REQUIRED STORMWATER SCOPING SHEET USE POLICY:
In October 2003, Springfield Public Works released a trial "stonnwater scoping sheet," provided to help
engineers and developers meet stormwater requirements in the Springfield Development Code (SDC) and
Engineering Design Standards and Procedures Manual (EDSPM). After a five month trial period, it became
apparent that users of the scoping sheet submitted much more complete applications than non-users. An added
bonus was a decrease in the overall review time spent on the applications, resulting in quicker notice of
decisions.
As a result of the benefits of the scoping sheets, the City has decided to make their use a mandatory process.
Current city policy is that the use of stormwater scoping sheets is required for all applications which require
development review. All applications submitted to the City shall provide a copy of a completed stormwater
scoping sheet with the application packet. Attached with this letter is the latest version of the scoping sheet,
which reflects changes requested by the development community.
PLEASE NOTE: SUBMITTED APPLICATIONS WILL NOW BE REQUIRED TO SUBMIT A
COMPLETED STORMWATER SCOPING SHEET, STORMWATER STUDY AND PLANS IN
CONFORMANCE WITH THE SCOPE REQUIREMENTS
U 17 rrrrr 31b4LCeI91 ri7 V,P"IN N:1
1.) Obtain scoping sheet from application packet, city website, or other location.
2.) Fill out project information (top half of front sheet) prior to commencement of work on stormwater study.
(Note: Do not sign scoping sheet until it is received from the City with requirements checked.)
3.) Mail, fax, or email all pages to: City of Springfield, Development and Public Works Dept., Attu: Clayton
McEachem.
4.) Receive completed scoping sheet (filled out by the City) indicating minimum requirements for a complete
stormwater study.
5.) Include four (4) copies of complete scoping sheet (signed by engineer at the bottom of page 2), stormwater
study and plans that comply with the minimum required scope with submittal of application packet. The
scoping sheet shall be included as an attachment, inside the front cover of the stormwater study.
Stormwater scoping sheets can be found with all application packets (City website and the DPW front counter)
as well as on the Engineering and Construction Resources webpage located at: httv://www.springfield-

This memo is intended to serve as a reference for any items discussed in the completeness
review of this project. Below will include responses to each of the planning and public works
comments. In bo/d/ita/ies text will be city comments and responses will be in plain text.
Planning Notes
Provide an &5x 11"reduced copy of the Site Plan
Response: An 8.5 x 11 reduced copy of the site plan is attached. (See Proposed plan as a PING
file)
2. No Title Report provided must not be older than 30 days at the time of
application.
Response: A title report has now been obtained and is attached with this memo.
3. Narrative must address Site Plan ReviewApprovalStandards SDC S 17.125. The
provided narrative discusses Nadal Development Overlay which is not
applicable to this development
Response: Updated the written statement to address this criterion.
A 20 -Year Time of Travel Zone for the Weyerhaeuser welKield
Response: Added a note to both the existing conditions and proposed site plan sheets that
states that the 20 -year time of travel zone covers the entire site.
S. Prepare a0required plans per the Submittal Standards of SDC 5.17.115
Response:
11Pa g
Site plans are prepared per the standards from SDC 5.17.115. General requirements are met for
the plans, including being drawn to scale, notes for tax lot ownership, and acreage provided.
Existing conditions sheet has widths of sidewalks, streets, and easements. The time oft rave I
zone is also now included on the existing conditions sheet. Attached with this memo is a prior
existing conditions sheet which outlines existing buildings and other conditions of the site when
Nations took over. The proposed site plan includes all current existing conditions and two grassy
swales as those are the only proposed improvements. Details and planting plans for the swales
are attached. The applicant proposes an exception for portions of the landscape plan standards
as the owner has put in valuable time into creating more artistic frontage (this is addressed
below). Existing utilities are shown on existing and proposed site plans and no future
connections are proposed. Per the requirements of a stormwater management and planting
plan, this application now includes details for the construction and planting of the proposed
grassy swales. Access, circulation, and parking are existing conditions which are shown on both
the proposed and existing sheets.
