(Comments are due by Monday at noon) Trapping and killing beaver in Derry Dell Creek Comments I live near Woodard Park and the Derry Dell Creek restoration area. I just learned that the public works department is trapping and killing beaver in our area. I am so disappointed to learn this sad news!The Derry Dell Creek area is the most socially robust area in our neighborhood. I walk there daily to look for beaver and enjoy the complex ecosystem's inhabitants—frogs,fish,birds,otters, muskrats,and I'm still hoping to see mink.While there I meet new neighbors every day, and I've lived here for 10 years! Parents bring their children, hoping to catch site of a beaver.When these children grow up and ask,where are the beaver?Are we going to say that the city of Tigard killed them all? Having a complex wetland habitat is beneficial in so many ways. It is a wildfire break;the surrounding area holds and retains water that filters into the groundwater table,cleaned of any residual pollution, but also providing safety from fire. It supports a vast,complex ecosystem of wildlife; pollinators, animals and birds. It is soothing and refreshing personally to visit this incredible space. Please seek out other solutions to any beaver related issues and protect these amazing animals.Clean Water Services is a good resource.This issue is extremely important to me and I'm sure to many of my neighbors.

(Comments are due by Monday at noon) Safe parking program at Christ the King Lutheran Church Comments Dear City Council Elected Officials,We recently became aware of the proposed Safe Parking Program that Christ the King Lutheran Church and Just Compassion EWC plan to host at the bottom of our Bull Mountain Neighborhood.This parking lot currently hosts a preschool with 30 children on site daily,9am-12 through the end of May. In addition, a variety of neighbors live within feet of this parking lot, or even share a fence line with the proposed location.We do not dispute the merits of this program, but absolutely implore the city to restrict funding and consider criteria for locations near schools and homes.We cannot take the risk of our children and families being exposed to dangerous activity,such as the incident that took place near the Just Compassion shelter in Beaverton near the library recently.We implore city officials to take the safety and security of their constituents seriously as they act in support of these programs.We have the following asks of the city: • Create an Open House Online Forum for us to continue to share our voices-we have not been able to fully participate to date • Explore using public property farther away from homes and schools to host Safe Parking projects in Tigard • Ensure any funding provided by the city be met with location criteria to limit these projects to locate within a reasonable distance of schools(including daycares and preschools) and homes •All funding decisions for this project should be put to a city council vote-we want our elected officials to remain transparent and accountable as they work on behalf of their constituents• Ensure the permitting process for projects like this are public and available-we want to know the criteria and also be made aware when a permit has been approved by the city-post this information publicly for all to access Attachment Supporting Documents/Images Thank you, City of Tigard 1 Carol Krager From: City of Tigard, OR <webteam@tigard-or.gov> Sent: Saturday, February 3, 2024 5:30 PM To: Carol Krager;Jesse Raymundo;Webteam Subject: *NEW SUBMISSION* City Council Public Comment Form City Council Public Comment Form Submission#: 2979160 IP Address: 98.246.185.144 Submission Date: 02/03/2024 5:30 Survey Time: 11 minutes, 52 seconds You have a new online form submission.

(Comments are due by Monday at noon) Re:Just Compassion Safe Parking Program in consideration at Christ the King Church Dear council members and citizens, My name is Rebekah Morgan.As a resident of the neighboring city of Tualatin and as someone who has personally experienced houselessness, I can attest to the transformative power of community support programs.Just over a year ago, my family and I were confronted with the reality of not having a home. It was through unwavering determination and crucial local support that we transitioned from instability to finding a place to call home. Now, as a registered home daycare operator, I nurture the growth and well-being of our children,our community's future. My role as a proactive volunteer with the Community Emergency Response Team has prepared me to provide support in times of need.Additionally, my involvement in Tualatin's Inclusion, Diversity, Equity,and Accessibility committee has deepened my commitment to creating a community where every individual has the chance to thrive, regardless of their circumstances. My advocacy,driven by lived experience, compels me to support initiatives like the Safe Parking Program.This program is a vital step towards achieving long-term stability and self-sufficiency for those it assists. It represents the compassion and resourcefulness of a community that values every member. Such initiatives are crucial;empowering individuals to regain control over their lives. Having attended the in-person meeting and the subsequent Zoom meeting, I've listened intently to the passionate questions and concerns of the Bull Mountain community. I am convinced that there is a deep-seated compassion among its residents. Now,we face the challenge of channeling this compassion into trust in the effectiveness of programs like these to bring about real and positive change.When we support our neighbors during their most challenging times,we don't just assist them;we reinforce the strength and resilience of our entire community. Comments I am writing to voice my unwavering support for the collaborative efforts between the City of Tigard,Just Compassion, and Christ The King Lutheran Church. I urge you to acknowledge the significant impact that such programs have on individuals and families working to overcome the challenges of houselessness. In supporting this program,we offer not only a practical solution but also 1 convey a powerful message of unity and care,which are the hallmarks of a compassionate community.Thank you for your commitment to tackling the pressing issues of houselessness and the lack of affordable housing. I stand firm in my belief in a housing-first approach,where access to adequate shelter is a fundamental right, not conditional on sobriety or employment status. The path to stable housing is complex,often necessitating the support of case managers and housing navigators. In my situation, financial hardship was compounded by a lack of family support due to illness and loss.The prolonged wait for a shelter that could accommodate us,which lasted five weeks,was excruciating.The Safe Parking Program participants,who are required to pass a criminal background check and are thoroughly vetted, are individuals like I once was—without a home.They are not the same as the individuals in troubled downtown encampments who may require more intensive support. Many participants in the Safe Parking Program are working individuals who simply need a safe place to be. It is a misconception to liken the Safe Parking Program to the highly visible encampments that have become problematic in other areas.This program caters to those who,with a bit of assistance, can reclaim their independence.We must recognize that support is the foundation for progress—no one conquers their struggles in isolation.

It is a misconception to liken the Safe Parking Program to the highly visible encampments that have become problematic in other areas. This program caters to those who, with a bit of assistance, can reclaim their independence. We must recognize that support is the foundation for progress—no one conquers their struggles in isolation.

(Comments are due by Monday at noon) Just Compassion Safe Parking Program Comments I am writing to express my wholehearted support for the Just Compassion Safe Parking Program proposed to be considered at Christ the King Church parking lot. Homelessness is a complex issue that affects individuals and families within our community,and it is heartening to see initiatives like the Safe Parking Program that aim to provide practical and compassionate solutions.Christ the King Church's commitment to hosting this program aligns with our shared values of empathy, kindness, and support for those who are experiencing difficult times.The Just Compassion Safe Parking Program not only offers a secure and stable environment for individuals living in their vehicles but also provides access to essential resources such as hygiene facilities,social services, and connections to local support networks. By allowing Christ the King Church to be a host site for this program,we are taking a positive step towards addressing the immediate needs of our neighbors who find themselves without stable housing. Moreover,the program aligns with Tigard's commitment to fostering a sense of community and inclusivity. It demonstrates that we are a compassionate and understanding city that cares about the well-being of all its residents. By supporting initiatives like the Safe Parking Program,we reinforce the values that make Tigard a welcoming and supportive place for everyone. I urge you to consider the positive impact that the Just Compassion Safe Parking Program can have on the lives of those experiencing homelessness in our community. By approving this program at Christ the King Church,we not only provide practical assistance but also contribute to the creation of a more compassionate and supportive Tigard for all.Thank you for your time and consideration. I trust that our community leaders will make decisions that reflect the compassion and inclusivity that Tigard stands for.Sincerely, Nicole Pillatsch Attachment Supporting Documents/Images 1 Carol Krager From: City of Tigard, OR <webteam@tigard-or.gov> Sent: Sunday, February 4, 2024 12:19 PM To: Carol Krager;Jesse Raymundo; Webteam Subject: *NEW SUBMISSION* City Council Public Comment Form City Council Public Comment Form Submission#: 2979808 IP Address: 50.38.59.253 Submission Date: 02/04/2024 12:19 Survey Time: 11 minutes, 10 seconds You have a new online form submission.

