1. ROLL CALL
Council Present: Mayor Jerry Edwards; Councilors Judy
Fessler, Wendi Conover Hawley, Paul Hunt, and John Schwartz.
Staff Present: Patrick Reilly, City Administrator; Dick
Bewersdorff, Senior Planner; Ed Murphy, Community Development
Director; Liz Newton, Community Relations Coordinator; Michael
Robinson, Legal Counsel; Catherine Wheatley, City Recorder;
and Randy Wooley, City Engineer.
STUDY SESSION
Policy Concerning the Capital Improvement Plan
City Engineer Wooley reviewed the policy question: What should the
process be for selecting the projects to be funded under the
capital improvement program for the next fiscal year?
He reported that each year, funding is identified through the
budget process for capital improvements to the streets, sanitary
sewer and storm drainage systems of the City. Specific projects
are then selected to utilize the available funds. Due to changes
in the City's committee structure, there is a need for review of
the process for selection of projects.
Mr. Wooley then reviewed history for each of the capital
improvement project areas. For streets, there is slightly over $12
million of projects in "back log." Approximately $1,000,000 is
available each year for streets. The Transportation Committee no
longer exists; this Committee used to study and recommend project
priorities for consideration by the Budget Committee and City
Council.
The sewer capital improvement budget has a substantial contingency
and only a few immediate project needs.
Storm drainage projects have been selected based on severity of
potential damages from flooding. Projects for the small budget of
$100,000 per year are selected by staff subject to Council
approval. SDC funds are collected and regulated by USA. SDC
dollars have been collected and are being held in an interest-
bearing account awaiting USA policy development for fund
expenditure.
There was lengthy policy discussion. Mark & Jill Link and Rosemary
Shrauger own property along the recently approved "Gaarde Road
CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES - APRIL 27, 1993 - PAGE 1
Extension. 11 Property owned by Mr. & Mrs. Link and Mrs. Shrauger
will have to be purchased in order to build the road as aligned.
The Links and Mrs. Shrauger have asked for consideration of
initiating negotiations as soon as possible for the purchase of
their land and homes. Mayor Edwards noted that when the time comes
to discuss the specific purchase of property, an Executive Session
would be called for Council determination of any details on
potential purchase.
Staff was directed to prepare information for a June 22 Council
discussion. Information requested by Council included:
• where else in the City is there a potential for the
situation as it now affects the Link and Shrauger
properties (identify these on a map)
• research policy followed by other cities
• prepare a list options as possible suggestions to address
this issue
• Council will submit to staff ideas or options they can
identify
Citizens for a Community Center
Mr. Jack Schwab, representing the Citizens for a Community Center
(CCC), reviewed the group's position on attempting to purchase and
renovate the old Fire Station on Commercial Street into a Community
Center. Voters turned down the proposal to fund the purchase and
renova-cion through issuance of bonds. Be,ause of the show of non-
support in a monetary way, the CCC determined that they had no
further options to pursue without additional resources.
There was discussion on the need for a community center for
meetings, events, and educational classes. Several Council members
advised they would favor non-monetary support through endorsement
or private fund-raising efforts. At the suggestion that the Fire
District may be able to give the Fire Station to another
governmental entity (i.e., rental to the City for $1/year), Mayor
Edwards said this possibility merited further review. Legal
Counsel Robinson advised his office would need to do some research.
Council meeting recessed: 7:25 p.m.
Council meeting reconvened: 7:30 p.m.
BUSINESS MEETING
2. VISITOR'S AGENDA
• Lynne Kamerman, 13145 S.W. Watkins, Tigard, OR began to
testify from a prepared letter to the City Council.
Legal Counsel Robinson intervened and suggested it would
be better if Ms. Kamerman submitted her testimony to the
CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES - APRIL 27, 1993 - PAGE 2
Planning commission during their upcoming hearing on the
( issue she partially presented. Upon advice from Legal
counsel, council did not accept Ms. Kamerman,s letter.
Mark Rockwell, 164 S.W. Kingsgate, Lake Oswego, Oregon
advised he purchased property in the Tigard Triangle
area. He requested Council consider a request for a
Comprehensive Plan Change out of the sequence prescribed
for the timing of such proposals.
Community Development Director requested, and Council
granted, a two-week delay (next Council meeting is
May 11, 1993) to prepare a written report outlining
policy implications for this particular request.
Ed Gallaher, noted his concern about a billboard located
near Highway 217. He advised the billboard does not
appear to be intended for viewing by 217 travelers.
Rather, the message on the sign can only be read by
persons traveling on Scholls Ferry Road. Staff will
review whether the sign is in compliance with the
ordinance.
• Jack Polans, King City, thanked the Council for the new
policy of providing copies of tape recordings of Council
meetings at the Library for check-out. He noted some
problems with background noise and tape clarity.
Mr. Polans questioned proceedings of a recent Tigard
Water District budget meetings and executive sessions.
Mayor advised Mr. Polans it would be appropriate to
register his concerns with the Water District.

4. PUBLIC HEARING: WESTERN BYPASS - REQUEST FOR APPROVAL OF
ALTERNATIVES FOR THE DRAFT ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT
(DEIS).
a. Public hearing was opened.
b. City Engineer Wooley introduced this agenda item and
reviewed the staff report.
C. Bill Ciz, Project Manager for the Western Bypass, with
the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) reviewed
material distributed (see Council packet for a copy of
said material). ODOT is investigating how a bypass (new
highway from I-5 to Highway 26) or alternatives to a
bypass would help reduce north-south and circumferential
travel congestion in southeast Washington County. Five
alternatives were identified and reviewed. The next step
in the study is to analyze how these alternatives would
impact neighborhoods, the environment, economics, land
use, and other important factors through what is known as
a Draft Environmental Impact Statement.
Washington County, after Tigard, will be the last
jurisdiction to hear the alternatives and to approve a
resolution which mould endorse the alternatives for
further study. All other affected jurisdictions have
given approval to continue. The County hearing is
scheduled for May 14, 1993.
Mr. Ciz reviewed the target schedule for the process.
There were Council comments on the process, with it being
noted that the Council, in the past, had had some
concerns about components of several of the proposed
alternatives.
d. Public Testimony:
• John Beckman, 9960 S.W. Sattler, Tigard, Oregon
asked that the "use of alternatives" be considered
rather than building another freeway. He suggested
that the following be encouraged:
- shorter commutes
- carpooling
- non-motorized transportation

