1. STUDY SESSION
At 6:30 p.m.,Mayor Snider called the Study Session to order.
A. PARK MAINTENANCE FUNDING DISCUSSION
Public Works Director Rager introduced the discussion on park maintenance funding,
explaining that staff were seeking direction from Council regarding their upcoming budget
discussions on October 3 and whether there is more information needed from staff to have
that discussion.
Councilor Newton said she appreciated the information and it's important to her that the
city addresses the park maintenance challenges in the long term,but she has concerns about
how residents would be able to deal with increasing fees. She asked staff if Council does not
think the community can absorb a fee increase in January 2021, what does that look like in
terms of parks maintenance and capital projects. She said it would be important to
communicate to the public the ramifications of these delays in rate increases.
Youth Councilor Calderon asked if the park maintenance fee will affect the utility bill credits
on the Business Meeting agenda following the Study Session. Business Manager Barrett said
that the utility bill relief funding originates from the water and sanitary sewer funds and
would not affect the collection of the parks maintenance fee.
Council President Goodhouse suggested staff should break down the estimated costs and
the impacts of a decrease in anticipated maintenance funding. Mayor Snider clarified that he
was asking staff for more robust storytelling and Council President Goodhouse confirmed.
Councilor Lueb said she's a big supporter of the city's parks and parks staff. She thinks they
need to fundamentally address how parks are funded,particularly through an equity lens. She
said she's unsure that the budget discussion is the place to have this broader discussion
about parks funding,particularly because the Parks Master Plan will not yet be finalized.
Mayor Snider agreed that much of the city is "under-parked." He also echoed the concerns
of Councilor Lueb regarding equity in access to quality park properties across the city and
corresponding maintenance demands.
Councilor Anderson asked a clarifying question.Mayor Snider asked if staff had sufficient
direction and Director Rager agreed. He said staff would be prepared to address the equity
issue at the upcoming budget discussions.
Councilor Newton responded that the Council is more focused on different areas,but she
just wanted to voice her concern over the impacts of raising rates when that happens. Mayor
Snider echoed the delay of rate increases across the city is going to have wide impacts and
that it is relevant for Council to discuss them. Councilor Newton said she was most
TIGARD CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES — September 22, 2020
City of Tigard 1 13125 SW Hall Blvd.,Tigard, OR 97223 www.tigard-or.gov 1 Page 1 of 11
concerned about the narrative presented to the public regarding rate delays and impact on
the city as a whole and Council would benefit from that information.
Staff asked clarifying questions and Council agreed that all future rate increases are in
question at this point. Council President Goodhouse said it would be useful to have
information on the repercussions on the parks system if they delay the rate increases again in
July 2021. Mayor Snider said that was a second to the proposal from Councilor Newton.
B. BRIEFING ON WASHINGTON SQUARE REGIONAL CENTER UPDATE
PROJECT
Senior Planner Shanks explained that the Washington Square Regional Center Plan Update
Project kicked off in February 2020 and is largely on schedule, despite public engagement
delays due to COVID-19. It is expected to wrap up in late 2021.
They are completing this long-range planning project to update the previous 1999 plan.
Since then a lot has changed in how people shop and travel through this regional center,
while the physical condition has not changed much at all. This project will look at the forces
driving the existing conditions and use an equity lens to better address existing inequities in
this area.
Staff have assembled a diverse consulting team with EcoNorthwest as the lead consultant.
They have a stakeholder working group that is large, diverse, and much more representative
than in the past.This area is complicated by its location across multiple jurisdictional
boundaries,including the cities of Tigard and Beaverton as well as Washington County,
Metro, and ODOT. As a result, staff have created a virtual engagement process that includes
a public component.
Thus far, staff have completed a lot of the technical analysis regarding needs, opportunities
and challenges in the study area. Senior Planner Shanks noted demographics in the area
showed a higher concentration of communities of color,more single-person households and
larger households (more than two-person households,which are the predominant household
type in the City of Tigard). The majority of residents in this area, 60 percent,are renters and
not homeowners,which represents 40 percent of the population in the study area.
The study area is highly developed already,which will represent a special challenge in
effecting change. She noted that staff have been careful to ensure their work in the regional
center will not displace those currently residing there, especially since renters are at greater
risk of both residential and economic displacement.
Market conditions are changing, but the Washington Square Mall has remained a successful
suburban mall with land use approvals to redevelop portions of their property in the coming
year. Senior Planner Shanks said the mall property,in addition to other locations, shows
potential for mixed-use development. She explained staff are also analyzing the
infrastructure in the area,including transportation and walkability, to identify barriers to
transit and make recommendations for changes going forward.

Next steps include broader community engagement,further work with the stakeholder
group, as well as further analysis and feasibility testing. Council had no questions but
thanked staff for their thorough analysis and presentation.

6. CONSIDER A RESOLUTION ACCEPTING THE SOUTHWEST CORRIDOR FINAL
CONCEPTUAL DESIGN REPORT (CDR)
Project Manager Pagenstecher introduced the staff team from TriMet, including Jeb Doran,
Senior Project Manager, and Guy Berm,Transit-Oriented Development Program Manager. He
explained that the Council was required to adopt the SW Corridor project Conceptual Design
Report (CDR) as stated in the city's memorandum of understanding (MOU) with TriMet related
to this project.
He said that some staff concerns are outstanding,but that there has been progress made toward
reaching a mutually agreeable solution. Project Manager Pagenstecher explained that included in
the proposed resolution is an invitation to TriMet to come before Council prior to completion
of the 60 percent designs. Although not all of the Council's concerns have been addressed
sufficiently, he said the two organizations were working well together toward that common goal
of resolution.
TriMet's Director of Capital Projects Dave Unsworth went over the SW Corridor Project as a
whole,including project goals and impacts for the community. TriMet's Senior Project Manager
Jeb Doran presented the Final CDR, following the alignment of the rail line from its entry into
the city to its terminus at Bridgeport. He emphasized transit-oriented development (TOD),
multi-modal transit and pedestrian access to rail. He highlighted the new TOD programs
developed at TriMet to work with partner agencies to support TOD around station areas.
Mr. Doran said the TriMet team has been working with city staff to resolve the remaining issues
with the Hall Boulevard station and implement the city's vision. Since the Operations and
Maintenance facility will also be located in this area,they view this area as a centerpiece of the
project.
TriMet's TOD Program Manager Guy Benn said the city and TriMet have similar objectives to
deliver mixed-use,mixed-income,TOD adjacent to the station areas. He said they stand aligned
with Tigard's vision to integrate the Hall Boulevard station with the downtown area.The CDR
plan does not represent the full implementation of the TOD plan,which will continue to be
integrated into the designs as they develop.
TIGARD CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES — September 22, 2020
City of Tigard 1 13125 SW Hall Blvd.,Tigard, OR 97223 www.tigard-or.gov 1 Page 4 of 11
Mr. Doran said they will continue to work with staff and seek input from the public as they
move toward 60 percent design and move into 100 percent design in the coming years. Mr.
Unsworth wrapped up with an anticipated timeline for the project,pending passage of Metro's
transportation bond in November.
• Mayor Snider said a lot of changes have been made to the plans for this project since the
Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS). He said city staff have been trying to get
information from the pending Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) report and
have not been able to do so. Mr. Unsworth reviewed a number of documents that had been
shared with city staff and explained that the FEIS was a Federal Transit Administration
document not belonging to any one agency. TriMet is working with a legal team and
consultant that have requested many revisions to the EIS and only after the document has
been approved by their legal team will they be willing to share the information. He added
that there are many agencies and subdivisions thereof that need to sign off on various
aspects of this project,which makes it very complicated, and that Tigard is only one of
several cities that are part of this project.
Mayor Snider asked if the FTA was preventing members of the project team,including city
staff, from seeing the FEIS information. Mr. Unsworth said staff have been in all the
conversations about traffic and design. Mayor Snider stated that members of the public
should have the ability to access this information,which is leading to design decisions, for
example at the Boones Ferry station site. He asked Mr. Unsworth if he supported city staff
reaching out to the FTA for that information. Mr. Unsworth said staff could compile a list
of questions,but that he does not support staff contacting the FTA.
• Councilor Lueb asked staff about the proposed resolution and whether they were
comfortable with Council approving the CDR as it currently stands given those outstanding
issues. Project Planner Pagenstecher said that because of the good working relationship
between staff,he does think they will reach a resolution on these items.
• Councilor Newton said she had a similar question and appreciated staff's response. She
reiterated that it is important to the Tigard community that the Hall Street station be
integrated into the downtown area and she would like project team staff to be mindful of
that. She did feel comfortable approving the report knowing that staff felt comfortable that
resolutions on outstanding issues would be reached.
• Youth Councilor Calderon said he liked the station area designs, including a lot of pedestrian
access and bike locks. He agreed the city was very climate-conscious and he would like to
know the climate impacts of the project.
• Councilor Anderson said they have made a lot of progress and he would like to emphasize
the importance of the Hall Street station.
• Council President Goodhouse said the city has been involved in this project for a long time
and the city's concerns have never changed and have never been addressed. He said staff are
asking Council to trust TriMet,but where is the trust. Mr. Doran said the CDR was a
snapshot in time. Many of these issues have evolved and while they may not appear in the
document's images, the plans have progressed. He stressed the planning phase was a multi-
year process,it may take several years to address all the concerns within the design,but that
what matters is that Tigard ascribes to the project's value statements as presented in the
report.
TIGARD CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES — September 22, 2020
City of Tigard 1 13125 SW Hall Blvd.,Tigard, OR 97223 www.tigard-or.gov 1 Page 5 of 11
• Mayor Snider explained that Tigard has never received assurances that city concerns will be
addressed and that makes it hard to approve when there are only a few opportunities for the
Council to weigh in throughout the entire project.
• Council President Goodhouse asked if TriMet could revise the report and bring it back for
approval. He said he was not sure he could support a document with no assurances from
TriMet that certain needs will be met,when he wants to know it will be done right. Mr.
Doran reassured the Council they are committed to doing it right and there will be many
more opportunities for the city to weigh in as the project moves forward.
• Councilor Newton asked TriMet staff to point to the value statements Mr. Doran had
mentioned and he pointed Council to each of the station area sheets in Chapter 7 of the
CDR document. Councilor Newton located the pages beginning on page 170.
There was discussion about whether the Council needed to approve the CDR and Mr. Unsworth
said TriMet did not need the city's approval and they would not bring an updated report, since
the CDR is a point-in-time report of where they are today. Mayor Snider asked further clarifying
questions about whether TriMet desired Council action on the item tonight.
Mayor Snider asked city staff if they thought Council should approve the resolution accepting
the CDR. Project Planner Pagenstecher recommended the adoption and stated the resolution
includes another check-in opportunity to follow-up. He said there would be no practical effect
to not accepting the report. Community Development Director Asher said he supports the staff
recommendation and thinks Council should approve the resolution if they support moving
forward with working together on outstanding issues. He emphasized the CDR document would
not change in the future, so delaying approval would not lead to any updates.
Councilor Newton made a motion to approve Resolution No. 20-45. Councilor Anderson
seconded. Mayor Snider invited Council discussion.
• Councilor Newton reminded the Council the document would not change, and the work
now was to work with TriMet to reach a resolution.
• Council President Goodhouse said he still had concerns approving the report with no
assurances or actions from TriMet to reach a solution.
• Councilor Lueb echoed Councilor Newton that the report would not be updated and the
design will continue to evolve as the process moves forward.
• Youth Councilor Calderon said Council should continue to seek the information staff need
and working with TriMet to improve the Hall Street station.
• Councilor Anderson said he supported the approval of the report as staff have confidence in
the relationship with TriMet.
Mayor Snider asked the City Recorder to read the number and title of the resolution.
Resolution No. 20-45: A RESOLUTION ACCEPTING THE SOUTHWEST CORRIDOR

7. CONSIDER APPROVAL OF THE FINAL REFRESHED STRATEGIC PLAN
Senior Management Analyst Hendrix explained that members of the strategic plan guidance
team representing departments across the city have been working to develop a refreshed
strategic plan for the city. She said they had received a lot of public input on the plan and
implemented several changes as a result,reviewing the robust public engagement process. Direct
survey responses from staff and residents found that 91 percent of respondents supported the
refreshed strategic vision and 92 percent supported the refreshed strategic priorities.
Senior Human Resources Business Partner Leos presented strategic priority one, to set the
standard for excellence in public service and customer experience. Project Planner Pagenstecher
presented strategic priority two,to create a well-connected, attractive, and accessible pedestrian
network. Economic Development Manager Purdy presented strategic priority three, to ensure
development and growth support the vision.
Senior Management Analyst Hendrix summarized next steps,including using the vision to guide
and align department work plans, seeking funding options to pursue actions, and continue
communicating with the public on progress toward implementing the plan.
• Mayor Snider said the document took a village and said Council appreciated everyone's
contributions.
• Council President Goodhouse thanked staff for their excellent work.
• Councilor Newton echoed previous comments. She suggested they add more metrics related
to the external customer experience under strategic priority one.

Mayor Snider announced the City Council would convene as the Local Contract Review Board for the next
agenda item.
8. LOCAL CONTRACT REVIEW BOARD - CONSIDER A CONTRACT AWARD FOR
ADMINISTRATIVE RELATED SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS AND TECHNOLOGY
SERVICES TO TYLER TECHNOLOGIES
Purchasing and Contracts Manager Moody outlined the contract agreement terms and the
negotiation process using a cooperative agreement. Information Technology Manager Nolop
provided a brief history of the software systems at the city,noting that they are siloed and do not
communicate with one another. In order to implement the performance audit measures and the
Information Technology strategic plan, staff believe it is necessary to move forward with a unified
data platform across departments in a multi-year project. The budget requests have been adjusted
to staff a project team to lead this large project.
• Mayor Snider asked IT Manager Nolop to comment on the context for the financial
commitment being made by the city. Mr. Nolop explained that as part of this transition, the city
will no longer be paying to maintain its own data platform and the associated personnel costs
that come with that. Mayor Snider asked who owns the data after the contract expires and Mr.
Nolop responded that the city would retain ownership of the data and Tyler Technologies
would have to provide the city with the data if there was ever a need to terminate the
agreement.
• Council President Goodhouse said it was going to be great to have the city on the same system
and able to communicate. He is interested in seeing the data that comes from the new software
capabilities and seeing how the city can become more efficient and streamlined.
• Councilor Newton thanked staff for the presentation and said she was looking forward to
seeing the software become integrated across departments. She asked about the adding of
additional modules to the contract moving forward. Mr. Nolop said his team would work with
the department staff to make those business decisions as to whether to implement new
software modules, such as e-ticketing and agenda management.
• Youth Councilor Calderon said he thought this transition would be helpful for the city.
• Councilor Lueb echoed the need to help staff be more effective in their work and access
additional data. She was excited that this project would move the city forward.
Director Lueb made a motion to approve the Contract Award for Administrative Related
Software Solutions and Technology Services to Tyler Technologies and authorize the City
Manager to execute the contract. Director Goodhouse seconded. Chair Snider asked the City
Recorder to conduct a roll call vote.

10. CONSIDER A RESOLUTION TO UPDATE THE TIGARD AID UTILITY BILLING
ASSISTANCE PROGRAM
Finance and Information Services Director LaFrance said the resolution before them would
update the utility billing aid assistance program implemented after the COVID-19 pandemic in
March 2020. At last week's business meeting, Council requested an additional component to the
program to incorporate residents of the city who rent in multi-family housing. Staff have been
working with legal and bond counsel and rate analyst to ensure the proposal minimizes risk to
the city. He expects to have that completed and back before Council in the next couple of
weeks.
Council President Goodhouse asked a clarifying question regarding back pay benefits to
businesses. Director LaFrance confirmed businesses who qualify will retroactively receive the
full$500 benefit.
Councilor Newton made a motion to approve Resolution No. 20-47. Councilor Anderson

2. COUNCIL BRIEFING ON THE ELIMINATION OF LIBRARY FINES TO ALIGN WITH
WASHINGTON COUNTY COOPERATIVE LIBRARY SERVICES (WCCLS)
Library Director Bernard provided a presentation to the Council regarding the proposed
elimination of library fines by Washington County Cooperative Library Services (WCCLS). She
explained that these finds represent a small fraction of the library's revenue,while
disproportionately affecting those in need within the community. Additionally, removing fines will
improve the public's interactions with the library. The net revenue represents a little over $7,000 in
revenue for the city. If passed by the Washington County Board of Commissioners, the
elimination of fines would go into effect at the beginning of 2021. Staff are asking Council to
convey their support for the proposal.
Mayor Snider said he would support the proposal and polled the Council:
• Councilor Lueb said the Library Advisory Board was in support and she was as well.
• Council President Goodhouse said he was in favor but asked what happened to items
never returned. Director Bernard said they send a bill for the materials if they are never
returned.

• Youth Councilor Calderon was in support.
• Councilor Newton was in support and thanked staff for the presentation.

