For example, I'll mention Tigard taking leadership positions on homelessness, affordable housing, clean energy transition, and DEI initiatives over this period. While I don't have a problem with any of these efforts, sometimes it seems that little attention was paid to the costs or unintended consequences of these programs.The homeless situation on Hall Blvd and the surrounding areas is a good example of this, and I'm pleased to see several of you telegraph that you feel Tigard has"done enough" lately. Likewise, I'm happy to see some attention paid to the exploding budgets for City events targeted to relatively small,targeted audiences lately. During that same five-year-period, I've also seen a marked shift in the Council's political ideology in a single direction, and I feel that some conservative representation on Council would benefit the City and its constituents. (And please keep in mind that this is coming from a former life-long Democrat who left the party about five years ago, no longer identifying with the direction they were heading. Today I'm a non-affiliated voter.) There are a lot of people like me in Tigard.We're not far-right extremists. We're sensible moderates who are not happy with the extremes of either party.Although Democrats outnumber Republicans in Washington County by a nearly 2:1 margin, the largest voting bloc is non-affiliated voters, like me. Based on the significant number of people who make their sentiments known on the City's social media outlets, there's a considerable number of constituents who feel they lack representation from this Council.Any of you who follow the City's social media know this. Therefore, I'd like to recommend that you take a second look at Tom Anderson for the upcoming appointed City Council seat. I think it would mean a lot to many of your Tigard constituents, like business owners,who feel the current City Council is not representing them. While I believe Tom is a registered Republican, having watched him work on a previous City Council, and getting to know him personally when my company subleased office space from his former Tigard Main Street real estate office, I know him to be about as moderate as they come. One of the things that really impressed me about Tom Anderson was his work with the homeless community.While many political representatives today like to throw untold numbers of taxpayer dollars at the problem and then publicly pat themselves on the back afterward, both Tom and his wife, Kelsey, were quietly volunteering, spending their nights overseeing homeless shelters. We need that kind of balanced, grounded perspective on the Council right now.

(Comments are due by Monday at noon) Tigard City Council Position Comments I am writing in support of Gabriel Velasquez for the open position on the Tigard City Council. I have served for the past two years with Gabriel on the Town Center Advisory Commission. In his position as Chair of the TCAC,he has provided thoughtful, resilient leadership and has demonstrated his ability to listen,to reason through the issues on agendas,and to support the team as we work to make Tigard a more livable,welcoming and equitable community. I believe Gabriel as our newest City Council Member would continue the positive,valuable work the Council has done in the past and will continue to do in the future.

Business Meeting Meeting Date: 12/09/2025 Length (in minutes): 5 Minutes Agenda Title: FEMA Update Authored By: Agnes Lindor Presented By: Mayor Hu Item Type: Update, Discussion, Direct Staff Information EXPLANATION OF ISSUE The FEMA-ESA public hearing is being pulled off the December 9 City Council and will be re-noticed when future hearings are scheduled. The item is being pulled due to the current state of uncertainty relating to litigation, potential dismantling of FEMA, and delays caused by the government shutdown. Additionally, FEMA is still going through the Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS) process that is evaluating the alternatives proposed. The Final EIS and Record of Decision will document the final selected alternative. ACTION REQUESTED No action is requested at this time.

ACTION REQUESTED Council will hold interviews with all finalists and decide who will be appointed to fill the vacancy on the Tigard City Council from January 1 through December 31, 2026. BACKGROUND INFORMATION With Councilor Hu's appointment to mayor, a vacancy was created for a councilor seat. In accordance with the City's Charter, at the October 21, 2025 Council Meeting,the Council directed a process to identify a Council for appointment to fill the remainder of the term ending December 31, 2026.This seat will be on the November 2026 general election ballot for the next 4-year term. The appointment application was advertised on the City's webpage and social media on October 29, 2025 with a deadline to apply by 5:00 p.m. on November 20, 2025. Fourteen applicants submitted an application before the deadline and met the eligibility requirements of Section 5.3 of the Tigard City Charter and are registered voters who have resided continuously in Tigard for 12 months preceding the appointment.

Given the current tax burden on Tigard residents, how would you assess the city's fiscal responsibility? What steps would you take to ensure efficient use of existing funds? 3.

