COUNCIL GROUNDRULES-July, 1984
Communications Between Councilors, City Administrator and Staff
-- Councilors are encouraged to maintain open communications with the City
Administrator, both as a group and individually in one-on-one sessions. ..
-- Councilors are encouraged to direct inquiries through the City
Administrator, giving as much information as possible to ensure a thorough
response. ..
-- In the absence of the City Administrator, Councilors are encouraged to
contact the Department Head, realizing that the Department Head will
discuss any such inquiries with the City Administrator. ..
-- Contacts below the Department Head are to be discouraged due to the
possible disruption of work, confusion on priorities, and limited scope of
response. ..
-- Everyone needs to recognize agenda cycle and 10-day cut-off.. .Add-ons to
be minimized, and handouts distributed at start of meeting, except
Executive Sessions...
-- Staff will attempt to schedule items assuming the longer timelines or
assuming second reading of ordinances.. .
-- Don't assume Staff is guilty until proven innocent. . .
Communications Among Councilors
Try to avoid surprises or "plops", especially it they appear intended to
embarrass or discredit. . .Councilors and Staff should try to prepare in
advance of public meetings and get issues into packets.--
Add-on-Agenda items are not "plops", but should be brought up at start of
meeting and generally considered only if continuing to a later agenda is
not appropriate...
-- Councilors 'are encouraged to suggest agenda topics at the bench or to
contact the City Administrator about scheduling an item into the Tentative
Agenda. ..
- Requests for legislative action of Council may be initiated by any
individual Councilor and responded to by the City Administrator consistent
with resources and priorities, or referred to Council as a whole.:.
Communications with the Community/General Public
-- Councilors and General Public need to be reminded of the Agenda cycle,
cut-off dates, general "need-to-know" of how public issues are handled and
how citizen input may be accomplished...
-- "Official" communications should come through City :call and be pru•: ded to
the Administrator...Direct submittals or inquiries to the Council or
individual Councilors should be referred to the Administration, or
Councilors may ask the Administration to look into an issue.. .
-- Official "press releases" should be encouraged, both to ensure accurate
reporting and to advise Councilors and Staff of the official position
communicated to press...Press Releases are through the Mayor's Office.. .
General
-- Councilors are always Councilors in the eyes of the Administration, never
simply private citizens. . .
-- Information that "affects" the Council should go to Council. The City
Administrator is to decide on "grey areas", but too much information is
preferable to too little.. .
-- If Councilors get involved in labor relations (e.g. , employee contacts or
public statements) while staff is negotiating, then the process becomes
the Councilor's to negotiate.. .
-- Budget cuts mean policy decisions. Budgets will not be cut "piece meal
or "across-the-board", rather should be made in service or program areas,
giving Staff full opportunity to provide data clearly defining impact...
-- Use Request for Action form for "pothole" problems. Other concerns or
items should be set for an agenda by contacting City Administrator or by
motion of Council...

10. URBANIZATION
(C This chapter addresses the concerns expressed by Statewide Planning Goal
y 14: Urbanization, which is "to provide for an orderly and efficient
transition from rural to urban land use."
The Urbanization goal is important because it develops a framework within
which all development activities have to be coordinated, and it integrates and
balances all of the other available land resources in terms of the needs
expressed by other goals; namely tiousing, Economy, Public Facilities and
Services, Natural Features and Open Space and Transportation.
The urbanization goal also requires an allocation of land for accommodation of
laning period (1980 —
prato pansion
the norderlypandn efficient transiition20fO �romurbanand development
izableland to
plans
urban land.
The findings, policies and implementation strategies address a variety of
topics related to urbanization. Policies describe the process which satisfy
the need for efficient, orderly and logical urbanization within the
geographical limits of Tigard's Urban Planning Area.
Additional information on this topic is available in the "Comprehensive Plan
Report": . Urbanization.
FINDINGS
o The City of Tigard grew from 5,302 people in 1970 to 14,286 people in 1980
(Census 1970 & 1980) and the City predicts that Tigard will continue to
grow to more than double its current size by the. year 2000. The current
1983 population is 18,379. A portion of this increase is due to
annexations.
o The City limits have expanded by approximately 4.4 square miles since
1970, to its present size of approximately 8.6 square miles.
o All lands within the Tigard Urban Planning Area as well as the City Limits
have been designated for urban land uses, and are wholly within the
Portland Metropolitan Area Urban Growth Boundary.
o The Tigard Comprehensive Plan is an active plan, meaning the City plans
and designates land uses within the Tigard Urban Planning Area
(T.U.P.A.). Washington County retains legal jurisdiction over development
proposals, zoning and public improvement projects outside the City limits
but within the T.U.P.A. Tigard does have right of review and comment on
proposals and projects within the T.U.P.A.
o The area within the Tigard Urban Planning Area, but outside the current
City Limits, that is not already developed to urban intensities will be
made available for urban uses via an Urban Planning Area Agreement between
the City of Tigard and Washington County, annexation to the City and
subsequent development proposals by the property owners.

II — 65
o The City is committed to providing urban level services, or the
coordination of providing these services with the appropriate service
districts, to all areas within the city limits boundaries.
o The intent of the City is to provide for an orderly and efficient land use
pattern and urban services which must be available at the time of
development.
o The timing, location, and expansion of the transportation systems are
important factors affecting future urbanization.
o The desired development and growth pattern for the Tigard Urban Planning
Area is to be defined by a growth management system, e.g. extension of
services, streets and land use, which will guide the timing, type, and
location of growth.
o To assist in the financing of street facilities and improvements, Tigard
has imposed a Systems Development Charge -(SDC) on new housing development.
o Major trunk line sewer service in the Tigard Urban Planning Area is
provided by the Unified Sewerage Agency (USA) of Washington County which
has assumed this responsibility for the City's, as well as eastern
Washington County, major sewage system since 1970.
o Water in the Tigard area is provided by the Metzger and Tigard Water
Districts. These districts purchase their water from Portland, lake
Oswego and other sources.
o An Urban Planning Area Agreement. (UPAA) between Tigard and Washington
County regarding land use planning and annexation was adopted in 1983.
The intent of this agreement is to:
a. Identify the urbanizable land within each jurisdiction surrounding
Tigard;
b. Provide for orderly and efficient transition from urbanizable land
to urban land,-
C.
and;c. Provide a process for reviewing the land use designations between
the City and County;
d. Provide for a process to extend existing services; and
e. Provide a process for arnexations of land to the City.
o The agreement requires that, the parties resolve various issues, otherwise
the agreement will lapse on January 1, 1984 (or a later date if the
parties extend the agreement) and the 1980 agreement between the parties
is revived.
o The City does not have an UPAA with the school districts (Tigard and
Beaverton), but the districts do work with the City's Planning and
Development Department to estimate the enrollment impact of nQw
residential development in the City.
II - 66
o The City has made a significant effort in the past- to manage the location
