The applicant is exploring how many townhomes are allowed on these tax lots based on the current code and what will be allowed as a result of HB 2001 and 2003 at a minimum. We request at a minimum, staff members from planning, fire, and public works to attend the meeting. Please do not hesitate to invite additional staff members to attend the meeting in order to adequately address the questions. SITE INFORMATION Tax Lots: Lane County records identify parcels as Lane County Assessor's Map 17-0335-33, Tax Lots 5000 and 4900 (the "site"). 541 .687,1010 1132 EAST BROADWAY, SUITE 2001 EUGENE, OREGON 97401 1 TBG ARCH.CDM City of Springfield April 26, 2021 Page 2 of 4 Location/Access: Currently, there is not an improved access connection to the site, which is located on South F Street (unimproved) between South 2nd (no current access and there is a significant grade change) and South 3'd Streets (unimproved) in Springfield, Oregon. South 2nd Street is a minor collector street, and the other streets are classified as local streets. Acreaoe: The site is about 0.57 acres according to the County Assessment and Taxation records. Tax Lot 4900 is about 0.38 acres or 16,553 square feet and Tax Lot 5000 is about 0.19 acres or 8,276 square feet. Ownership: The site is currently owned by Shannon Hancock, Shannon. Plan Land Use Desionation: The site is located at the southern edge of the Springfield City limits. The southern portion of Tax Lot 4900 is located outside of the City limits so Tax Lot 4900 will require an Annexation application. Tax Lot 5000 was annexed to the City of Springfield in 1909. Both parcels are designated Low Density Residential (LDR) on the Metro Plan Diagram. Zoning and Surrounding Land Uses: The site is zoned LDR. LDR zoning and uses surround the site. On the west side of the site, across South 2nd Street, is property zoned and used for industrial activity. DIM QUESTIONS (Questions In Bold) Planning: • It is our understanding that an Annexation application will be required for Tax Lot 4900. Please confirm that this interpretation is correct. o Please also confirm that aside from the Annexation application, there are no other land use applications required as part of bringing Tax Lot 4900 into the City limits. o Can Tax Lots 5100 and 4900 be proposed for annexation in the same Annexation application? o If the applicant does not purchase Tax Lots 5000, 4900 and 5100, can Tax Lots 5100 and 4900 be proposed for annexation in the same Annexation application even with two different owners as long as both owners sign the application and any other required documents? • Please confirm the two tax lots are zoned LDR and are considered corner lots. • Current density allowance: o Tax Lot 5000 is about 0.19 acres or 8,276 square feet (about 63'x 132'). Please confirm that the current code allows 2 to 3 units based on the LDR density allowance assuming all other applicable code requirements are met. Therefore, theoretically as long as other applicable standards can be met, two townhomes (duplex) and a single detached unit could be developed on this parcel. Please confirm. City of Springfield April 26, 2021 Page 3 of 4 o Tax Lot 4900 is about 0.38 acres or 16,553 square feet (about 127' x 130'). Please confirm that the current code allows 3 to 5 units based on the LDR density allowance assuming all other applicable code requirements are met. Therefore, theoretically as long as other applicable standards can be met, 2 sets of 2 townhomes (or 2 duplexes) and a single detached unit could be developed on this parcel. Please confirm. o Please confirm that the applicant can choose to maintain the existing lot configuration and not create individual lots for each dwelling for the above theoretical options. o Is it possible to consider the two parcels as one development site in its current configuration totaling about 0.57 acres, which would allow up to 8 units based on the LDR density allowance, assuming all other applicable land use and building permit code requirements are met? Therefore, theoretically as long as other applicable standards can be met, 4 sets of townhomes (4 duplexes) could be developed on this parcel. • If not, please clarify if a property line adjustment (assuming that two parcels would be maintained but just reconfigured) or partition application would be required (assuming that the two parcels would be proposed to be one parcel). • Please confirm that a Site Plan Review or a Discretionary Use Type III land use application will not be required to develop these parcels based on the theoretical options above. The applicant understands that a development proposal such as townhome duplexes are subject to the design standards of SDC 4.7-142. o As part of the code updates required to comply with HB 2001/2003, will SDC 4.7-142 be impacted? If yes, can you please explain with the understanding that this update process will not be complete until mid -year 2022? • At this point, except for cottage clusters, triplexes, quads, townhouses (more than 2) and other middle housing types are not allowed in the LDR zone. Please explain how this will likely change in the updated development code being drafted in compliance with HB 2001/20035 which would go into effect June 2022. o For instance, could the applicant theoretically develop 8 attached townhomes on the development site assuming all other applicable code requirements are met? 2. Transportation: • Due to the fact that there are no adjacent developed right-of-ways adjacent to these subject parcels (except South 2^d Street with a significant grade change) please explain the right-of-ways that would be required to be constructed in order to develop these parcels and who would be responsible for the design and construction of the right-of- ways. o Is there an existing Local Improvement District (LID) or similar and if not, would a LID be established for the right-of-way(s)? Please explain this process, potential cost, and implications to the applicant. o Will the City design and construct the right-of-way extension(s)? City of Springfield April 26, 2021 Page 4 of 4 o If the applicant is required to submit a PIP to design and construct a right-of-way(s) to provide access to the subject parcels, please explain the improvements required. 3. Public Works/Fire: • Please explain off-site or public utility improvements anticipated to be required to develop these parcels. o Is there an existing LID and if not, would a LID be established for the public utility extensions? Please explain this process, potential costs, and implications to the applicant. o Will the City design and construct the public utility extensions? o If the applicant is required to submit a PIP to design and construct the public utility extensions to serve the subject parcels, please explain the improvements required. • Are there any known capacity deficiencies in the existing City's main public service lines for water, stormwater, and sanitary sewer that would serve the site? o What are the preferred connection points for the extended public utilities? • Is a new public fire hydrant required to serve these parcels or is there an existing fire hydrant that can adequately serve the site? 4. In general, are City staff aware of any issues or concerns regarding residential development on this site? Thank you for your time and effort in clarifying these questions so that we can proceed smoothly with the development of this proposed project.