What strategies would you pursue to improve mobility and reduce congestion for all road users? 4. How do you understand the role and responsibilities of a council member, and what abilities do you bring that will help you fulfill those responsibilities effectively? City Council Vacancy Application Questions All fields below are required. *Your Name Tom Anderson *Residential Address Street,City,State,Zip) Tigard,Or 97224 *Phone *Email *How long have you lived in Tigard? 19 years *Do you own a business in Tigard?If yes,business name/address Yes.Tigard Real Estate/home office *How did you hear about this vacancy? Local media. *Describe how you would complement the diversity of thought and perspectives of the Tigard City Council.Support your responses with specific example. Each Council member brings with them their own experiences.I cannot presume other members thinking on a topic without some discussion.However,these are the following experiences that have shaped my thoughts and perspective of my community:7 years on Tigard Planning Commission,2 of those years as President.4 years on Tigard City Council.Business owner in Tigard with a store front downtown for 6 years,member of the TDA.10-year member of Tigard Rotary,and current President.Long time member of the Tigard Chamber of Commerce.Current board President of my Tigard church.My two children attended Tigard schools from K through 12.I am very familiar with the local nonprofits with an in-depth knowledge of Just Compassion,Packed with Pride,Project Homeless Connect,Family Promise,Good Neighbor Center and the Caring Closet.I am a member of the Tualatin Valley Community Band based in Tigard and I currently volunteer 3 hours a week at Twality Middle school in their band *Measures 5 and 50(from the 199Os)have had unintended consequences in Oregon.What are the current impacts on Tigard and other local governments,what actions would you recommend to the state legislature to correct them,and what is your rationale for each recommendation? The Council should understand that Tigard's permanent tax rate was set below many neighboring cities and that we have an uneven starting point.It would be nice if Tigard and other cities in the same predicament did not have to continually ask voters to fund basic services through local option levies.Some actions to improve the tax revenue of the cities are:•Go back to Real Market Value for homes and recast value when the home changes ownership in a sale so that similar properties have a similar burden.• Raise the limited annual growth rate of taxable property value to over 3%of the assessed value to closely align with inflation and market surges.•Do away with the compression clause and have people pay the total price tag of what they voted for.All of these solutions are debated every year at the State Legislature,but no one has proposed serious tax reform since 1997.The League of Oregon cities is probably the biggest lobbyist group fighting for changes to 5 and 50 and they have not made any headway.As a Tigard Councilor you must understand the implications of any Levy that is imposed on Property owners,as Property owners bare a disproportionate burden to fund the city compared to non-property owners.A way to even that out would be to incorporate a statewide sales tax on retail consumption.But Oregon has continually rejected the idea of a sales tax and relies heavily on property taxes. *From your perspective,what is the most important issue facing the Tigard City Council?Why is it the most important and how would you propose the coundl(and the city overall)address the issue?Please be as specific as possible. Tigard needs a new Police station,and I have been a proponent for a new location for many years.The Bond measure going out next year is critical for the public safety of Tigard.Voters have to be educated that the current facilities are unsustainable and a detriment to the efficiency of the department.The bond measure will face resistance because voters will have to approve yet another tax increase so it will have to be well crafted and promoted in a way that shows value to the city and region. *Why are you interested in this council position? I am interested in this position because I enjoy the process of getting things done in local government.You should choose me only if you want someone with experience and a calm and stable presence on the Council.The ramp up time for me would be very short and we could get to the business of 2026 quickly.You would gain some historical and Institutional knowledge that I could bring on certain topics that may be lacking now.By appointing me there would be no public perception of hand picking your next councilor to give them an incumbent's advantage in the November 2026 election.If your desire as a council is to appoint someone new to the council to train and groom the next leaders for the city,that would be totally acceptable.If you feel that the council could use some stability,I am available. *Please attach your resume and references here(PDF or DOC)Use the+button to add up to 5 files.

I would bring an engineer's problem-solving mindset and community focus to the City Council.After 17 years working in a diverse company and in leadership,I've learned to listen to different viewpoints and find balanced solutions.I also lead quarterly cultural and belonging meetings at work,serve as Vice Chair of Tigard's Committee for Community Engagement,and organize Persian cultural celebrations in the city.These experiences help me promote inclusion,understanding,and teamwork,values that strengthen the Council and our community. * Measures 5 and 50(from the 1990s)have had unintended consequences in Oregon.What are the current impacts on Tigard and other local governments,what actions would you recommend to the state legislature to correct them,and what is your rationale for each recommendation? Measures 5 and 50 have limited Tigard's ability to keep up with rising costs for essential services.I think the community should have a direct voice.Before changing tax limits,we could bring it to a public vote,explain the impacts clearly,and let residents decide whether raising the cap is worth the improved city services.It's also important that the public is well informed before voting.we can work with volunteers and community groups(CCE)to help share accurate information,answer questions,and make sure everyone understands how these measures affect our city's ability to maintain and improve services. *From your perspective,what is the most important issue facing the Tigard City Council?Why is it the most important and how would you propose the council(and the city overall)address the Issue?Please be as specific as possible. I think the Council's 2025 goals have already identified the most important priorities for Tigard,housing,economic growth,livability,and resilient city services.The key challenge is balancing these goals while keeping Tigard affordable and sustainable.I would focus on expanding diverse housing options,supporting local businesses,and maintaining reliable infrastructure.By engaging residents early and working closely with community partners,we can make real progress on these priorities and keep Tigard a great place to live,work,and play. *Why are you interested in this council position? Through my three years serving on Tigard's Committee for Community Engagement,I've seen how much positive change happens when residents get involved.That experience inspired me to take the next step and contribute at the council level,where I can help shape policies that strengthen community connection and transparency. With my engineering and leadership experience,I can also bring strong problem-solving skills,teamwork,and a practical mindset to help the council make balanced,data- driven decisions for Tigard's future. * Please attach your resume and references here(PDF or DOC)Use the+button to add up to 5 files.

