• The assigned Planner notifies the applicant in writing regarding the completeness of
the application.
• An application is not be deemed technically complete until all information necessary
to evaluate the proposed development, its impacts, and its compliance with the
provisions of the Springfield Development Code and other applicable codes and
statutes have been provided.
• Incomplete applications, as well as insufficient or unclear data, will delay the
application acceptance and initiation of review timelines.
3. City Staff Review the Application and Issue a Decision
This is a Type I decision and thus is made without public notice and without a public
hearing since there are clear and objective approval criteria and/or development
standards that do not require the use of discretion.
Decisions address all the applicable approval criteria and/or development standards.
Applications may be approved or approved with conditions.
The City mails the applicant and owner a copy of the decision, which is effective on
the day it is mailed.
The decision issued is the final decision of the City and may not be appealed.
SDC 4.3-145 H. Review Process. The review process is determined by the type of WTS
facility or activity that is proposed. High or moderate visibility WTS facilities, defined in Subsection E.,
require Type III Planning Commission or Hearings Official review. Low visibility or stealth facilities,
and the co -location of new equipment of existing facilities are allowed under a Type I staff review
with applicable building or electrical permits. Routine equipment repair and maintenance do not
require planning review•, however, applicable building and electrical permits are required.
1. Development Issues Meeting. A Development Issues Meeting (DIM) as specified in
Subsection 5.1-120A. is required only for high and moderate visibility WTS facility applications.
Applicable development standards as specified in Subsection F. and submittal requirements as
specified in Subsection G., will be discussed at the DIM.
Revised 5/21/13 KL 3 of 14
2. Type I Review Process. The following WTS facilities are allowed with the approval of
the Director with applicable building and electrical permits:
a. Stealth and low visibility WTS facilities, as defined in Subsection E., in any
zoning district.
b. Facade -mounted antennas or low powered networked telecommunications
facilities, e.g., as those employing microcell antennas integrated into the architecture of
an existing building in a manner that no change to the architecture is apparent and no
part of the WTS facility is visible to public view.
C. Antennas or arrays that are hidden from public view through the use of
architectural treatments, e.g., within a cupola, steeple, or parapet which is consistent
with the applicable building height limitation.
d. New antennas or arrays including side -mounted antennas and small top -
mounted antennas that are attached to an existing broadcast communication facility
located in any zone. No more than 3 small top -mounted antennas shall be placed on the
top of any one facility without a Type III review.
e. To minimize adverse visual impacts associated with the proliferation and
clustering of towers, co -location of antennas or arrays on existing towers shall take
precedence over the construction of new towers, provided the co -location is
accomplished in a manner consistent with the following:
i. An existing tower may be modified or rebuilt to a taller height to
accommodate the co -location of additional antennas or arrays, as long as the
modified or rebuilt tower will not exceed the height limit of the applicable zoning
district. Proposals to increase the height of a tower in a residential zoning district,
or within 500 feet of a residential zoning district shall be reviewed under a Type
III process. The height change may only occur one time per tower.
ii. An existing tower that is modified or reconstructed to accommodate the
co -location of additional antennas or arrays shall be of the same tower type and
reconstructed in the exact same location as the existing tower.
f. Small wireless facilities proposed within the public right-of-way on an existing,
modified, new, or replacement small wireless facility structure in any zoning district in
City limits, that meet the standards in section 4.3-145.F.28.
g. Co -location of antennas or arrays on existing WTS facilities.
h. The Director will use the applicable criteria specified in Subsection I. to
evaluate the proposal.

ATTACHMENT A
General Information - Low Visibility, Stealth and Small Wireless
Telecommunication Facilities (MDS Type 1)
Standards for Review
SDC 4.3-145 F. General Standards. The Federal Telecommunications Act of 1996 establishes
limitations on the siting standards that local governments can place on WTS facilities. Section 704 of
the Act states that local siting standards shall not:
1) "unreasonably discriminate among providers of functionally equivalent services'
2) "prohibit or have the effect of prohibiting the provision of personal wireless services."
All applications for WTS facilities are subject to the standards in this Section to the extent that they
do not violate Federal limitations on local siting standards. Where application of the standards found
in this Section constitutes a violation, the least intrusive alternative for providing coverage shall be
allowed as an exception to the standards.
1. Design for Co -Location. All new towers shall be designed to structurally accommodate
the maximum number of additional users technically practicable.
