STATEMENT:
Arnold and Diane Chord, and Dianna Larsen have submitted a request for annexation to the City of

The subject site abuts the City limits on all four sides and a full suite of urban utilities are currently available along the public street frontage on Deadmond Ferry Road. The City Council conducted a public hearing for the annexation request on May 7, 2018.

Attachment 2: Ordinance with Exhibits
Exhibit A: Map and Legal Description Exhibit B: Annexation Application
Exhibit C: Staff Report and Recommendations
DISCUSSION/
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The subject site is contiguous with the City limits on all four sides and it comprises approximately 1.27 acres. Staff advises that a full range of existing urban services and utilities are available along the property frontage on Deadmond Ferry Road. Therefore, an Annexation Agreement is not warranted for this annexation request. Based on prior discussions with the applicants, staff understands that annexation of the property is requested to facilitate future redevelopment of the property. The staff report confirms the annexation request meets the criteria in SDC 5.7-100.
The subject property has a zoning and comprehensive plan designation of Low Density Residential
(LDR) with Urbanizable Fringe Overlay District (UF-10). At present, each of the two adjoining
parcels contains a single family home. Future development would be subject to the provisions of the
City’s Development Code for the LDR District, Section 3.2-200.
The City Council conducted a public hearing and gave first reading to the Annexation Ordinance at the
regular meeting on May 7, 2018. During the public notification period and at the public hearing no
one provided testimony opposing the annexation request. Staff recommends that the City Council conducts a second reading and adopts the Ordinance to annex the subject territory to the City of Springfield and to the Willamalane Park and Recreation District; and to withdraw the same territory from the Rainbow Water District. ORS Chapter 222 and SDC Article 5.7-100 authorizes the City Council 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.

