5. QUASI-JUDICIAL PUBLIC HEARING – a. Continuation From December 3, 2002 – Discretionary Use – Springfield School District – 2002-09-0290 –
Springfield School District submitted a Discretionary Use application to upgrade existing athletic fields and facilities at Thurston High School which is zoned Public Lands and Open Space.
Proposed improvements would be in three phases which would be considered as a sports complex/stadium use. Phase I consists of lighting for the existing football field and track. Phase II would
replace turf on the football field with artificial turf and install lighting for baseball fields, soccer fields,
and softball fields. Phase III would construct a covered grandstand with up to a 2,500 seating capacity. A ticket booth/concession stand would be placed northwest of the field. Phase III also includes added fire
lanes and lighted pedestrian access. Springfield Development Code (SDC) 23.020(2)(d) requires sports
complexes/stadiums to be approved through discretionary Use procedures. (Summers)
b. Continuation from December 17, 2003 – Rezone – Hammer/Shaw - ODOT – ZON2002-10350 –
The subject properties (2) comprise approximately on half acre located at the intersection of 18th Street
and Mohawk Boulevard. The current zoning is not consistent with the Metro Plan designation. The proposed zone change would eliminate the “plan/zone conflict” and bring the zoning of the site into conformance with the Metro Plan Diagram.
Plan/zone consistency is addressed during refinement planning, legislative rezones or by property owners at the time of development. In this case, the developers (Shaw/Hammer) have received site plan approval
for a commercial use on the site and are required to eliminate the plan/zone conflict on the development area as a condition of that approval. The developer is in the process of purchasing adjacent property for inclusion in the development area, therefore te adjacent property owner (ODOT) is a co-applicant.