3. CONSIDER A RESOLUTION ADOPTING A UTILITY BILL RELIEF PROGRAM FOR
RENTERS
Finance and Information Services Director LaFrance explained this program was a four-part
change: (1)it repeals and replaces the existing program enacted through Resolution No. 20-47,
(2) expands the program to incorporate aid for renters or leasers, (3) continues the current
program which is set to end January 1, 2021, (4) extends the waiver of late fees and water shut-
off actions,which they are recommended be extended until April 2021.
Director LaFrance explained that planned aid for renters will be $100 per month,with
businesses that lease space receiving up to $500 in aid per month. Previous legal concerns
regarding using water funds for utility aid were determined to be low risk. Mayor Snider pointed
out this aid would be available to any customer who receives a City of Tigard bill,including non-
water customers.
Councilor Newton asked a clarifying question regarding the effective date and said she was in
support. Councilor Lueb said she thought it was great they were able to include additional
members of the community.
Councilor Newton made a motion to approve Resolution No. 20-50. Council President
Goodhouse seconded. Mayor Snider asked the City Recorder to read the number and title of the
resolution.

AMENDMENT TO THE CITY CENTER TAX INCREMENT FINANCING ('lIF)
DISTRICT PLAN
Redevelopment Manager Farrelly gave a brief presentation to the Council on the process for a
substantial amendment to the City Center Tax Increment Financing (TIF) District Plan. He said
the current indebtedness is $22 million and it will sunset in FY 2026-27. A substantial
amendment would increase the maximum indebtedness and extend the duration of the district.
TIGARD CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES — October 20, 2020
City of Tigard 1 13125 SW Hall Blvd.,Tigard, OR 97223 www.tigard-or.gov 1 Page 2 of 6
He explained that staff identified six projects that could be added to the District Plan through a
substantial amendment,including a downtown connectivity plan,public space investments like
Universal Plaza, and station area improvements around the SW Corridor. The projects are
currently estimated at $20 million.
There are several options to choose from if Council decides to go for a substantial amendment.
On the current timeline,they would be going to the ballot in May 2021.
Councilor Newton asked Mr. Farrelly to comment on why May was important because of
timing. He said the timing of some of the projects makes it better to go ahead and secure the
financing and reduce future uncertainty.
Councilor Lueb asked Mr. Farrelly to provide an overview of TIF. He explained that the
amendment would not increase people's taxes and Tigard is one of a few jurisdictions in Oregon
that require voter approval for such amendments.
Mayor Snider announced they will reconvene as the City Council for the remaining agenda items.
5. RECEIVE BRIEFING ON HALL BOULEVARD JURISDICTIONAL TRANSFER
PROCESS
Senior Transportation Planner Roth introduced Matt Freitag from the Oregon Department of
Transportation (ODOT) as he described the proposed jurisdictional transfer of a portion of Hall
Boulevard. He said that should the city take over ownership of this segment,it would help the
city realize strategic goals in the downtown area and around the proposed SW Corridor rail line.
He said the segment in question spans three miles from Locust Street to Durham Road. It is an
arterial roadway of two to five lanes being traveled by 17,000 vehicles per day. City concerns are
primarily due to the quality of the pavement and roadway surface generally. Mr. Roth explained
that jurisdiction over Hall Blvd. would allow the city more control to realize visions in the
downtown area in addition to more certainty in future planning efforts.
In Spring 2020, staff commissioned a condition assessment study to assess the current condition
and what would be required to bring the roadway to a status of good repair. Mr. Roth said the
city and ODOT have been working together to help provide data for this study and more
recently have been working to develop a Memorandum of Understanding(MOU).The MOU
would set out a work plan for both agencies to follow should both decide to move forward with
an Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) with ODOT.
• Mayor Snider asked about the segment of Hall that extends north of Locust Street to Scholls
Ferry Road. Mr. Roth said that a broader conversation will need to occur. Matt Freitag said
that the segment north of Locust Street is under the jurisdiction of the county and not under
ODOT control.
• Councilor Lueb said the condition of Hall Blvd is a major complaint of citizens and she
asked if the state of good repair would meet the city's current standards under the pavement
management index. Mr. Roth said that taking over jurisdiction would negatively impact the
city's pavement condition index (PCI). There needs to be further discussions about how to
get the road up to a state of good repair.
TIGARD CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES — October 20, 2020
City of Tigard 1 13125 SW Hall Blvd.,Tigard, OR 97223 www.tigard-or.gov 1 Page 3 of 6
• Mayor Snider asked if they would require a PCI of 80. Mr. Roth said he could not provide a
value, but that he imagines they would require the road to match the PCI of the city at large
before a jurisdictional transfer could occur.
• Councilor Newton asked about funding options and at what point in this process they will
begin laying out specifics regarding a financing plan. Mr. Roth said that it would be a point
of negotiation in the IGA and Matt Freitag agreed.
• Councilor Anderson asked Mr. Freitag what their attitude was toward a transfer. He
confirmed they were open to a transfer,mostly because it does not function as a state
highway anymore.
• Council President Goodhouse mentioned the legislature's discussion on orphan highways
and potential funding. Mr. Roth said he was aware of the program and the timing may not
align with this transfer.
• Youth Councilor Calderon said it was a bumpy road.
Mayor Snider polled the Council, and all were in favor of staff work moving forward.
6. CONSIDER A RESOLUTION OF NECESSITY RELATED TO EASEMENT
ACQUISITION FOR THE FANNO CREEK TRAIL
Project Manager Morris said this project would build three new segments of the Fanno Creek
Trail and improve one existing segment. Funding is coming from federal sources but
administered by ODOT. The city has many existing easements but will need more to construct
these segments in addition to temporary construction easements.This resolution would establish
the project need and lay the groundwork for condemnation should the need arise.
Councilor Anderson made a motion to approve Resolution No. 20-51. Councilor Newton
seconded. Mayor Snider asked the City Recorder to read the number and title of the resolution.
Resolution No. 20-51: A RESOLUTION DECLARING THE NEED TO ACQUIRE

on securing a water source. Now that is determined through the Lake Oswego-Tigard (LOT)
partnership and so the update can turn to important system improvements. He introduced Heidi
Springer and Candace Coleman from consultant team Murray Smith,who would be presenting
the information to Council.
Candace Coleman said the project included a water system analysis,including supply,treatment,
delivery, and ASR wells. The plan contemplates the water supply and projected demand in order
to evaluate capacity, assess condition and vulnerabilities, and identify improvements to provide
the desired level of service. The distribution system analysis looks at operational efficiency,
pressure flows, storage and pumping capacity, facility condition,water age and quality.
Ms. Coleman reviewed the need for pipe renewal and replacement program to protect against
damage from aging infrastructure. Executive Manager Goodrich described the recent water main
break on Greenfield in Tigard as an example of the consequences of not maintaining the pipes
and other system infrastructure. Ms. Coleman said the WSMP plan will also evaluate seismic
resiliency,including a strategy for protection and a 50-year seismic CIP.
Executive Manager Goodrich said staff would be returning to Council in November with more
detailed information. In December, Council will consider approval of the MSWP document. He
added that the rate study and cost of service analysis and System Development Charge (SDC)
methodology updates are coming up and he hopes this project will be complete by that time.
Councilor Anderson said this was an important project with a lot of moving parts and they're
excited to see it move forward. Councilors Lueb and Newton concurred.
Council President Goodhouse was concerned that the Willamette River water intake facility was
not included in this plan, as well as a couple of emergency water sources. Ms. Coleman said they
had been considering all these potential sources. Executive Manager Goodrich said that water
supply interties and supplemental supply for emergencies are vital to the water system and come
into the plan within the water supply analysis. Council President Goodhouse asked the
document include these sources and Executive Manager Goodrich agreed. Mayor Snider
concurred these should be included, even if some sources are currently blocked by the city
charter. Both Mayor Snider and Council President Goodhouse emphasized that the city needs to
be transparent about the investment the city has made in those alternate water sources.
8. NON-AGENDA ITEMS
Mayor Snider noted two items of public comment received from Michael Brewin regarding
urban renewal and four Universal Plaza project haikus.
9. ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT
Interim City Manager Nyland provided a robust administrative report. Highlights of the report
included:
• Two of the Public Safety Advisory Board (PSAB) candidates have dropped out and one did
not respond to the supplemental questionnaire, so there is a total of 13 profiles on next
week's agenda;
• The Leadership Team participated in a two-day training as part of the city's anti-racism
action plan;
• There are six openings on boards and committee currently;

• Focused strategic communications efforts, particularly on Nextdoor website; and
• Successful debt service bonds refinancing that will reduce the amount taxpayers pay in
interest.
Mayor Snider added that the Tigard Chamber of Commerce is declining a seat on PSAB due to
the time required. He recommended maintaining the size and balance of the group by adding a
seventh voting community member from the current applicant pool. He also said that he was
recommending John Trinh from Luke-Dorf,Inc. as the mental health community
representative.

look through the applicant pool for a member who meets that requirement.

TIGARD CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES — October 27, 2020
City of Tigard 1 13125 SW Hall Blvd.,Tigard, OR 97223 www.tigard-or.gov 1 Page 1 of 11
• Councilor Newton asked if Valerie Sasiki would be a good member to represent the
local business perspective. Mayor Snider asked if she supported the initial proposal
to appoint the five members with the most community votes. She said yes,with the
inclusion of Ms. Sasiki, and Mayor Snider confirmed.
• Councilor Lueb echoed Councilor Newton on Ms. Sasiki,agreeing that she could fill
the business perspective space. She said she whole-heartedly supported those five
members.
• Councilor Anderson said he supported it since there was an obvious breakpoint
between them and the rest of the group.
• Youth Councilor Calderon agreed they should appoint them due to their exceptional
applications.
• Council President Goodhouse said he agreed with the appointments of Thurman
Landers,Danny Rauda,Jimmy Brown, and Valerie Sasiki. He proposed appointing
John Gerhard. Mayor Snider asked where Justin Low was on his analysis. Council
President Goodhouse said he was a maybe and asked if they were debating. Mayor
Snider explained that he put forth a proposal that all other Council members have
agreed. Council President Goodhouse said that if everyone else is on board then it
was worked for him. He agreed Low had great responses but was wondering if he
was too politically partisan. There was a brief discussion and Council President
Goodhouse agreed to the Mayor's proposal.
Mayor Snider reminded Council they needed two additional members and two alternates.
• Council President Goodhouse said that Jeff Mott would be a good representative for
the business community. His second choice would be Valerie Sasiki.
• Councilor Anderson said his ranking mirrored that of the community, so John
Gerhard and Justus Rogers were the next two. He suggested they may want to
appoint more female members to round out the group.
• Councilor Lueb suggested John Gerhard and Sheherazade Weyland.Although Ms.
Weyland was young, she felt her crisis call experience would be a valuable
perspective.
• Councilor Newton suggested Sheherazade Weyland and echoed Councilor Lueb's
comments. Next in her ranking was John Gerhard and then Patty Lofgren.
• Youth Councilor Calderon suggested John Gerhard, Sheherazade Weyland, and Patty
Lofgren.
• Mayor Snider said he was proposing Jeff Mott,John Gerhard, Sheherazade and Patty
Lofgren. He said he was feeling consensus around the group of people and
wondered if they could move on to discussing who should be full members versus
alternate ones.

Lofgren, Sheherazade Weyland,Nick Jarmer. He said he could come to consensus
on the four other applicants Council had identified:Jeff Mott,John Gerhard,
Sheherazade Weyland and Patty Lofgren.
• Mayor Snider asked if Council wanted to consider Shaun Stuhldryer to be a member.
Councilor Newton said she had Shaun Stuhldryer rated a lot higher than Jeff Mott,
but the rest of the Council may have a different perspective She felt Mr. Stuhldryer
expressed more lived experience in his application. Mayor Snider felt Mr. Mott had a
different way of thinking about things and would bring a different perspective.
TIGARD CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES — October 27, 2020
City of Tigard 1 13125 SW Hall Blvd.,Tigard, OR 97223 www.tigard-or.gov 1 Page 2 of 11
• There was discussion on if the business representative would be appointed separately
or include them as one of the seven community members. Mayor Snider polled the
Council and there was consensus they did not need to identify the business
representative separately but would include them with the seven community
members.
• Councilor Newton asked who they were considering for the four remaining
positions. Mayor Snider recited the list:John Gerhard, Sherazade Weyland, Patty
Lofgren,Jeff Mott and Shaun Stuhldryer.
• Council discussed unique perspectives available in the applicant pool. Mayor Snider
advocated for the unique perspective of Ms.Weyland and proposed she be a voting
member. He polled Council and all members agreed by a show of thumbs.
• Councilor Lueb proposed Patty Lofgren as the final voting member, saying she
brought extra diversity as a teacher and community member.
o Youth Councilor Calderon said he had ranked Mr. Gerhard higher,but Ms.
Lofgren was close after that, so either applicant was fine with him.
o Councilor Newton said she supported Patty Lofgren for the reasons
Councilor Lueb expressed.
o Councilor Anderson said he had Mr. Gerhard, then Ms. Lofgren, so he was
fine with choosing Ms. Lofgren. He said it would then be four men, three
women.
o Councilor Lueb added that she had ranked Ms. Lofgren higher than Mr.
Gerhard because they already had two attorneys on the advisory board and
Ms. Lofgren would bring a different perspective and occupation. Mayor
Snider added there would also be the municipal court judge, another
attorney.
o Councilor Anderson said he liked Ms. Lofgren's CERT experience.
o Council President Goodhouse said he had Mr. Stuhldryer and Mr. Gerhard
as his desired voting members, but Ms. Lofgren was an alternate. He said he
was unsure where Mr. Mott would fit in.
o Mayor Snider suggested Patty Lofgren be a voting member and Jeff Mott will
be a non-voting, alternate member. He polled members of the Council and
all agreed verbally with that proposal.
• Mayor Snider asked who wanted to make an argument for either Mr. Stuhldryer or
Mr. Gerhard as the final alternate member.
o Councilor Anderson said Mr. Gerhard got 30 more community votes than
Mr. Stuhldryer.
o Councilors Lueb and Newton said they were supportive of John Gerhard as
the last appointment as a non-voting member.
o Youth Councilor Calderon agreed.
o Council President Goodhouse agreed.
Mayor Snider said no one applied formally for the mental health position, but John Trinh of
Luke-Dorf, Inc. a.k.a. New Narrative has expressed interest in being appointed. Mayor
Snider proposed he be appointed as the advisory board's mental health representative.
Councilor Lueb said we were lucky to have him as a community member and to show
interest in this effort.
Mayor Snider discussed the Council liaison to the PSAB. He proposed Councilor Newton
serve as the representative on the advisory board. He asked if there were any major concerns
TIGARD CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES — October 27, 2020
City of Tigard 1 13125 SW Hall Blvd.,Tigard, OR 97223 www.tigard-or.gov 1 Page 3 of 11
from Council and there were none expressed. Councilor Newton said she was enthused and
inspired by the applications and knows it will be a lot of work. Mayor Snider polled the
Council and there was unanimous support through a show of thumbs.
Interim City Manager Nyland said staff will be notifying the applicants soon and Council will
consider the formal appointments in November.
Council President Goodhouse asked about the representative from the Tigard Chamber of
Commerce and asked if the Council could reach back out to encourage their participation in
the advisory board. Mayor Snider said the Chamber CEO was clear that the Board of
Directors and staff declined to participate at that level. Mayor Snider agreed it would have
been nice to have them at the table,but they will continue to be involved in a smaller
capacity.