Thank you for opening up applications for the city councilor position.My background is in the arts,as well as nonprofit management.I am the Executive Director of Willamette Writers(a 60-year old Oregon nonprofit with over 1300 members),and I am the President of the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers Association—a global nonprofit.I have served on the Tigard Library Board since 2017,and I have lived in Tigard since 2007.During that time,I have come to know the city as a morn,a leader,a citizen,and a reader.My experience in nonprofit and change management as well as budgetary and financial policy and planning would provide particular support to the council during this time of transition.At the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers Association,I recently guided a staff and board transition.My goal was transparency, honesty,and communication,guided by a broader strategic approach.This focus on strategy also helped me as we built out the library's strategic plan in 2021.My experience with the Tigard Library strategic planning also helped me guide four other organizations through the strategic planning process.I now have a good eye for organizational stability,financial controls,and long-term planning.But the perspective I would bring to the council is not just a strategic one.My focus as a leader has always been on building a collaborative community of support and consideration,where the work of my teams is valued and treated with care.For example,as the City Council supervises employees and oversees human resources processes,my skills in managing staff and volunteers(over 75 day-to-day volunteers at Willamette Writers) would provide a knowledgeable perspective rooted in cooperative practice.Also,as a former University of Oregon(4 years)and Western Oregon University(4 years)writing instructor,I understand how to help students and peers reach those goals they set.The approach is simple:work together.That is the perspective I will bring to the City Council.As a middle class,middle aged white woman,I realize I have a tremendous amount of privilege,and as a leader,my goal has always been to use that privilege to the benefit of others,centering the people who should be leading the conversation:our diverse community.It would be my honor to represent them and focus on positive, productive change while I served on the council. *Measures 5 and 50(from the 1990s)have had unintended consequences in Oregon.What are the current Impacts on Tigard and other local governments,what actions would you recommend to the state legislature to correct them,and what Is your rationale for each recommendation? I first learned about these measures in Leadership Tigard.Former Mayor John Cook spoke about the capon local taxes—which I now understand to mean that there is a 3%cap on assessed value growth.Why that matters is Tigard already has a permanently low levy rate of$2.5131 per$1,000.That cap on growth,combined with a low permanent levy rate and compression mandated by measure 5 along with increased cost of services means that the City of Tigard can't raise enough money without extra levies.Put simply,the measures cap revenue even as expenses have continued to increase(particularly post-2020).That means we see the city having to return to voters time and time again for levies to increase revenue to support basic public services.We saw that with the recent public service levy.For comparison,cities like Medford locked in their permanent rate at$5.2953 per 1,000 in the 90's with Measure 50.In Leadership Tigard,we discussed how Tigard has a large day-time population that works in Tigard but heads home at the end of the day.We support tens of thousands more people than pay property taxes,and we locked in at a very low rate.It's not sustainable as it is nearly impossible to accurately project revenues as levies may or may not be approved by voters.Yes,we can move to fees for services,but that only gets Tigard so far because fees can be unpopular,limited by law,and they don't always cover the full cost of services.All of this makes it hard to fund everything Tigard needs;we don't have reliable,steady revenue sources.The two primary actions I would suggest are:1.Adjust the revenue cap to match inflation.This would help support a more balanced budget with predictable revenues linked to expected increases in expenses and services(without having to keep going back to the ballot box).2.Limit measure 5's compression rules.Compression rules do not account for the will of the voters when they vote for levy increases—they are voting for an increase in available funds,not a decrease in revenue.My caveat here is that these actions must be tied to commensurate support services and incentives around affordable housing.These measures were put in place in the 90's to rein in taxes and make housing more affordable.We need to further explore how to do that in Tigard in concert with these actions. *From your perspective,what is the most important issue facing the Tigard City Council?Why is it the most important and how would you propose the council(and the city overall)address the Issue?Please be as specific as possible. While the most important issues facing the city of Tigard indude budgetary constraints and houselessness,the council must first deal with their own body.We cannot skip over the mayoral transition or the need for pointed communications and dear staff and council support.Of course,as an outsider,I cannot guess at the internal workings of the council.But when encountering any difficult organizational issue,I would first begin by auditing,interviewing,and training so I could understand current resources, gaps,and structural issues.I did this when approaching the work of the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers Association.I interviewed departing staff and current volunteers,documenting as I went.I kept track of where people were at,what was missing,and what they needed.When we gathered together(which we did,a lot!),I made sure to give everyone space to share what they were working on,what was blocking them,and what changes they would like to see moving