2. Demonstrated Need for New WTS Facilities. Except for small wireless facilities,
applications shall demonstrate that the proposed W -FS facility is necessary to close a significant
gap in service coverage or capacity for the carrier and is the least intrusive means to close the
significant gap.
3. Lack of Coverage and Lack of Capacity. Except for small wireless facilities, the
application shall demonstrate that the gap in service cannot be closed by upgrading other
existing facilities. In doing so, evidence shall clearly support a conclusion that the gap results
from a lack of coverage and not a lack of capacity to achieve adequate service. If the
proposed WT'S facility is to improve capacity, evidence shall further justify why other methods
for improving service capacity are not reasonable, available or effective.
4. Identify the Least Intrusive Alternative for Providing Coverage. Except for small
wireless facilities, the application shall demonstrate a good faith effort to identify and evaluate
less intrusive alternatives, including, but not limited to, less sensitive sites, alternative design
systems, alternative tower designs, the use of repeaters, or multiple facilities. Subsection F.5.
defines the type of WTS facilities that are allowed in each zoning district.
S. Location of WTS Facilities by Type. Subsection E. defines various types of WTS
facilities by their visual impact. These are: high visibility, moderate visibility, low visibility and
stealth facilities. Table 4.3-1 lists the type of WTS facilities allowed in each of Springfield's
zoning districts.

(1) Moderate visibility WTS facilities in the Public Land and Open Space District are allowed only within the city limits.
6. Maximum Number of High Visibility WTS Facilities. No more than 1 high visibility
facility is allowed on any 1 lot/parcel.
EXCEPTION: The Approval Authority may approve exceeding the maximum number of high
visibility facilities per lot/parcel if one of the following findings is made:
a. Co -location of additional high visibility facilities is consistent with neighborhood
character;
b. The provider has shown that denial of an application for additional high visibility
WTS facilities would have the effect of prohibiting service because the proposed facility
would fill a significant gap in coverage and no alternative locations are available and
technologically feasible; or
C. The provider has shown that denial of an application for additional high visibility
WTS facilities would unreasonably discriminate among providers of functionally
equivalent services.
7. Separation between Towers. No new WTS tower may be installed closer than 2,000
feet from any existing or proposed tower unless supporting findings can be made under
Subsections F.2., 3. and 4. by the Approval Authority.
Revised 5/21/13 KL 9 of 14
S. WTS Towers Adjacent to Residentially Zoned Property. In order to ensure public
safety, all towers located on or adjacent to any residential zoning district shall be set back
from all residential property lines by a distance at least equal to the height of the facility,
including any antennas or other appurtenances. The setback shall be measured from that part
of the WTS tower that is closest to the neighboring residentially zoned property.
9. Historic Buildings and Structures. Except for small wireless facilities, no WTS facility
shall be allowed on any building or structure, or in any district, that is listed on any Federal,
State or local historic register unless a finding is made by the Approval Authority that the
proposed facility will have no adverse effect on the appearance of the building, structure, or
district. No change in architecture and no high or moderate visibility WTS facilities are
permitted on any building or any site within a historic district. Proposed WTS facilities in the
Historic Overlay District are also subject to the applicable provisions of Section 3.3-900.
10. Equipment Location. The following location standards shall apply to WTS facilities,
except for small wireless facilities:
a. No WTS facility shall be located in a front, rear, or side yard building setback in

from a property line abutting a street;
C. For guyed WTS towers, all guy anchors shall be located at least 50 feet from all
property lines.
11. Tower Height. Towers may exceed the height limits otherwise provided for in this
Code. However, all towers greater than the height limit of the base zone shall require
Discretionary Use approval through a Type III review process, subject to the approval criteria
specified in Subsection I.
12. Accessory Building Size. All accessory buildings and structures built to contain
equipment accessory to a WTS facility shall not exceed 12 feet in height unless a greater
height is necessary and required by a condition of approval to maximize architectural
integration. Each accessory building or structure located on any residential or public land and
open space zoned property is limited to 200 square feet, unless approved through the
Discretionary Use process.
13. Visual Impact. Except for small wireless facilities, which must meet the requirements
of section 4.3-145.F.28, all WTS facilities shall be designed to minimize the visual impact to
the greatest extent practicable by means of placement, screening, landscaping, and
camouflage. All facilities shall also be designed to be compatible with existing architectural
elements, building materials, and other site characteristics. The applicant shall use the least
visible antennas reasonably available to accomplish the coverage objectives. All high visibility
and moderate visibility facilities shall be sited in a manner to cause the least detriment to the
viewshed of abutting properties, neighboring properties, and distant properties.
