Development Issues Meeting Process
The purpose of a Development Issues Meeting is to give an applicant the opportunity to discuss
his/her development proposal with the development review staff of the City. The discussion can
be general or specific, depending on the details provided with the application. A Development
Issues Meeting provides information to an applicant related to the current development
conditions and standards of the City. The Development Issues Meeting is not a land use decision
and does not confer any development rights, establish any conditions, or bind the applicant or
the City to any course of action. The meeting conveys the status of known development
opportunities and constraints. The status may change over time as development conditions or
standards change.
1. Applicant Submits a Development Issues Meeting Application
• The application must conform to the Development Issues Meeting Submittal
Requirements Checklist on page 3 of this application packet.

• The applicant's proposal is circulated to the relevant staff in preparation for the
meeting.
2. Applicant and the City Conduct the Development Issues Meeting
• The applicant and any design team should attend the development issues meeting.
• The meeting is scheduled for one hour.
• Staff attending the meeting will be prepared to discuss the issues raised in the
submittal by the applicant. Other issues raised during the meeting may also be
discussed.
• The meeting is informal and the City will issue no staff report.

DEVELOPMENT ISSUES MEETING I NORTHWOOD CHRISTIAN CHURCH
Marcella Road and Street 1 17-03-25-1 1-02300
Northwood Christian Church is planning to build a new church facility on the parcel noted
herein.The property is zoned CC, Community Commercial and churches are permitted
outright in this zone (SDC 3.2-310).The church fronts on Marcola Road, an arterial street
and the future extension of V Street, a collector street (Must front on a collector or arterial
street per SDC 4.7-130). Irving Slough, a local wetland, runs through and at the edge of the
parcel at the west and north. Surrounding properties are Community Commercial (at the
east and a portion of the west), Single Family Residential (portions of the west and north)
and a small portion of Medium Family Residential (at the northeast).
QUESTIONS
I. SCREENING FROM RESIDENTIAL: Springfield Development Code 4.4-1 10 requires
screening (either a 6 ft hedge or 6 ft fence) when abutting residential zones.This would
be the northern portion of the west property line and the entire north property line.
Since no proposed building are within 100 feet of the adjacent residential properties
(indeed, the range of setback is 260 to over 400 feet), is there the ability to eliminate this
requirement? The Irving Slough, a local wetland borders most of the area where
screening would need to occur and it seems to conflict with what is desired for the
wetland areas.
2. STORMWATER:WiII we be required to detain all stormwater onsite or are we able to
treat on-site, then distribute post -development flow into the existing storm system?
With the local wetlands at the Slough, can our stormwater be directed there? We also
have plans for a future bridge across the slough to the future High School building and
the overflow parking lot; are there any special requirements for the bridge?
3. MONUMENT SIGN:The church would like to install a monument sign on the property,
facing Marcella Road.We assume the provisions of SMC 8.200, specifically 8.248 in the
Community Commercial zone would apply, is this correct? We assume we are allowed a
maximum 100 sq ft for one face and 200 sq ft for two or more faces at a maximum of
20 ft above grade is allowed, is this correct? It is unclear to us from the Sign Code
whether or not internal illumination allowed. Could you clarify? SMC 8.248(4) discusses
external illumination requirements, but seems silent on internal illumination. yet in a CC
zone, internal illumination seems appropriate.
4. BUILDING HEIGHTS AND SETBACKS:T here is no maximum building height in the CC
zone and we believe we are meeting all of the setback requirements from the parking
areas and buildings. Do you see any issues with the parking and building locations that
would cause concern? What setbacks will be required from the Slough? Is there a f rm,
delineated edge line for the wetland that we could measure that setback from? We do
not anticipate there being an issue, but want to be sure.
VEHICLEAND BICYCLE PARKING:The church facility is approximately 44,788 sq ft
total.About 10,000 sq ft is the main assembly space. Per SDC 4.6-125, we calculate 100
required vehicle parking spaces for the main assembly space and 174 for the remainder
of the building, totaling 274 spaces. We are providing 239 spaces (including 40 at the
overflow west of the slough), including 7 standard accessible spaces and 2 "wheelchair
user only" spaces (per OSSC 1 106.1). Per SDC 4.6-1 10(L), it appears we can reduce the
required 274 spaces by up to 20%, resulting in a minimum number of vehicle spaces of
220. Is this a correct assumption? We are also providing 705 seats in the main
auditorium. Based on a ratio of I bicycle parking space per 20 seats, we calculate the
need for 36 bicycle parking spaces (all short-term), with at least 13 sheltered (50% of
those spaces over 10).We also believe we will need to provide 4 oversize spaces (109'.).
Are these also a correct assumptions? We would also like to disperse the bicycle parking
since there are so many required spaces and locating all of the bicycle parking and ADA
spaces at the main entry would, frankly, be cluttered. Is it possible to disperse some of
the bicycle parking spaces among various entries to the facility (SDC4.6-150(A)(3)(a):
"primary point of entry to the use")?