forward.Sometimes we cant get to the work we need to do until we address the ways we—or our systems—are failing.Stepping into leadership means taking on the work of those who came before you AND preparing the work for those who come after you.I would expect our immediate work to be discussing skillsets,how we plan to work together,and how Page I 1 things can be different going forward.The mayoral transition and public communications point to a hostile work environment and a lack of support for each other.While the Council does not oversee many employees personally,they set the tone and direction of the city through the focus of their time,the use of the city budget,and the ways they communicate to staff and to the community at large.Yes,we have human resources limitations around particular discussions,and I have no doubt I will encounter these during training and onboarding.But the work of the city doesnt change;we will continue the City's strategic work toward an equitable community,while laying the groundwork for a new collaborative direction. *Why are you interested in this council position? I grew up on a farm in rural Illinois.In 2005,I married my high school sweetheart,Bob.We moved to Oregon and settled in Tigard when his job brought us here.Both of us grew up in single parent households with limited income.Scholarships and loans got us both through college,and reduced-price and free school lunches got me through high school.I worked hard to make good grades while often juggling two jobs.With Bob's help,we've built a comfortable life where we are able to support and give back to our community.I've always seen public service as a privilege and a goal.We give the time we have to support others who need it.Up until this point,I've given thousands of hours and dollars each year to nonprofits,from Tualatin Valley Creates to the Oregon Poetry Association to the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers Association.Two years ago,I registered for Leadership Tigard,wondering how I could support my local community more—from finance and development to the arts.I met wonderful leaders and friends in the Leadership Tigard Cohort,but my biggest takeaway was that leadership comes in many forms,and leaders do not have all the answers.Good leaders work with the teams they have,support them,and when they can—they build those teams with focused hiring and core supportive services.Leaders don't have to have the answers because they pool their resources and work with and train the teams they have.They lead by example and lead positively from the front,while setting an example of service and kindness.I know I can be such a leader.Leadership Tigard simply showed me that those leaders in my cohort were not so different from me.Sure,I elevated the arts conversation,but come on—how empty would we be without movies,culture,languages,plays and books?The arts expand our lives and give us empathy.I take that empathy and bring it right back into my leadership.I'd like to be that kind of leader in Tigard:empathetic,kind,and collaborative.That is why I am interested in the City Council position:I believe my current skillset in leadership,organizational and change management,budgetary forecasting and strategic direction could positively impact the community I love. *Please attach your resume and references here(PDF or DOC)Use the+button to add up to 5 files. )Cate Ristau Resume 2025.docx If you need assistance completing this form or require an alternative format,please contact Carol Krager(carolk@tigard-or.gov)or Lindsay Bartholomew (lindsay.bartholomew@tigard-or.gov).

As a young man just starting my life,my fiancee and I face rising costs and limited resources.We stumble sometimes,and we lose our footing in this uncertain economy, but we always get back up.I want to show other people that Tigard is the best place to start their lives and that our city council is there for them.My Hispanic Heritage My name is Gabriel Elijio Velasquez and my father immigrated from Mexico City as a child seeking a safer life.Opportunities like his are becoming rarer under today's policies. When I sit at the dais with my fellow councilors,I will bring his story and countless others with me.I will be a strong,unwavering voice for our immigrant community.My Union Background I've been a proud union worker three times over.Unions have shaped both my childhood,being the son of two public school teachers and my early working life and taught me what it takes to fight for fair wages and basic protections.With so many Oregonians represented by unions,their voice deserves a seat at the table.My Economic Status No current councilor rents their home,yet 39%of Tigard households do,and many are rent-burdened.Until recently,I was one of them.When my fiancee got hurt and we both ran out of sick time,I worked 50-60 hours a week just to keep a roof over our heads.We survived only because of friends,family,and Tigard's food banks.Having someone on the council who has lived through that struggle would bring a vital perspective on how the city can better support residents in crisis.My Political Background My extensive relationships with regional partners and state leaders makes me uniquely equipped to best represent our city.Tgard depends on collaboration with our state and county governments to best serve the people here,and I know how to bring people together,build coalitions,and push for real solutions, right now. *Measures 5 and 50(from the 1990s)have had unintended consequences In Oregon.What are the current Impacts on Tigard and other local governments,what actions would you recommend to the state legislature to correct them,and what Is your rationale for each recommendation? Measures 5 and 50 made sense in the 1990s,when people needed relief from fast-rising property taxes.Now,more than 30 years later,the system they created no longer fits Oregon's realities.What once felt protective has become a barrier to funding basic local services,especially in cities like Tigard and in our public schools.I've seen the impact personally.As the son of two public school teachers,I watched my parents buy supplies for students every