Larry Westerman, 13665 S.W. Fern Street, Tigard,
• Oregon urged consideration of the LUTRAQ
alternative. He noted the Triangle planning now
being done represented forward thinking.
advised that the way land is used is changing.
(For example, the LUTRAQ alternative proposes
transit oriented developments that mix commercial,
retail and residential land uses near transit
lines/light rail stations.)
David Wadley, 6062 S.W. Meadows Road, Lake Oswego,
Oregon submitted written testimony (on file with
the Council packet material). Mr. Wadley supported
the LUTRAQ or a similar alternative.
Ed Gallaher, 12140 S.W. Merestone Court, Tigard,
Oregon testified that he objected to the project
being named "western bypass." He suggested it
should be called a regional transportation study.
He noted concerns with placing a bypass through

Mr. Gallaher noted that this hearing was to discuss
the alternatives, but questioned when the citizens
would be able to get their voice heard with regard

presented traffic pattern and traffic count maps
(on file with the Council packet material).
There was contention between the Mayor n Mr.
Bissett as to whether the testimony
Bissett's proposal was appropriate at this time.
The Mayor indicated he had heard Mr. Bissett's
proposal previously and did not believe his
comments were germane to the subject of that this
hearing. Councilor Fessler requested
Bissett continue to present his proposal.
CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES - APRIL 27, 1993 - PAGE 7
After discussion and a request by the Mayor that
Mr. Bissett testify only on the subject matter of
the public hearing, the Mayor allowed Mr. Bissett
to continue.
Mr. Ciz of ODOT commented on Mr. Bissett's
proposal, noting that this proposal had been
reviewed as a possible alternative about a year ago
in the process. Mr. Bissett's plan is similar to
the Transportation System Management (TSM) and the
Arterial Expansion alternative. At that time, the
decision was made not to look at Mr. Bissett's
proposal further.
e. Staff recommendation was to approve the proposed
resolution.
f. Public hearing was closed.

ENDORSEMENT OF FURTHER STUDY OF WESTERN BYPASS

present. (Mayor Edwards and Councilors Fessler, Hawley,
Hunt, and Schwartz voted "yes.")
Council meeting recessed: 9:15 p.m.
Council meeting reconvened: 9:30 p.m.

PDR 92-0003 VARIANCE VAR 92-0010 SENSITIVE LANDS SLR 92-
0002 QUAESTOR/MATRIX DEVELOPMENT The City Council will
reconsider a request for approval of the following development
applications: 1) Subdivision preliminary plat/Planned
Development conceptual plan approval to divide a 33.8 acre
parcel into 64 lots ranging between 7,000 and 21,950 square
feet in size; 2) Variance approval to allow a 14 percent grade
for a 200 foot section of a proposed local street whereas Code
Section 18.164.030 (M) (1) limits the grades of local streets
to 12 percent; 3) Sensitive Lands Review approval to allow
grading, road construction, and home construction on lots in
excess of 25 percent gradient and to allow utility
construction within a drainageway.
The City Council previously approved this application subject
to certain conditions of approval. The applicant appealed the
City Council's decision to the Oregon Land Use Board of
Appeals. The City of Tigard withdrew the earlier, challenged
CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES - APRIL 27, 1993 - PAGE 8
decision, and will now reconsider the application.
a. Public hearing was opened.
b. Mayor Edwards asked if there were any declarations of ex
parte contacts or information gained outside the hearing
or a site visit. Mayor noted receipt of correspondence:
A letter dated April 24, 1993, from Althea Rodde, 13745
S.W. 121st Avenue, Tigard, Oregon is on file with the
packet material. Ms. Rodde noted objections to
development and to the permissible uses contained in the
zoning language.
Members of Council confirmed that they had familiarized
themselves with the application.
There were no challenges to hearing the matter before the
city council.
Legal Counsel Robinson read the following:
Testimony in evidence must be directed toward the
criteria the Mayor has described or other criteria
in the land use regulations which the person
believes to apply to this decision. Failure to
raise an issue with sufficient specificity to
afford the decision makers and the parties an
opportunity to respond to that issue precludes an
L. appeal to the Land Use Board of Appeals.
Councilor Hawley advised that she had not had time to
review the letter from Ms. Rodde; she was given a copy
for review.
C. Community Development Director Murphy reviewed the staff
report submitted to Council with their packet material.
The issue before Council was: Should the council modify
its August 18, 1993 decision for the proposed Vista Point
subdivision with regard to 1) amount of developer
constructed improvements for the S.W. Gaarde Street
extension; 2) reimbursement to the developer for
construction of S.W. Gaarde and other public
improvements; 3) dedication of open space; and 4)
narrowing internal subdivision streets?
Mr. Murphy advised of a change to Page 25, Condition No.
19 of the Final Order. (Note: The amended Condition
should read: The S.W. Gaarde Street extension shall be
built to major collector standards from S.W. 121st Avenue
to proposed Lot 52 with. development of Phase I. Prior to
or concurrent with construction of Phase II, the
applicant shall construct the S.W. Gaarde Street

extension to a point 140 feet south of the norther edge
of the subject parcel. The collector street improvements
shall be 44 feet in width for Phase I and 40 feet in
width for Phase II. The applicant shall not be
responsible for the second lift of asphalt for the
section of roadway to be built with Phase 1I.)
Mr. Murphy answered several questions of clarification
from Council.

