DISCUSSION/
FINANCIAL
IMPACT:
The City's schedule of fees and charges is established through Council action. This
document provides a reference for citizens, councilors, and staff to identify the
current fees authorized to be levied and collected by the City. Staff have
consolidated past documents describing the City's various fees and the method for
making changes into a single document titled Master Fees and Charges (MF&C)
Schedule.
The MF&C Schedule serves as a comprehensive guide that outlines the City's fees
and charges. This document helps to simplify the fee structure and provides clarity to
stakeholders regarding the fees that are currently in place. It also assists in
identifying any new and removed fees that have been proposed by staff.
The Council Briefing Memorandum accompanies the MF&C Schedule and provides
a summary of proposed revised, new, and removed fees. The memorandum includes
background information to provide context for the proposed changes and facilitates
informed decision-making by the Council.

ADJUSTMENT UPDATE
MEMORANDUM
ISSUE: Each year, Council and staff review existing fees and charges for appropriateness of rates
for meeting cost recovery targets. Staff has prepared the update to the Master Fees and Charges
Schedule for FY25 and requests Council hold a public hearing and adopt/not adopt the resolution
to amend Master Fees & Charges (Chapter 1-10) with an effective date of July 1, 2024.
COUNCIL GOALS/
MANDATE: Financially Responsible and Stable Government Services
BACKGROUND:
The City Council is responsible for determining the schedule of City fees and charges. To streamline
the process, staff consolidate various fee documents into a single fee schedule known as the Master
Fees and Charges (MF&C) Schedule. This document serves as a reference for citizens, Councilors,
and staff to quickly identify the current fees authorized by the City for collection. The MF&C
Schedule includes fees for all City service areas such as Fire & Life Safety, Library, Municipal Court,
Police, Building Safety, Engineering, Planning, Utilities, and System Development Costs (SDCs).
Fees are a necessary source of revenue to support City services and programs. City staff are
committed to ensuring that our fee structures are fair and reasonable and welcome feedback from the
Council on how the City can improve its fee policies and/or adjust its programs and service levels in
line with the fee levels the Council deems appropriate.
Several discussions have taken place with Council regarding a variety of fees contained in the MF&C
schedule. These discussions include:
02-26-2024 – City Council Work Session
• Initial Master Fees & Charges Discussion for FY25 Rate Adjustment (Bell)
04-08-2024 – City Council Work Session
• Update on Master Fees & Charges for FY25 (Mumme)
4-15-2024 – City Council Work Session/Council Meeting
• Sanipac Annual Rate Adjustment (Kelly-Quattrocchi/Mumme)
• Housing Diversity Tax Exemption (Second Reading) (Carroll)

4-22-2024 – City Council Work Session
• FY24-25 Wastewater & Stormwater Local Rates (Stouder)
5-6-2024 – City Council Publish Hearing
• Wastewater & Stormwater Rate Adoption (Stouder)
5-28-2024 – City Council Work Session
• Planning and Engineering Development Fees (Rust)
Staff have prepared a redlined version of the Master Fees and Charges Schedule based on Council
feedback from the last work session on this topic held on April 8, 2024. Staff have incorporated the
revised Sanipac rates, the Housing Diversity Tax Exemption fee, and Wastewater and Stormwater
rates as approved by Council. A new proposed fee, Residential Driveway Parking Review Fee, was
added after the work session held on April 8, 2024.
As the MF&C Schedule includes fees from various departments, each department is responsible for
setting and recommending their respective fees based on different factors. Representatives from each
department are available to answer any questions related to their specific fees.
PROPOSED ADDITIONS, DELETIONS & ADJUSTMENTS BY SECTION:
Below is a summary of proposed changes to the MF&C Schedule utilizing the information provided
by Council at the February 26, 2024 meeting. For fees driven by staffing costs, the escalator is 5%.
For fees driven by CPI inflation, the escalation is 3.3%. Staff reviewed each fee individually and some
fees were not changed in this adjustment cycle. Fees have been rounded to the nearest whole dollar
wherever possible. Changes are listed by section, and all sections are contained in Attachment 2.
Section 1 General:
Business License Section: The escalator of 5% for fees driven by staffing costs was utilized.
Other General Fees Section: The Pioneer East parking lot was removed as a lot within the Downtown
Parking Program.
Section 2 Fire & Life Safety:
Ambulance & Emergency Services User Fees Section: Sit-Up Patients, mileage rate (per patient mile)
was increased from $24.18 to $26.28 to correspond with existing Emergency and Non-Emergency
Transport Rates.
Per the Fire Marshal, move the “Fire Department New Construction Square Footage Fees” and the
“Mobile Emergency Responder Radio Coverage Program (MERRC) Fees” from Section 02 ‘Fire’ to
Section 06 ‘Building Safety’. No change in fee amount, only location of fee.

