Mona Steel, 16440 S.W. 113th Avenue read into the record a letter signed by her and Leon Steel.

Park Board Chairperson summarized the Board's strategy plan for- implementation of the five-year and ten-year plan (soo attached listing) : 1 . Land Acquisition - what City presently has and what is hoped to be in 10 years. land acquisition was prioritized as well . 2. Improvement Projects. 3 . Development Projects. C. Councilor Johnson inquired on the amount of usage of the smaller neighborhood parks. Park Board Chairperson said he believed that the people were out there and using the parks; however•, he had no "hard data" on this. Parks Crew Chief said Lhat Cook Park is highly used because it is reservable, but he. , too, felt the neighborhood parks were used. He noted larger parks are more economical due to decreased maintenance expenses . d. There was discussion on strategy for focus on completion of projects. City Administrator suggested that the Improvement Projects for Cook, Fanno Creek and Summer-lake Parks i.-Along with implementation of completion of a pathway system may be the best use of dollars available and consistent with proposals brought out during this discussion. e. Park Board Chairperson commented that larger parks would require a Master Parks Plan which would cost approximately $10,000 per park. f. There was lengthy discussion on a financial target consisting of money available through Systems Development Charge Fees coupled with a possible levy amount. Consensus was that 15¢ per thousand dollars of assessed value would be consistent with Council estimates and enable implementation of the first stages of the proposed five-year plan. Discussed was the possibility of having this go before the voters in the spring of 1989. g. Consensus of Council as to timeline and direction for the Park Board was as follows: Page 4 - COUNCIL MINUTES - SEPTEMBER. 21, 1987 o Park Board to reprioritize projects within the Financial Target; i .e. , 15¢ per thousand dollars of assessed value + amount available from the Systems Development Charges for a total of around $1,250,000+/—. This reprioritized list should be back to Council in October or November•. o Identify critical land for future park noeds while simultaneously earmarking and reserving SDC funds for this purpose. The possibility of increasing SDC fees should be explored; this must be done through the budget process which begins in December or January. o Site plans should be prepared and before Council on Summerlake and Fanno Creek Parks in June or July, 1988. Cook Park would require a separate Park Master Plan. o Coordinate with Senior Planner Newton for• any Development Plan/Code Revisions necessary. o Fall of 1988 — begin education of community on plan being proposed. o Spring 1989 -• Levy question to voters. 6.

We knew then that it was "totally inadequate". We informed you, the Council, the City of Tigard Engineers, and we met with Westwood Construction engineer about the design. It has taken us this long to finally get someone to say, "Yes, you are correct". We have contacted many federal and state officials about our concerns. They finally referred our concerns to the DEQ. On September 17, 1987, the Benzs and we met with Robert P. Baumgartner, Point Source Specialist of Water Quality Division Planning and Monitoring Section. Mr. Baumgartner informed us of DEQ's findings concerning the filter system being "totally inadequate" during heavy rain periods. It was our understanding in our conversation with Mr. Baumgartner that he had a lengthy conversation with the engineers and was very explicit that it was "totally inadequate". I want to make you aware of the Federal Law concerning stormwater dis- charges which is set forth in Section 405E of the 1987 Clean Water Act flum (CWA) . This law specifically pertains to municipal and industrial IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIS stormwater discharges which this is. According to the Water Resources Department we have water rights and in good standi. g. We have certain rights that protect us against upstream junior appropriators. If attributable damage occurs because of Westwood Development, it would be a civil matter. We also feel that the City of Tigard has certain liabilities since they OK'd this project and this filter system. We have just been informed that a car wash and filling station are being considered by Westwood Construction for the Tigard Town Center. We are asking where will this water go? Which creek do they intend to contaminate with their waste water? We are asking that the City of Tigard take a second look at this project and not allow Westwood to blacktop their parking lot or redo Durham Road until this matter is totally resolved. Thank you.

The City Center Plan Task Force was appointed about 6 months ago to spearhead the City Lenter Plan. The Economic Development Committee has taken the lead un the targeted Economic Action Plan. The Tigard Triangle Area will be reviewed as part of F this effort. City Council is concerned that development riot be prohibited in these special areas during the development of goals and design standards but that development which does occur be somewhat compatible with future plans for the areas. To accomplish this, staff proposes that the City adopt the "Action Area" concept which is loosely modeled after the activity centeii concept used in Clackamas County around Clackamas Town Square. The Action Area concept: involves three major elements. First, it requires that areas to be reviewed like the CBD or Triangle be designated as Action Areas. Second, it requires that a Design Plan be adopted for Action Areas. Lastly, it requires thet interim standards as set forth in the Code provisions be addressed for any development occurring in an Action Area to ensure that the development is riot in conflict with intentions of a proposed Design Plan. Attached are the proposed standards to be included in the Development Code and the proposed goals and policies to be included in the Comprehensive Plan. RECOMMENDATION 1. Review the proposed development standards and goals and polices, suggest modifications and recommend approval to City Council. 2.

Lehr _ DEPT HEAD OK CITY ADMIN OK REQUF:.SIE:U BY: City Council 1 POLICY ISSUE Whether the City shall continue to aLLompt to resolve high school parking concerns through off--siL-e engineering and enforcement efforts or whether the School District should resolve the issue by the provision of adequate on--site parking. i INFORMATION SUMMARY Last Fall , the issue of high school parking concerns was discussed by the City Council . Three separ•aLe, but related, issi.ies were addressed. The first was the concern of Kneeland Estate residents and City staff about par-king on the west side of 92nd Avenue. That .issue was resolved by Council action. The second issue was daytime parking In the r-esidential area by st' udents . the parking of student vehicles in Lhe residontial arca leads to blocking of driveways, mail boxes t.and fire hydrants, litter•, and loitering in the residential areas. The problem continues to date. The Police Depar-tment; and the High School are te',irig measures to cor•rec:L the problem, inc1udirig ticketing of illegally parked cars, towing of vehicles blocking driveways and fire hydrants and, starting September 23. , Monday, students being called out of class to move their- vehicles to .available parking spaces on 92nd Avenue and 65th Str.oet. The third issue is parking related to special events, especially football games. last year-, the Council discussed sover'al all:er•native approaches to dealing with the problems related to football fans parking in residential areas, including illegally parked cars, cards blocking fire hydrants and driveways, trespassing, vandalism, public urination and other- viol�ati.ons. Council directed the Police Department staff to provide high profile patrol of the .area with ticketing and arrests. We wvr•c to ALLempt, to encourage parking in Cook Park. During the last football game of 1986, the Department used that approach and felt it to be fairly successful, although the attendance at that game was low. We also used that approach during the first game of this season with a large measure of success. Forty—one parking tickets were issued and high profile patrolling was done. We had an informal survey conducted in the Kneeland Estates subdivision and had unanimous approval of our efforts from the nine people surveyed. To enhance our coverage of the residential areas during football games, I have directed Lt. Wheeler to convene a detail of the SROs, reserves and the motor officers to patrol the game and the residential areas. We will continue to ticket and we will tow vehicles blocking fire hydrants and driveways . We will provide high profile patrols or the area. The costs of providing this level of patrol will be in overtime for the SROs and one motor officer. Al Zimmerman, the Nigh School Principal, is considering allowing parking on the ball fields on the south side of the football stadium. We will also encourage parking in Cook Park and perhaps provide shuttle bus service to the (' stadium. Cook Park parking is now lit and people might be more willing to park there. The Police Department staff will continue to work with the Nigh School staff in taking corrective action in these areas. ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED 1 . Receive and file. 2. Council provide new direction for Police Department staff. FISCAL IMPACT 1 . Overtime costs for SRO' s and one motor• officer•. SUGGESTED ACTION 1 .

Sanito..ry wor and storm drainage utilities would } not ready for their attention until spring of '88 and should be a lower priority on their- work plan at this time. 1 Jerry McReynolds highlighted the work of the Committee over the last year- noting the development of formal procedures for a semi—automatic review of the solid waste franchise agreements. He stated that the Committee anticipates a need to pot:3ibly reconstruct the rates at a later date. F Mr. McReynolds advised Council of a request by Pacific Northwest Bell to modify their phot, franchise with the City. He noted that this was as a result of the deregulation of phone services. He stated that the Committee would be looking at changing the franchise agreement to a quarterly payment basis instead of annual. He further suggested the Committee would like to review all franchise agreements with other cities so that this might be more comparable, he noted a difference of 2 and 3 percent between cities in the collection requirements on franchise fees. . Mayor Brian stated that the equity between cities of the rates is an interesting issue and suggested this would be a area for the x Committee to research. Mayor Brain further outlined the Tualatin River issues noting there was original effort with DEQ to address ways to clown up the River. He questioned how this would affect sanitary and storm sewer utility disposal and the whole rates ? i' issue for the City of Tigard. Mayor Brian further stated that this was an issue the City of Tigard needed to participate in Page 1 — COUNCIL MINUTES — SEPTEMBER 28, 1987 1 t early on in the process. He suggested that the Committee may wish to determine who the players in this study would be, yet up to speed un the issues and monitor the process with a periodic report back to Council. The consensus was that the Committee would not take any active role at this time in the Tualatin River issue. Further discussion followed regarding the length of franchise contracts. Consensus was to shorten the terms of those contracts when they came up for review for modification. Councilor Eadon commented that the Cable TV franchise was an area that she and the City Administrator had been monitoring.

Chief of Police reported additional information regarding the parking on September 25th. He stated the school allowed parking on the soccer fields for• about 300 cars and that no one used the Cook Park parking arcaa.

Mayor Brian stated that an ordinance proposed to relieve part of the parking problem in the area would be presented under Non—Agenda Items.

