STATUS OF TIGARO-TUALRTIN SCHOOL DISTRICT; AND
AMENDMENTS TO PLANNED OEUELOPMEHT PROUISIONS
Our NPO convened with NPO #3, 5 & 6 to hear presentations from District
Board Member Pat Biggs and Tigard Planner Dick Bewersdorff.
Board Member Biggs presented a report on proposals to reduce School
District personnel and programs in the face of a $12 million District
budget shortfall.
Planner Bewersdorff presented a proposal to amend the planned develop-
ment ordinance.
Members observed the proposal to allow planned development in all resi-
dential areas (established and developing):
1 ) contradicts the Comprehensive Plan's findings and policy on estab-
lished residential areas;
MAR — IS - 9S T H U 10 : 34 4 RPA C P - 02
2) frustrates the Plans intent to protect the character of isting
neighborhoods; and
3) ignores Plan Policy. 6.3.1 which requires that any new development
Cor re-development) in established residential areas will be of the
same type and density in order to protect the character of existing
neighborhoods.
Members did not find any benefit in nixing uses in established resi-
dential areas; and disagreed with the premise that any planned develop-
ment Cor re-development) provision could assure that mixed uses would
be compatible with existing neighborhoods.
Motion: Cal Uoolery; to recommend approval of the amendments, but only
allow planned development in developing areas and continue to prohibit
any planned development in established residential areas.