Section 3 Library:
General Fees Section: The Processing Fee for processing lost or damaged items was increased from
$5.25 to $5.50.
Section 4 Muni Court:
General Fees Section: The escalator of 5% was applied to fees that can be changed by Municipal
Court. The remaining fees are set by statute or based on the offense presumptive fine amount and
were not changed.
Fee added: Copy Fee, Electronic copies, $1.00/page.
Section 5 Police:
General Fees: The escalator of 3.3% for fees driven by CPI inflation was utilized for some fees.
Section 6 Building Safety:
Per the Fire Marshal, moved the “Fire Department New Construction Square Footage Fees” and the
“Mobile Emergency Responder Radio Coverage Program (MERRC) Fees” from Section 02 ‘Fire’ to
Section 06 ‘Building Safety’. No change in fee amount, only location of fee.
Inspections outside normal business hours (minimum 1 hour) has been $124.00 for several years
(2021 was last update). This fee is supposed to capture staff time at ‘time-and-a-half’ and has been
undercharged. Staff propose updating to $171.00 to reflect original intent.
Of the remaining fees changes, the escalator of 5% for fees driven by staffing costs was utilized in this
section.
Section 7 Engineering:
The escalator of 5% for fees driven by staffing costs was utilized for the Engineering section.
Fee added: The City Surveyor proposes a separate fee and application for the final plat review. The
review for a final plat consists of planning and survey under a single application. Planning processes
and timelines and survey processes and timelines differ but are combined under one fee and
application. Additionally, the Surveyors provide a plat review at no cost to the Planning Department
or the applicant. Creating a separate fee and application will accomplish two ends: 1) capture some of
the costs associated with plat review, and 2) creates a separate plat check application.
Land Partition Plat, Final
Base Fee: $200.00
Additional Review (each): $100.00/review
The Base fee includes the first two plat check reviews. Each additional review of the same plat is
charged an additional fee.

Additional Review (each): $100.00/review
The Base fee includes the first two plat check reviews plus $10 per lot. Each additional review of the

Section 8 Planning:
Planning and Engineering Development Fees were discussed at a City Council work session on May
28, 2024. Staff received feedback from Council and will use that information to propose adjustments
in future updates.
Fee added: Housing Diversity Tax Exemption (HDTE) Application Fee
This fee covers the City’s staffing costs for processing applications for the Housing Diversity Tax
Exemption (HDTE), if adopted, including application review and decision, and certification to the
Lane County Assessor. The Lane County Assessor will also collect a fee to cover its costs for
processing approved applications and applying the tax exemption.
There are three different fees to account for the variation in staff time to process an HDTE application
depending on how the applicant chooses to meet the program’s public benefit requirement.
The Option 1 fee covers costs to process an application meeting clear and objective public benefit
criteria. The fee for Option 1: $1,950.00
The Option 2 fee covers costs to process an application where the applicant is paying a fee-in-lieu of
including a public benefit in the project and is lower to account for the reduction in staff time. The fee
for Option 2: $1,150.00
The Option 3 fee covers costs for processing an application that includes public benefits not meeting
clear and objective criteria which will go to City Council for review and decision. This application fee
is the highest to account for the increased staff time to process the application and prepare materials
for the Council. The fee for Option 3: $4,000.00
Fee added: Residential Driveway/Parking Review Fee
This fee was recently identified as being needed to provide a process that is specified in the
Springfield Development Code for approving residential driveway/parking. This fee will cover City
planning staff time for reviewing and processing of submitted applications, if adopted. The city
engineering department charges a fee for driveway approach permits when a driveway approach is
proposed to be installed or altered in the Right of Way. The planning review fee will cover the review
of any driveway/parking proposed on private property, outside of the right of way.