Mayor Brian commented that Councilor Eadon and he were not present at the Public Hearing of August 10, 1987. Ne stated they had read all of the written material available to them and were familiar with the proposal and issues and would continue participating in the matter-. C. There were no declarations or challenges by Council . d. City Attorney commented that this was a continuation of a previous hearing conducted to hear testimony from the property owners . This stage of the hearing process would include a response to that testimony from the City --taff which was provided to the Councilin writing. The City Attorney recapped the following: o The hearing process was requo-sted by City staff and property owners in the area for an opportunity to describe to the Council why theCity should proceed or not proceed with the L.TD process . o The Tigard Municipal Code allows t:he opportunity, upon a remand from the Court, to either make_ amendments to the.. E:nginevr•' s Report and proceed with an LID or to halt the process . o At the end of the proceedings of the meeting, staff would be looking for direction from the Council. This would be by way of a motion to either halt the process or direct staff to proceed to schedule a hearing and do the necessary work to proceed under Lhe Tigard Municipal Code with an amended Engineer' s Report. 1 o Testimony had been received from property owners. The City Engineer had provided the Council with a written response on substantive issues and was present at the mpot-ing to answer questions by the Council. o City Attorney provided Council (included in Council packet for { 9/28/87 meeting) with a memorandum dated September 25, 1987 concerning legal matters. Highlights of this memo were: there was no legal impediment to proceeding further; there were a number of policy and fairness questions raised which would be for € Council to decide; and none of the legal issues precluded Council i from proceeding with the project. Many of the issues had been briefed extensively in the previous litigation on this matter; those issues and exhibits from the previous litigation documents were included as part of the September 25, 1987 memorandum from the City Attorney's office. Page 4 — COUNCIL MINUTES — SEPTEMBER 26, 1987 o Legal Counsel advised Council that an issue was raised -about whether bids must be received before proceeding. The language which was cited had been removed from the Tigard Municipal Code; therefore, this should no longer be at issue. o Legal Counsel further noted an issue raised was with the removal of four property owners from the assessment area and subsequent allegation that this was improper. He advised the courts tend to review this decision based upon an arbitrary standard. If the Council were to accept the testimony of the property owners in the record about why they should, in fairness, be removed then this should be sufficient as a basis for removing them if the t Council so desires. On the other hand, if the Council reached a different conclusion basad upon the testimony of other property owners, than Council would have the power to include them back in the 1-10. o Legal Counsel summarized other claims as follows: o that the assessments were riot based on the benefit derived by each property owner; o that property owners should not be assessed the total cost of the project; o the discussion of economic negative impacts; and o that property owners outside the assessment district would benefit as developmentoccurs. lie noted that: all of the claims were issues that relate to the assessments. Those assessment questions would be subject to the same legal standard; i .e. , did Council act arbitrarily. This would be dependant upon whether there was a rationale in the record. If Council accepts some of the testimony about why these things should be as indicated in the Staff Report, Council. would have a reasonable basis for acting. These should riot be r considered legal roadblocks to taking further action. P o In the original Engineer's Report there was a provision for purchase of the property by the public and subsequent transfer to Domer Williams. This provision was taken out and is not in the current draft Engineer's Report. Based upon the written testimony received by Council, something should be inserted in the Staff Report calling for public ownership of the disputed portion of ground. The City has been unable to receive an assurance from the Martin family that the property would be available for public access; clearly, there is a need for some public action to be taken to ensure access to the road. o Legal Counsel also stated another allegation was that the assessment against the Martin property or property acquired from f the Martins through condemnation would not be appropriate. The citation provided by Council for the Martins was to a Florida case. City' s Legal Counsel did not read, or interpret, the case r the same way the Martin Counsel did. City Attorney noted there was a 1960 Oregon case which would hold to the contrary. This case would indicate that the City Council has authority to assess ; based upon the recommendation in the Engineer's Report. Page 5 — COUNCIL MINUTES — SEPTEMBER 28, 1987 i o Legal Counsel advised it would be the Council's option whether or not to take additional testimony from the property owners at this meeting. o Legal Counsel noted that he was provided with a letter dated 9/28/87 from Martin Legal Counsel addressing the preliminary draft of the access permit from the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) and the 9/18/87 memorandum from the City Engineer. ODOT provided the City with a preliminary draft of the access permit. He noted this issue and the issues surrounding the permit become relevant in the event the City Council decides to proceed further. City Attorney recommended that if the City Council determines to proceed further at the close of the hearing, with an additional hearing and continue with the LID, than at that point the issues with ODOT would have to be resolved before a final decision was made. e. Public Testimony. Mayor Brian requested the City Recorder read into record any letters received: o Letter to Mr . Thomas Schwab, Or�r..gon Department of Transportation, dated September 2.1, 1987, signod by Douglas V. Van Dyk. Attached to the letter was an August 26, 1987 latter to Gordon S. Martin from Elizabeth Newton. o Letter from John C. Savory, dated September 17, 1987, directed to Mayor Tom Brian. In this letter, the members of the Tigard Economic Development Committee expressed their support of the project and requested it be started post—histo. Proponents OEM o Robert D. Randall, Robert Randall Company, 9!>00 S.W. Barbur Nam Boulevard, Portland, Oregon 97219. Mr. Rand-all testified he was one of the landowners in the vicinity of the proposed LTU, He noted that several years and many meetings ago, a plan for the development of Dartmouth Street, supported by the majority of landowners, was adopted. It was passed and adopted by the Tigard Planning Commission and Tigard City Council. Subsequently, one objector, only one landowner, appealed the decision and successfully delayed the execution of the adopted plan for an extended period of time. Mr. Randall went on to say that the objector has brought up several -alternate considerations, all of which had neither a concrete source of funding nor a finite time frame. Mr. Randall stated further that the result of the years of delay was a great disservice to the landowners and the public who had paid for the urban services for the property and had not seen a return by the freedom to use their land in the manner that the Planning Department and the City Council had -already approved (i.e. economic development allowed with the construction of Dartmouth Street). Mr. Randall said that the Council had before it a plan that had the funding available and a finite time frame supported by a majority of the landowners. Mr . Randall requested the Council permit construction to proceed without further delay. Page 6 — COUNCIL MINUTES — SEPTEMBER 28, 1987 o Lou Christen, 17895 S.W. Shasta, Tualatin, Oregon. Mr. Christen stated he was a member of NPO #4. He testified that he and Mrs. Christen own approximately 10 acres in the triangle. He further said that the project was accepted by both the Planning Commission and Council three and a half year's ago. He testified that the delay in this project had cost his family $250,000 and urged the Council to consider the LID favorably. o Ann Thompson, 2.892. N.W. Buela Vista, Portland, Oregon, was present as Legal Counsel representing Horner G. Williams, was property owners for• approximately 27 acres within the project. Ms. Thompson noted that Council received a letter at the last hearing from Mr. Williams stating his full support of the project. Ms . Thompson said she was present to reiterate Lhat support and said they were in favor of the project moving forward as soon as possible. She further noted they had beun in support of the project for the entire period of litigation and appeals, and they remained in support. Opponents: o Charles D. Ruttan of the law firm of Dunn, Carney, Allen, Higgins & Tongue, 851 S.W. Sixth Avenue, Suite 1500, Portland, Oregon testified . Mr. Ruttan indicated the following individuals were also present: Doug Van Dyk, an associate in his office; Wayno Kittleson, a consulting engineer to the Martin family; and tho property owner Mr. Gurdon S. Martin. Mr. Ruttan noted that Council had received three volumos of // written testimony from them. He noted they had recoived i:ho City i, Engineer' s Engineering response however, they did riot agreo with his conclusions. Mr. Ruttan said Lhat his interpretation of the law differs from that of City's Legal Counsel . r Mr. Ruttan discussed the permit from the Oregon Department of Transportation which would be necessary if the Council decided to go forward. He said that this would be very relevant now in in the decision making process because he viewed it as an attempt of 4 a third party to evaluate a lot of the traffic information presented by the City . He said that his staff did riot put as much credibility with the ATEP report as the City had placod. Mr. Ruttan commented that the Oregon Department of Transportation has had the opportunity to evaluate the information presented by both sides. He stated that the draft of the agreement that OD( I would want the City to enter into placed significant restrictions on the amount of traffic which could be generated in the Triangle. lie said he stressed the Triangle because, although the local improvement district had definite boundaries, ODOT recognized that the traffic would be generated throughout the Triangle area Mr. Ruttan then used some maps he brought as visu ►1 aids for this portion of his comments. He said that ODOT has suggested that if a permit was to be issued for the road to connect to Highway 99W, there should be a restraint of no more than 4,900 trips being p igenerated within Triangle. He said that ODOT had scattered the 6 outbound trips around to the different streets. He discussed through—traffic vs. traffic generated within the LID area. Page 7 — COUNCIL MINUTES — SEPTEMBER 28, 1987 ! Mr. Ruttan posed the question with regard to how much development it would take in the Triangle to reach the limitation imposed by the State if the permit was obtained. He showed where he thought office and retail development would occur. He then stated that if the area develops as he predicted, the State would limit development after approximately 14 acres in the Triangle were developed. Mr. Ruttan commented that the Martins had spent an "awful lot of money" in carrying out what the!1 believe are some very valid concerns for, both themselves and for the City with the LTU. He noted concerns as related to his client's property regarding how one would enforce the kind of restraint that ODOT has suggested. He also questioned whether the City wanted the State telling them where to cut development off in the area. He stated this would be a direct result of having a conditioned permit. tie further noted that: he thought the issue supported the idea, as did his 9/21/87 letter that there were significant differences in opinion as to how much traffic was going to be generated. Not only in the local improvement district, but within the Triangle. Mr. Ruttan further noted the difference.: of opinion amongst the professionals by expanding on the Code changes with language being removed. He stated he thought there was a legal issue as to whetho r the language, even though it had been removed, still applied to the LID since this district: was started at the time that .language was part of the Code. Mr. Ruttan advised Council that, the i..ID participants were being asked to pay fur a road which would serve the whole Triangle area. He suggested the L.ID boundaries be enlarged . lie urged Council to halt the LTD at this Lime noting it was premature in light of the ODOT permit information. He further noted that the design and funding for the southerly access to 72nd Avenue was not currently addressed. He noted how critical the south access was to the Triangle for it to develop. f. Mayor asked if there were any other parsons present who wished to speak who did not have the opportunity to sign up. There were none. g. Mayor asked for Council questions and comments. o Councilor Johnson referred to a point brought up by Mr. Ruttan, that ODOT was talking about restricting to 4,900 trips in the Triangle. She asked if City Enginper had this same information. City Engineer responded that Mr. Ruttan was referring to a draft of an agreement between the Oregon Department of Transportation and the City for access to 99W. The City had just received the draft and staff had not reviewed it in detail. He further noted it was only in draft now. Councilor Johnson asked if that would be the restriction of trips allowed as the intersection was developed and how that might alter with future development or expansion of the intersection. City Engineer responded that he did not believe it was finite number, but would represent a trigger point that certain improvements woilld have j to be accomplished before the traffic volumes increased beyond that point. Mayor Brian also commented this could mean widening or Page 8 — COUNCIL MINUTES — SEPTEMBER 28, 1987 i intersection improvement would need to occur when those traffic levels were reached. City Engineer said he believed that this was specifically related to more planning for the additional access which _ had been discussed. ' Councilor Johnson then stated that Council may not need to look at the draft number as an absolute ceiling but, rather', the next point some additional improvements would be required. City Engineer affirmed this was an accurate observation. o Mr. Ruttan commented that this was draft language. He said the City Engineer was correct. He said 4,900 trips was a maximum. Mr. Ruttan observed that the State was taking the position the City's existing Transportation Plan was riot adequate and would need to be revised by 1988. o Legal Counsel commented that: whether or riot the City built the LID, that situation with the transports,,ion plan would exist. The premise being offered by Mr. Ruttan was that the LID imp-ovement was not the ultimate improvement to completely service the entire Triangle. He said that one argument offered by Mr. Ruttan was that because it is riot the ulLimate improvement the City should wait until there was further study about what: the improvement would be. City Attorney said this would be a judgment for the Council to make arod this would riot be a legal impediment to proceeding. h. Public Hearing Closed . i . 1,onsider•ation by Council. : o Mayor outlined Lhe options were: - decide rust to proceed further; or- - r- direct staff to bring forward an ordinance, set an additional public hearing to amend the Engineer's Report and consider proceeding on the amended project. j . Motion by Councilor- Eadon, seconded by Councilor- Johnson, to instruct staff Lo !tet- a hearing date to amend the Engineer' s Report and consider proceeding with an amended project. o Councilor Johnson commented on the fact that the information presented to the Council was thorough. She acknowledged appreciation for the considerations raised by Mr. Martin and his Counsel. She said she had given each of the challenges due consideration and that her foremost interest was to help all of the property owners within the LID to move forward so they could experience development. o Mayor Brian commented that the ODOT restrictions were the newest information and most recent concern raised. However, this would not restrict the Council from setting the hearing and then, at that hearing, the Council could decide not to go forward if it was determined that the ODO restrictions are not compatible with what the City would want. n the meantime, the City could work i to understand the restriction better and then consider during the comments at the next public hearing. Page 9 - COUNCIL MINUTES - SEPTEMBER 28, 1987 o Councilor Edwards commented on the information contained in both the City Engineer's report as well as information from Mr. Martin's Counsel. Councilor Edwards rioted that valid points, both pro and con, were contained in Mr. Ruttan's prepared f material. He said that the Council should go ahead with the project as it was presented. If there was some obstacle apparent later in the process, then at that time, the City could modify or cease the project. o Councilor Schwartz said he agreed with what had been said by the Council members to this point. He said the City had to start somewhere in working toward the final goal. He commented that the City' s goal in the end does not appear to be that much different from what had been stated by the Martin representatives all along. The south access and some of the other areas would be addressed as development occurs; and therefore, he said he would support the motion made. Once all of the information from ODOT was received, then the Council would have the opportunity to reconsider the information. Motion passed by a unanimous vote of Council present. k. City Administrator advised Council that the staff would notify the affected parties of the next hearing date on this matter with notification in the paper as well. DEVELOPMENT SERVICES MANAGER ARRIVED 8:35 PM. 8. IRVINGTON MOORE TEMPORARY USE DISCUSSION a. Community Development Director stated that Irvington Moore requested an extended use of two mobile office buildings at the Council Meeting of 9/14/87. At that time Council directed staff to bring back information on the item with suggestiuns for• alternatives. Community Development Director further stated that the following alternatives would be available: 1. Direct staff and Irvington Moore to prepare a temporary use extension and variance application to allow more than one time extension of one year; 2. Direct staff to only process a temporary use extension for the second office established last year; or 3. Direct staff to work with the applicant to establish the office(s) permanently and to process the necessary permits. b. Gary Hogue, General Manager for Irvington Moore, 8205 SW Hunziker, stated the Building Official had visited the site and recommended the permit process. He requested a reasonable time extension to the temporary uses to allow him to obtain the necessary permits and for the foundation to be in place. C. Community Development Director recommended a 60 day extension which would allow Mr. Hogue time to obtain permits and complete foundation work. i Page 10 — COUNCIL MINUTES — SEPTEMBER 28, 1987 i J 11 . d. Motion by Councilor Edwards, seconded by Councilor Eadon to continue the temporary uses for Irvington Moore for 60 days. / Approved by unanimous vote of Council present. t' 9. WESTWOOD CONDITION OF DEVELOPMENT REVIEW -- TIGARD TOWNE SQUARE a. Community Development Director synopsized a brief history of the request to date rioting that staff was working under Council direction to regarding improvement of a culvert on 113th Avenue to be in place prior to paving the Westwood Construction site. He then introduced the Development Services Manager noting that he was the staff coordinator for the project who had been providing weekly updates to Council regarding the status of the work. b. Mr. Steve Ward, a Civil Engineer, and Mr. Jer•r•y Foy, the Director• of Development Projects for Westwood Corporation, appeared before the Council synopsized the history of the project and highlighted specifics on the traffic concerns and sensitive lands issues . Mr. Ward noted the project w-is very complex and that to date they had received all permits and conformed to all requirements. lie advised Council that Durham Road would be closed October 7th through October- 14th. Hcy further noted he had notified both the City of Tigard and the Tigard School Dist:r•ict; to eliminate as many problems as possible with this cl.osur•e. I Mr. Ward then advised Council tho issue surrounding the 113th culvert and paving of the project site was still a concern. He discussed the impacts of riot paving this site prior• to the culvert placement. lie i stated the following bene=fits would be realized if paving were allowed prior to the culvert being in place. 1. Elimination of siltation in drainage way from parking lot to down stream properties. 2. All streets would be kept clean of mud and debris created by construction traffic. 3 . It would -allow access across site during Durham Road closure. 4. It would also allow for hatter control of storm water run off by on-site collection systems. 5. It would help prevent free flow run off across site to the neighboring properties. 6. Further, it should prevent contamination of rock ba-,,e already on the site for the parking areas. Mr. Ward further advised Council that Fie had began working on the g culvert problem on June 4th and that due to problems in getting access onto the properties in the area he was unable to complete his survey work until very recently. He advised that he would be able to submit through Washington County for a permit for the culvert by September 30th. Mr. Ward further stated that the permit approval process would then take four to six weeks. He estimated paving the site would raise the water level at the culvert site about 2 1/2 ; inches and again noted the greater benefit due to the time of the construction year and pending rains to pave at this point instead of waiting for the culvert to be in place. Page 11 — COUNCIL MINUTES — SEPTEMBER 28, 1987 i Mr. Jerry Foy addressed the serious consequences of not paving before the heavy rains came rioting the siltation to down stream properties as being the most serious. i C. Lengthy discussion followed regarding the process used in negotiating with down stream neighbors, timing of the permits, and pros and cons of modifying the paving requirements. Council and staff discussed the DEQ suggestions for the oil sand separator. City Engineer stated that the culvert currently at 113th Avenue was under- sized and that paving would riot mean flooding the homes in the area. Development Services Manager supported the benefits highlighted by Steve Ward stating it was an accurate assessment of the issue. Discussion followed regarding the plumbing code requirements versus DEQ suggestions on the oil and run off down stream issue. Discussion followed regarding the cleaning and maintenance of that system and the plantings that were to also help with the oil/sand issue. After lengthy discussion Councilor Johnson requested City staff to keep Council advised on a weekly basis and contact City Council prior to the issuance of any additional building permits. d. Motion by Councilor, Johnson, seconded by Councilor- Edwards to vary the staff report by approving the paving poraiiL. Councilor- Johnson stated that no further building permits should be issued until the permit for the culvert was received from Wiish.ington County and bond posted. e. Mr. Jerry Foy requested building permits for- shops A and B be + approved for issuance prior to the receipt )r a culvor•t permit since the foundations were all ready approved this would riot incroase the impervious surface. Councilor Edwards expressed concern regarding addition building permits being approved . f. Motion by Councilor Edwards, seconded by Councilor Eadon to amend the original motion, to include the condition that no further building permits be issued until the culvert permit was received arid bond posted. After further discussion, the motion to amend was denied by a 2-•-3 vote of Council present. Mayor Brian and Councilors Johnson and Schwartz voting nay. g. Motion by Councilor Schwartz, seconded by Councilor Johnson to amend the original motion to include a ban on all building permits with the exception of buildings A and B. Motion approved by a 3-2 majority vote of Council present. Councilors Eadon and Edwards voting nay. The motion to allow paving of the site with the amendment to include a ban on all of building permits with the exception of buildings of A and B was approved by a 3-2 majority vote of Council present. ( Councilors Eadon and Edwards voting nay. Page 12 — COUNCIL MINUTES — SEPTEMBER 28, 1987 10. TIGARD MUNICIPAL CODE AMENDMENT - THEFT II & III. a.

