Site:
Summary of proposal: The applicant submitted plans to replace the existing Taco Bell
Restaurant with a new style Taco Bell Restaurant. The existing building has a footprint of
approximately 1,800 sf. It is primarily a drive-thru restaurant with minimal indoor seating. The
new building will have a footprint of approximately 2,500 sf, with a reconfigured drive aisle
that will eliminate or significantly reduce the pedestrian and vehicular conflicts.
The site is designated Nodal/Mixed Use in the Metro Plan. The site is zoned MUC (Mixed Use
Comrnercial)/Nodal Development.
The proposed use is an eat-in restaurant with a drive thru. SDC 3.2-610 lists "Drive-up
restaurants", as well as "sit-down restaurants" as allowed uses in the MUC zone. In addition to
the Mixed Use design standards contained in SDC 3.2-625, drive-up restaurants are also subject
to Special Design standards contained in Section 4.7-180.
Because the site is within the Nodal Development Overlay District, it will include pedestrian-
friendly, human sdtle characteristics that define nodal development. The specific requirements
are contained in SDC 3.3-1005.
The site is within the 1-5 year Time of Travel Zone of the 16lh & Q Street well. This application
is exempt from a DWPapplication, as evidenced by a letter from SUB dated December 17, 2009.

reviewed: Portions of the proposal approved as submitted during tentative review
cannot be substantively changed during Final Site Plan approval.
Comments Received:
No comments were received.
SDC 5.17-125 Site Plan Review Criteria of Approval
The Director shall approve or approve with conditions: a Type II Site Plan Review application
upon determining that approval criteria A. through E., below have been satisfied. If conditions
cannot be attached to satisfy the approval criteria, the Director shall deny the application.
A. The zoning is consistent with the Metro Plan diagram, and/or 'the applicable
Refinemen~ Plan diagram, Plan District map, and Conceptual Development Plan.
Finding: The site is zoned MUC (Mixed Use Commercial) and Nodal Development. This
area is designated Mixed Use/Nodal by the Metro Plan. There is no refinement plan
applicable to this site.
Con~lusion: The proposal complies with SDC 5.17-125(A).
B. Capacity requirements of public and private facilities, including but not limited to,
water and electricity; sanitary sewer and stonnwater management facilities; and streets
and traffic safety controls shall not be exceeded and the public improvements shall be
available to serve the site at the time of development, unless otherwise provided for by ,
this Code and other applicable regulations. The Public Works Director or a utility
'provider shall determine capacity issues.
SANITARY SEWER
Finding: Pursuant to Chapter 3.03.4.A of the City's Engineering Design Standards and
Procedures Manual and Section 4.4 of Portland's Stormwater Management Manual, solid
waste storage areas shall be covered and hydraulically isolated from potential
stormwater runoff, and directed to the sanitary sewer system.
STORMWATER MANAGEMENT
Finding: Section 4.3-110.E of the SDC requires new developments to employ drainage
management practices, which minimize the amount and rate of surface water run-off
into receiving streams, and which promote water quality.
Finding: To comply with Sections 4.3-110.D & E, stormwater runoff from the site will be
directed intp a bio swale prior to discharge into the public system. The public system is
located under the existing paving for Mohawk St.
WATER QUALITY
Finding: Under Federal regulation of the Oean Water Act (CWA), Endangered Species
Act (ESA), and National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES), the City of
Springfield has obtained a Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) permit. A
Taco Bell
Case No. DRCl009-00049

..
..
provision of this permit requires the City demonstrate efforts to reduce the pollution in
urban stormwater to the Maximum Extent Practicable (MEP).
Finding: Federal and Oregon Department qf Environmental Quality (ODEQ) rules
require the City's MS4 plan address six "Minimum Control Measures." Minimum
Control Measure 5, "Post-Construction Stormwater Management for New Development
and Redevelopment," applies to the, proposed development.
Finding: Minimum Control Measure 5 requires the City of Springfield to develop,
implement and enforce a program to ensure the reduction of pollutants in stormwater
runoff to the MEP. The City must also develop and implement strategies that include a
combination of structural or non-structural Best Management Practices (BMPs)
appropriated for the community.
Finding: Minimum Control Measure 5 requires the City of Springfield use an ordinance
or other regulatory mechanism to address post construction runoff from new and re-
development projects to the extent allowable under State law. Regulatory mechanisms
used by the City include the Springfield Development Code (SDC), the City's
Engineering Design Standards and Procedures Manual (EDSPM) and the future
Stormwater Facilities Master Plan (SFMP).
Finding: As required in Section 4.3-110.E of the SDC, "a development shall be required to
employ drainage management practices approved by the Public Works Director and
consistent with Metro Plan policies and the Engineering Design Standards and Procedures
Manual."
Finding: Section 3.02 of the City's EDSPM states the Public Works Department will
accept, as interim design standards for stormwater quality, water quality facilities
designed pursuant to the policies and procedures of either the City of Portland (BES), or
the Clean Water Services (CWS).
Finding: Section 3.03.3.B of the City's EDSPM states all public and private development
and redevelopment projects shall employ a system of one or more post-developed BMPs
that in combination are designed to achieve at least a 70 percent reduction in the total
suspended solids in the runoff generated by that development. Section 3.03.4.E of the
manual requires a minimum of 50 percent of the non-building rooftop impervious area
on a site shall be treated for stormwater quality improvement using vegetative methods.
Finding: The vegetation proposed for use in the swales will serve as the primary
pollutant removal mechanism for the stormwater runoff, and will remove suspended
solids and pollutants through the processes of sedimentation and filtration. Satisfactory
pollutant removal will occur only when the vegetation has been fully established.
Finding: The plans provided by the applicant show that less than 50% of the non building
rooftop impervioUs area (parking lot in this case) is not being vegetatively treated. It
appears possible to route the runoff currently being directed into the catch basin at the
,northeast comer of the building to the bio-swale at the northeast comer through either a
valley gutter or trench drain. It also appears possible to route the catch basin at the south
east comer into the bio-swale near the drive-through exit. Alternatively the applicant can
provide mechanical treatment to reach the 50% treatment requirement with the individual
system to be approved by the public works department.

