ublic Facilities and Services addresses their appropriate coordination,
location, and delivery in a manner that best supports the existing and
proposed land uses. For the purposes of the Comprehensive Plan,
Public Facilities and Services refers to Stormwater Management,Water Supply
ment, Community Facilities,and Private
and Distribution,Wastewater Manage
Utilities. The provision of these facilities and services is essential to a high
quality of life and the health, safety,and welfare of the community. Their
availability is also vital to promoting and sustaining a strong local and regional
economy. For these reasons, the City and its partner agencies and districts
must efficiently plan for the impacts of future growth and development on the
facilities and services provided. Statewide Planning Goal 11 requires Oregon
jurisdictions to adopt Comprehensive Plans that provide goals and policies as
the basis to manage, maintain, and expand the public facilities and services of
the community.
Public Facilities and Services
"To plan and develop a timely,orderly,and efficient arrangement of public facilities
and services to serve as a framework for urban and rural development."
The community's vision is for a future where essential public facilities and
services are readily available to serve the needs of die community. They under-
stand the importance of not only planning for and funding the facilities, but
ensuring their continued maintenance. They also recognize the impact that new
development places upon all services and want them to pay their fair share.
The public library, senior center, public safety, and public schools are especially
considered vital components of a lvgh quality, livable community. Furthermore,
it is recognized that expected population growth in the region will place
increased pressure on existing public facilities and services.
The City of Tigard has adopted the City of Tigard Public Fadkl ,Plan (199 1) as
required by Oregon Administrative Rule 660-11. The City will make appropriate
updates to the Pub&Bacililj,Plan on a regular basis as part of the Periodic Review
process as required by Oregon Administrative Rule 660-25.
Section 1: Stormwater Management
The City stormwater infrastructure is a mix of natural and piped systems. As
with most urban areas, die reliance on piped stormwater has been important to
transport the water from impervious surfaces to the natural systems and move
it out of the community.To ensure the system operates effectively, dhe natural

components must remain in good condition to meet the primary objectives of
protecting water quality and flood control. To accomplish these objectives, the
Cit},collaborates with Clean Water Services (CWS) in the planning and manage-
ment of the system. The plans currently used for City efforts are the CWS
StornivaterAlairagement Plan (2006),which addresses water quality protection, and
Fanno Creek i1'atejsbed A/anagerment Plan (1997),which addresses flood control in
the City.
The 2006 StornruvaterAlanageiventPlan(SWAP) is a requirement of the combined
National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) and Mutvcipal
Separate Storm Sewer System (1NIS4) permits held by CWS. The SWNIP is
revised on a five-year cycle and was last updated in spring 2006. To implement
the plan, the City has an inter-governmental agreement JGA) with CWS as a
"self service provider."This designation means the City has operation and main-
tenance authority over storm drain systems,water quality systems, and roadside
ditches under City jurisdiction.The IGA outlines the CWS work program stan-
dards teat must be followed by the City.
The 1997 Eanno Creek it%atersGed A/arragenfent Plan (Fanno Plan) prepared by CWS
for all jurisdictions widen the basin,is the principal plan for drainage in the
City. The Fanno Plan covers 85% of Tigard (the remaining 15% of the juris-
diction drains directly to the Tualatin River) and has been adopted by the City.
Included in the plan is an inventory of drainage structures, an evaluation of
their adequacy of capacity,and recommended City infrastructure improvements
to reduce flooding. Funding for these projects is available through the Storm
Sewer Fund that results from the collection of system development charges.
In addition, the City is responsible for adopting policies and regulations that
implement statewide land use goals to protect water quality and wildlife habitat.
These policies and regulations must ensure that the impacts of new develop-
ment on the stormwater infrastructure are minimized. One of the greatest
impacts on stormwater infrastructure is the amount of impervious surface in
a watershed. Impervious surfaces increase run-off into die stormwater system
and increase the peak flow of storm events. Reducing the impervious surface
coverage will encourage natural filtration and help to reduce the stormwater
infrastructure needs, as well as reduce problems associated with scouring and
erosion of stream channels from storm events.
Although CWS does not have land use authority, they have been involved
in reducing the impacts of stormwater by developing the CWS Design and

by the City.A city engineer performs the task of evaluating the stormwater
infrastructure design during the development review process to make sure the
standards are met.
In addition to the CWS Design and ConstrucrYon Standards(2007), the City has
adopted voluntary habitat friendly develop-
ment provisions that may be utilized during One of t1ye

