SDC 5.17-125.
I. LAND USE REQUEST
This land use request is for a Site Plan Review application to allow the development of a 128 -unit multiple
unit housing project. The subject site is zoned R-2 (Medium Density Residential). The applicant is seeking
Site Plan Review approval as required by the City of Springfield.
Development Proposal
The proposed 128 units are comprised of 6 buildings. Each building is 3 stories. Bicycle parking is in a room
within each of the buildings. There is a clubhouse/office building that will serve a use similar to a community

slight offset would not create issues and would be acceptable without a Traffic Impact Study.
Section 4.2.130 Vision Clearance.
(A) All lots or parcels must maintain a Vision Clearance Area to provide sight distance for approaching
traffic. Vision clearance areas must be shown on Site Plan for applicable land use application.

designed to transition to a setback sidewalk to move pedestrian access away from the busy
street and provide a plant bed between pedestrians and vehicles. 22nd Street also has curb side
sidewalks, and the proposed setback sidewalk will create the same type of transition to separate
pedestrians from vehicles. At the DIM both public works and transportation planning agreed this
was an appropriate design. The proposed sidewalks are 5' wide on both streets.
(D) Planter strips are required as part of sidewalk construction. Planter strips must be at least 4 1/2 feet
wide (as measured from the back of curb to the edge of the sidewalk) and at least 4 1/2 feet long.
Planter strips must have approved landscaping consisting of street trees and ground cover allowed
per the City's Engineering Design Standards and Procedures Manual Tree wells set in concrete or
sidewalk areas must be a minimum of 4 feet by 4 feet. Concrete, asphalt or other impermeable
pavement are not allowed to substitute for landscaping within planter strips.
The proposed platter strip is 6 12 feet on Maroola Road and 6 feet on 22nd Street, both
measurements include the curb. They are the full length of the project except where interrupted by
the driveway entrance. It will be planted as indicated above.
(E) Maintenance of sidewalks is the continuing obligation of the abutting property owner. (6443; 6412)

must be combined with evergreen plantings or a fence to form an attractive sight and noise buffer.
The maximum height of a berm is 6 feet along local streets and 8 feet along collector and arterial
streets or railroad rights-of-way.
There is an existing 6' high berm on the south property line. This will remain except for those
portions that need to be removed to construct the project.