Portland, Oregon is definitely on the list. I have spent time in the crisis response field and have directly worked with the houseless population, so I do have compassion and understanding of this complex problem. However, I am also a homeowner in the Bull Mountain area, and I do not want my home in Tigard to become unsafe. I moved out of the city of Portland to Tigard because of the homeless problem, drug problem, and crime problems affecting my life. I understand this program is only for a small amount of car campers that would have to complete an application and follow program rules. The community needs to know how successful your other Safe Parking Program sites have been?Why are the locations not disclosed so informed and concerned community members can check out the sites? It leaves the community thinking that these sites have been overcome with too many car campers not following the rules and sites completely trashed. I don't want it to happen here, in my backyard. I paid an astronomical amount of money to pick a home in the Bull Mountain area, a community where I feel safe. The threat of changing that is alarming. I have been following the meetings about this project and homeowners' safety concerns have not been satisfactorily addressed. Car campers of the program "policing themselves" is not going to work. If additional car campers, not approved by the program,join the area, what happens?Tigard Police has stated they are unable to force car campers to move unless a crime is committed. With the decriminalization of many drug offences, do you see how this is the start of a lawless free-for-all zone? I do. Houselessness is a complex problem and I have compassion for those in tough situations. I do have to think of myself and my family, and I plead for city officials to take the safety and security of their constituents seriously. There are so many community members, including myself, who have not been able to get into the meetings to share their concerns and have their voices heard. I have the following asks: • Please investigate utilizing public property farther away from the Bull Mountain community and adding criteria to limit Safe Parking Projects to a location away from schools, daycares, and residential homes. • Ensure the permitting process for these types of projects are public and readily available. • Ensure there are consequences if participants or program managers do not follow rules. • Please put all funding decisions for this project (and those similar)to a city council vote so our elected officials can remain transparent and accountable as they work on behalf of their constituents.

Name Anne Stewart Email Complete Address 15067 SW Summerview Dr Tigard Tigard,OR 97224 Which agenda item or topic are you commenting on?(Comments are due by Monday at noon) Concerns and Suggestions Regarding Proposed Safe Parking Program Dear City Council Elected Officials, I trust this letter finds you in good health.With over two decades of experience as a local Realtor, I have keenly observed the development of our neighborhoods and navigated the challenges that accompany growth and transformation. Recently, I learned about the proposed Safe Parking Program slated for implementation by Christ the King Lutheran Church and Just Compassion EWC at the base of our Bull Mountain Neighborhood.While I acknowledge the commendable intentions driving such initiatives, I feel compelled to articulate the concerns resonating within our community. In situations where outreach programs, like the proposed Safe Parking Program,are established near schools and neighborhoods without sufficient checks and balances,the resulting repercussions echo within the community, detrimentally affecting those with property and families to safeguard. It is imperative to emphasize the necessity of implementing safeguards to avert unintended consequences.Absent robust measures,the burden disproportionately falls on community members, compromising their ability to uphold a safe and secure environment for their families. It is our shared responsibility to ensure that initiatives addressing societal challenges are executed with prudence, recognizing and mitigating potential impacts on residents and property owners.The proposed location,which currently accommodates a preschool with 30 children on-site daily, poses a distinctive set of challenges. Numerous neighbors,some sharing a fence line with the designated area, harbor genuine concerns about potential risks Comments While I acknowledge the significance of programs like the Safe Parking initiative, I strongly urge the city to exercise caution in selecting locations, particularly those in close proximity to schools and homes. Our children and families should not be exposed to potential dangers, as evidenced by recent incidents near analogous facilities in Beaverton. In light of these concerns, I propose the following recommendations to the city: Facilitate an Open House Online Forum,offering residents a platform to voice their concerns and opinions.Currently,the community has not had a sufficient opportunity to participate fully. Explore alternative locations, preferably public property situated farther away from residential areas and schools,for hosting Safe Parking projects in Tigard. 1 Establish clear criteria for the allocation of city funding, ensuring that such projects are confined to a reasonable distance from schools,daycares,and preschools.Advocate for a city council vote on all funding decisions related to this project to maintain transparency and accountability in the decision-making process. Make the permitting process for projects of this nature accessible to the public, providing clear criteria for approval.Additionally,ensure that information regarding approved permits is publicly posted for easy access. I appreciate your unwavering dedication to the well-being of our community and trust that you will consider these recommendations to effectively address the concerns of Bull Mountain residents.Together,we can collaborate towards establishing a safer and more harmonious environment for all.Thank you for your time and commitment to serving our community.Sincerely, Anne Stewart Attachment Supporting Documents/Images Thank you, City of Tigard This is an automated message generated by Granicus.Please do not reply directly to this email. 2 Carol Krager From: City of Tigard, OR <webteam@tigard-or.gov> Sent: Sunday, February 4, 2024 12:53 PM To: Carol Krager;Jesse Raymundo; Webteam Subject: *NEW SUBMISSION* City Council Public Comment Form City Council Public Comment Form Submission#: 2979851 IP Address: 73.25.238.210 Submission Date: 02/04/2024 12:52 Survey Time: 9 minutes,53 seconds You have a new online form submission.

(Comments are due by Monday at noon) Support for the Just Compassion Safe Parking Program at Christ the King Lutheran Church Comments I am writing in support of the Safe Parking Program being explored by Pastor Dorothy Cunningham and staff at Christ the King Lutheran Church, 11305 SW Bull Mountain Road,Tigard, OR 97224.The program is administered by Just Compassion of East Washington County under the direction of Dr.Vernon Baker. I am in favor of this program because I want to live in a community where houseless people are seen and heard, not viewed degradingly as only drug addicts,criminals,vagrants, or as threats of potential violence. Participants in the Safe Parking Program are currently on the path to getting permanent housing, but they just happen to be living in their cars at the moment. Being accepted into the program requires a background check, a case management plan,and a personal commitment to a Conduct Agreement.Any infraction would mean immediate ejection from the program.There will be three vehicles-cars only, no RVs,trailers or campers-that will park in one designated parking space on church property for up to 90 days.All vehicles must be currently registered,insured,and operational.There will also be sanitary facilities on church property in the form of a port-a-potty and handwashing station.A shared storage pod will be available to protect belongings. Host site managers and Safe Parking Coordinators will provide supervision and support.A large number of houseless people who live in their cars actually have jobs and every human being is entitled to food, clothing, and a clean, dry and warm place to rest and sleep. I want my community to provide aid and resources to people without homes. Providing a safe and legal parking place for people living in their cars is a step in the right direction. I would also like to see more funding for shelter space,transitional housing and meals for those struggling. I hope the City of Tigard can work with Just Compassion and Christ the King Lutheran Church to remind our houseless friends they are valued, heard, and seen.

(Comments are due by Monday at noon) In support of Safe Parking in Tigard Comments I have worked at Just Compassion since 2020 and have served as the Street Outreach Coordinator since 2022. I attended both informational meetings to listen and learn from the perspectives of everyone.While there was much disagreement, I was impressed by the level of community engagement. I hear the community's concerns about safety,security and the fear of more people experiencing similar circumstances congregating around the location.What stood out to me the most, however,was the contention that establishing a program centered on individuals living in their vehicles is unjust. I have visited every shelter, resource center, pod village,and safe parking location in Washington County,as well as worked with hundreds of people who have lived in these settings. Part of my job is to locate people living on the street, identify their barriers and support them in transition into a shelter that meets their needs. But everyone's needs for shelter are different,and some people struggle to remain in shelter due to difficulties including lack of personal space, limited storage and inadequate accommodations for their disabilities.This requires a diverse range of shelter settings,including options for those who feel their needs are better met in their car. It is crucial to get people into shelter as housing someone requires a lot of time and effort. Case managers require a dependable location for locating and contacting those they assist. It's also beneficial for people experiencing homelessness to have a safe and consistent place where they can sleep, use the bathroom,and safely store their belongings so that they can focus on the work of overcoming their barriers and transitioning into housing.The people who are accepted into safe parking are people who are ready and eager to put in the work required to overcome homelessness. I ask the community to recognize the diverse need for shelter and extend their trust into the proven track record of the safe parking program.