Add] Notes
Best representation of how the site existed when Nations Mini Mix took aver the
site.
Response: Attached with this site is a prior existing conditions sheet with best representation of
the site when Nations took ownership.
Paved vehicleparking for employees and designated vehicle route to the required
parking.
Response: Paved parking exists on both tax lots of this site. The vehicle route and circulation
allow for travel to and from the site.
Remove paving in the required 5'setback along the entire frontage and provide
landscaping per SDC 4.4.705,
Response: The owner has dedicated effort and resources to make the front area of the property
presentable. This artistic and unique paved landscaped area only improves the existing
sidewalk area. Further (and this relates to the next item below) there is a 10' SUB electric
easement over the entirety of the 5' setback area (see attached drawing) and setback
sidewalks to the east and west. So, at minimum there isn't a sufficient area for a street
tree, either, and it isn't a great (or even feasible) are for planting and irrigation to occur.
The applicant respectfully requests that flexibility be applied to this section and would be
happy to go through a variance or other City process to formalize keeping this area "as
is."
2 1 P a g
Further, it looks like we may be eligible for an exemption to this standard as per SDC
4.4.105(H) as there is a 6' site obscuring fence on our property abutting the landscape
area.
Plantstreet trees in the planterstro between the sidewalk and street.
Response: As requested above, the applicant is asking for an exception to this landscape
requirement. The location of the SUB easement (see attached drawing) within the prescribed
planting area would preclude a street tree at this location.
Contain all stormwater on-site, discharge to neighboring properties is not
permitted and discharge to the wet/and area to the north is definitely not
permitted.
Response: Two proposed grassy swales are now shown on the proposed plan. These swales will
help detain stormwater on site and prevent sediment discharge onto neighboring
properties.
Eliminate sediment drag into the right of way which may require additional on-site
paving.
Response: Currently the owner has weekly scheduled clean-ups with a street sweeper. The two
new grassy swales combined with this current arrangement will prevent any sediment drag from
existing onto the right-of-way.
Public Works Notes.,
1. No existing site condition plan is shown. It will need to show storm drainage
locations and grading slope; sewer access points (and lines if known) and the
other items listed on this form.
Response: The owner's recollection of the site in conjunction with the 2000 planimetric from
the City provides a best representation of the existing conditions. (See Prior Existing
Conditions sheet as well as Existing Conditions sheet)
2. There is an existing sewer easement along the south and east boundary of 813 53'd
Response: Easements have been identified and added to the attached existing conditions
sheet.
31 Pa g
3. The utility pole at the southwest corner of the site does not have alight the light s
across the street on a different pole. there is no apparent pole on the thatsame
parking lot driveway interior to the lot
Response: The utility pole on the southwest corner has been updated. Streetlight across the
street has also been included on the site plans. (See either the existing conditions or
proposed plan sheets)
4 Public Storm drain notshown in S3id of G St No mfeinalstorm orsanitaryfine
shown.
Response: Public Storm drain along G & 53`d street is show on the attached site plan. (See
any of the three attached sheets)
S. Street trees along G Stam required
Response: As mentioned above, the applicant is requesting an exception or variance to allow
for the current landscape and sidewalk area to remain. This area does not impact any
surrounding features, and if anything provides a more appealing curbside view with the
artistic elements. It is also noted that this site has an easement which prevents any street
trees from being placed within the SUB electric easement that covers the setback area (see
attached drawing). Adjacent to this easement is a setback sidewalk which is continued along
the existing street. These two factors combined with previous time and effort put into
creating a presentable frontage are why the applicant requests requirement be an exception
and will happily apply for a variance or other necessary city process to allow this exception.
6. No storm drain provisions are shown. In the overhead photo it appears that the
site is currency overflowing onto adjacent property and leaving significant
sediment on the neighboring storage site driveway. At the least mechanical storm
drain (probably catch basin filters?) will be required to be installed on site and
measures taken to contain all runoff and sediment on site, including any runoff
leaving overland to the north to the channellwetland along Highway 126.
