4. MICROTRANSIT PILOT PROJECT
Reza Farhoodi and John Mira gave a brief presentation that included Background, Ride Connection
Overview, What is Microtransit, Key Project Elements, Project Schedule, and Public Comment
Opportunity. Reza noted the service model has not been used in the Portland area much but has been used
extensively elsewhere. Reza noted that while this service model has seen limited use in the Portland area, it
has been widely implemented in other regions. Washington County serves as a Public Transportation
Service Provider and prepares a Transit Development Plan every two years. Through this process they
identified areas with unmet transit needs. John provided an overview of the Ride Connection shuttle
services. The pilot is grant funded and expected to launch in early 2026 ending in April 2027 unless
additional funding is available. It will operate as an on-demand service, allowing riders to schedule trips via
phone or a mobile app. They are seeking public feedback and data from the pilot will guide the program.
Two vans with seating for eight were purchased for the pilot. Beaverton School District has limited service
for after school programs and students at Mountainside High School are expected to utilize the program.
Performance metrics will be developed.

5. TRAILS SYSTEM PLAN UPDATE
Courtney and Rick shared a presentation that included Tigard Trail System Plan, 10-Minute Walk to a Trail,
Existing Trail System Inventory, Trail Safety, Trail Maintenance, Trail Funding, and Next Steps. Pilot
programs for trail lighting and a park ranger are underway. Trail maintenance outside of parks does not have
a dedicated source of funding. A new trail maintenance program is proposed with a $500,000 yearly budget
and an implementation plan of $2.5 million over five years. Courtney discussed potential options for the trail
funding. The issue of a new trail maintenance funding plan will go before Council on July 1, 2025. Courtney
asked if there was interest in advocating for finding and implementing a new trail maintenance program to
Council. A majority of members from both TTAC and TCAC expressed support for a letter of
endorsement to be issued by their respective Chair and Vice Chair.
6. E-GO PROJECT UPDATE
In the interest of time this topic was briefly discussed as a non-agenda item.
7. 72nd AVE PRE-DESIGN PROJECT UPDATE
Tiffany, Courtney, and Susan briefly shared a presentation that included Project Overview and Goals, Public
Involvement, Design Elements, and Next Steps.
8. NON-AGENDA ITEMS
A. Tiffany noted that in lieu of am August meeting, TTAC members will join TCAC members on
August 13 for a tour utilizing biking, public transit, and carpools to highlight some of the challenges
of travelling between the downtown and Triangle areas. Initial itinerary includes meeting in the
Triangle at the conclusion to discuss challenges faced with each mode and possibly a discussion
about the E-GO project. A survey link will be sent to solicit other ideas for locations of intertest to
be visited.
B. In response to a question, Courtney noted that ODOT used cost savings from the curb and
sidewalk projects to repave a portion of Hall Blvd., which resulted in recent striping being covered.
C. Richard asked about the bike lanes near Sattler, noting that the final painted lane appears narrower
than what was initially indicated by the temporary markings. Courtney will follow up, but believes
the markings were intended as a rough guide and may not have been accurately placed.
D. Sean shared with TTAC members the purchase of the former Regal Cinemas property which will
primarily be used for park space. Other uses will be discussed by the TCAC during the next couple
meetings.

WAYFINDING FRAMEWORK
The hypothetical map below illustrates the framework for Tigard’s pedestrian and bike
wayfinding strategy and identifies the sign types planned in the wayfinding system. This
framework includes a double-faceted approach to serve 1) Tigard’s off-street trail network
consisting of paved pathways through natural areas along Fanno Creek and 2) the City’s
network of on-street bikeways and sidepaths. The map is for illustration purposes only and
implementation may differ depending on context. More information for each sign type can be

SIGN TYPES
KIOSK
Purpose: Serve as placemarker and provide navigational information for trip planning, accepted
uses, accessible amenities, regulations, etc.
Placement: At plazas, rest areas, transit centers, trailheads, or other major locations where users
may congregate, rest, or join a path. These areas may serve as rendezvous points and contain
other amenities such as parking, rest areas, bathrooms, playgrounds, etc.
Programming: Kiosk map to be provided based on specific kiosk location.

FINGERBOARD
Purpose: Clarify route options to nearby walkable destinations, located in multiple directions.
They may be used in lieu of decision signs.
Placement: At complex intersections, or where two or more trail routes converge. Because they
are not standard MUTCD wayfinding assemblies and can contain more than three destinations,
fingerboards are better applied in pedestrian or off-street trail contexts where people have time
and space to process more information.
Programming: Sign schedule should communicate destination name, arrow direction, travel time,
travel distance.