• Steve Pfeiffer, Attorney, 900 S.W. 5th, Portland,
OR 97204 advised that his client had no problems
with the staff recommendation.

TO: Pat Reilly April 22, 1993
FROM: Randy WooledJ2

SUBJECT: Capital Improvement Program
What should the process be for selecting the projects to be funded
under the capital improvement program for the next fiscal year?
Each year, funding is identified through the budget process for
capital improvements to the streets, sanitary sewer and storm
drainage systems of the City. Specific projects are then selected
to utilize the available funds. Due to changes in the City's
committee structure, we need to review the process for selection of
projects.
HISTORY
Here is how the system has worked in the past:
Streets: Approximately $1,000,000 is available each year for
street projects. Roughly half comes from gas tax and half
from TIF (Traffic Impact Fees). About the only restriction on
gas tax is that it be used for street purposes, including
pedestrian facilities. TIF can only be used for constructing
improvements needed as a result of growth. TIF is restricted
to certain streets listed in the County TIF ordinance. At
least 500 of the TIF funds are to be applied to the major
streets listed as arterials in the County ordinance.
In the past the Transportation Advisory Committee has reviewed
project needs and recommended priorities to the Council. The
Committee has reviewed various project requests, listened to
citizen input, and established project priorities. Last year,
the "needs" list reviewed by the Committee included over $7.5
million of project requests competing for approximately $1.0
million of funding available. Most of the "needs" list
remains unfunded.
In recent years, approximately half of the gas tax funds have
been allocated to the major pavement maintenance program
(overlays, slurry seals, and bridge maintenance). The
Committee expected that the program would continue, to protect
the City's investment in existing streets and to avoid more
expensive pavement repairs in the future.
In the TIF program, the 72nd/99W intersection project has been
partially funded in the current year. Since construction of
the project will mostly occur in FY 93-94, the Committee
intended the TIF funds necessary to complete the 72nd/99W
project would be from the 93-94 budget. This project will use
a significant portion of the 93-94 TIF budget.
Sanitary Sewer: This capital budget has a substantial
contingency and only a few immediate project needs. I would
like to discuss use of this budget to fund extension of sewer
lines to existing neighborhoods that lack sewer service,
perhaps with the formation of reimbursement districts to repay
construction costs as homes are connected to the sewer system.
The immediate issues on sanitary sewer funding may be related
more to review of City policies than to selection of specific
projects.
Storm Drainage: This is a small budget of approximately
$100,000 per year. Typically, staff has selected projects
subject to ratification by Council. Project priorities have
been selected based on severity of potential damages from
flooding.
FUTURE
During the next year, I would like to see a long-term CIP (capital
improvement program) developed. Perhaps a 5-year CIP would be
adopted, then updated each year. A 5-year CIP would help to give
an overview of project needs and priorities. It would allow us to
better answer citizen questions about when improvements will be
made. When a new project is proposed, the 5-year CIP would provide
comprehensive information about what projects would be displaced if
the new project is funded.
I recommend that the Planning Commission develop and recommend a 5-
year CIP. The final document would be subject to ratification by
the Council. The Planning Commission would review the document
each year and update as appropriate. I am recommending the
Planning Commission because they could coordinate capital planning
with their other long-range planning activities and because they
are the successors to the activities of the Transportation Advisory
Committee. This work could be started this fall, after Triangle
Plan and other current major projects are completed.
THIS YZAR
For the FY 93-94 budget, I propose that project selection be made
by the City Council, rather than going through the Planning
Commission, for the following reasons:
• Due to prior project commitments, funds for new projects will
be limited this year.
• The Council is already involved in several of the projects
that will be competing for funds (e.g., purchase of properties
along the proposed Gaarde extension alignment, improvements in
downtown area, etc.)
• Some of the process this year will require Council policy
{ direction. Establishing Council policy this year will be a
benefit when the Planning Commission begins the 5-year CIP
development later on.
• Planning Commission is already involved in some major projects
at this time.

Award bid for construction of the Dart !mouth Street improvements to the low bidder.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Approve the award, authorizing the City Administrator to sign the contract with Emery & Sons
Const. for the asphaltic concrete street alternative when all the rights of entry have been
obtained.
INFORMATION SUMMARY
On March 30th, 1993, eleven bids were submitted for the construction of phase II of the
Dartmouth Street Local Improvement District (LID) and Capitol Improvement Program (CIP).
Phase I was completed in 1991 and involved construction of the signal at 99W and
approximately 200' of Dartmouth Street. Phase II involves the construction of the remainder
of the project. The right of entry has not been obtained for one property which we are
currently pursuing. We expect resolution of the matter in the courts in 4 to 6 weeks.
Each contractor submitted a bid for asphaltic concrete (AC) and portland cement concrete
(PCC) pavement to determine the least expensive alternative. Both alternatives are
equivalent in pavement structural section. The LID requires us to select the lowest cost
option which is the AC pavement. The increased cost to construct PCC pavement vs. the AC
pavement is equivalent to an additional 2" AC overlay. The City has the option of selecting
the PCC option and paying the difference but this is not recommended. The eleven bids are
as follows:
Emery & Sons Const, Stayton