6. HIRING CRITERIA FOR TIGARD'S MUNICIPAL JUDGE
Human Resources Director Bennett explained that the city's 30-year Municipal Court judge has
provided notice he will be preparing to retire at the end of the year. She described the process
they will use to hire a replacement for the position. Staff are proposing they run a full
recruitment process through the human resources department (HR),bringing finalists before
Council. Council could request less or more involvement in the hiring of the Municipal Court
Judge.
Mayor Snider asked about the hiring criteria and Ms. Bennett explained they did not have an
existing job description and so they had to create a job description for the position. This is the
hiring criteria they would like Council to review. Most requirements are set by statute or city
code and so cannot be changed.
Mayor Snider asked Council for any questions or comments:
• Council President Goodhouse said he would like this hiring process to mirror that of the
City Manager hiring process, requiring greater City Council involvement.
• Councilor Lueb said she agreed with having Council be more involved in the hiring process.
• Youth Councilor Calderon said Council involvement was always good and he would support
it.
• Councilor Anderson said he would favor the staff recommendation, but he would be okay
with greater involvement.
• Councilor Newton said she too was more inclined to go with the staff recommendation but
was fine if others felt greater involvement was important.
• Mayor Snider asked if staff were confident this position was a large enough Full-Time
Equivalent (FTE). Central Services Director Robinson responded that they are not holding
in person court at this time. They hope that the next six months will help them assess the
workload for the position but believe the current FTE (0.5-0.65) was sufficient for now.
Mayor Snider said he was uneasy about that as far as the impacts on recruitment. Director
Robinson said they would make it clear this was a starting FTE and it may increase with
time,but that there was not enough work for a full FTE at this time.
Mayor Snider asked if Council President Goodhouse and Councilor Lueb were willing to be the
two Councilors with greater involvement in the hiring process and they agreed.
TIGARD CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES — October 27, 2020
City of Tigard 1 13125 SW Hall Blvd.,Tigard, OR 97223 www.tigard-or.gov 1 Page 6 of 11
Council President Goodhouse said he would like to emphasize the flexibility of the person to
increase to a full FTE. HR Director Bennett said they have discussed how to make the posting
clear the time may increase, and applicants should be able to accommodate that.
7. INFORMATIONAL PUBLIC HEARING: CONSIDER A RESOLUTION AMENDING
THE MASTER FEES AND CHARGES SCHEDULE
A. Mayor Snider opened the public hearing.
B. Mayor Snider announced that anyone may offer testimony.Written comments were due at
4:30 p.m. and those wishing to testify via phone could call 503-966-4101 to be put in the
queue.
C. Staff Report—
Business Manager Barrett recalled Council has had many discussions over the past few
months regarding the timing of the utility rate increases and the additional funding for the
parks maintenance operations. The current utility rate increases are scheduled for January 1,
2021 and Council is interested in other options due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Staff have
prepared information for Council to consider:
• Scenario for postponement of rate increases until July 1, 2021, same rate pushed out one
year later;
• Scenario for postponement of rate increases until July 1, 2021 and combined with
estimated FY 2022 scheduled rate increases; as well as
• The monthly cost of postponing utility rate increases.
Business Manager Barrett said staff need a decision tonight if Council would like to move
forward with the January 1, 2021 rate increases as scheduled to be able to mount a successful
communications plan.
In terms of parks maintenance funding, three positions are currently being funded by
reserves, but the Budget Committee has signaled the desire to have a conversation about
long-term funding for these three staff. Staff are recommending the rate increases be
implemented as scheduled and the parks and recreation fee (PARF) be increased by
$1.52/edu to fund the three parks maintenance positions.
Mayor Snider invited questions from the Council:
• Councilor Newton asked a clarifying question regarding the total rate increase proposed
in the staff recommendation. Business Manager Barrett said there is no catch-up, they
are adopted rates Council put into effect in June 2020. It would resume regular rate
increases moving forward.
• Council President Goodhouse asked about the length of the current utility aid program.
Finance and Information Services Director LaFrance explained that the current program
was extended until June 30, 2021. Mayor Snider added that was an important point
regarding whether to move forward with utility rate increases generally. Specifically, that
a program already exists to help those struggling due to COVID-19 impacts.
D. Public Testimony—None.
E. Response to testimony by staff—None.
F. Mayor Snider closed the public hearing.
G. Council Discussion and Consideration: Resolution No. 20-54
TIGARD CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES — October 27, 2020
City of Tigard 1 13125 SW Hall Blvd.,Tigard, OR 97223 www.tigard-or.gov 1 Page 7 of 11
• Council President Goodhouse increaspointed out the aid program was to show Council
has already addressed helping those in need of relief. For the system to stay safe and up
to date,he felt Council needed to move forward with rate increases.
• Councilor Newton thought the rates needed to be increased,but she was concerned
about the messaging as it stood. She suggested staff needs to be more specific in the way
they are communicating with the public. She felt strongly they needed stronger
messaging about maintaining infrastructure before implementing increases and thought
the materials needed to be simpler and more specific.
• Councilor Lueb reviewed the multiple scenarios provided by staff and she was in support
of putting off the increase and then implementing both January and July increases in July
2021. She emphasized the importance of the Parks Master Plan in taking a holistic look
at parks maintenance needs and did not support an increase in parks fees at this time.
• Mayor Snider said it was counterintuitive to him that they would benefit financially by
compounding the rate increase at the later July 1 date. Management Analyst Rico said
that it was because the city forgoes the additional revenue in the first scenario but in the
second scenario the forgone revenue of the delayed increase is made up in the July
increase and therefore the cumulative six-year impact would be better in the second
scenario.
• Council President Goodhouse said he would not want a double increase in July not
knowing the condition of the economy. There was further discussion on this point and
Mayor Snider emphasized the psychology of the double increase.
• Councilor Anderson said he was on board with a full-year delay,with a double increase
in July and the addition to the PARF.
• Youth Councilor Calderon asked for clarification on Councilor Lueb's proposal and she
said it was the third scenario proposed in the staff materials.
• Councilor Newton said that would give them an opportunity to do robust
communication around these rate increases. She asked Director LaFrance if these
increases would impact the city's bond worthiness. He explained that they have received
favorable bond ratings and regular rate increases are one of the management factors they
look at in that determination. He said a brief delay would not be damaging, but
continuing delays in increases moving forward could become impactful. He added they
do not know who will be on Council at the time the next rate increases come before
Council.
• Council President Goodhouse said it worried him to wait to implement the rate increases
and he was concerned about the optics of double increases.
• Mayor Snider said he shared similar concerns and said it would be a different situation if
there was no aid program in place.
• Councilor Newton did not disagree with their points but thought they were missing a
major component in communications. Right now,people are struggling and the message
about why this increase is necessary is not out there.
• Mayor Snider said that could be corrected between now and January.There was further
discussion regarding the communications plan and Communications Coordinator Grass
weighed in on how staff could improve communications surrounding these increases and
their value to the community. Mayor Snider asked Councilor Newton if those additions
would impact her support.
• Councilor Newton said she still thought the parks and recreation fee should not be
increased at this time.
TIGARD CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES — October 27, 2020
City of Tigard 1 13125 SW Hall Blvd.,Tigard, OR 97223 www.tigard-or.gov 1 Page 8 of 11
• Council President Goodhouse said he was concerned with kicking the can down the
road on the parks fee when they are so behind.
• Mayor Snider said they have been having this parks maintenance funding discussion for
years.
• Councilor Anderson said he could support a January 1 fee increase with better messaging
on the utility bill assistance program.
• Councilor Lueb said she stood behind her original opinion.
• Councilor Newton said she did not want to take action on a parks maintenance fee
increase at this time.
Council President Goodhouse made a motion to approve Resolution No. 20-54 as recommended
by staff. There was no second.
Public Works Director Rager added that the recreation program was not related to the parks and
recreation fee increase, since the increase would fund three existing positions in parks maintenance.
He emphasized that this would fund parks maintenance staffing at the level they need for the
current fiscal year. Councilor Lueb added that the parks budget is currently funded through the end
of this fiscal year and they still have time to figure it out.
Council President Goodhouse made a motion to approve Resolution No. 20-54, as amended to
delay the PARF rate increase to July 2021. Councilor Anderson seconded the motion. Mayor Snider
asked the City Recorder to read the number and title of the resolution.
Resolution No. 20-54:A RESOLUTION AMENDING THE CITYWIDE MASTER FEES
AND CHARGES SCHEDULE,WHICH WAS ADOPTED UNDER RESOLUTION NO. 20-
32,AS AMENDED
Mayor Snider asked Council for any additional thoughts or comments:
• Youth Councilor Calderon voiced his support for the amended motion.
• Councilor Lueb said that scheduling the PARF increase in July negated the reasoning to wait
until the Parks Master Plan is available. Director LaFrance agreed and said that in delaying the
PARF increase, staff would impose a double increase in July 2021.
• Councilor Newton asked a clarifying question regarding the PARF increase implemented on
July 1, 2021.
• There was discussion regarding separating the PARF into a separate item for Council
consideration.
Mayor Snider asked the City Recorder to conduct a roll call vote.
Yes No

2. PUBLIC COMMENT
Mayor Snider announced that written public comments were due by 4:30 p.m. and call-in
questions would be taken via telephone by calling 503-966-4101 now to get in the queue.
A. Public Comment—Written: No comments were received.
B. Public Comment—Phone In: None.
C. Follow up to Previous Public Comment—Interim City Manager Nyland provided follow-up
on a previous comment related to urban renewal and tax increment financing. She said a
thorough explanation on tax increment financing was sent on October 29 and was well
received. Mayor Snider said both the resident and staff found the response very
informative.
D. Tigard High School Envoy—Caroline Frisiras provided a brief update of THS Activities. On
October 27 a virtual pumpkin carving contest was held with students showing pictures of
their pumpkins on Instagram and then voting on a winner. On October 28 there was a
virtual DJ dance party after their social/emotional learning check in. The Oregon
Association of Student Council fall conference was held via Zoom and ten Tigard High
students attended,learning about equity and ways to keep students engaged at this time.
Postcards were mailed out to veterans in the community that normally would have attended
the annual assembly at the high school. A slideshow of photos submitted by veterans will be
posted on the Leadership website honoring them on Veterans Day. Club Rush was held
virtually and over 900 students participated. Councilor Newton commented that even while
having to do everything virtually during the pandemic they are getting a lot done.
E. Update from Police Chief McAlpine: An increase in both person and property crimes has
occurred in the last month. Assaults were at 17 last year at this time and up to 56 this year,
including two incidents at the Bottle Drop location when employees were attempting to
close for the evening. She drew attention to the photo enforcement numbers,which are
going down. People are becoming aware of photo-enforcement and are changing their
behavior, as was the hope. Regarding police reform and law enforcement's role in
homelessness, she assigned Community Service Officer Peterson to take the lead and work
with non-profit and community outreach folks to make contact with homeless
individuals and share information about resources available to them. This has been
successful so far. The Tigard Police Officer's Association (TPOA) stepped up to house a
family, including a seven-year old child found sleeping in a car overnight (they were wildfire
victims that lost their home and jobs) and the next day the CSO found housing for them for
26 days and the child is in online school.The family is very appreciative.
Chief McAlpine noted that Tigard has participated with TriMet for transit policing for the
past twenty years. Due to staffing constraints, she pulled two officers in October and will
pull two more back this month due to emerging staffing issues with light duty and new
officers in training. The Multnomah County Sheriff's Department is taking over TriMet
policing in early 2021 so the timing is good for this transition.

do and acknowledged that it is that much more difficult with COVID-19 restrictions such as
limited jail space.
Councilor Newton got an email from Representative Doherty, a member of the Just
Compassion Board,which she forwarded to the Chief and was heartened by the prompt
response and the compassion shown to our homeless community by Tigard police officers.
Councilor Newton reminded the community that Chief McAlpine has done a wonderful job
keeping everyone updated through the transparency web site and reporting on how the
public safety levy money is being spent to hire officers.
F. Tigard Area Chamber of Commerce Community and Member Engagement Manager
Love provided a brief update on Chamber activities. Leadership Tigard met today and in a
socially distant way,learned about Tigard history. She expressed congratulations from the

virtually. He asked Interim City Manager Nyland to make sure each member gets a pin mailed
to them. The Council thanked all of the members and commented on the unprecedented level
of community interest in this committee.

Alternatives Director of Real Estate Development Destin Ferdun also in attendance. Council is
being asked to authorize the City Manager to sign a Disposition and Development Agreement,
including the form of a Ground Lease,with Northwest Housing Alternatives for the Alongside
Senior Housing Project.

progress being made on this affordable senior housing project. In September 2020,Washington
County awarded $6,270,000 in Metro Housing Bond funds and 23 project-based vouchers to the
project.
After being selected by the City of Tigard,NHA has participated in 14 community outreach
events and more are planned in the coming months and throughout 2021. Mr. Ferdun said
NHA has listened to community output and have made changes. Design updates include:

• Revised and added parking
• Planned parking management plan
• Privacy screens added to the rooftop
• Removed retaining wall and relocated drive on south portion of property
• Refined delivery truck access
Mr. Ferdun showed slides of floor plans and elevations.
Councilor Anderson commented that it is a great project and that the city leasing the property
for 99 years is, "a no-brainer. It will be here for many generations."
Redevelopment Project Manager Farrelly briefly walked through the DDA. Tenant must attain a
survey outlining the lease area. Closing deadline is March 31, 2023. Closing may well be sooner.
Substantial completion will be two years and several items will be negotiated after signing of the
DDA,including the parking management plan, easement agreement and agreement of
maintenance of landscaping and parking area.

for the next agenda item.
6. TOWN CENTER DEVELOPMENT AGENCY—CONSIDER APPROVAL OF THE
FOURTH AMENDMENT TO THE DEVELOPMENT AND DISPOSITION
AGREEMENT WITH AVA TIGARD DEVELOPMENT LLC
Redevelopment Project Manager Farrelly gave the staff report on the fourth amendment to the
Development and Disposition Agreement with AVA Tigard Development,LLC,which will allow
closing to take place within six weeks or sooner. This will allow enough time to record deeds, a lot-
line adjustment and easements with Washington County.
Building permits have been approved and AVA is working on their financing. In addition to a later
closing date the amendment would waive the precedent before closing to review the financing plan,
as there are binding commitment letters from their lenders and on them purchasing the property.
The city reviewed their preliminary financial information and found it to be what they were
expecting. The DDA requires commencement of construction within one year of closing and
substantial completion of the project within two years.
Mayor Snider noted that this is the culmination of a lot of staff and Council time as well as for
AVA Development and he thanked everyone for working hard to make something that will be an
incredible new addition to downtown Tigard. President Goodhouse commented that this is a
project that has been in the works for a long time and people that have seen that lot sit empty for
so long will be excited to see this project take shape.
Director Lueb moved to approve the Fourth Amendment to the Development and Disposition
Agreement with AVA Tigard Development LLC. Director Anderson seconded the motion. City

participated in the virtual pumpkin scavenger hunt including 179 families. The November 30 date
for the School Resource Officer program discussion with Tigard-Tualatin School District has a
conflict so it will be rescheduled. Mayor Snider asked if it would be a formal joint meeting and

November 13th.
2. RECEIVE BRIEFING ON TIGARD MAINTAIN,ADVANCE,AND DIVERSIFY
EMPLOYMENT (MADE) PROGRAM
Associate Planner Pollard noted there would not be Council action on this item,but that this
was an opportunity for Council to provide feedback to help shape how staff move forward.
Tigard MADE—Maintain,Advance, and Diversify Employment—is needed to address changing
conditions in development patterns and business operations. The changes proposed in this
process would modernize the code, help address the constrained employment land supply in the
city and diversify the types of development available here.
The project will not look at residential zoning but will focus on industrial and commercial
zoning codes. Heavy industrial uses will continue to stay separate but there will be more
opportunities to encourage mixing with other uses, for example,breweries and tasting rooms
combined in a single location, or residential uses located above commercial uses. Associate
Planner Pollard emphasized the project is still in the early stages,but these are the questions staff
will be analyzing.
This provides an opportunity to modernize the city's code, focusing on social equity and
environmental sustainability. Staff will place a heavy focus on these lenses,looking at city
policies and regulations that act as barriers to historically marginalized communities.They will
also seek ways to incentivize sustainable development.
Associate Planner Pollard reviewed the public engagement plan,which includes outreach to a
TIGARD CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES —November 17, 2020
City of Tigard I 13125 SW Hall Blvd.,Tigard, OR 97223 www.tigard-or.gov I Page 1 of 8
wide variety of stakeholders. A lot of the materials will be digital, conducted via surveys on the
city's website. Ms. Pollard emphasized their efforts to reach those historically not included in the
conversation.
Mayor Snider asked Council for comments or questions:
• Councilor Newton said she appreciated that home occupations were being considered as
part of the project since business is changing coming out of COVID. She said it was
important to balance flexibility with specificity in the code language. She asked Associate
Planner Pollard to share what she had learned from conversations with developers and she
responded they are learning more about what is possible as far as mixing uses, especially
beyond residential and commercial. She said there is a desire for redevelopment for existing
buildings,which is important due to the lack of existing employment lands.
• Councilor Lueb thanked staff for the presentation.
• Councilor Anderson asked about commercial real estate brokers in their project participants
and Ms. Pollard confirmed they are included. He said he had heard frustrations from brokers
regarding restricted uses in Tigard. He was interested in seeing what would come of flex
spaces inside warehouses, for example.
• Youth Councilor Calderon said it was a great presentation.
• Council President Goodhouse asked about River Terrace West and whether it would
become an employment land area. Assistant Community Development Director McGuire
said they are not looking at River Terrace West as being exclusively employment land. He
clarified they are looking at residential uses with retail mixed in,but they are far from
anything being final. Council president Goodhouse said he was looking forward to seeing
how they can diversify Tigard.
• Mayor Snider asked if this would look like the lean code implemented within the Tigard
Triangle.Assistant Director McGuire confirmed it would be a similar approach,i.e. form-
based,with a reduction in the number of zones. Mayor Snider asked Associate Planner
Pollard to introduce herself to the community.
• Council President Goodhouse asked if they would be considering connectivity and
walkability in their analysis and Associate Planner Pollard confirmed that they would.
3. CONSIDER APPROVAL OF TIGARD'S STATE & FEDERAL ADVOCACY AGENDA
FOR 2021
Senior Management Analyst Hendrix explained that the proposed legislative agenda is like last
year's list since the State legislature only passed three items during their last session. She noted
the addition of the 99W corridor study since the transportation ballot measure from Metro did
not pass and that a lot of the priorities overlap with those of the League of Oregon Cities
(LOC).
Mayor Snider asked how many topic areas they should choose and Senior Management Analyst
Hendrix responded that four to six was an ideal number. Mayor Snider shared that they have
been working with the State Representative-Elect Dacia Grayber from District 35 and several
items are already in the form of legislative concepts for the next session.
• Council President Goodhouse asked how a recent ballot measure would impact the
marijuana tax item. Senior Management Analyst Hendrix said that this item was being
pursued by LOC. Mayor Snider added the Mayors Consortium was pushing for local control
and protecting home rule.

services, (3)Jurisdictional transfer of Hall Blvd., (4)Affordable housing. He said he would
support property tax reform given Council's support. Mayor Snider said it has been a
problem for 25 years and Councilor Lueb added that State Senator Burdick was planning to
take this issue on in her last session in the legislature.
• Council President Goodhouse asked a clarifying question about the broadband and digital
access topic and its relation to infrastructure.

reform was first on everybody's list.

services,which she thinks could address homelessness to a degree.Then (4) 99W Corridor

with broadband and digital access. She said the jurisdictional transfer was important but
already underway, and that home rule is important as well.
Mayor Snider said he would like the topic to preserve local decision-making authority to include
"and protect home rule."He made a formal proposal and Council all agreed by a show of
thumbs. He said there was also consensus on property tax reform. He discussed the topic area of
police reform and said he thought more would come as the Public Safety Advisory Board began
to meet and act. Councilor Newton concurred.
Mayor Snider asked Council what they thought about adding broadband and digital access or
infrastructure.
• Councilor Newton said she was fine focusing on broadband and digital access.
• Councilor Lueb said she was fine with adding the infrastructure piece.
• Mayor Snider said he agreed with the point but did not think they should use their limited
words to advocate for an issue without direct implications for Tigard. He polled the Council
on whether to add broadband and digital access to their legislative agenda and Council all
agreed by a show of thumbs.
• Councilor Anderson asked if this included negotiation over franchise fees and staff said that
was not intended.
Mayor Snider advocated for the inclusion of the jurisdictional transfer of Hall Blvd.
• Council President Goodhouse agreed and suggested they reference the orphan highway
fund.
• Councilor Newton agreed and thought they should leave it focused to the jurisdictional
transfer of Hall Blvd. alone. Mayor Snider agreed. He polled the Council and they all agreed
by a show of thumbs.

