REQUIRED STORMWATER SCOPING SHEET USE POLICY:
In October 2003, Springfield Public Works released a trial “stormwater 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
DIRECTIONS FOR USING STORMWATER SCOPING SHEETS ARE AS FOLLOWS:
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., Attn: Clayton
McEachern.
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: http://www.springfield-
or.gov/DPW/EngineeringandConstructionResources.htm under the Public Improvement Permit Projects Forms
section. Thank you in advance for working with the City of Springfield with this new process.

Background
This proposal pertains to Assessor’s Map and Tax Lot 17-02-34-44-90001, an approximately 1.13-acre lot located inside
the Springfield city limits, on Aster Street near S 67th Street (“subject property”). The subject property is “Parcel B” of
the 1980 Aster Condominiums Plat. It is zoned City of Springfield R-1 which maintains density standards of a minimum
of six (6) and a maximum of fourteen (14) dwelling units per net acre.
The proposed land division will create two (2) new lots – Lot 1 is proposed at 5,135 square feet and Lot 2 is proposed at
44,496 square feet. No development is proposed as a part of this Tentative Partition plan and the parent parcel meets
density requirements as there are ten (10) existing dwelling units situated among the 1.13-acre subject property.
This written statement intends to demonstrate the proposal’s compliance with all criteria and standards for Land
Divisions under SDC 5.12-115 Tentative Plan – General; SDC 5.12-120 Tentative Plan Submittal Requirements; and SDC
5.12-125 Tentative Plan Criteria. The Springfield Development Code (SDC) sections are indicated by bold and/or italic
typeface; applicant responses follow in plain typeface.
5.12.115 Tentative Plan—General.
Any residential land division shall conform to the following standards:
(A) The lot/parcel dimensions shall conform to the minimum standards of this code. When lots/parcels are more
than double the minimum area permitted by the zoning district, the Director shall require that these
lots/parcels be arranged:
(1) To allow redivision; and
(2) To allow for the extension of streets to serve future lots/parcels.
(3) Placement of structures on the larger lots/parcels shall be subject to approval by the
Director upon a determination that the potential maximum density of the larger lot/parcel is not
impaired. In order to make this determination, the Director may require a Future Development Plan
as specified in SDC 5.12.120(E).
Response: The subject property is zoned R-1 which maintains a 3,000 sq ft minimum lot size. Lot 1 is proposed at 5,135
sf; Lot 2 is proposed at 44,496 sf. Neither proposed lot exceeds double the minimum size allowed. This criterion is met.
(B) Double frontage lots/parcels shall be avoided, unless necessary to prevent access to residential development
from collector and arterial streets or to overcome specific topographic situations.
Response: SDC currently maintains no R-1 minimum frontage requirements.
(C) Panhandle lots/parcels shall comply with the standards specified in SDC 3.2.215 and 4.2.120(A). In the case
of multiple panhandles in Partitions, construction of necessary utilities to serve all approved panhandle
lots/parcels shall occur prior to recording the Plat.
Response: This tentative partition plan proposes no panhandle lots/ parcels.
(D) Public street standards as specified in SDC 4.2.105.
Response: No public streets are included or proposed in this tentative partition.

PLANNING
1. There is an existing 8-inch public sanitary sewer line that runs along the southern edge of proposed Parcel 1 to a point
approximately 45 feet from the western boundary. At the terminus of the public line there are multiple service connections to
existing dwelling units within the complex. The alignment of all these service laterals are not shown on the tentative partition
plan. A public utility easement will be required for the segment of public sewer line running along the southern boundary of
Parcel 1, and private utility easement(s) will be required for all service laterals extending from the public line.
Response: A 7’ PUE (public utility easement) is proposed for the segment of the public sanitary-sewer line running along the southern
boundary of proposed Parcel 1 and is shown on the tentative partition plan. A private utility easement for co-locating potentially existing
utilities is proposed on the tentative partition plan. Should relocating of utilities be necessary for potential future development this will be
completed by the property owner.
2. The proposed building envelope area is not depicted on the partition plan. Because of multiple buried utility lines the
applicant will need to confirm buildability of this proposed parcel.
Response: The tentative partition plan does not show a building envelope area as development is not proposed at this time. The
property owner will relocate/co-locate any existing utilities that require relocating to ensure buildability of proposed Parcel 1 at the time
of any potential future development.
3. Street trees will be required along the South 67th Street and Aster Street frontages of the partition area.
Response: The required number of street trees along the South 67th and Aster Street frontages are proposed on the tentative partition
plan and if approved will be planted when required.
4. As noted above the applicant has not depicted the alignment of sanitary sewer, water and electrical lines that cross the
Parcel 1 area. Applicant must request utility locates to determine location and alignment of service lines prior to submitting
tentative partition plan.
Response: The property owner chooses not to request a private utility locate at this time and will address any possibly existing utility
necessities at the time of any potential future development of proposed Parcel 1.
PUBLIC WORKS ENGINEERING
1. Existing street trees not shown. Three new street trees will be required as part of the partition along Aster and S 67th
Street.
Response: Existing and proposed street trees are now shown on the tentative partition plan.
2. A 7' PUE along Aster and S 67t h Street will be required. It appears sewer service to the southern units is by a public sewer
main that crosses the proposed parcel 1 and a 14' wide sewer easement is required for this. It is likely a water and power
easement will be required for this area also and these can be co-located. The likely location of the utilities will probably make
parcel 1 not buildable.
Response: A 14’ wide sewer easement is proposed on the revised tentative partition plan. The property owner will relocate/co-locate
any existing utilities on proposed Parcel 1 so that it is buildable for any potential future development.
3. No new impervious surface is being proposed with this land division but any additional development of either parcel will
require stormwater management when that occurs.
Response: Noted.
TRANSPORTATION
1. Applicant must provide a plan showing access to the new parcel from the existing shared driveway to minimize access points
onto the collector roadway. An access easement must be established providing access rights to the new parcel.
Response: A proposed access easement extending from the existing shared driveway to proposed Parcel 1 is shown on the revised
Tentative Partition plans.
2. Ramps at the intersection of Aster and S 67th are not shown. Sidewalk on the west side of S 6 7t h is shown yet does not exist.
Response: These revisions have been made to the tentative partition plan.
3. Missing the stop sign and no parking signage installations.
Response: These items have been added to the tentative partition plan.