(Comments are due by Monday at noon) Comments I do not dispute the merits of the Safe Parking Homeless Program, but I absolutely oppose placing it adjacent to children in preschool, retirement communities&family homes.Another location must be considered. I am a retired registered nurse who has cared for the homeless&mentally ill patients. I can attest to their mental, behavioral,&physical needs. Most have unpredictable behaviors which can escalate to violence,as seen in many homeless encampments, an example of this type of behavior can be found in the city of Portland on any given night. Due to my garage being broken into multiple times,the increasing number of homeless, crime,and drug use along HGW 99& Royalty Parkway, I have sold my retirement condo in King City at a huge loss. I just moved to the Bull Mountain area for safety only to find out there is a planned encampment coming next me. Certainly city hall has room for monitoring the behaviors of 2 to 3 over night campers. I urge you to... • Please investigate utilizing public property farther away from the Bull Mountain community and adding criteria to limit Safe Parking Projects to a location away from schools, daycares, churches, libraries, residential homes and retirement communities. • Ensure the permitting process for these types of projects are public and readily available. • Ensure there are consequences if participants or program managers do not follow rules.• Please put all funding decisions for this project(and those similar)to a city council vote so our elected officials can remain transparent and accountable as they work on behalf of their constituents.

(Comments are due by Monday at noon) D;Just compassion at Christ the King Comments I did read and have submitted to Tigard City council. Item three below points out that safe parking locations are not disclosed.This is not true.Your proposed site is very publicly disclosed.The sanitation and washing stations being locked or unlocked mean very little when you have additional people arriving.The issue in Beaverton with this group has been brought to the attention of the city council:The concerns of the St Cecilia parents went unanswered by Just Compassion to the point that there was harassment, intimidation,open drug use and violence and the students were exposed. I don't want this for any young person whether I know them or not.What makes us think they would be more responsive in Tigard than they have been in Beaverton ??And again who is enforcing the rules 24/7 which is necessary:Who will enforce security,drug usage,3 cars limits, only night camping,cleaning, safety,etc!!! Nobody. Neighborhood have to deal with the consequences. Please consider others-we have no issue with the program just it's organization, oversight, and location.Suzan Sent from my iPhone On Feb 2, 2024, at 9:28 AM, Pastor Dorothy Cottingham<pastordorothy@tigardlutherans.com>wrote: We are well aware of that.

I wholeheartedly support and appreciate the proposed agreement between the City of Tigard,Just Compassion and Christ the King Lutheran Church to provide safe& legal parking for individuals living out of their vehicles.Considering the screening process,conduct agreement,designated parking location with manageable number of spots,case management,storage facilities and sanitary facilities,this proposed community support is exactly what our houseless neighbors need.Thank you City of Tigard,Just Compassion and Christ the King Lutheran Church for working towards strengthening ALL members of our community.

(Comments are due by Monday at noon) The Safe parking program with Just Compassion Comments I very much support this program and applaud the Church and Pastor Dorothy's efforts to provide a safe and sanitary place to a handful of people experiencing houselessness.Without programs like this,these vulnerable humans would otherwise would be fearful of being woken up and harassed by people or being asked to move while living in their cars. Many of these individuals are new to having no housing and many are families who have children or seniors. I am appalled at the disrespectful and dehumanizing comments made by the opposition on the numerous Facebook posts,direct emails to neighbors,and even in emails to local businesses who are in the community groups. Please allow the church to have a permit as these people are already parking in Tigard but without safety and support, and without bathroom access.

It sounds like a great program for those in need but I worry that there is no actual 24/7 patrolling to keep crime away from the empty parking lot&amenities (restroom, wash station,storage).There is not enough security to prevent those who are NOT in the program from loitering. My son's day care is right behind the churches and our home is less then a quarter mile away, please do not open a pathway from crime in a heavily residential neighborhood.There must be a more suitable location for this amazing program.

(Comments are due by Monday at noon) Firework use in the City of Tigard Comments Mayor and City Council, I am writing you regarding firework use in the City of Tigard.The tradition of setting off fireworks on the 4 of July began in Philadelphia on July 4, 1777,during the first organized celebration of Independence Day. ("History of the Fourth ofJuly -Brief History, Early Celebrations and Traditions." HISTORY, 16 Dec. 2009,www.history.com/topics/holidays/july-4th.)You are forgetting the sparkle of joy and fun kids and adults have watching fireworks go off in a safe and legal manner to celebrate the founding of the United States. In your discussions, I am appalled that city councilors were not even aware of what types of fireworks are sold at the stores/stands. In a previous city council meeting the question was asked if illegal fireworks were sold at those stands.This is embarrassing that prior research was not done.The issue is not the legal fireworks that people buy at the stores and stands that support business and organizations in our community.The issue is people using illegal fireworks and there is no consequence for their use. I would urge strongly the city council to do research before even spending time on issues like this. I fully understand that the Tigard Police and TVF&R can't be everywhere at once but there should be enforcement which doesn't seem that has happened in previous years. Please make the change by removing the ban on legal fireworks during red flag warnings because that is confusing for Tigard citizens and let people make the decisions if it is safe to set off fireworks. I also encourage you to table the discussion about banning the sale of legal fireworks and enforce the current laws prohibiting the use of illegal fireworks.

Medical calls.Of those calls only 4 times was PD there because they can put calls on pending.This is not good for our neighborhood. Put this at city hall in the parking lot. It's a night project,city hall parking lot is empty at night and it's close to the services they need. It's also a safe place right next to police station. Don't put this in our neighborhood close to the schools and our kids. Attachment Supporting Documents/Images Thank you, City of Tigard This is an automated message generated by Granicus.

(Comments are due by Monday at noon) Christ the King Lutheran Church Houseless Vehicle Proposal Comments I am writing today to express my concerns for the proposal to allow houseless vehicles at the church off 114th and Bull Mountain. I live 1/4 mile from the proposed site and have 3 elementary aged children. I love my neighborhood, my neighbors and have deep compassion for those that are less fortunate than myself.While I recognize the need for this program, I do not feel that the proposed location would provide the best service to either the houseless individuals and/or the families in the community.With no drug testing required, allowing participants to qualify with a "non-recent" history of sexual and violent crimes, limited supervision, no services within the immediate area,yet surrounded by residential living(i.e.children everywhere)and a close proximity to several schools,this does not seem like the right location for this project!!As a side not,Just Compassion has stated many times that they do not disclose the location of their parking spots,yet at this point everyone is aware of this location! I would plead for you to consider alternate locations for these types of projects and that any permits for these types of requests require a public/on the record vote!Thank you for taking the time to read my comments.

