(WRITTEN NARRATIVE IS ON FOLLOWING PAGES) Written Narrative Tentative Subdivision for Ninth St. Properties, LLC SSW Job #20-7774 Page 1 of 13 Project Description The property involved in this request is a 0.93 acre parcel of land comprised of Tax Lot 11900 of Lane County Assessor's Map 17-02-31-24. The subject property is currently under residential use and developed with an existing single-family dwelling and detached garage to remain (431 35th Street). The subject property is bounded on the west by 35th Street, and is bounded on the north, south and east by previously developed private properties.. Said adjacent private properties are under separate ownership. The subject property is currently designated "Low Density Residential" per the Comprehensive Plan, and is currently zoned LDR Low Density Residential. The applicant desires to subdivide the subject property into six lots, each of which is proposed to accommodate one single-family dwelling for a total of 6 dwelling units following subdivision approval. This results in a proposed net density of 6.45 dwelling units per acre, which complies with the permitted density range of 6 tol4 dwelling units per net acre within the LDA zoning district per Section 3.2-205 of the Springfield Development Code (SDC). This written narrative will describe how this request is consistent with applicable criteria contained in Sections 5.12-115, 5.12-120 and 5.12-125 of the Springfield Development Code (SDC) regarding general requirements, submittal requirements and approval criteria for tentative land division plans. Applicable criteria are cited in bold italic text, followed by corresponding responses and findings shown in regular text. 5.12-115 Tentative Plan - Generad Any residential land division shall conform to the following standards: A. The loUparcel dimensions shall conform to the minimum .standards of this Code. When lots/parcels are more than double the minimum urea permitted by the zoning district, the Director shall require that these hailparcels be arranged. 1. To allow redivision, and 2. To allow for the extension of streets to .serve future lon parcels. 3. Placement of structures on the larger lots/parcels shall be subject to approval by the Director upon a determination that the potential marinmm density of the larger ha parcel is not impaired In order to make this determination, the Director may require a Future Development Plan as specified in Section 5.12-120E. Proposed Lot 1 will be 5,000 square feet, the pan portion of Lots 2-5 will be 5,605 square feet, 6,940 square feet, 5,869 square feet and 4,764 square feet, respectively, and Lot 6 will be 8,408 square feet, all of which comply with the required 4,500 square foot minimum lot area for standard and panhandle lots zoned LDR per SDC 3.2-215. All proposed lots are less than double the minimum men permitted by said LDR zoning district. Lot l is proposed to have 54.19 feet of street frontage on 351h Street, which constitutes a 9.68% reduction to the minimum 60 feet of street frontage for standard Iota on north -south streets in the LDR zone per SDC 3.2-215, therefore a Minor Variance is being requested (via concurrent application) pursuant to the criteria at SDC 5.21-125(A)(2). Lots 2-5 will each have 6.50 feet of frontage on 35th Street with a combined total of 26.00 feet, which complies with the required minimum of 26 feet of combined street frontage for multiple panhandle lots in the LDR zone per SDC 3.2-215. Lot 6 will have 63.58 feet of frontage on 35th Street, which complies with the required minimum of 60 feet of street frontage for standard lots on north -south streets in the LDR zone per SDC 3.2-215. Written Narrative Tentative Subdivision for Ninth St. Properties, LLC SSW Job #20-7774 Page 2 of 13 B. Double frontage lots/parcels shall be avoided, unless necessary to prevent access to residential development from collector and arterial streets or to overcome specie topographic situations. No double frontage lots are proposed. C. Panhandle lots{parcels shall comply with the standards specified in Sections 3.2-215 and 4.2-12". In the ease of multiple panhandles in Subdivisions, construction of necessary utilities to serve all approved panhandle lots/parcels shall occur prior to recording the Plat.

Project Description 'the property involved in this request is a 0.93 acre parcel of land comprised of Tax Lot 11900 of Lane County Assessor's Map 17-02-31-24. The subject property is currently under residential use and developed with an existing single-family dwelling and detached garage to remain. 1'he subject property is currently designated "Low Density Residential" per the Comprehensive Plan, and is currently zoned LDR Low Density Residential. Written Narrative Minor Variance Application for Ninth -St. Properties, LLC SSW Job #20-7774 Page 1 of 3 The applicant has submitted a concurrent tentative subdivision application which proposes to subdivide the subject property into six lots, each of which is proposed to accommodate one single-family dwelling for a total of 6 dwelling units following subdivision approval. Phis results in a proposed net density of 6.45 dwelling units per acre, which complies with the permitted density range of 6 tol4 dwelling units per net acre within the LDR zoning district per Section 3.2-205 of the Springfield Development Code (SDC). Due to the size, shape and orientation of the subject property, the proposed lot layout for the subdivision includes two standard lots along 35th Street and four panhandle lots towards the rear of the subject property in order to meet the minimum residential density requirements as described above. However, the subject property is situated on a north -south street and doesn't quite have enough existing street frontage to accommodate two standard lots with 60 feet of frontage each in addition to the required 26 feet of combined street frontage for the shared access/ pole portions of the panhandle lots. The applicant is therefore requesting Minor Variance approval to adjust the street frontage standard for proposed Lot 1, which is the northerly of the two standard lots. This written narrative will describe how this request is consistent with applicable minor variance criteria contained in Section 5.21-125 of the Springfield Development Code (SDC). Applicable criteria are cited in bold italic text, followed by corresponding responses and findings shown in regular text. 5.21-125 Minor Variances - Criteria A. Minor Variances rare limited to certain specific numeric standards in this Code. The Director may adjust the following numeric standards by up to 30 percent as a Minor Variance. 1. Building setbacks; 2. Lot/parcel dimensions that do not reduce the required loilparcel size below the minimum required in the applicable zoning district, 3. Building height; 4. LoUparcel coverage outside of the HD Overlay District as described in Section 3.3-510; and 5. Parking standards on certain infril lots1parcels. The mmneric standard proposed to be adjusted involves lot dimensions pursuant to SDC 5.21-125(A)(2) above, more specifically a reduction to the 60 foot minimum street frontage for standard lots on north - south streets in the low density residential zone per SDC 3.2-215. Lot lof the proposed subdivision is proposed to have 54.19 feet of frontage on 35th Street as opposed to 60 feet, which consulates a 9.68 adjustment to said numeric standard. Proposed Lot l will be 5,000 square feet in area, which complies with the applicable minimum lot size for standard lots on north -south streets in the low density residential zone per SDC 3.2-215. B. if the Minor Variance involves a setback, the plot plan shall be prepared by an Oregon registered surveyor. This minor variance request does not involve a setback, therefore this criterion is not applicable. Regardless, the Land Division Tentative Plan included with this application was prepared by an Oregon registered surveyor. C. The Director may consider additional categories of Minor Variance, on a case by case basis, without the need for an interpretation, as specified in Section 5.11-100. As addressed above, this minor variance request involves adjustment to the numeric standards for lot dimensions pursuant to SDC 5.21-125(A)(2), therefore this criterion is not applicable. Written Narrative Minor Variance Application for Ninth St. Properties, LLC SSW Job #20-7774 Page 2 of 3 D. The Director shall approve the Minor Variance if 1he applicant demonstrates compliance with allof the applicable approval criteria: 1. Locational or dimensional problems have been identified that can be resolved by a Minor Variance; As described in the Project Description above and findings in response to the criteria at SDC 5.21- 125(A)(2), the identified dimensional problem involving street frontage can be resolved by a Minor Variance. 2. The request is the minimum necessary to alleviate the identified dimensional or localional problem; The requested adjustment to street frontage standards is the minimum necessary to alleviate the identified dimensional problem.
