ATTACHMENTS: 1: Location Maps
2: Ordinance with Exhibits
Exhibit A: Annexation Legal Description & Map
Exhibit B: Annexation Application
Exhibit C: Annexation Agreement
Exhibit D: Staff Report
DISCUSSION/ The City Council is authorized by Oregon Revised Statutes (ORS) Chapter 222 and Springfield
FINANCIAL Development Code (SDC) Article 5.7-100 to act on annexation requests. In accordance with SDC 5.7 -
IMPACT: 155 and ORS 222.040, 222.180 and 222.465, if approved the annexation will become effective 30 days
after signature by the Mayor or upon the date of its filing with the Secretary of State as provided by
ORS 222.180, whichever date is later.
The territory requested for annexation is an irregular-shaped parcel on the southeastern edge of the
Mountaingate neighborhood. The parcel has frontage on a stub of Jessica Drive along the
southwestern edge and it contains an existing concrete water reservoir tank within a fenced compound.
The property is zoned and designated for Low Density Residential use with an Urbanizable Fringe
Overlay (UF -10), and it is located inside the City's Urban Growth Boundary (UGB). The property is
contiguous with the Springfield city limits on all sides.
The subject parcel is not within a rural water or fire district so it is not necessary to withdraw the
property from a service district concurrently with annexation to the City.
As outlined in the attached staff report (Attachment 21)), the annexation area can be served with the
minimum level of key urban facilities and services as required in the Springfield 2030 Comprehensive
Plan — Urbanization Element. The attached staff report also confirms the request meets the criteria of
approval for annexations established in Section 5.7-140 of the Springfield Development Code. An
Annexation Agreement has been prepared for review and signature by the Springfield Utility Board
and the City (Attachment 2C), although the applicant is not seeking connection to the City's sanitary
sewer system at this time.
Recommendation: The subject property complies with the standards and provisions of the SDC and
applicable ORS for annexation; Council is requested to conduct the first reading and public hearing of
the ordinance annexing this property to the City and Willamalane Park & Recreation District. Council
is further requested to continue the public hearing to the regular meeting on May 16 to remedy two-
week posted notification requirements of SDC 5.7-130.0 that were not met for this application.

C. Development Objective
The development objective for the existing reservoir site is threefold. One, to continue serving
as a water storage reservoir site; two, the construction of a new, second water storage
reservoir, and three the demolition and replacement of the existing water storage reservoir.
Among other permits and approvals, annexation into the Springfield City Limits is the first step.
II. ANNEXATION — APPROVAL CRITERIA
Annexation Approval Criteria are found in Section 5.7-140 of the Springfield Development Code
(SDG). Applicable sections of the Code are in bold italics followed by proposed findings of facts in
normal text..
SDC 5.7-140. An annexation application may be approved only if the City Council finds that
the proposal conforms to the following criteria:
A. The affected territory proposed to be annexed is within the City's urban growth
boundary; and is contiguous to the city limits; or separated from the City only by a
public right-of-way or a stream, lake or other body of water.
B.
Response: The affected territory is located within the city's urban growth boundary and is
contiguous to the city limits on its northern, southern, eastern, and western boundaries.
Given this, criterion 5.7-140(A) is met.
The proposed annexation is consistent with applicable polices in the Metro Plan and in
any applicable refinement plan or Plan Districts;
Response: The subject property is `
designated Low Density Residential on the
Metro Plan diagram. There are no ; '�
applicable refinement plans or Plan
Districts. Once annexed to the City of q?
Springfield, the Urbanizable Fringe (UF -10)
overlay will no longer apply, and the site
will be zoned Low Density Residential.
Metro Plan Diagram
2010
METRO PLAN: Applicable policies of the Metro Plan are listed below:
C. Growth Management, Goals Findings and Policies:
■ Policy 8a. Land within the UG6 maybe converted from urbanizable to urban only through

Page 3 of 5
elsewhere in this application these key urban facilities and services have been provided
to the subject site in an orderly and efficient manner.