Chief of Police highlighted the high school parking concerns notint3 that there was concern for• the safety needs of the residents during the day light commuter hours and also concerns with the special event use during the evenings and weekends. He advised Council t:her•e existed a 24-hour, seven day a week, parking ban currently on the west side of 92nd Avenue. He suggested an ordinance be considered for adoption which would change this to a 12-hour• parking ban from 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM Monday through Friday. b. Sue Kasson, 16282 SW 93rd Avenue, stated the rosidents had received short notice of the consideration of this ordinance and were unable to appear. She continued by noting concerns from the neighborhood r•ega.rding the safety for residents exiting onto 92nd Avenue from neighborhood streets. She advised Council that the neighbors she had talked with were opposed to this change, due to the safety issues. She also noted that the neighborhood was glad to have the no parking signs covered during home football games since there was heavy Po] ica coverage in the neighborhood during those times. C. Marrene Jenkins, 16465 SW 93rd Avenue, stated the original study, done approximately one year ago with the neighbors, was still valid and that the safety concerns were still upper• most in the minds of the neighbors. She opposed the modification to the no parking ban along 92nd Avenue. She further staged the change would send a double message to the high school students, that it was permissible for adults to N. •k there during special events, but riot for students during the day. d. Jean Perrin, 16585 SW 92nd Avenue, praised the efforts of the Police Department during the 9/25/87 football game. She noted her opposition to the change proposed based on safety issues. e. Kenneth Scheckla, 10890 `;W Fairhaven, stated the citizens should have realized the potential problems with special events at the high school prior to purchasing their homes. Page 13 - COUNCIL MINUTES - SEPTEMBER 28, 1987 i f. After lengthy discussion, consensus of 3 members of the Council was to allow the covering of the no parking signs during the 10/2/87 home football game and to discuss the issue further with the Tigard School District Board. Councilor Eadon and Edwards voiced concern regarding the double message and could not support the covering of parking signs during any special event. 11 .2 PHONE SYSTEM REPORT a. Community Services Director and office Services Manager presented the phone system recommendation and answered questions posed by the Council. b.

The OPEU agreement was ratified arid implemented with retro active pay . we still have a few bugs to work out in the area of medical insurance; F10Wev(?r', all else has gont? :.moothly. Several issues remain unclear in implementing the TPOA arbitration. Significiint tim(, was spent this month trying to resolve those issues. At this poi it it appears we' ll bo roquest:ing an arbitrator's help in clarifying those issues. The Court Study is proceeding. Most of the data has been gathered; comprehensive analysis and alternative development will occur the first work in October•. Position vacancies in the department have slowed down progress in this study. FINANCF The month of August: was again a busy one for Accounting and Finance. In order to keep the cost of the Annual Audit. to a minimum, our staff prepares a man substantial number of workpapers for the auditors use. The majority of the month was spent making year end adjustments and journal entries and finishing up reconciliations and account analysis for the year end closing of the financial records. The Auditors arrived on August 24, 1987 and expect to complete field work by September 11, 1987. CITY RECORDER SECTION The unexpected resignation of the Records Clerk has impacted the entire division. It' s been compounded by vacations and has required the division's managers to cover the court desk, research records requests, and handle the Town Hall set—up and tear—down functions. Annexations will continue to be a major focus with final action on the islands and NE Metzger. The Court Study, Phone Study, Records Study, and the Dictation System Study has been ongoing during this time. There were approximately 8,000 copies processed for the August 10 and 31 Council meetings. t MEN Community Services Monthly Report Page 2 RECORDS SECTION August was a difficult month in Records. The absence of a records clerk left that section short handed. Records requests are being processed, although not as quickly as when the clerk was here. Daily filing and records reorganization has stopped completely. Someone should be on staff by the end of September. COURT SECTION In Court, the number of traffic cites filed in August were up significantly. There were 455 traffic cites filed, compared to 360 last month and 294 filed in August of 1986. Office services provided a bailiff on court days . Judge Pelay's wife is still in the hospital recovering from heart surgery. As a result, Judge Pelay was unable to serve a couple days in August. (At the time of this writing it is now known she is deceased. ) Ken Bourne filled in during his absence. Nancy Campbell will preside over the jury trial scheduled in September. OFFICE SERVICES —Word proce.ssirig's turn around Lurie incr at;vd sican.ificant.:ly during August by 2.7 hours per work order to 6.4 hours. Many large projects, i .e. , the Developmont Coda, Park Plan, and 131.)th llf) mra.iling p]us sumo staff changes contributed to the diffor•enco. Word Processing reoryanized all the permanent documenLs on specific diskettes and created a deletion library and are now able to maintain a higher level of accuracy in filing and also decr•easo the time spent on this process. Considerable time is now being spent on enhancing telephone techniques and becoming more familiar with job tasks for, staff members throughout the City. This will assist in forwarding calls to correct persons in a timely fashion. Once again, the number of calls processed were slightly higher this month. Job tasks and many of the previous confusions have been resolved. dc: 1446p/0015p 1 8 s i; t E a t kr i COMMUNI:-(Y SERVICES DE:PARIMENT WORK MEASURES (� JULY, 1987 ACCOUNTS PAYABLE: 8/86 8/87 SEWER: 8/86 8/87 Accounts Payable Checks: 3943 414 Sewer bills sent out 5217 5980 Vendors 877 763 Sewer- payments 2653 5021 Invoices 525 464 Phone calls 188 272 Check requests 378 198 lreasur•er's Receipts 864 720 Payroll checks 287 2112 New Customer & Add. chg. 446 327 and Adjustments _8/SG 8/87 Expenditure Reimbursements Processed 83 19 Purchase Orders Processed 295 104 RECORDER'S OFFICE 8/86 8/87 Resolutions processod 98 115 Ordinances procossod 43 49 OFFICE SERVICES 8/86 8/87 Number of Work Orders 230 582 Number of Pages 6875 19,765 Average Turn--Around rime Per Work Order- 8.75 5.3 hrs PERSONNEL 8/86 8/87 Recruitments 1 4 Hires 5 6 Terminations 1 2 Unemployment Claims 0 0 Claims Filed: Worker's Compensation 3 0 Other Liability 1 1 1446p/0015p 08/01/87 C CITY OF TIGARD CLAIM STATUS REPORT DATE OF LOSS CLAIMANT DESCRIPTION STATUS 2/04/85 Fredric Nickel Criminal counter cp1t. open (Officer tial Merrill) 01/11/85 Harry Field Alleges False Arrest perid irig (Office Merrill) 07/2.0/85 Steven Bacon False Arrest (Officer Har-burg) claim reopened 03/16/85 JL111e B.

Sully 1640 S.W. Broadway Drive Portland, Oregon 97201 EDUCATION• Planning, Public Policy and Management University of Oregon M.S./Public Affairs January 1981 - December 1982 Public administration concentration. Courses included: - Public Policy Analysis - Public Financial Management - Affirmative Action - Organizational Planning - Cutback Mangement EXPERIENCE AND TRAINING Public Personnel Administration: Personnel Analyst City of Beaverton 4755 S.W. Griffith Drive Beaverton, Oregon 97076 March 1985 - Present City of Eugene 777 Pearl Street Eugene, Oregon 97401 Staff Assistant - Personnel 1/83 - 2/84 Student Intern - Personnel 10/81 - 12/82 Page 2 - Resume Janice Sully Wage and Salary Administration: Upon hire at the City of Beaverton, my primary responsibility was to conduct a classification study. I reviewed 47 classifications in the Oregon Public Employees bargaining unit. The study included sending out position description questionaires to all employees in the unit, interviewing employees upon completion of the position description questionnaire, interviewing supervisors and department heads about classifications in question, :rewriting all of the classifications in the OPEU bargaining unit as well as others in the City, and ultimately reclassifying 14 of the 47. In reclassifying the 14 I conducted salary and classification surveys of comparable City's, negotiated changes with the union, and formally presented my findings to the Mayor and to the union. Since conducting the OPEU Classification study, evaluating positions and writing ,job descriptions has been anongooing responsibility.tivealsobarconduct salary surveys for classification purposes ng purposes. Labor Negotiations and Administration of Labor Contracts: As the professional staff assistant to the Personnel Director at the City of Beaverton, I have responsibility for a wide range of labor relations activities. This range runs from answering questions from employees and managers about the contracts to sitting at the negotiating table, although I have not served as the Chief Negotiator. I have handled a number of grievances from start to finish. This work includes investigating the issue at hand, researching similar cases, interviewing related personnel, and working closely with the union representatives. I have also done preparation work for arbitration although to date, the grievances have been resolved prior to going to arbitration. During contract negotiations in 1986, I researched and wrote contract language for the City's proposals. Personnel Policy and Procedures Development and Administration: At the City of Beaverton I have ongoing responsibilities for researching and writing new personnel policies and procedures as well as revising existing policies and procedures. The key element in policy development has been involving the department heads to ensure that the policies, as written, are practical in their administration. I also answer employee questions about policies and procedures on an ongoing basis. Most recently I have written new Leave of Absence, Employee as Independent Contractors, and Employee Recognition policies. t Page 3 - Resume Janice Sully At the City of Eugene, I had the responsibility of rewriting the employee handbook. This involved coordinating a lot of information from various sources and writing the material for all levels of understanding. There was considerable opposition to the creation of a handbook by the unions who felt that it conflicted with their agreements so I spent quite a bit of my time working through the conflict. I also was a resource to employees on general personnel policy and procedure questions. Employee Benefits Administration/EAPs: At the City of Beaverton, I do not have formal responsibility for benefit administration but as expected in a smaller organization, I answer questions from employees about benefits so am familiar with all aspects of our employee benefits. I also assist the Personnel Director with plan administration and claims analysis for our annual renewals. I am in the process of writing a Request for Proposal for our deferred comp program. From January to March of 1987 I served as the City spokesperson on a labor management committee working on cost containment features for our indemnity plan. We "negotiated" a cost containment program rather than transfer costs to employee for medical insurance. I worked closely with our agent of record and Blue Cross in preparation for the meetings and more recently to educate employees about the changes in their plan. At the City of Eugene, I was responsible for disseminating information to employees regarding all of their benefits. I conducted new employee orientation, coordinated health and deferred comp open enrollment, and worked with our insurance consultant on all matters related to our insurance benefits. I also planned and conducted a Pre-Retirement workshop for City employees. This program has been ongoing since its creation. My responsibilites at the City of Eugene and the City of Beaverton with Employee Assistance programs has been to provide referrals and information to employees. At the City of Beaverton, the program was disbanded not long after I arrived so I have not had to deal with an EAP but am very familiar with EAPs and current literature on these programs. EEO/Affirmative Action: I was the staff liaison to the Affirmative Action Task force for the City of Eugene from January through May 1981. This responsibility included the collection and analysis of workforce statistics and reporting this data as required. My Master's thesis was the product of an affirmative action outreach to women in non-traditional jobs and women in management at the City of Eugene. The City was interested in understanding the concerns of working women in general and specifically women in these two categories. I conducted the study and reported my findings in my thesis. This was formally presented to executive managers at the City of Eugene. Page 4 - Resume Janice Sully Recruitment and Selection: I have current responsibilites at the City of Beaverton for working with departments on recruitment and selection of new employees. This includes writing job descriptions, position announcements, and ads. I screen applications and interview candidates. Some of my project work has involved developing new testing procedures for fire promotional exams which was successfully completed last month. At the City of Eugene I conducted test validation on police entrance exams. This involved researching all aspects of testing and working with testing services to determine the City's own process. I delivered test validation information to supervisors and to the Willamette Valley Affirmative Action Association Safety and Risk Mana ement: I have working knowledge of both safety and risk management but do not Have formal responsibility for these functions. My understanding of the risk management function evolves from working with employee benefits. Worker's comp is handled by our Finance Dept. so I have not had to work with this aspect of risk management. CITY OF TIGARD.,_qREgOLN COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY AGENDA OF: -...

INFORMATION SUMMARY The existing Personnel Policies arid Procedures Manual (formerly called Personnel Rules) was adopted by the City Council in the 1,itv 1970's. Since that time, it has been subject to only minor• revisions. Much of the language in the Manual is duplicated in the collective bargaining agreements bot-ween the city and the two unions representing city employees and in some cases the language in the manual is in conflict with the language in the collective bargaining agreements. The adoption of those three separate documents is intendod to roplace the existing Personnel Rules. Tho-io documents are: 1 . City Council Policies Those policies related to personnel administration which have been for•ma11y adopted by the City Council , 2. Administr•ativo Proc-ouurvs - The rulos grid procedure:: needed Lo implomont the policies of the City Council or- to amplify or c.lar•.ify those areas of personnel administ.r•ation which aro pr•oper'ly not addressed in the City Council policies. 3 . Personnel Policies f or M,,inagemont Supervisory, Professional , and Confidential Employees - Those policies applicable to employees who .are not included in one of the City' s reciignized collective bargaining units and which are specific only to that particular group of employees . Bar-gaining unit review of these Policies and Pr•ocedur'es is occurring at. this time. ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED 1 . Continue the "Manual" system used previously which requires reworking of the entire Manual when updates or revisions are needed. 2. Simultaneously r•e--organize into an easy to update format and update the information to bring it in to compliance with cur•r'ent state and federal laws and cur-rent City Council and City Administration thinking. FISCAL IMPACT There ar•e no changes included which will result in additional costs to the City.

Because we were able to reduce central WCCLS costs and thereby increase the reimbursement shares to member libraries, our total allocation will be $215,000 this year and the next. These funds are based on the levy that's just passed; they are firm. They are dedicated to Library purposes. I would like to propose that the Council adopt a modification to the Library Budget this fiscal year that would allow the purchase of workroom shelving at $23,000. This will necessitate a cash advance out of the general fund cash flow to allow this expenditure to occur now. In the past, City Council has encouraged that in these kinds of situations the funds be used for capital outlay rather than programs or staffing services which have multi-year cost implications. The need for the shelving is paramount. This area was held below its space needs (reduced from 1,500 sq. ft. to 1,000 sq. ft.) in the space allocations under the Civic Center plan. It is a very cramped and poor productive space. The limited number of work stations means tight scheduling between volunteers and staff, often resulting in staff not being able to manage their work flow effectively and/or volunteers leaving because of the crowding. The present storage area is insufficient and impossible to keep organized. Many items which should be shelved are kept around the work stations. Things are always getting lost because we don't have a place for everything and everything in its place. This proposed shelving will increase storage area by 145% and yield floor space for at least two more work stations. When planning the workroom the decision was made to use only shelves and furnishings on hand because we weren't sure just how the area would work inasmuch as a workroom would be a new experience for everyone. This was a fortuitous decision because L i the shelving has been moved once; all work stations have been moved at least once; some twice; one work area has undergone three major changes. However, even though we now have it arranged for the best possible work flow, the crowding and insuffi- cient storage remain as impediments to top productivity and utilization of the space. I am proposing as the first step in remedying the problems of the workroom that a Spacesaver shelving system be installed. Attached to this memorandum is a proposal from Spacesaver Specialists for the Library workroom. This is the same company that installed shelving in the City Hall Records Room last year and will be adding to that project this year. low - r MEMORANDUM - September 16, 1987 -- page I am requesting that under LCRB 110.085 that Spacesaver Specialists be designated as the single seller for the Library workroom shelves. First, I believe it is prudent to buy a system which is compatible with the existing city system. This system has proved very satisfactory justifying the addition being made to the Records Room. This system is mobile and should the need arise, the Records Room and the Library Workroom systems could be combined or interchanged in varied ways. The system is also changeable in its configuration. Second, this system allows for usage of nearly all the metal shelving now being used. This represents a savings (at today's price ) of $3,975. Third, I have reviewed the bids submitted for the Records Room shelving last year. Spacesaver's was the lowest bid received from qualified vendors who submitted complete bids. Mr. Rautenkranz has indicated that they have quoted the new Records Room addition at a profit margin reduced 1% from the margin used to compute the bid on the original system last year. In pricing the Library system they have reduced that original com- petitive margin by 1}7. Fourth, a combined service contract with a local source for the two systems should result not only in dollar savings but in better response time as well as quality service. In consideration of the above, should City Council approve the proposal for purchase of Library Workroom shelving, I recommend that City Council designate Spacesaver Specialists, 10200 SW Nimbus Avenue, Suite G-1, Portland, Oregon, 97223 as the single seller under LCRB 1110.085.