Purpose: Mark entry to trails or paths at locations where limited user traffic may not necessitate
as much information as a kiosk. These signs also help guide users through less-used or
alternative access routes, while communicating to all users the presence of bicycle facilities.
Placement: Any location where there is a non-formal access point to the trail network (i.e. drive
lanes, smaller parking lots, secondary trailhead).

SIGNAGE DESIGN
SIGNAGE ARTWORK
Full-scale artworks for each sign type are provided as an attachment to this document. These
artworks, provided as editable vector files, provide the layout, colors, fonts, icons, and other
graphics needed for each sign type and should be shared with sign fabricators responsible for
the printing and installation of the signs. Prior to printing, sign fabricators update the sign legend
(i.e., destination names, arrow directions, travel distance, etc.) based on the sign schedule
provided by the City.
DESIGN INTENT DRAWINGS
Design intent drawings are fabrication drawings that communicate details about sign panel
layout, fabrication, and installation methods. While the signage artwork files are configured to
accurately depict sign panel layout, font sizes and styles, colors, etc., human error in file editing
may result in discrepancies or departures from the original design. The design intent drawings
serve as an important quality control reference to ensure that the original design is upheld and
that errors resulting from file editing are not carried through to printing and installation.
Specific fabrication and installation methods may vary as long as the finished product is
equivalent to the design intent drawings and notes. Design intent drawings are contained in
Appendix A.

SIGN PROGRAMMING
Sign programming refers to the process of determining what destination, directional, distance,
and time information should be included on a given sign.
A consistent approach to selecting destinations for inclusion on signs is necessary, given the
multitude of potential destinations possible. Signs should follow the same approach throughout
Tigard so that the system is clear and predictable. Destinations and their names should be
referred to consistently on all relevant wayfinding signs. As a general rule, only destinations that
are open and accessible to the public should be signed.
DESTINATION HIERARCHY
Wayfinding signs typically only allow for a limited number of destinations per sign. Due to
the number of destinations in and around Tigard that are accessible by bicycle, it is best to
organize these destinations into a hierarchy. A hierarchy of destinations is necessary in order
to determine which destinations to include when there are too many possible destinations.
Prioritizing and categorizing destinations into a hierarchy also helps determine the physical
distance from which the locations are signed. Destinations are categorized as primary,
secondary, or tertiary.

