EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Sprmgfield City Council voted unanimously on April 215\ 2008 to Initiate a Metro
Plan Diagram Amendment for property In the subject area Staff first presented the Issue
to the Planning CommisSion on Aprrl15', 2008, who In turn recommended It be sent to
Council for mltratlon of a Plan Amendment ThiS City Council mltrated Plan Amendment
IS based upon eVidence In the record which supports the need for the Diagram
Amendment
In the summer of 2007, the owner of property located at 1398 Rainbow Drrve
approached the City about further developing his property At that time, he was told that
there was a Plan I Zone conflict on his property, and that he could apply for a City
sponsored zone change to resolve the conflict on the property After applYing for the City
sponsored zone change, further research from Planning Staff mdlcated that there were
conflicting Issues related to the Plan I Zone conflict The applicant Withdrew the City
sponsored zone change application until the City could resolve these Issues
In recent years, Staff had mterpreted the LOR designation on the Plan Diagram to
"match up" With the western boundary of the Community Commercial (CC) zOning south
of Centennial However, research conducted m the fall of 2007 found that the City of
Springfield approved MDR zOning (which was conSidered "R-2" zOning at the time) west
of Rambow Drive In 1971 (Ord 3100) and again In 1978 (Ord 5121) From thiS
research, It seemed doubtful to Staff that the Intent of the Plan makers was to
consciously Invalidate approximately 8 acres of eXisting MDR zOning west of Rainbow
Drrve Staff's research also found that the rezoning of properties In the 1970s to MDR
(R-2 at the time) resulted In the development of the Rainbow Village apartments In the
early 1970s and the Bicentennial Park Condos In the mld-1990s Journal files for both
the Bicentennial Park Condos and the Rainbow Village apartments stated the Plan
designation as MDR
Currently no refinement plan eXists for thiS area Two local deCISions have provided
direction to property owners In thiS area In the past That direction has been to confirm

Finding 1: Goal 1 addresses the need to develop a citizen Involvement program to
ensure citizen Involvement In all phases of the land use planning process The Planning
Commission and the City Council will hold public heanngs and accept testimony on the
proposal Through the procedures established by the City, cllizens have received notice
of hearings In a generally published local paper (e g Register Guard) and have the
opportunity to be heard regarding the proposed diagram amendment Notice of the
public hearings was also given In accordance With SDC requirements to property owners
Within 300 feet of the proposed Plan Map Amendment Since the proposed amendment
complies With the City's citizen Involvement program and citizens have opportunities to
be Involved In the procedure, the proposed amendment IS consistent With Goal 1
STAFF'S FINDINGS RELATED TO COMPLIANCE WITH GOAL 2'
Goal2 Land Use Plannmg To establish a land use plannmg process and policy
framework as a basIs for all decIsIon and actIons related to use of land and to assure
an adequate factual base for such decIsIons and actIons
Finding 2 Goal 2 requires that local comprehensive plans be consistent With the Goals,
that local comprehensive plans be Internally conSistent, and that Implementing
ordinances be consistent With acknowledged comprehensive plans Goal 2 also
reqUires that land use deCISions be coordinated With affected JUriSdictions and that they

The Metro Plan and the SDC, as well as the Statewide Planning Goals and applicable
statutes, proVide poliCies and criteria for the evaluation of comprehensive plan
amendments Compliance With these measures assures an adequate factual base for
approval of the proposed Metro Plan diagram amendment As discussed elsewhere In
thiS document, the proposed map amendment IS consistent With the Metro Plan and the
Goals By demonstraling such compliance, the amendments satisfy the consistency
element of Goal 2
STAFF'S FINDINGS RELATED TO COMPLIANCE WITH GOAL 3
Goal 3 - Agncultural Land To preserve and mamtam agnculturallands

(3) Identify conflicting uses,
(4) examine the economiC, SOCial, environmental, and energy (ESEE)
consequences that could result from allOWing, limiting, or prohibiting
the conflicting uses, and
(5) develop programs to resolve the conflicts
The subject properties are not on Springfield's acknowledged Metro Plan Goal 5

Staff has reViewed the natural constraints map and the FEMA Floodplain Map In relation
to the subject area The subject area IS not Included In the City's Inventory of known
areas of natural hazards The site IS flat and not subject to landslide hazards, and IS

STAFF'S FINDINGS RELATED TO GOAL 10
Goa/10 - Housmg To provIde for the housmg needs of cItIzens of the state
Finding 10: LCOC's Housing goal reqUires cllles to maintain adequate supplies of
bUildable lands for needed housing, based on an acknowledged Inventory of bUildable
lands
The 1999 Eugene-Spnngfleld Metropolitan Area ReSidential Land and Housing Study IS
Springfield's most current adopted housing study related to Goal 10 The City of
Springfield IS also currently undergOing a new Resldenllal Lands Study which analyzes
housing Inventory and need for the next 20 years Preliminary findings of that study have
shown that there IS a need for addlllonal hOUSing Within the planning penod Some of
that need can be met through Increasing denSity of eXisting resldenllal zones The
proposed Plan Map Amendment would Increase allowable denSity levels Within the
subject area, thus proViding more hOUSing opllons for Springfield reSidents The subject
area IS pnmarlly zoned MOR, and IS currently bUilt to mostly MOR denSity levels The

STAFFS FINDINGS RELATED TO 514-135 (C)(2):
FlDdlDg 17 The applicatIOn requests amendment of the Metro Plan diagram from LOR
to MOR for approximately 8 79 acres This section of the application narrative
addresses the consistency of the amendment With the applicable policies of the Metro
Plan, to demonstrate that adoption of the amendment will not make the Metro Plan
Internally Inconsistent (as reqUired by the approval crrterra In SOC 5 14-135 (C)(2)
This narrative only addresses those policies that apply to the proposal, and does not
discuss those portions of the Metro Plan that (1) apply only to rural or other lands
outside of the urban growth boundary, (2) apply to land uses other than the current or
proposed designations for the site and will not be affected by the proposed Plan diagram
amendment, or (3) clearly apply only to specific development applications (e g , site plan
review submittals or subdiVISions) In many Instances the goals, policies and
Implementation measures apply to specific development proposals that will be
addressed through compliance With applicable City regulations durrng site plan review of
any given future redevelopment proposal
The Metro Plan Introduction, Section D provides the following definitions
A goal as a broad statement of philosophy that descrrbes the hopes of the
people of the community for the future of the community A goal may never
be completely attainable, but IS used as a pOint to strrve for
An objective IS an attainable target that the community attempts to reach In
strrvlng to meet a goal An objective may also be conSidered as an
intermediate pOint that will help fulfill the overall goal
A policy IS a statement adopted as part of the Plan to prOVide a consistent
course of action moving the community towards attainment of ItS goals
Except for the Growth Management Goals, which are addressed below, each of the
Metro Plan policies are addressed In the order In which they appear In the Plan Element