(Comments are due by Monday at noon) Safe Lots Comments On August 23,2022,a presentation was presented to the previous city council.The safe space survey was sent out to the city of Tigard email list on 7/13/22 with an expiration/survey-close date of 7/31/22.The city only received 125 responses, however, all the concerns we hear today were expressed in those responses.City residents expressed a desire to not place safe lots near schools and had concerns about the impact on surrounding neighborhoods.We have attended virtually,or in person,many of these meetings in the past two years, provided oral and written comments, and even virtually attended a community engagement meeting where there was no discussion of further outreach to the community.Additionally,we spoke to the mayor and the program manager for strategic initiatives about our concerns on how residents would react without any input into location-the city knew the concerns of residents. 1.We are not debating the merits of the program,and while we have concerns about the success data on the three total years of this program running, our broader concern is safety. 2.The project's proximity to schools and homes is a safety issue, citing recent events and reports from first responders who have serviced the Beaverton safe lots and surrounding neighborhoods.3.We want to see the taxpayer-dollar funding put to a council vote so the constituents have transparency to understand who supports this program and the locations for its implementation.4.City residents do not feel that they have been adequately consulted and based on the 125 responses with only 18 days of outreach-they are right. Please provide a longer online open house forum to receive and post feedback for ongoing discourse before moving forward with approval considering the safety concerns.We look forward to our elected officials adequately addressing the concerns expressed by the community since July 31, 2022.

(Comments are due by Monday at noon) Support for Safe Parking Program Comments I completely support the implementation of a Safe Parking Program at Christ the King Lutheran Church down the street from my home on Bull Mountain. From what I've read,the applicants are vetted,there is a code of conduct,and they're committing to following a path towards having housing. I fail to see how 3 functioning cars at a time in a church parking lot will meaningfully contribute to crime in our neighborhood.We can't keep kicking the can down the road while at the same time complaining about the unhoused population. I support us being a part of the solution. If it doesn't work,we can't say we didn't try. But if it does,which I believe it will for the majority of participants,we can proudly say that we were part of the solution. Attachment Supporting Documents/Images Thank you, City of Tigard ��- This is an automated message generated by Granicus.Please do not reply directly to this email 1 Dear City Council Elected Officials, We have lived in Tigard on Bull Mtn in the same house for 21 years and raised our two sons here. Our property taxes for this year were $9,675. We love our community and have been actively involved in it. Our entire family has spent thousands of hours giving back to this community volunteering in schools, boy scout community projects, Tigard sports coaching, Youth Peer Court student volunteers, Tigard Safety Town student and parent volunteers, Meals on Wheels meal prep volunteers, Good Neighbor Ctr student volunteers and donations, and servers/greeters St. Anthony Community Café. We recently became aware of the proposed Safe Parking Program. This parking lot currently hosts a preschool with 30 children on site daily, 9am-12 through the end of May. In addition, a variety of neighbors live within feet of this parking lot, or even share a fence line with the proposed location. In addition to this preschool there is another preschool located at St James Episcopal Church which is 69 ft away from the proposed site. 420 ft directly across the street from the proposed site at the apartments there is the bus stop for elementary pick up approximately 8-10 kids daily wait for their bus and are dropped off. This is frightening to us that this site would be considered because it's so close to so many young children that are vulnerable to any type of interaction with individuals and their guests parking at this site with no security monitoring. We do not dispute the merits of this program, but absolutely implore the city to restrict funding and consider criteria for locations near schools and homes. We cannot take the risk of our children and families being exposed to dangerous activity. We implore city officials to take the safety and security of their constituents seriously as they act in support of these programs. Also the nature of Just Compassion EWC plan is the sites are to remain undisclosed. With two banners located at 114th/Gaarde entrances advertising the church as a potential site, 3 news organizations broadcasting this proposal, Next Door neighbor and Facebook ongoing discussions, and 250+ plus neighbors attending the first discussion mtg (majority opposed to this site) this site can no longer be considered undisclosed and will jeopardize the safety of clients in the program. We have the following asks of the city: • Create an Open House Online Forum for us to continue to share our voices-we have not been able to fully participate to date • Explore using public property farther away from homes and schools to host Safe Parking projects in Tigard • Ensure any funding provided by the city be met with location criteria to limit these projects to locate within a reasonable distance of schools (including daycares and preschools) and homes.

Attachment Supporting Documents/Images Letter to Tigard City Council.pdf Thank you, City of Tigard This is an automated message generated by Granicus.Please do not reply directly to this email. 1 Dear City Council Elected Off cials, We recently became aware of the proposed Safe Parking Program that Christ the King Lutheran Church and Just Compassion EWC plan to host at the bottom of the Bull Mountain Neighborhood. My family and I bought a house in the neighborhood last year, selling our home of 9 years in SE Portland to move to Tigard. The church currently hosts a preschool with 30 children on site daily, and homeless individuals have already been camping in the parking lot and courtyard of the church with seemingly little pressure for them to move. Two other elementary schools are less than a mile away. We have three children and our youngest is 9 and has Down syndrome We found out about the proposed Safe Parking Program at Christ the King Lutheran Church, not through the City of Tigard, Just Compassion EWC, or Christ the King Lutheran Church but rather through a concerned neighbor knocking on our door the week before the informational meeting last Tuesday at Christ the King. We were shocked and saddened by this news. Again, none of the parties, to my knowledge, who have been working on this pilot program for the last year took any initiative to make us aware. After being made aware I reached out to the Mayor, all the elected City Council members, and both Christy and Vernon at Just Compassion to share our deep concerns. My family and I are the closest neighbors to the church. We share a property line with the church and a simple chain link fence is all that separates my backyard and the proposed site of the homeless camp. I call it a homeless camp because even though it is called a 'safe parking program', it is fundamentally a camp. The reality is that individuals who are without a home will be encouraged and empowered to camp out in this parking lot for months on end with no oversight or accountability. We were told at the mtg last Tuesday that there will be no monitoring overnight and that the individuals will `police themselves.' Again this is a homeless camp, albeit a supposed small camp. When I go car camping with my family we drive to a campground which has a porta potty or outhouse, we set up shop for the night, and we camp. We don't call it car parking, we call it car camping. We are not disputing the merits of this program, but sincererely implore the city to restrict funding and to consider the criteria for locations near schools and homes. We cannot take the risk of our children and families being exposed to dangerous activity, such as what sadly took place near the Just Compassion shelter in Beaverton last week. We call on the city off cials to take the safety and security of their constituents seriously as they act in support of these programs. I spoke with Mayor Lueb at last Tuesday's info meeting at the church and am grateful she attended and took time to hear my.concerns. I hope the City will continue to listen and hear the growing concerns of your constituents. We have the following asks of the city: • Create an Open House Online Forum for us to continue to share our voices- we have not been able to fully participate to date • Explore using public property farther away from homes and schools to host Safe Parking projects in Tigard • Ensure any funding provided by the city be met with location criteria to limit these projects to locate within a reasonable distance of schools (including daycares and preschools) and homes • All funding decisions for this project should be put to a city council vote- we want our elected off cials to remain transparent and accountable as they work on behalf of their constituents • Ensure the permitting process for projects like this are public and available- we want to know the criteria and also be made aware when a permit has been approved by the city- post this information publicly for all to access Thank you for taking the time to hear us.

Comments I recently became aware of the proposed Safe Parking Program located behind Christ the King church. Because the program is new and has not been sanctioned by federal funders, little is known about how the programs operate and their impacts.This community is resistant to the proposed location and it is our hope that the city of abandon this proposed lot. I attended the Tuesday open meeting at the church and it was overwhelmingly apparent,this is not a welcome location.Tigard Mayor Heidi Lueb attempted to insult the community today by gaslighting valid concerns raised by residents.We residents are not opposed to the service, but not in a residential area where there are families, seniors and other tax paying citizens that are affected by this proposal,and not in a good way.

It has been argued that this program will increase violence in our neighborhoods and pose a threat to surrounding schools.While this is of course possible,these arguments are not considering the large houses population Tigard already has.There are many houseless families in TTSD that deserve access to safe programs like these.When it is argued that this is a great program it just"shouldn't go here"citizens of Tigard demonstrate their lack of care for our entire Tigard community.