In June of this year, you awarded a purchase order to us for additional Spacesaver equipment to complement the existing system in your Records Room. In order to ensure the competetive nature of pricing, that system was quoted at a profit margin reduced It from the margin used to compute our original competetive bid for the first system. In the picing of the Spacesaver system for the Library now before you, we have reduced that original competetive margin by 1 1/28. We also are able to receive two separate orders from you - one for the Spacesaver system per se, and one for the additional Wilson Bookstack shelving needed - to eliminate the concern *for non-bid - purchase limitations. Last February when Mr. Jeans and I discussed this upcoming business, he asked that I "keep my pencil sharp." I have done what I promised, and we have a good design, with tasteful reuse of most existing shelving components.

OLICY ISSUE Shall $24,878. 12 of the contingency fund be appropriated in order to expand the existing phone system to meet our needs immediately and for two to four years into the future? INFORMATION SUMMARY In a June workshop we discussed phone needs and possible expansion to our system. Several questions were raised at that time which indicated a need for additional data in order to propose an expansion package which would solve riot only our immediate needs but would also carry us through the next few years with anticipated growth. Following is the recommended expansion package which will car~r•y us from a capital investment standpoint through the next two Lo four years in addition to improving the quality and timeliness of phone service to our citizens and staff.

Continue within the existing phone capabilities which requires many incoming callers and staff to receive busy signals and slows down the City's ability to conduct daily business. 2. Expand the system in order to allow installation of additional lines and equipment to handle existing calls and monitor the system over time. FISCAL IMPACT $24,878.12 would need to be appropriated from the contingency fund for- this purpose. This need was identified in Budget Committee discussions; however, the decision was postponed pending additional information. SUGGESTED ACTION Staff recommends proceeding with Alternative #2 and pass contingency resolution. sb/2006W MEMORANDUM CITY OF TIGARD, OREGON TO: Loreen Wilson, City Recorder September 14, 1987 FROM: Sherrie Burbank, Office Services Manager ' SUBJECT: Phone Recommendations As you are aware the last several months have been devoted to gathering statistics and infcrmation in order to make a recommendation to Council regarding our phone system needs. 1 am continually fascinated with our system and feel it is appropriate to ask Council for an expansion .in order to further onhance the system' s capabilities and to provide a more efficient service to the public and staff. You have already received copies of the statistics, survey results, options to consider, and recommendations I prepared. This information was used in preparing the following recommendations. Item 1 : Ejystem Enhancement_ — I recommend the purchase of the expansion package for, system enhancement. This would cost the City 117,476.72. Without the expi+nsion package, we would riot be able to add enough trunk lines (three as recommended by GTE) to meet our everyday call volume. We have received numerous verbal complaints from citizens about the inability to reach City Nall during business hours. In line with this recommendation is the need for a second switchboard console to handle the increase in call volume due to additional lines. GTE suggests a second console when processing 400+ calls per day. As you know from our switchboard statistics we have averaged over 500 calls per day for the last- six months . Item 2: Library Alterations — Statistics were tabulated for the month of July in order to get an accurate assessment of the call volume in the Library. There has been significant concern regarding the processing of calls to the Library both during and after office hours. After working with Irene Ertell, I recommend conversion of the current business line in the Library to a "Direct—In—Lirie" which would bypass the main switchboard. In conjunction with the direct line, the system will be programmed to provide station hunting to predetermined extensions. The Direct—In—Line would allow free flow of calls from other libraries seeking information and also easy access for emergency calls. Statior hunting allows flexibility to Library Staff and an enhancement- in answering more than one call from the public at a given time. The total cost to meet the needs of the Library for the remainder of this fiscal year based on these options is $550.00. It should be noted that I have completed the programming for station (" hunting. It is working very well from the switchboard point of view. I have also touched basis with Irene since this programming change was made and she is pleased with the results. The amount of flexibility on the part of the library staff has been enhanced through this change. Item 3: Music On-Hold - For a minimal one-time cost of $150.00 we can add music on-hold to the system. The coy ': includes purchase of the radio and programming the equipment. It would eliminate the silence when a person is on hold. Providing we select the appropriate station and volume this can be a benefit- to the caller --- it could be utilized as a "relaxer" for. the person on hold. Also, it would prevent people thinking they were disconnected because they don't actually hear the phone ringing. Oftentimes a person will hang up and redial which increases switchboard traffic. Item 4: PW Yard Bell -- I recommend the purchase of a yard bell for the Shops. When employees are working in the yard before office hours it is impossible to hear the phone ringing inside. A ball would allow staff to know whether another assigned staff person was calling to indicate their inability to report to work in an emergency situation or inclement weather. Staff mint have access to this information immediately and cannot spend valuable time sitting in the office waiting for calls when they need to be preparing emergency equipment. Also, it is imperative staff r•eceivo any weather, updates during inclement weather. This would be a one--time cost of 110.00. Item 5: Night Bell Alterations - A one- time cost. of gb`.i�UO is needed to make a program change- for the night bell . We arc* currently receiving many business calls for inspections prior to 9:00 a.m, Repr•ogrammirig would allow one bell to ring at a specific extension to accoss these particular calls and the other bells would ring as they cur-rently du in both Community Services and Community Development. Item 6: Ropeater LPD Radius - A repeater line for Police radios is needed to eliminate "dead spots" in radio coverage which means better officer safety. With the contracting of dispatch services to other jurisdictions, it is imperative that the dispatchers be able to hear the identifying district number which is stated at the beg innirig of transmission. Therefore, it is recommonded that: a one-time installation cost of $558.00 plus a monthly charge of X9.30 be approved to make the requ.ir•ed improvement. Total cost fur the remainder of the fiscal year would b(? $1 , 192.00. Item 7: Ratepro - The5 334.00 cost (including a ane-year- warranty from the date of installation) for this call accounting and recording system would supply system management information which would allow staff to utilize existing equipment and make better quality decisions for future expansion needs. This equipment would allow us the means to provide necessary information to recommend changes which are supported by facts and figures. Not only will it help us with future growth, it will allow us to monitor overall usage of the system, i.e. , long distance calls, duration of calls, time of calls, etc. , and to educate staff as to appropriate calling methods. It would be helpful for staff to have the ability to allocate telephone costs to users in the future. In the meantime, this equipment would assist in identifying cost centers throughout the City. Please see the attached list of reports which are accessible through Ratepro. I contacted a Culver City, California, regarding their usage of similar equipment. This equipment has allowed them to more efficiently monitor usage of their telephone system and has resulted in a 23 percent decrease in their telephone phone bill. In May of 1985, staff- projections for staffing for the fiscal year 1990-91 was anticipated at 130 employees. July 1 of 1985 we were anticipating having 84 FTE. As you know we have experienced- such rapid growth in the last two years that we currently employ 132 employees. Not all of these employees have a telephone instrument on their desk, but access is still required to a certain degree. Since our staff increase is reflective of the citizen needs and community growth, we can expect overall telephone usage to be impacted proportionately. Therefore, we are now in need of enhancing our current system. The above recommendations are intended to meet the City's needs for the remaining fiscal year. Based on the anticipated growth reflected in the 5—Year Financial Plan, this telephone system enhancement should be adequate for two to four years. Some issues which could greatly impact our phone system include: staff needs, E-911 options, annexations, Court Study, and Community Development activities. In conclusion, I recommend a total enhancement package costing $24,878.12, for the remaining eight months of this fiscal year be presented to Council for approval. It should be noted *hat with this additional level of service the ongoing maintenance/service co.-ts will be $5,5Z.4-80 per year at the current GTE rates. 5b/2006W/0002W Recommended Expansion Package (based on remaining 8 months of FY): Item 1 f Cabinet and Materials $ 6,058.00 l 2 Trunk Cards (8 Additional Lines) 1,462.00 2 Single Line Cards (16 Extensions) 1,610.00 1 Multi—Line Card (8 Extensions) 664.00 Installation of 4 Trunk Lines 2,212.00 Second Switchboard Console 3,228.00 11 Single Line Telephones 1,391 .72 2 Multi—Line Telephones 851 .00 $17,476.72 Item 2 Library Alterations 550.00 Item 3 Music On—Hold 150.00 Item 4 PW Yard Bell 110.00 Item 5 Repeater (PD Radio) 1,192.40 Item 6 Night Bell Alterations 65.00 Item 7 Ratopro _ 5,334.00 GRAND TOTAL $24,878. 12 l TOTAL FOR FY 87-88 1X COST 1X COST MAINTENANCE/ MATERIALS INSTALLATIONx SERVICE Recommended Expansion Package: Item 1 Cabinet and Materials $ 5,499.00 .00 144.00 130 2 Trunk Cards (8 Additional Lines) 1,300.00 130.00 32.00 2 Single Line Cards (16 Extensions) 1,432.00 130.00 48.00 1 Multi—Line Card (8 Extensions) 583 .00 65.00 16.00 Installation of 4 Trunk Lines -- 260.00 1,952.00 Second Switchboard Console 2,856.00 260.00 112.00 11 Single Line Telephones 660.00 715.00 16.72 2 Multi—Line Telephones 770.00 65.00 16.00 13, 100.00 2,040.00 2,336.72 Item 2 Library Alterations — 70.00 480.00 Item 3 Music On—Hold 85.00 65.00 -- Item 4 PW Yard Bell45.00 6!3.00 Item 5 Night Bell Alterations -- 65.00 -- Item 6 Repeater (PD Radio) r>58.00 634 .40 f Item 7 !

The information provided is similar- to the informat.iun in Ill above with the exception that it provides totals only. There would bre a benefit to monitoring the information daily so that usage concern can be addressed in a more efficient manner. 5. Call Type Summary Report This is a breakdown of the specific types of calls made during a reporting period. The reporting periods can be established by the System Operator. This would allow the Operator to determine the most cost effective means for long distance calls which could result in researching different long distance carriers . 6. Trunk Summary Report This report assist in determining the total usage per trunk and if any trunks are out of service. This particular report would aid us in determining our future needs as they pertain to incoming and outgoing lines. In order to track long distance calls at the current time, it must be done by manually reviewing the monthly telephone bill. This is very time consuming. In fact I would estimate 16.5 hours is currently being devoted on a monthly basis in order to do an efficient job to collect data. The Ratepro can collect this data more efficiently and in a reporting format that would cut the necessary time by at least one—third if not one—half. sb/2006W/0002W INCOMING PHONE CALL BREAKDOWN 7/1/87 — 7/31/87 Average # Average It 7 of Call Division Calls/Week Calls/Day Volume City Administration 83 17 3 .8 CD Administration 100 2.0 4.5 Building 362 69 15.7 (A) Engineering 2.2.3 43 9.8 Planning 324 62 14 .2 (A) PW Operations 2.19 44 9.9 CAS Administration 97 19 4.4 Finance 211 43 9.6 Court 1f,3 244 6.6 City Recorder/Recnr•ds/Office Services 68 13 3 .0 Police 103 30 4 .'i (B) Libr•ar•y 188 38 8.5 (C) Miscellaneous 122 25 5.�> NOTES: (A) The heaviest ovE-- .411 usage of the phone system for- incoming coal is can be attributed to Community Development especially Building and Planning. } (B) Although the Police Department has direct lines, the switchboard still receives a large number of calls to be extended.

The Council authorized the staff to employ an independent auditing firm to conduct a study to determine what the cost of 9-1-1 service is and what portion of those costs should be paid by the City. The Council further directed the staff to enter into discussion with the Fire District and other cities receiving 9-1-1 services to see if a determination of these issues could be negotiated. To date, we have been able to hold only one joint meeting. T-7o other meetings have been canceled by the District. Further attempts to schedule meeting times will not serve the cities time table for resolution of the issue. We, therefore, intend to commission a study by an outside auditing firm. We would welcome the Fire Districts participation in this study. It is the intent of the City of Tigard that those governmental entities that share in the cost of the study would convene to define the scope and parameters of the study and receive the report of the auditing firm. The City has received cost estimates for a study from Cooper-Lybrand and Government Financial Services, Inc. that range from $3,500 to $8,000. We would anticipate the study costs to be nearer the 0,000 end. We would anticipate participating agencies to share costs on the following schedule, not to exceed: City of Tigard 3,000 City of Tualatin 2,000 Tualatin Fire District 2,000 City of Ring City 500 City of Sherwood 500 8,000 13125 SW Hall Blvd,P.O.Box 23397,Tigard,Oregon 97223 (503)639-4`171 ti Letter to Pittard Page 2 September 28, 1987 The general scope of the study would be to determine the base cost of providing fire dispatching, the marginal additional cost of providing primary PSAP basic 9-1-1 service and the cities share of those costs based on useage, population or some other factor.

Monahan, Director, Community Development SUBJECT: Streetlighting Policy Last April 1 presented to Council a number of issues related to strootlight policy. At Lhe time we were quesLioning how Lhe City should allocate funds to neighborhoods requesting sLreetlight:s. Given the knowledge that funds for streetlights are limited and may become more scarce, t:he City needs a priority system to apply. I am sugc:iestind the following policy : 1 . me City will pay for t:he maintenances and energy supplied to all City streetlights which are acceptable to l igard arid PGE-. as pare; of our• street and highway lighting program. Included in the system will be assumption by the City of costs associated with str•eetlight.ing districts within areas annexed to the City. 2. Excluded from at.ttometic absorption by the City ary individual lights which wore requested from PGF by private :individuals who have agreed to pay for energy costs themselves . Such lights will be evaluated by the palm City on an individual basis . Strootlights of this type which function as part of the stroetlighLing system, as determined by the City, can be accepted by the City. Those lights which do riot serve a public Purpose, but instead ar•e for, the benefit. of a pr•ivaLe property owner, will riot, become part of the City system. Costs of energizing remain with the consumer. 3. The City will evaluate Lhe need for additional. streetlights along roadways and at intersections. As funds permit, streetlights will be provided to correct deficiencies in corridor lighting. Priority will be given first to correcting deficiencies at intersections and along arterials and collector roads. Next: priority will be given to corridor needs on local roads. 4. Neighborhoods which do riot have adequate lighting will. be evaluated with City action guided by the following: A. Where streetlights exist in a neighborhood as part of the City system, but additional service is needed, the City will consider adding new lights to upgrade the neighborhood system to City standards, funds permitting. The capital cost will be paid by the City in addition to maintenance and energy. i Mill B When a neighborhood does riot have City streetlights, the City will assume responsibility for- maintenance and energy costs only if the property owners collectively request, by petition, that the City request that PGE install a complete lighting system, to City standard, with the capital cost of the poles and luminaires being borne by the neighborhood. The poles arid lights must be dedicated to the City prior to the City assuming the costs of maintenance and energy. The rationale behind this position is the City's long standing Policy that developers are responsible for- all costs related to the impact of their- development. Subdivisions which have no streetlights were developed either- in the City before the existing policy was adopted in 1969 or- in the County, The developer of the subdivisions was riot required to provide streetlights, therefore the cost was not passed on to the consumer. 5. Where new residential development occurs, the developer, is responsible for- bearing the cost of installing poles and luminaires U.-) sorve the area which he develops . The developer, also must deposit funds with the City sufficient to cover the cost of maintenance and enor•gi.zing such lighting faci.lit.ieas f(.)r• two ye,ar's (Section 3 .08.010 of the TMC, copy attached) . In summary, the Cit,y is r•(;sponsible for the cost of energizing the City streetlighting system. Any additions to the system will ho accepted only if tho City a ; ;url ; owrletsllip for- the poles arid luminair-es. Responsibility for the cost of the polos and luminaires rests with the developer, or-, in the case of existing neighborhoods which request new lights, with property owners, The City policy stated above will guide us as we evaluato e.dding str-ootl ights and str-eetlight districts to our, systell), Over* the next several months, the staff will review the other- elements of the system. We intend to evaluate the costs of the system and determine if changes should be made in (1) the City's ownership policy, (2) the type of luminaires used, (3) the type of poles required in new developments, and (4) the City' s position on under-grounding utilities. An analysis of costs will riot be valuable without consider-ing tho purpose of having a streetlight system. Therefore, the affect of streetlighting on traffic safety, security and crime prevention, pr•oper•ty values, and aesthetics will be considered. Our recommendation will also contain alternatives which will assist the Council in determining where streetlights ar-e needed in both a high and low level of service.