• Policy 1Q. Annexation to a city through normal processes shall continue to be the highest
priority.
Response: Annexation into the corporate limits of the City of Springfield is codified in the
Springfield Development Code {SDC} 5.7-100-5.7-165. Processes and procedures
regarding application, annexation, approval criteria, effective date and notice, and
withdrawal from special districts are, by submittal and processing of this Annexation
Application, being followed.
• Policy 16. Ultimately, land within the UGB shall be annexed to a city and provided with
the required minimum level of urban facilities and services.
Response: The subject site is inside the Springfield's Urban Growth Boundary. By this
Annexation Application herein land within the UGB (the subject site) is being annexed
and as required by applicable approval criteria, will be provided with the minimum level of
urban facilities and services.
• Policy 9 S. As annexations to cities occur over time, existing special service districts within
the UGS shall dissolve. The cities should consider developing intergovernmental
agreements, which address transition issues raised by annexation, with the affected
special service districts.
Response: A special district providing services to the subject property is the Willamalane
Park and Recreation District. Willamalane is not contemplated to dissolve. Willamalane
and the City of Springfield have an intergovernmental agreement regarding property
annexation into the City, therefore, when a property is annexed, annexation into the
Willamalane Park and Recreation District also occurs.
■ Policy 21 a. When unincorporated territory within the UGB is provided with any new urban
service that service shall be provided by the following method.- Annexation to a city.
Response: Existing facilities and services are currently provided to the development site.
Therefore, this Metro Plan policy has already been satisfied.
Given the above, criterion 5.7-140(B) is met.
C. The proposed annexation will result in a boundary in which the minimum level of key
urban facilities and services as defined in the Metro Plan can be provided in an orderly
efficient and timely manner; and
Response: The annexation site can be provided with key urban facilities and services as
defined in the Metro Plan. Facilities and services applicable to the site, including information
regarding providers, existing facilities and service extensions, is provided below:

Sanitary: Sanitary infrastructure is adjacent to the site in both Jessica Drive and
South 661h Place. Should sanitary infrastructure be needed for the subject
property in the future, service would be extended from South 66 Place. This
can occur through the intervening property between South 66th Place and
the site as there is an existing access/utility easement from South 661h
Place to the subject property (confirmed with Staff on 319122).

Water: Paralleling the east property line to South 67th and Ivy, there is a 16" water
line used to fill the reservoir. Water is currently provided by Springfield Utility
Board (SUB) and does not need to be extended.
Electric: Electric infrastructure is adjacent to the subject property along its east
boundary. The existing service would remain.
Streets: South 66th Place and Jessica Drive are local streets. Right-of-way has been
dedicated and the streets have been improved west and southwest of the
subject tax lot in accordance with a prior, unrelated, subdivision and PER
approvals. To create an interconnected transportation system with land uses
in the vicinity of the property, a private 20' wide emergency access easement
and 15' wide slope easement was dedicated on tax lot 18•-02-03-10-00100. If
needed, the emergency access easement will be constructed as part of a
PIP by the future developer of tax iot 18-02-02-00-00402 and can be
extinguished when the lot develops with sufficient access that the easement
is no longer needed.
Given this, criterion 5.7-140(C) is met.
0. Where applicable, fiscal impacts to the City have been mitigated through an Annexation
Agreement or other mechanism approved by the City Council.
Response: Annexation of the subject property into the City of Springfield is not anticipated to
have any fiscal impacts. Therefore, an Annexation Agreement is not required for annexation
of the subject property. Given this, this criterion 5.7-140(D) is met.

Exhibit C, Page 2 of 6
G. A public sanitary sewer system with sufficient capacity to serve the Property and other
existing and proposed land uses in the vicinity of the Property is necessary to support a
finding that this key urban service is available to serve the Property.
• An existing public sanitary sewer system is located approximately 65 feet west of the
Property within Jessica Drive and is also located in S. 66th Place and has sufficient
capacity to serve the Property.