Primary Destinations
Destinations in this category are of primary importance and should appear on signs up to
three miles away, but may be signed for distances longer than three miles if they have a strong
regional pull or no other destinations are nearby. They serve as “pull through” destinations
because they draw visitors through the City from longer distances. When choosing which
destinations to include on a sign, primary destinations always take precedence over secondary
and tertiary destinations. Examples of potential primary destinations include downtowns,
statewide or regional trails, districts (of regional significance), major and regional parks, arenas
and stadiums, culturally significant landmarks, major institutions, universities, and other
municipalities.
Secondary Destinations
Secondary destinations appear on signs up to one mile away and take precedence over tertiary
destinations when choosing which destinations to include on a sign. Examples of destinations
that fall into this category are transit hubs, regional and community parks, secondary schools,
and neighborhood shopping districts.
Tertiary Destinations
Tertiary destinations appear on signs up to one-half mile away; they are minor and local in
nature, and are primarily accessed by people in the neighborhood. These destinations are
generally local attractions or activities such as community and recreation centers.
DESTINATION ORDER
Decision signs should be limited to no more than three lines of destinations, which include place
names, route numbers, street names, and cardinal directions.
A straight-ahead location should always be placed
in the top slot followed by the destination to the
left and then the right, even if destinations to the
right or left are closer. If two destinations occur in
the same direction, the closer destination should
be listed first followed by the farther destination.
Arrows should be placed for glance recognition,
meaning straight and left arrows are located to
the left of the destination name, while right arrows
are placed to the right of the destination name.
15 » DOWNTOWN TIGARD WAYFINDING PLAN
ABBREVIATIONS
When placing destination names on signs, longer names and routes may need to be
abbreviated. Unless necessary to avoid confusion, periods, commas, apostrophes, question
marks, ampersands, and other punctuation marks or characters that are not letters or numerals
should be avoided.
See section 1D.08 (Abbreviations Used on Traffic Control Devices) of the Manual on Uniform
Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD, 11th Edition) for standards and guidelines for MUTCD compliant
abbreviations. Abbreviations of words not included in the MUTCD, including proper nouns,
abbreviations should be determined by the City and a consistent approach should be used
throughout the wayfinding system.
16 » DOWNTOWN TIGARD WAYFINDING PLAN
SIGN PLACEMENT
Consistent and appropriate placement of wayfinding elements helps to provide a legible
wayfinding system while ensuring the signage elements do not create undue safety hazards.
The Guide for the Development of Bicycle Facilities by the American Association of State
Highway Transportation Officials (AASHTO) provides information on the physical infrastructure
needed to support bicycling facilities. Most of this guidance applies to off-street, shared-use
paths as well. The AASHTO Guide largely defers to Part 9 of the MUTCD for basic guidelines
related to the design of wayfinding systems. Additional information provided by AASHTO
regarding sign placement is as follows:
⊲Wayfinding guidance may be used to provide connectivity between two or more major
facilities, such as a street with bike lanes and/or sidewalks and a shared-use path.
⊲Wayfinding may be used to provide guidance and continuity in a gap between existing
sections of a facility, such as a bike lane or shared-use path.
⊲Road/path name signs should be placed at all path-roadway crossings to help users track
their locations.
⊲On a shared-use path, obstacles, including signs, shall be placed no closer than 24 inches
from the near edge of the travel way and no more than 6 feet away. For pole-mounted signs,
the lowest edge of the sign shall be 4 feet above the existing ground plane.
ACCESSIBILITY STANDARDS
As wayfinding systems often relate to accessible routes or pedestrian circulation, it is important
to consider technical guidance from the Americans with Disabilities ACT (ADA) in order to
implement wayfinding signs and other elements that do not impede travel or create unsafe
situations for pedestrians, bicyclists, and/or those with disabilities. The Architectural and
Transportation Barriers Compliance Board and the AASHTO Guide for the Development of
Bicycle Facilities also provide guidance for safe and accessible design for the built environment.
The following are standards that should be considered when designing and placing wayfinding
signs.
3
Sign Placement
17 » DOWNTOWN TIGARD WAYFINDING PLAN
Vertical Clearance
On-Street: Vertical clearance shall be a minimum of 84 inches when adjacent to a sidewalk or
on-street environment.
Off-Street: Vertical clearance shall be 96 inches high maximum (when overhanging the path), or
48” minimum from the grade of the path to the bottom of the sign and 24 inches from the edge
of the path tread to the edge of the sign when the sign is mounted adjacent to the trail.
Post-Mounted Objects
Where a sign or other obstruction is mounted between posts or pylons and the clear distance
between the posts or pylons is greater than 12 inches, the lowest edge of such sign or
obstruction shall be 27 inches minimum or 80 inches maximum above the finished floor or
ground.
Protruding Objects
Objects with leading edges more than 27 inches and not more than 80 inches above the
finished floor or ground shall protrude 4 inches maximum horizontally into the circulation path.
Required Clear Width
Protruding objects may not, in any case, reduce the clear width required for accessible routes.
Generally, this requirement is met by maintaining 4 feet minimum clear width for people
maneuvering mobility devices. This requirement applies to sidewalks and other pedestrian
circulation paths.
18 » DOWNTOWN TIGARD WAYFINDING PLAN
PLACEMENT GUIDANCE FOR BIKEWAY SIGNS
Decision Signs
⊲Placed in advance of a junction of two or more bicycle routes.
⊲For on-street applications, place 50 to 200 feet prior to a decision point; for off-street: 25
to 50 feet. Exact distances will vary depending on context and available existing posts/
structures.
⊲Left turns for bicyclists require special consideration. The decision sign should be located
within various distances before the intersection based on the number of lanes the bicyclist
must merge across in order to make a legal left turn. The following distances should be used
to allow adequate notification of left turns:
»Zero lane merge: 50 feet
»One lane merge: 100 feet
»Two lane merge: 200 feet
⊲Signs should have a two-foot minimum lateral offset of from edge of path or curb to edge of
sign to prevent clipping from traffic.
Confirmation Signs
⊲After decision signs and decision points to confirm designated bicycle route.
⊲Locations where a designated route is not linear as well as after complex intersections (e.g.
intersections with more than four approaches, roundabouts, or indirect routing).
⊲Approximately every one to two miles on off-street facilities, unless another type of bicycle-
specific sign (such as a turn, decision, or other bicycle regulatory sign) or pavement marking
is present within the one to two mile interval.
⊲Signs should have a two-foot minimum lateral offset of from edge of path or curb to edge of
sign to prevent clipping from traffic.
Turn Signs
⊲The turn sign should be located in the block immediately preceding the turn.
⊲When a bikeway turns, a turn sign will be located at 50 to 100 feet (on-street) or 25 to 50 feet
(off-street) in advance of the turn, or near side of the intersection).
⊲Left turns for bicyclists require special consideration. The turn sign should be located within
various distances before the intersection based on the number of lanes the bicyclist must
merge across in order to make a legal left turn. The following distances should be used to
allow adequate notification of left turns:
»Zero lane merge: 50 feet
»One lane merge: 100 feet
19 » DOWNTOWN TIGARD WAYFINDING PLAN
»Two lane merge: 200 feet
⊲Signs should have a two-foot minimum lateral offset of from edge of path or curb to edge of
sign to prevent clipping from traffic.
⊲Mounting height should be a minimum of 7 feet from the bottom of the sign to finished grade
for on-street signs and a minimum of 4 feet for signs along off-street facilities
⊲In locations where there are two or more bike routes, a decision sign, rather than two turn
signs, should be used.