In 1985, a traffic engineering study was commissiartc,d by the Margins , That: study raised questions .about tho adequacy of the City's Comprehensive Plan study r-ai-. (,d Map. As a rasult, the Ore(jun Department: of Tr-ansportation (ODOT) requested that, the City provide additional traffic engineering analyses to show that: Lho comprehensive plan transportation ntap provided adequate internal circulation within the Tigard Triangle and that the resulting traffic, would not overload the adjoining State highways. In late 1985, the City retained Associated Transportation Engineering arid Planning, Inc. (ATEP) to prepare the traffic engineering report as requested by ODOT. The ATEP study was closely coordinai:ed with ODOT. ODOT and the Metropolitan Service District provided regional transportation arid traffic analysis which were adopted into the ATEP report. In addition, the Margins and their traffic engineer provided a great deal of input regarding various assumptions used in preparing the ATEP report; this data was considered by ATEP and ODOT. The ATEP report concludes that: the existing comprehensive plan does provide a street system adequate to accommodate the traffic volumes which we can expect from development of trie Triangle in accordance with the comprehensive plan. The report does, however, recommend Lhat an additional roadway access to the Triangle be created. The report recommends that determination of the appropriate route for this additional access be coordinated with studies being conducted by ODOT regarding interchange improvements on Highway 217. Page 1 We have been coordinating with ODOT to implement the study of additional access to the Triangle. Otlr• (i:iscussions with ODOT have indicated that ODOT does riot oppose the proposed Dartmouth L..ID project. ATEP Report The primary p(ir•pose of Lhe ATEP r•epor•L was to identify roadway improvements which will be required within the Tigar-d Tr-iangle as devolopment occurs . The report defines the ultinlat:e roadway widths and intersection inlpr•ovements which will be required.

The ATEP report provides the data necessai-y Lo anticipate the facilities needed at. various points of development and to reserve the necessary eights--of—way for- future roadway impr-ovements. Therefore, I. am riot concerned that: there are differences among the various traffic engineer-ing pr'ofessi.onals regarding their Assumptions as to the timing of development within the Tigard Triangle. The Martins and their consultants have also raised questions regarding the rates of traffic generation and density of future development assumed by the ATEP report. Most of these questions have been raised earlier• and were discussed in detail with ATEP and ODOT during the pr'epar'ation of the ATEP / report. During preparation of the ATEP r'epor't, I reviewed the material Page 2 submitted by the Martins and their consultants. From my review, I concluded that, were we to revise the ATEP report to incorporate all of the assumptions suggested by the Martins, that the conclusions as to the facilities ultimately needed in the Triangle would riot change significantly; i.e. , that the numbers of traffic lanes required on the various roadways and the locations of signalized intersections would riot: change. In the materials submitted, there is considerable discussion of buildout conditions. ATEP assumed that buildout of the Triangle, (i .e. , full development) will riot mean Lhat all proper•t:ies within the Triangle are redeveloped to their maximum allowed density. This is a reasonable assumption. Some of the properties within the Triangle area are already developed and redevelopment of these properties is unlikely for. many years . Also, many developers choose to develop their- land at less than the maximum that additional parking aroas or• additional density; some developers find r than development, of the land to its landscaping suits their needs bette maximum density . Therefore, I conclude thaL the existing comprehensive plan is an adequate traffic plan for the Tigard Triangle when combined with the implementation recommondations of the ATEP report.. Cum >r czhens ive Plan Chane e The Martins have suggested an ,iltor•ricAtAvo r•o,adwtay <alignment diffl�rlrnl. from t:he patt«r•ns shown in the comprehensive plan. Jo .implement the plan -_iuyJested by the Mar•L.ins would require a change in Lhe City' s comKrr•ehen-,ive plan, to data, the Martins have not formally roquest:cid a comprehensive plan chango nor have we heard any request for �a comprehensive plan change from any other. par•t.ivs. The Martins are st.u3gesting that a route is needed in the Tr•ianglo to carry through trafFic between Intpr•state 5 and Highway 217. Existing regional transportation planning does riot envision such a route. Tristead, the regional plans endeavor to keep thr•ouclh traffic on the major r og.ional highways So that City strecaLs can be l.ised to serve the traffic of the local area. no reason why Tigar•d' s comprehensive plan shuuld be r-ovised to provide a route for regional traffic: through the Tigard Triangle. After ODOT studies aro completed on the possible revisions to Highway 217 interchange access, the City may wish to initiate comprehensive plan map changes to reflect the recommendations coming from the ODOT' studies. 1n my opinion, construction of the proposed Dartmouth Street project does riot in any way prevent the City from later revising its comprehensive plan, if necessary, to accommodate a revised or additional access point to Highway 217. The proposed Dartmouth Street LID is consistent with Tigard's comprehensive plan and I can find no justification for delaying the construction of this roadway as proposed. Points of Agreement As documented in the written material submitted by the Martins (Exhibits 30, 31, and 32) there are some important points of general agreement among the engineering parties involved. We all agree that the Haines interchange on Interstate 5 is a logical connection to the Triangle. And we all agree that Page 3 it is appropriate that a new access be constructed at Highway 99W opposite 713th Avenue. Thus, we agree that the access points which would be. provided by the Dartmouth project ar-e logical and appr•opr•iate access points for- the .long term development of the Triangle. We also agree that the City arid ODOT' should jointly participate in the planning for south access to the Triangle in conjunction with current studies by ODOT of Highway 237 interchanges. As pr-eviously stated, I do not feel that construction of Dartmouth Street needs to await the completion of these studies. The alignment: of Dartmouth Street as proposed can accommodate potential revisions to Lhe south Triangle access without major, revisions to Dartmouth Street. South Access Study ODOT is cur•r•ently beginning a study of fut:ur-o interchange revisions along Highway 217 from Highway 99W Lo Inter•stat:e 5. As part of this study work, ODOT will be looking at: potential r•ev.is.ions to the 72nd Avenue interchange and at potential revisions to the highway 217 access to the Tigard Triangle. l_he review of revised inter'c'hange plans will necessitate review also Or the imparts on existing City str-oot.s such as Hunziker• Gtr-vot, 72nd Avenue, and Hampton St.root. The City will. be involved in the::e ODOT studies both for•nlally and informally. On an informal basis, Lhe C.i.t:y has a good working r'elat'ionship with ODOT in traffic planning for- our- area. On a fur•mal basis, tho City will be involved in the ODOT st.udir.s thr•c�spjh a lochnic•.al ridvisor•y conssnittee to be cyst,:+blishvd by ODOT grid through the public hear•.ing process which ODOT will conduct: before adopting the plan for- the Highway 217 inLer•changv .improvements. We have discussed with OODI the need tO coordinate their- study with City review or a possible additional. access point to the Tigard Triangle from the south. ODOT has indicated a strung willingness to work with the City on these studies . The City has budgeted funds for- additional traffic engineering analysis of south Tr•iarigle access if needed. Depending on the alternatives developed during the ODOT study, tho questions of south access to the Triangle r may be resolved by Lho ODOT study . 7f riot, the City could request that ODOT or- its consultants provide the additional work necessary to compleLe planning for, south access to the Tigard Tr-iangle. or-, if appropriate, the City could R commission a separate study to supplement the ODOT work . The best way for- the f City to participate will be determined during tho course of the ODOT study. l' City staff has been arid will continue to be in frequent communication with the ODOT staff t:o assure that: planning needs for the Tigard Triangle ar-e closely coordinated with the ODOT planning. s `f Interim Improvements Versus Ultimate Development i The Dartmouth CIO proposes to build a three--lane roadway along with drainage and utility improvements to allow development of the adjoining properties. The ATEP study suggests that, at ultimate development, a wider roadway will be required with additional intersection improvements. As previously discussed, the additional right—of—way and funding for additional improvements will be provided as development occurs along Dartmouth Street. The timing of the = , additional improvements will be coordinated with the timing of property development. This staging of development is not unusual and provides a way gg t a Page 4 s r ZANMEWNCM x s MM for utilizing our existing funding sources to best provide for roadway needs as they occur. ODOT Permit The City will need to obtain approval from ODOT' for construction of the Dartmouth Street access to Hi<3hway 99W. Our discussions with OODT indicate that t'he ATEP study has provided sufficient data to allow an access permit to be issued. In conjunction with the permit, ODOT may require an agreement with the City to assure completion of planning for, additional access to the Triangle and that future additional intersection impr•ovemenLs will be undertaken Ly the City as development occurs. Since this coordination is in the best interests of both ODOT and the City, I foresee no problems in developing a mutually acceptable agreement. Such an agreement is currently being drafted by the ODOT staff and should be available for- Council review soon. Coordination of Roadway Design arid ''Sitt, Devcalo )menta The Martins have suggested that roadway design should riot. bo f inal i ed until design is completed for development of all adjo.irn.ing properties . While such coordination might. be nice, it, doers not: appear- to be a pract.iC,A1 procedure. It: would require that tall properly owner's: bo prepared to develop of the same time and it would roquire that all property ownor•s ' plan:; be fully coordinated and that all property owners be in full agrooment, a:; to the details of development within the ar•e,,i. such a procedure would be very uni.)sual. Typically, properly developer' s plans tare very closely coordinated with economic arid market: factors . As a result:, developers frequently r•evi.so their, plans, sometimes even after construction htas bogun. Developers are reluctant to begin detailed planning until they are assured that; roadway acc+ass and utilities will be provided to their si.to, therefore, in the typical situation, the roadway is already in place before devolup)uent oc:cur•s , The Dartmouth Street improvement, will be designed to adoquately provide access; for future development along the roadway. ttowever•, the grades of the roadway are largely determined by the need to match the grades of existing roadways, especially Highway 99W, 72nd Avenue, and the Int:er•state 5 interchange access , h t{ T Martin Conclusions _ i The written testimony submitted on behalf of the Martins included "Conclusions" on pages 4 — tt of Volume I. In response, I have the following observations: fyy' J 1, 2, and 3 — South Access. The studies have recommended that we plan for, an additional access to the Tigard Triangle. As previously discussed, the City is prepared to work with ODOT in planning for, possible additional south access r to the Tigard Triangle. Location and funding for a new south access route, if appropriate, will be determined as a result of those studies. 4 — Development Density Restrictions. Considerable additional development can occur within the Triangle before an additional access route is required. ODOT has retained a consultant to proceed with the south access studies and the City has budgeted monies to participate in those studies as necessary. There • t' Page 5 ' is no reason to believe at this time that Triangle development will occur so rapidly as to require the additional access route before the studies can be completed. Therefore, the suggestion that the City legislate limitations on development density seems premature. 5. 1 . - Connection to Highway 217. The Martins are promoting a roadway for through traffic between I-5 and Ilighway 217. Such a roadway is riot consistent with the Tigard comprehensive plan nor with the Regional Transportation Plan. As previously discussed, i feel that .it, is not appropriate for- the City to plan for nor- to encourage through traffic between Interstate 5 and 217 to utilize City streets. 5.2 - Built-In Obsolesenco. As previously discussed, additional traffic lanes will be provided as development: occurs. Through the site development review process, the City can acquire and preserve most of the needed right-of-way as development occurs. 5.3 Grades. As previously discussed, the roadway grades are largely determined by the need Io match grades of existing roadways . However, the need to establish the roadway grade at, an elevation that. bast affords an opportunity for, access to adjoining sites is one of Lhe engineering design elomrnts that: is being incor•puratod in tho roadway design. This is a very common aspect of civil engineering design. 5.4 - Preserve Ri�h1�•of-Way__Lo Itic7hw� 217 . The pr•oper•t;y betwcoen the proposed Dartmouth street and highway 217 and west. of 72nd Avenue .is largely controlled by the Martin family. They are in as good a position to preserve future roadway corridors as the L:it;y would b- 5.5 Contrast With WAshincq.tort _Square. Simply counting the number of traffic lanes exiting an ar•oa�does riot tell tis the traffic capacity of those exits. The capacity of a t.r•affic lane is dependent on the type of intersect.ion control and signal timing. Traff.io; signal timing is basad on a number of factors, including Lhe numbers of .lanes and the volumes of traffic, on the cross streets. Since the future new access route to the Triangle has riot yet been determined, we cannot. determine how many Lr•affic lanes it: will provide. In addition, it is riot valid to compare Washington directly with the Tigard Triangle. Development within Washington Square is almost enLirely retail commercial, whereas the exPOcted development of the Tigard Triangle would be a mixture of uses, including retail commercial, offices, residential, and other uses. As a result, a greater percentage of trips generated within the Triangle may remain within the Triangle. Also, as suggested by the ATEP study, there may be other ways to reduce peak hour traffic in the Triangle, such as working with employers to vary working hours, providing car-pooling for large employers, and similar- demand management techniques. 6 - Traffic Engineering Assumptions. As previously discussed, based on my review, the alternative assumptions suggested by the Martins would not significantly revise the ATEP conclusions regarding the roadway facilities needed for the Triangle and at ultimate development. 7 - Legal Considerations. Legal questions will be addressed by the City Attorney. Page 6 Recommendations After having reviewed the comments and objections put forth by the Martins over the past several months, I can find no engineering justification for delaying construction of the Dartmouth Street project. Therefore, I recommend that the Council proceed with the Dartmouth Street LID project as originally proposed in 1904. br/O009D r� Page 7 i Ll DUNN. CARNEY. ALLEN.