FISCAL NOTES
The funds for this project will be obtained from the LID formed by Ordinance No. 88-08 for
construction within the LID boundary. Improvements outside the LID are funded from the CIP
budget. Phase I construction costs were approximately; LID $63,000, CIP $161,000. Phase II
construction costs are approximately; LID $934,900, CIP $61,400.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING 4/27/93
Agenda Item 3.1
MEMORANDUM
CITY OF TIGARD
TO: Pat Reilly
FROM: Randy Woole~
SUBJECT: Dartmouth Street
April 21, 1993
Here is additional information on asphalt and concrete pavements,
as requested by the City Council. We are prepared to construct
either alternative.
Farmington Road and 185th Avenue were cited as locations where
other jurisdictions had chosen concrete pavement. On Farmington,
City of Beaverton reports that they bid alternate pavements, just
as we did on Dartmouth, and received lower construction bids for
concrete. The Farmington project was bid at a time when asphalt
prices were higher. In choosing concrete for the 185th project,
the County based its decision on life-cycle costs. We have
requested more information on the assumptions made in computing
life-cycle costs but do not yet have this information.
Pavements are designed based on the number of vehicles that will
pass over the pavement during the design life of the pavement. The
intent with Dartmouth was to design and bid alternate pavements
based on the same assumptions about the vehicle loadings during the
design life. As explained in the attached memo, in reviewing the
original design information we find that an error had been made
when the consultant prepared the design drawings. The asphalt
pavement should have a thicker gravel base than shown. Once this
correction is made, the difference between asphalt and concrete
pavement is reduced. The concrete pavement costs $30,000 more than
asphalt in initial construction. This is about 10% of the pavement
cost.
Should the City spend an additional $30,000 now to reduce long-term
maintenance costs? The answer is not clear. If traffic forecasts
prove accurate and if long-term planning for the area does not lead
to revisions of the Dartmouth alignment, then the City would likely
save more than $30,000 in maintenance costs during the next 15 to
20 years. If traffic does not develop as rapidly as forecast, then
it would take longer to realize the maintenance savings. If
changes to the transportation system plan lead to revisions in the
alignment, then the maintenance savings would never occur for those
portions of the road that are realigned.
If the decision is made to spend the additional $30,000 now for
concrete pavement, the additional funds would need to be provided
by the City. The most likely source of funding would be the
streets capital improvement fund. Some other project would need to
be deferred. The decision then is whether the City is better
served- by deferring a current project need to possibly reduce
future maintenance costs or by completing more projects now to
reduce current and future maintenance costs on the projects.
When the apparent difference between asphalt and concrete appeared
to be around $70,000, I felt that the cost was not justified. Now
that it appears that the difference is only $30,000, the decision
is not so clear. If the $30,000 is to come from the funding from
pavement major maintenance, then I would not find that a good
trade-off; from the life-cycle standpoint, the funds would be
better used to protect existing pavements. If the $30,000 is to
come from deferring safety and capacity improvements, then the
decision is not so clear. It is hard to put a value on safety
improvements, especially when they are often based on the desire to
reduce the potential for accidents rather than on an actual
accident experience. Perhaps this is the policy issue that the
Council will want to discuss.
Neither asphalt or concrete is inherently superior. Both require
regular maintenance. Concrete typically lasts longer before major
maintenance is required. Concrete works better for nighttime
illumination and some people prefer its appearance. Asphalt has a
better ride and is easier to repair when it is necessary to cut the
pavement for utility work. Asphalt repairs can typically be done
with less traffic disruption than concrete repairs.

CITY OF TIGARD
April 20, 1993
TO: Randy Wooley*'~
FROM: Gary Alfson SUBJEC
T: Dartmouth Street Pavement Alternative
Bids for Asphaltic Concrete (AC) and Portland Cement Concrete (PCC)
pavements were obtained for Dartmouth Street. The structural
strength and the life cycle cost of the two pavements must be equal
in order to compare the two to determine the most cost effective
alternative.
The pavement section designed in 1986 recommended an AC section of
7" of asphalt on 12" of baserock and a PCC section of 63'z" of PCC on
4" of baserock. The AC section was modified by the Consultant
Engineer, reducing the asphalt thickness to 511. The baserock
should have been increased by 4" to compensate for the reduced
asphalt section but was not. Therefore an additional 4" of
baserock must be added to the AC section in order to make it
equivalent to the PCC section.
The contractor has provided a cost of $37,840 to furnish and place
the additional 4" of baserock for the AC pavement. The PCC
pavement alternate included short sections of AC pavement also,
therefore an additional cost of $5,940 must be included in the PCC
pavement cost.
The total cost of the AC pavement is now $277,040 and the PCC
pavement is 306,590. The PCC pavement will cost $29,550 more to
construct.
A life cycle cost comparison is not as easy to compare as the
initial cost of construction. The general rule of thumb is that PCC
pavements will last twice as long as AC pavements before major
maintenance is required. After 15 to 20 years AC pavements should
be overlayed, and after 30 to 35 years the surface should be ground
back down and fabric placed prior to the second overlay. After 40
to 45 years PCC pavement should be repaired, which typically
involves reconstructing portions of the pavement and crack sealing.
In todays dollars this roughly amounts to $55,000 at 15 to 20 years
and $120,000 at 30 to 35 years for the AC pavement, and $110,000
for PCC pavements at 40 to 45 years.
Based on this analysis the PCC pavement would be the least
expensive after the first AC major maintenance in 15 to 20 years.
Other factors to consider are that AC pavements ride better and are
easier to maintain for utility trenching and patching. PCC
pavements are easier to illuminate at night and do not wear as
rapidly.
The traffic level on Dartmouth is expected to be 10 - 15,000 ADT at
build-out, similar to current traffic levels on Durham Road. 185th
Avenue, a PCC pavement built by Wash Co. has an ADT of 20,000+.
The City of Beaverton typically constructs PCC pavements on their
Major Collector streets. They have found that, as the traffic
volumes increase, the cost of the required pavement section for AC
is equal to and sometimes 'exceeds the cost for PCC as was the case
with Farmington Road when it was built a few years ago.
I recommend that we construct PCC pavement for the Dartmouth Street
project with the additional extra cost of $29,550 to be paid by the
city.