• No connection is needed for the current development proposal of new water reservoirs
on this site, and the applicant is not required to extend physical services for
annexation or the proposed use of water reservoirs.
• SUB owns the intervening property (TL 18-02-03-10-06000 through TL 18-02-03-10-
06200 and TL 18-02-03-10-06400 through TL 18-02-03-10-06500) and is required to
provide a private sewer easement through this property to the subject property to
ensure service can be provided if needed in the future.
• A variable width easement (Record No. 2007-020544) for water line, private access,
and private sewer exists on the referenced tax lots for the benefit of the Property and
satisfies said requirement to provide a private sewer easement.
H. A public stormwater management system with sufficient capacity to serve the Property and
other existing and proposed land uses in the vicinity of the Property is also necessary to
support a finding that this key urban service is available to serve the Property.
• An existing public storm sewer was constructed with the adjacent Mountaingate
Phase 3B Subdivision. This system was sized to accommodate the proposed use
as a water reservoir. The public system connection in Ivy and South 67th
consists of an 18" main and has sufficient capacity for proposed use and the
zoned use as low density residential.
I. An interconnected transportation system with the existing and proposed land uses in the
vicinity of the Property is also required in order to provide access and a transportation
system for the provision of Fire and Life Safety services to and from the annexed property.
• The Property has access to S. 66th Place via a private access easement through tax lot
18-02-03-10-06000, Easement #2007-020544.
• The Property also has frontage on a portion of Jessica Drive, that will need to have a
20 -foot wide gravel emergency access road extended from the existing end to the east
when TL 18-02-02-00-00402 develops before 18-02-03-14-03100 does that will
provide a secondary emergency access to this property.
• An access easement of sufficient width to construct a 20 -foot wide emergency access
and sufficient width slope easement to construct the emergency access will be
required from the end of the existing Jessica Drive will be required. As part of a
previous development, a 20 -foot wide access easement and 15 -foot slope easement
was dedicated from TL 18-02-03-10-00100 (Record No. 2020-056149). To ensure
this emergency access can be constructed a 15 -foot slope easement from the subject
property is required to be along the subject property southern boundary coincident
with the northern boundary of the adjacent TL 18-02-03-10-00100.

Attachment 2, Page 24 of 35
Exhibit C, Page 3 of 6
J. In order to facilitate orderly development of the Property and ensure the full provision of key
urban services that are satisfactory to the City and meet the City's conditions for an
affirmative recommendation for annexation to the Common Council, and in exchange for the
obligations of the City set forth below, APPLICANT shall comply with all requirements
imposed on APPLICANT in this Agreement.
Now, therefore based upon the foregoing Recitals, which are specifically made a part of this
Agreement, the parties agree as follows:
AGREEMENT
1. Obligations of APPLICANT. Consistent with the above Recitals, APPLICANT agrees to

Attachment 2, Page 29 of 35
Exhibit D, Page 2 of 7
Review Process (SDC 5.7-115): The subject annexation request is being reviewed under Type IV procedures,
without Planning Commission consideration.
Development Issues Meeting (SDC 5.7-120): A Development Issues Meeting (DIM) is required of all public
agency and private landowner -initiated annexation applications, unless waived by the Director.
Finding: The property owner submitted an application for a Development Issues Meeting on December 10, 2021
and the meeting was held on January 11, 2022 (File 811 -21 -000318 -PRE). Subsequently, a pre -submittal meeting
for the annexation request was held on March 4, 2022 (File 811 -22 -000056 -PRE).
Conclusion: The requirement in SDC 5.7-120 is met.
Annexation Initiation and Application Submittal (SDC 5.7-125): In accordance with SDC 5.7-125.B.2.b.i
and ORS 222.170(1), an annexation application may be initiated by "more than half the owners of land in the
territory, who also own more than half the land in the contiguous territory and of real property therein representing
more than half the assessed value of all real property in the contiguous territory consent in writing to the annexation
of their land."