Attachment Supporting Documents/Images Written Testimony.pdf Thank you, City of Tigard This is an automated message generated by Granicus.Please do not reply directly to this email. 1 Dear City Council Elected Officials„ I am writing to express my deep concerns and opposition regarding the proposed program by Christ the King Church, which intends to allow individuals experiencing homelessness to use their parking lot as a place to park and stay in their vehicles overnight. This parking lot is not only adjacent to a preschool attended by our young children, but is also situated in close proximity to residential homes where families have built their lives, expecting safety, security, and tranquility. While I understand and sympathize with the need to provide support and resources to our homeless population, the proposed program, in its current form, lacks the comprehensive approach necessary for it to be safe, effective, and beneficial to all parties involved. Research and best practices in addressing homelessness advocate for holistic solutions that go beyond providing a parking space. These solutions include access to rehabilitation services, mental health support, and pathways to permanent housing. Without these critical components, we risk exacerbating the problem rather than alleviating it. The absence of checks for drug use or criminal activity within the program's framework raises significant safety concerns, particularly in an environment frequented by children. The potential for unintentional exposure to dangerous behaviors or substances is not a risk that our community can afford to take. The safety of our children and the security of our neighborhoods must be a paramount consideration in any program the city decides to support. Moreover, without a holistic approach to tackle the underlying issues of homelessness, this program risks merely superficially addressing the problem, potentially resulting in a surge of challenges for our city. The program's absence of rehabilitative and mental health services not only diminishes its effectiveness but also inadvertently invites a proliferation of issues associated with homelessness increased criminal activity, drug use, and litter—directly into our community. Mayor Leub's acknowledgment of the city and police's limited capacity to manage an overflow of vehicles into residential areas further exacerbates these concerns. Under the current legal framework, our community is left vulnerable to these negative impacts, which could significantly alter the fabric of our neighborhood and quality of life for its residents. Therefore, I urge the City Council to consider the following actions: • Host an Open House Online Forum to allow for broader community engagement and discussion on the proposed program and its implications for our neighborhood. • Identify Alternative Locations that are not in close proximity to schools, preschools, and residential areas. Public properties that are removed from these sensitive areas should be prioritized for hosting Safe Parking projects. • Implement Strict Location Criteria for city-funded programs, ensuring that they are situated at a reasonable distance from educational institutions and homes. • Ensure that all funding decisions for this initiative are determined through a City Council vote. It is imperative that our elected representatives uphold a standard of transparency and accountability when allocating resources for homelessness initiatives. • Publicize the Permitting Process, making it accessible and transparent, so that community members are informed and can participate in decisions that affect their safety and well-being. In conclusion, while I support efforts to assist those in need, it is crucial that these efforts do not compromise the safety and security of our children and communities. I strongly urge the City Council to reconsider the approval of the proposed Safe Parking Program at Christ the King Church, and to work towards solutions that are comprehensive, safe, and respectful of all community members. Thank you for considering my concerns and for your dedication to the welfare of our city's residents. I trust that the City Council will act with the utmost consideration for the well-being and concerns of its constituents.

I myself am a new mom with a 6 month old,and am incredibly concerned about the proximity of this program so close to our homes and children.While I'm sure this program has its merits, I implore the city to restrict funding and consider criteria for locations near schools and homes. I understand there will be no security and participants of this program are supposed to self monitor. Unless security can be provided and the program can guarantee the safety of our neighborhood, our homes and its residents, I urge the city officials to consider alternative locations for this program.

Comments Concerns are:1)That the neighborhood impacted be properly notified well in advance that a proposal like this in pending.2)That the neighborhood impacted has the opportunity to have input in such decisions.3)That homeless encampments like this are not situated in neighborhoods where people live their lives.Where children go to school.Where we are not looking over our shoulders all the time.4)Areas like this are prone to get out of control with drug use, unwanted additional homeless people that may feel the freedom to join an encampment etc, unkept areas We have watched what has happened in Beaverton and downtown Portland and this is not something we want to set precedence in our neighborhood and in the city of Tigard.While we feel compassion for those that are homeless,this is not the way to accomplish a solution. It is better to figure out the correct place to establish these camps,away from neighborhoods and areas where families live. 5)With all the new construction on Bull Mountain we have noticed first hand over the last few years where more and more homeless people are parking overnight in these areas as well. If we give them "approval"to do this it will only balloon way out of proportion.Thank you.

Tigard,Oregon 97223 Which agenda item or topic are you commenting on? (Comments are due by Monday at noon) In support of the Just Compassion Parking Project Comments I am writing in to voice my support for the Just Compassion Parking Project to open 3-5 parking spots at the proposed church location on Bull Mountain in Tigard.There have been many heated debates on social media and although I was unable to make it to the in-person informational meeting, I heard it was not an example of the kind,compassionate community I know Tigard to be. Many of the fears I am hearing are valid, but so are the protocols and safety measures Just Compassion has in place to keep everyone safe. People are worried about a sudden rush of cars and campers parked along streets in Tigard, drug use and crime. But all those things are already here. None of those things are new problems for Tigard,or Portland,or Oregon for that matter. Events of the last few years have made houselessness,and many other issues, bigger. Political divide has made people louder and more stubborn in their views. Social media spreads fear and misinformation at a terrifying rate.Just Compassion isn't new to offering help towards a solution,they are trying to help more because there are more people needing help.Will these 3-5 safe parking spots fix the issue?Of course not. Is there a potential for problems?Always. Does that mean we should offer no help and hope the issue goes away? Experience shows us that is not the answer. Our community members are in desperate need of help.We need to set our fears aside while still staying vigilant,step up and do our best to help. If helping means you setup a neighborhood watch because you live near this location and are afraid of this program bringing additional drugs or crime,then help in that way. If helping means you volunteer with the Just Compassion project or make an effort to get to know your community members who are struggling,then help in that way. But choosing not to help won't fix anything.

In Beaverton, a terrible incident took place near"Just Compassion"shelter as that location near the library was a poor choice.While we applaud the attempts to help the less fortune in our area, enabling them to continue to choose unhealthy life styles and unhealthy coping by living in cars for mobility is not a good fit for our community.The senior community of King City Civic Association of hard working and retired elders is right across Bull Mountain Road and in the last five years of living here,we have had several problems with homeless encampments, crime and vandalism that stem from the homeless population and easy access to Hwy 99. We are working with the local police to deter these crimes but inviting unsavory folks near here just seems the wrong choice.

Business Meeting Meeting Date: 02/06/2024 Length(in minutes): Consent Item Agenda Title: Contract Amendment for Red Rock Creek Stabilization and Enhancement Authored By: Toni Riccardi Presented By: Principal Engineer Newbury Item Type: Motion Requested Public Hearing Yes Newspaper Legal Ad Required?: Public Hearing Publication Date in Newspaper: Information EXPLANATION OF ISSUE The purpose of this action is to approve a contract amendment to OTAK,Inc. for the Red Rock Creek Stabilization and Enhancement project. ACTION REQUESTED Staff recommends the Local Contract Review Board approve the contract amendment to OTAK,Inc. for an amount of $427,430 and authorize the City Manager to take the steps necessary to execute the amendment. BACKGROUND INFORMATION The Red Rock Creek Stabilization project will provide stream enhancements and long-term stabilization to Red Rock Creek from just downstream of SW Dartmouth St. upstream to SW 72nd Ave.in the Tigard Triangle. This project is identified as a high priority in the City's 2018 Stormwater System Plan as this section of stream has experienced severe erosion due to runoff from developed areas. This erosion has resulted in stream incision up to 25 feet deep and has caused multiple line breaks to an existing sanitary sewer line that has been exposed. This erosion has also led to excess sediment being deposited near the SW Dartmouth St. crossing leading to localized flooding. Future development in the Tigard Triangle will also add stormwater runoff and contribute to the degradation of the creek. To address the erosion, stream enhancement and stabilization measures will be constructed within the project area. These measures will include:beaver analog dams,woody debris,check dams,imported river rock,and other structural and light grade control measures recommended by the design team. To address the localized flooding at SW Dartmouth St., sediment removal and wetland enhancement and enlargement will be implemented near SW Dartmouth St. to improve stream function. The Local Contract Review board approved a professional services contract with OTAK,Inc. on January 11,2022 to complete the design,permitting,and construction observation for the project. OTAK,Inc. is currently working on the 90%design plans but during the design phase, several out of contract scope items were encountered. Those include: 1. Phase II environmental study. A phase I study was completed and there were contaminants found in the soil which required a more extension Phase II study to be completed. 2. Additional outreach to property owners included exhibits created showing Red Rock Cr.improvements, future Red Rock Cr. trail,and future development scenarios at the former Tigard Cinema site. 3. An additional easement description and exhibit needed for easement acquisition. 4. Land use submittal due to property acquisition. Costco requested the City purchase their property within the greenway which requires a lot line consolidation Type I land use review and plat work. 5. Design scope additions that were determined to be needed after 30%design including public sanitary sewer realignment within the former Tigard Cinema site to avoid impacts with the creek, slip lining Dartmouth Culverts to extend service life,adjustments to storm sewer on SW Atlanta Street,grading for the future Red Rock Cr. trail between Atlanta and 721d,maintenance access for sanitary sewer downstream of Dartmouth, and disposal of non-hazardous contaminated soils. 6. Additional permitting required with Oregon DEQ due to contaminated soil and Clean Water Services due to grading for the future Red Rock Cr. trail. This amendment covers these out of scope items and will allow the consultant to continue with the design,permitting, and construction observation of the project. Project is expected to go out to bid later this spring with construction beginning this summer. It's expected the construction will last 2 years. Dates of Previous Considerations January 11,2022 LCRP approval of the professional services contract.