DEPT HEAD OK CITY ADMIN OK_ _REQUESTED BY: 99W_Task _Force/CD Should the City request that the Oreg Department of Transportation (ODOT)
fund 80% of a 99W transportation sys ems management study to improve the
efficient use of the existing roadway, as recommended by the 99W Task Force.
The City would offer to pay the remaining 20%. ODOT has not offered any
funding for the study.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff supports the 99W Task Force recommendation.
INFORMATION SUKKARY
The 99W Task Force has been working with ODOT for well over a year to
determine improvements to 99W that will not seriously damage businesses in
that corridor. One project to improve the Hall St./99W intersection has been
identified. The task force believes that now the State and Tigard should
take a comprehensive look at 99W to determine ways to improve the corridor in
Tigard and to increase its efficiency without expanding it. This can be
accomplished through such techniques as access management, lane stripping and
pedestrian and bikeway improvements.
Because this study will benefit the State and Tigard, the task force has
recommended that the city be an active partner in the study by funding 20% of
its cost. ODOT staff have declined to participate in the study because they
believe it should be done after other regional studies, such as the Western
Bypass, are completed. The task forced believes, however, that because these
the soon
improvements proposed use of what is presently there, improving
this study can and should be done as
the
as possible.
PROPOSED ALTERNATIVES
1) Not request funding for the study.

Dear Mr. Warner:
City Council
Judy Fessler
Wendl Conover Hawley
Paul Hunt
John Schwartz
The City of Tigard asks Oregon Department of Transportation to become a partner
with the City in studying ways to improve the 99W corridor in Tigard. The City
requests ODOT fund 80% of a $75,000 99W transportation systems management
study; the City would pay the remaining 20%.
The attached scope of work outlines this study which will identify ways to improve
the efficiency of the existing roadway without expanding it. Because this is not
a demand based study, but one that looks at ways to improve efficient use of an
existing facility, improvements will be evaluated in terms of costs and benefits.
This is a timely study. No matter what other improvements will ultimately be made
on 99W we will, of course, want first to insure that it is operating at the maximum
efficiency possible within the framework of state and local goals.
We look forward to hearing from you regarding this study and working with you
to resolve transportation problems on 99W.

Ah 1rpose:
To identify problem areas and points of conflicts on 99W and determine a package of actions and
willlljbe re atively low cost, e existing capacity more ee undermining and will not add new paavementjects
Study Area:
99W in Tigard.
Background:
99W is a major arterial connecting Portland and communities to the southwest; it moves large amounts
of commuter and recreational traffic. it is also a major commercial district with many types of busy
activities that attract trips, conflicting turns and congestion.
The regional transportation plan identified the need for improvements to 99W in Tigard. ODOT has
conducted studies of this corridor. The results of the western bypass study will affect traffic on 99W as
will the proposed Barbur LRT study. Whatever the results of these studies, mobility and safety need to
be improved on 99W. This study will identify low cost interim improvements that will be a part of
whatever other improvements other studies recommend.
Study:
This study will review existing conditions and identify points of conflict, accident locations, and
unsatisfactory service levels. It will explore a range of low cost actions and projects to improve mobility,
safety and access on 99W and evaluate their costs and benefits. It will involve and inform the business
community and general public and build a consensus for a series of road improvements.
options considered in study:
Access management techniques such as consolidating driveways, closing off non essential
driveways and streets, adding frontage roads and medians.
Transportation systems management improvements such as modifications to signal system or lane
stripping patterns, adding turn lanes.
Pedestrian and bike safety improvements including installation of sidewalks and improved
pedestrian crossings, better connections from commercial centers to streets, transit stops,
neighborhoods and other commercial centers.
Transit improvements including pullouts, shelters and park and ride lots.
Improved signs to reduce driver confusion and lost second lane switching.
Improvements to the aesthetic quality of the street particularty where needed to reduce driver
confusion or where other traffic improvements are proposed.

ISSUE BEFORE THE COUNCIL
PJR
Should the Surface Water Management (SWM) responsibilities, divided between
USA and the City of Tigard, be redefined?
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval of the-attached _resolution.
---~-INFORMATION SUNIIrtARY
Since inception of the SWM program, USA has been responsible for certain
activities within each Washington County city, including Tigard. The SWM fee
has been shared in accord with the distribution of responsibilities. The
level of responsibilities is supposedly the same for each of the seven cities
which conduct their own program. In reality, however, there are disparities
among the cities due to local circumstances associated with the original
agreement.
The seven cities and USA have discussed this division of responsibilities and
fees concluding that a redefinition is in order. These discussions have been
prompted by the disparities among cities, inefficiencies in the current
system and confusion over who does what. Further, experience has shown the
difficulty in segmenting SWM activities between cities and USA.
The problems, it is believed, could be eliminated by assigning to the cities
the responsibility for 100% of SWM maintenance, with the exceptions of
regional facilities and State highway and road facilities. There would be a
redistribution of revenue to cities to cover the added costs. In any event,
the City is not liable to spend more on SWM responsibilities than SWM
revenues received.
PROPOSED ALTERNATIVES
1. Maintain current distribution of revenues and responsibilities.
2. Redefine SWM, making USA responsible for the program in its entirety.
FISCAL NOTES
Additional expenditures would be covered by the 12% increase in the city's
share of the SWM, from $2 to $2.24. There is no requirement that the city
spend more on SWM than it receives in revenue.

ISSU BEFORE THE COUNCIL
To authorize th submittal of an application for State Marine Board Facility Grant Funds
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
To authorize submittal of the application
INFORMATION SUMMARY
The Oregon State Marine Board Facility Grant Program provides funding assistance to local
jurisdictions and state agencies in constructing and improving public recreation boating
facilities on all water bodies of the state.
The City seeks Marine Board grant funds to replace the Cook Park floating dock and gangway
to access the dock. Technical assistance in designing the proposed improvements was provided
by Marine Board staff, who inspected the facilities last year at the City's request.
The attached memo summarizes the grant request. Copies of the full application are available
with City recorder's office.
PROPOSED ALTERNATIVES
1.) authorize as recommended
2.) do not authorize submittal of the grant application
FISCAL NOTES
The amount requested is $13,012. To meet the 25% local match requirement, a $4,338 City
contribution is proposed. This amount is within the $6,500 for dock/gangway improvements
included in the proposed 1993-94 City budget. The project proposed in the budget was for
upgrading the existing facilities, with railings, bumber guards, transition plates, and a
landing at the end of the gangway. If awarded, the grant would be used to completely replace
the old dock/gangway with a new dock/gangway.
In addition to this state program, the project concurrently is eligible for funds from a
federal program, called the US Fish and Wildlife Wallop/Breaux Fund. Staff proposes to
request the $4,338 amount from this source. No local cash would be required if both the
marine Board and US Fish Wildlife Department awarded funds. The City previously has received
awards from both programs for Riverfront improvements.