DUNN September 21, 1987 'ADMITTED IN OREGON JAMES G SMITH AND WASHINGTON NATHAN L COHEN RESIDENT PARTNER, Or COUNSEL BE NO OFFICE Mr. Thomas Schwab Oregon Department of Transportation 9002 S. E. McLoughlin Boulevard Portland, Oregon 97222 RE: Dartmouth LID--Response to Your Letter Dated Auqust 7, 1987 Dear Tom: Thank you for meeting with Wayne Kittelson, Gordon S. Martin, and me on August 24, 1987, to discuss your letter dated August 7, 1987. Based on that discussion it is apparent that we are in agreement as to several issues of fact raised in your letter. To recap our conversation, and to help all parties establish the facts which bear on Triangle traffic issues, the following is a review of the conclusions reached in our discussion., 1. TAZ No. 1. Based on your review of the plat map for Traffic Analysis Zone ( "TAZ") 1, which contains the Farmers Insurance building, you agree that this zone contains 25.3 total acres, contrary to the ATEP report which identified 20 acres for this zone. Only 5.88 acres of this zone are currently developed. Therefore, approximately 19 acres remain available for development. 2. TAZ No. 30. Traffic generated by undeveloped acreage within TAZ No. 30 will impact the internal circu- lation system of the Triangle since such prop s currently t'lf ' 2 3 r MEN r Mr. Thomas Schwab r September 21, 1987 Page 2 have access to 69th Avenue. Therefore, these properties must i. be considered in developing employment and buildout assump- tions for the Triangle. In this regard, the ATEP report ' underestimates the amount of land available for development within this zone by 9 acres. 3. TAZ No. 33. The ATEP report incorrectly omits frcT - its inventory o-'—developable land 15 acres designated as "sensitive lands" within Traffic Analysis Zone No. 33. Such lands are buildable and may be used to meet minimum lands- caping, buffering, and/or parking requirements associated with a large-scale development. (See attached letter of Elizabeth Newton. ) 4. Phil Lewis School. The difference between the Kittelson estimate and the OnOT estimate of current buildout and year 2005 development in the Tigard Triangle area results from Mr. Kittelson's inclusion of the Phil Lewis School a property as developable land. The school property is cur- 4. rently zoned for commercial development. The State's figures reflect the State's assumption that the school will not be ft converted to commercial use even at full development. E 5. ATEP Buildout Forecast, Corrected. Based on the k above, ATEP failed to account for 29.33 acres of developable land in TAZ Nos. 1, 30, and 33. In addition, your letter of August 7, 1987, identifies 28.8 acres of developable land within the Triangle that is not accounted for by ATEP. The total equals 58.13 acres. When you correct for the addi- tional acres, ATEP's "full development" forecast actually results -in a percentage of buildout that is much lower than 100%. The following chart shows the actual percentage of Triangle buildout: 64 .8% (assumes the school and resi- dential property converts to commercial use. ) 82.8% (assumes the school and resi- dential property do not convert to commercial use. ) i Mr. Thomas Schwab September 21, 1987 Page 3 6. Outdated Employment Fiqures. The ATEP report did not utilize the most up to date population/employment figures developed by the Metropolitan Service District even though such figures were available before the ATEP study was com- menced. (See Dick Walker letter, June 18, 1987, and Charles Ruttan letter , August 6, 1987, at p. 2 -- Exhibits 48 and 52. ) - - 7. Outbound Capacity Assuming No Restraints. Your statement that additional access out of the Triangle will be necessary upon reaching a total development of 7,800 em- ployees assumes that there is sufficient capacity available on all of the surrounding state highways and roads to allow outbound Triangle traffic to exit without interfering with the surrounding state highway system. Your conclusion also assumes that Triangle traffic from the 7 800 employees will generate 5,000 p.m. peak hour outbound i trips which will spread evenly to all portals regardless of the directions such traffic actually is traveling. Thus, your 5,000-trip figure assumes that each outbound portal is operating at full capacity of either 700 or 900 outbound vehicles at each Tri- angle portal during the p.m. peak hour. As a consequence, your figures assume that 46% of such outbound Triangle traffic is oriented toward Pacific Highway. In contrast, earlier studies by ODOT, Kittelson, and ATEP assume that 60% of Triangle traffic is oriented toward Pacific Highway. Also, your figures are based upon an employment distribution of 77% office employees and 23% retail. Recog- nizing that retail use generates higher vehicle trips, if a higher -voluae of available Triangle land is developed for retail use, then greater traffic volumes will be generated. if that scenario develops, additional traffic capacity out of the Triangle will be necessary at lower levels of employment. 8. 55% Buildout. Finally, the August 7, 1987, letter states that Mr. Kittelson identified 6,650 vehicle trips into Z. Of these 5,000 trips, 1, 680 are pass-through trips generated from outside the Triangle. r- Mr . Thomas Schwab September 21, 1)87 Page 4 the Triangle and 8,020 vehicle trips out of the Triangle during the p.m. peak hour at buildout. It is understood that these figures reflect a 558 byildout of the Triangle rather than a full buildout scenario. If these statements fairly reflect the conclusions from our discussions on August 24, 1987, please indicate your acknowledgment in the space provided below and return the enclosed copy of this letter to us. , Thank you for your assistance in this matter. ruly yours, o / V • Douglas V.

Tom Schwab, .Transportation Analysis Manager Oregon Department of Transportation 2. Originally, the Kittelson report was to be based on a 70% buildout. The employment figures agreed upon by ODOT and Kittelson, however, are not high enough to create a 70% buildout. The employment figures were established without the benefit of MSD's figures for employment densities. When MSD 's employment densities are applied to the Kittelson-ODOT employment assumption, the result is a 55% buildout instead of a 70% buildout. r. CITY OF TIIFA RD August 26, 1987 OREGON 25 Years of Service 1961-1986 Gordon S. Martin 12265 SW 72nd Avenue Tigard, OR 9.1223 RE: Wetlands and Drainageways - Tigard Triangle Dear Mr. Martin: The area outlined on the attached map as Traffic Analysis Zone 133 is designated as General Commercial (CG) with a Planned Development (PD) Overlay on the City's Zoning and Comprehensive Land Use maps. Under the provisions of Section 18.120.020 of the Tigard Municipal Code all commercial development occurring within the CG zone must receive Site Development Review approval except in cases of a remodel involving 50 percent or less of the total square footage of the existing structure or 50 percent or less of the exterior wall surface. Under the Site Design Review approval standards the Director is required to make a finding with respect to the following criteria: Density Computation, Accessory Uses and Structures, Additional Yard Requirements, Building Height Limitations Exceptions, Landscaping and Screening, Visual Clearance Areas, Off-Street Parking and Loading, and Access and Egress. All of these criteria have an impact on the amount of development and in no case can the amount of development exceed the ability to provide services. Since this area is designated with the Planned Development (PD) overlay, all development must be reviewed as a Planned Development. This requires that additional approval criteria be addressed as follows: Signs, Relationship to the Natural and Physical Environment, Buffering, Screening and Compatit,ility between adjoining uses, Privacy and Noise, Access and Circulation, Landscaping } and Open Space,_ Public Transit, Parking, and Drainage. i In addition the shaded portion in area 33 on the attached map denotes drainageways and/or wetlands as indicated on the City's Floodplain and Wetlands Comprehensive Plan Map. Under Chapter 18.84 of the Community Development Code the Hearings Officer must review all development to occur within drainageways for Sensitive Lands Permit approval. The approval criteria for development within drainageways is as follows: 1. The extent and nature of the proposed land form alteration or development will not create site disturbances to the extent greater than that required for the uses; E r 3125 SVV Hall Blvd.,P.O.Box 23397,Tigard,Oregon 97223 (503)639-4171 2. The proposed land form alteration or development will not result in erosion, stream sedimentation, ground stability or other adverse on-site and off-site effects or hazards to life or property; 3:: The water flow capacity of the drainageway is not decreased; and i 4. Where natural vegetation has been removed due to land form alteration or the development, the areas not covered by structures or impervious surfaces will be replanted to prevent erosion in accordance with Section 18.100 (LANDSCAPING AND SCREENING). Any development which receives approval or approval with conditions under th'i { provisions outlined above could locate in Traffic Analysis Zone #33 provided it was a permitted use in the General Commercial (CG) zone. I hope this adequately addresses your concerns. 's Sincerely, i Elizabeth A.

W. Wildwood Court Tigard, Oregon 97224 Re: Dartmouth LID Permit -- September 18 Staff Memorandum ` Dear Council Members: y ODOT's preliminary draft of the access permit f, agreement requires adoption of a new transportation plan for the Triangle by September of 1988. (See attached draft. ) It also states that additional access for the Triangle must be implemented when the traffic exiting to the north and south reaches 4,900 outbound vehicles per hour. Based on ODOT's : existing and pass through traffic figures, this means that # the City of Tigard will be required to implement additional access once the Triangle has generated only 2, 382 more trips. Based on ODOT's trip generation rates, and MSD's 4 ratio of retail/office employment, these trips will be generated upon development of 68 additional acres out of the Triangle 's 333 total acres of land. I Following a logical development pattern, it is unlikely that the Martins and other landowners within the LID boundaries will be able to develop their property until addi— tional access is constructed and the trip capacity restriction is removed by the State. However, if the LID t 1 4 Tigard City Council September 28, 1987 Page 2 goes forward it is proposed that the Martins be assessed $500, 000 cash immediately despite their not receiving any benefit.

OREGON 97209 {5031 222-4402 DATE September 25 , 1987 TO Mayor Brian and the Tigard City Council FROM Tim Ramis and Chuck Corrigan, City Attorney's Office RE Dartmouth LID Legal Issues Page 1 Our office has been asked to analyze certain issues that have been raised by Gordon R. Martin and Gordon S. Martin, Jr. , with regard to the Dartmouth Local Improvement District No. 40. The Martins have submitted three volumes of written material on the Dartmouth LID. Their "legal issues" are found at Volume I, page 8 ( in a section entitled "Legal Considerations") , at Volume I, pages 22-24 ( "There are Serious Legal Problems With the Current LID Which Must be Addressed Before Proceeding With the Project") , and at Volume III at page 2-5 ( "Conclusions Regarding Assessments" ) . Each of these lists is largely a restatement of the issues found in the other two. Because the most particularized collection of the Martins' legal objections is found at page:,. 2-5 of Volume III, this memorandum will respond to the issues as there listed and formu- lated. Initially, some general observations are in order: 1 . Most of the issues here raised by the Martins were previously decided in the city's favor by the Washington County Circuit Court. Gordon R. Martin and Gordon S. Martin, Jr. v. City of Tigard, et al . , Washington County Circuit Court No. 84-0517C. 2. In its review of that trial court decision, the Oregon Court of Appeals ruled against the Martins' challenges to the formation of the LID. The court remandeu the project for a new assessment because a portion of the planned improvement was not f within the legal boundaries of the LID and therefore the cost of constructing that portion of the project could not lawfully be i Included in the assessment. Although the court of appeals did not t explicitly affirm the trial court's ruling on the other assessment issues raised by the Martins, neither did it disturb those rulings. s 3. Some general principles are applicable to most of the issues discussed below. The following quotation from the oft-cited case of Western Amusement Co. , Inc. v. City of Springfield, 274 Or. 37, 545 P.2d 502 (1976) , is instructive: i 1 O'DONNELL. RAMIS. ELLIOTT & CREW ATTORNEYS AT LAW 1727 N.W.HOYT STREET PORTLAND.

Regardless of the nature of the review proceeding, we have consistently used the same approach: 'We held that the city council 's determination that property has been benefited by an improvement and the amount of the benefit is conclusive unless the court can say that the city council 's action was palpably arbitrary and abusive. We said that the burden of persuading the court is a heavy one. '" 545 P. 2d at 593-594 (citations omitted) (emphasis supplied) . 3 In analyzing the Martins' complaints concerning ( 1) the city's determination as to the benefits provided various property owners by the improvement, and (2) the city's determination as to the value of such benefits, the burden is on the Martins to prove that such determinations are palpably arbitrary and abusive. 4. The Tigard Municipal Code includes explicit and substan- tial requirements regarding the notice and hearing to be afforded property owners in the LID assessment process. TMC 13.04.060. Such procedures are guaranteed in both the pre-assessment procedure ( implemented at the formation stage with assessments based on the estimated costs) and the final assessment procedure (which begins after the project is completed and is based on actual cost) . Additionally, state statutes provide that any property owner dissatisfied with the result of a hearing on his or her assessment is entitled to challenge that assessment in circuit court. ORS 223.401 ; ORS 223.462. 5. Certain sections of the TMC dealing with local improve- ment districts have been changed since the formation of the Dartmouth LID. Current code provisions are applicable to the issues that are the subject of this memorandum.

Turning to the Martin's specific allegations, the format for our responses will be similar to that employed by the Martins. That is, rather than re-stating in this memorandum those arguments which i already have been presented to both the trial court and the appel- late court, the appropriate sections from those briefs will be appended for reference. New or additional information will be discussed as well . The fallowing summary will use the same para- graph numbers and headings employed by the Martins. i 1 .

Further, the issue is moot, as the language relied upon by the Martins has been removed in conjunction with the amendment of TMC 13.04.080. E C. Even if the provision cited by the Martins were still found in the code, and even if their interpre- tation prevailed over the city's, should the city E proceed with a final assessment procedure, as opposed to a pre-assessment, the subject provision Is not applicable. 2 .

Property Owners Should not be Assessed the Total Cost of the Project. 5. Negative Economic Impacts. 6. Properties Outside the Assessment District will Benefit as Development Occurs. Arguments 2 through 6 center on the city's determinations as to who will be assessed for the LID, and how much those assessments will be. First of all , it must be recognized that the city's initial attempt to pre-assess this project was round void by Lhe court of appeals . No assessments currently exist. There are no assessments to be challenged. Second, assuming that the city were to proceed with the LID and were to eventually issue assessments, each property owner will receive notice and full opportunity for a hearing to challenge such assessments. After such a hearing, a dissatisfied property owner is entitled to appeal to the circuit court. A challenge now, to assessments not yet levied, is premature. Third, the city's determinations will be upheld unless "arbitrary and abusive. " 7. Condemnation for a Private Purpose is Unlawful . A. See Exhibit 4. B. This is a challenge to a recommendation found in the initial preliminary engineer's report. There now exists a draft proposed revision of that report which does not include a transfer of the Martins' property to adjacent property owner Homer G. Williams, Inc. C. Whether a governmental entity may condemn property depends upon whether the government's purpose, (not necessarily the eventual ownership) is "public" or "private.

This argument was raised unsuccessfully by the Martins in the initial proceeding in Washington County Circuit Court.

One of the authorities offered by Mcquillin for this principle is the Oregon case of Yettick v. St. Helens, 224 Or. 419, 356 P.2d 553 ( 1960) . In Yettick, neither the property owner who was challenging an assessment, nor the trial court or appellate court questioned the city's authority to include a proportionate cost of condemnation in the assessment on the property owner's remaining property. The above arguments, raised by the Martins as numbers 1 through 8 on pages 2 through 5 of their Volume III are, in the Martins' language, intended to summarize their position regarding assess- ment issues related to the Dartmouth LID. (Volume III, P. 1 . ) All additional "non-assessment" concern is raised by the Martins at paragraph 7 .3 on p. 8 of their Volume I, as follows: 9 "Whether the City's permit application meets i the standards established by Oregon Adminis- trative Rule. " k As is well-documented by the Martins' written submissions, it is ` for. the Highway Division of the State Department of Transportation to determine whether or not the traffic permit at issue should be } issued. That question is not within the jurisdiction of the City 4 Council. CONCLUSION The legal issues raised by the Martins in opposition to this local improvement district are (1) moot, (2) unpersuasive, (3) prema- ture, and/or (4) not appropriate to this forum.