Mayor Snider asked for Council's thoughts on mental health services. He said he thought it
should be included. All members of Council agreed verbally to including this topic. He asked
Councilor-Elect Shaw about her thoughts on the state legislative agenda. She said they may want
to consider adding the 99W Corridor Study due to the timing. All members of Council agreed to
that proposal.

reform, (4)Jurisdictional transfer of Hall Blvd., (5) 99W Corridor Study.

new infrastructure packages expected in the new presidential administration. Otherwise, he
said he agreed with Councilor Newton's list.
Mayor Snider proposed combining SW Corridor and infrastructure investment into one topic
area. He said he thought restoring the SALT deductions was important for the west coast,where
high taxes are challenging. He proposed adding this as the sixth topic area. Council all agreed to
these proposals.Youth Councilor Calderon and Councilor-Elect Shaw were both in support of
the final list of Federal legislative priorities.
The Federal legislative agenda priorities agreed on were (1) SW Corridor infrastructure
investment, (2) Restoring SALT deductions, (3) COVID-19 funding

4. QUARTERLY UPDATE ON CITY COUNCIL GOALS AND DEPARTMENT
WORKPLANS
Senior Management Analyst Hendrix said a lot has happened this year including a refreshed
strategic plan,which is a guiding document for these planning efforts. The newly adopted
strategic plan informs the department strategic and master plans,which inform department-level
work plans and division goals. This process hopes to strategically align the strategic priorities
with Council goals,performance audit recommendations, as well as department master and work
plans. She presented a progress review toward Council goals, reporting there are a lot of
complex components but planning efforts are moving forward.
• Councilor Newton asked how the performance audit recommendations fit in. Senior
Management Analyst Hendrix said that she views the performance audit, community input,
and the budget as feeding into the whole picture,impacting every phase. Councilor Newton
asked how those fit in with the department master and strategic plans. She said she was
confused. Ms. Hendrix said ideally departments would look to those documents to identify
performance measures to track and report on tracking those metrics in the corresponding
documents. Councilor Newton said she knew members of the community who were
tracking the performance audit and she wanted the public to be able to easily find how those
were woven into these plans.
• Councilor Anderson said he liked the quarterly updates.

6. RECEIVE BRIEFING ON 2020 DRAFT WATER MASTER PLAN FINDINGS AND
RECOMMENDATIONS
Executive Manager Goodrich explained the purpose of the Water System Master Plan (WSMP)
and its scope. He said this plan will provide important inputs for the rate analysis and System
Development Charges (SDC) methodology update. He introduced consultants Candace
Coleman and Heidi Springer with Murray Smith.
Candace Coleman reviewed the previous information provided to Council,including the scope
of the WSMP and their water system analysis of supply, treatment, delivery, and aquifer storage
and recovery (ASR) wells. She discussed the city's water sources and how the water supply
matches up to demand over time.
Executive Manager Goodrich explained that at the time they executed the agreement it was for
TIGARD CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES —November 17, 2020
City of Tigard I 13125 SW Hall Blvd.,Tigard, OR 97223 www.tigard-or.gov I Page 5 of 8
14 million gallons per day (MGD) capacity. In 2013,the city negotiated an additional 4 MGD
capacity for $20 million.At the time it was purchased, the city did not have the ability to use the
4 MGD and planned to complete those projects down the road,with some projects being part
of the Lake Oswego-Tigard Partnership (LOT) and others not. These capital projects to increase
Tigard's system capacity to the 18 MGD will be included in the 20-year capital improvement
program (CIP).
Mayor Snider said he was the only member of the Council when the grand bargain was struck
with Lake Oswego regarding the additional 4 MGD of capacity for$20 million,which he called
the best$20 million ever spent in Tigard. He noted Councilor Newton negotiated the agreement
as the Assistant City Manager.
Council President Goodhouse asked about including the other water sources,including the
Willamette Intake Facility (WIF), and why they were still not included in the water sources
infographic. Executive Manager Goodrich explained that the purposes of this master plan and
this planning period, the WIF is not an active water source in the system and will not be
available until 2026 at the earliest.
Candace Coleman reviewed the capital projects proposed as part of the LOT partnership. She
described the need to combine zones to decrease pumping energy and reliance on reservoirs
while reducing high pressure in some areas and increasing available fire flow in others. Ms.
Coleman identified several capital projects associated with zone consolidation. She said they
were recommending a new reservoir in the River Terrace area and a replacement for Pump
Station 8.
For pipe renewal and replacement,Ms. Coleman explained they are using existing data to assess
pipe conditions to determine the repair and replacement program. She shared a map of the city
with pipe conditions noted in red,yellow, and green. She said the map showed areas of focus,
where the city could address high-risk areas. They recommend Tigard aim to replace 3 miles of
pipe per year in order to stay current on a 100-year replacement cycle. Regarding seismic
resiliency, she said they found Pump Station 5 and Reservoir 13 to be at the greatest risk should
an earthquake occur. The presentation concluded with a proposed 20-year CIP broken down
into 5-year increments.
Mayor Snider asked Council for any questions or comments:
• Council President Goodhouse asked about comments Ms. Coleman made regarding the 713
pressure zone (PZ). Heidi Springer added that higher pressure can cause fatigue in pipes and
fittings,but those with high pressure will have a pressure regulator on their water service
already and so they will not experience a change in pressure. He asked about problems with
Reservoir 8 under the seismic resiliency analysis. Ms. Springer said that they do not know yet
what would be required until they get further into the planning process.
• Councilor Anderson asked what the current replacement pipe program looks like. Executive
Manager Goodrich said they do have a line item for pipe replacement,but it is typically a low
dollar amount. The city has focused on the replacement of pipe based on opportunity, such
as a concurrent road project. He said this would be an opportunity to create a more robust
replacement program and they need to start somewhere.
• Mayor Snider noted that most of the red pipes are concentrated around Highway 99W and
Candace Coleman reflected that was due to the critical nature of those roadways and the
disruption that would occur should a pipe break occur.

time.

million in grant aid to the community. He agreed the shutdown will be a blow to local
business, but he expects Tigard will receive at least part of the $55 million from the state. He

funds should they want to distribute additional aid.

additional city reserve funds.

like public contracting requirements.

AGREEMENT WITH WASHINGTON COUNTY FOR DISTRIBUTION OF FUNDS
Economic Development Manager Purdy explained the proposal was a continuation of a business
assistance program in response to COVID-19 called Tigard Commercial Assistance and Relief
for Economic Stability (CARES) Round V. He said that Tigard will receive about$1 million
from recent federal funding, through the county and state.They would still use a vendor,Micro
Enterprise Services of Oregon (MESO) to administer the program which would accrue
administrative costs that may not be covered by the allocated funding. They would require
$25,000-75,000 in Tigard funds to administer the program.
TIGARD CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES — December 1, 2020
City of Tigard 1 13125 SW Hall Blvd.,Tigard, OR 97223 www.tigard-or.gov 1 Page 4 of 7
Finance and Information Services Director LaFrance walked Council through an example of
how the city could leverage city funds to distribute $1 million in federal funds,including three
different scenarios for administrative costs. He noted special timing considerations for
expending the funds before an appropriation has been finalized.
Economic Development Manager Purdy reviewed the process for pursuing this proposal. Not
only are staff requesting the use of funds from the city's emergency reserve fund, they will also
need to negotiate an Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) with Washington County and execute
a contract with MESO.
City Attorney Rihala clarified that the policy discussion can be a consensus decision,but the
IGA and contract items will require a motion. Mayor Snider said it seemed like the only
difference between the scenarios is the amount the city pays. He asked Council for their
thoughts and every member was in support of Option A. Mayor Snider said he was pleased they
could get this much money on the street this quickly.
Economic Development Manager Purdy said that the state would like the city to restrict aid to
businesses shut down by the most recent executive order. He asked Council if they would like to
follow that guidance or continue providing relief to all kinds of businesses impacted by the
pandemic. Staff recommended the city proceed with being as inclusive as possible with the
funding. Those shut down would receive additional weight in receiving the funding,but that
they do not believe they should turn away other businesses that are impacted.
Mayor Snider asked why the state has issued that suggestion. Mr. Purdy said he thought it had to
do with timing and not a policy nexus. Mayor Snider asked about the weighting system in
choosing grant recipients. Mayor Snider said the proposal from staff is to follow the general
process and criteria used before, adding preference to businesses shut down by the most recent
executive order.
Council President Goodhouse asked what businesses would be given a preference and Mr.
Purdy confirmed it would be any business shut down by Executive Order 20-65. He asked if the
preference would be equal among all types of businesses. Mr. Purdy said they had not thought of
that but they could. Mayor Snider said that would be a level of complexity that would add time.
Mayor Snider polled the Council on whether they were in favor of the staff proposal. Councilor
Lueb said she was still unsure and she would like these businesses to get the first shot at funding.
Councilor Newton agreed. Council President Goodhouse said he agreed with awarding funds to
businesses shut down first. Councilor Anderson was in support of giving directly affected
businesses the first opportunity for relief aid.
Councilor Anderson made a motion to approve assistance as presented and to approve an IGA
with Washington County up to $1.5 million for the distribution of federal CARES Act funding,
subject to negotiation by the City Manager and City Attorney, and to authorize the City Manager
to execute the agreement. Councilor Lueb seconded the motion. Mayor Snider asked Deputy
Recorder Patton to conduct a roll call vote.
Yes No

Attorney, and to authorize the City Manager to execute the agreement. Council President

it was nice to continue a tradition in some way during the pandemic. Council President

4. CONSIDER ACCEPTANCE OF THE HARING PROPERTY DONATION
Public Works Director Rager and Parks Supervisor McKnight brought forward this item for
Council consideration of a park property. Parks Supervisor McKnight gave the staff report on
the staff recommendation for Council to accept a donation for the 3.28-acre Haring property
into the parks inventory. It is located on the south side of SW Shady Lane and adjacent on the
west side to the undeveloped Bagan Park property. It would allow for a trail connection and a
second entrance into a nearby neighborhood. He showed a slide of the area and said that the
neighborhood is currently underserved with parks properties.
Councilor Lueb asked that the city's deepest thanks be extended to Mrs. Haring for donating
this property and she was excited to be able to expand park services into this area. She moved
to authorize the city manager to accept the donation of the Haring property to the City of
Tigard and to take all steps necessary to complete the transaction. Council President
Goodhouse seconded the motion. A roll call vote was taken and the motion passed
unanimously.

Councilor Goodhouse asked if there was a policy about naming this portion of the park after
the person who donated it. Parks Supervisor Martin said Council has adopted a naming policy
and in this instance the family has not made that request Mayor Snider said he would be
concerned that having properties adjacent to each other with two different names could create
some confusion.

8. CONSIDER RESOLUTION TO CHANGE THE NUMBER OF RESIDENT MEMBERS
OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE
Assistant Finance Director Isaksen and Audit Committee Member Larry Acheson presented this
item. All Audit Committee Members (Stephanie Veal, Elizabeth Gils Carbo,Jeremy Nichols
and Ann McElligott) were invited to attend to answer any questions.
Assistant Finance Director Isaksen said Resolution No. 18-46 temporarily expanded the Audit
Committee from 2 to 4 at-large members and expanded duties to include reviewing the
performance audit findings,performance metrics as suggested by the performance audit reports
and staff reports on progress in measuring and reporting on metrics.
Audit Committee Member Acheson said after meeting on October 7, 2020 the committee has
the following recommendations:
• Conduct a performance audit of utility funds after the Tyler-Munis implementation.
• Keep the Audit Committee in the expanded format for greater perspective,ideas and
oversight.
• Implement existing measures as presented and do a performance audit every 5-7 years.
Mayor Snider asked Councilor Lueb, the Council Liaison to the Audit Committee, for her
feedback. Councilor Lueb said she wholeheartedly supported making the expanded number of
members permanent. She said the incredible members on the committee brought in some great
insight and reducing the number would reduce community input. Mayor Snider remarked that
he used to be the liaison to this committee when it had fewer members and it has become a
more valuable program over the last few years as the scope and participation expanded.
Councilor Lueb moved to approve Resolution No. 20-60. Councilor Anderson seconded the
motion. City Recorder Krager read the number and title of the resolution and conducted a roll
call vote.

9. CONSIDER RESOLUTION APPOINTING MICHAEL J. O'BRIEN JUDGE PRO
TEMPORE
Central Services Director Robinson gave the staff report. Council is being asked to consider a
resolution appointing Michael J. O'Brien as Judge pro tempore effective January 1, 2021. She
noted that Judge O'Brien proffered his resignation as Tigard's municipal judge but prior to his
resignation he was invited to participate on the Public Safety Advisory Board. Staff had to
consider whether a new judge coming in would be effective on the PSAB as someone with 30
years of experience not only with the police department but leading the court and hearing the
cases brought before Tigard's Municipal Court by police and other city employees. He has
expressed interest in continuing as judge pro tern to represent the court perspective on the
PSAB. Mayor Snider thanked Central Services Director Robinson and said having Judge
O'Brien serve on the PSAB will be helpful and also having him mentor and be a resource in the
short term is valuable too. Councilor Newton added that he will bring good perspective to the
PSAB.
Judge O'Brien said heappreciated the confidence in appointing him to this position for many
reasons, but among them is not having to sever ties to Tigard as he goes into semi-training.
Mayor Snider thanked him for his years of service to the city and willingness to continue to help
the community.
Councilor Anderson moved to approve Resolution No. 20-61. Councilor Newton seconded the
motion. City Recorder Krager read the number and title of the resolution and conducted a roll

10. RECEIVE BRIEFING ON BUSINESS LICENSE SUPPORT PROGRAM
Economic Development Program Manager Purdy briefed Council on a limited business license
fee waiver program. If Council is supportive, he will return in January with proposed changes to
the Tigard Municipal Code and Master Fees and Charges Schedule.
Staff is bringing forth this recommendation in response to Council's direction to incorporate
equity into a wide range of city programs. The idea is to offer a one-time, one-year business
license fee waiver for new and emerging business owners who successfully complete a business
training program with one of the city's business advising partners within one-year. This would
encourage new business owners, especially historically under-served entrepreneurs, by
encouraging them to take advantage of free and low-cost business advising partners like Micro
Enterprise Services of Oregon (MESO), the Oregon Association of Minority Entrepreneurs
(OAME) and Adelante Mujeres. These organizations are closely connected to entrepreneurs of
color and have a strong history of program delivery. Examples of training offered include small
business development workshops or recurring advising sessions.
It would run for three years as a pilot project in order to gather sufficient data on business
participation. There would be an annual review of participants and foregone revenue to
determine the program's impact and cost.
In response to a question from Councilor Newton,Mr. Purdy said the business license program
is codified so in order to make changes the code needed to be amended, adding a provision for
this program. Council President Goodhouse asked how many new businesses there are in a year
and Mr. Purdy said he did not have the numbers. Finance distributes a monthly list and the
range is 8-20. He said most businesses do not take the extra step to ensure more success so
even if 8 came to Tigard, all would not sign up. He noted that the city is not spending money;it
is foregoing a business license fee of$100-$200. In response to a question from Councilor
Anderson,Mr. Purdy said the business would submit a certificate or some proof that they
completed the training in order to receive the waiver. Councilor Lueb said anything that can be
done to lower the barrier and encourage training would lead to success. Mayor Snider said he
was supportive of the proposal coming back in January.
Council President Goodhouse suggested not only having the information available in the
application process, but also advertising it. Economic Development Manager Purdy said there
were two components,promoting it,but also relying on business advising partners to say,
"If you choose to locate in Tigard, there is this advantage..."
11. CONSIDER RESOLUTION ADOPTING THE 2020 WATER SYSTEM MASTER PLAN
Public Works Executive Manager Goodrich and Sr. Project Engineer Billings-Beck gave the staff
report. Their slide presentation is included in the packet for this meeting.
Executive Manager Goodrich said that in November of 2017, the city contracted with Murray
Smith and Associates Engineering for an updated Water Systems Master Plan to provide the
city with information needed to develop long-term water infrastructure decisions. Two
workshop briefings were held with Council on October 20 and November 17, 2020 to provide
TIGARD CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES — December 8, 2020
City of Tigard 1 13125 SW Hall Blvd.,Tigard, OR 97223 www.tigard-or.gov 1 Page 9 of 11
an overview, findings and recommendations. The city's Water Advisory Board (WAB) received
briefings on August 31 and October 14, 2020. The Plan includes a system analysis, supply
analysis and a pipe renewal and replacement program. The seismic backbone is discussed and
how to increase resiliency in the case of an earthquake event and the projects necessary to
develop it. It contains a list of proposed water capital improvement program (CIP) projects and
associated costs for years 2021-2040.
Staff recommends approval of the resolution. The Water System Master Plan meets Oregon
state drinking water requirements for periodic updates.
Councilor Newton said she appreciated the strategic approach being taken on the long-term
distribution and supply and likes the approach to pipe replacement as the system ages. She
noted there are references in Exhibit A to the broader report and charts but not including them
may be confusing to the public. City Attorney Rihala said there are security reasons not to
include the entire report.The consultant had to sign a non-disclosure agreement. The water
providers only are provided this information in order to help respond in an earthquake, for
example. City Attorney Rihala said a simple sentence that says the entire report is not available
to the public for security reasons would be adequate.
Councilor Lueb moved to approve Resolution No. 20-62. Council President Goodhouse
seconded the motion. City Recorder Krager read the number and tide of the resolution and
conducted a roll call vote. The motion passed unanimously.