MEMORANDUM
CITY OF TIGARD, OREGON
TO: Patrick Reilly
FROM: Edward Murp
DATE: April 16, "V
SUBJECT: Application for Marine Board Grant
At the City's request, State Marine Board technical staff have inspected the Cook
Park floating dock and gangway to access the dock. They have identified various
safety and access problems with these facilities. The option they recommend to
correct these problems is to completely replace the existing structures at an estimated
cost of $17,350.
The State Marine Board currently is accepting applications for funding assistance for
improvements to public boating facilities. The proposed dock/gangway work
potentially is eligible for funding from this program. The match requirement for the
project would be 25%, or $4,338.
Because either local or federal funds can be used to meet this match requirement,
staff proposes to request the $4,338 amount from the US Fish and Wallop/Breaux
Fund. The City previously has received awards from both programs for Riverfront
capital projects.
If awarded, the grant funds would be used to replace the existing 15-year old dock
with a new dock that would be 50% larger than the existing structure. The existing
wooden gangway would be replaced with a handicapped accessible aluminum
gangway. According to Marine Board staff, the new facilities would be 100% more
accessible than the existing facilities and would reduce substantially the City's
potential liability under ADA standards.

b. Describe the relationship of the project to nearby existing public and
and private marine facilities.
The Cook Park boat launch served by the tie-up dock is one of only two
boat access points located on the 2S-mile long valley floor reach of the Tualatin
River. The other site is located in the City of Tualatin approximately one mile
upstream and on the opposite side of the river from the Cook Park site. The
Tualatin site includes a single-lane ramp and eight car-trailer parking stalls.
There are no nearby private access sites.

properties acquired for the Gaarde Street Realignment project, set minimum
bids for the sale of each parcel and proceed with the sale according to
Tigard Municipal Code Ch. 3.44.010.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Approval of the attached resolution, Authorizing the City Aministrator to
offer for sale to the highest bidder each of the three properties at or above
the minimum bid of $2,000, $1,300, and $900 for parcels 7,8 and 13
respectively. Also authorize the City Administrator to complete the sale for
any bid at or above the minimum bid.
INFORMATION SUMMARY
The surplus properties are the remnants of three parcels purchased for the
Gaarde Street realignment project. The portions necessary for the right-of-
way have been retained and the adjacent property owners have expressed an
interest in purchasing the surplus property. The appraiser who provided the
appraisal to purchase the properties has been consulted to determined the
minimum value of the surplus properties.
The parcels qualify as 'substandard undeveloped' property because they are
smaller than the minimun buildable size for the zone they are located. TMC
3.44.010 does not require a public hearing for disposing of substandard
undeveloped parcels. Adjoining property owners will be notified of the
proposal in accordance with TMC 3.44.010.
We see no need of the properties for Public use.

Shall the City Council authorize the inance Director and City Administrator
to take certain actions to issue refunding bonds.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends the approval of the attached resolution granting sufficient
authority to issue refunding bonds.
INFORMATION SUMMARY
Due to the decline in tax exempt interest rates it appears to be advantageous
to the City to refinance certain portions of existing outstanding debt.
Resolution 93-09 adopted on 3/16/93 authorized the staff to submit an advance
refunding plan to the state and to engage certain experts to begin the
process of preparing for a refunding sale.
Dain Bosworth, an investment banking firm, has been selected as underwriter
for the bond issue. We are presently working with Public Financial
Management, our financial advisors, on the draft official statement that will
be used to market the bonds.
The next step is to begin the process of marketing the proposed bond issue.
In order to proceed, the Council must authorize staff to structure the issue,
prepare and distribute the official statement, negotiate the terms of the
issue and undertake a variety of other actions common to the sale of bonds.
The attached resolution grants the necessary authority to the Finance
Director and the City Administrator to take the necessary steps to accomplish
the sale.
PROPOSED ALTERNATIVES

(Draft EIS).
We've identified and studied how each alternative
might improve travel. Now, technical experts will
evaluate how each alternative would affect the natural
environment, neighborhoods, economics and land
use. When this information is complete - about one
year from now - decision-makers will have a full
analysis of the impacts as a basis for their selection of
an alternative.
Five Alternatives To Be
Analyzes
In our June 1992 news!etter and at three' open
houses, we described four alternatives.' Since that
time, three of those alternatives have been 'modified
and one alternative has been added. The Western
Bypass Study Advisory Committees and Metro have
now approved five distinct alternatives (describLd
inside) for further study in a Draft Environmental
Impact Statement:
NO-BUl
TrarmportationSystem Wnag nt/PlannedProjesc;ts
Airte, ial Expansion/High Occupancy VehMe Express
.Bypass
Land Use, Transportation and Air Quality (LUTRAQ)
More detail on the schedule, decision-making process and Draft Environ-
mentai Impact Statement is included on the hack page.