Response: Currently sto rmwater runoff exits the site mainly to the south into G
Street into the existing storm system. Our proposal is to intercept the
stormwater into a grassy swale to minimize sediment leaving the site (see
attached proposed site plan & grassy swale detail) with an overflow to the catch basin in G
Street. The proposal now also includes a grassy swale in the northeast corner as well to
mitigate any runoff leaving north of the property.

the damaged stormwater manhole at the g St driveway needs to be repaired and the curb
line changed to move it out of the driveway path.
Response: The applicant requests this become a condition of approval. The stormwater manhole
will be repaired, and curb line adjusted as the owner is available to make such changes.

Background:
This application is for a site review of a property located at Map & Tax Lots 17-02-33-21-00800/01203/01204. The
applicant is submitting this application to meet code compliance for Case#: 811 -21 -000291 -COD. Prior use on this site
was a logging operation, and the existing conditions sheet depicts this. The existing use (since 2006) is a concrete
company (Nation's Mini Mix). The current user has been an integral part of the community for years, paying City taxes
and providing jobs and concrete services areawide.
Below includes applicable Site Review standards from Springfield Development Code (SDC) written in bold/italic text,
and response written in plain text.
SDC 5.17.125 Approval Standards
(A) The Director must approve, approve with conditions, or deny a proposed Site Plan Review application
based on the following standards:
(I) The proposed land use is a permitted use or is allowed as a discretionary use in the land use district
Response: The site is zoned LMI (Light -medium industrial) which conforms to the current use of the site as a concrete
facility.
(2) If a use is allowed as a discretionary use, in addition to meeting the standards below, a Discretionary
Use application must be approved in conformance with the standards in SDC 5.9.100.
Response: The use is not a discretionary use therefore this section is not applicable.
(3) The proposal complies with the standards of the land use district of the subject property,
Response: The sites district is zoned for Light -medium industrial, and the existing uses of the property fit into this
category therefore this criterion is met.
(4) The proposal complies with any applicable approved master plan, master facilities plan, refinement
plan, and/or special planned district.
Response: There are no special planned districts for this subject property. The site complies with the Springfield master
plan and facilities plan by updating the site to treat stormwater runoff by including two detention facilities (grassy
swales). The site already provides adequate transportation to and from the site which comply to City Street standards
and pedestrian sidewalk standards.
(5) The proposal complies with the applicable sections of SDC 4.2, Infrastructure Standards -Transportation.
Response: As previously mentioned, the site meets the requirements for transportation given the existing travel
patterns adjacent to the site. For example, the sidewalk was previously paved by the owner to prevent off-street parking
which impacted pedestrian travel along 53r° street.
21 Pa g
SDC 4.2.120 Site Access and Driveway Standards.
(A) Site Access and Driveways—General.
(I) All developed lots or parcels are entitled to 1 approved driveway access
provided by either direct access to a:
(a) Public street or alley along the frontage of the property
Response: The subject property takes access from 53rd street with shared driveway access for both corner lots.
SDC 4.2135 Sidewalks.
(A) Sidewalks and planter strips abutting public streets must be located wholly within the
public street right -of --way. Alternatively, the applicant may propose a design that does
not meet this standard, subject to Director approval through a Type 2 approval process.
In approving an alternative, the Director may require alternative setbacks or driveway
paving requirements that reflect the altered position and location of the sidewalk.
(6) Sidewalks must be designed, constructed, replaced, or repaired as specified in
the Engineering Design Standards and Procedures Manual, the Development & Public
Works Standard Construction Specifications, and the Springfield Municipal Code.
Response: Sidewalks have already been constructed and developed to Springfields standards. However, the applicant
has already designed and developed a planting strip in this area which does not meet city standards. Currently the
planter area is developed with concrete and turf in the setback between the sidewalk and the property line. The space
between 5V Street and the sidewalk is red rock landscape material. The applicant requests the Director exempt this
design through this Type 2 site review application.