Funding for the stormwater system is generis the amount
-
ated from two sources.The first is from
System Development Charges (SDCs) that are oimpervious
assessed on new developments that cannot

facilities. The money is placed in the Storm
watersbe
Sewer Fund and used for capital projects. The
second, the Surface Water Management Fee,
is a monthly charge that is collected on utility
bills.The City keeps a portion of flys fee for operations and maintenance of the
stormwater infrastructure.
KEY FINDINGS
■ The expansion and maintenance of stormwater infrastructure is an impor-
tant factor affecting growth and development.
■ Objectives of the stormwater system are the protection of water quality and
flood control and are addressed through the CWS Stor-rj,,uater•Allartagenient Plan
(2006) and the Farrno Creek II'�atershed Rlanagenrent Plan (1997).
■ The City maintains stormwater pipes, catch basins, outfalls,and water quality
facilities;which includes ponds, swales, filter systems, detention pipes and
tanks.
■ Impervious surfaces, undersized bridges and culverts, and inadequate infra-
structure contribute to localized flooding.

PUBLIC FACILITIES AND SERVICES
The City of Tigard took over the provision of water to the Tigard Water Service
Area from the Tigard Water District in 1994. During the transfer of supply
responsibilities, an IGA created oversight for the water system through the Inter-
governmental Water Board (IGWB),which consists of a member from Tigard,
Durham, King City,Tigard Water District, and one at-Iarge member. The IGWB
advises Tigard City Council on issues relating to rate setting and water supply.
The City owns and operates the water distribution system under license from
the Oregon Department of Human Services and the Oregon Water Resources
Department. The II%ater Dish lm on Ilydwulic Study (2000) is the current master
plan for the City water supply system. The study provides direction for system
improvements,including storage and distribution.
Although the City owns a few wells, nearly 90% of the water supply is purchased
from wholesale water providers such as the Portland Water Bureau (PWB). The
City signed a 10-year agreement in summer 2006 to continue purchasing water
from PB. In addition, the City purchases water from the City of Lake Oswego,
which draws its water from the Clackamas River Basin.This lack of a City-
owned supply has been identified as an important issue for the fixture and three
long-term supply feasibility studies are in progress. The studies are in collabora-
don with neighboring jurisdictions and will evaluate various options for partner-
ships in securing a long-term supply.
During periods of high water demand, the City can supplement its supply with
water from City-owned aquifer storage and recovery (ASR) wells and native
groundwater wells. Additional supply is available for purchase from the Joint
Water Commission QWC). Water from the JWC is delivered via the City of
Beaverton system;malting it Tigard's only fluoridated supply. The City also has
system inter-ties with Tualatin and tie Lake Grove Water District that allows
sharing water under emergency conditions.
In 2005, the Oregon Departments of Human Services and Environmental
Quality conducted a source water assessment on Tigard's groundwater. Within
the Tigard water service area, 50 sites were identified as potential sources of
drinldng water contamination if managed improperly.
The City of Tigard Water System is set up as an enterprise fund. The budget
needs no money from the City general fund and operates based solely on
11_6 City of Tigard I Comprehensive Plan

revenue the Water System creates. System Development Charges for new
construction and connections, and rates for water consumption are the two main
sources of revenue for the budget.
KEY FINDINGS
■ The expansion and maintenance of water supply and distribution infrastruc-
ture is an important factor affecting growth and development.
■ Two water providers operate within the City of Tigard.This requires collab-
oration to define future roles.
■ The City of Tigard Water Service provides potable water distributed through
a network of reservoirs, pump stations, and pipes up to 36"in diameter.
■ Feasibility studies will help to provide direction for the City's long-term
supply options.
■ The City has experienced a decrease in total and per capita consumption
from 2001 to 2005 due to repairs made in water line leaks,rising costs, and
the Water Conservation Program.
■ The II%ater Deviand Forecast Report(2006) projects future annual water demand
could mange from 2,732 to 3,229 trillion gallons in the Tigard Water Service Area.
■ The citizens of Tigard are concerned about population increases and the
impact upon the community.
■ The citizens of Tigard are concerned about the future of public services,
which includes safety, schools and infrastructure.