Finding: The property owner who owns all of the land and real property, and full assessed value of real
property in the contiguous territory, has filed an application and petition requesting annexation to the City of
Springfield (Attachment 2, Exhibit B).
Conclusion: The application requirements in SDC 5.7-125 have been met.
Site Information: The subject annexation area consists of an irregular-shaped residential parcel that is
approximately 1.77 acres in size and contains an existing 1.5 -million gallon water reservoir tank. The property is
located near the intersection of South 66' Place and Jessica Drive on the southeast edge of the Mountaingate
neighborhood (Mountaingate 2nd Addition subdivision). The subject site is inside the Springfield Urban Growth
Boundary (UGB) and is contiguous to the Springfield city limits on all sides in accordance with SDC 5.7-
140.A.1.
Zoning for the property is Low Density Residential (LDR) with an Urbanizable Fringe Overlay (UF -10) applied.
According to the applicant's submittal, the primary purpose of the annexation request is to facilitate further
development of the site with water utility improvements, including replacement of the existing water reservoir tank.
Both the South 66' Place and Jessica Drive frontages in the vicinity of the property are considered improved to urban
standards and all required public utilities, including sanitary sewer, are available to serve the site. There are
additional considerations for emergency secondary access to vacant property to the east of this site — along the
projected extension of Jessica Drive — so an Annexation Agreement that outlines the applicant's responsibilities for
provision of public streets, utilities, and services to the property and in support of future development of other nearby
properties, has been prepared for this request.
Existing public services are provided to the annexation area as follows: police (Lane County Sheriff), schools
(Springfield School District), roads (City of Springfield), and Fire (Eugene -Springfield Fire). Springfield Utility
Board (SUB) operates the existing water utility infrastructure on the subject property and adjacent lots to the west
and south. There is no rural water service for unincorporated properties in the vicinity of this site. Upon annexation,
the City of Springfield will be responsible for all urban services, including sanitary sewer, water (through SUB),
electricity (through SUB), and police/fire response to the subject area.
Notice Requirements (SDC 5.7-130): Consistent with SDC 5.7-130, notice was provided as follows:
Mailed Notice. Notice of the annexation application was mailed April 11, 2022, which is at least 14 days prior to
the public hearing date, to the affected property owner(s); owners and occupants of properties located within 300
feet of the perimeter of the proposed annexation territory; affected special districts and all other public utility
providers; and the Lane County Land Management Division, Lane County Elections, and the Lane County Board of
Commissioners. The list of recipients of the mailed notice is included with the Affidavit of Mailing for this
Attachment 2, Page 30 of 35
Exhibit D, Page 3 of 7
annexation application and is retained as part of the public record for Planning File 811-22-000074-TYP4.
Newspaper Notice. Notice of the May 2, 2022 public hearing was published in The Register -Guard on April 22
& 29, 2022 The notification meets the requirements of SDC 5.7-130.B for two consecutive notices in the two-week
period before the hearing, but the initial notification was not provided at least two weeks prior to the hearing date.
Staff is recommending continuance of the public hearing to the regular meeting on May 16, 2022 to remedy the
newspaper notice deficiency. Additional legal notification regarding the continued public hearing, should Council
accept this recommendation, will be provided in the newspaper in advance of the May 16 meeting.
Posted Notice. Notice of the May 2, 2022 public hearing was posted in three public places in the City: along both
the South 66t' Place and Jessica Drive frontages near the property; and on the electronic display in the foyer of the
Development & Public Works office - all on April 19, 2022. Notice was also provided on the City of Springfield
website. The timing of posted notices do not meet the two-week posted notice requirements of SDC 5.7-130.C.
Staff is recommending continuance of the public hearing to the regular meeting on May 16, 2022 to remedy the
posted notice deficiency.
