Summary
This is a city-sponsored Zoning Map Amendment to correct a conflict between the Metro Plan
and the zoning district. The Plan/ Zone conflict exists at 945 28th Street. It is a 2.5 acre property
containing three vacant structures. The Metro Plan designa.tes this area as Heavy Industrial, but
the property is zoned LMI (Light Medium Industrial). There is no Refinement Plan for this
area. According to the applicant, this zone change will make the property more marketable and
easier to sell. .
The zoning district and land use designation for this site have not changed since they were first
established by adoption of the Metro Plan in 1980. At that time, the LMI zone was used to
buffer the residential area from the industrial are to the east. Although the designation is
Heavy Industrial, SDC 3.2-405(C) states that less intensive industrial uses that are permitted in
the LMI District are also permitted in the HI district. This allowed the application of the LMI
zone in an area that was designated Heavy Industrial.
The major difference between the LMI and HI zoning districts is the severity of the external
impacts generated by the uses that are allowed in each district. The HI district allows uses that
require more outside activity, and generate more noise and odors. These uses include, but are
not limited to, asphalt batch plants and recycling centers. In addition, the HI zone allows uses
that tend to use larger and heavier vehicles, but produce fewer vehicle trips. The LMI zone
allows uses that tend to use smaller vehicles, but generate more frequent vehicle trips. Refer to
the comments from Jon Driscoll, received on March 16, 2010.

Comments from service providers. Based on comments from the service providers, the site
contains adequate public infrastructure to serve the uses in the HI zone:
o The Springfield Utility Board does not object to this zone change. Refer to the letter
received March 15, 2010.
o The Fire Marshall does not object to this zone change. Refer to the email received March
16,2010.
o The Engineering Division of the City P?blic Works Dept. does not object to this zone
change. Refer to the email from Eric Walter, received March 16, 2010.
o The Transportation Planning Division of the City Public Works Dept. does not object to
this zone change. Refer to the letter from Jon Driscoll received March 16, 2010.
The Commission should take public testimony and determine if the zone change is appropriate
for this site. The Commission has three options:
1. approve as recommended, or
2. approve but add/modify conditions based on testimony at the hearing, or
3. deny the application.
Staff recommends approval of the Zone Change. The attached order reflects that
recommendation. If the Commission chooses to deny the application. the order will need to be
revised to support that decision. In that case, the Commission should close the hearing and
move the item to the next public hearing (Tune 1). The revised order will be presented to the
Commission on that date.
Public Comments
No written public comments have been received as of the date of this report.
Procedural items
o On March 11, 2010, mailed notice of the public hearing was sent to DLCD.
o On March 16, 2010, the City's Development Review Committee reviewed the
application. City staff's review comments have been reduced to findings and conditions
as necessary to demonstrate compliance with the Zoning Map Amendment Criteria of
Approval contarned in SDC 5.22-115.
o Notice of the public hearing was sent to adjacent property owners/ occupants within 300
feet of the subject site on April 19. 2010. The applicant and parties submitting testimony
at the public hearing have appeal rights and are mailed a copy of this decision for
consideration.
o Notification was published in the Register Guard on April 26. 2010.

