ROLL CALL: Present: Mayor Tom Brian; Councilors: Carolyn Eadon, Valerie 'Johnson; City Staff Present: Bob ,Jean, City Administrator; David Lehr, Chief of Police; Catherine Wheatley, Deputy City Recorder; and Randy Wooley, Acting Community Development Director/City Engineer, Also present: Washington County Commissioner, Roy Rogers 2. STUDY SESSION/WORK SHOP DISCUSSION WITH WASHINGTON H=TV C"ISSIONER, ROY ROGERS a. Commissioner Rogers addressed the topic: of "urban growth boundaries", noting that he was sneaking as an individual and not on behalf of the other Washington County Commissioners. He said than he would be talking about "philosophies." - Topics of discussion included the following: o Non-forced annexation Commissioner- Rogers rioted he was a proponent of non.-forced annexation. Council consensus was that they, too, Were proponents of non-forced annexation. o Contracting - Enhanced Sheriff's Patrol •- Commissioner Rogers noted one or the things he has encouraged was the opportunity for cities to contract back with the Sheriff's Office for police services within the urban growth boundary areas, He rioted khat the County and cities have agreed that "urban growth areas were areas which would likely be incorporated in the future. Commissioner Rogers' suggested that if Tigard does riot believe they can provide some contracting services to these urban; growth boundaries, , then perhaps they should consider amending the urban growth boundaries to current City limits. o Road Maintenance/Improvements There was lengthy discussion on road maintenance/improvements in developing areas. Discussed were the County's Traffic Impact Fee (TIF) funds and the City's SDC funds. There was also discussion on whether or riot a "trust fund" should be established for funds collected to assure availability of funds for street improvements when the time was right. o Least Possible Cost -- Commissioner, Rogers noted that the goal of both the City and County should be to provide services to the citizenry in a most cost-effective manner; therefore, he supports the philosophy of contracting. For example, it would be more cost effective for Tigard to address a pothole problem within the Tigard city limits rather then sending a County crew from Hillsboro. o- Council Policy on Contracting - There was discussion on the Council policy on contracting as reviewed at a recent workshop. Two different philosphie:� had been noted: Page 1 - COUNCIL MINUTES - April 18, 1988 1) Contractingas a City - policy was ,supported because of support for the County 2000 Plan. The areas identified for urban growth and within Tigard's area of interest represented some responsibilities on the part of the City. 2) ',Contracting as a City policy was questionable, the City should also consider• liability issues and whether the organization absorb the added intrinsic responsibilities of 'contracting. Also, the question was raised as to whether the City _should be considering contracting for services at only a "cost;break-even" mode. 0 Bull Mountain Area - There was lengthy discussion on the Bull Mountain area and potential traffic and service problems developing there. These: problems include rapid population growth which< will result in a high impact on Bull Mountain Road. Development fees (TIF) collected from the area have riot been earmarked for Bull; Mountain Road improvements. This money has been allocated to rather areas of the County. The Mayor asked if it was possible to look at a City/County planning/development contract and to sequester some of the fees being generated by the BullMountainarea. Commissioner Rogers responded that, "probably. . no," but added that he hoped the County would be progressive enough to not take large quantities of money out of an area without, there being some kind of improvements. He advised the County recognizes the rapid development of the Bull Mountain and Beef Bend areas Commissioner Rogers said he felt that funding' options would be ( examined soon. The issue of funding preliminary planning and engineering work to determine the needs of the Bull` Mountain area was discussed. Councilor `Johnson said she was not comfortable placing responsibility on Tigard's-professional planning, building, and engineering personnel and then, because of inadequate funding, find them to be unable to do a thorough needs assessment. Commissioner Rogers said he believed the County would riot require the same in--depth planning and engineering studies that Tigard--funding was riot available. o Development Fee Collection - City Administrator rioted that he had discussed with Bruce Warner•, Washington County Director of Land Use and Transportation, the possibility of implementing a .layered system of development fee collection. This would be an alternative to the current methods utilized wherein the County collects TIF fees and the City collects SDC fees. Under this proposed system, fees would be earmarked major arterial and local collector street systems. o Schedule Meetings - In order• to address issues in the urban growth areas and involve the residents of those areas, a variety of meetings