PROPOSED SURVEYORS FEE PROPOSAL
Add Fee:
Land ParƟƟon Plat, Final
Base Fee$200.00
AddiƟonal Review (each)$100.00/review
The Base fee includes the first two plat check reviews. Each addiƟonal review of the same plat is
charged an addiƟonal fee.
Add Fee:
Subdivision Plat, Final
Base Fee$200.00
Plus number of lots $10/lot
AddiƟonal Review (each)$100.00/review
The Base fee includes the first two plat check reviews plus $10 per lot. Each addiƟonal review of the
same plat is charged an addiƟonal fee.
The City Surveyor proposes a separate fee and applicaƟon for the final plat review. The review for a final
plat consists of planning and survey under a single applicaƟon. Planning processes and Ɵmelines and
survey processes and Ɵmelines differ but are combined under one fee and applicaƟon. AddiƟonally, the
Surveyors provide a plat review at no cost to the Planning Department or the Applicant. CreaƟng a
separate fee and applicaƟon will accomplish two ends: 1) capture some of the costs associated with plat
review, 2) creates a separate plat check applicaƟon.

Section 10: System Development Charges
Section 10: System Development Charges
The System Development Charges are annually increased by an inflationary rate on July 1 of each
year.
The following fees shall be charged for the development activities of the City:
Calculating the SDC
The SDC charges for each development are calculated using the worksheet shown as Exhibit 2.
The Storm Sewer SDC is based on square feet of impervious surface area. The Sanitary Sewer SDC is based
on drainage fixture units as defined by the April 2000 Oregon Amendments to the 1997 Uniform Plumbing
Code. The Transportation SDC is based on average weekday trip generation rates as published in the
latest edition of the Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Manual. More detailed information on
calculating the fees for each system is shown below:
Storm Drainage
The storm drainage SDC is paid by all new residential, commercial, and industrial development. The
charge is based on the square footage of the impervious surface area of the development. Impervious
surfaces typically consist of concrete, asphalt, and roofing. The cost per square foot of impervious surface
area is $0.849828. In applying the SDC, the cost per square foot is applied to the amount of impervious
surface area measured at the time the building permit is issued.
FORMULA: STORM DRAINAGE SDC = IMPERVIOUS SQUARE FEET x $0.8280.849/SQUARE FOOT
A 50% credit will be given for the portion of impervious area served by a drywell sized and constructed to
City of Springfield Standard Construction Specifications. A SDC credit will also be given for peak ten‐year
runoff reduction based on documentation provided by the developer and approved by the City.
Sanitary Sewer‐City
The charge is paid by all new commercial, industrial, and residential development. To calculate the impact
of new development on the sanitary sewer system, the City uses the number of drainage fixture units
(DFU) as the basis of the charge.
Residential rate increases to $284.44291.83 per DFU.
FORMULA: Residential City sanitary sewer SDC = number of DFU x $284.44291.83
Commercial/Industrial is $284.44291.83 per DFU.
FORMULA: Commercial/industrial City sanitary sewer SDC = number of DFU x $284.44291.83

Transportation
This SDC is charged on new commercial, industrial, professional, and residential development or change
of use. It helps support expansion of arterial and collector roads, traffic signals, and street lighting. The
SDC is based on the trip rate of the specific type of development and the cost per trip. The cost per trip is
$444.01455.55 for all use types. A new trip factor is applied to omit short pass‐by trips, diverted trips, and
other linked trips. Trip rates for developments are based on the current Institute for Transportation
Engineers' (ITE's) Trip Generation Manual, or the developer can submit a trip generation study outlined
and approved by the City of Springfield. A partial list of trip rates is in the Transportation Fee Schedule,
Exhibit 3.
FORMULA: Number of Trips X Unit X $444.01455.55 X New Trip Factor
Sanitary Sewer (MWMC)
The Metropolitan Wastewater Management Commission (MWMC) Facility Equalization Charge is a
reimbursement fee for the reserve capacity that was constructed to serve new growth. This fee is
designed to reimburse the community for its equity in the treatment plant's reserve capacity. Newly
developed properties, change of use, or other properties that are connecting to the wastewater
treatment system for the first time will pay the equalization charge. New development receives credit for
past bond payments on existing debt and for contributions to qualified offsite public improvements. See
Exhibit 4, Attachments C. The Flow Estimation Units (FEU) is used for the MWMC Facility Equalization
Charge.
Formula: NUMBER OF FEU x COST PER FEU + $10 ADMIN. FEE
Administrative Cost
The SDC legislation allows the City to recover its costs for complying with the required changes. A five
percent (5%) administrative fee will be added to cover the cost of developing the SDC, establishing
accounting mechanisms and administering the ongoing program.