(6) The proposal complies with the applicable sections of SDC 4.3, Infrastructure Standards -Utilities.
SDC 4.3. 105 Sanitary Sewer.
(F) The sanitary sewer system must be separated from any stormwater sewer system
Response: The Sanitary sewer system is existing and shown on the site plans along 53rd street. The wastewater is
separate from any stormwater system.
SDC 4.3.110 Stormwater Management.
(A) Stormwater Management Improvements—General Standards.
Response: Stormwater management is proposed to be developed and maintained through a form of on-site detention to
mitigate any sediment runoff onto neighboring properties (See attached site plans). This includes two grassy swales on
the southwest and northeast sides of the property. There are no riparian waterways and therefore this section does not
need to be addressed.
31 Pa g
SDC 4.3.117 Natural Resource Protection Areas.
Response: There are no natural features or resource protection areas located on this site. There is a small cluster of
trees on the north side adjacent to the property. This small barrier / forested area is subject to runoff from the pump
house. The inclusion of a grassy swale will help alleviate any of this runoff leaving the northeast corner of the lot.
SDC 4.3.120 Utility Provider Coordination.
(A) All utility providers are responsible for coordinating utility installations with the City
and the developer through the Development Review Committee or by separate written
correspondence.
(B) The developer is responsible for the design, installation and cost of utility lines and
facilities to the satisfaction of the utility provider. (6443)
Response: SUB is the utility provider for this site and design for stormwater utilities are shown on the landscape plan.
Underground utilities are shown along 53'd street. There is no proposal for further development to impact utilities
outside of the addition of two grassy swales.
SDC 4.3.140 Public Easements.
(A) Utility Easements The applicant must make arrangements with the City and each utility
provider for the dedication of utility easements necessary to fully service the development or
land beyond the development area, as necessary. Public utility easements must be shown on
plat or in a form approved by the City Attorney, and must meet the following standards:
(I) The minimum width for public utility easements adjacent to collector and
arterial streets is 10 feet.
(2) The minimum width for sewer easements is 5 feet on either side of sewer line
for sewers less than 12 inches diameter and less than 5 feet of cover, and 7
feet on either side of the sewer line for sewers greater than 12 inches diameter
or with greater than 5 feet of cover.
(3) The minimum width for all other public utility easements is 7feet.
(4) Notwithstanding the above standards, the utility provider or the Director may
require a larger easement for major water mains, major electric power
transmission lines, stormwater management systems or in any other situation
to allow maintenance vehicles to set up and perform the required
maintenance or to accommodate multiple utility lines
(5) Where feasible, utility easements must be centered on a loVparcel line.
Response: A utility easement is shown on the site plan as well to reflect compliance with SDC 4.3.140. (See existing
conditions sheet)
4 1 P a g
(7) The proposal complies with the applicable sections of SDC 4.4, Landscaping, Screening, and Fence
Standards.
Response: Landscape plans are provided for the additional grassy swales to be constructed (see grassy swale detail &
Stormwater Management & Landscape plan). These plans show specific planting materials to be used as well as sizing.
All other landscaping is existing and will not be impacted since the development has already occurred.
SDC 4.4.110 Screening.
(A) Unless otherwise specified in this code, screening is required:
(I) Where commercial and industrial districts abut residential districts and no
approved screening exists;
Response: Screening is provided as already existing conditions for the property as this industrial site abuts residential
lots to the east. This screening includes the use of two types of fencing, wood and chain link with sight obscuring slats.

this subsection, screening must be continuous to at least 6 feet above ground level.
The following standards apply:
(2) Structural Screening. A fence or masonry wall must be constructed to provide a
100 percent sight -obscuring screen.
(a) No screen is allowed to exceed 4 feet in a residential district front yard
setback, and all screening must comply with vision clearance
requirements of SDC 4.2.130.
(b) Wherever a requireed screen in the form of a fence is adjacent to a
residential or commercial district or an arterial or collector street, it
must be made from a non-metallic material.