Section 3: Wastewater Management
Wastewater services within Tigard are managed through an agreement between
the City and CWS.The agreement assigns the City enforcement of design and
construction standards, rules and regulations, and rates and charges governing
the use of,and connection to, the wastewater system. In return, CWS acts as
the regional wastewater authority that provides, owns, and maintains sewer lines
with a diameter of 24 inches or greater (the
City owns less than 24-incl lines), as well as
pump stations and treatment facilities. CWS "Land

was to analyze future capacity of the system
and found that all existing lines within the City of Tigard have adequate capacity
to accommodate anticipated growth.
The City has also developed the Sanitary Sewer Facility Plan Map to help priori-
tize projects and schedule improvements to the system through the Capital
Comprehensive Plan I City of Tigard 11-9
PUBLIC FACILITIES AND SERVICES
Improvement Plan (CIP).The facility map is continuously revised and shows the
locations of all current and proposed lines within the City. The map allows the
City to plan for new construction and also identify developed neighborhoods
not currently being served by the wastewater system.
The Neighborhood Sewer Extension Program was established in 1996 by
the City to extend public infrastructure to unconnected neighborhoods.This
program encourages property owners to retire septic systems and connect to the
City sewer system. The program does require property owners, upon connec-
tion, to reimburse the City for a fair share of the total cost. To encourage
participation, the City also established the Neighborhood Sewer Reimbursement
District Incentive Program that provides options for limiting the financial
burden on the property owner.
In addition to the operation and maintenance of the existing wastewater
system, the City is responsible for implementing the CWS Design and Co nstritction
Standaizls(2007). Land use applicants are required to obtain a Public Facility
Permit when connecting to City owned wastewater infrastructure and must
comply with the standards as part of the development review process. This
function is outlined in the IGA between CWS and Tigard and is carried out by a
city engineer.
Funding for the wastewater system is generated from three sources. First, devel-
opers finance the construction of new sewer lines needed to service their new
developments. Secondly,during die building permit process a connection fee is
collected by the City. Most of the fee is transferred to CWS, but a portion of
the fee is retained by the City for system improvements. Finally, the monthly
sewer service fee is collected on die utility bill and a portion is retained by the
City for operations and maintenance of the wastewater system.
KEY FINDINGS
■ The expansion and maintenance of wastewater infrastructure is an impor-
tant factor affecting growth and development.
■ The City coordinates the expansion, operation, and maintenance of waste-
water infrastructure dzrough an IGA with CWS as a"self-service provider."
■ The City owns and maintains wastewater mainlines sized 6 to 21 inches in
diameter.
■ A number of unserved neighborhoods have been provided the oppor-
tunity to connect through the Neighborhood Sewer Extension Program.

Section 4: Community Facilities
The City of Tigard provides many community services, while special districts
supply a portion of the facilities and services that make the community what it
is today. All of these facilities and services must maintain a level of service that
is adequate for the current population and, at the same time, must plan for and
accommodate future growth and development within Tigard. This is why collab-
oration during die development process is essential to ensuring the services will
be available and funding options will continue to exist with an acceptable level
of service.
City-owned facilities include the Tigard Public Library, the Senior Center, and a
number of administrative and equipment storage facilities.The library is a new
facility that was funded by a community bond measure and opened to the public
in 2004. The library offers a wide range of services and programs and acts as a
community center for Tigard residents. The library has experienced a significant
increase in use since the new facility was opened.
The Senior Center is a hub of activities for the aging population in the commu-
nit). Social events, classes,and meal services are a few of the offerings. Other
City-owned facilities are dispersed around the community and house various
City personnel and equipment.These facilities are vitally important to support
the provision of public services to the community.
Two public school districts serve the Cite of Tigard's school-age children:
Tigard-Tualatin and Beaverton. Only Tigard-Tualatin owns property and
operates schools widhin the Tigard city limits. Both districts have seen steady
growth over the years and are an important component of reviewing develop-
ment applications to ensure school capacity is not exceeded. Additionally, this
working relationslhip is important to finding appropriate sites for new school