RE: Agenda Item 9: Nick Wilson Memorial Plaza Project Status
DATE: September 3, 2025
The purpose of this memo is to provide the Town Center Advisory Commission with an update and
recommend changes to the Nick Wilson Memorial Plaza, a project to create a public space and trail a
connection between Fanno Creek and the building housing the Cooper Mountain Ale Works. It was
authorized by prior action of the Board of the Town Center Development Agency and added to the Capital
Improvement Plan in 2020. Based on the feedback of various downtown business owners and the
evaluation of the design, the project team has several recommendations. If the TCAC approves these
recommendations, the team will request formal action from the Town Center Development Agency
(TCDA) Board in October.
Background:
The City Center TIF Plan lists Plazas, Urban Green Spaces, and Fanno Creek Trail Improvements as
projects; the locations of these features are not specified in the plan. In 2014, the Community Development
Department started exploring a potential public space in the area adjacent to Fanno Creek and 12562 SW
Main Street, the location of Cooper Mountain Ale Works. The space would provide better access to the
natural and recreational resources of Fanno Creek, create a new trail connection, and serve as an attractive
amenity for downtown visitors and residents. Pursuing the space (then referred to as the Fanno Creek
Overlook) was part of City Council’s 2015-2017 Goals.
This site currently has one-way access into the parking lots of 12562 and 12564 SW Main Street, located
behind the buildings with separate ingress and egress driveways. The design of the plaza would include
closing one driveway to accommodate the public space and expanding the other driveway for two-way
traffic. This design feature required an easement on the property to accommodate the proposed plaza and
the purchase of a 10-foot strip of land from the Main Street Village Apartments, to build the expanded two-
way driveway.
In 2019, the TCDA Board approved the acquisition of the easement and land purchase. Although a formal
process to name the space has not occurred, Council recommended naming the space in honor of former
City Councilor Nick Wilson, who developed the original concept for this space before passing away in 2020.
Total cost of the project to date is $323,000 for the easement/property acquisition and $214,000 for design
development and 30 percent engineering plans. Remaining tasks include further engineering design,
environmental review and approval, and permitting.
Assessment
With further evaluation of the project, the following should be considered:
• Timing of plaza construction could impact adjacent businesses, especially in the summer.
• The redesign of driveway access would impact parking for adjacent tenants. The closure of
2
one driveway would require additional space for truck-turning in the rear parking lot. This would not
be part of the project, but it could trigger redesign of the parking lot, creating challenges due to the
site’s floodplain regulations.
• In 2023, the Town Center Advisory Commission ranked this project lowest in priority among City
Center TIF projects.
• Estimated cost to construct the plaza is $1.6M, in addition to the $537,000 spent on the plan design
and driveway easement/property purchases.
• Improvements to the existing Fanno Creek Trail boardwalk (adjacent to Tigard Curiosities) and the
ped/bike bridge deck are needed in the short- to mid-term. An estimate was obtained for a scope of
work to replace the deteriorating wood deck on the pedestrian/bike bridge over Fanno Creek and
the boardwalk approaches with non-slick fiberglass decking. The estimated cost is $300,000.
• Through feedback from some downtown businesses, the Tigard Downtown Alliance (TDA), and
Tigard Chamber of Commerce, staff learned about concerns with the planned plaza. Many
downtown businesses and adjacent property owners are not supportive of the plaza project.
Adjacent business owners are concerned about construction impacts to operations, including
construction noise and fumes that would make outdoor seating for customers unpleasant. Others
commented that the small public space would do little to attract people downtown and wasn’t an
efficient use of limited TIF dollars.
• In the event the brewpub property and neighboring buildings redevelop in the future, the Agency
could assess the feasibility of original plaza/trail connections at that time.
• Nick Wilson’s family has been informed of the proposed modification. They are open to an
alternative way to honor him.
Recommendation
Staff recommend modifying the scope of the work from development of the envisioned plaza towards:
1. Improving the existing Fanno Creek Trail boardwalk and bike/pedestrian bridge and honoring
former councilor Nick Wilson with this improved crossing.
2. Replacing the bridge decking and boardwalk approaches, adding new decorative bridge railings
3. Reconfiguring the existing adjacent Main Street crosswalk and bulb-outs to improve Fanno Creek
Trail connections, particularly for cyclists.
4. Restoration and replanting of the Fanno Creek banks between the two bridges
The estimated cost for this work is $640,000, which is $1 million less than the cost of delivering the Plaza as
originally proposed. If the TCAC concurs with this recommendation, the professional team will take the
following actions:
• Bring the recommended project modifications to the TCDA Board during a workshop in October
• Complete the design and engineering of the improved creek crossing as well as the crosswalk and
bulb-out design on Main Street.
• Update the FY26-27 Capital Improvement Plan.

