between the parties hereto as follows:
A. Tigard recognizes King City's Urban Planning Area Boundary delineated in the December
2001 Washington County—King City Urban Planning Area Agreement. Tigard has no interest
in providing services to this area except as required by the existing intergovernmental
agreement between King City and Tigard for water service.
B. Tigard recognizes as King City's area of interest the area outside of the urban growth
boundary between Beef Bend and Roy Rogers Road the Tualatin River and the BPA powerline
right of way, and the northeast quadrant of the Beef Bend/Roy Rogers Road intersection,
subject to further delineation of the intersection boundary. Tigard has no interest in assuming
service provision or land use responsibility for this area in the event any portion of the area is
added to the urban growth boundary, except as may be required by the cities'
intergovernmental agreement for water service.
C. King City recognizes Tigard's Urban Planning Area Boundary delineated in the October 2003
Washington County—Tigard Urban Planning Area Agreement and Tigard's Urban Service
Area as delineated in the 2002 Tigard Urban Service Agreement. King City recognizes that the
service providers to this area are designated in the Tigard Urban Service Agreement and that
King City has no interest in providing services to this area.
D. King City recognizes as Tigard's area of interest the area north of Beef Bend Road currently
located outside of the urban growth boundary, excluding the northeast quadrant of the Beef
Bend/Roy Rogers Road intersection, subject to further delineation of the intersection
boundary. King City has no interest in assuming service provision or land use responsibility
for this area in the event any portion of it is added to the urban growth boundary.
E. It is in the long-term best interests of the parties to establish a mutual boundary that is
generally co-terminus with the centerline of Beef Bend Road, except at the intersection of
Beef Bend Road and Roy Rogers Road. The parties agree that in the event the northeast
quadrant of the Beef Bend/Roy Rogers Road intersection is added to the urban growth
boundary, this section of Beef Bend Road will be wholly within King City.
F. The parties will work diligently and in good faith with other local governments to adopt before
March 31, 2006, or as soon as reasonably practical, an urban service agreement(s) that fully
comports with ORS 195.065 et. seq. and covers some or all of the area shown in Map `A'.

future responsibilities for the maintenance of Beef Bend Road.

Administration
Mayor Craig Dirksen
City of Tigard
13125 SW Hall Blvd.
Tigard, OR 97223
Dear Mayors Faes and Dirksen,
I have received a copy of the proposed memorandum of understanding (MOU)between King
City and the City of Tigard that will establish a foundation for the development of an Urban
Services agreement for King City as desired by both Washington County and King City. To that
end, Washington County has facilitated meetings between King City and Tigard to discuss future
boundary issues and assisted the cities in drafting this MOU to clarify these issues.
I understand that the mayors of both cities endorse the MOU and will recommend adoption by
their respective city councils. While County Administrator Charles Cameron and staff facilitated
the discussion between the two cities, I recognize that the product of those discussions was
agreed to by the cities of their own volition. I also appreciate that the agreement between two
mayors is not binding, but it is the first step toward the adoption of a King City Urban Services
Agreement. I support your efforts and the MOU for the following reasons:
❑ King City and Washington County believe an Urban Services Agreement is a necessary step
in fulfilling future growth plans and determining the King City's potential over time.
❑ As we have determined through our experience in other Urban Service Agreement processes,
the early consideration of future boundaries serves to significantly shorten the timeline for
the development of the agreement. This candid"laying of the cards on the table"by the
participants relieves the process of substantial uncertainty. This type of coordination should
provide us a firm basis for the subsequent discussions.
On behalf of the Washington County Board of Commissioners, please accept my
congratulations on arriving at an agreement that each of you feels will well-serve your respective
communities. I look forward to the development of the Urban Services Agreement.
Sincerely,
row
Tom Brian, Chairman