Finding: Upon annexation of the subject territory to the City, the underlying Low Density Residential zoning will
be retained, but the Urbanizable Fringe Overlay District (UF -10) will no longer apply. Due to this change, the
Oregon Department of Land Conservation and Development (DLCD) was notified in writing of the annexation
proceedings prior to the public hearing. Notification to DLCD regarding the proposed annexation was sent on
March 23, 2022, which is 40 days prior to the initial public hearing on the matter.
Conclusion: Notice of the public hearing was not provided consistent with SDC 5.7-130. Staff is recommending
continuance of the public hearing to remedy the notification deficiencies. Additionally, should Council choose to
continue the public hearing, staff is recommending a newspaper notice advising of the continued public hearing to
be run in the period between the May 2 and May 16 meetings.
Recommendation to City Council (SDC 5.7-135): The Director shall forward a written recommendation on the
annexation application to the City Council based on the approval criteria specified in Section 5.7-140, which are
provided as follows with the SDC requirements, findings, and conclusions. The Director's recommendation follows
SDC 5.7-140, Criteria.
Criteria (SDC 5.7-140): The application may be approved only if the City Council finds that the proposal conforms
to the following criteria:
A. The affected territory proposed to be annexed is within the City's urban growth boundary; and is
1. Contiguous to the city limits; or
2. Separated from the City only by a public right of way or a stream, lake or other body of water.
Finding: The subject annexation territory is located within the acknowledged urban growth boundary (UGB) of the
City of Springfield (see additional discussion in Subsection B below). The property requested for annexation abuts
the Springfield city limits on all sides. Therefore, this annexation application meets the statutory definition of
contiguity as found in ORS 222.111(1).
Conclusion: The proposal meets and complies with Criterion A(1), Subsection 5.7-140.
B. The proposed annexation is consistent with applicable policies in the Metro Plan and in any applicable
refinement plans or Plan Districts;
Finding: The Metro Plan was acknowledged by the Land Conservation and Development Commission (LCDC) in
August, 1982 and has been subsequently amended. The original Metro Plan UGB encompassed both Eugene and
Springfield, with I-5 being the acknowledged boundary between Eugene and Springfield. With the passage of House
Bill 3337 in 2007 and adoption of Ordinance 6268 in 2011, a separate and distinct UGB was created for Springfield
using a tax lot by tax lot delineation. Springfield's UGB as delineated by Ordinance 6268 was subsequently
revised and expanded upon adoption of Ordinance 6361 in 2016. The revised and expanded UGB is delineated
Attachment 2, Page 31 of 35
Exhibit D, Page 4 of 7
on an individual tax lot basis and has been acknowledged by LCDC. Territory within the acknowledged UGB
ultimately will be within the City of Springfield.
Finding: In December 2016, Springfield adopted the Springfield 2030 Comprehensive Plan - Urbanization Element
as a component of Springfield's comprehensive plan in compliance with Statewide Planning Goal 14,
Urbanization. The Urbanization Element explicitly retains the Metro Plan's long-standing urbanization policy
criteria for approving annexations. The Urbanization Element has been acknowledged by LCDC.
Finding: The territory requested for annexation is within an area that is zoned and designated for Low Density
Residential (LDR) use. The adopted elements of the Springfield 2030 Comprehensive Plan apply to areas within
the Springfield UGB, particularly the Urbanization Element adopted by Ordinance 6361. At present, there are
no proposed changes to the zoning or plan designation for the property, although the Urbanizable Fringe (UF -10)
overlay will be effectively removed upon annexation.
Finding: The continued annexation of properties to the City of Springfield is consistent with Policy 29 of the
Springfield 2030 Comprehensive Plan — Urbanization Element which specifies annexation as the preferred
mechanism for provision of urban services to properties within the UGB, which will result in the elimination of
special districts within the urbanizable area.