Business Meeting Meeting Date: 02/06/2024 Length(in minutes): Consent Item Agenda Title: 2024 State and Federal Legislative Agendas Authored By: Nicole Hendrix Presented By: Item Type: Motion Requested Public Hearing No Legal Ad Required?: Publication Date: Information EXPLANATION OF ISSUE Each year, City Council considers its council goals as well as community priorities,issues,and opportunities in developing its state and federal legislative agenda.These are conveyed in agency meetings and used to inform partnerships, support,and opposition of bills,investments,and programs.Legislative agendas highlight city priorities and are one tool to advocate for important initiatives. In addition to the legislative agendas,the city and its partners pursue specific opportunities that align with our values as they arise. The attached agendas provide overarching priority areas along with specific requests the Tigard team will pursue at the state and federal level in the upcoming year. ACTION REQUESTED City Council is asked to affirm Tigard's 2024 State and Federal Legislative Agendas. BACKGROUND INFORMATION Dates of Previous and Potential Future Considerations The legislative agenda drafts were first presented to City Council on January 9,2024. Given the focus of the State legislative short session, Council directed the Tigard team to revise the state agenda to be more focused and include Tigard's stance on Measure 110. At their January 16,2024 Council meeting,City Council provided their position,requesting reform of M110, for inclusion in the state legislative agenda. For the Federal legislative agenda, Council directed the team to add efforts to have Tigard get its own ZIP code and work with CFM Advocates to get additional information around direct flights to Asia from Portland and train travel time through the City. Impacts (Community,Budget,Policies and Plans/Strategic Connection) The state and federal legislative agendas help guide policy and advocacy actions in 2024.The recommended agendas advance key initiatives guided by Tigard's Community Promise, Council Goals, and Strategic Plan values of equitable, walkable,healthy,and accessible. Upon approval,design of the agenda will be finalized and then distributed to key partners,neighboring jurisdictions, and other organizations with shared goals. ALTERNATIVES& RECOMMENDATION The Tigard team recommends City Council affirm the legislative agenda language as presented.Alternatively,City Council could provide direction and feedback on these agendas. ADDITIONAL RESOURCES Attachments 2024 State Legislative Agenda Draft 2024 Federal Legislative Agenda Draft Ti ' W ez. 2024 Tigard State Legislative Agenda Items Transportation and Infrastructure—The City of Tigard supports equitable, accessible, safe, and climate- friendly transportation and infrastructure policy and investments. State of Good Repair and ODOT-owned Urban Arterials.The City seeks funding for State of Good Repair, complete street, and safety improvements on SW Hall Boulevard. ODOT, Washington County, and the City are advancing discussions on the potential transfer of three to four miles of Hall Blvd to the City in favor of improved management and maintenance. ODOT Project Delivery. Increase funding for ODOT project delivery capacity and prioritization of active transportation infrastructure to avoid costly delays to local agencies. Greenhouse Gas Emission State Reduction Targets.Advance efforts to reduce and regulate emissions to meet state reduction goals, including supporting programs such as Climate-Friendly and Equitable Communities, Equitable Oregon Electric Vehicle Rebate incentives including the Charge Ahead incentives, and Climate Protection Program. Use of Proposed Road Pricing Revenue. Revenue generated through road pricing is an important tool to manage congestion and should be used to provide equitable transportation alternatives. Measure 110 Reform.Tigard supports efforts to reform existing language in Measure 110 and will actively respond to new information on this measure as its introduced in the short session. Housing Services—Tigard supports increased funding and legislation for stable, climate-friendly housing, land use and support services. Houselessness Services.Tigard supports funding efforts to respond to immediate health and wellness services for houseless community members, including the operation and maintenance of emergency/temporary shelters, safe spaces, hygiene stations, debris removal, encampment removal programs, and access to information. Affordable Housing Reform.Tigard supports legislation that would provide state funds to cover local system development charges for the development of affordable housing and climate reform. Tenant Protections&Support. Rent assistance programs should be expanded to assure that Oregon's housing crisis does not grow worse. Continued rent cap reform and consideration of utility cost increases should be pursued.The state should establish a right to counsel, expanding access to public defenders for tenants, and a legal aid fund to ensure adherence to tenant protection laws. Our Community Promise, or"5 E's", is the lens through which we approach all initiatives, guiding the Tigard team in all we do. Our 5 E's are:Equity, Environment, Economy, Engagement, and Excellence. In coordination with our partners, Tigard will pursue specific state opportunities that align with our values as they arise. 1 CITY OF� Tia r g 2024 Tigard Federal Legislative Agenda Items Project and Program Specific Funding Requests The City will pursue federal grants and funding opportunities for projects that advance Tigard's vision and values. Hall Blvd Safety Improvements. Hall Boulevard is a state-owned urban arterial that runs through Beaverton, unincorporated Washington County, and the City of Tigard serving numerous residences, businesses, parks, schools, and transit.The failing assets along this corridor and insufficient safety infrastructure have led the City to pursue negotiations with ODOT to transfer the Tigard section of Hall Boulevard to the City so that it can be better managed and maintained in line with our community's vision for a safe, accessible, and functional transportation system. Funding for infrastructure improvements to a state of good repair would facilitate the transfer of this facility to the City. Universal Plaza Phase 2.Tigard requests$2 million to complete Phase 2 of Universal Plaza. Phase 2 includes construction of an ADA-accessible community room and architectural canopy over the plaza's southern edge. It provides weather protection for the farmer's market promenade,food vendors, and performances for community congregation and connection. This Plaza serves a diverse cross-section of the community, providing a gathering place for socially-vulnerable and lower-income residents who live near this site.The location is served by active and public transportation, including the Fanno Creek Regional Trail System, supporting the City's goals around health and walkability. Community Resilience Center.The City of Tigard is requesting$500,000 to transform the Tigard Public Library into a Community Resilience Center for emergency cooling and heating. Currently,there is no designated community warming, cooling, or clean air center in Tigard.As the frequency of extreme weather events increase, it's imperative that Tigard's unhoused and vulnerable residents have a safe, accessible place to seek shelter during extreme weather events. Climate Action Plan.The City plans to request federal funding to develop a Climate Action Plan to develop and prioritize investments and policies to make progress on the City's climate mitigation and adaptation goals.The Climate Action Plan will center equity in the recommended policies, plans, and investments to move the community towards a more resilient future. Neighborhood Access and Equity Grant Program.The City's social vulnerability mapping indicates that some of Tigard's BIPOC, lower-income, and historically underserved communities have limited access to connection and opportunity because of infrastructure configuration and design. State and County roadways, especially Hall Blvd and Greenburg Rd, currently create barriers;with investment in pedestrian infrastructure and safe crossings,the livability,safety, and access along these corridors would be improved. Clean Heavy-Duty Vehicle Program.The City requests support for opportunities to obtain cleaner heavy-duty City fleet vehicles and related charging infrastructure. 1 0 Tigard Transportation and Infrastructure The City of Tigard supports equitable, accessible, safe, and climate—friendly transportation and infrastructure policy and investments. The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act and Inflation Reduction Act were important actions taken in 2022 and 2023—with some program funds ability to go directly to cities,Tigard plans to pursue those opportunities. Resilient Infrastructure. Cities need support to build and invest in sustainable, resilient, and inclusive infrastructure. Backup emergency power generation for water intake and treatment is one example of resilient infrastructure that Tigard is pursuing funding for in partnership with Lake Oswego. Direct investment will help meet the growing demands on our infrastructure to support resilient communities. Southwest Corridor Light Rail.The City is part of a coalition working to extend light rail service from Portland to Tigard.The proposed Light Rail corridor serving Tigard, Beaverton, Portland, and other regional cities, is expected to carry around 40,000 passengers daily and reduce congestion. Electric Mobility Transition.Tigard supports further increased access to electric mobility infrastructure and incentives for electric mobility adoption in low-income households and communities to ensure that the electric mobility transition is equitable. Ensure new funding programs are inclusive of micro-mobility modes, shared mobility, and Mobility as a Service models. Broadband and Digital Access.Support and funding for increased broadband infrastructure deployment and technical assistance is critical to economic development, education, health and safety and the ability of residents to be linked to their governments.The pandemic has only amplified the need for digital access. Affordable Housing.The City supports legislation to remove barriers for local governments to address the housing affordability crisis and federal investments that increase access to, and supply of, affordable housing units. City Funding&Additional Opportunities Restore Advanced Refunding.The City supports refinancing of municipal bonds which was eliminated in the 2017 tax bill. Refinancing bonds lowers the debt service for local governments and is a financing tool that reduces the burden on community members. Restore State and Local Tax Deductions.The City's residents pay an unequitable portion of their income in taxes as a result of upper limit placed on SALT deductions in the 2017 tax bill. Tigard ZIP Code.Tigard supports coordination efforts with the U.S. Postal Service for the City of Tigard to have its own ZIP code. This agenda highlights key city priorities and is one tool to support and advocate for important initiatives. In coordination with our partners, Tigard will pursue specific opportunities that align with our values as they arise. 2 AIS-5407 6. Business Meeting Meeting Date: 02/06/2024 Length(in minutes): 15 Minutes Agenda Title: Consider the Approval of an IGA between City of Tigard and Metro to accept the Steve Street Park Development Project Authored By: Rick Gruen Presented By: Parks and Recreation Manager Rick Gruen and Engineering Project Manager Carla Staedter Item Type: Motion Requested Public Hearing No Legal Ad Required?: Publication Date: Information EXPLANATION OF ISSUE An Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) is required to accept the Steve Street Park development project for inclusion in a Metro 2019 Parks and Nature Bond Local Share IGA Between Metro and the City of Tigard. ACTION REQUESTED Staff recommends Council approve the IGA between City of Tigard and Metro as attached and authorize the City Manager to execute. BACKGROUND INFORMATION Dates of Previous and Potential Future Considerations The electors of Metro approved Ballot Measure 26-203 on November 5,2019 authorizing Metro to issue $475 million in general obligation bonds to preserve natural areas,clean water,and protect fish and wildlife.The Measure provides that Metro distribute$92 million of bond funds to local government park providers to protect land,restore habitat,and build and care for parks that connect people to nature in local communities. After voters approved the Measure,Metro developed the Local Share Handbook.The Handbook contains the requirements that each eligible park provider must follow to receive its respective proportionate share of Local Share Bond Funds.The Handbook requires park providers to apply consistently the community engagement,racial equity,and climate resilience criteria.The City of Tigard,a local government jurisdiction,is designated to receive$3,107,156 of Allocated Bond Funds. In accordance with the Handbook,the City of Tigard has completed the Handbook's submittal process,including formal identification of a project or projects.Metro has determined that the City of Tigard may use Local Share Bond Funds to pay for project-related costs pursuant to the IGA and Attachment A. Final design and engineering can begin following the execution of the IGA,followed by the requisite land use permitting processes. Construction is expected to begin in 2025. Public Involvement The public was engaged in a variety of ways,including on-site open houses,community surveys,website, and point of contact outreach at a number of city events. Information about the park project was provided in both English and Spanish. Impacts (Community,Budget,Policies and Plans/Strategic Connection) The long awaited construction of Steve Street Park will meet a strategic goal of the City and Parks and Recreation System Plan by building a park in one of the City's identified underserved gap areas lacking a park within a 10-minute walk. Local Share funds provided by the 2019 Parks and Nature Bond will significantly reduce the impact on the Park SDC fund balance. ALTERNATIVES & RECOMMENDATION Council can choose not to approve the IGA at this time and direct staff to find an alternate project or alternate source of funds.These actions would result in delaying the construction of Steve Street Park.