facilities that will limit the impacts to the neighborhood and traffic flow.
Public safety is a critical component of a livable community There must be
adequate and effective services, as well as the necessary infrastructure, to
respond to emergencies in a timely and efficient manner. This not only applies
to the current population and built environment within the City, but also to new
growth and development.
The Tigard Police Department provides police services, while Tualatin Valley
Fire & Rescue (TVFR) provides fire protection and emergency services for the
community.Both have an intergovernmental agreement with the Washington
County Consolidated Communications Agency (WCCCA) for 911 service and
public safety communications. TVFR is a fire district that covers 210 square
miles, has a five-member board of directors and is funded through a permanent
tax rate on properties within the district.
One way for Tigard Police and TVFR to gauge
their level of service is by tracking their incident
response time. Both pride themselves on quick

police services. During the land use application process,TVFR reviews hydrant
locations, adequacy of firefighting water supplies, and viability of apparatus
access to ensure meeting fire code requirements.
In addition to providing a built environment that is accessible for safety equip-
ment, the City has adopted the Oregon statewide minimum fire code and
performs inspections on new construction. The fire code outlines the required
equipment for various development types and sizes. Homeowners can volun-
tarily take steps to reduce risk of fire by installing equipment and providing a
defensible space around structures that are located in an area at risk of wildfire.
KEY FINDINGS
■ Growth and development will place increasing demands on the Police
Department,wlvch has an average response time that has increased by 16`%
over the 5 year period from 2002 to 2006.
■ Areas of high population density and commercial areas, particularly
Washington Square Mall, place High demands on the Tigard Police
Department.
■ TVTR provides fire protection services for the City through an IGA.
■ The dependability of fire protection is based in part on the distribution and
capacity of the City water supply.
■ The City owns all fire hydrants within its boundaries.
■ The community has an ISO fire insurance rating of 2, one of 15 in Oregon.
■ Street widths must be adequate for fire equipment access and egress,wluch
may conflict with development tliat is promoting a pedestrian-friendly envi-
ronment through narrower streets.
■ Appropriate fire detection and suppression equipment installed at the time
of development is cost-effective and invaluable in reducing the community's
risk to fire.
■ Two public school districts serve the City of Tigard's school-age children:
Tigard-Tualatin and Beaverton.The school district boundary dates back to
1910,prior to Tigard's incorporation.
■ In both 1993 and 2006 city surveys,Tigard residents named schools, educa-
tion or school funding as top issues for the community (ranking 6th and 4th,
respectively).
■ TTSD owns a number of properties in Tigard. The Beaverton School
District does not own any property within Tigard.
■ TTSD estimates slow steady growth: 4.6% rate by 2010,with no additional
schools planned for City limits.