Exhibit C, Page 1 of 6
Attachment 2, Page 15 of 20
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 29, 2017. 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 owners who own all of the land and real property, and full assessed value of real
property in the contiguous territory, have filed an application and petition requesting annexation to the City of Springfield (Attachment 3, Exhibit B).
Conclusion: The application requirements in SDC 5.7-125 have been met.
Site Information: The territory requested for annexation is comprised of two adjoining parcels on the south side of Deadmond Ferry Road just east of the intersection with Game Farm Road. The properties are addressed
as 377 and 385 Deadmond Ferry Road and each parcel contains an existing single family home. The subject site is inside the Springfield Urban Growth Boundary (UGB) and is contiguous to the Springfield city limits along all four sides. The requested annexation territory comprises approximately 1.27 acres and zoning for
the property is Low Density Residential (LDR) with an Urbanizable Fringe Overlay (UF-10) applied. The intent of the annexation request is to facilitate future redevelopment of the property in accordance with provisions of the LDR district. The full range of City utilities including sanitary sewer service are available along the property
frontage on Deadmond Ferry Road. Because urban utilities, services, and infrastructure are already installed and available, an Annexation Agreement is not required for this annexation request.
Existing public services are provided to the annexation area as follows: police (Lane County Sheriff,
Springfield Police Department), schools (Eugene 4J School District), roads (City of Springfield), and Fire (Eugene/Springfield under contract with Rainbow Water District). Springfield Utility Board (SUB) operates the existing water utility infrastructure in the incorporated areas surrounding the subject site, while Rainbow
Water District serves other unincorporated properties 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 April 13, 2018, 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. Newspaper Notice. Notice of the May 7, 2018 public hearing was published in The Register- Guard
on April 23 and 30, 2018.
Posted Notice. Notice of the May 7, 2018 public hearing was posted in four public places in the City: along the property frontage on Deadmond Ferry Road; at Springfield City Hall; on the electronic display
Exhibit C, Page 2 of 6
Attachment 2, Page 16 of 20
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 March 12, 2018.
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 along all four sides. Therefore, this annexation application meets the statutory
definition of contiguity as found in ORS 222.111(1).
Conclusion: The proposal meets and complies with criterion A(1), Subsection 5.7-140.
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 Gateway Refinement 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 service area of Rainbow Water District.
Rainbow Water District has a service arrangement with Eugene/Springfield for provision of fire response to
unincorporated areas of northwest Springfield. After the public hearing and upon Council adoption of the annexation Ordinance, the annexation area will be withdrawn from the Rainbow Water District consistent
with ORS 222.510, 222.520, and 222.525 and the combined fire and life safety departments of the Cities of Eugene & Springfield will provide fire protection service directly to the annexation area.
Exhibit C, Page 3 of 6
Attachment 2, Page 17 of 20
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. The subject annexation area is currently zoned
and designated for single family residential development. Conclusion: The proposal meets and complies with criterion B, Subsection 5.7-140.
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 is contiguous with the City limits and is a remnant
unincorporated island within a larger area of incorporated territory. The subject site will take advantage of urban service delivery systems that are already in place along the public street frontage on Deadmond Ferry
Road. 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 operates the public water utility system adjacent to the property requested for annexation. Upon annexation, the subject property would be served by the City by and through the
Springfield Utility Board. There is an existing public water line in Deadmond Ferry Road that would continue to provide water service to the property.
Electricity – SUB Electric provides service to developed properties in this area of northwest Springfield, including the subject site. Existing electrical system infrastructure within the adjacent public right-of-way will
be maintained by the affected utility providers.
Police Services – Springfield Police Department currently provides service to areas of northwest 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 Rainbow Water 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.
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.
Exhibit C, Page 4 of 6
Attachment 2, Page 18 of 20
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 Eugene 4J School District serves Glenwood and portions of northwest Springfield that are
north of Harlow Road. Based on the current zoning and comprehensive plan designation for the property, it is expected that the annexation territory could generate permanent residents and/or school-age
population in the future. Sanitary Sewer – The annexation territory is not currently served by sanitary sewer, but there is an existing
public sewer line along the property frontage on Deadmond Ferry Road. Sanitary sewer laterals have been
stubbed into the property frontages for each parcel. However, annexation of the property will be required before sanitary sewer service can be provided to the site.
Stormwater – The subject annexation territory is served by a combination of piped stormwater management systems in Deadmond Ferry Road, and an existing vegetated stormwater detention basin that straddles the boundary
between 385 Deadmond Ferry Road and the adjacent memory care facility at 3491 Game Farm Road. Extension of the public stormwater system will be necessary at the time of subdivision and development with single family residential homes. Connection to the public stormwater system also could be made at the northwest corner of the
site along the Deadmond Ferry Road frontage. Streets – The subject annexation area has frontage on Deadmond Ferry Road along the northern boundary.
Along the site frontage, Deadmond Ferry Road is developed as an urban major collector street with curb, gutter and sidewalk, a striped vehicle and bicycle lane in each direction, and a bi-directional center turning lane. Deadmond Ferry Road also has street lighting and a discontinuous row of street trees. Construction of new or
existing street frontage improvements along Deadmond Ferry Road will be reviewed and approved as a part of the site development or redevelopment process.
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 and complies with criterion C, Subsection 5.7-140. 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 is already partially developed with single family homes and a full range of urban utilities and services are currently available along the public street frontage. Therefore, an Annexation
Agreement is not warranted for this annexation request.
Conclusion: The proposal meets and complies with criterion D, Subsection 5.7-140.
Exhibit C, Page 5 of 6
Attachment 2, Page 19 of 20
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 Rainbow Water District. City Council Decision (SDC 5.7-145): City Council approval of the annexation application shall be by
Ordinance. Finding: On May 7, 2018, the City Council will hold a Public Hearing for the subject annexation request and
give first reading to the Annexation Ordinance. Based on the staff analysis and recommendations, and on testimony provided at the Public Hearing, the City Council may take action to approve, modify, or deny the
Annexation Ordinance. 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 Gateway Refinement 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 underlying Low Density Residential (LDR) zoning. Effective Date and Notice of Approved Annexation (SDC 5.7-155): If the annexation is granted first reading by the City Council on May 7, 2018 and adopted after a second reading on or around May 21, 2018, the Ordinance will become effective 30 days after adoption by the City Council and execution by the Mayor
(anticipated on or around June 20, 2018), 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 the Rainbow Water
District (water service and 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 Rainbow Water District was in the best interest of the City. The withdrawal decision was codified in Ordinance No. .
