C. Development Objective
The development objective is to create a long linear housing project along the old transit corridor
with associated parking and amenities. Converting the old property into residential would require
an Annexation, a Subdivision, and a Site Plan Review. Access from the lot may require a
secondary entrance/exit at the north end off Pheasant Blvd. Other land use applications for
Springfield could include a Middle Housing Subdivision and Site Plan Review.
II. ANNEXATION – APPROVAL CRITERIA
Annexation Approval Criteria are found in Section 5.7-140 of the Springfield Development Code
(SDC). 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.
Response: The affected territory is located within the city’s urban growth boundary and is
contiguous to the city limits on its northern, and eastern boundaries.
Given this, criterion 5.7-140(A) is met.
B. 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
Eugene/Springfield Metro Plan diagram.
There are no applicable refinement plans or
Plan Districts. Once annexed into the City of
Springfield, the Urbanizable Fringe (UF-10)
overlay will no longer apply, and the site will
be zoned Low Density Residential. The
applicant, Mike Gansen Construction, may
apply for a subsequent applications.

The Satre Group 375 West 4th Avenue, Suite 201, Eugene, OR 97401 (541) 686-4540 www.satregroup.com
Response: Minimum key urban facilities and services as defined in the Metro Plan
includes wastewater, stormwater, transportation, solid waste management, water service,
fire and emergency medical service, police protection, city-wide parks and recreation
programs, electric service, land use controls, communication facilities, and public schools
on a district-wide basis (Metro Plan, Chapter V, Glossary, definition 24). As documented
elsewhere in this application these key urban facilities and services have been provided
to the subject site in an orderly and efficient manner.
Policy 10. 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, the 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 18. As annexations to cities occur over time, existing special service districts within
the UGB 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 21a. 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:

of Game Farm Road will be annexed with this application. The applicant has
current plans to access the property from Game Farm Road and a possible
second access point at the north end, off Pheasant Blvd.
Given this, criterion 5.7-140(C) is met.
D. 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.

submittal, the applicant believes that the requested annexation can be approved.