were offered as suggestions-•--including NPO/CPO and joint City/County meetings. Page 2 - COUNCIL MINUTES April 16, 1988 o County 2000/Annexation; Policy — Commissioner Rogers noted the County 2000 was not an automatic annexation policy; it was simply the 'County facing reality: (F The County 2000 Report outlined the County's proposal t„ (given the County's limited resources) for delivery of urban--type services to these areas which are 'rapidly developing and can no longer be considered rural. There was discussion on annexation policies. Council consensus was . that they did riot wish to actively pursue annexations; however, if residents were interested in annexing to_Tigar•d, the City would be willing to help, them procedurally. The Mayor 'noted that if the planning issues in the urban growth areas were not addressed soon, then the problems would "quickly get ahead of us:" o Contracting Policy/Ramifications The Chief discussed with Council the Enhanced Sheriff's Patrol District. He advised, should the City decide to participate, that the County was anticipating City staff would be 'geared up and ready by January 1, 1989, to offer services. Commissioner Rogers reminded Council that should the City choose not to participate in the Enhanced Sheriff's Patrol District, the County would hire officersto patrol this area. These officers would automatically become City employees should the area become annexed to Tigard. Commissioner Rogers noted that decisions made now regarding contracting policy, would impact services offered for many years to come: "It's not going to be easy to undo ,what gets done." Fie noted that currently everyone was communicative and willing to work hard with one another. Commissioner Rogers said he respected the opinion that contracting may not be the way that the City of Tigard feels they should proceed. ]:f, in the Council's best opinion, they determine they should not contract---then Tigard should riot. But, he cautioned that Council should understand and accept the consequences of this decision. Mayor commented that Council had not had a total discussion on the subject. Council had riot talked about planning and engineering contracting, but had only discussed the general subject of contracting which included economic and liability concerns. o TIF Fund Administration -• Mayor commented on TIF fund administration. He noted that the County had distributed TIF funds on a priority basis among projects in areas which would most likely always be within the County's jurisdiction. He added, that he hoped the County and City would explore contracting for planning/engineering or future development and for the provision of services in urban growth areas. Mayor would also like the �` Page 3 - COUNCIL MINUTES — April 18, 1988 City and County to consider ,the concept; of sequestering - development funds into an escrow. Commissioner Rogers rioted that: approximately $1 million in 1.:117 funds had been collected from the Bull Mountain area to date. b. Minimum Security Prison Site - City Administrator noted that because Commissioner Rogers alerted the City early, the City had time to react and become involved when a Tigard site had been selected for serious consideration for the State minimum security prison. ` The site was removed from the list of sites under consideration. C. WCCLS City Administrator noted Washington County Commissioners have taken„ another look at their involvement in County-wide library issues. A coinnittee has been appointed by the Board of County Commissioners, City Administrator rioted he hoped the Library Cooperative would be kept alive and well. Commissioner Rogers riotedthat there was an opening on the Library Policy Advisory Board for WCCLS. d. Tigard Triangle/Tax Assessment - City Administrator rioted 'there would be " an informational meeting April 20th with NPO #4 concerning recent Tigard Triangle property tax assessments. He advised there had been recent reappraisals by the County Assessors' Office which recognized the .land use designations of the Comprehensive Plan. This resulted in properties being assessed as "Commercial..-Professional instead of "Residential." City Administrator rioted that the land cannot be sold o f developed as "Commercial--Professional° until the 'Dartmouth LID i . .was formed because, there was no access, e. Light Rail - Coimnissi c g uner Rogers briefly described his involvement on a committee formed to study light rail transportation, Committee members included local government and private industry representatives. They have been focusing on a light rail system and exploring funding by both the private ' sector and government, f. Mayor thanked Commissioner Rogers for his attendance and comments. (Commissioner Rogers left the meeting. ) 3. SCHOLLS IF T ROAD - MASTER STREETS TRANSPORTATION IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM (MSTIP) Acting Community Development Director/City Engineer presented a brief update on the status of preliminary design work which the Oregon Department of Transportation was doing for the Scholls Ferry Road (Murray Blvd. to Fanno Creek) project.