RE: Agenda Item 11: Update on the 72nd Avenue Redevelopment Site
DATE: September 3, 2025
On May 27, 2025, the Board of the Town Center Development Agency approved the acquisition of the
former Tigard Regal Cinemas property (three parcels totaling 10.39 acres; henceforth known as the 72nd
Avenue Redevelopment Site). This site is a substantial, largely flat property that can be the location of a
long-desired neighborhood park to serve the fast-growing number of residents in the Triangle. The
agency closed on the property on August 28. Staff is finalizing a plan to secure and manage the site in
the interim.
In the meantime, work has begun on the Red Rock Creek Stabilization and Enhancement project, which
includes this property.
Next Steps
At the May 27, 2025, Board meeting, staff shared a concept partitioning the property into parcels for a
public park and a mixed-use building. While it is certain that part of the property will be developed with
a park and new streets, the future of the remainder of the property is more open. The most financially
feasible plan may be for a public-private partnership. Through a development agreement, the Agency
and the developer of a mixed-use building could coordinate the building of a public park and share the
costs of the site infrastructure. Staff will meet with developers over the next few weeks to explore this
idea.
Tigard is land-constrained so the opportunity to plan for redevelopment of the 10.39-acre site is a rare
opportunity to invite the community to share their interests and needs with us. This site is also critical to
redevelopment of the Triangle overall. As a result, staff plans to engage with the public over the next 2-3
months to get input on the vision for development of the site. In December the TCDA Board will be
briefed with the results of this engagement.
Phase 1: Developer Outreach
Outcome: Input on development feasibility.
Staff will meet with developers across the region to discuss the high-level opportunities and constraints
of a new building developed with a public park at the site. Development opportunities and ideas for
potential public/private partnerships will be shared with the Board in December.
Phase 2: Community Engagement (September - November)
Outcome: Input on the development vision
In addition to working with the Town Center Advisory Commission (TCAC) and the Parks and
Recreation Advisory Board (PRAB), staff will attend events like the Tigard Farmers Market, Downtown
2
Street Fair, and El Tigre Festival. There will also be outreach to Triangle residents that includes tabling
at apartment buildings.
Feedback will be collected on the following:
• Which values should the redevelopment embody?
• Which amenities are “must haves” or “nice to haves”?
• Open-ended question on ideas for the site.
Phase 3: TCDA Board (December)
Outcome: Board direction on next steps.
Staff will hold a workshop with the Board of the Town Center Development Agency.
Compiled information from community engagement will be shared, and the Board will be asked for
direction to proceed with a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for a private development partner. If there
is widespread interest in a community center, or another concept that would have significant ongoing
operational and maintenance costs, additional feasibility studies would be completed. Staff would share
results with the Board prior to issuing an RFQ.
Phase 4: Request for Qualifications (January - March) CONTINGENT
Outcome: Select development partner.
Staff will write and release an RFQ to select a development team. The RFQ review panel will include
representatives from the TCDA Board, TCAC, Chamber of Commerce, and others.
Phase 5: Park Concept Planning (April - December) CONTINGENT
Outcome: Park Concept Plan.
Community Development and Parks staff will start the park concept planning process, working with
park design consultants. An advisory committee will be formed with representatives from TCAC,
PRAB, the developer team, Triangle neighborhood residents, and others.
The Board will receive the Park Concept Plan in 2026.