year because schools couldn't afford them.That still happens today.Under Measure 5,when revenues hit the constitutional limits,"compressed"dollars are lost forever,leaving schools permanently underfunded.Cities face similar pressure.Measure 50 froze tax rates at 1997 levels and capped assessed-value growth at 3%.That might have worked in a low-inflation era,but city costs-rent, healthcare,pensions,construction-now rise much faster.Tigard is expected to maintain public safety,support housing needs,and care for infrastructure with a tax system that hasn't kept up with reality.These measures have also created real inequities.Because assessed values are tied to what homes were worth in 1995-96,two houses with the same market value today can pay very different taxes.Newer homeowners often pay more,making an already difficult market even more unattainable. Commercial properties follow the same outdated rules despite being far more valuable.The system simply isn't fair anymore.Our city is boxed in.A city councilor can't change the constitution alone,but I would strongly support a statewide effort to modernize the system to protect homeowners.Oregon should consider reassessing property at sale with limits on increases,allowing local governments-not 1997 formulas-to adjust tax rates,basing assessments on fair market value,using different rules for residential and commercial property,and setting separate levy limits for cities,counties,schools,and special districts so essential funding isn't lost through compression.These reforms won't lead to runaway taxes.They just give communities the flexibility they need to fund basic services fairly.Updating Measures 5 and 50 is one of the most important steps we can take to ensure Tgard continues to thrive. *From your perspective,what is the most important issue facing the Tigard City Council?Why is it the most important and how would you propose the council(and the city overall)address the Issue?Please be as specific as possible. The most important issue facing the Tigard City Council is affordability.I've said it before,and Ill say it again:the cost of housing is pushing too many people out of the community they have lived in for years.A quarter of households spend at least half their income just to keep a roof over their heads.When people are devoting half their paycheck to rent,they face a terrible balancing act for healthcare,food,and clothing for themselves and their kids.That's not the Tigard any of us want.If we want Tigard to be a place where young people can get started,where families are stable,and where seniors can age in place,we have to take real,practical steps to address housing costs.We need to make it easier and faster to build housing of all types.Streamlining our permitting process,reducing unnecessary delays,and offering pre-approved plans for ADUs,cottage clusters,and small multifamily buildings would reduce costs and support the community's housing needs today.We need to also expand missing middle housing-duplexes and townhomes-so people have options beyond a rented apartment or a single-family home.And we should use the tools we already have:reduced SDCs for affordable units,density bonuses,tax abatements,and flexible parking requirements for projects near transit.Most importantly,we must support the people who Page I 1 already call Tigard home.That indudes stronger tenant protections,better renter education,and partnerships with nonprofits that help seniors,people with disabilities,and vulnerable residents stay housed.We should also look for creative solutions-using underused public land and working community groups and organizations that want to build affordable homes,but need city support.Tigard can't tackle this alone.We need to work closely with Washington County,Metro,TriMet,and our neighboring cities because housing is a regional problem and requires regional solutions.I will support any policy that ensures people aren't priced out of their Tigard homes.Affordability isn't just a policy issue-it's about protecting the people and the character of our city. *Why are you interested in this council position? I joined the Town Center Advisory Commission about 3 years ago because I wanted to make a positive difference and serve the community that raised me.Over the past few weeks,neighbors,friends,and community members kept reaching out and encouraging me to step into this new role.Their confidence in me reminded me of why I wanted to serve in the first place,and gave me the strength to step into this race.When I ran for council in 2024,my campaign was centered on affordability,business development,and community safety.I didn't win,but it was an experience that stayed with me.I loved speaking with people on doorsteps,hearing families talk about their hopes and dreams for Tigard.I loved chatting with people at the farmers market,sharing stories,and listening to their concerns.Those experiences made me realize that I wasn't the only one with pride and joy to call Tigard my home.Serving on TCAC and running for city council in 2024 gave me a clear understanding of Tigard's needs and challenges.Issues like affordability,reducing houselessness,supporting small businesses,improving accessibility,strengthening community safety,and preparing for climate impacts are all pressing concerns for residents-and they're priorities I am still committed to.When we approach these issues collaboratively as a community of neighbors, volunteers,and friends,we center solutions on the people who most need them.The values I ran on in 2024-supporting local businesses,prioritizing safety,and making Tigard more affordable-are still the same issues that residents and business owners in Tigard tell me are important today.And I'm just as committed now as I was then to putting in the work.As your next city councilor,I bring my lifetime's worth of lived experience,my policy background,and my genuine love for Tigard to the council.Thank you for your time and consideration.I would be honored to continue listening to-and working for-the people of Tigard. *Please attach your resume and references here(PDF or DOC)Use the+button to add up to 5 files.