Business Meeting Meeting Date: 02/06/2024 Length (in minutes): 15 Minutes Agenda Title: Fourth of July Drone Display Authored By: Steve Rymer Presented By: City Manager Rymer Item Type: Motion Requested Public Hearing No Legal Ad Required?: Publication Date: Information EXPLANATION OF ISSUE Teammates were asked by Mayor Lueb and the City Manager to review options for celebrating July 4 with a drone light show.The drone show would be during the community celebration that occurs at Cook Park and Tigard High School. On September 11,2023,Mayor Lueb and the City Manager Rymer met with Ron Royce,the longtime community volunteer who organizes the annual fireworks show on July 4,to ask for his input on the possibility of hosting a drone light show in 2024 rather than traditional fireworks. The City Manager then asked teammate Joanne Bengtson to research information about drone light shows and set up virtual discussions with the two drone companies who responded to our request for quotes.The virtual interviews included Mr. Royce, City Manager Rymer,Executive Assistant Bengtson, and Martin McKnight and Rick Gruen from Public Works for their integral role in hosting the event in Cook Park. Teammates were tasked with collecting information about using drones vs. fireworks for the annual Independence Day celebration.The closest drone light show companies are located in Texas,Idaho,and Washington and all have done shows in Oregon. All advertise eco-friendly,modern,and innovative shows that are customizable and reduce noise pollution.Drone shows are still a relatively new form of entertainment influenced by cost and regulatory constraints.As technology advances,vendors expect to see them used for community events more often. ACTION REQUESTED Approve the use of an innovative drone light show as part of Tigard's July 4th community celebration. BACKGROUND INFORMATION This is the first time the City has looked into a drone light show for entertainment. Research,meetings and collaboration have been ongoing since September 2023.The most recent meeting was with the City of Tigard's Parks team,Ron Royce,and Darin Barnard,Director of Operations and Bond for the Tigard-Tualatin School District,to gain permission for a better viewing site directly opposite the Tigard High School grandstand.The location,suggested by Sky Elements' Collin Dishman,would provide improved sound,a better showing for crowds,an existing fenced operation zone for the drones and operators,and make more space in Cook Park available for visitors. •Fly Time: All vendors recommend shows that run approximately 12 minutes. •Expense: Expense depends on the number of drones.The greater number of drones provides a higher quality community experience. •Music:A coordinated sound system is part of the production costs. Our Design&Communications team has a new,quality, sound system that would be used. •Visibility: Sky Elements said their drones are visible for three (3) miles at the height they fly with proper viewing angles. Public Involvement Throughout the fall and winter,the City's Communications Team conducted thorough outreach to gain feedback from the community about the use of fireworks.Although not directly related to this event,the team received comments citing the appeal of reduced noise,garbage, and fire risk among other benefits of drones instead of fireworks. Historically,all event planning and performance is by community volunteers Ron Royce and John Chamberlain.Mr. Royce has been included in discussions with city representatives and participated in the drone company interviews. Ron completes the community event grant request,takes care of the advertising,pre-fireworks games,music and activities and reserves space in the Tigard High School stadium for this event;John takes care of the Cook Park set-up for fireworks,permitting in conjunction with Western Fireworks,TVF&R water tender,the City of Tigard Parks team and volunteers to keep people outside the safety buffer.The transition to a drone light show would change a portion of these activities, especially as it relates to fire concerns and the use of Cook Park. Impacts (Community, Budget,Policies and Plans/Strategic Connection) The City's financial contribution from the community event/social service grant only covers the fee for Western Fireworks and runs around$19,000,according to Mr. Royce.The activities prior to fireworks at dusk are a mix of donation,volunteer,paid,and in-kind costs.The preferred vendor (Sky Elements) 4th of July show pricing is $400 per drone and the shows range from 10-12 minutes, depending on the customization.This includes the show, show design, FAA permitting,and their travel costs for shows. It doesn't include venue/site rental or security. For a 100 drone show,pricing would be$40,000.With 100 drones we can write simple text, simple logos, and form amazing shapes and designs. In order to write detailed messages or replicate detailed logos,we would need the recommended 200 drones,priced at$80,000,to ensure a high quality show for our community.We requested a good, better,and best quote and Sky Elements'response was organized,inventive and engaging. If approved by the Council,the next steps in the process would be to bring forward an$80,000 supplemental budget request from the Transient Lodging Tax,sign the agreement with Sky Elements to secure the July 4 drone light show date,and begin educating the community about our transition to a drone light show instead of fireworks. ALTERNATIVES & RECOMMENDATION The City Council has multiple options with teammates recommending a contract with Sky Elements for a July 4 show. Other options include: •Choose not to use drones and retain the fireworks we've always used; • Choose to use fewer number of drones (100 or 150) rather than the recommended 200 drones. ADDITIONAL RESOURCES N/A Fiscal Impact Cost: 80,000 Budgeted (yes or no): No Where Budgeted (department/program):None Additional Fiscal Notes: The City historically invests approximately$20,000+/-in the annual fireworks display through the community event grant program. If transitioning to a drone light show is approved,we will return to the City Council with a supplemental budget request to appropriate$80,000 from Transient Lodging Tax to pay for the drone light show.