The Alternatives
Over the next year, the Western Bypass Study technical
team will be analyzing the environmental impacts
(natural, community, neighborhood, economic and other)
of five alternatives for improving north-south and circum-
ferential travel in the study area. The alternatives differ
in their approach and use of roadway and transit solu-
tions, and one alternative focuses on land use changes.
Briefly, the No-Build Alternative is considered a "no
action" alternative for the study, including only those
roadway and transit improvements that already have
funding. The remaining four alternatives are called
"Build" alternatives, because they entail building im-
provements beyond those in the No-Build.
Forecast For Year 209 .
By the year2010, population in
the study area is expected to
grow by 60-0/a (about 148,000
more people) and employment
is expected to grow by 73%
(about 100, 000). Accordingly,
there will be a 66°% increase in
the number of teflcle trips to
1. t million per day-
No No-Build
Alternative
BUILD
The No-Build Altemative
was defined early in the
study process and includes the roadway and
transit systems that are in place now, plus the
planned improvements that already have commit-
ted funding. Defining and analyzing this alterna-
tive helps us understand what would happen if
none of the "build" alternatives were implemented.
The No-Build includes already-funded improve-
ments such as:
• Westside Light Rail to 185th Avenue.
• Expanding "feeder" bus service to support
light rail.
• A variety of already funded roadway
improvements.

Alternative
r+ur,., tMchl
This alternative tries to make the best use of
existing roadways and transit services, and what-
ever planned improvements are being actively
pursued by local, state and regional agencies.
This may sound similar to the Rio-Build Alternative,
but the difference is that these planned projects do
not yet have approved funding. It's likely they'll be
in place by 2010, but not guaranteed. This alterna-
tive includes two sets of elements.
Planned Projects include:
• Extending Westside Light Rail to Hillsboro.
• Expanding Hwy. 217 to three lanes in each
direction.
• Extending Beef Bend Road to Elsner Road.
• Extending Murray Blvd. to Hwy. 99W (one lane
in each direction, plus a center left-turn lane).
• Improving various intersections.
Transportation System Management elements
include:
• Adding express bus service on Hwy. 217.
• Expanding feeder bus service.
• Transportation Demand Management
Program - Parking charges to discourage
automobile use and free bus passes to encour-
age transit use.
• Demand Responsive Transit Program -
"Dial-a-Ride" bus service for areas not conve-
niently served by regular bus service.
• All projects in the No-Build Alternative.

Alternative
Although the name is a mouthful, the general
concept behind this alternative is easier to under-
stand. That concept is to expand and extend
existing roads in the urban area and add transit
service. This alternative can be broken into three
categories:
The arterial expansion elements would expand
or connect some of the existing unconnected
north-south and circumferential roadways and add
capacity to roadways that are highly congested.
These elements include:
• Expanding Hwy. 217 to four lanes in each
direction.
• Extending Murray Blvd. beyond Old Scholls
Ferry Rd. to 1-5 at a location between Bonita
Rd. and Carman Dr.
• Building a new expressway from 1-5 to Hwy.
99W in the Tualatin-Sherwood area.
• Expanding Hwy. 99W to six lanes from Bull
Mtn. Rd. to 1-5.
The express elements would address longer
distance travel on Hwy. 217 by:
Making one lane in each direction on Hwy.
217 an "express" lane, for longer distance
travel.
Limiting entrances and exits to this lane to:
1) 1-5 and Hwy. 99W for northbound traffic,
and 2) Hwy. 26 and Canyon Rd. for
southbound traffic.
The high occupancy vehicle (HOV) elements
focus on increasing opportunities for people to
carpool or ride buses (both are HOV's) by:
• Giving buses, carpools and other HOV's
"preferred access" at Hwy. 217 on-ramps.
This alternative also includes all projects and
programs in the No-Build and TSM Alternatives.

Hwy Alternative A
The Bypass Alternative
focuses primarily on building ti.. .
a new highway between 1-5 and Hwy. 26, beginning in r 't
the Tualatin area and ending at the Cornelius Pass or
185th Avenue interchange with Hwy. 26. The alterna-
tive also includes several transit service improve-
ments. Specific elements of this alternative include:
• Building a new four-lane, limited access highway
from 1-5 to Hwy. 26.f~
• Giving transit and HOV's preferred access on Hwy. sZ ice- J
217 ramps.
• Expanding Hwy. 99W to six lanes from Bull Mtn. r
Rd. to 1-5.
This alternative also includes all projects and programs
in the No-Build and TSM Alternatives.

N
Alternative a `
-o LU I HAO -"making the land use, .

connection" - was developed by 1000 Friends of Oregon • „
to evaluate if relocating land uses, supported by an •f a; y ,
expanded transit system, would result in a viable alterna-
W6- .4ij?o, tive. This alternative has two main components.
?
The land use component proposes "transit oriented°
I' L!
developments" that mix commercial, retail and residential r
land uses near transit lines/light rail stations. This
- c•
alternative assumes the same population and employ _ ;i ~•.w' -
ment projections as the other build alternatives, but
relocates higher density near transit.
The transportation component includes:
• Westside Lt. Rail (to Hillsboro).
• Hwy. 217 Lt. Rail (Beaverton to Tualatin) and an exten-
sion (Tualatin to Lake Oswego).
• Barbur Blvd. Lt. Rail (Tigard to Portland).
• Expanding Hwys. 217 and 26 to three lanes in each
direction.
• Expanding Farmington Rd. to two lanes each direction.
• Transportation Demand Management.
• Demand Responsive Transit.
• All projects in the No-Build Alternative.

