4. QUASI-JUDICIAL PUBLIC HEARING – a. South Bank Viaduct: Willamette Greenway Development Permit and Site Plan Review –
The Planning Commission conducted a joint hearing with the Lane County Hearings Official on December 7,
2010. A large portion of the viaduct lies outside of the city limits, but within the Springfield UGB, triggering
the Hearings Official’s participation.
There was insufficient number of Commissioners present for a quorum. The hearing was conducted and closed. The record was left open through December 10 to allow staff to submit revised conditions of approval in response to a request from the Hearings Official and the Commissioners.
Staff recommends that the Planning Commission approve the Willamette Greenway Development Overlay
District permit and Site Plan (Tentative) as modified by the conditions of approval issued by the Lane County
Hearings Official. While the Commission is not required to follow the decision of the Hearings Official, his decision and conditions of approval are substantively consistent with the recommendations of staff.

b. Metro Plan Amendment: Springfield Natural Resources Study Glenwood Update Planning File No. LRP2010-00002–
A new inventory of wetlands and riparian corridors in Glenwood was recently completed. Four new wetlands and three new riparian sites were identified. At issue is approval of a package of proposed amendments to the
Springfield Natural Resources Study (NR Study), the Springfield Local Wetland Inventory (Wetland Inventory) and the Springfield Inventory of Natural Resource Sites (NR Inventory) to include the new
Glenwood sites. The NR Study, Wetland Inventory and the NR Inventory are Springfield-specific refinement
plans that supplement the Metro Plan (Metro Plan pg. I-5). These amendments must be reviewed by the Planning Commission and adopted jointly by the City Council and Lane County Board of Commissioners.