Finding: More detailed discussion of Public Facilities and Services in the Metro Plan (Section III -G) and the Eugene -
Springfield Metropolitan Area Public Facilities and Services Plan (PFSP) — a refinement plan of the Metro Plan —
contemplates eventual elimination of special service districts within each city's UGB as annexation occurs
incrementally. Policy G.9 of the Eugene -Springfield PFSP states that Eugene and Springfield and their respective
utility branches, Eugene Water & Electric Board (EWEB) and Springfield Utility Board (SUB), shall ultimately be
the water service providers within their respective urban growth boundary. The requested annexation is consistent
with this adopted policy.
Finding: The subject property is part of the 3' Level water system facilities operated by SUB. In addition to the
water reservoir tank on the site, SUB operates a pump station on the adjoining properties to the west. Planned
improvements to the 3' Level water facilities are listed on Table 14 and depicted on Map 8 of the adopted PFSP.
Finding: In accordance with Policy 33 of the Springfield 2030 Comprehensive Plan — Urbanization Element, SUB
is the exclusive water service provider within the Springfield city limits. There is no rural water district serving
unincorporated properties in this area of south Springfield. SUB will continue to operate the existing water system
facilities on the property upon annexation.
Finding: In accordance with Policy 34 of the Springfield 2030 Comprehensive Plan — Urbanization Element, when
unincorporated territory within the UGB is provided with any new urban service, that service shall be provided by
one of the following methods in this priority order: a) Annexation to City; or b) Contractual annexation agreements
with City.
Finding: In accordance with Policy 35 of the Springfield 2030 Comprehensive Plan — Urbanization Element, the
City shall not extend water or wastewater service outside city limits to serve a residence or business without first
obtaining a valid annexation petition, a consent to annex agreement, or when a health hazard abatement annexation
is required.
Finding: The requested annexation is to facilitate further development of the property with 3rd Level water system
improvements, including planned replacement of the existing water reservoir tank. It is not anticipated that sanitary
sewer service will be required for the unmanned water utility installation when the project is completed. However,
an existing joint access and utility easement that runs from South 66t' Place to the subject property (across intervening
lots also owned by SUB) can be used for legal and physical provision of a sanitary sewer connection if it is required
in the future.
Finding: The applicant has submitted an application for annexation to the City (Attachment 2, Exhibit B), and has
reviewed the Annexation Agreement prepared by City staff (Attachment 2, Exhibit Q. The Annexation Agreement
has been revised and updated by SUB and staff but the version signed by the applicant was not available at the time
Attachment 2, Page 32 of 35
Exhibit D, Page 5 of 7
of Council packet preparation. The executed Annexation Agreement will be provided to the City Council prior to
second reading and adoption of the Ordinance.
Finding: The applicant will be responsible for paying applicable fees and System Development Charges (SDCs) and
obtaining any necessary permits for connecting the planned water system facilities to the City's utility infrastructure.
Because all other required public utilities are available to serve the property and the public street frontages have been
improved to urban standards, staff advises that no Annexation Agreement provisions for off-site improvements are
warranted for this request.
Conclusion: The proposal meets and complies with Criterion B, Subsection 5.7-140.
C. The proposed annexation will result in a boundary in which the minimum level of key urban facilities
and services as defined in the Metro Plan can be provided in an orderly efficient and timely manner; and
Finding: In accordance with Policy 29 of the Springfield 2030 Comprehensive Plan — Urbanization Element,
annexation shall continue to be a prerequisite for urban development and the delivery of City services in accordance
with the Springfield Comprehensive Plan and Springfield Development Code.
Finding: In accordance with Policy 31 of the Springfield 2030 Comprehensive Plan — Urbanization Element, key
urban facilities and services are defined as wastewater service; stormwater service; transportation; solid waste
management; water service; fire and emergency medical services; police protection; citywide park and recreation
programs; electric service; land use controls; communication facilities; and public schools on a districtwide basis.
Finding: In accordance with Policy 32 of the Springfield 2030 Comprehensive Plan — Urbanization Element, urban
services provided by the City upon annexation to Springfield include storm and sanitary sewer; water; transportation
systems; police and fire protection; planning, building, code enforcement and library services; and public
infrastructure maintenance of City owned or operated facilities.