We have tried to pack a great deal of information into our presentations and our position paper, but we realize that we have not been complete in our explanation of at least one thing. A total maximum daily load (TMDL's) limit is a simple mathematical conversion from a concentration to pounds. By implication, USA has numerical target concentrations related to our TMDL's. Perhaps it would be helpful to see our target concentrations (outlined in middle of table) and TMDL's compared to DEQ's. Comparison of DEQ and USA target concentrations and TMDL's Flow USA TMDL USA CONC. .

Our studies show that at a flow above 160 cubic feet per second, the impact of phosphorus in the water is virtually not detectable. Nuisance algae will not grow in that kind of flow. As flow decreases, however, concentrations must be controlled more stringently to avoid nuisance algae growth. 150 North First Avenue,Room 302 Hillsboro,Oregon 97124 Phone:503/648-8621 April 7, 1988 Page: 2 Our goal is to manage the flow of the river to maintain better than a 160 cfs minimum flow. We feel that the goal is reasonable, achievable and have begun to work with local and state entities to achieve a minimum flow goal. How beneficial uses, standards, TMDL's and treatmentplant discharges':work together For sewage treatment plants, DEQ will regulate phosphorus through permits and monitoring. The permits will be designed to produce the conditions outlined in the TMDL's. The TMDL's are derived from the standards. The standard is supposed to support meet the beneficial uses designated for the river. We feel that our proposed TMDL's will produce' the conditions outlined in our proposed standard and that those conditions will support the beneficial uses. if you have any further information needs or questions,;,please give me, Gary Krahmer or Debie Garner a call at 648-8621.

To 'best accomplish that goal, we feel that: I. The actual standard should be retained as it is currently stated or be a descriptive narrative standard, rather than numerical standard; II. The rules (which set total maximum daily load limits--TMDL's--for the river) should allow for the different conditions present in the river at different flows; and III. Rather than focus just on algae and phosphorus, the river should have an overall, management plan that addresses all _factors of water" quality. ` 4 The following material represents our more detailed position and analysis in the three areas mentioned above. We have also included a listing of the Tualatin River's designated s beneficial uses and some specific action items. If you have questions or comments, please contact either Gary Krahmer, General Manager, Stan LeSieur, Assistant General Manager, or Debie Garner, Program Manager, at 648-8621. is C 1 I. USA's Proposed Phosphorus Standard USA's preference is that the existing standards for protection of water quality and aesthetic values be retained. If DEQ feels, however, that algae growth must be addressed through additional standards, USA proposes the following language- for a narrative standard for the mainstem of the Tualatin River: Nutrients and other influencing factors shall be limited so that: 1. There shall be no large floating mats of algae, 2. There shall be no blue-green algae growths that would be toxic to livestock, 3. There shall be no stringy or wiry algal_ growth attached to rocks or river banks, 4. Algal density shall not cause irritation to fish life, and 5. Algal. growth shall not cause severe discoloration of the water. ANALYSIS: DEQ and othershave identified the problem as beneficial uses being limited by algae growth. A numerical standard gives the,appearance of an objective,, scientific way to meet beneficial uses. Most everyone has agreed that since there is not a health hazard to humans or fish, the problem is .primarily aesthetic--a matter of,what is or isn't appealing to different people. The aesthetic or subjective nature of the problem in no way makes the problem any less real or important, but it does call for different control methods than those typically used. Any standard will assume that a certain condition will represent an "aesthetically appealing" river--it's a best guess. Our proposal goes a step further than a numerical standard by actually describing a visual condition that we feel may be "aesthetically appealing" to the users. The narrative standard is measurable through, for example, survey techniques used in market research. This type of measurement is not as easy as sampling the river to see if .10 mg/l of phosphorus has been met. It does, however, address the very subjective nature of the beneficial uses. It implies measurement by: 1)observation of the river and the usage it gets, and 2) surveys of users and citizens. 