Revised 5/21/13 KL 10 of 14
14. Minimize Visibility. Colors and materials for WTS facilities shall be nonreflective and
chosen to minimize visibility. Facilities, including support equipment and buildings, shall be
painted or textured using colors to match or blend with the primary background, unless
required by any other applicable law.
15. Camouflaged Facilities. All camouflaged WTS facilities shall be designed to visually and
operationally blend into the surrounding area in a manner consistent with existing
development on adjacent properties. The facility shall also be appropriate for the specific site.
In other words, it shall not "stand out' from its surrounding environment.
16. Facade -Mounted Antenna. Fagade-mounted antennas shall be architecturally
integrated into the building design and otherwise made as unobtrusive as possible. If possible,
antennas shall be located entirely within an existing or newly created architectural feature so
as to be completely screened from view. Fagade-mounted antennas shall not extend more
than 2 feet out from the building face.
17. Roof -Mounted Antenna. Roof -mounted antennas shall be constructed at the minimum
height possible to serve the operator's service area and shall be set back as far from the
building edge as possible or otherwise screened to minimize visibility from the public right-of-
way and adjacent properties.
18. Compliance with Photo Simulations. As a condition of approval and prior to final staff
inspection of the WTS facility, the applicant shall submit evidence, e.g., photos, sufficient to
prove that the facility is in substantial conformance with photo simulations provided with the
initial application. Nonconformance shall require any necessary modification to achieve
compliance within 90 days of notifying the applicant.
19. Noise. Noise from any equipment supporting the WTS facility shall comply with the
regulations specified in OAR 340-035-0035.
20. Signage. No signs, striping, graphics, or other attention -getting devices are permitted
on any WTS facility except for warning and safety signage that shall:
a. Have a surface area of no more than 3 square feet;
b. Be affixed to a fence or equipment cabinet; and
C. Be limited to no more than 2 signs, unless more are required by any other
applicable law.
21. Traffic Obstruction. Maintenance vehicles servicing WTS facilities located in the public
or private right-of-way shall not park on the traveled way or in a manner that obstructs traffic.
22. Parking. No net loss in required on-site parking spaces shall occur as a result of the
installation of any WTS facility.
23. Sidewalks and Pathways. Cabinets and other equipment shall not impair pedestrian
use of sidewalks or other pedestrian paths or bikeways on public or private land.
Revised 5/21/13 KL 11 of 14
24. Lighting. WTS facilities shall not include any beacon lights or strobe lights, unless
required by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) or other applicable authority. If beacon
lights or strobe lights are required, the Approval Authority shall review any available
alternatives and approve the design with the least visual impact. All other site lighting for
security and maintenance purposes shall be shielded and directed downward, and shall comply
with the outdoor lighting standards in Section 4.5-100, unless required by any other applicable
law.
25. Landscaping. For WTS facilities with towers that exceed the height limitations of the
base zone, at least 1 row of evergreen trees or shrubs, not less than 4 feet high at the time of
planting, and spaced out not more than 15 feet apart, shall be provided in the landscape
setback. Shrubs shall be of a variety that can be expected to grow to form a continuous hedge
at least 5 feet in height within 2 years of planting. Trees and shrubs in the vicinity of guy wires
shall be of a kind that would not exceed 20 feet in height or would not affect the stability of
the guys. In all other cases, the landscaping, screening and fence standards specified in
Section 4.4-100 shall apply.
26. Prohibited WTS Facilities.
a. Any high or moderate visibility WTS facility in the Historic Overlay District.
b. Any WTS facility in the public right-of-way that severely limits access to
abutting property, which limits public access or use of the sidewalk, or which constitutes
a vision clearance violation.
C. Any detached WTS facility taller than 150 feet above finished grade at the base
of the tower.
27. Speculation. No application shall be accepted or approved for a speculation WTS
tower, i.e., from an applicant that simply constructs towers and leases tower space to service
carriers, but is not a service carrier, unless the applicant submits a binding written
commitment or executed lease from a service carrier to utilize or lease space on the tower.
28. Small Wireless Facilities in the Public Right -of -Way. Small wireless facilities in the public
right-of-way must comply with the following standards:
a. Small wireless facility structures must meet the following height limits, whichever
is more:
i. 50 feet or less in height, including antenna height; or
ii. No more than 10% taller than the existing structure or other adjacent