12. NON-AGENDA ITEMS:A non-agenda item was brought forward that came up from a
conversation between Tualatin Mayor Bubenik,Mayor Snider and the two city's attorneys. The
proposal is to seek each Council's approval to send a joint letter to CenterCal,regarding their threat
to evict Regal Cinemas from Bridgeport Village. Both jurisdictions have passed eviction
moratorium resolutions. Bridgeport is in both Tigard and Tualatin and the Regal Cinemas building
is in Tigard. The letter to CenterCal would publicly state Tigard's and Tualatin's disappointment
and frustration with this action. A roll call vote was taken and Council unanimously approved
sending a joint letter to CenterCal. City Attorney Rihala will work with the City of Tualatin's
attorney on the letter.

ISSUE
Consider appproving a grant agreement with ODOT to provide Safe Routes to School
Program grant funding for the construction of new sidewalks on Locust Street near Metzger
Elementary.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION / ACTION REQUEST
Authorize the city manager to sign the agreement.
KEY FACTS AND INFORMATION SUMMARY
SW Locust Street, a collector roadway adjacent to Metzger Elementary School, has no
sidewalk on the north side of the roadway limiting students' ability to travel along the street.
There is no marked crosswalk across SW Locust Street at SW Lincoln Street, which is the
only vehicle access point to the school. This intersection is also on the receiving end of a
popular trail connecting to neighborhoods north of the school. Combined, these two barriers
create significant safety concerns for students and families.
City staff designed a project that will include an enhanced pedestrian crossing consisting of a
marked crosswalk, ADA-compliant landings and curb ramps, and pedestrian-actuated rapid
reflective flashing beacon (RRFB) at the intersection of Locust Street and Lincoln Street to
address the critical crossing need at this intersection. The project will also result in a complete
sidewalk (approximately 1,465 linear feet) on the north side of Locust Street, from just west
of 92nd Avenue to Hall Boulevard, within city-owned right-of-way to complete the pedestrian
network adjacent to the school.
By completing this section of missing sidewalk along Locust Street, students living to the
north and northeast of the school will have a grade-separated facility to walk on, where today
there is only a roadside ditch. The addition of an enhanced high-visibility marked crosswalk
with ped-actuated RRFB, new signage, and improved ADA-compliant landings will not only
improve safety of pedestrians crossing at this important location, it will also clarify the rules of
the road for drivers.
To fund the project, City staff applied for an ODOT Safe Routes to School (SRTS) program
grant and received an award of$792,000. This grant is local, non-federal money and the
project will be managed by the City. The City also received a Washington County MSTIP
award in the amount of$240,000, for which there will be a separate intergovernmental
agreement (IGA). The funding from these outside grant sources will fully fund the design and
construction of the project.
Staff recommends the council authorize the City Manager to sign the SRTS grant agreement
with ODOT to officially receive the $792,000 award.
OTHER ALTERNATIVES
Council could propose changes to the agreement or decide not to approve the agreement.
COUNCIL OR TCDA GOALS, POLICIES, MASTER PLANS
The construction of this sidewalk near Metzger Elementary meets Goal 5: "Enhance
walkability and pedestrian connectivity" of the 2019 Tigard City Council Goals and
specifically Strategy 5.3: "Continue to advance and develop Safe Routes to School (SRTS)
plans for Tigard schools and implement an improvement for at least one school per year
including funding priorities."

ISSUE
Asking the Local Contract Review Board to consider exempting the construction of
Universal Plaza from traditional low bid and allow Alternative Project Delivery.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION / ACTION REQUEST
Staff recommends that the Local Contract Review Board (LCRB) approve the findings and
allow an Alternative Project Delivery (APD) method rather than low bid for the solicitation
and contract of Universal Plaza.
KEY FACTS AND INFORMATION SUMMARY
The City of Tigard and its urban renewal agency, the Town Center Development Agency
(TCDA), are focused on continuing the revitalization of downtown Tigard. The City's
strategic vision is to be "an equitable community that is walkable, healthy, and accessible for
everyone." The adopted City Center Urban Renewal Plan aims to support this vision by
"develop[ing] urban spaces that will provide active and passive recreational opportunities for
pedestrians and attract residents and visitors to downtown."
In 2017, the TCDA Board directed that an agency-owned property in downtown Tigard be
redeveloped as a large public plaza. Envisioned as the most important public space in the
city's most important district, the future Universal Plaza, herein referred to as the "Project,"
will be a hub of activity, a stimulus for downtown's continued redevelopment, and an emblem
of civic pride and identity for Tigard residents.
In 2019, a Qualifications Based Request for Proposals was issued to select a qualified
landscape design firm to develop the City's vision. A team of landscape architects, engineers,
planners, cost estimators, and activation professionals headed by Rios was selected. The City
has approved a conceptual site design, informed by community engagement, addressing the
site challenges and opportunities.
The City has contracted with Shiels Obletz Johnsen (SOJ) to provide assistance as an Owners
Representative with experience in alternative project delivery. As part of the work under that
contract SOJ provides technical support and project management during pre-construction
activities and construction.
Staff evaluated different design and construction delivery methods taking the following into
consideration:
•Project challenges
• City of Tigard resources and technical expertise
•Project delivery alternatives and their features
This highly visible civic plaza project poses several challenges for maintaining design
excellence within available public funding. It includes unique public amenities and features
requiring specialized equipment and expertise. The City will be responsible for long-term
maintenance, and cost-effective investments now will minimize the long-term financial impact
on the City. Collaborative contractor involvement in the design process, constructability
review, and phasing options is key.
A state-of-the art water feature is the central focus of the site experience and constitutes
one-third of the construction budget. A traditional Design/Bid/Build (DBB) method poses a
high risk of contractors bidding the project without a comprehensive understanding of the
complexities and requirements of such a unique feature. A coordinated Construction
Manager/General Contractor (CM/GC) team approach, with a planned strategic sequencing
of project phasing, will ensure the required insight and essential grasp of the coordinated site
improvements that will be needed for Life Cycle Cost assessments and a successful result.
This will mitigate risk to the City and produce cost savings. The estimated project cost
including construction and engineering is approximately $3.5 million.
As required under Oregon Revised Statute 279C.335, all public improvement contracts must
be competitive low bid except if a LCRB exempts the project and approves findings in
support of an alternative contracting method, as follows:
•The exemption is unlikely to encourage favoritism in awarding a public improvement
contract or substantially diminish competition for public improvement contracts.
•Awarding a public improvement contract under the exemption will likely result in
substantial cost savings and other substantial benefits to the contracting agency that
seeks the exemption. In approving the findings, the LCRB shall consider the type, cost
and amount of the contract and, to the extent applicable to the particular public
improvement, the following:
o How many persons are available to bid;
o The construction budget and the projected operating costs for the completed
public improvement;
o Public benefits that may result from granting the exemption;
o Whether value engineering techniques may decrease the cost of the public
improvement;
o The cost and availability of specialized expertise that is necessary for the public
improvement;
o Any likely increases in public safety;
o Whether granting the exemption may reduce risks to the contracting agency, or the
public that are related to the public improvement;
o Whether granting the exemption will affect the sources of funding for the public
improvement;
o Whether granting the exemption will better enable the contracting agency to
control the impact that market conditions may have on the cost of and time
necessary to complete the public improvement;
o Whether granting the exemption will better enable the contracting agency to
address the size and technical complexity of the public improvement;
o Whether the public improvement involves new construction or renovates or
remodels an existing structure;
o Whether the public improvement will be occupied or unoccupied during
construction;
o Whether the public improvement will require a single phase of construction work
or multiple phases of construction work to address specific project conditions; and
o Whether the contracting agency has retained under contract, and will use
contracting agency personnel, consultants and legal counsel that have necessary
expertise and substantial experience in alternative contracting methods to assist in
developing the alternative contracting method that will be used to award the public
improvement contract and to help negotiate, administer and enforce the terms of
the contract.
The City published a public notice and held a public hearing on March 18, 2021 as required
under ORS 279C.335 to allow for comments on the draft findings. No contractors attended
the meeting and the City did not receive any comments on the findings as presented. The
final Findings report is attached as Exhibit A.
OTHER ALTERNATIVES
The Local Contract Review Board may choose to not approve the Findings and CM/GC
Exemption and ask staff to investigate other procurement methods. This would delay the
start of the project by several months.

FACTUAL FINDINGS
PROPOSED EXEMPTION FROM COMPETITIVE BIDDING
UNIVERSAL PLAZA PARK
I. EXEMPTION FROM COMPETITIVE BIDDING UNDER OREGON STATUTE
Oregon law requires all public improvement projects to be procured by a competitive low
bid method, unless an exemption is granted by the State of Oregon or the Local Contract
Review Board (LCRB) for public agencies other than the State. In order to obtain an
exemption, ORS 279C.335 requires the Tigard City Council, acting as the LCRB, to
approve two findings submitted by the City staff:
1. It is unlikely that the exemption will encourage favoritism in the awarding of public
improvement contracts or substantially diminish competition for the public
improvement; and
2. The awarding of the public improvement contract under the exemption will likely
result in substantial cost savings for the City of Tigard ("City").
As used in ORS 279C.335, 279C.345 and 279C.350, "findings" means the justification
for a contracting agency conclusion that includes, but is not limited to, information
regarding:
(A) How many persons are available to bid;
(B) Operational, budget, and financial data;
(C) Public benefits;
(D) Value engineering;
(E) Specialized expertise required;
(F & G) Public safety and reduction of risks;
(H) Funding sources;
(I) Market conditions;
(J) Technical complexity;

(K) Whether the public improvement involves new construction or renovates or remodels
an existing structure;
(L) Occupancy during construction;
(M) Phasing of the Project; and
(N) Expertise and experience of the City's consultants and legal counsel in alternative
contracting methods.
II. PROJECT BACKGROUND
A. Description & History
The City of Tigard, a first-tier suburb in the Portland metropolitan area, is a diverse
community of 54,758 residents (currently Oregon's 11th largest city). The City of Tigard
has a well-balanced economy that includes more than 3,000 firms employing more than
40,000 people from around the region.
The City of Tigard and its urban renewal agency, the Town Center Development Agency
(TCDA), are focused on transitioning downtown Tigard to a place where people live and
gather. The city's strategic vision is to be "the most walkable community in the Pacific
Northwest, where people of all ages and abilities enjoy healthy and interconnected lives."
The adopted City Center Urban Renewal Plan aims to support this vision by
"develop[ing] urban spaces that will provide active and passive recreational opportunities
for pedestrians and attract residents and visitors to downtown."
In 2017, the TCDA Board directed that an agency-owned piece of property in downtown
Tigard be redeveloped as a large public plaza. Envisioned as the most important public
space in the city's most important district, the future Universal Plaza Park, herein
referred to as the "Project," will be a hub of activity, a stimulus for downtown's continued
redevelopment, and an emblem of civic pride and identity for Tigard residents.
In 2019, a Qualifications Based Request for Proposals was issued to select a qualified
landscape design firm to develop the City's vision. A team of landscape architects,
engineers, planners, cost estimators, and activation professionals headed by Rios was
selected. The City has approved a conceptual site design, informed by community
engagement, addressing the site challenges and opportunities.
B. Proiect Factors that Support CM/GC
This highly visible civic plaza project poses several challenges for maintaining design
excellence within available public funding. It includes unique public amenities and art
features requiring specialized equipment and expertise. The City will be responsible for
long-term maintenance, and cost-effective investments now will minimize the long-term
financial impact on the City. Collaborative contractor involvement in the design process,
City of Tigard Findings
Universal Plaza Park Page 2
constructability review, and phasing options is key.
A state-of-the art water feature is the central focus of the site experience and constitutes
one-third of the construction budget. A traditional Design/Bid/Build (DBB) method poses
a high risk of contractors bidding the project without a comprehensive understanding of
the complexities and requirements of such a unique feature. A coordinated CM/GC team
approach, with a planned strategic sequencing of project phasing, will ensure the
required insight and essential grasp of the coordinated site improvements that will be
needed for Life Cycle Cost assessments and a successful result. This will mitigate risk
to the City and produce cost savings.
C. Justification
For these reasons, the Community Development Department is proposing an alternative
contracting method for the Project, namely the Construction Manager/General
Contractor (CM/GC) method, instead of the traditional DBB method. Use of the CM/GC
alternative contracting method is also more likely to minimize costs, reduce change
orders, reduce risk, and reduce construction impacts.
In the traditional Design/Bid/Build (DBB) method, the City obtains separate contracts for
design and construction. The construction contract is bid at the completion of design and
is awarded to the candidate meeting the minimum qualifications with the lowest
responsive bid. The construction contractor performs the work under the oversight of
Community Development staff. The City assumes the risk for schedule delays,
unanticipated costs, and claims. The sequential nature of the DBB method requires a
lengthy design and construction time frame to allow for the permitting and bidding
processes. In DBB, there is no interaction between the design and construction
contractors until construction begins, when design and permits are locked in and there
is little allowance for change.
When using the CM/GC procurement method, the City negotiates a contract for a
Construction Manager / General Contractor. The Community Development Department
proposes to use a two-step process, beginning with a predevelopment services contract
for CM/GC services performed during design, followed by a construction contract for
management and completion of construction work elements.
As the design is refined, the CM/GC provides input to the design to reduce costs,
minimize scheduling problems, ensure constructability, and improve safety. As the
Project design develops, the CM/GC can plan and sequence technical subcontractors.
At a specified design milestone, the CM/GC will secure bids from subcontractors to
develop a total cost for construction. This cost is negotiated and locked in with a
Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) for the specified scope.
City of Tigard Findings
Universal Plaza Park Page 3
Using a CM/GC contracting method would support successful completion of the Project
in the most cost-effective manner. Hiring a CM/GC would provide the following benefits:
• Greater focus on completion date;
• Evaluation of total Project costs based on Project design;
• Guarantee of the maximum price at final design, absent changes in the scope of
work and/or unforeseen site conditions;
• Access to technical expertise during the design and in the planning for
sequencing construction phases;
• Experienced management of multiple technical subcontractors;
• Team building and partnering opportunities with City project management staff
and the design teams;
• Coordinated responsibility for worker safety;
• CM/GC assumption of some risk (e.g., cost, schedule, safety, and
constructability);
• Reduction of risk of construction delays and unanticipated costs for the City;
• Accelerated schedule with early solicitation of subcontract bid packages and
early construction start, concurrent with final design;
• Selection of a Contractor based on qualifications;
• Greater emphasis on contractor quality control; and,
• Use of contractors with specialized experience.
III. IT IS UNLIKELY THE EXEMPTION WILL ENCOURAGE FAVORITISM OR
SUBSTANTIALLY DIMINISH COMPETITION
ORS 279C.335(2) requires that the LCRB make certain findings as a part of exempting
public contracts or classes of public contracts from competitive bidding. ORS 279C.335
(2)(a) requires the LCRB to make a finding that, "[i]t is unlikely that such an exemption
will encourage favoritism in the awarding of public improvement contracts or
substantially diminish competition for public improvement contracts." This finding is
appropriate for the Project and is supported by the following facts.
The contractor will be selected through a competitive Request for Proposals (RFP)
process. The RFP for a CM/GC will be advertised in Portland's Daily Journal of
Commerce and on the City of Tigard website in advance of the deadline set for
submitting responses to the RFP. The proposals will be evaluated by a selection
committee based on criteria such as experience, technical expertise, key personnel and
staffing, diversity, safety record, schedule performance, and percentage profit and
overhead markup. The selection committee will review and rank the written proposals,
hold interviews if necessary, and recommend a Contractor for the CM/GC contract
award. As a result of the competitive RFP process, the use of an alternative contracting
method for the Project is unlikely to encourage favoritism in the awarding of public
contracts.
City of Tigard Findings
Universal Plaza Park Page 4
Furthermore, the alternative process can result in even broader participation and greater
competition than the traditional bidding process. All qualified general contractors and
construction management firms will have an opportunity to compete. These firms include
some that might not be willing to face the uncertainties and potential financial risks
associated with bidding and contracting for construction under a traditional design-bid-
build competitive bid process. Structuring the Project under a CM/GC contract that
includes the contractor in the design phase allows the selected firm to improve
constructability, develop phasing and staging plans to efficiently perform the work with
minimal disruption to operations, and determine effective construction methods. This
may make the Project more attractive to qualified firms because of the opportunity to
better understand the Project prior to providing the City with a price for the Project and
to reduce their risk in undertaking the Project. Therefore, competition will not be
diminished, and may even be enhanced by advertising the Project through a CM/GC
process.
IV. GRANTING THE EXEMPTION WILL LIKELY RESULT IN SUBSTANTIAL COST
SAVINGS
ORS 279C.335(2) requires that the LCRB make certain findings as part of exempting
public contracts or classes of public contracts from competitive bidding. ORS 279C.335
(2)(b) requires Council to find that "[t]he awarding of public improvement contracts under
the exemption will result in substantial cost savings to the public contracting agency."
This finding is appropriate for the Project and is supported by the following facts.
The Construction Industry Institute (CII) and Penn State University conducted a seminal
study published in 1997 comparing CM/GC (called "construction management at risk" in
the study), design-build, and design-bid-build performance on 351 building projects in
the United States. The results of the study can be compared in terms of cost and
schedule. Schedule was defined in both construction speed (construction only) and
delivery speed (both design and construction). The projects delivered using the CM/GC
method as compared to conventional DBB methods on average resulted in:
• Lower as-completed unit cost;
• Faster construction speed;
• Faster total delivery (including design and construction);
• Less cost growth during construction.
The Construction Industry Institute (CII) and Penn State University study may be found
at the following web address:

comparison-of-us-oroi-del-systems.pdf
The CM/GC method benefits for this Project include opportunity for cost and time-
savings through innovation. These innovations include improved Project construction
staging, incremental completion of design and commencement of construction,
City of Tigard Findings
Universal Plaza Park Page 5
integrated planning between designers and contractors from the beginning of the Project
and reduced formal design effort because the working plans and detailed specifications
do not have to be of a biddable level of detail.
The CM/GC contracting method rewards innovation; allows for concurrent acquisition,
design, and construction functions; and takes advantage of the ability to acquire
materials and order fabrication incrementally. It also provides incentives to the CM/GC
to manage and stage the Project to optimize efficiencies in construction. These methods
contribute to reduce Project duration, encourage long-term cost savings, and support
meeting Project performance objectives.
For the Universal Plaza Park, the advantages and potential cost savings would result
from working closely with the selected CM/GC to plan the construction staging in a
manner that cost effectively supports the specialized construction necessary for the
water feature, protects the environment, and coordinates detailed construction
sequencing with the protected Fanno Creek environment.
The Project could benefit from a CM/GC method by achieving substantial cost savings
through the following:
• Real-time cost estimating;
• Reduced overall Project duration and reductions in overhead costs.
Finding: The CM/GC method will help to ensure the Project is completed within the
proposed Project budget because, as discussed above, the CM/GC method results in a
greater understanding of the Project by the CM/GC, reducing both the incentive and the
factual basis for change orders. It also brings the knowledge and experience of the
CM/GC onto the project team while there is still time to make the design more efficient
relative to both the estimated cost and the staging plan. For these reasons, the CM/GC
method will result in greater cost control compared to the DBB method.
The CM/GC contracting method allows the Contractor to understand and incorporate
value engineering ideas, and to participate in the acquisition of permits during the Project
design phase, reducing the overall cost of the Project and avoiding costly change orders
or disputes that impact the City's budget or schedule for the Project.
The CM/GC contracting process affords the opportunity for the contractor to participate
during the design phases of the Project, lending its expertise, knowledge, and
experience to provide feedback as to whether the Project's proposed design is feasible
within the project parameters. Similarly, this allows the contractor to make value
engineering suggestions, that is, suggestions that propose alternative and less
expensive ways of achieving the same result. This can result in more practical,
constructible, and economical design solutions while maintaining the design's integrity.
Participation in the design process also enables the contractor to become more familiar
with the Project features and requirements before it prepares its price and schedule for
the work. This familiarity means that the contractor may not include cost contingencies
City of Tigard Findings
Universal Plaza Park Page 6
that other contractors frequently include in their bids to take account of uncertainties that
are not resolvable during the brief bidding period under a traditional design-bid-build
competitive bid process.
Finally, the CM/GC contracting process allows the contractor to participate in the Project
permitting processes. By including the contractor's means and methods with the permit
applications, the City will avoid delays and increased costs associated with permit
acquisition. It will also avoid permit conditions that require prescriptive means and
methods specifications for a competitively bid contract that can lead to change orders
and disputes when the low bidder proposes alternate means and methods of
construction.
V. GRANTING THE EXEMPTION SUPPORTS OTHER SUBSTANTIAL BENEFITS
A. HOW MANY PERSONS ARE AVAILABLE TO BID
The CM/GC contracting method will result in broader participation and greater
competition than the traditional bidding process. All qualified general contractors and
construction management firms will have an opportunity to compete. These firms include
some that might not be willing to face the uncertainties and potential financial risks
associated with bidding and contracting for construction under a traditional design-bid-
build competitive bid process. There are numerous qualified firms in the Portland Metro
area and beyond that will be able bid on this Project.
B. OPERATIONAL. BUDGET. AND FINANCIAL REQUIREMENTS
Using the CM/GC method will allow the City to hire the CM/GC during the design phase
of the Project and allow the CM/GC to develop a comprehensive construction schedule
and sequencing before initiating the work with input from the project team. The
interaction between the project team and the CM/GC during the design process means
it is more likely that the final design will take into account potential construction problems
and allow early coordination of connections to existing facilities.
It is necessary to carefully consider the means and methods of construction during
design stages to ensure a minimum of delays and additional costs during construction.
Adding the CM/GC to the design team between the 30% and 60% design phases will
provide information on constructability and create a logical sequence for construction.
The CM/GC method fosters coordination and efficiency in design and construction.
The CM/GC method will allow the City to have more participation and control than the
traditional DBB method. This construction contracting method carries both the lowest
risk and lowest construction and operating cost compared with any other alternative.
This approach also offers the greatest flexibility, risk reduction, reliability, and ease of
construction.
The CM/GC method will facilitate a much greater Project understanding by the CM/GC
before construction starts, and a longer lead time in which to craft a thoughtful and
City of Tigard Findings
Universal Plaza Park Page 7
comprehensive construction schedule and cost proposals. It is unlikely that even an
experienced contractor would have the time to produce a plan of this quality without the
lead time and team interaction the CM/GC method provides because traditionally the
DBB process allows no time or opportunity for interaction with the owner or design
contractors before the construction Notice to Proceed (NTP) is issued. In addition, the
RFP process for selecting the CM/GC will give the City greater opportunity to question
the respondents to discern the best responses to these issues, and to check references.
By minimizing surprises, incorporating cost savings ideas in the original design phase,
and avoiding hurried plans or adaptations to the construction plan, it is likely that the City
can avoid costly change orders or disputes that impact the schedule or budget. In
contrast, the DBB method of construction does not allow for input on the part of the
contractor during the design phase. The DBB method also can produce cost overruns if
a critical portion of the plans is unclear, which may require redesign and sometimes
entitle the contractor to additional compensation. Utilization of the CM/GC method
permits the contractor to understand the designer's intent and the plans because of close
cooperation with the designer and thus reduces this risk.
A typical CM/GC project produces what is known as a "Guaranteed Maximum Price."
Although the contract price can still change (for example, if the scope of work changes
or unforeseen site conditions are discovered) usually such contracts provide greater
price certainty for the City.
As a result, the use of a CM/GC method on this type of Project is more likely to meet the
City's budget, avoid unnecessary cost overruns and disputes, and provide greater
financial certainty for the City.
Finding:A competitive selection of a CM/GC offers the greatest flexibility, risk reduction,
reliability, and ease of construction. The Project budget is likely to be more stable as a
result of this approach and it is less likely that there will be Project overruns. In
comparison to the DBB method, the CM/GC method is less likely to cause budget
overruns.
C. PUBLIC BENEFITS
It is likely that there will be a lower chance of disruption to the schedule, cost overruns,
and delays by using the CM/GC contracting approach. Electing to adopt reasonable
measures such as alternative contracting to meet commitments and to decrease the risk
of total construction cost overruns, falls well within the City's fundamental fiduciary duty
to manage taxpayer resources responsibly.
The CM/GC method may allow construction of the current facility plan at a lower life-
cycle cost of any other technically feasible procurement alternative identified to date,
including a DBB method. A CM/GC contracting approach will allow the public to receive
the benefits of both timeliness and best value and minimizes risk to the City by awarding
the contract to the most qualified contractor.
City of Tigard Findings
Universal Plaza Park Page 8
Using a CM/GC method provides more opportunities during design and construction to
address constructability, modify construction means and methods, and improve
schedule and budget compliance.This construction approach also provides the following
public benefits:
• Success in neighbor relations, including improved planning and coordination
regarding dust, noise, and other impacts or disruptions;
• Ensuring access to adjacent properties is maintained;
• Selects a contractor based on qualifications resulting in overall value to the
Project.
• Coordination with Clean Water Services and environmental requirements during
construction.
Finding: The competitive Request for Proposals (RFP) used in the CM/GC method of
procurement maximizes public benefit by ensuring the selection of a contractor who is
well qualified to effectively minimize the public impacts caused by the work. In contrast,
the DBB method, which does not permit the contractor to become involved in the Project
until after the design is complete, would be less likely to achieve these goals.
D. VALUE ENGINEERING
The CM/GC method will give the CM/GC an opportunity to partner with the City's project
team and design contractor in performing value engineering (VE) and constructability
reviews during design. Value engineering is a process in which Project stakeholders
compare the total Project cost to Project performance and evaluate the benefit-to-cost
ratio. With a CM/GC method of procurement, constructability is continuously evaluated,
and final costs are determined early in the process (that is, prior to completion of the
final design). The early and realistic determination of costs allows the City to adjust
design and construction methods based on real costs. In contrast, construction
contractor input for the Project, while it is being designed, is not possible using the
conventional DBB method.
Early involvement of the CM/GC will more efficiently attain the Project objectives. The
CM/GC can see conditions while design is ongoing and provide input. The CM/GC's
construction experience and knowledge will help identify and resolve issues prior to
construction and will aid in early identification of effective measures to minimize
disruption. This partnering will likely reduce the need for change orders, claims, and
delays, resulting in cost savings and delivery of quality facilities on time.
Having the CM/GC review the design prior to the start of construction best leverages the
value engineering ideas that are accepted and incorporated into the final design. It is
less expensive to implement ideas during design than to wait and provide a change order
and potential redesign during construction.
City of Tigard Findings
Universal Plaza Park Page 9
Finding: Hiring a contractor through the CM/GC method provides for feedback from the
construction contractor during design, and participation in the design and development
of the Project helps the Project to be completed within the estimated cost. In contrast,
the DBB process does not permit contractor involvement during the design phase of the
Project and limits value engineering possibilities.
E. SPECIALIZED EXPERTISE REQUIRED
The CM/GC process allows the City to contract with a contractor that demonstrates the
required specialized expertise. Utilizing a CM/GC will allow the contractor to provide
valuable input during the design process. Constructability issues can be addressed
preceding the actual construction activities.
The CM/GC contracting process will provide the best opportunity to select the most
knowledgeable and qualified contractor with the necessary expertise for this Project. An
alternative contracting method, such as CM/GC, provides the only realistic way to make
sure that expertise is available to the project during the design phase.
In contrast, the DBB method does not permit the City to use the contractor's expertise
to help design the project. Although the DBB process, through the use of contractor
prequalification, permits the City to make sure that only contractors who are minimally
qualified bid on the project, it does not permit the City to select the most qualified
contractor to perform this work. Evaluating contractor expertise on this project in the
most beneficial way requires a CM/GC contracting process to maximize the project
success and minimize unanticipated costs.
The CM/GC process is critical in allowing the CM/GC to be intensely involved in the
design, value engineering, schedule, risk-reduction, and overall successful completion
of this Project.
Finding: Procurement using the CM/GC method allows the City to evaluate the
qualifications of the contractors seeking contract award, including an evaluation of their
expertise. In contrast, the DBB method sets a minimum threshold for qualifications and
does not permit the City to evaluate contractors based on their expertise. As a result,
the CM/GC method is more likely to result in hiring the best contractor for the job.
F & G. PUBLIC SAFETY AND REDUCTION OF RISKS
As a public Project, it is important to build the Project with safety foremost in the
contractor's approach to ensure safe working conditions for the contractor, neighbors,
and members of the public who could be affected by the Project.
The CM/GC method enables the selected CM/GC to provide input during the design
process including establishing a safety plan and a coordinated construction phasing
plan. This process is more likely than the DBB method to result in early implementation
of health and safety measures to protect City staff, construction workers, and the public
City of Tigard Findings
Universal Plaza Park Page 10
throughout the Project.
The CM/GC method will allow the City the best opportunity to provide additional weight
in the selection process to proposers with successful safety records. It also enables the
selected CM/GC to establish a transportation plan and to consider their means and
methods through the lens of safety. The DBB method, in contrast, may not result in the
selection of the most qualified contractor. See Paragraph C, Public Benefits, for more
discussion of the process.
In the traditional DBB method, there is little allowance for change during construction,
and the City assumes the risk for schedule delays, unanticipated costs, and claims. The
CM/GC method allows the CM/GC to provide input during design which transfers some
risk (e.g., cost, schedule, safety, and constructability) to the CM/GC. Early input into the
design allows the CM/GC to begin planning the construction schedule and cost
estimates, and begin early identification of risks to the schedule, cost, and operations.
This process allows the CM/GC to advise on these risks and develop mitigation options
that reduce the risk of construction delays and unanticipated costs to the City.
Finding: The CM/GC method allows safety, cost, and schedule performance on similar
projects to be considered as selection criteria. It also permits the City to work closely
with the CM/GC during the design phase of the Project to identify and mitigate safety
concerns and risks to schedule, cost, and operations. In contrast, the DBB method does
not permit the City to discuss these issues with a contractor until after the design is
completed and does not permit the close interaction with the contractor to better
understand the project and the City's concerns.
H. FUNDING SOURCES
The total cost for the CM/GC contract is estimated at $3,550,000 and includes pre-
construction and construction services.
The total project cost includes a contingency which is a percentage of Project costs
above the stated amount that the Project may exceed. As the Project design progresses
from early to later design stages, the confidence rating goes up (improves) and the
contingency percentage may go down. This means that, as the design progresses, the
estimation of how much the Project will cost may vary from the budgeted amount, and
in theory, may be reduced. Maximum construction contract amounts within the fixed
budget will be negotiated with the selected CM/GC. The CM/GC method permits more
financial certainty where the DBB method does not present the same degree of
reassurance.
Finding: The Project is funded using City of Tigard TIF District and Park System
Development Charges (SDC) Funds. The Project is funded in the current fiscal year
budget and is expected to be included in the fiscal year budgets through 2027. While
funding does not change based on use of the CM/GC method, the Project budget is
likely to be more stable because of that process and it is less likely that there will be
City of Tigard Findings
Universal Plaza Park Page 11
Project overruns. In comparison to the DBB method, the CM/GC method will provide a
maximum contract amount earlier in the design process and is less likely to cause budget
overruns. The DBB method sometimes has project overruns which require finding
additional sources of funds.
I. MARKET CONDITIONS
A CM/GC method of procurement would reach the same or greater market of
construction contractors as the DBB method. The Request for Proposals (RFP) for
specialized skills, size of the Project, and major components of work necessary for the
Project could reach the regional and state marketplace. Competitive contracting to this
market will be obtained during the solicitation for qualifications and proposals. Utilizing
the CM/GC method of procurement ensures that the Project design and construction
sequencing will employ all market innovations in means and methods. A CM/GC would
be selected using the City's alternative procurement process that evaluates
qualifications and proposals to ensure the best combination of technical expertise at a
cost-effective price.
The CM/GC method has the added benefit of allowing the selected CM/GC to solicit
competitive bids for various aspects of work (equipment, labor, etc.) as the work is ready
to go out to bid and coordinate construction activities among all resources to minimize
construction risks and delays. The CM/GC will be able to prepare material and
equipment submittals early and issue purchase orders to suppliers and vendors during
design for timely delivery. This would also provide increased opportunity to identify and
reach out to qualified Disadvantaged, Minority, Women, Service-Disabled, and
Emerging Small Businesses (D/M/W/SV/ESB) that may otherwise not have an
opportunity to participate in the Project.
Because the City will be advertising for a CM/GC, a CM/GC method will reach the same
or greater number of contractors as the DBB method. Therefore, the City can take
advantage of market conditions that promote competition. The CM/GC method provides
the best assurance that the most qualified and most cost-effective subcontractors,
suppliers, and vendors would be available to meet the schedule at a competitive cost.
The City will issue an RFP for a CM/GC contract for this Project in accordance with
procedures that will attract competition for this contract from qualified contractors in the
construction community. The RFP will be advertised in the Daily Journal of Commerce
and will be posted on the City's website. Potential contractors will submit proposals. A
Selection Committee, consisting of personnel from the City, will evaluate the proposals
and will select a contractor based on the highest-scoring proposal and subsequent
interviews, if necessary.
The selection process will be completed under the supervision of the City's Contracts &
Purchasing Office. The evaluation process will be based on predefined criteria such as
comparable experience of the company and individuals assigned to the project, the
proposed CM/GC profit, overhead, and insurance rates to be applied to construction
City of Tigard Findings
Universal Plaza Park Page 12
costs, equity contracting, project approach and understanding, and safety.
Subcontracted portions of the work will be contracted by the CM/GC. The CM/GC
method will not limit competition or encourage favoritism in the selection process when
compared to the standard DBB method.
The RFP will also include D/M/W/SV/ESB outreach considerations.
Finding: The CM/GC method uses a competitive selection process with qualifications
being one of the criteria. This selection does not significantly change the pool of
contractors qualified to bid on the Project, but does allow the City to select the most
qualified contractor for the Project. The CM/GC procurement process can start earlier,
taking advantage of the current economic market. In contrast, the DBB method does not
permit the contractor to get an early start on the Project. The CM/GC selection process
and hiring of subcontractors uses competitive procurement. Selection of a CM/GC does
not limit competition or encourage favoritism in the selection process.
J. TECHNICAL COMPLEXITY
This is a technically complex Project because of the aggressive schedule, specialized
water feature, and requirements with adjacency to Fanno Creek. The CM/GC method
allows the City to acquire a highly qualified contractor. As a result, it is more likely that
the CM/GC can resolve the technical complexities of the Project more efficiently, in part
because of its qualifications and in part because it will have additional time to evaluate
solutions for handling problems during the design and construction process.
The CM/GC method will allow the CM/GC to proactively be involved in design to help
develop construction approaches and methods to place the Project into operation
successfully. This early involvement in the design will allow the Project team and the
CM/GC to actively work together to find solutions to complete this Project while
maintaining existing operations. Such involvement in the design stage would not be
possible using the traditional DBB method.
The Project requires establishment of a construction coordination plan (two other
projects adjacent to the site are projected to be under construction at the same time)
construction management plan, erosion and stormwater control plan, traffic control plan,
and a health and safety plan. Some of these plans will require close coordination with
the public, other City Departments, and permitting agencies. This can be a time-
consuming process. The CM/GC method allows the CM/GC additional time during the
preconstruction services phase of the contract for this planning and permitting process,
thus making it more likely that the Project can be completed on schedule.
The CM/GC would be responsible for supplying and coordinating the various
subcontractors to complete the work. This project requires that the construction
contractor understand and be able to manage all aspects of work. A qualified and
informed contractor is imperative to managing these elements. The CM/GC method
allows selection of the most qualified contractor to function as a partner in the design
City of Tigard Findings
Universal Plaza Park Page 13
and construction process, rather than requiring the City to accept the contractor that
submits the lowest responsive bid.
The conventional DBB method, based strictly on the initial price, does not guarantee
hiring the contractor best able to handle the technical complexity of the project. Hiring a
DBB contractor based strictly on submittal of the lowest bid may well cause the City
additional short-term and long-term costs and risks. See Section V.B, Operational,
Budget, and Financial Requirements and Section V.E, Specialized Expertise Required,
for more discussion of the process.
Finding: The CM/GC method ensures hiring a contractor with technical expertise to
participate in the design and construction to identify and resolve technical issues
effectively. The same reasons that support the finding regarding specialized expertise
are applicable here and are incorporated by reference.
K. CONSTRUCTION OF A NEW STRUCTURE AND INTEGRATION INTO AN
EXISTING STRUCTURE
The Project includes new construction that must integrate and connect with existing
facilities. A new restroom/kiosk building will be built requiring city connections. Further
critical project elements include the impacts and integration of the flood plain along the
west side of the site including Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA)
mapping regulations and difficult stormwater connections. Coordination is expected on
treatment and hydromodification requirements. The CM/GC method will allow the
CM/GC to inform the final design with respect to site and operational constraints during
construction and allow early coordination of connections to existing facilities.
Finding: The Project includes new construction and connection to existing structures.
Integration of new and existing structures will require close coordination between the
City and the CM/GC during design and construction. In contrast, the DBB method does
not permit the City to discuss and coordinate integration risks and constraints with the
contractor until after the design is completed.
L. OCCUPANCY DURING CONSTRUCTION
The Project will not require occupancy by the public during construction, but adjacent
properties and buildings will need to remain fully operational and occupied during all
phases of construction. The CM/GC method will allow the CM/GC to work with the
project team to understand access, noise, and debris removal challenges and
constraints that may impact construction.
Finding: The CM/GC will be able to develop a thoughtful and comprehensive
construction schedule that accommodates access, noise and debris removal constraints
and minimizes conflicts between construction activities and operation of adjacent
properties. In contrast, the DBB method does not permit the City to discuss and
City of Tigard Findings
Universal Plaza Park Page 14
coordinate constraints with the contractor until after the design is completed.
M. PHASING OF THE PROJECT
The CM/GC will be added to the design team between the 30% and 60% design phases.
Adding the CM/GC at this design stage will allow the CM/GC to provide early input on
construction phasing, construction staging areas and access corridors, and connections
to existing facilities. The CM/GC method may also allow the CM/GC to begin
construction on early work packages while the design is being finalized. Completion of
early work packages will allow any unforeseen conditions to be coordinated and
addressed efficiently during ongoing design.
Finding: The CM/GC method will allow more flexibility for unforeseen conditions to be
incorporated into the design with the least cost and schedule impacts. In contrast, the
DBB method does not permit contractor to begin any construction work until after the
design is completed, resulting in potentially costly change orders or disputes that may
impact the schedule or budget.
N. EXPERTISE AND EXPERIENCE OF THE CITY'S CONSULTANTS AND LEGAL
COUNSEL IN ALTERNATIVE CONTRACTING METHODS
City personnel and their consultants have the expertise and experience necessary to
effectively implement the CM/GC contracting method and to negotiate, administer, and
enforce the terms of the resultant construction contract for the Project.
Finding: The City has no recent experience with CM/CG contracting and also has limited
resources to manage this complex project. The City has retained Shiels Obletz Johnsen
to provide assistance as an Owners Representative with experience in alternative
delivery. Legal assistance will be provided the City Attorney or by an independent legal
firm with the appropriate expertise as needed.
IV. CONCLUSION
The City of Tigard meets the requirements for allowing an exemption to the competitive
bidding process as identified in ORS 279C.335(2). Use of CM/GC alternative
procurement process for the Tigard Universal Plaza Park allows:
■ Evaluation of total Project costs based on a Project design that was value
engineered by the CM/GC;
■ Guarantee of the maximum price at final design, absent changes in the scope of
work;
■ Access to technical expertise in planning for sequencing construction phases
during design;
■ Taking advantage of the CM/GC's knowledge and experience in assessing
constructability and developing cost effective designs;
City of Tigard Findings
Universal Plaza Park Page 15
■ Experienced management of multiple technical subcontractors;
■ Team-building and partnering with City project management staff and the
design team;
■ Early procurement of long lead materials and equipment;
■ Coordinated responsibility for worker safety;
■ CM/GC assumption of some risk (e.g., cost, schedule, safety, maintaining
service, quality and constructability);
■ Reduction of risk of construction delays and unanticipated costs for the City;
■ Accelerated schedule with early solicitation of subcontract bid packages and
early construction concurrent with final design;
■ CM/GCs with experience constructing and commissioning similar
projects; and
■ Selection of a CM/GC based on qualifications.