2 ii. USA's.Proposed Rules--Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLS) USA's extensive'`study of the river show that the following total maximum daily load (TMDL) limits for phosphorus, combined with other river management measures,_ will produce the kinds of conditions outlined .in our proposed standard. The key to USA's proposal is that algae growth is controlled by three factors: phosphorus, flow and sunlight. The DEQ proposalassumes a' fixed percentage of phosphorus for any particular flow. Our studies show that the DEQ proposal would result in worse problems during the summer, those months in which more sunlight and lower flows combine with phosphorus to produce excessive algae_growth. At the levels that we are proposing, USA must still remove its Durham Facility, effluent (treated wastewater) from the river in the summer, but the Rock Creek Facility could stay in. If USA is forced to remove its treated wastewater discharges entirely, the river flow would be even lower. USA's Proposed"TMDLs for Various Flows of the Tualatin River TMDL (lbs/day) Flow Travel Time USA DEQ* (cfs) (days) 19 38 70 or less 35 or more 38 54 100 25 67 67 125 19 121 81 150 16, 216 86 160 , 15' >216 >160 >14 * Please note that the DEQ proposal (shown along side of the USA proposal) actually allows more phosphorus into the river at low flow periods. ANALYSIS: A TMDL that tracks the river's response to flow and travel time has the following advantages. While protecting the beneficial uses of the river: 1. it recognizes the critical relationship between phosphorus and flow in producing algal growth, 2. it provides greater protection than the DEQ proposal for the river when it needs it, and 3. it provides the local jurisdictions with the flexibility to address the problem through several methods, used singly or in combination. Factors other than phosphorus and flow that affect algae ( growth and other aspects of river quality are addressed in the following proposed Water Quality Management Plan. 3 i i III USA's Proposed Water Quality manage ment, Plan Although not a complete effort at this point, we have developed the following proposed water quality management plan to reflect the `kind' of multifaceted approach USA supports to protect the beneficial uses of the Tualatin River: 1. Monitoring a) sampling/laboratory testing (river and streams) b) public, opinion re: whether or not beneficial uses are being supported by the river c) water quality database for long-term planning 2. Pollution Regulation/Control a) sanitary_sewerage discharges a) regulation/control of'what comes into USA system b) nonpoint source control* 3. Flow Management--facilitate planning and agreements among regulators water suppliers and users of/for the 'river re: a) existing flows b) flow enhancement (amount and velocity) c) storm drainage/flood control 4. Long-term Planning a) structural and nonstructural solutions b), application of current technology c) "multiple use" concepts for sites;and facilities 5. Intergovernmental Cooperation--initiate a process to promote intergovernmental cooperation to address a) impacts by one area on another b) land use, construction practices c) long-term system and water quality planning 6. Public Education/Involvement and Legislation a) increase awareness of and interest in river and water quality issues b) promote clean water actions c) work with diverse interests to develop consensus on river management ANALYSIS: The environment is a complex thing. Very rarely is there a cause/effect relationship between just two things. So it is with water quality. It isn't just phosphorus that controls algae. It isn't just wastewater treatment plants that send phosphorus into the river. It isn't just USA that is concerned about the river. ,3 4 Our roughly outlined water quality management plan incorporates a number of different factors and institutional considerations in an approach to the Tualatin River and its tributary=streams. We think it makes sense to take a comprehensiveapproach to managing the river, ,its flow, its sources of pollution and coordination among its political entities. * Any work by USA on storm 'drainage or nonpoint` source control is contingent upon formation of a storm and surface water management district in Washington County or adding those responsibilities to USA.' The function could also be under control of cities or another agency. 5 ATTACHMENT A Beneficial Uses for the Tualatin River {From OAR 340, Div. 41) Public domestic water supply* Private domestic water supply* Industrial water supply Irrigation Livestock watering Anadromous fish passage Salmonid fishrearing Salmonid fish spawning Resident fish and aquatic life Wildlife and hunting Fishing Boating Water, contact recreation Aesthetic quality Hydro power * With adequate pretreatment and natural quality that meets drinking water standards: .F Some Specific Action Items USA is prepared to work with DEQ and other affected entities to address the nuisance algal problem through a multifaceted approach, which may include: 1.

