the northbound and southbound travel lanes as they are
currently located. A more precise location of the current centerline is included in
the following metes and bounds description. If the travel lanes are shifted and

6. Split Tax Lots. When the UGB is not coincident with tax lot lines, the criteria from the
Metro Plan shall apply. The following criteria are from Page II-G-14 of the Metro Plan.
The UGB shall follow the most appropriate feature:
a. Protection of Agricultural Lands
b. Protection of Forest Lands
c. Ridgeline (Drainage Basin)
d. Orderly and Economic Public Services
e. Floodway Fringe
f. Protection of Wetlands
Exhibit C 2-4

g. Protection of Sand and Gravel Resources
h. Airport Protection
i. Existing Development and Services (City Limits)
j. Meet Economic Goals
7. The following areas contain tax lots that are split by the UGB. Refer to the detail maps
in the technical supplement for further clarification.
a. Hayden Bridge Area Split Tax Lots: The location of the UGB is a fixed distance
(300’) that is measured from the northern edge of the Hayden Bridge right-of-
way, unless it has been previously determined as a result of a land use decision
or annexation. The location of 300’ north of the right of way was chosen since it
included most of the existing dwellings and was within the 200’ area. In
addition, the land use decisions indicated the UGB was not intended to follow
the Hayden Bridge right of way.
b. High Banks Area Split Tax Lots. The location of the UGB is either:
A fixed distance (450’) that is measured from the northern edge of the
High Banks right-of-way, or
Coincident with the city limits.
c. North Gateway Area Split Tax Lots. Refer to the description of the UGB within
the I5 corridor. The location is based on the policies contained in “Jurisdictional
Responsibility” on Page II-D of the Metro Plan.The UGB is coincident with the
unnumbered tax lot that contains the public drainage facility. The tax lot is
entirely within the UGB.
d. Thurston Area Split Tax Lots. The city limits extend outside the UGB on the tax
lot that contains the Thurston Middle School. On that tax lot, the UGB is
coincident with the section line.
e. Southeast Hills Area Split Tax Lots. The adopted policies indicate the UGB
should follow the ridgeline (refer to the table “Metro Plan Urban Growth
Boundary Map Key” from Page II-G-21 of the Metro plan). The line was
originally drawn in 1982 and generally follows the ridgeline. The city’s current
mapping technology is able to more accurately follow the ridgeline. The letter
from Steve Gordon, dated June 29, 1999, provides evidence of the intent to follow
the ridgeline. Journal #1998-11-0256 is a land use decision that provided a legal
description for a portion of this area.
f. Clearwater Area Split Tax Lots: When the UGB does not follow tax lot lines in
this area, its location is based on aerial photo interpretation and proximity to the
Jasper Rd. right of way. This effort also included a site visit and discussions with
the landowner of 5119 Jasper Rd.
g. Willamette Area Split Tax Lots: Refer to the description of the UGB within the I5
corridor. The location is based on the policies contained in “Jurisdictional
Responsibility” on Page II-D of the Metro Plan.

Description of the Springfield UGB within the Interstate 5 corridor
March 16, 2011
The location of the UGB in relation to the Interstate 5 (I-5) corridor is based on the policies
contained in “Jurisdictional Responsibility” on Page II-D of the Metro Plan. It states:
“The division of responsibility for metropolitan planning between the two cities is
the Interstate 5 Highway. Lane County jurisdiction is between the urban growth
boundary (UGB) and Metro Plan Plan Boundary (Plan Boundary); and the county
has joint responsibility with Eugene between the city limits and UGB west of the
Interstate 5 Highway and with Springfield between the city limits and UGB east
of the Interstate 5 Highway. State law (1981) provides a mechanism for creation
of a new city in the River Road and Santa Clara area. Refer to Metro Plan Chapter
IV and intergovernmental agreements to resolve specific issues of jurisdiction.”
General description
The northbound lane is inside the Springfield UGB. The southbound lane is outside the
Springfield UGB. For the area underneath the Willamette River Bridge, the UGB and the city
limits are coincident.
Northern terminus
Extend the norsouthern tax lot line of 1703100001950000100 to the west until it intersects the
centerline of the Interstate 5 right-of-way.
Southern terminus
Extend the southernmost point of tax lot 180311001800 that is south of and adjacent to the
Filbert Grove 5th Addition, to the W, to the intersection of the I-5 centerline and the common
section line of TRS 180311 and 180310. This point is approximately 275’ south of the NB I-5
onramp.
Metes and bounds description
This is a metes and bounds description of the northern and southern terminus points of the
Springfield UGB within the I-5 right of way.
For the purposes of the UGB location, the centerline is located within the area between the
northbound and southbound travel lanes as they are currently located. A more precise location
of the current centerline is included in the following metes and bounds description. If the travel
lanes are shifted and the metes and bounds description conflicts with the new travel lanes, the
general description shall apply.