Section 10: System Development Charges
Short‐Term SDC Payment Deferral Program
(City Policy) Whenever the total SDC due for a Building Permit exceeds $10,000 the applicant may elect to
enter into a short‐term SDC Deferral Agreement. The Agreement is in the form of a potential lien and
must be signed prior to Building Permit issuance. The SDC Deferral Agreement allows the applicant to pay
a minimum of $10,000 toward the total SDC due prior to the City issuing the Building Permit. The balance
of the SDC due must be paid in full prior to the City issuing a Certificate of Occupancy for the building.
Initial SDC Payment $10,000.00 at Building Permit Issuance
Final SDC Payment Balance of SDC Due prior to Certificate of
Occupancy
SDC Credit Certificate Administration Fees
(SMC 3.417) (1) In the event a credit authorized under section 3.416(2) is greater than the amount of
the charge due, the City shall upon request of the developer, issue to the developer a certificate,
documenting the amount of the credit in excess of the charge.
(2) Such certificate may be redeemed by the developer and applied to future charges for
that type of capital improvement, provided such redemption shall occur not later than 10 years after the
date of issuance of the certificate.
(3) Any developer issued a certificate shall pay to the City, at the time of issuance, and
annually thereafter until such certificate is redeemed, an administrative fee fixed by resolution of the
Council. Failure to timely pay such annual fee shall not invalidate a certificate, but no certificate shall be
transferred or redeemed until all annual fees shall have been paid.
(4) The certificate may be redeemed in whole or in parts. If the certificate is redeemed in
part, the City shall, upon delivery of the certificate, issue a new certificate documenting the remaining
credit available. Such reissued certificate shall expire 10 years after the date of the original certificate and
shall be considered a new certificate for purposes of the administrative fee.
(5) Such certificate may be transferred, in whole or in part, to another person, provided,
however, that no such transfer shall be effective until the holder of the certificate shall surrender the
same and a new certificate or certificates issued.
Initial SDC Credit Certificate Fee $250.00
Annual Certificate Maintenance Fee $250.00

Add Fee:
Subdivision Plat, Final
Base Fee$200.00
Plus number of lots $10/lot
AddiƟonal Review (each)$100.00/review
The Base fee includes the first two plat check reviews plus $10 per lot. Each addiƟonal review of the
same plat is charged an addiƟonal fee.
The City Surveyor proposes a separate fee and applicaƟon for the final plat review. The review for a final
plat consists of planning and survey under a single applicaƟon. Planning processes and Ɵmelines and
survey processes and Ɵmelines differ but are combined under one fee and applicaƟon. AddiƟonally, the
Surveyors provide a plat review at no cost to the Planning Department or the Applicant. CreaƟng a
separate fee and applicaƟon will accomplish two ends: 1) capture some of the costs associated with plat
review, 2) creates a separate plat check applicaƟon.

Section 10: System Development Charges
Section 10: System Development Charges
The System Development Charges are annually increased by an inflationary rate on July 1 of each
year.
The following fees shall be charged for the development activities of the City:
Calculating the SDC
The SDC charges for each development are calculated using the worksheet shown as Exhibit 2.
The Storm Sewer SDC is based on square feet of impervious surface area. The Sanitary Sewer SDC is based
on drainage fixture units as defined by the April 2000 Oregon Amendments to the 1997 Uniform Plumbing
Code. The Transportation SDC is based on average weekday trip generation rates as published in the
latest edition of the Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Manual. More detailed information on
calculating the fees for each system is shown below:
Storm Drainage
The storm drainage SDC is paid by all new residential, commercial, and industrial development. The
charge is based on the square footage of the impervious surface area of the development. Impervious
surfaces typically consist of concrete, asphalt, and roofing. The cost per square foot of impervious surface
area is $0.849. In applying the SDC, the cost per square foot is applied to the amount of impervious
surface area measured at the time the building permit is issued.
FORMULA: STORM DRAINAGE SDC = IMPERVIOUS SQUARE FEET x $0.849/SQUARE FOOT
A 50% credit will be given for the portion of impervious area served by a drywell sized and constructed to
City of Springfield Standard Construction Specifications. A SDC credit will also be given for peak ten-year
runoff reduction based on documentation provided by the developer and approved by the City.
Sanitary Sewer-City
The charge is paid by all new commercial, industrial, and residential development. To calculate the impact
of new development on the sanitary sewer system, the City uses the number of drainage fixture units
(DFU) as the basis of the charge.
Residential rate increases to $291.83 per DFU.
FORMULA: Residential City sanitary sewer SDC = number of DFU x $291.83
Commercial/Industrial is $291.83 per DFU.
FORMULA: Commercial/industrial City sanitary sewer SDC = number of DFU x $291.83