Finding: The territory requested for annexation is contiguous with the City limits line along all sides. Urban utilities
have been extended along adjacent public streets and are available to serve the subject property, adjacent properties,
and areas beyond the annexation territory. Therefore, the urban service delivery systems are already available and
in place or can be logically extended from points in the vicinity to serve the subject property. In addition to urban
utilities, the following facilities and services are either available or can be extended to this annexation area:
Water — The Springfield Utility Board operates the public water utility system within incorporated areas of south
Springfield. As noted above, SUB is the exclusive water service provider for properties within the City limits. Upon
annexation, SUB intends to develop the site with additional water system facilities.
Electricity — SUB provides electric service to the neighborhoods in southeast Springfield that are north of the Mt.
Vernon Road alignment. SUB owns and maintains electrical system infrastructure within the public street frontages of
the property. Existing electrical system infrastructure within the public rights-of-way will continue to be maintained
by the affected utility provider.
Police Services — Springfield Police Department currently provides service to areas of south Springfield that are
already inside the City limits. The annexation territory is currently within the jurisdiction of the Lane County
Sheriff's Department although it is surrounded by the City limits. Upon annexation, this area will receive Springfield
Police services on an equal basis with other properties inside the City.
Fire and Emergency Services — By default, fire protection is currently provided to the annexation area by Eugene
Springfield Fire Department as there is no rural fire service provider covering this specific area. Upon annexation,
the Eugene Springfield Fire Department will continue to provide fire and emergency services to the subject territory.
Emergency medical transport (ambulance) services are provided on a metro -wide basis by the Eugene Springfield
Fire Department. The annexation area will continue to receive this service consistent with the adopted ambulance
service area (ASA) plan. Mutual aid agreements have been adopted by the three regional ASA providers to provide
Attachment 2, Page 33 of 35
Exhibit D, Page 6 of 7
backup coverage for each other's jurisdictions.
Parks and Recreation — Park and recreation services are provided to the City of Springfield by the Willamalane
Park & Recreation District. The park district operates several indoor recreation facilities, such as the Willamalane
Park Swim Center, Lively Park Swim Center, Bob Keefer Center for Sports and Recreation, and Willamalane Adult
Activity Center. The park district offers various after-school and other programs for children at schools and parks
throughout the community. Also available are pathways and several categories of parks, including community parks,
sports parks, special use parks, and natural area parks.
Concurrent with annexation to the City of Springfield, the subject property will be annexed to the Willamalane Park
& Recreation District consistent with City policy, an intergovernmental agreement between the City of Springfield
and Lane County, and the adopted Willamalane Comprehensive Plan.
Library Services — Upon annexation to the City of Springfield, the subject area will be served by the Springfield
Public Library.
Schools — The Springfield School District serves this area of southeast Springfield. Based on the existing
and anticipated long-term use of the subject property as a water utility installation, it is not expected that
the annexation territory will sustain permanent residents or generate a school-age population in the future. The
Springfield School District has capacity to serve the annexation area in its current configuration, and in the event the
property redevelops in the future.
Sanitary Sewer — The annexation territory has access to existing public sanitary sewer lines along the South 661
Street frontage to the west of the site. It is not expected that the existing or future water system facilities on the site
will require connection to sanitary sewer. However, connection points are available if it is required to serve the
annexation territory in the future.
Stormwater — The subject annexation territory is served by the public stormwater management system located in
South 66' Place. With further development or redevelopment of the site in the future, on-site stormwater facilities will
need to be constructed to direct runoff to the public system. Review and approval of private stormwater facilities necessary
to serve the property will be done in conjunction with approval of a Site Plan for water system improvements.
Streets — The extreme southwestern boundary of the subject annexation area abuts a stub of Jessica Drive, which
has been developed to urban standards with curb, gutter, paving, sidewalks, street lights, sanitary sewer, and piped
stormwater facilities. Jessica Drive and nearby South 66' Place are classified as local streets and are developed
with one vehicle travel lane in each direction. The pavement width also allows for vehicle parking on both sides
of the street.