1. Condition: Prior to approval of the final site plan, the applicant shall provide an
operations and maintenance plan to the City for review to ensure the long-term
maintenance and operation of the proposed bio-swale. The plan shall designate
operation and maintenance responsibility. Proof of compliance will be a required
element of the operations and maintenance plan.
2. Condition: The final site plan shall show at least 50% of the impervious area will be
vegetatively treated, in accordance with Section 3.03.4.E of the city's EDSPM.
3. Condition: To ensure a fully functioning water quality system and meet objectives of
Springfield's MS4 permit, the Springfield Development Code and the EDSPM, the
proposed private vegetative water quality swale shall be shall be fully vegetated
with all vegetation species established prior to occupancy. Alternatively, if this
condition cannot be met, the applicant shall provide and maintain additional interim
erosion control/water quality measures acceptable to the Public Works Department
that will suffice until such time as the swale vegetation becomes fully established.
TRAFFIC
Finding: Abutting the subject site to the west, a Mohawk Boulevard is a 58-foot wide
paved roadway within a liO-foot wide right of way. It is a iniTIor arterial with three
lane~, improved with curb, gutter, sidewalk, and LPS street lighting. It provides three
motor vehicle lanes (one in each direction, and one turning lane), and one bicycle lane in
each direction. Average daily traffic along Mohawk Boulevard is estimated to be
approximately 16,900 trips per day.
Finding: Based on ITE Land Use Code 934 (Fat-Food Restaurant with Drive-Through
Window) the total trip generation from this developmep.t upon completion of the
proposed development would be as follows:
. Average Weekday = 496.12 trips/lOOO sq. ft. x 2556 = 1268 trips
. PM Peak Hour = 33.84 trips/lOOO sq. ft. x 2556 = 26 trips
Finding: The changes in the orientation of the building has allowed for a deeper
driveway throat and a much longer queuing in the drive through without interfering
with the ingress/ egress of vehicles onto the mall site. The new development creates a
much safer site than the existing layout from a transportation perspective.
Finding: At the exit point of the drive through, the radius of the inside curve near the
"site lighting" (i.e. the curve in which lies the most westerly "Do Not Enter" sign) is
approximately four feet. Using the passenger car design vehicle template from the
AASHTO (American Association of Highway and Transportation Officials) "Green
Book" (See Exhibit 2-3, page 21), it is apparent that a passenger car exiting the drive-
through will strike the inside curb in positioning itself to be in the driveway's right turn
lane.