I learned about the opening from council members during a city council meeting. *Describe how you would complement the diversity of thought and perspectives of the Tigard City Counal.Support your responses with specific examples. I would enhance the Tigard City Council by offering a unique combination of long-term community experience,cross-sector leadership,and a strong understanding of governance.Each element of my background shapes how I listen,problem-solve,and engage with complex issues,adding significant value to the Council's decision-making process.As a resident for 20 years,I have firsthand experience with the changes and challenges within our neighborhoods.This long-term involvement enables me to provide a community-focused perspective during various phases of growth—from evolving housing needs to transportation improvements and shifts in business development.I understand the priorities of long-standing residents while also recognizing the needs of newer families and individuals shaping the city's future. Professionally,my experience spans finance,human resources,business operations,and philanthropy,culminating in my role as President of the Intel Foundation.These roles have required me to balance budgets,lead multidisciplinary teams,analyze organizational systems,and prioritize investments for long-term impact.For example,in my foundation leadership role,I evaluated proposals from organizations serving diverse populations.These decisions required both objective financial analysis and careful consideration of community outcomes,skills that translate directly to city budgeting and policy assessment.My service on nonprofit boards further enriches the perspective I would bring to the Council.As the past National Board Chair of the YWCA,I collaborated with members across the country,representing various communities and priorities. This role demanded collaboration,consensus-building,and respect for a wide range of lived experiences.Additionally,as a trustee of the Oregon Historical Society,I engaged with issues affecting communities with diverse cultural histories,which required sensitivity and an understanding of different narratives.My experience as a Murdock Trust Fellow exposed me to regional challenges across the nonprofit,business,and philanthropic sectors,highlighting the importance of problem-solving from multiple perspectives.I would bring this same approach to the Council,ensuring decisions are grounded in data and lived experiences.By combining proven leadership with a commitment to community engagement,I am prepared to contribute effectively to the Tigard Oty Council's initiatives and goals. *Measures 5 and 50(from the 1990s)have had unintended consequences In Oregon.What are the current Impacts on Tigard and other local governments,what actions would you recommend to the state legislature to correct them,and what Is your rationale for each recommendation? An important issue facing Tigard and other local governments in Oregon,primarily due to Measures 5 and 50,is the limitation on local revenue.While these measures were intended to protect taxpayers by capping property taxes and restricting assessed value growth,they have inadvertently created significant long-term funding challenges for municipalities.This constraint directly affects the dty's ability to adapt to the community's changing needs and priorities.One pressing example of this challenge is the rising issue of homelessness.Tigard is experiencing an increasing number of residents facing housing instability;however,limited revenue makes it difficult to expand essential services such as outreach programs,shelters,and supportive services.aty officials often depend on unpredictable grants or partnerships to meet these growing demands. Still,these funding sources may not consistently keep pace with the growing number of individuals and families in need of assistance.As a result,many vulnerable residents remain underserved,placing additional strain on the community as a whole.To address this urgent challenge,the Oregon Legislature should consider flexible solutions that empower cities to meet their critical needs while upholding taxpayers'interests.Potential strategies could indude targeted,voter-approved local levies,modest adjustments to the current rules on assessed value growth,or the establishment of state-local partnerships focusing on vital services like homelessness prevention.Such measures would enable cities like Tigard to have the tools necessary for adequate community support.Adopting a phased,exploratory approach would allow cities the opportunity to pilot these innovative solutions,make necessary adjustments,and find a balanced approach between fiscal responsibility and community priorities.By working collaboratively,we can explore new pathways for enhancing the quality of life for all residents.Together,we can foster a community where everyone has access to essential services and support,paving the way for a resilient future for Tigard. *From your perspective,what is the most important issue facing the Tigard City Council?Why is it the most important and how would you propose the council(and the city overall)address the issue?Please be as specific as possible. From my perspective,the key issue facing the Tigard City Council is managing sustainable,balanced growth—particularly in housing,infrastructure,community services, and homelessness.Tigard is at a pivotal moment:the demand for diverse,affordable housing is increasing,population trends are evolving,and residents wish to maintain the suburban character while embracing regional changes.Thoughtful management of these challenges will be essential for the city's long-term health and livability. Housing remains at the forefront of this discussion.Tigard needs to expand housing options so that long-term residents can age in place,new families can establish roots, and essential workers—such as teachers and small-business employees—can afford to live in our community.Growth should honor neighborhoods'character while ensuring planning efforts are strategic and responsive to evolving needs.The visibility of homelessness is another pressing concern.While Tigard may not be at the heart of the regional crisis,the city needs to continue to proactively partner with Washington County,nonprofits,mental health organizations,and housing agencies to provide shelter, outreach,and pathways to stability.Addressing homelessness not only enhances public safety but also strengthens community pride and overall neighborhood health.As we face increased density,our infrastructure and services must keep pace with growth.Maintaining robust parks,stormwater systems,utilities,gathering spaces,and safety Page I1 services will be essential to preserving our quality of life.To effectively navigate these interconnected challenges,the Council should continue to emphasize long-range planning with inclusive engagement,strengthen partnerships to support sustainable growth,conduct thorough financial ascPcaments,and ensure transparent communication with residents.By actively engaging diverse voices and collaborating with various stakeholders,we can address housing,homelessness,and infrastructure needs more effectively.With thoughtful planning and collaborative governance,Tigard will remain a thriving community that residents are proud to call home. *Why are you interested in this council position? I am pleased to share my interest in serving on the Tigard City Council.Having called this community home for over 20 years,I have built meaningful relationships and embraced a strong sense of civic duty.I am eager to continue giving back and making positive contributions to our community.My professional background includes finance, human resources,business operations,and organizational leadership,culminating in my role as President of a corporate foundation.Throughout my career,I have gained a solid understanding of balancing budgets,building effective teams,managing complex systems,and stewarding resources responsibly.These skills are essential for effective city governance and ensuring that taxpayer dollars are spent wisely and efficiently.In addition to my professional experience,I have devoted much of my life to mission-driven service.I have served on numerous national and local nonprofit boards,induding as the past National Board Chair of the YWCA,a trustee of the Oregon Historical Society,and a Murdock Trust Fellow.These roles have enhanced my ability to listen to the community,collaborate with diverse groups,navigate different viewpoints,and oversee policy and strategic direction with both empathy and rigor.I understand that good governance requires compassion as well as a commitment to achieving results.My vision for Tigard is one where we prioritize transparency and accountability while fostering indusivity and teamwork.I believe in a collaborative approach to decision-making that engages residents in meaningful dialogue,understands their needs,and creates solutions that reflect our community's values and priorities.With my background and commitment,I am prepared to advocate for policies that support our shared goals centered around Tigard's 5 E's. *Please attach your resume and references here(PDF or DOC)Use the+button to add up to 5 files.