Length (in minutes): 30 Minutes
Agenda Title: Receive Alongside Senior Housing Project Plan Update
Submitted By: Sean Farrelly, Community
Development
Item Type: Update, Discussion, Direct Staff Meeting Type: Council
Business
Meeting -

Public Hearing: No Publication Date:
Information
ISSUE
The Disposition and Development Agreement ("DDA") with Northwest Housing
Alternatives provides for a council update and informal review of the Senior Housing
Alongside Senior Center Project Plan.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION / ACTION REQUEST
Council is requested to review the Housing Alongside the Senior Center Project Plan and
provide comment, if any.
KEY FACTS AND INFORMATION SUMMARY
On November 10, 2020, the Tigard City Council authorized the City Manager to execute a
DDA between Northwest Housing Alternatives ("NHA") and the City of Tigard. The
planned project is a four-story building with 57 one-bedroom units, including a full-time
manager's unit, located on a leased portion of the Tigard Senior Center site. The income
restricted apartments will provide much needed housing to seniors (62 and older), including
seniors getting by on Supplemental Security Income or Social Security Disability (often less
than $16,000 per year). Additionally, the project will prioritize housing for veterans and
seniors with disabilities.
In September 2020, Washington County awarded $6,270,000 in Metro Housing Bond funds
to the project. Project Based Vouchers were also awarded, ensuring that tenants in 23 units
will pay no more than 30 percent of their income on rent. Together these awards allow for
rents to be reduced to better serve the local senior community. NHA is in the process of
obtaining additional financing to complete the project.
The project is currently in the second stage of design. The Schematic Design phase is used to
develop a plan of action regarding how a building will look, based on the budget and specific
design requirements. The development team has started the land use process, attending a
pre-application conference and holding the required neighborhood meeting on February 25,
2021. The main concerns expressed at the meeting were about parking, particularly the
possibility of resident and visitor overflow parking on Chelsea Loop. Tigard land use planners
will review the project application for conformance with Tigard's Development Code.
Community Engagement Events
In fall 2019, a project Advisory Committee was established to create guiding principles and
document opportunities and challenges about the project. The committee consists of
immediate neighbors, Senior Center patrons, Tigard Senior Center/Meals on Wheels staff,
and members of the Town Center Advisory Commission. Former councilor Tom Anderson
was a member. The committee continues to meet regularly as the project progresses, most
recently on March 3, 2021.
Over the past 18 months, the Housing Alongside the Senior Center project has held 20
community engagement events - including Advisory Committee meetings, City Council and
Town Center Advisory Commission presentations and Community Conversations.
The Development Agreement includes a provision for City Staff and Developer to present
the Project Plan to the City Council, after a public open house has been held. The project has
been responsive to public input since its conception. This input has resulted in beneficial
changes to the design and site plan of the project including:
Building site and size.
The building was reviewed in multiple locations on the property, and ultimately was located in
a position that follows the hillside alongside the Senior Center. This reduced the building's
perceived size, allowing it to fit into the neighborhood character. The final location also
allows for a common entry court with the Senior Center, and flat areas of the site that can be
maximized for a revised and increased parking opportunity.
Apartment homes need to be fully accessible to people of all abilities.
Every housing unit will be designed to be fully American with Disabilities Act (ADA)
accessible and utilize "Universal Design" principals. In this way, seniors can age in place for
the longest period possible and be secure that their home will adapt with them.
Rooftop and patio vantage points that residents can enjoy while retaining neighbors'
privacy.
The building design allows for pleasant views of Fanno Creek from all the units. Additionally,
a rooftop amenity space has been recommended and is being reviewed. Any amenity will be
configured to limit sight lines to neighboring properties through the use of screens and
plantings.
Parking and Security Concerns
Current site plans show 79 parking spaces, an increase of 31 spaces from the existing lot. It
will be reconfigured for safety, maneuverability and pedestrian movement. Additionally,
security cameras and lighting will create a space that will feel safe, welcoming and active during
the day and evening activities.
Public Access to Fanno Creek
As part of the development, a fully accessible, new pedestrian path from O'Mara Street to the
Fanno Creek Trail will be constructed that will enhance pedestrian safety and security.
Upcoming timeline:
Fall 2020-Spring 2021:
•Project Design and land use review
•Public input and advisory meetings and Detail Design and Site Plan Work.
Summer— Fall 2021:
•Parking management plan, easement agreements, and agreement on landscaping/parking
lot maintenance.
•Secure Construction and Permanent Financing.
•Apply for Building Permits
February 2022:
• Commence Construction
Spring 2023:
•Lease to Seniors.

ISSUE
The Public Safety Advisory Board (PSAB) has a vacancy for a community representative,
voting member. The Council action tonight is to fill that vacancy. The candidates for Council
to consider were selected based on the community caucus and Council discussion during the
original selection of Board members.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION / ACTION REQUEST
Discuss candidates and select a new PSAB voting member.
KEY FACTS AND INFORMATION SUMMARY
The community members in consideration to fill the PSAB vacancy were drawn from the
original pool of candidates. City team members reviewed the results of the community caucus
and Council's conversation on October 27, 2020 during the selection of the original board
members. This process was followed to reflect the community-led focus of this Board.
Council should consider how they would like to fill future vacancies.
Council Discussion 10/27/2020: https://voutu.be/fDvH-rO7bYw?t=904
Thirty-eight community members applied to serve on the board during the founding phase.
The virtual community caucus was held to decide on the final 16 candidates. Of the final 16
candidates, 2 candidates withdrew from consideration due to the time commitment and
another candidate did not submit the requested supplemental materials. City team members
contacted all seven of the original Top 16 who were not appointed, including those who
withdrew and did not submit supplemental materials in case their situation changed. City team
members verified interest and residency.
Two community members met the residency requirement and expressed interest:
- Shaun Stuhldryer (Mentioned at Oct. 27, 2020 meeting)
- Nick Jarmer (Mentioned at Oct. 27, 2020 meeting)
One community member does not meet the residency requirement, but expressed interest:
-Justus Rogers (Mentioned at Oct. 27, 2020 meeting)
One community member is no longer able to serve due to work responsibilities, but remains
interested:
- Sally Gradin
Three community members who were contacted had not replied as of March 29, 2021:
-Brad Dorsey
-David Raines
-Astor Chambers (Mentioned at Oct. 27, 2020 meeting)
Applicants were not asked additional questions. Their answers to the original questions are
found in the attachments. Those questions were:
•Describe the diverse community groups in Tigard you are best able to represent on the
Public Safety Advisory Board. Why do you feel you are qualified to represent each of the
groups. How would you keep these various groups informed about the work and
progress of the Public Safety Advisory Board?
•Describe an experience when you worked collaboratively with people of diverse
perspectives and experiences to achieve a common goal. Was the goal achieved? What
went well and why? What would you have done differently if you could start the work
over again and why?
•Beginning in May 2020, demonstrations over the police killing of George Floyd have
been held in Portland. Most of the protests have been peaceful, but some have involved
arson, looting, vandalism, and injuries. From your perspective, how should the City of
Portland, State of Oregon, and federal government have responded to the protests? At a
minimum, please cover public safety, free speech, and private property rights.
Originally, six Tigard residents from the community at-large, with preference to those that can
best represent the BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, and faith communities in Tigard were appointed to
the PSAB. Of the current alternates, one is not a Tigard resident and the other has
volunteered to take a leave of absence pending the District Attorney's investigation into the
officer-involved shooting. Council could move either of these individuals to voting status,
depending on how Council wishes to address the residency requirement.
The City Council approved the PSAB Work Plan and Topic Schedule on March 23, 2021.
The new voting member will join as the Board begins its work.
OTHER ALTERNATIVES
Alternative I*: Appoint one of the two alternates to be a voting member (may require
additional clarification on residency requirement).
* Of the current alternates, one is not a Tigard resident and the other has volunteered to take
a leave of absence pending the District Attorney's investigation into the officer-involved
shooting. Council could move either of these individuals to voting status, depending on how

Alternative 2: Appoint a new voting member from this list of candidates.
Alternative 3: Offer guidance on filling the PSAB vacancy and consider at a later meeting.