Note, however, that ORS ' 24 223.399 states that the procedural provisions of ORS 223.389 do not 25 apply when a city provides otherwise by charter or ordinance.

First, the City Council 4 engaged the services of an engineer to prepare a preliminary plan, 5 cost estimates and assessment roll. Rec. at 122-130. The City then 6 formed a district by modifying the engineer's plan in the adoption 7 of Ordinance No. 84-17 on April 9, 1984. Rec. at 72, 88. After notice 8 and hearing, the City adopted the assessment formula and assessment 9 roll based upon the engineer's estimates. Ordinance No. 84-18, 10 adopted April 23, 1984. Rec. at 35, 59-61. However, petitioners 11 rely on certain .language in TMC 9 13. 04 . 080 as authority for the 12 � proposition that the City cannot adopt "an assessment ordinance prior 13 to the signing of a contract or upon a determination by the Council s 14 to make the improvements under its own supervision."

However, if a city code 6 provision is ambiguous and capable of various and conflicting inter- 7 pretations, the courts must defer to the reasonable interpretation 8 of the code provision adopted by the governing body of the city. 9 Fifth Avenue- Corp. -v.

' The City Council has reasonably interpreted the relevant- 12 Code section to allow the City to adopt the assessment formula and 13 assessment roll at the chosen time. Language in the relevant Code 14 section supports such an interpretation. In' particular, TMC 15 . § 13. 04.080. provides: 16 "The city council shall consider the city engineer's . estimates of assessments and all objections thereto 17 , filed with the city clerk, and without any further notice may adopt, correct, modify or revise the 18 proposed assessments, and shall determine the amount to be charged against each lot within the .19 district according to. the special and peculiar benefits accruing thereto from the improvement. *tet 21 "The assessment as adopted by the city. council against 22 each lot or parcel, of land shall. be declared by ordinance_ and- the city clerk shall thereupon enter ' 23 • .

As another portion of the relevant Code 3 section seems to conflict with this particular language, and requires 4 a further step by the City before assessment, i.e. , signing a 5 contract, it was then up to the City Council to discern the intent 6 underlying the Code section and interpret the section. in a manner 7 that reasonably accomplishes that intent.

THE CITY DID NOT ACT ARBITRARILY IN THE ASSESSMENT t. PROCESS. A. The City did not depart from its established rules of procedure in adopting the assessments for the Dartmouth LID. Petitioners argue that the City acted arbitrarily in adopting the assessments for the Dartmouth LID based on preliminary cost estimates. Petitioners' argument is incorrect, since the language of TMC 13.04.080 permits the City to assess for public improvements based on estimated costs. Petitioners correctly interpret language in TMC 13.04.080 as requiring the City to either engage a contractor for the improvements being assessed or to make a determination that the improvements will be made under the City's direct supervision. Petitioners then incorrectly leap to the conclusion that, if the City decides to engage a general contractor for the work to be 1 a4 done, it can only assess upon the acceptance of a bid and...the .i signing of an actual contract. Since the City, instead, relied on cost estimates prepared by R. A Wright, petitioners conclude that the City acted so arbitrarily as to .void the entire assessment process. Once again, petitioners cite to no authority for their position and, instead, rely solely on their interpretation of the following language from TMC 13.04.080: "Assessment. Upon signing a contract or upon a deter- mination by the city council to make the improvement under its own supervision by purchasing -the material and hiring labor, * * * the city council * * * shall direct the city engineer to apportion and assess the cost of making such improvement upon the lots, parts of lots and parcels of land within the assessment district in accordance with the special and peculiar benefits derived by each lot, part of lot and parcel of land. EXHIBIT I , pagesof 13 "If there is no contract let for the accomplishment of the work, the total estimate of the city engineer shall be considered to be the contract price for the improve- ment district. " Petitioners ' argument ignores the last portion of TMC 13. 04.080 which specifically authorizes assessments based upon estimates: "The city council shall consider the city engineer's estimates of assessments and all objections thereto filed with the city clerk, and without any further notice may adopt, correct, modify or revise the i proposed assessments, and shall determine the amount to be charged against each lot within the district according to the special and peculiar benefits t accruing thereto from the improvement." This section clearly authorizes the actions taken by the City in this case. 4 There sections of the Tigard Municipal Code provide the ` City with two options when assessing for public improvements to be constructed under contracts. The City can accept a contract _l e I for the improvement, and then assess based upon the total costs e contained in the contract. Alternatively, the City can direct its f. t engineer to prepare total estimates of the project's costs, and M assess based on these estimates. This process is called "preassessment." It is authorized by the quoted sections of TMC 13.04.080 and by state statute. ORS 223.389 allows a city to assess for public improvement "when the estimAted cost thereof is ascertained on the basis of the .contract award or city department costs. * * *" Under either ' provision, preassessment is adjusted when the final cost of the z project is known. In the case of the Dartmouth LID, the City / chose to rely on R. A. Wright's cost estimates for the project, EXHIBIT Pa6ve � of � 14 and assessed the affected properties under a formula based on these cost estimates. This course is permitted by TMC 13.04.080, and the City cannot be said to have acted arbitrarily by following this course of action. Viewed in the light most favorable to petitioners, these sections can only be argued to be ambiguous and subject to a variety of interpretations, including the one suggested by petitioners. The City, however, read them as allowing assessments based on preliminary cost estimates. When sections of a municipal code are ambiguous, the interepretation offered by the munici- pality will be entitled to great weight by reviewing courts. As the Court of Appeals stated in Bienz V. City of Dayton, 29 Or App 761, 776-777, 566 Ptd 904 (1977) : "In administrative law, we have generally held that it is the responsibility of the agency entrusted with the administration of a statute, rather than the courts, to fill the statutory interstices. * * * The same rule should apply in construing municipal ordinances. The city council is not only charged with administering the ordinance, but is the legislative authority from which the ordinance originates and thus is in a superior position to discern legislative intent. Here, we have an ambiguity in the ordinance. We defer to the city's resolution of that ambiguity where as here the city's construction is not contrary to the express terms of the ordinance. " (Citations omitted. ) See also, Fifth Avenue Corp. v. Washington Co. , 282 Or 591, 599, 581 P2d 50 (1978) . In 'the case at bar, the city council adopted assessments and entered them on the lien docket, following a construction which is not contrary 'to the express terms of the ordinance. In fact, this procedure is specifically authorized. Only the City's interpretation gives the full meaning to all sections of 13.04 .080 and, therefore, it is the more reasonable EXHIBIT I , page -7 of 15 interpretation_ The City complied with its established rules of `r procedure in adopting the assessments for the Dartmouth LID. B. The City is not required to make specific findings regarding objections to the proposed assessment plans. Petitioners allege that the City's failure to make adequate findings with respect to their objections to the proposed assessment plan renders "the assessment ordinance without legal effect. " (App Br at 27. ) This allegation is without merit, since the city council complied with the legal requirements for local improvement assessments. The formation of a local improvement district and the imposition of assessments to pay for it are legislative functions of local governments. As the Supreme Court stated in Boyle v_ City of Bend, 234 Or 91, 191, 380 P2d 625 (1963) : ,•, "There is no doubt that the power to determine whether • an improvement is to be made and that a ,tax will be imposed to meet the cost of. the improvement is a purely legislative matter." (Footnote omitted. ) s p See also, Stanley v. City of Salem, 247 Or 60„ 64, 427 P2d 406 (1967) , where-the court stated " ft]hat the scope of judicial s review in this area is limited." The• City isnot required to make specific. findings with regard to every objection raised, Hiransomboon v. City of Tigard, 35 Or, App. 595., 600, 587 Ptd 34 (1978) , so long as the assessment scheme is supported by "substantial evidence" in the record. ORS 34.040; Western Amusement Co. v.

Petitioners object to the City's removal of four properties from the final LID formation. (Actually, only three properties were completely removed. A fourth property had all but 10,000 sq. ft. removed. See Ordinance No. 84-17 (Rec at 77-79, especially 781 . In the following discussion, references E to "removal of properties" refers to the complete removal of the j three properties and the partial removal of the fourth property. ) j Petitioners argue that the council's decision to remove these i properties was "arbitrary and not in compliance with the City's stated criteria for determining benefit. " (App Br at 31. ) Contrary to petitioners' assertions, the City's action in removing these properties was rational and supported by no substantial evidence in the record. The city council determined that the subject properties were already developed and, thus, received no benefit from a project intended to enhance develop- ment of undeveloped property. (Rec at 85, 87, 88. ) Section 5 of Ordinance No. 84-17--the ordinance forming the Dartmouth LID-- excluded the properties by finding that they "are substantially developed and therefore receive no benefit." (Rec at 78. ) : This Court has held that distinguishing between developed and undeveloped properties for purposes of assessments is justified, Vail v. City of Bandon, 53 Or App 133, 139, 630 P2d 1.339 (1981) , and that a City's decision regarding such distinctions is subject only to the "minimal -rationality" test upon review. Id. The Nail case involved challenges to sewer district assessments by owners of unimproved real property. The city argued that the disparity was justified because the sewage EXHIBIT Q , page 4 of e f 11 NEI M BE= 19 facilities would be of greater benefit to unimproved land without existing sewage facilities, and that the potential for increase in the value of the unimproved land was greater than the potential for appreciation of already developed land, ultimately resulting in greater benefit to the unimproved land. The Court of Appeals ruled for the city, holding that " [w]e cannot say *** that these bases for assessing improved and unimproved property differently do not survive the minimum rationality test. " 53 Or App at 139. The "minimal rationality" test was outlined in another case involving legislative-type classifications for assessment purposes. In Wing v. City of Eugene, - supra, the city specially assessed for an off-street, downtown parking facility, and varied the assessments based on distance from the 'facility. In reviewing this classification scheme, the Supreme Court stated: MEMN " [I] t is only when such is arbitrary or unreasonable that the courts will strike down the attemped classi- fication [for purposes of assessment] . If there is a rational distinction between groups, if ,the classifi- cation has a reasonable relationship"'to the purpose for which it is made, it is valid." 249 Or at 374. In the case at bar,. the city council provided an adequate and rational reason for its decision to remove the four properties from the LID. The City's decision was not arbitrary and should not be disturbed upon judicial review. 2. Total cost of the LID. Contrary to petitioners' allegations, the City did not act arbitrarily by not reducing the projected total cost of the Dartmouth LID after learning that the State Highway Department intended to construct the improvements on Dartmouth Street between S. W. 68th and S. W. 69th Avenues. The notice of the EXHIBIT a , page f of S r 1 Council for consideration". memorandum at 2. Rather, the record L 2 demonstrates that such plans, specifications and estimates were 3 prepared by the City' s consulting engineer and presented to the 4 Council on February 13, 1984. Rec. 122-130, 131. Such materials, 5 which were also on file in the City Clerk's office, included a 6 detailed description of the proposed improvements, specifics esti- 7 mates as to the anticipated construction and related costs and a map 8 depicting the exact location of the improvements. Rec. 123-124, 130. 9 As to the technical construction specifications of such improvements 10 such as height -of curbs, thickness of pavement, type of permissible 11 street light standards, etc. , these standards, which are uniform as 12 to any such public facility within the City of Tigard, are always 13 available on file with Lhe Departmcnt of Public Works. 14 If Petitioners find these materials to be inadequate 15 under the terms and intent of TMC 13.04.030they offer no authority 16 for their position. Nor do they demonstrate or even allege that 17 such documents as were available to them somehow preclude the council oz 18 affected persons from making arr informed decision as to the appropri- 19 ateness or estimated cost of the project. Instead, Petitioners 20 simply deny the existence of these plans and specifications. Un- 21 fortunately, the record fails to support their claim. 22 Boundaries of LID 23 At pages 6-10 of their Memorandum, Petitioners allege that 24 Respondents' decision to exclude all or part of four properties from 25 the boundaries of the district is de facto arbitrary simply because 26 a future change of use is possible under the present plan and zone Page TWO — RESPONDENTS' REPLY TO PETITIONERS' MEMORANDUM OF LAW O•DONNIV..SIIILIVAN L RAMtS Attomeyf of Low _ 1777 N.W.Hot.'+t.eet °`�,�° O`°�97209Iso��m•4+o2 EX H I B IT page /, a e / of s I designations applicable to the parcels. As authority for their 2 position, Petitioners offer Kerr v. Hallett, 67 Or App 324, 677 P2d 3 1098 (1984) , rev. den. 297 Or 272 (1984) , which merely stands for 4 the proposition that a City' s reliance upon future potential use of 5 a parcel in its "benefit" equation was not arbitrary given the 6 deferential standard of review under Western Amusement. 7 The Court did not hold, however, that the City Council of Tigard or 8 any other city is bound to find the potential for a future change 9 of use dispositive of the question of both "benefit" . Indeed, the 10 thrust of the opinion, which relies heavily upon the rationale of 11 limited review set forth in Western Amusement, simply suggeststhat 12 the Medford City Council was free to consider "any reasonably anti- 13 cipated prospects for future use of the land" in its determination 14 of "special and peculiar benefits" . Supra, 67 Or App at 329. 15 Stated another way, the standard for this Court's oe le 16 review of Respondents' decision to exclude these four properties is 17 whether this decision was arbitrary and supported..by substantial 18 evidence in the record, not whether the subject properties could 19 support a different use in the future_ In this instance, the Council 20 offered a rational reason, supported by evidence in the record, for 21 its determination of a lack of benefit--the fact that the subject 22 properties were developed and will receive no benefit from a project 23 that is intended solely to allow undeveloped property to be developed. 24 Rec. at 78, 85, 88. This is all that is required under Western 25 Amusement and its progeny, including Kerr v_ Hallett, Supra. 26 Moreover, this specific -legislative scheme for determining Page THREE - RESPONDENTS' REPLY TO PETITIONERS' MEMORANDUM OF LAW O'OONNE1t,SUMVAN L RAWS At,.,—Vs of Low 1777 N.W.P*"Sheet Po�ff(503 0,-- ."97700 EXHIBIT a , page ,7 of 8 (SO71 727.4602 MOORE 1 benefit was declared valid and not ariuitrary by the Court of Appeals, 2 Vail v_ City of Bandon, 53 Or App 153, 630 Ptd 1339 (1981) : 3 "It is, of course, true that there is a separate aportionment of assessments upon improved and un- 4 improved properties and that the ordinance does predetermine that the amount of benefit ascribed 5 to unimproved property will be greater than the benefit to otherwise comparable developed property. 6 Those facts do not make the assessment formula violative of due process any more than they give rise 7 to an equal protection violation. The formula which ascribes greater benefit to unimproved than improved 8 property generally may properly applied by the City in determining the amount of benefit to particular 9 property without violating due process. " Id at 1343. 10 Indeed, it would be difficult for the Court to hold otherwise given 11 the uncertainty of whether a different use of the .parcel is in the 12 offing or even feasible, and whether such alternative use, even if 13 developed, would require additional access, and, thereby, receive 14 benefit from these specific improvements. For these reasons, 15 Respondents ' decision to exclude these four properties was neither 16 arbitrary nor lacking in evidentiary support in the record, and, 17 therefore, the Court should be very reluctant to interfere with this 18 determination. 19 Assessment of Cost 20 At pages 6-17 of their Memorandum, Petitioners- suggest that 21 specific costs of the improvement, including necessary insurance, 22 traffic signal improvements and. technical and administrative costs 23 associated with the project may not be assessed against benefji.ted 24 properties.