Transportation
This SDC is charged on new commercial, industrial, professional, and residential development or change
of use. It helps support expansion of arterial and collector roads, traffic signals, and street lighting. The
SDC is based on the trip rate of the specific type of development and the cost per trip. The cost per trip is
$455.55 for all use types. A new trip factor is applied to omit short pass-by trips, diverted trips, and other
linked trips. Trip rates for developments are based on the current Institute for Transportation Engineers'
(ITE's) Trip Generation Manual, or the developer can submit a trip generation study outlined and
approved by the City of Springfield. A partial list of trip rates is in the Transportation Fee Schedule, Exhibit
3.
FORMULA: Number of Trips X Unit X $455.55 X New Trip Factor
Sanitary Sewer (MWMC)
The Metropolitan Wastewater Management Commission (MWMC) Facility Equalization Charge is a
reimbursement fee for the reserve capacity that was constructed to serve new growth. This fee is
designed to reimburse the community for its equity in the treatment plant's reserve capacity. Newly
developed properties, change of use, or other properties that are connecting to the wastewater
treatment system for the first time will pay the equalization charge. New development receives credit for
past bond payments on existing debt and for contributions to qualified offsite public improvements. See
Exhibit 4, Attachments C. The Flow Estimation Units (FEU) is used for the MWMC Facility Equalization
Charge.
Formula: NUMBER OF FEU x COST PER FEU + $10 ADMIN. FEE
Administrative Cost
The SDC legislation allows the City to recover its costs for complying with the required changes. A five
percent (5%) administrative fee will be added to cover the cost of developing the SDC, establishing
accounting mechanisms and administering the ongoing program.
Residential SDC Payment Deferral Program
(SMC 3.412) (4) The purchaser of a home or multifamily dwelling may elect to finance system
development charges over a period of 10 years, billed in equal semiannual installments, plus interest and
fees.
Interest Rate – Unbonded Average City Earnings Rate
plus 2%
Interest Rate – Bonded Bond Rate plus 1.5%
Deferral Administrative Fee $53.35
Installment Late Payment Fee 10% of Overdue Installment

Section 10: System Development Charges
Short-Term SDC Payment Deferral Program
(City Policy) Whenever the total SDC due for a Building Permit exceeds $10,000 the applicant may elect to
enter into a short-term SDC Deferral Agreement. The Agreement is in the form of a potential lien and
must be signed prior to Building Permit issuance. The SDC Deferral Agreement allows the applicant to pay
a minimum of $10,000 toward the total SDC due prior to the City issuing the Building Permit. The balance
of the SDC due must be paid in full prior to the City issuing a Certificate of Occupancy for the building.
Initial SDC Payment $10,000.00 at Building Permit Issuance
Final SDC Payment Balance of SDC Due prior to Certificate of
Occupancy
SDC Credit Certificate Administration Fees
(SMC 3.417) (1) In the event a credit authorized under section 3.416(2) is greater than the amount of
the charge due, the City shall upon request of the developer, issue to the developer a certificate,
documenting the amount of the credit in excess of the charge.
(2) Such certificate may be redeemed by the developer and applied to future charges for
that type of capital improvement, provided such redemption shall occur not later than 10 years after the
date of issuance of the certificate.
(3) Any developer issued a certificate shall pay to the City, at the time of issuance, and
annually thereafter until such certificate is redeemed, an administrative fee fixed by resolution of the
Council. Failure to timely pay such annual fee shall not invalidate a certificate, but no certificate shall be
transferred or redeemed until all annual fees shall have been paid.
(4) The certificate may be redeemed in whole or in parts. If the certificate is redeemed in
part, the City shall, upon delivery of the certificate, issue a new certificate documenting the remaining
credit available. Such reissued certificate shall expire 10 years after the date of the original certificate and
shall be considered a new certificate for purposes of the administrative fee.
(5) Such certificate may be transferred, in whole or in part, to another person, provided,
however, that no such transfer shall be effective until the holder of the certificate shall surrender the
same and a new certificate or certificates issued.
Initial SDC Credit Certificate Fee $250.00
Annual Certificate Maintenance Fee $250.00