What Is A Draft Environmental
Impact Statement?
A Draft EIS analyzes and compares the impacts of all
the alternatives. Those impacts include: socioeco-
nomic, noise, land use, water resources, transportation,
energy, soils, geology, historical and cultural resources,
hazardous materials, utilities, vegetation, wetlands,
wildlife, visual quality, and air quality.
Technical staff will spend about one year collecting and
analyzing relevant information and writing summary
reports for the Draft EIS.
After the Draft EIS is completed, ODOT will hold a
formal public hearing. Then Metro, Washington County
and the involved cities will select a preferred alternative.
That alternative could be one of the five alternatives
described inside or a combination of alternatives.
Whatever the alternative, ODOT will then prepare a final
environmental impact statement on that alternative.
Who Implements The
Selected Alternative?
Each alternative contains projects and programs that
would be implemented by agencies or jurisdictions other
than ODOT. That's why ODOT has stressed consensus
among these entities at each major step in the study.
After ODOT has completed the Final EIS on the
selected alternative, the next step is for each agency,
city and/or county to plan and implement the projects
and programs under its responsibility.
Summer 1994
present to the decision makers (the involved
cities' Washington County and Metro) the
Draft EIS results and a report on the public
hearing.
Summer 1995
Final EIS - ODOT will complete a Final EIS
on the selected alternative.
D® You Have A say? - -
Yes, you do! Before a preferred alternative is selected, ODOT will hold an open house to present the results of
the Draft EIS, then hold a formal public hearing. All public hearing testimony will be recorded, and along with
responses from ODOT, will be documented in a "Hearing Study Report" that will be presented to the decision
makers.
You also can always call or write with your comments or questions at any time during the study.

TIGARD CITY COUNCIL
Re: Written testimony in regard to Western Bypass Alternatives.
Dear members of Tigard City Council:
My family has lived in this area since the early 1930s and I myself
reside here still. I would like to testify both as a local person and as a
professional urban and regional planner specializing in urban design.
I would like to make a statement regarding my opposition to the
Western Bypass. I will give my full support to the LUTRAQ alternative
as well as any other suggestions that will promote community building
and improvements in planning practice.
Concepts like can LUTRAQ not only addresses transportation concerns
but relate to a larger scope of concerns including building better
communities. Today we have the opportunity to make a change in our
approach to transportation and other physical planning. We know that
sooner or later we will have to change our thinking and take a more
balanced view and practice very long range proactive sustainable
planning. We can make a commitment to preservation of community
identity as well as revitalize our historic centers.
LUTRAQ is just a start. I hope that you may become as interested as I
in improving our understanding of community identity and problem
solving for the future. All of us will have to act together to improve the
practice of local government and planning. The day of the easy fix is
over. A basic change in approach is called for.
I am happy to work further with yo" regarding development of
concrete planning and design processes and products. I have worked
with other communities in developing a new generation of codes,
regulations and specific projects.
THANK YOU
Sincerely

Should the City Council modify its Auc}ust 18, 1993 decision for the proposed
Vista Point subdivision with regard to 1) amount of developer-constructed
improvements for the SW Gaarde Street extension; 2) reimbursement to the
developer for construction of SW Gaarde and other public improvements; 3)
dedication of open space; and 4) narrowing internal subdivision -streets?
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Approve the attached resolution and proposed revisions to the final order.
INFORMATION SUMMARY
After reviewing the Planning Commission's approval of the Vista Point
subdivision at a public hearing on July 28, 1992, the City Council amended
the Commission's decision to require the developer of the subdivision to
extend and construct SW Gaarde Street to the northern edge of the property.
The Council adopted Resolution No. 92-43 on August 18, 1993 adopting findings
supporting that decision.
The applicants appealed that decision to the Oregon Land Use Board of Appeals
raising issues related to conditions of approval of the Council's decision
which required the subdivision developer to construct an extension of SW
Gaarde Street to the northern edge of the subject property, beyond the area
proposed for residential development. The Council directed staff to meet
with the applicants to attempt to reach an agreement can the disputed issues
rather than having the issue determined by LUBA. Subsequent discussions with
the applicants resulted in staff presenting a proposed agreement to the
Council in executive session. Upon direction by the City Council, the City
Attorney's office on March 1, 1993 filed a motion withdrawing the City's
decision on this application and staff set up a hearing for reconsideration
of the application. The City has until June 1, 1993 to issue an amended
decision on this matter.
Staff has drafted the attached recommended revisions to the August 18, 1993
resolution and final order corresponding to the recommended revisions listed
above. Revisions are hicrhlicxhtcad. The preliminary plat map is also attached.
PROPOSED ALTERNATIVES
r. 1. Approve the attached resolution and proposed revisions to the final order.
r
2. Modify and adopt the resolution and proposed revisions to the final order.
3. Readopt the August 18, 1993 resolution and final order.
FISCAL NOTES
The City may incur some future expense for constructing the final 140 feet of
SW Gaarde Street on this site, as well as additional expense for installing
the second lift of asphalt on SW Gaarde Street in phase two of the
subdivision.

CITY ADMIN OK. REQUESTED BY: _
ISSUE BEFOM THE COUNCIL
Shall the City Council offer for sal a parcel of vacant land on McDonald
street, set a minimum bid for the sa e of the parcel and proceed with the
sale in accordance with TMC 3.44.015.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends the approval of the attached resolution authorizing the
sale, setting the minimum bid and directing staff to proceed with the sale.
INFORMATION SUMMARY
In the early 1980's both the Tigardville Heights Streets and the McDonald
Street Sewer local improvement districts were completed in the area of this
property. This property was assessed for its share of the costs of both
improvements which at the time amounted to $25,763. The property owners
apparently never made any payments on their assessments and the County
foreclosed on the property in 1986 to collect delinquent taxes. For several
years, we have been trying to obtain title to the property to satisfy our
delinquent assessments. In February 1993, the County finally allowed the
City to gain title by paying the back taxes which amounted to $1,100.
Having clear title to the property, we now would like to sell it at a fair
market price to satisfy as much of the assessment liens as possible and
extinguish the balance. Including principal and interest, the total liens
outstanding on the property amount to $51,850 as of April 27, 1993.
The appraised value of the property according to a recent appraisal is
$43,200. We recommend that the Council use this amount as the minimum bid.
We see no City need to keep the property for City purposes and therefore
recommend that the council, after holding the required hearing, authorize the
sale of the property.
PROPOSED ALTERNATIVES
•Approve sale of property and set minimum bid.
*Retain property for public use.
FISCAL NOTES
The sale of the property will allow the City to recoup the original
assessment of $25,763 and a significant portion of the accrued interest.