Finding: Page II-G-6 of the Metro Plan defines the Light Medium Industrial designation
as:
"This designation accommodates a variety of industries, including those
involved in the secondary processing of materials into components, the
assembly of components into finished products, transportation,
communication and utilities, wholesaling, and warehousing. The external
impact from these uses is generally less than Heavy Industrial, and
transportation needs are often met by truck. Activities are generally
located indoors, although there may be some outdoor storage. This
designation may also accommodate supporting offices and light industrial
uses, local regulations permitting."
Finding: Page II-G-6 of the Metro Plan defines the Heavy Industrial designation as:
"This designation generally accommodates industries that process large
volumes of raw materials into refined products and/ or that have
significant external impacts. Examples of heavy industry include: lumber
and wood products manufacturing; paper, chemicals and primary metal
manufacturing; large-scale storage of hazardous materials; power plants;
and railroad yards. Such industries often are energy-intensive, and
resource-intensive. Heavy industrial transportation needs often include
truck and rail. This designation may also accommodate light and medium
industrial uses and supporting offices, local regulations permitting."
Finding: SDC 3.2-405(B) defines the LMI zone. It states:
"Light-Medium Industrial District (LMI). LMI uses are generally involved
in the secondary processing of materials into components, the assembly of
components into finished products, transportation, communication and
utilities, wholesaling, and warehousing. The external impact from these
uses is generally less than Heavy Industrial, and transportation needs are
often met by truck. Activities are generally located indoors, although there
may be some outdoor storage. This designation also can accommodate
supporting offices and CI industrial uses."
Finding: SDC 3.2-405(C) defines the HI zone. It states:
"Heavy Industrial District (HI). HI uses are generally involved in the
processing of large volumes of raw materials into refined materials and/ or
that have significant external impacts. Heavy Industrial transportation
needs often include rail and truck. Examples of these uses are: lumber and
wood products; paper; chemicals and primary metal manufacturing; large-
scale storage of hazardous materials; power plants; and railroad yards. Less
intensive industrial uses that are permitted in the LMI District are also
permitted in this district."
Finding: The Metro Plan designates this area as Heavy Industrial, but the property is
zoned LMI (Light Medium Industrial). Based on the definitions contained in the
Springfield Development Code, the most appropriate zoning district for this site is HI
(Heavy Industrial).
Attachment 1-5
.
.
2. Consistency with applicable Refinement Plans, Plan District maps, Conceptual
Development Plans and functional plans; and
Finding: There are no applicable Refinement Plans, Conceptual Development Plans or
functional plans for this area.
3. The property is presently provided with adequate public facilities, services and
transportation networks to support the use, or these facilities, services and transportation
networks are planned to be provided concurrently with the development of the property.
Finding: Based on the comments of the public service providers, the site is provided
with adequate public facilities and services to support the uses allowed in the HI zone.
4. Legislative Zoning Map amendments that involve a Metro Plan Diagram amendment
shall:
a. Meet the approval criteria specified in Section 5.14-100; and
b. Comply with Oregon Administrative Rule (OAR) 660-012-0060, where
applicable.
Finding: This criterion is not applicable because this is a quasi-judicial Zoning Map
Amendment. it involves the application of existing policy to a specific factual setting
affecting a single property, and does not include a Metro Plan diagram amendment.
Quasi-judicial Zoning Map amendments are reviewed using the Type III procedure (a
public hearing before the Planning Commission).
Determination: Based on the findings of fact, conclusions of law and the evidence in the record,
the Director determines the proposal complies with the Zoning Map Amendment approval
criteria contained in SDC 5.22-115.

FROM: Jon Driscoll, Transportation Engineer in Training
SUBJECT: ZON2010-00003 Brownsfields Land & Development
Zoning Map Amendment-Public Works Transportation Comments
The Transportation Division has reviewed the subject ap,flication for the possible zoning
map amendment of the four tax lots located at 945 N 28 Street from currently zoned
LM! to ill (Heavy Industrial). The total acreage between the lots is 110642 sq. ft. (2.54
acres). The subject property is vac.ant and currently not in use.
}- Based on ITE Land Use Code 110 (General Light Industrial) the total trip
generation from this development upon completion of the proposed development
would be as follows:
. Average Weekday = 51.80 trips/acre x 2.54 acres = 132 trips
}- Based on ITE Land Use Code 120 (General Heavy Industrial) the total trip
generation from this development upon completion of the proposed development
would be as follows: .
. Average Weekday = 6.75 trips/acre x 2.54 acres = 18 trips
}- As can be seen in this data comparison the ITE Trip Generation manual, if the
zoning changed from LMI to ill, the projected change in traffic producible by the
site would be a reduction of 114 trips per day. Consequently, from a
Transportation trip impact analysis, this map amendment will increase capacity
for 28th Street. . .
}- On the other hand, the ill zone change will likely I:dd heavier traffic it 28th Street,
but I will let the Engineering Section deal with any compensatory requirements
for that aspect of change; As 28th Street is presently part of our designated truck
. route system, no extra measures will be required Transportation's viewpoint.
In SDC 5.22-11 0.A.2, the code reads, "Where applicable, legislative Zoning Map
amendments shall be reviewed to determine whether the application significantly affects
a transportation facility, as specified in Oregon Administrative Rule (OAR) 660-012-
0060.
SDC 5.22-115.C.3 states, "The property is presently provided with adequate public
facilities, services and transportation networks to support the use, or these facilities,
Note: As is stated in your Development Issues Application: The Development Issues Meeting is not a land use
decision and does not confer any development rights, establish any conditions, or bind the applicant or the City to any

change over time as development conditions or standards change.

services and transportation networks are planned to be provided concurrently with the
development of the property."
OAR 660-012-0060(1) in part states that "A plan or land use regulation amendment
significantly affects a transportation facility if'it would.. .(8) Reduce the performance of
an existing or planned transportation facility below the nllnimum acceptable performance
standard identified in the TSP or comprehensive plan; or (C) Worsen the performance of
an existing or planned transportation facility that is otherwise projected to perform below
the minimum acceptable performance standard identified in the TSP or comprehensive
plan."
This project would neither reduce or worsen the performance of 28th Street below
acceptable standards, so Transportation has no objections to this zoning map amendment.
Note: A3 is stated in your Development Issues Application: The Development Issues Meeting is not a land use
decision and does not confer any development rights, establish any conditions, or bind the applicant or the City to any
course of action. The meeting conveys the status of known development opportunities and constraints. The status may