Solid Waste Mana eg ment — The City and Sanipac have an exclusive franchise arrangement for garbage service inside
the City limits. Upon annexation, solid waste disposal service would be provided by Sanipac.
Communication Facilities — Various providers offer both wired and wireless communication services in the Eugene -
Springfield metropolitan area. Existing providers and those entering the market have the capability to provide
service to this area.
Land Use Controls — The annexation area is within Springfield's urban growth boundary. Through an
intergovernmental agreement between Lane County and the City of Springfield, the City already has planning and
building jurisdiction for unincorporated areas of Springfield. The City will continue to administer land use controls
after annexation.
Finding: The minimum level of key urban facilities and services, as outlined in the Springfield 2030
Comprehensive Plan — Urbanization Element are immediately available to the site.
Conclusion: The proposal meets and complies with Criterion C, Subsection 5.7-140.

D. Where applicable, fiscal impacts to the City have been mitigated through an Annexation Agreement or
other mechanism approved by the City Council.
Finding: The area proposed for annexation is a utility parcel containing an existing water reservoir tank. The
Annexation Agreement provides for contingencies in the event that secondary emergency access is required from
the stub of Jessica Drive along the southern edge of the property, and if sanitary sewer service is needed for the
property in the future. An Annexation Agreement that spells out the timing and financial responsibility for these
off-site improvements has been prepared for signature by the City and SUB.
Conclusion: The proposal meets and complies with Criterion D, Subsection 5.7-140.
City Council Decision (SDC 5.7-145): City Council approval of the annexation application shall be by
Ordinance.
Finding: The City Council is scheduled to give first reading of the Annexation Ordinance and hold a Public
Hearing on May 2, 2022 for the subject annexation request. Based on the staff analysis and recommendations, and
on testimony provided at the Public Hearing, the City Council may take action to approve, modify, or deny the
Annexation Ordinance at a subsequent meeting, currently scheduled for May 16, 2022.
Zoning (SDC 5.7-150): The area requested for annexation is zoned and designated Low Density Residential (LDR)
in accordance with the Springfield Zoning Map and the adopted Metro Plan diagram. Properties that are outside
the City limits have the Urbanizable Fringe Overlay District (UF -10) applied to the zoning. Upon the effective date
of the annexation, the OF -10 overlay will be automatically removed and the property will retain the LDR zoning.
In accordance with SDC 3.2-210 and 4.7-160.A, high impact public utility installations are allowable in residential
districts if they are shown on the adopted PFSP diagram. The subject water utility installation is depicted on Map 8
of the adopted PFSP.
Effective Date and Notice of Approved Annexation (SDC 5.7-155): The subject annexation request is being
presented to the City Council for consideration at an initial public hearing meeting on May 2, 2022. Second reading and
potential adoption of the annexation Ordinance is scheduled for May 16, 2022. Therefore, if the annexation is adopted
after a second reading on May 16, 2022, the Ordinance will become effective 30 days later (on June 15, 2022), or
upon acknowledgement of filing with the Secretary of State — whichever date is later.
Finding: The annexation area is within the delineated service territory of SUB (electric and water) but is not actively
served by a rural fire district. The Cities of Eugene/Springfield will continue to provide fire and emergency
services after annexation, and the City of Springfield by and through the Springfield Utility Board will continue
to provide water service after annexation. Consistent with SDC 5.7-160, notice was provided for the public hearing
on May 2, 2022.
DIRECTOR'S RECOMMENDATION: The proposal complies with the annexation criteria of approval
listed in SDC 5.7-140, and Council is within its authority to approve annexation of the subject territory to the
City of Springfield and Willamalane Park and Recreation District. To remedy the posted and newspaper
notice requirements of SDC 5.7-130.0 that were not met for this annexation application, the Council is
requested to continue the public hearing to the regular meeting on May 16, 2022.