Q2: Have you seen the candidate evaluate input from different parties before forming an opinion? Kate is the Executive Director for Willamette Writers, the non-profit of which I am also the President. In this position, Kate is constantly working with many different parties in the organizations, all of whom have different opinions about how things should be done at the organization. Kate always listens carefully and weighs options before presenting options and her recommendations to the board. She understands issues at a fundamental level before she offers her opinions. Q3: How has candidate demonstrated their leadership? Kate manages all of our employees at Willamette Writers. She is in charge of not only the office staff, but also the marketing and outreach people. In addition, she is the de facto leader of our programs team,which manages a literary magazine, a film development lab, a young writers program, a large yearly conference, and several local chapters that have monthly meetings. Kate leads them all. Before that, she led the Portland chapter of Willamette Writers where she not only led meetings, but also scheduled speakers and events. Q4:The City Council sometimes makes difficult decisions. Have you observed the candidate in high stress situations and how did they perform? Kate is the epitome of the metaphor of a swan gliding along the top of the water,with her feet paddling furiously under the water. As I said before, every year Willamette Writers hosts a large writers conference. Kate is largely responsible for coordinating this endeavor, though we have a very large team supporting her. As you might imagine,the lead up to the conference and the conference itself is very stressful. Kate is the swan gliding atop the water, putting out one fire after another with style and grace and a smile on her face. She seems unflappable, and makes good decisions even when the options are all terrible. I've seen her do this year after year after year. I would want her with me on a deserted island.

Kate is a thoughtful, active listener, who encourages even the most reticent of board members to share their opinions and questions.As a result, discussions are given the time and attention they need so that no one feels rushed to form an opinion. Q3: How has candidate demonstrated their leadership? In addition to the skills in facilitation and tone-setting I have listed above, Kate brings kindness, community-mindedness, humility, and good humor to each meeting. She is a skilled communicator who understands the importance of diverse perspectives. She also understands the importance of showing up for people. In 2023, when the Library's Drag Queen Storytime program was canceled and the Library was closed due to threats of violence, Kate organized a public letter of support for our diverse programming. Earlier this year,when I had to break the news of centralized collections and their impact on the Library team, Kate again helped to organize a show of support from the board including hand-addressed and signed thank-you letters to each Library employee. Q4:The City Council sometimes makes difficult decisions. Have you observed the candidate in high stress situations and how did they perform? Kate navigates stressful situations with ease and good humor. Each year since she joined the Library Board, she has volunteered to be a presenter for the board's annual report to City Council.This is a stressful situation for many board members,which Kate understands, and has offered her vast acumen in presenting to large groups to lessen the anxiety for other board members. Kate also stepped up in the moment I described earlier and knew the right thing to do was to publicly,vocally support the mission,vision, and 10 values of the Library.Additionally,when some of us were the victims of targeted social media attacks and did not feel safe while at work, Kate calmly and repeatedly offered us individual support, in whichever way would be most helpful to us. By understanding both the organizational and personal impacts of constantly being terrorized while doing one's job, Kate demonstrated her ability to confidently lead with her values in times of extreme stress. Any other information you would like to add? As Tigard stabilizes after recent tumultuous events,we would benefit greatly from the influence of a local leader with incredible communication skills, emotional intelligence, and dedication to her community.That leader is Kate Ristau. 11 Gabriel Velasquez City of Tigard Community Reference Response for Councilor Candidate Councilor Candidate Reference Name Verification Date and HR Rep Gabriel Velasquez Alexandria Goddard 12/4/25 by Cesar Romero Q1: How have you seen the candidate involved in the Tigard community?For how long? Gabriel is incredibly engaged with the Tigard community, from his official service on the Town Center Advisory Committee starting three years ago, to his daily life in and around the city from the time he was a teenager.As a life-long Tigard resident, Gabriel has always been tuned into his local community and some of my earliest memories of conversations with Gabriel were centered on his hometown. He's very engaged in local politics and campaigns, shows up for local events and union strikes, and is always the first person I call to get informed about Tigard news. I can remember him talking up local businesses and the best place in town to get a cup of coffee just as much as I can remember him discussing policy that would influence Tigard and the city's future. Gabriel and I met in the state capitol nearly four years ago now and I remember being really impressed with how dedicated he was to his city and to making sure the city was at the center-point of his work and his deliberation around policy. Q2: Have you seen the candidate evaluate input from different parties before forming an opinion? Absolutely. Gabriel has a very strong reputation for being an