Section 5: Private Utilities
Telecommunications, electricity,video, and natural gas service are provided
to residents and business owners witvn the City of Tigard by private utili-
ties. These private utilities pay an annual right-of-way usage fee to the City as
outlined in the Tigard Municipal Code. This protects the public's past and ongoing
investments in rights-of-way and other public lands.The fee also adheres to an
equity principle that private companies should pay for the privilege of using
public property to conduct business, just as they pay for the privilege of using
private property to conduct business.
The services provided by these private compa-
riies and the associated infrastructure are
essential to the community. As growth and it
development occurs within the community; the
City must require that these services are availutility
-
able and coordinate their extension during the
development process,while at the same time installatioizs
protecting the primary intended use of public in the public
rights-of-Nvay and other public properties. This
coordination, and cooperation between the
various entities, helps to avoid conflict with
current and planned infrastructure in the right- may result
of-way and provides fair opportunity to access in multiple
the right-of-way.. Additionally, uncoordinated
utility installations in the public right-of-way
sti-eet cuts and
may result in multiple street cuts and increased
public costs to maintain curbs,gutters, streets, increased
and sidewalks.
The placement of utilities in the public right-
of-way is regulated by the Tigard Commnnit,
Demlopment Code. During the development review process,a city engineer
approves plans showing the location of utilities.New development is typically
Comprehensive Plan City of Tigard 11-17
PUBLIC FACILITIES AND SERVICES
required to place utilities underground unless they are already in existence above
ground, or where the action would not be feasible. In certain cases,where
undergrounding is not feasible and the utility crosses or is adjacent to a public
right-of-way, an in-Lieu of fee may be assessed and placed into a fund that is
used to move existing utilities underground elsewhere in the City.
The City has also recognized the demand for wireless communication services
and adopted regulations for the facilities necessary to provide them. The infra-
structure needed to support the services has a visual impact upon the commu-
nity and collocation efforts are encouraged by the City to minimize that impact.
Collocation is the practice of placing the communication equipment of two or
more companies on one structure (wireless tower).
KEY FINDINGS
■ Telecommunications, electricity;video, and natural gas service are provided
to residents and business owners within the City of Tigard by private utiE-
ties. These private utilities pay an annual right-of-way usage fee to the City as
outlined in the Tigard Allunicpal Code.
■ As growth and development occurs within the community, the City must
ensure that private utility services are available and coordinate their exten-
sion during the development process.
■ Collocation of wireless communication equipment and the location of the
towers upon which the equipment resides have a direct visual impact upon
the community.
■ As an equity principle,private companies should pay for the privilege of
using public property to conduct business.
■ A key task of the City is to protect the public's investments and the primary
intended use of these assets.
GOAL
11.5 Private utilities provide the needed energy and communication services
for the community.
POLICIES
1. The City shall require that all new development:
A. secure the required energy and communication utilities;
B. place new utilities underground,when feasible, or pay an in-lieu-of
fee when crossing or adjacent to a public right-of-way; and
11-18 Cityof Tigard I Comprehensive Plan
PUBLIC FACILITIES AND SERVICES
C. provide necessary easements for energy and communication services.
2. The City shall require the placement of existing services underground,
when feasible, or pay an in-lieu-of fee during redevelopment or street
construction.
3. The City shall coordinate with private utilities during installation to
minimize public costs to maintain curbs,gutters, streets, and sidewalks.
4. The City shall require the collocation of wireless communication
services on existing towers whenever possible.
5. The City shall manage the siting of wireless communication towers to
minimize visual impacts on the community.
6. The City shall manage private utility use of the public rights-of-way and
other public lands to:
A. protect the primary intended use of these assets;

involved in emerging technologies;
C. protect the public's past and ongoing investments by assessing suffi-
cient charges fox the privilege of using these public assets; and
D. Ensure the community has equitable access to essential private
utilities.
RECOMMENDED ACTION MEASURES
i. Identify and map areas that are conducive to using in-lieu-of fees for
placing utility lines under ground during City projects.

iii. Review and improve the protocol for collocating wireless communica-
tion services.
iv. Research the feasibility of and survey the community support for a City-

AGRICULTURAL LANDS
0 regon Statewide Planning Goal I Agricultural Lands, requires local
governments to "preserve and maintain agricultural lands." Goal
3 states that only land that lies outside Urban Growth Boundaries
can be classified as agricultural. This directs counties to identif,,preserve,
and maintain lands for farm use, consistent with existing and future needs for
agricultural products, forest and open space and with the state's agricultural land
use policy expressed in the Oregon Revised Statues.
The City of Tigard,which is located entirely within an Urban Growth
Boundary, therefore contains no agricultural land according to the definition of
Statewide Planning Goal 3. However, the City of Tigard supports the efficient
use of urban land within its city limits to help preserve designated farm lands
in rural areas. By encouraging compact growth within the city,Tigard can help
to slow urban expansion into rural areas. Chapter 14, Urbanization,discusses
appropriate and timely urban expansion.
3-1 City of Tigard Comprehensive Plan
FOREST LANDS
0 regon Statewide Planning Goal 4: Forest Lands, requires local
governments to "to conserve forest lands by maintaining the forest
land base and to protect the state's forest economy by making possible
economically efficient forest practices that assure the continuous growing and
harvesting of forest tree species as the leading use on forest land consistent
with sound management of soil, air,water, and fish and wildlife resources and
to provide for recreational opportunities and agriculture."
Land is considered forest land only if it was acknowledged as such when Goal
4 was adopted. The City of Tigard has not identified any forest lands within
its city limits, therefore contains no commercial forestry land. For this reason,
the City of Tigard has not adopted any goals or policies related to commer-
cial forestry. However, the City of Tigard recognizes the importance of the
management and preservation of urban trees and has adopted goals and
policies pertaining to trees (see Chapter 2:Land Use and Chapter 5: Natural
Resources).