Washington County has asked the Unified Sewerage Agency (USA) to conduct -a public involvement, financial.planning, and j facilities planning process that may lead to formation of a storm and surface water district in Washington County. USA currently is a service district that provides sanitary sewerage service in the more urban areas of Washington County, i plus small portions of Multnomah County, Clackamas County and Portland. Why? What's the problem? There are three main problems and one other factor: 1. Pollution from runoff* negatively impacts water quality in the Tualatin River and its streams. This condition can be improved through various structural and management efforts. t 2. There are gaps and overlaps in storm drainage management little attention to the water quality impacts of runoff. - The issues and problems cut across typical political boundaries. 3. There are some flooding problems in the County and { further development may serve to increase flooding problems if adequate systems are not in place. ON THE HORIZON: The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) will be requiring pollution control discharge permits for storm systems in the early 1990's. USA's Goals It appears that there are good reasons ;:a raise the issue of formation of a storm and surface water management district. USA's goals in doing this will be to: 1`. raise the public's awareness about the issues--water quality, gaps in responsibilities, flooding and the impacts of EPA permits--through public information efforts, 2. involve the public in identifying problems and goals for water quality and storm and surface water management, and 3. leave it to the public to determine whether or not a district should actually be formed. USA staff does not want to be in a position of "selling" a storm and surface water management district. ISONZOI ISO= b k L Starting Date ' r USA is not 'quite ready to launch into pre-formation i activities, partially because_funding for the effort is not yet assured. Staff hopes to begin the effort no later than July 1, but the funding assurances could'possibly come much earlier. i USA's Authority to Address Storm and Surface Water Mgt. USA's founding legislation gives it authority only relating to sanitary sewerage related issues, except where that authority is extended by contract. On January 12, 1988, Washington County contracted with 'USA to conduct pre-formation activities for forming a storm and surface water management district. That contractual authority. is contingent upon receiving repayable grants from cities and the County. USA has no authority to spend sanitary sewerage revenues on storm system operations. - Comments or Questions? Please feel free to ask questions or make comments.

FISCAL IMPACT N/A SUGGESTED ACTION To be discussed. br/A173D MEMORANDUM CITY OF TIGARD, OREGON TO: Mayor and City Council April 11, 1988 f FROM: Randy Clarno, Development Services Managert'_.-,_ - SUBJECT: Public Improvements as Conditions of Development - Initial Discussion Follow--up. On January 18, 1988, stafF 'brought to you an outline which discussed in general public improvements as conditions of development, and more specifically half-street public improvements. For this follow—up discussion, we would like to address concerns with Development Code criteria relating to when construction of half--street improvements may be delayed. In general, current City policy and code provisions require that half-street improvements be installed with any new development if existing street improvements are substandard. Specifically, the current Code provision reads as follows: { "Where" the City Engineer determines that a required street improvement would not be timely, or where lack of support: by the "other property owners would prevent a complete street improvement, the City Engineer may 1 accept a future improvement guarantee in a for•in approved by the Public ` Works Director." r This Code language has existed for several years. The language was intentionally written without , specific criteria in order to allow it, to be adapted to various site conditions. However, the lack of specific criteria has caused difficulty in irite rpretation. As discussed at the January 18th meeting, it appears desirable to better define City policy by adopting some I more definitive criteria for allowing delay of half—street improvements. i Based on policies which have evolved from past staff review of projects and from discussions with the Council, we suggest the following criteria be adopted as justification for delaying construction of half—street: improvements. If one or more of these criteria were satisfied, a future improvement guarantee could be accepted in lieu of half—street construction. (A) A partial improvement is not feasible due to inability to achieve r, proper design standards. I i (B) A partial improvement will create a potential safety hazard to motorists or pedestrians. (C) Due