open person to talk to. He's always willing to hear someone out, and he takes other people's input and opinions very seriously when making decisions. He's dedicated to balancing hard data with softer, personal stories and he uses both to forge the best path forward. His coalitions while working in the capitol building were both impressively diverse and incredibly effective, and he has a great system for taking in various opinions and arguments before making a final decision. Q3: How has candidate demonstrated their leadership? Gabriel is a unifying force to bring people together.When he was in the capitol, I saw him organizing projects and bringing people together with ease in conversations about very difficult subjects.As a senior advisor to my campaign, Gabriel would seek out more information about various projects without being asked, delegate tasks easily and smoothly, and fostered a great sense of camaraderie and shared ownership in his projects. Everyone who worked with him told me he made them feel heard, appreciated, and valuable to the team. I think his particular brand of leadership brings people together and makes them feel like they want to follow him, not just because he is their"boss". Q4:The City Council sometimes makes difficult decisions. Have you observed the candidate in high stress situations and how did they perform? Gabriel excels in keeping a level-head through difficult and stressful situations. He knows how to break emergencies into bite-sized tasks to keep things manageable. Even in the 13 midst of stressful days, Gabriel knows when to take a break for coffee, how to bring tension and anxiety down, and who to call for reinforcements. I remember once he had to advise me on a critical piece of campaign literature in the final days of my campaign. He reminded me of the previous drafts we had already been through,what edits we had made and why, and then carefully and methodically laid out the effect of that literature on the last few days of the campaign. He was incredibly sensitive to the importance of the piece, and how stressed I was, and his level-headed calm helped me through a nerve-wracking week without adding to the stress. I will always be thankful for his ability to tackle stress and difficult situations; he is still someone I call when I am making difficult decisions. Any other information you would like to add? Gabriel and I have worked together in a variety of settings, and I trusted him to advise on my campaign because he knows what it is to be dedicated to your hometown. He's a tireless worker and I've seen him take early morning meetings all the way into the late evening. In short, he's smart, dedicated,thoughtful, level-headed, and an inspiring leader.Tigard couldn't have a better city councilor. 14 City of Tigard Community Reference Response for Councilor Candidate Councilor Candidate Reference Name Verification Date and HR Rep Gabriel Velasquez Elana Lynn 12/6/25 by Cesar Romero Q1: How have you seen the candidate involved in the Tigard community?For how long? I've known Gabe since December 2022, and from the start it was clear how deeply invested he is in the Tigard community. He has been active in local elections, labor efforts, and community-led protests, and he's spent his entire life living in and contributing to Tigard. Gabe's love for his hometown runs deep; so much so that he's always trying to convince others to move there and be part of it, too. Q2: Have you seen the candidate evaluate input from different parties before forming an opinion? Yes. Gabe worked for my lobbying firm as a contract employee during the 2023 legislative session, and during that time I consistently saw him seek out and consider input from a wide range of stakeholders before drawing any conclusions. He is genuinely open-minded, thoughtful, and always willing to learn. Q3: How has candidate demonstrated their leadership? Gabe is a leader who prioritizes elevating others. His leadership style is rooted in support, collaboration, and trust. Rather than seeking the spotlight, he intentionally creates space for people with lived experience and subject-matter expertise to shine, ensuring they have the resources, information, and encouragement they need to succeed. I've seen him bring groups together,facilitate conversations, and help individuals feel confident in contributing their perspectives. Gabe's approach not only strengthens outcomes; it builds stronger teams and a more inclusive decision-making process. Q4:The City Council sometimes makes difficult decisions. Have you observed the candidate in high stress situations and how did they perform? Yes.As you know,working in politics often comes with intense pressure, and many of my clients during the 2023 session were highly controversial.Throughout that time, I watched Gabe navigate complex, high-stress situations with remarkable steadiness.Whether he was working on sensitive issues or helping coordinate bipartisan efforts, he remained calm, thoughtful, and solutions-focused. Any other information you would like to add? I believe Gabe is exceptionally well-suited for a seat on the Tigard City Council.As a lifelong resident, he is deeply rooted in the community and has consistently shown his dedication 15 through involvement in the city from helping organize movements or just helping a neighbor with unemployment issues. In the time I've known him, he has demonstrated an ability to listen to diverse stakeholders, evaluate input thoughtfully, and approach complex issues with an open and curious mind. Gabe would bring a fresh perspective, knowledge of the political system, and a deep connection to the community. He is a hard working and truly sees Tigard as his family. 16 SUPPLEMENTAL PACK • Council Meeting December 9, SCR 1219 I WI% Council Candidate Interview QuelAWA9P MEETIN_gl�naa k �5 Tigard Applicant Name: �O�✓1 Al4V,Nrk Signature of Council Member: QUESTIONS RECEIVED IN ADVANCE 1.
