ISSUE STATEMENT: Lane Council of Governments (LCOG) has analyzed the 2010 Census data for the City of Springfield, and has determined that the majority of Council wards have experienced significant population shifts which may warrant readjustment of the ward boundary lines. Bill Clingman from LCOG has worked with Council on adjusting those boundaries during several work sessions. ATTACHMENTS: Attachment 1: Proposed Final Ward Map DISCUSSION/ FINANCIAL IMPACT: On July 11, 2011 September 26, 2011, and November 14, 2011 Council met in work sessions to review information presented by Mr. Clingman from LCOG regarding 2010 Census data and Council ward boundaries. During the November 14, 2011 work session, Mr. Clingman used interactive software to adjust the boundaries “live” based on Council direction. Council chose to start with the Growth Scenario map and made several adjustments to the boundary lines. Based on those suggested changes, Mr. Clingman has created a proposed final ward map for Council’s final review. Once the final boundaries are determined, staff will prepare a final boundary map for Council ratification after the first of the year. !H !H !H !H !H!H SPR 5 SPR 3 SPR 6 SPR 1 SPR 4 SPR 2 SPR 5 A MAIN I - 5 Q D B I-105 5TH 28TH 42ND MARCOLA CAMP CREEK DAISY E JASPER G CENTENNIAL THURSTONM I L L MCKENZIE VIEW 2ND 21ST 7TH OLYMPIC 58TH 10TH O L D M O H A W K 69TH B O B S T R A U B 31ST S K Y H I G H HILL HARLOW GATEWAY 32ND M 70TH 67TH 14TH 19TH 30TH HAYDEN BRIDGE ASPEN 36TH 48TH 35TH 66TH MC KE NZ IE M C V A Y FAIRVIEW YOLANDA AUGUSTA 57TH LAURA P I O N E E R P A R K W A Y E A S T BLOOMBERG 52ND 18TH HIGH BANKS COMMERCIAL HIGH RANCH INTERNATIONAL H A R V E S T MT VERNON CHAD RAIN BO W O A K S H I R E 23RD FR A NK L IN GARDEN I- 5 O N R A M P WEAVER 26TH M A R T I N L U T H E R K I N G J MAHOGANY MISSY BELTLINE SWEARINGEN TIMBER GAME FARM CLEARWATER ME NLO I-5 OFFRAMP BRACKENFERN 39TH CARUTHERS BILLINGS EA S Y I-105 OFFRAMP CARDINAL WHITSELL DOUTHIT 42ND A 58TH I-5 OFFRAMP I - 5 O N R A M P G A M E F A R M G JASPER HAYDEN BRIDGE 66TH B E City of Springfield Ward RedistrictingP R O P O S E D S C E N A R I O Legend !H Councilors Current Wards UGB WardPopulation Pop Deviation Pop Dev PercentSPR 19,572-328-3.31SPR 29,537-363-3.67SPR 39,743-157-1.59SPR 410,0191191.20SPR 510,1552552.58SPR 610,3774774.82 ±