to the nature of existing development on adjacent properties it is unlikely that street improvements would be extended in the forseeable future and the half--street improvement: associated with the;project under review does not, by itself, provide a significant improvement to street safety or capacity. r Mayor and City Council April 11, 1988 Page 2 (D) The improvement would be in conflict with an adopted capital improvement plan. (E) The application is for a land partition on 'property zoned residential and the Proposed land partition does not create any new streets. (F) Additional 'planning work is required to define the appropriate design standards for the street and the application is for a project which would contribute only a minor portion of the anticipated future traffic on the street, If 'these criteria appear to meet the guidelines expected by Council; we will prepare a proposal for a formal 'code revision. The proposal would be presented for• Council adoption after• the usual review by Planning Commission and the :Attorney's office. Other conditions of development were discussed at the January 18th workshop. We expect- to bring recommendations and policy questions on these other issues to the Council from time to time in conjunction with other discussions of proposed code revisions and Master Plan updates. her/4173D 1 m mi CITY OF TIGARD, OREGON COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY AGENDA OF: April 18, 198 DATE SUBMITTED: April 11, 1988 ISSUE/AGENDA;TITLE: Scholls' Ferry Road PREVIOUS ACTION: ¢, Improvements 1.n ' PREPARED BY: Randall R. Wooley DEBT HEAD 0 jCITY ADMIN OK REQUESTED BY: POLICY ISSUE INFORMATION SU101ARY a At the April l8th_workshop meeting, I-would like to present a brief update on the status of the preliminary design work which ODOT is doing for the Scholls Ferry Road (Murray Blvd. to Fanno Creek) project. At that time, I expect to be able to provide a preview of a status report which ODOT and Washington County are preparing for public release. ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED FISCAL IMPACT SUGGESTED ACTION br/4178D E j Department of Transportation HIGHWAY ®iVISION NEILGOLDSCHMIDT Region 1 GOVERNGR 9002 SE MCLOUGHLIN BLVD.,MILWAUKIE,OREGON 97222 PHONE 653-3090 April 6, 1988 In Reply Rerer to File No INTERESTED PARTIES Murray Blvd. - Fanno Creek Scholls Highway PURPOSE The purpose of this update is to provide background information IN and a status report on proposed improvements to the Scholls ; Ferry Highway between Murray Boulevard and Fanno Creek. Particular attention has been paid to issues raised by local users. BACKGROUND Like most major roads that lead from the Tualatin Valley to the Portland area, Scholls- Highway got its startas 'a meandering farm-to-market' road. Explosive development during the last 30 years has placed tremendous pressure on the road as well as all other major radial roadways in the county (e.g. Tualatin Valley Highway, Farmington, 99W, Cornell, Highway 26). (See attached map). One recommendation of the Southwest Corridor Study was expan- sion of Scholls Highway to a five-lane arterial. Following this study, the Washington County Transportation Coordinating Committee (represented by the Counties, Cities, Oregon Depart- ment of Transportation (ODOT), Tri-Met, and the Port of Port- land) recommended to the County Commissioners to include Scholls Ferry Highway as a high priority improvement in the Major Streets Transportation Improvement Project (MSTIP). The urgency was mainly due to the increased traffic volume and the numerous citizen complaints about the congestion along Scholls Ferry Highway. Voter approval of Washington County's three-year MSTIP levy `and.a commitment of ODOT resour ces to the project made it possible to begin prelimin � �®!fir engineering in the spring 1987. 1915 ' 1080 AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYER 734-18588(3-88) To function effectively as'"a major arterial link to Highway Scholls Highway 217 (with or `without the westerly bypass), g must be designed in a fashion that limits access, signals, and other impediments to traffic movement. To do otherwise would compromise the substantial taxpayer and road-user invest- ment in the road's increased capacity and improved design. NEIGHBORHOOD CONCERNS' In recent months, ODOT has conducted an evaluation of 'safety ` concerns raised by neighborhood residents concerning the Scholls Highway project. These concerns are: 1. Vehicular -traffic entering and exiting Springwood Drive from Scholls Ferry Highway. 2. Pedestrian traffic crossing Scholls Ferry Highway at Springwood Drive and just west of the Fanno Creek Bridge (along the Greenway). 3. Safety problems associated with the steep 'grade of the north approach to Scholls Highway at 121st. EVALUATION CONDUCTED ODOT's evaluation included a cooperative effort with Washington - County, the City of Beaverton, and the City of Tigard and covered the following: 1. A recent traffic study that included data analysis of both manual and _mechanical vehicle _counts of the Springwood Drive-Scholls Ferry Highway intersec- tion. 2. A study of alternatives for a pedestrian crossing of Scholls Ferry Highway. 