Floodplain PICM Code Amendments
These amendments will include changes prompted by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) requiring the City to adopt short-term rules, aka Pre-Implementation Compliance Measures or PICM, in the Floodplain Overlay District to comply with the Endangered Species Act. The code amendments are directed by FEMA to protect habitat and achieve no net loss measures that will avoid, minimize, and mitigate impacts in the floodplain areas. -
Housing + Design Initiative - Code and Plan Update
The City continues to identify ways to provide more opportunities for housing, all while meeting State requirements for land use planning to more clearly allow housing and more clearly articulate people-oriented design for the public realm. This project will update Springfield’s Development Code and adopted land use plans to reduce barriers to allowing housing in mixed-use districts while also exploring ways the Development Code can include design standards in those districts and beyond. -
Climate-Friendly Areas
Oregon’s Climate-Friendly and Equitable Communities Rules requires some cities, including Springfield, to reduce air pollution by allowing places that enable people to get around by ways other than driving alone. This Climate-Friendly Areas project is one way Springfield is working to meet these needs.