"
..
..
4. Condition: The final site plan shall show an enlarged inside curve radius at the exit
point of the drive-through lane that will allow for AASHrO's passenger car to
maneuver into the driveways right-turning exit lane without encroaching into the
adjacent left-turning exit lane. '
Finding: To provide for pedestrian and vehicle safety, street lighting is necessary to
illuminate street and sidewalk areas adjacent to the proposed development site to an
adequate level during night time hours. Currently, low pressure sodium lighting has
been installed on power poles along Mohawk Boulevard. This type of street lighting
does not meet current City standards. However, it is not practicable or justifiable to
require the applicant to bring the street lighting on Mohawk Boulevard up to current
standards at this time. It is appropriate to require an improvement agreement for street
lighting so that the property owner pays a proportionate share of costs when the City
upgrades the street lighting system.
5. Condition: Execute and record an Improvement Agreement for street lighting on
Mohawk Boulevard.
Finding: Section 2B.05 of the MUTCD requires a stop sign if engineering judgment
indicates that, among others, the following condition exists: "Intersection of a less
important road with a main road where application of the normal right-of-way rule
would not be expected to provide reasonable compliance with the law."
Finding: As conditioned above, existing and proposed transportation facilities would be
adequate to accommodate additional trips that would be generated by the proposed
development.
Conclusion: As conditioned, the proposal complies with SDC 5.17-125(B).
C. The proposed development shall comply with all applicable public and private design
and construction standards contained'in this Code and other applicable regulations.
Finding: The site is zoned MUC (Mixed Use Commercial)jNodal Development. Uses
allowed in the MUC District require Type II site plan review. The proposed use is an
eat-in restaurant with a drive thru. SDC 3.2-610 lists "Drive-up restaurants", as well as
"sit-down restaurants" as allowed uses in the MUC zone.
Finding: In addition to the Mixed Use design standards contained in SDC 3.2-625, drive-
up restaurants are also subject to Special Design standards contained in Section 4.7-180.
Finding: The proposed development shall comply with the following design standards
contained in the Springfield Development Code:
. Mixed Use design standards (3.2-625)
. Nodal Development standards (3.3-100)
. Special design standards (4.7-180)
SDC3.2-625 Mixed-Use District Development Standards - General
A. Building Design Standards. Intent: New structures and improvements to
fa~ades requiring building permits shall provide architectural relief and interest,
with emphasis at building entrances and along sidewalks, to promote and

..
enhance a comfortable pedestrian scale and orientation. Blank walls shall be
avoided to the maximum extent practicable by complying with the following
minimum requirements. The following standards are intended to be specific and
quantifiable while allowing for fleXibility in design..
B. Building Orientation and Maximum Setbacks. Intent: To the greatest
extent practicable, all new buildings in a mixed-use development shall be
oriented toward both exterior and internal streets in a manner that
accommodates pedestrian comfort, convenience and safety.
G. Pedestrian Amenities. Intent: To provide appropriate pedestrian
amenities in mixed-use developments, pedestrian amenities, including, but not
limited to: benches, omamental paving and public art shall be provided and
durably designed and integrated into an overall design scheme or pattem.
1. All new structures and substantial improvements to existing
buildings shall provide pedestrian amenities, as specified in this
Subsection. The number of pedestrian amenities provided shall comply
with the following sliding scale.
Size of Structure or Number of
Substantial Improvement Amenities
<5,000 sq. ft. 1
2. Acceptable pedestrian amenities include:
b. A public outdoor seating plaza adjacent to, or visible and
accessible from, the street (minimum useable area of 300 square
feet).
c. Sidewalk planters between the sidewalk and building
including stormwater swales.
Finding: The proposed buildIDg contains a variety of design elements that are required
in the MU district. The roofline contains offsets and breaks that are at least 3 feet or
more in height and there are a combination of architectural elements that break up
expanses of single element elevations (offsets, windows, recessed entries, and varied
siding).
Finding: The constraints of the site require the drive thru aisle to be located between the
building and the street. The proposal complies with the intent of the MU district by
increasing the queing distance at the drive thru and separating vehicle and pedestrian
traffic better than the existing development.
Finding: Headlight glare onto Mohawk Blvd. will be minimized with a 3' high
decorative wall and landscaping adjacent to the public sidewalk.
Finding: The proposed building has less than 5,000 sf. Based on this, one pedestrian
amenity is required.
Finding: The proposal includes an outdoor seating plaza and a stormwater swale
adjacent to the sidewalk along Mohawk Blvd.