PUBLIC SAFETY
ADVISORY BOARD
Community Caucus:26 Votes(16th)
Shaun Stuhldryer
In 500 words or less,describe the personal or professional experiences that make you qualified to serve on the Advisory Board.
My personal experiences:
1. I come from a blended family and am a 3rd generation immigrant with a mix of Hispanic, native american and
European roots.
2. One of my grandfathers was a sharecropper in the early 1900s the other was a Hispanic-American Indian who
served for the 101st Airborne Division in the Korean Way and survived the Chosin Reservoir withdrawal.
3. My mother (who is half Hispanic / American Indian) is a hate crime survivor.
4. My father was a 2-tour Vietnam War veteran and survivor with acute PTSD untreated by the VA.
5. Both of my parents were unable to complete high school due to family hardships however later on finished their
GED and after moving to Oregon went back to College as adults and successfully completed degrees. My mother
and I actually received our Bachelor's degree at the same time.
6. My mother was a teen pregnancy (I came from that teen pregnancy). In my early childhood I was homeless for a
period of time.
7. Despite these challenges, I was able to successfully navigate the public school system, served with honors in the
United States Marine Corps and with the 1st Marine Division in Iraq in 2003 (removing dangerous and damaged
ordinance in Karbala and Baghdad schools and neighborhoods), obtained a Master's Degree in Business
Administration from Portland State University, now work for a Fortune 500 company and am a homeowner in
Tigard, OR.
8. I have children in TTSD schools and am acutely aware of the issues they face with budget shortfalls and
competing public policies.
9. I am supportive of the Tigard Police Department, their officers and any proposed changes to public policy
that would reduce the number of police calls for services, recruit and retain qualified police officers, promote
equity and inclusion in our community and foster community collaboration and sense of belonging for all Tigard
residents.
10.1 spend my free time with my wife and children, volunteering in the community and enjoy hiking, skiing and the
outdoors.
My professional experiences:
1. My area of expertise includes institutional and commercial capital projects including planning, site acquisition,
new development, occupied buildings & campuses, and historical renovations in a wide variety of regions
including Oregon, Washington, California and Utah.
2. I began working in the construction industry 25 years ago as a carpenter's apprentice, then continued on as
a carpenter while working through college. After graduating from Oregon State University with a Bachelor of
Science in Construction Engineering Management, I worked in the heavy civil sector and then
transitioned into building construction working for established Construction Manager / General
Contractors in various roles as a project engineer, estimator, project manager, superintendent and
construction manager while successfully completing over$400+ million in capital projects.
TIGARD (continued)
Shaun Stuhldryer Paget
3. I served in the United States Marine Corps and US Marine Corps Reserves as a non-commissioned officer,
deploying to Guatemala in 1999 for Hurricane Mitch disaster relief and Iraq in 2003. I worked in the roles of
squad leader, company level instructor/trainer, battalion liaison. I was honorably discharged and received the
Presidential Unit Citation, Good Conduct Medal, National Defense Service Medal, Iraq Campaign Medal, Global
War on Terrorism Service Medal, Humanitarian Service Medal, Sea Service Deployment Ribbon and the Armed
Forced Reserve Medal.
4. I am an MBA Graduate from Portland State University with a focus on leadership and sustainability, am
accredited as a Certified Construction Manager (CCM), Project Management Professional (PMP), Leadership in
Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) and OSHA 30.
Describe the diverse community groups in Tigard you are best able to represent on the Public Safety Advisory Board. Why do you
feel you are qualified to represent each of the groups.How would you keep these various groups informed about the work and
progress of the Public Safety Advisory Board?
I have a diverse group of friends, collogues and associates in the Tigard community and beyond. I would say that
the demographics are across the board and include persons of color, 1st generation immigrants, 'white' people with
longstanding community roots, persons who are LBGQT,veterans / non-veterans,working class people, professional
class people, privileged / not-privileged, parents, students, people employed in law enforcement but also people
with criminal histories that they have overcome, liberal/independent/conservative, people from traditional and non-
traditional families. >From my perspective every person has a unique outlook based on their learned experiences and
their unique background and 'life story. I personally can be included in many of these groups even groups that appear
opposite at first glance. I believe I am qualified to represent all of these groups and not just the groups most similar to
my own demographic. I would be able to keep various groups through a variety of means:text,virtual meeting, social
media, group chat, presentation. I would look to the committees guidance and preferences on when feedback on
particular subjects should be solicited and methods.
Describe an experience when you worked collaboratively with people of diverse perspectives and experiences to achieve a
common goaL Was the goal achieved?What went well and why?What would you have done differently if you could start the
work over again and why?
I have worked collaboratively with people of diverse perspectives and experiences to achieve a common goal for
so many years, it would be hard to find an experience when I didn't do this. In college group projects, in the marine
corps, in volunteer organizations, in business, in family. Some of the greatest breakthrough moments come when you
work with a diverse group,you listen, reflect and collaborate on achieving the desired outcome. One example of an
experience with a collaborative group with diverse perspectives was as a project manager for client in the planning,
design and construction of a new elementary school.The design and construction team stakeholders included every
traditionally defined demographic possible.This was a very professional group and each person brought a highly
competent level of skill in their own area of professional expertise. Although the individuals in this group brought
their own personal learned experiences,the most observable factors were the professional experiences in their area
of expertise, differences in authority level and their expertise and knowledge of organization and partner agency
policies. In terms of challenges we faced with people and diversity what comes to mind the most would probably be
slight individual personality differences such as introvert/extrovert,communication style differences and learning
style differences.These slight personality differences were easily identified, accommodations made and there were no
adverse impacts.The project was a phenomenal success and the only thing I would do differently would be to make
sure I had this diverse group on every project.

Beginning in May 2020,demonstrations over the police killing of George Floyd have been held in Portland.Most of the
protests have been peaceful,but some have involved arson,looting, vandalism,and injuries.From your perspective,how
should the City of Portland,State of Oregon,and federal government have responded to the protests? At a minimum,please
cover public safety,free speech,and private property rights.
Black Lives Matter. Period.The killing of George Floyd was a terrible human tragedy.The subsequent peaceful protests
in Portland were a fundamental Civil Right, protected free speech and a noble cause. People have a right to express
their emotions on this issue and similar issues. Some of the most memorable images I will always remember were
when the police peacefully protested with the peaceful protesters. Unfortunately, not all protesters have been peaceful
and at times it seemed that some protesters actually have a completely different agenda then of the protesters that
were peacefully protesting the killing of George Floyd. In my opinion the arson, looting and vandalism serves to make
systemic racism worse. Not only does it not address root cause problems, but it exacerbates them.A few examples,
1) Focusing on accusations of widespread police brutality even though statically,there are relatively few cases in the
US where we have a population of 328,000,000 (in comparison the entire population of western Europe is 196,000,000)
instead of the root cause of tragic police encounters which is a function of the large number of calls for service that
police are responding to.You can argue how we got here, GMO food, rise in mental illness,drug addiction and human
trafficking,wage stagnation,social/economic/political conditions, but the fact is they are a tremendous number of
calls for service (in the hundreds of millions nation-wide driven by the community, not police enforcement of our civil
and societal rules. 2)The City of Portland conditions from arson, looting and vandalism hurt the very people that
they allege to be trying to help. People are less safe from person to person violence and assault both while out in
public and in their own homes, police are less able to respond to the residents and community members that rely on
them for public safety and it puts society at risk of declining from civil society to an environment of fear, retaliation,
escalation, hopelessness, all of which if left unchecked can create a very difficult cycle to break. 3)The arson, looting
and vandalism drives out small and large businesses and commerce which has a direct effect of defunding families,
schools,social services.This puts a burden on the state government to support the people and communities who have
lost income and results in the state and the community being less able to make schools better, make police better,
keep the community safe, provide access to medical and mental health care and the list goes on. I felt that the City
of Portland, State of Oregon and Federal Government could have done a better job of reminding communities and
messaging to the communities across the country and here in Oregon not to judge an entire group by the actions of a
few, not to'convict'an entire group of people in your mind until all of the facts were known,that deep and meaningful
change comes about through a united people, not one of boarded up businesses and community buildings,that their
voices are heard louder and are more meaningful through peaceful protests and on social media, not through violent
behavior. I feel the City could have done a better job of messaging to the public that violent behavior would carry the
same societal consequences as for someone acting alone and not part of the protest. I would have liked to see City of
Portland officials sideline the looters,vandals and arsonists sooner in the process and for a longer time period and not
let them hijack the peaceful protesters message and voice.

PUBLIC SAFETY
ADVISORY BOARD
Community Caucus:36 Votes(13th)
Nick Jarmer
In 500 words or less,describe the personal or professional experiences that make you qualified to serve on the Advisory Board.
I have worked in the public safety field for nearly 30 years, and my wife and I have been residents of the city of
Tigard for almost 25 of those years. All 3 of my children went to Charles Fowler elementary, Fowler Middle school,
and then ultimately graduating from Tigard High school. I am currently working for the Multnomah County Sheriffs
Office in the Corrections Division, where I hold the rank of Captain. The Corrections Division main task is the
care and custody of adults in custody in Multnomah County jails. Throughout my career I have seen first hand
the difficulty, confusion, and trauma that is inflicted on individuals during incarceration. I have always, and will
continue to make it my everyday goal to treat every one with dignity and respect. While this is only one example
of Procedural Justice, I find that other work goals are defined by the remaining three tenets of procedural justice:
giving citizens a voice during encounters, being neutral in decision making, and conveying trustworthy motives.
To this end communication and listening have become two of the best behaviors that I have acquired. Anytime I
communicate with someone, whether it be by spoken word, or in writing, I have always strived to be respectful,
listen to their own perception/ideas, make sure they understand that I have heard them, earn their trust so that the
final decision made is based on these understandings. I have learned these routines through many years of training
that Multnomah County Sheriff has provided me. I have taken, or instructed, multiple trainings in understanding
and accepting Implicit Bias, annual Ethics in Public safety, Diversity, Discrimination and Harassment,Trauma
Informed Care and Trauma Intervention, Mental Health First Aid, Peer Support, De-escalation Techniques, Crisis
Intervention, Force Liability, and many more. When I first started at the Multnomah County Sheriff's Office in 1991,
Law Enforcement was seen as a noble career. Fast forward roughly 30 years, and a lot has changed. With the
current climate in our country, and in other places around the world, Law Enforcement is not looked at too favorably
by a large portion of society. I know in my heart and in my mind who I am; I don't think I have changed much in the
last 30 years. However,the world around me has changed, and I need to change with it. Public Safety has.
Describe the diverse community groups in Tigard you are best able to represent on the Public Safety Advisory Board. Why do you
feel you are qualified to represent each of the groups.How would you keep these various groups informed about the work and
progress of the Public Safety Advisory Board?
Most of my community involvements has come through the Multnomah County Sheriff's Office, and therefore in
the city of Portland. I believe I can represent similar communities in the City of Tigard. I am a voting member of the
Behavioral Health Unit Advisory Council; which advises the Portland Police Bureau on concerns surrounding justice
involved people with a mental health nexus and I am a member of Alliance for Safer Communities representing
marginalized/under-represented communities. Of course any group involved in Law Enforcement I can represent
simply based on my career choice and current employment.The groups I currently belong to have at least monthly
meetings in which we report back to the communities we represent.
TIGARD (continued)
Nick Jarmer Paget
Describe an experience when you worked collaboratively with people of diverse perspectives and experiences to achieve a
common goaL Was the goal achieved?What went well and why?What would you have done differently if you could start the
work over again and why?
On a weekly basis, I am involved in a Management Plan meeting that determines in-custody housing for our adults
in custody that re under-represented by the incarcerated population as a whole; such as Transgender individuals,
persons needing ADA accommodations,and others.The committee consists of uniform staff, Medical and Mental
Health professionals, Programmatic staff, and "first line"staff. Each week we meet our goal of finding the best in-
custody options for housing these adults in custody. If I could start this process over again, I would lean more on
preparation of all parties involved in these meetings. Sometimes decisions are made with out the benefit of complete
information blocks.
Beginning in May 2020,demonstrations over the police killing of George Floyd have been held in Portland.Most of the
protests have been peaceful,but some have involved arson,looting, vandalism,and injuries.From your perspective,how
should the City of Portland,State of Oregon,and federal government have responded to the protests? At a minimum,please
cover public safety,free speech,and private property rights.
Since my office for the Multnomah County Sheriff's Office is located in the Justice Center building, I have seen
firsthand the destruction of the downtown Portland area since the end of May 2020. I would have liked to see the
City of Portland more involved with the demonstrations right at the beginning. Instead,the City took a "wait and see"
approach.This failed miserably and it turned into a "us against them"approach.The time to discuss passed quickly,
and the City was not prepared for it. From my perspective, it was easy to see who was protesting and who was rioting.
Although the rioters "hid"with in the protests, had the City been on the same page as the protestors, possibly the
protestors could have become an ally against the people committing all the property damage and putting innocent
people in grave danger.We never needed over whelming force to control these crowds; dialogue a t the start may have
prevented some of this violence altogether.

Justus Rogers
In 500 words or less,describe the personal or professional experiences that make you qualified to serve on the Advisory Board.
My name is Justus Rogers and I am a black resident of Tigard. I moved to Tigard from Lake Oswego after
experiencing racism and prejudice on a regular basis. I love the diversity here and haven't had as many issues.
I'm a journalist and often reach out to locals about community concerns/topics. I deeply care about the Tigard
community and love everybody here. My goal is always to help educate people on social justice issues here in
America. Politics seem to always be a hot topic in Portland and the state of Oregon. I do my best to approach these
conversations with love and truth. My family was heavily involved in the Civil Rights movement and it is my goal to
continue what they started. I'm thankful to have a very diverse network of people in the area. This network includes
business owners and professionals in Tigard, King City and Tualatin. In my media career I've worked for CBS, NBC
News and TNT. I believe my life experiences and career will provide a helpful perspective to the board.
Describe the diverse community groups in Tigard you are best able to represent on the Public Safety Advisory Board. Why do you
feel you are qualified to represent each of the groups.How would you keep these various groups informed about the work and
progress of the Public Safety Advisory Board?
As a member of Respond to Racism, I will communicate the efforts made by the PSAB. I'm qualified to represent
Respond to Racism because as an African American man, racism is my everyday reality. As a peacekeeper, it is always
my goal to bring people together in unity. So I will do my best to connect and network so that common goals can be
reached together in our community.
Describe an experience when you worked collaboratively with people of diverse perspectives and experiences to achieve a
common goal. Was the goal achieved? What went well and why? What would you have done differently if you could start the
work over again and why?
In college, I worked for the campus Equity and Inclusion office. Our staff was diverse with students from various
backgrounds. Our goal was to always make opportunities for marginalized student groups. We communicated well
and organized excellent events for students and the local community. I would not have changed anything about what
was accomplished.The program was a success.
Beginning in May 2020, demonstrations over the police killing of George Floyd have been held in Portland.Most of the
protests have been peaceful,but some have involved arson,looting, vandalism,and injuries.From your perspective,how
should the City of Portland,State of Oregon,and federal government have responded to the protests? At a minimum,please
cover public safety,free speech,and private property rights.
I do not condone arson, looting,vandalism, or violence. I never have and never will encourage damage to private
property. People should exercise their free speech rights without putting public safety at risk.

ISSUE
Mayor, Council President, and Councilors Council Liaison assignments.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION / ACTION REQUEST
1. Discuss and approve the Council Appointment Matrix.
2. Determine the frequency of making Council liaison role assignments.
KEY FACTS AND INFORMATION SUMMARY
Tthe Council discusses and assigns the Mayor, Council President, and Councilors to serve as a
liaison to various committees. This typically occurs during Council goal setting.
Goal setting this year was held in March and the agenda did not allow for liaison assignments
to be discussed. Since it is already April, the Council could determine that it is best to 1)
continue with the current assignments through 2021 and revise as necessary in January 2022
or 2) make any revisions now that would be in effect until December 2022. Moving forward, it
would be helpful to understand if the Council wants to make annual appointments or for a
two year period.
Additionally, Council may want to discuss if there is a role for a Council representative on the
Arts Council which is included at the beginning of the attached matrix. If Council believes
there is a role, we would recommend holding off on an assignment until this can be further
refined and then we would return for Council consideration. For your review, the 2019
Council Appointment Matrix is attached.

ISSUE
Consider extension of temporary encroachment permit program extending 6 months after the
end of the City's COVID-19 emergency.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION / ACTION REQUEST
Staff recommends approval of the resolution.
KEY FACTS AND INFORMATION SUMMARY
In May of 2020, the City passed a temporary resolution allowing free, temporary
encroachment permits to enable restaurant seating on City sidewalks. This option gives
restaurants increased seating options during the COVID-19 pandemic, while also protecting
the City's interest in ensuring the seating doesn't block vision clearance, ADA access, or create
other safety issues. Last year's resolution expired Dec 31, 2020.
The proposed resolution will enable the City to continue granting these temporary
encroachment permits for no charge to applicants. The permits will expire 6 months after the
end of the City's declared emergency.
OTHER ALTERNATIVES
If Council elects to not take action, an applicant would still be required to obtain an
encroachment permit for any furnishings on City sidewalks using the standard process and
paying a $25 fee.