3. A traffic study for the intersection of 121st and Scholls Ferry Highway. 4. Public sentiment provided by local users at the MOT public meeting and at a neighborhood meeting held by the City of Tigard. A copy of this evaluation with cost/benefit analysis, traffic report, and alternative studies is available for review at the Region 1 Highway Division office in Milwaukie. RESULTS OF STUDY ODOT's evaluation concludes that a traffic signal at Springwood Drive, while supported by a large number of the local users, would not be a responsible installation. This determination is based on the following study findings: z 1. The level of service provided by Scholls Ferry Highway would be reduced significantly due to signal-caused delays (a complaint that is heard frequently by staff of all four jurisdictions). Analysis shows �. that the new system of traffic signals at neighboring intersections would 'create adequate gaps in traffic during peak hours for safe vehicle entry and exiting at the Springwood Drive intersection. 2. A signal at the Springwood Drive intersection would increase traffic volumes on Springwood Drive, a neighborhood street. Increased noise, faster speeds, r and difficulty in backing from residential driveways would be among the disadvantages to ;Springwood Drive a residents. s 3. A pedestrian signal at Springwood Drive would not serve the Greenway crossing at Fanno Creek as users would continue to cross at mid-block. 4. Improvements related. to grade alignment, and sight distance would enhance the safety of the intersection of 121st and Scholls Ferry Highway. E As an aside, some improvements are also proposed for S.W. 121st Avenue on the south side of Scholls Ferry Road. The improvements _are intended to increase traffic capacity at the 321st/Scholls intersection." The Tigard City Engineer r proposes to make some changes to the pavement markings this summer in order to increase the length of the left-turn lane. € As part< of the Scholls Ferry project, ODOT and the City of Tigard will be considering addition of . a right-turn lane and other improvements to 121st Avenue. STUDY RECOMMMENDATIONS A Technical Advisory Committee, made up of engineers and planners representing the City of Beaverton, City of Tigard, Washington County, ODOT, and the Federal Highway Administra- tion, has reviewed these studies and unanimously recommend the following: ` 1. Do not install a traffic signal at Springwood Drive. 2. Raise the Fanno Creek Bridge approximately 3.5 feet in conjunction with its proposed widening, and con- struct a pedestrian/bicycle undercrossing along the creek's west bank. 3. Modify the design of the north leg of the 121st Avenue intersection and in corporate improved sight a i distance and improved grade while accommodating access to ` existing properties. This modification should be designed to accommodate any possible future } streetalignment proposals by the City of Beaverton. E conduit ` at the intersections of 4. Place electrical- Scholls lectricalScholls Ferry Road and Springwood Drive and Conestoga t Drive to allow future traffic signal installations if necessary. , These recommendations will be incorporated into the overall project design and Environmental Assessment and will be avail- s able for review and comment at future public hearing. E OTHER INFORMATION Status - The Environmental Assessment (EA) for this project is currently -being prepared. An additional informal public meeting will be scheduled late this summer for the purpose of updating the public on the current design and distributing the EA. After a 30-day review of the EA, a formal public hearing will be offered to hear testimony on the project design and environmental document. Traffic Handling - Some concern has been expressed for local streets and traffic handling during construction. _ Construction of Scholls Highway will be staged in a 'manner that ;half of the highway can be constructed while two lanes of 'traffic (one lane in each direction) can be maintained. Traffic P then would be `moved to the new pavement and construction completed. Only occas Tonally, for short periods, and during non-peak.hours, would traffic be stopped or diverted. Adequate notice would, be given during these periods. Access to all # residences and businesses would be maintained at all times g during construction. Other Projects - Construction has Just begun 9 on a traffic signaliastaanation inter mdinstallationefuge at Completion$hiscs©heduled Scholls for May 1988. An LID for a traffic signal and roadway widening on Old Scholls Highway at Hurray Boulevard, coordinated with the construction of the larger project has been approved and is scheduled for completion August 1988.