3.2-620 Mixed Use District Development Standards - Conflicts and
Exemptions
B. Exemption Process.
1. Sections 3.2-625 and 3.2-630 detail a series of design standards that
seek to achieve attractive, pedestrian oriented development where mixed- ,
use is applied. Developers may choose to meet these standards as
prescribed, or they may propose other design ideas which are equal to or
superior in meeting the objective of a particular standard. When a
developer requests an exemption from a required standard, it is their
responsibility to propose an alternative that fulfills the intent of the
standard to the Director's satisfaction. The Director has the authority to
authorize the exceptions and to determine the acceptability of the
alternative the developer proposes.
SDC 3.2-630 Mixed-Use Development Standards-Specific
A. MUC Development Standards.
3. Minimum Floor Area Ratio. AFAR of .30 is required for new
development on lots/parcels greater than 1 acre in the MUC District
outside of the Downtown Mixed Use Area. FAR is defined for this
purpose as the amount of gross floor area of all buildings and structures
on the building lot/ parcel divided by the total lot/ parcel area.
Finding: The proposal complies with the intent of the MUC zone and the Director grants
an exemption to SDC 3.2-630(A). Compliance with the FAR standard is not reasonable
due to existing development.
SDC 3.3-1020 Minimum Density and General Development Standards
The General Development Standards for Mixed-Use described in Section 3.2-625
describe the pedestrian-friendly and transit oriented'design standards that apply
to mixed 1.\se and nodal development. These standards apply to de~elopment
within the ND Overlay District. In addition to those standards found in Section
3.2-625, the following apply:
A. Minimum Density and Floor Area Ratio (FAR).
FAR means the amount of gross floor area of all buildings and structures on a
building lot/ parcel divided by the total lot/ parcel area. A 2 story building that
covers 50 percent of a lot/ parcel would have aFAR of 1.0. Typical suburban
FAR's range from 0.3 to 1.0 in mixed-use centers.
2. Where the base zone is NC, CC, MRC, MUC, or GO, the minimum
floor area ratio (FAR) is .40.
C. Parking Between Buildings and the Street.
1. Automobile parking, driving, and maneuvering areas shall not be
located between the main building and a street.
Case No. DRCl009-00049
9
..
..
Finding: The proposal complies with the intent of the MUC zone and the Director grants
an exemption to SDC 3.3-1020(A)(2) and 3.3-1020(C)(1). Compliance with these standards
is not reasonable due to constraints created by the existing development.
SDC 3.3-1025 Specific Design Standards
B. Specific Development Standards for Commercial, Industrial, and Mixed-
Uses.
Specific development standards for commercial, industrial and mixed-uses
within the ND Overlay District shall conform to those standards specified in
Section 3.2-630.
SDC 4.7-180 Mixed Use Districts
A. Specific development standards for the MUC District shall be the same as
those specified in Section 3.2-310 as an "5" use and listed in applicable
Subsections of Section 4.7-100, and the following:
EXCEPTIONS:
1. Drive-through uses may conflict with safe and convenient movement of
pedestrians and bicycles within MUC Districts. A drive-through use, for the
purposes of this Section, is defined as a business activity involving buying or
selling goods or provision of services wherever one of the parties conducts the
activity from within a motor vehicle. Facilities usually associated with a drive-
through usually involve queuing lines, service windows, service islands, and
service bays for vehicular use. Drive-through uses are therefore not permitted in
MUC Districts unless the use is incidental to -a primary -site use, and when
designed in conformance with the following standards:
a. The drive-through use shall be limited to service windows which
are part of a primary use structure, and no more than 2 queuing lanes.
b. Drive~up facilities shall be designed so that circulation and drive-
up windows are not adjacent to sidewalks or between buildings and the
street, to the maximum extent practicable.
Finding: The tax parcel is developed as a shopping mall and the proposed use occupies a
leased portion of that parcel. In the context of the entire development, the drive thru is not
the primary site use. The proposal otherwise complies with (a) and (b).
Conclusion: The proposal complies with SDC 5.17-125(C).
D. Parking areas and ingress-egress points have been designed to: facilitate vehicular
traffic, bicycle and pedestrian safety to avoid congestion; provide connectivity within
the development area and to adjacent residential areas, transit stops, neighborhood
activity centers, and commercial, industrial and public areas; minimize driveways on
arterial and collector streets as specified in this Code or other applicable regulations and
comply with the ODOT access management standards for State highways.

..
Finding: There are no changes to the existing access to Mohawk Blvd.
Finding: The site plan increases the queing for the drive thru and significantly reduces the
vehicle pedestrian conflicts.
Conclusion: The proposal complies with SDC 5.17-125(D).
E. Physical features, including, but not limited to: steep slopes with' unstable soil or
geologic conditions; areas with susceptibility of flooding; significant clusters of trees
and shrubs; watercourses shown on the WQLW Map and their associated riparian areas;
wetlands; rock outcroppings; open spaces; and areas of historic and/or archaeological
significance, as may be specified in Section 3.3-900 or ORS 97.740-760, 358.905-955 and .
390.235-240; shall be protected as specified in this Code or in State or Federal law.
Finding: The site is within the 1-5 year Time of Travel Zone of the 16th & Q Street well.
. ,
Finding: Based on the comments from the Springfield Utility Board dated December 17,
2009, the requested exemption is granted subject if a wellhead protection sign is placed
in the parking lot.
6. Condition: Prior to occupancy of the building, place a wellhead protection sign in
the parking loti entrance area.
Conclusion: As conditioned, the proposal complies with SDC 5.1-125(E).
DETERMINATION: Based on the evidence in the record, the Director determines the site
plan complies with SDC 5.17-125(AHEI. subject to the Conditions of Approval attached to
this report.
What Needs To Be Done?
SDC 5.17-135 states: "Within 90 days of an affirmative decision by the Approval Authority, a
complete Final Site Plan shall be submitted to the Development Services Department. The
Final Site Plan submittal shall incorporate all approval conditions listed in the staff report. The
Final Site Plan shall become null and void if construction has not begun within two years of
the signing of the Development Agreement required in Section 5.17-140."
