The City is required to establish an Urban Growth Boundary (UGB) separate from Eugene and determine whether the City has enough land in its UGB to accommodate 20 years of growth. This process will also help the City (1) formulate a community development land-use vision, (2) identify what types of development are appropriate for Springfield, and (3) and what policies will be needed to implement the land-use vision. How will the Community Development Land-Use Vision be developed? The first step is to gather public input. This survey will provide the City with information concerning the attitudes and opinions of Springfield residents regarding development issues. The City will use the survey results to create a community land-use vision and to develop strategies to implement the land-use vision. What can you do to help? Please help by completing the survey. It is purposely short and should take you about 15 minutes. The survey is anonymous: no individual person or business will be quoted when we report the summary results of the survey. If you are interested in getting more involved in the project you may call David Reesor, Senior Planner at (541) 726-3783. http://www.ci.springfield.or.us!dsdIPlanninglindex.htm Regional Unks Kids Unks Mission: "To foster lasting community livability Involving and reflecting Springfield's values, interests and concerns" Planning Projects Comprehensive Planning Residential Lands Study Land Use Efficiency Measures Housing Needs Analysis (~owerPolnt) Visualizing Density Commercial and Industrial Buildable Lands StudyjGoal14 Analysis (CIBL) Data.aecei)led CIBL Stak<MAlfl~ ~e20BB .

State law gives cities and counties the authority to adopt Urban Renewal Plans that Identify projects and actions that would eliminate blight, such as poor quality buildings located in downtown Springfield . On November 6, 2007, Springfield voters will be asked to authorize the Springfield City Council to adopt a Downtown Urban Renewal Plan that would use tax increment financing to fund blight-reducing projects and activities. How would Urban Renewal be Funded? . Urban renewal projects are often paid for using tax increment financing. This method does not impose new property taxes, but instead allocates a portion of the taxes that are collected to a city's urban r,enewal agency to pay for blight-reducing projects and activities. . Because tax increment financing does not impose new taxes, by reallocating some of the taxes generated within an urban renewal district to finance urban renewal projects and activities, property tax revenue to other taxing districts would be reduced.
