Dear Mr. Wingard:
It is our understanding that you are the legal owner of property located at 3001
Main Street in Springfield, Oregon (Assessor's Map 17 02 31 Tax Lot 600). It is our
further understanding that this property, which is zoned M-3 Heavy Industrial District,
is being leased to Mr. Frederick Frey for the operation of an auto-towing service.
The Springfield Planning Commission gave approval in October of 1977 for a Con-
ditional Use Permit (CUP) for Mr. Frey to operate the auto-towing service on your
Main Street property noted above, Approval of the CUP was subject to a number of
conditions set by the Planning Commission which had to be met for the auto-towing
operation to occur on the property.
The conditions of the CUP have not been met. Thus, on August 30, 1978, the Spring-
field Planning Commission reaffirmed and slightly ~odified the conditions of the CUP.
Mr. Frey disagreed with the CUP conditions set by the Planning Commission and thus ap-
pealed the Planning Commission's decision to the Springfield City Council. The Spring-
field City Council heard Mr. Frey's appeal on September 18, 1978, and requested that
this letter be sent to you as the owner of the property, since the consensus of the
City Council was that you, as the property owner, rather than Mr. Frey, as the Lessee,
should be required to meet the conditions of the CUP.
The conditions of the CUP, as set on August 30, 1978, which are to be met, are
hereby listed for your information:
a. Off-street parking for customers must be provided on the property, with an oil mat.
b. Installation of sidewalks along Main Street is required. Applicant has a time
limit of one year to install the sidewalks.
c. Installation of a slatted cyclone' fence with shrubbery along Main Street, with
fencing as required by ordinance along the remainder of the property. Applicant
must have this condition completed by the end of calendar year 1978. .
d. Signing of a street light agreement. Applicant has a period of 30 days'to sign
the agreement.
Please contact this office at 726-3759 at your convenience and we'll be.happy to
answer any questions and discuss how you, as the property owner, and Mr. Frey, as the
