SubJ'ect: R Repair & Service Final Site Review Narrative

Attached is the final site review plans for the R Repair & Service property. Below is a
summary of the conditions of approval and how they ha~e been addressed.
In order to ensure adequate emergency vehicle ingress, purchase a Public
Works lock for the manual gate and provide ~ key to Fire Department
administration.
I.
Mr. McDougall will purchase a lock from Heyman's Safe, Lock, and
Security to satisfy this condition.
Prior to commencing work in the public right of way or in a PUE, the
applicant shall obtain a City encroachment pJrmit
Mr. McDougall will obtain an encroachmJnt permit prior to commencing
any work within the public right of way 01 PUE. .
Applicant shall apply for and obtain a Drinking Water Protection permit from
the City of Springfield or an exemption from SUB Water.
2.
3.
Mr. McDougall is working closely with Amy Chinitz at SUB Water to
determine the requirements to meet this c6ndition. We are hoping that
she will allow some minor improvements tb the site without having to
incur the expense of a DWP application.
Prior to Final Site.P~an approval, the applicant shall submit a detailed plan
showing how th~.!::gat transfer well will opertte and drain.
The plan has been revised to attached the boat transfer well to an oil /
water separator that then ties into the storln pressure line. This then is
routed to the bio-swale at the northwest colrner of the property. The
specific oil / water separator has not yet b~en selected, so a detailed plan
will be determined at the time of building berm it.

To ensure a fully functioning water quality system and meet objectives of
Springfield's MS4 permit, the Springfield De1velopment Code and the

vegetated with all vegetation species established prior to apyoval of Final Site Plan.
The plan is for the vegetation to be installed in early fall to allow for growth
prior to the winter rainy season. If for some reason this bn't happen, alternate
erosion control measures will be installed prior to the wihter rains. .
Prior to use the new facilities, the site shall be shown to be Jaded to contain any
runoff; an emergency shut off device between the bios wale 'and catch basin shall be
installed and operational and the bioswale shall be outfitted kith a clay liner to
prevent direct discharge.
7.
The storm water plan has been revised to include (2) manual gate valves in the
system. One between the 2" pressure line and the oil I w~ter separator, and the
other just upstream of the bioswale. This will allow the ~ystem to be closed in
the event of a spill that enters the storm system prior to .teaching the bioswale.
The bioswale will also include a clay layer in the construhion to prevent
percolation into the ground water.
Prior to Final Site Plan approval, the applicant shall relocate the existing shed
structures out of the Public Utility Easements.
Mr. McDougall does not own the shed structures that are currently in the PUE.
However, we have revised the plan to show these sheds rkmoved and Mr.
McDougall will inform the adjacent owners of this requitement.
I
Landscaping shall be installed in compliance with SDC 4.4-105. A landscape plan,
, ..
prepared by an Oregon Landscape Architect, shall be sUbmTed prior to final sign off.
Matt Koehler, LA is preparing a revised landscape plan for the project.
10.
No loading or unloading to serve the site shall be conducted within the street right of
way or on street sidewalks.
A loading zone has been provided for on the site to eliminate the need for
unloading in the right of way. An extruded curb has beeri added between the
loading zone and sidewalk to keep the activity contained [Within the property.
In order to ensure adequate separation between the loading zone and pedestrian
traffic, a curb a minimum of 30 feet long shall be constructed adjacent to and west of
the sidewalk along the loading zone.
An extruded curb has been added to the plan that runs 30 feet between the
,
loading zone and the sidewalk. Breaks in this curb have been provided every 10
feet to allow the current drainage pattern to be maintain~d.
Execute and record an improvement agreement for sidewalkland street lighting on

This is a confusing requirement since sidewalk and street lighting already exists
I
on the frontage this property, so no assessment should be levied on the property.
However, if still required Mr. McDougall will sign this aheement.

In order to meet the minimum driveway throat depth of 18 feet as per SDC Table 4.2-
2, the most northeastern parking stall shall be relocated or rdmoved.
The site plan has been revised to locate the first stall to jeet this requirement.
Provide and maintain 10 ft. clear vision triangles at the cornLs of the site driveways
per SDC Figure 4.2-A.
14.
The site plan has been designed to include the required clear vision areas to meet
the Springfield Development Code.
15.
Parking is being restricted to one side of the street by Fire Department. The parking
shall be restricted on the west side of.the street for length of It he frontage of the site,
o but allowed on the east side.
The site plan has been revised to include "No Parking" signs along the frontage
of the property to meet this condition.
16. The Final Site Plan shall provide for a minimum of ten off s!reet parking stalls that
are both open and accessible for employees and customers that comply with SDC 4.6-
]]5 and 120.
The site plan has been revised to allow for offstreet parking of 10 vehicles. In
o the findings it was noted that over time there has been ari average of 10 vehicles
parked on the property. Our assertion is that an averag~ of 4-5 of the vehicles
are either Mr. McDougall's personal property, or vehiclJs waiting to be picked
up by the customer. . 0 0 I
As previously discussed with this project, space is at a p.Jemium due to the
placement of the existing building. However, we have belen able to provide 7
spaces outside of the fence, with the additional 3 spaces behind the fence.
Although the condition talks of all 10 being open and ac~essible for employees
and customers, we feel that the 7 spaces we can provide 6n the outside of the
fence is more than adequate. Mr. McDougall can park his personal vehicles and
those awaiting customer pickup in the 3 spaces provided behind the fence.
Thank you for the opportunity to submit this final site review plan, and if you have
any questions about the submittal don't hesitate to call.
Sincerely,
Scott Morris