How long is a drone light show? 5 to 12 minutes is average with most bookings 8-10 minutes. All four vendors state the duration of the show depends on the complexity of the performance. How Many Drones Are Needed for a Show? As few as 50,up to hundreds or thousands Depends on the desired visual impact,complexity,and audience size.Smaller events may need as few as 50 drones,while larger shows could require thousands to create a visually stunning experience. Process, Location,Weather, Insurance,Permitting All vendors shared these tidbits: • Operators need a safe distance between the drones and the audience and multiple geofences to prevent straying from the designated flight zone. • The process can take anywhere from a few weeks to several months to create a concept,design&logistics, programming, rehearsals,and the final performance. • Insured? All have comprehensive aviation liability insurance coverage,general liability,workers comp,and automotive insurance,to protect both our clients and our team. Event organizers need to work with insured drone show providers to mitigate risks and ensure the highest safety standards are met. • Wind and weather conditions can impact drone show operations. In the case of strong winds, heavy rain,or lightning,a drone show may be postponed or canceled to ensure safety. • The amount of space required for a drone light show depends on the number of drones,the desired visual impact,and safety considerations. It is crucial to have clear airspace and a safe distance between the drones and the audience. • Flight ceiling is 400 feet for best visibility and all companies handle permits and approval from the FAA.

THANKS FOR REACHING OUT! We will be in touch with you shortly. Frequently Asked Questions Below SHOW LOGISTICS How much space do I need to do a drone show? The drones need to be at least five feet apart before takeoff. So, for 100 drones, you would need at least 2500 square feet. We also need to have ample space between the drones and the audience. Drones are not allowed to fly over people, so we recommend one foot of horizontal separation for every foot of altitude. So, if the drones fly to 400 feet, then the audience needs to be a minimum of 400 feet away from the takeoff space. How many drones do I need per show? 0 Even though an impressive drone light show can be done with a mere 20 drones, we recommend at least 100 drones to make a truly memorable experience. Some designs and ideas will take hundreds of drones, while others may only take several dozen. We can work directly with you to determine what you need for your show. Call us today for a free quote and an estimate on how many drones you need: 1- 800-518-5122 How long are drone light shows? Our drones can fly for up to 13 minutes depending on design and complexity of the show. We have found that audiences prefer shows between 8-10 minutes long. How long does it take to set up onsite? This depends largely on the size of the show and how many drones are needed, but usually only 1-2 hours. How much is a drone light show? 0 Prices can vary significantly based on how many drones you want, what kind of designs and their complexity, etc. For this, we recommend you contact us directly at 1-800-518-5122 to get a free quote. CREATIVE PROCESS What is the lead time for drone night shows? 0 This can vary greatly depending on location of the show, how many drones are needed, complexity of designs, permits and permissions required on-site from local authorities, etc. We can go from inquiry to show in a week, if that is what is needed, but the longer the notice, the better we can plan and make sure the show is exactly what you need. For the most up-to-date availability of our time, it's always best to call us at 1-800-518-5122. What kind of visuals are possible with the drones?

Business Meeting Meeting Date: 02/06/2024 Length (in minutes): 20 Minutes Agenda Title: Fireworks Discussion Authored By: Shelby Rihala Presented By: City Attorney Rihala Item Type: Update,Discussion,Direct Staff Public Hearing No Legal Ad Required?: Publication Date: Information EXPLANATION OF ISSUE This discussion will continue Council's consideration of what,if any,amendments are appropriate to Tigard's fireworks ordinance in Tigard Municipal Code Chapter 7.84 and include information learned from a community survey conducted in late 2023. ACTION REQUESTED Direct staff as to what amendments,if any, are appropriate to Tigard's fireworks regulations. BACKGROUND INFORMATION On July 25,2023, Council received a briefing on the City's fireworks response for that July Fourth. Staff and Council agreed that the current provision in Tigard Municipal Code 7.84.030 which bans fireworks during periods in which the National Weather Service issues a red flag warning was,though well-intentioned,confusing for the community,difficult to enforce, and not effective based on the City's experience in 2023. At its July 2023 meeting,Council directed staff to get input from the community around the question of whether the City should ban the use and sale of all fireworks,including those that are currently legal under state law. From September 12th to December 31st,the Tigard community was asked to complete a brief survey on the future of fireworks in Tigard. The City received 1,959 responses through a range of outreach efforts. The City distributed and collected responses to a paper version of the fireworks survey at El Tigre Fest,Farmers Market,and City Hall. A digital version of the survey was shared on the City's social media,newsletters, reader board,and website. The Tigard Times and Tigard Life shared the opportunity with their readers. And the Tigard-Tualatin School District shared the input opportunity in its district-wide newsletter and on its social media channels. Results of the survey showed that 56%of respondents oppose a ban and 44% support it. Key messages from the survey are attached. ALTERNATIVES & RECOMMENDATION Staff will be returning with an ordinance to remove the prohibition on fireworks during red flag conditions,as discussed in July 2023. We are seeking any additional items to include in that future ordinance.