A. Wright, the project engineer, on March 26, 1984, the same day that the city council heard and considered public testimony regarding the formation of the Dartmouth LID. (Rec at 85. ) The construction of this part of Dartmouth Street amounted to approximately four percent of the project's total cost, and the city council chose not to delete this amount from the total assessable cost of the project. (Rec at 88. ) The decision by the city council to include the cost of improvements to this small section of Dartmouth Street was rational and not arbitrary. The "commitment" from the State Highway Department was informal and was received at a late date in the LID formation process. The council chose to retain the original cost estimates for the Dartmouth LID as a margin tui error and await a more official confirmation of the state' s intentions. This decision cannot be held to have been arbitrary =s or unreasonable under the circumstances. Furthermore, TMC 13.04.080 provides for adjustments to the assessments based on a final determination of actual costs. If the State Highway Department does, in fact, construct the portion of Dartmouth Street between S. W. 68th and S. W. 69th Avenues, each property owner's assessment will be reduced accordingly, since the final cost of -the project will be slightly lower than that. originally estimated. (3) Acquistion Costs. Petitioners challenge the assessments for the Dartmouth LID by alleging that the City, wrongfully included costs of ! obtaining land from the petitioners. The land in question was EXHIBIT 4, Page q- ®f 6 21 a small parcel belonging to petitioners on the north side of the proposed route of Dartmouth Street. The right of way would isolate this parcel from the rest of petitioners' property, rendering it of no value to petitioners. The land would, however, be of value to the adjacent property owner, Homer Williams. The City' s engineer recommended that the City facilitate a likely transaction by arranging for the sale of the property from petitioners to Williams. (Rec at 126. ) The engineer suggested a mechanism to accomplish this by condemning the small parcel and then trading it to Williams in exchange for land needed from Williams for the right of way. This plan would not have affected the total property acquisition costs for the Dartmouth LID, since any money expended to acquire the small parcel from petitioners would ultimately be recouped, since that parcel would be traded to Homer Williams in exchange for land needed from him for the i right of way, saving additional acquisition costs. Petitioners argue that the City erroneously continued to carry forward the purchase-sale of petitioners' property, despite having been informed by their counsel (Rec at 48) that petitioners would not accede to the City's plan. Petitioners argument is without merit since the project's total cost would not be affected whether or not the proposed transaction was accepted. If the transaction between petitioners and Williams is never completed, the assessment roll will have to be slightly adjusted upon completion of the project. This is because petitioners will have to pay the assessment for the small parcel on the north side of the proposed route, rather than. Williams as EXHIBIT f, page -5-of � 22 f anticipated by the engineer. As previously discussed, TMC 13. 04.080 permits adjustments to assessments after the completion of the project. in addition, the formation of the LID and the assessment of costs cannot be invalidated solely because the final determination of costs and assessments differ from the original. estimates, so long as the underlying premise of the project remains consistent and valid.

Petitioners will be fully compensated for the 3 property that is taken from them in accordance with the constitutional 4 requirement. Property owned by the petitioners after formation of 5 the LID and construction of the improvements will be specially 6 benefitted by the improvements. Petitioners must pay their share of 7 the costs of the improvements yielding the. benefit. If petitioners 8 had no property taken from them, they would simply be paying their 9 fair share of the costs of condemning the property necessary for the 10 improvements. As they will have some property appropriated for 11 right-of-way, petitioners will still pay their fair snare of the 12 costs of the condemnation of all of the property necessary for the 13 improvements; petitioners will also receive full compensation for # 14 any property taken from. them in a wholly distinct transaction. 15 As was stated in City of Eugene v.

Hall Blvd. Tigard, Oregon 97223 Re: Tigard Towne Square Project S.W. Durham Road and Pacific Hwy. City Council: As developer and general contractor for this major development, we have been in constant contact with a number of the neighbors near the project. I would like to present- some of the items that we Now have been involvcd in addressing concerns of the neighbors. 1. We resolved a problem with the Brownsons. They had to go to Australia immediately after the closing of their property. u They had purchased another home and needed to move their belongings and were having trouble finding an appraiser to inventory the belongings. In addition to compensating the Brownsons financially, we found an appraiser that could meet their time requirements. 2. We moved personal belongings, pole barns and a house trailer for the Randalls' at our expense. 3 . We are dedicating a portion of our south property to Royal Villa Mobile Home Court so that the residents who border our project will be able to keep their landscaping and yards that they were maintaining on our property. The property dedication is 20' wide in some areas. We helped move a cinder block garden for one resident, and helped move shrubbery for others. We hired an arborist to look at the trees along the mobile home boundary to make sure that the trees left were healthy trees that were safe to leave. 4. We tapped the artesian well on our property and piped it to our neighbors to the south, Mr. and Mrs. Meskel. They will use the water for their livestock. Portland/Seattle City of Tigard City Council September 21, 1987 Page 2 5. We built an entry road to the Meskel property that now has a new culvert under it and is better than what they had before we started our development. * 6. We've had several meetings with the Benz, Steel and Foster families on 113th to discuss arrangements to replace the culvert under 113th. We have reached an agreement with the Benz family on the surveying and installation. It won't be necessary to enter the Foster property for the installation, but Mr. Foster wants the larger culvert. 7. We have installed temporary asphalt at the end of 113th at Durham Road for easy access onto Durham for the residents on 113th and for public vehicles such as police, fire and mail delivery. This temporary paving will have to be removed when it is time to do the permanent- road work on Durham. This effort was appreciated by the Steels. Mr. Steel called our firm to tell us that the asphalt ramp on 113th was a good idea and thanked us for doing it. We have taken numerous phone calls from the surrounding neighbors and have tried to meet their wishes when feasible. We want to be a good neighbor and an asset to the neighborhood. We do need to pave the shopping center lot as soon as possible and especially prior to the rainy season. We have taken precautions to maintain clean water runoff from our project. We are committed to installing the culvert on 113th. It has been calculated by Westech Engineering that for the limited time between paving in September and adding the culvert in October or November there would be minimal risk to the downstream properties. We appreciate your consideration in this matter and hope you can see by this letter we do care about our neighbors. We will also have to "live" at 16200 S.W. Pacific Highway for many years to come so we do want to have a good relationship with the neighbors surrounding our property and with the City of Tigard. Sincerely, Gerald M.

INFORMATION SUMMARY During the 1987 legislative session, many laws were changed which will require amendments to the Tigard Municipal Code. One of those changes was a revision to the laws relating to theft. The theft law now modifies Theft Il offenses as those over $50.00 in total value of the property. Theft III is a new category which covers the value of property up to $49.99. The attachod ordinanco would bring tho lig,Ard Municipal Code into conformance with state law. ALTERNATIVE,,; CONSIDER17 D 1 . Adopt the attached ordinance to amend the IMC. 2. Take no action at this time. This would risk challenge of the theft cases in Municipal Court. FISCAL IMPACT 1. May change fines received through Municipal Court. However, with the amount of uncollected fines experienced in the theft categories this change may be a positive in enhancing collection efforts. 2. Would definitely see a downturn in fines received through Municipal Court since we would riot be hearing many theft cases. Most would be challenged and dismissed due to TMC language difficulties.

It was very timely as Council will be considering an Ordinance tonight amending the parking restrictions along 92nd. I attempted to call you so you could testify, but could not get a phone number. I have forwarded your letter to Council. The original parking restrictions were placed at the request of neighbors in the 92nd area whose yards were repeatedly trampled and driveways blocked by large stadium event crowds and High School students parking off campus. The City has struggled to find a balance between the parking needs of those using the High School facilities and the livability of adjacent neighborhoods. As to the disposition of traffic citations in the area, I am not sure what action Council may take. If the Ordinance is amended, I will recommend converting the citations into warnings consistent with the intent of the new Ordinance. Your letter has been forwarded to the Municipal Judge for his review. With all of Tigard's rapid growth came some growing pains. Hopefully we'll never get so big as to not be able to review individual citizen concerns like yours in a timely way. Thank you for your letter. It may help us find a more workable solution for all.

Box 23397 Tigard, OR 97223 Dear Mr Jean: Last Saturday (9/19) I was issued a twenty-one dollar fine for parking on the West side of SW 92nd which is adjacent to the Tigard High School athletic field. My son is involved with the Tigard Soccer Club. As such, we attend the games held at Tigard High School every Saturday. Last year we parked in the aforementioned location several times. Imagine my shock when I discovered that I had received a ticket for parking in the same location this yearl Many others received the same shock as there was an entire line of cars parked in this areal It is entirely possible that as many as a hundred motorists parked in this area during the course of the morning and early afternoon. Because the games are only an hour long, families toms and go quickly and the parking turnover is very high. I am curious what the City of Tigard's intentions are by issuing these parking citations . . . If it is intended to eliminate parking in this area , I submit that a simple warning would be sufficient for the majority of people. Because of the re- zoning, most of the motorists are not aware of their violations and are simply parking there out of habit . A warning message that explained the charge in the parking zone would be sufficient. I realize that there would be a small number of motorists that would ignore the warning. For those that choose to ignore it , citations later on in the season would be entirely appropriate. If it is intended to profit from this change by taking advantage of people's habits and general lack of awareness , I think, it stinks. Furthermore, I am outraged by the amount of the fine. I feel that twenty-one dollars is both ludicrous and inordinate. The city of Portland charges ten dollars. Is it somehow a bigger sin to violate a parking ordinance in Tigard? I plan to organize additional support against this public abuse by attaching flyers to the a:indshields of cars parked in this area for the next few weeks. I feel safe in assuming that there are going to be a lot more angry people gust like me. I sincerely hope that the City of Tigard's office is swamped with comments from equally outraged citizens.

Hall Blvd. P.O. Box 23397 Tigard, OR. 97223 RE: Street Parking Dear Gentlemen, On Saturday, September 19, 1987, I had the pleasure of driving my Grandson to his weekly soccer game. The game was held in an area adjacent to the Tigard High School. When we approached the play area we became aware that all parking . area's abutting the play field and stadium were identified as "compact" . We found that the larger American cars were parking on the far side of the street conspicuously away from residential driveways. We found no where to park our American made vehicle except at a location just be-fore proceeding down the hill into Cook's park 9 area. This area had the same sign "No Parking" next to a residential driveway. So, as not to interfere, we parked at least three car lengths from this "No Parking" sign. Rim City of Tigard September 22, 1987 Page Two (2) I waited in the vehicle while my Grandson prepared for his game. While sitting there several cars came by looking for parking and finally as I left to attend the game the third space in front of our parked vehicle was filled by a confused parent. As I walked back up the street to enter the playing grounds I observed that the only spaces open on this side of the street were residential driveways. Parked vehicles on this side of the road were not obstructing traffic, nor causing a health hazard to foot traffic. At 2:00 p.m. , the game was over. I collected my Grandson and began my drive to our home, which is in a different city. When I came to the intersection of Pacific Highway and Durham street I observed a pink piece of paper on my windshield. I stopped, removed the paper and found to my astonishment that some one had cited me for parking on the street to Cook's parr. I could only believe this to be a mistake, so on Monday, September 21, 1987, I called the City of Tigard to get an understanding of the purported ordinance that I had been cited for. After some fifteen minutes and three calls, I received a call from a, Lorene Wilson. She explained that she had the responsibility of inter- preting City law. I explained that I wanted to know if Tigard had signs that stated, "No Parking This Block", or equivalent signs and if so what was there 12inition? Are there parking ordinances in Tigard City that were unique or where could I find an answer City of Tigard September 22, 1987 Page Three (3) to my questions. Mrs. Wilson was a very courteous but stated that she could not answer that question, she then referred me to the City of Tigard, City Engineer's Office to a Mr. Randy Wally. I again explained to Mr. Wally what my interest was in their street signage. Mr. Wally explained that there was no consistent signage practice, that where problem area's occurred it was brought to the council and voted upon and then he would have signs installed. I asked Mr. Wally for a definition of what the "No Parking" sign meant and what were the limits of parking in the signed area. Mr. Wally explained that they had received many complaints on this street due to the confusion of the signage and they would take immediate steps to change the signs so that people could understand what area's were restricted to no parking. He also stated that Tigard High School administration had gone overboard when they allocated the school side to compact parking. I thanked Mr. Wally for his assistance. After my investigation, part of which I have explained here, I certainly do believe that I along with many other's were incorrectly cited for parking. I feel that should the City of Tigard not wish any parking on the far side of the street then a "standard" - NO PARKING IN THIS BLOCK, sign should have been placed. s e y City of Tigard September 22, 1987 Page Four (4) Further, my parked vehicle did not interfere with public traffic flow nor did I at any time cause a hazard to public health. # I have and will continue to observe the traffic laws and ordinances. I therefore, feel that the citation issued was wrong and therefore, without further information decline to pay the fee of $21.00. g Sincerely, TIGARD ELECTRIC, INC.

S F' .YC:. am A ooL ,fir 1 r e r r f y C t 9/21/87 Michael Stanbro 14025 SW 164th St. Tigard, OR 97224 City of Tigard: Last Saturday (9/19) I was issued a twenty-one dollar fine for parking on the West side of SW 92nd which is adjacent to the Tigard High School athletic field. My son is involved with the Tigard Soccer Club. As such, we attend the games held at Tigard High School every Saturday. Last year we parked in the aforementioned location several times. Imagine my shock when I discovered that I had received a ticket for parking in the same location this .yearl Many others received the same shock as there was an entire line of cars parked in this areal It la entirely possible that as many as a hundred motorists parked in this area during the course of the morning and early afternoon. Because the games are only an hour long, families come and go quickly and the parking turnover is very high. I am curious what the City of Tigard's intentions are by issuing these parking citations. If it is intended to eliminate parking in this area, I submit that a simple warning would be sufficient for the majority of people. Because of the re-zoning, most of the motorists are not aware of their violations and are simply parking there out of habit. A warning message that explained the change in the parking zone would be sufficient. I realize that there would be a small number of motorists that would ignore the warning. For those that choose to ignore it , citations later on in the season would be entirely appropriate. If your intentions are to profit from this change by taking advantage of people's habits and general lack of awareness , I think it stinks. Furthermore, I am outraged by the amount of the fine. I feel that twenty-one dollars is both ludicrous and inordinate. The city of Portland charges ten dollars. Is it somehow a bigger sin to violate a parking ordinance in Tigard? I intend to express my opinion of this situation to the Mayor of Tigard and to the Tigard Valley Times newspaper in the form of a letter to the editor. In addition I intend to inform the unsuspecting motorists that park in this area during the next few weeks by attaching a flyer to their windshields. I sincerely hope that your office is swamped with comments from equally outraged citizens.
