STUDY SESSION
JOINT MEETING WITH CITIZEN INVOLVEMENT TEAM (CIT) FACILITATOR
Community Involvement Coordinator Newton facilitated discussion on this agenda item.
Issues from the January joint meeting held with the CIT and Council members were
reviewed:
• Attendance - it was noted that June attendance was low. Ms. Newton commented
this had been the experience during the summer months last year as well. The
CITs will not meet in July, but will meet again in August.
• Cityscape - Ms. Newton distributed a copy of the soon-to-be-released Cityscape
which highlighted the CITs accomplishments. She noted she may incorporate
something similar into CIT meeting notices.
• Daycare had been listed as a potential service offered at CIT meetings. Ms.
Newton noted preliminary investigations into such a program indicated there may
be some concerns with regard to liability.
• Joint issues - it was noted that issues with regard to schools and Tri-Met have
k been topics of discussion at CIT meetings.
• Present options - it was noted that the CITs were working on identifying options
to resolve issues as they reviewed different subject matters.
CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES - JUNE 20, 1995 - PAGE 1 a~

Discussed process - process concerns were still being noted, especially in light
of a recent issue with a CIT report pertaining to the 130th/Winterlake bridge
connection considered for the Capitai Improvement Project list.
Fallowing are some of the comments and highlights of the conversation which occurred
among the City Council members, Facilitators, and Staff Resource Teams.
8 Members should be comfortable in knowing that the action taken at the meeting
will be correctly communicated to the decisionmakers.
• Question as to whether or not there had been any further consideration of the
"cook book" idea with regard to giving a "recipe" for process items. This book
would contain a listing of what is needed to work through different processes; i.e.,
Comprehensive Plan Amendments.
C Suggestion that if attendance is low, then perhaps meetings should be canceled
for the entire summer.
Suggestion that meetings could be held outdoors.
a Notation that schools are closed (with the exception of the high school), and that
most of the August CIT meetings will be held at City Hall.
Discussed communication to City Council, including the form letter idea, writing
the letter to go to City Council at the meeting before the CIT adjourns, and
expressing minority opinions as well.
C Facilitator advised she reminds people that they can write their own letter, call
f their decisionmakers and/or staff, or sign up to talk to City Council on the Visitor's
Agenda.
• Suggestion for a groundrule which states that in order 'Lo participate, an individual
should he in attendance. There was an argument presented that at times it may
be appropriate for a CIT to receive and read a letter to the membership prsenting
another opinion, even though the author and supporters of the opinions contained
in that letter are not present at the meeting. People who do not agree with the
Majority should also know that their concerns will be registered.
• Concerns that the CITs never hear back whether or not Council received their
information.
• Concern noted that people do not know which CIT they are in.

e Ms. Nev=ton noted that the Staff Resource Teams should be comfortable in
presenting options to the CIT groups. Several Facilitators nOLed their appreciation
of the Resource Teams. Some concern was expressed by Michael Anderson,
Staff Resource Team member, that the Resource Team may be taking too much
4 of a lead.
• Sue Carver, Facilitator, noted it would depend on the matter with regard to what
role the Resource Team member should take. If it is a question of process, then
the Resource Team member would be relied upon to give the CITs a thorough
amount of information. Diane Jones, West CIT Facilitator, noted the CIT
members need to be investigators; the Resource Team often has information that
is needed with regard to process.
• Resource Team member Karl Kaufman noted it would be helpful to get
information back to the CITs with regard to correspondence from others; i.e.,
information from the Oregon Department of Transpor itation. Ranaye Hoffman, CIT
Facilitator, noted that she was concerned that it was unknown how much impact
a CIT letter has on the Council. She questioned what the City Council does with
the information shared by the CITs.
• Ms. Hoffman referred to a recent situation where CIT members expressed
concern with how their testimony was received at a Planning Commission
meeting. This occurred during testimony on the Capital Improvement Project
Priority listing hearing before the Planning Commission. Members had requested
that a park be considered on Bull Mountain; members expressed frustration when
their testimony was not well ! eceived. Some discussion followed over the
particular proposal for the park land with regard to location and potential Metro
Greenspace funding. Ms. Hoffman stressed that her concerns were for the way
the CIT members were treated at the Council meeting. Councilor Hawley advised
she hoped then: Facilitator encourage members to not give up and to continue
to participate "participation is the key to success."
• Diane Jones advised that Facilitators do encourage their members to participate.
There was brief discussion on this point, with suggestions and observations on
the decisionmaking process and presentation of opinions.
• Ms. Newton summarized "what's next":
- Groundruies - IVake available at meetings
- Focus on accomplishments
- Re-visit Resource Teams' role
- Communication issues
- Make sure information is getting back to the CITs as to what happened
with their Council input

Facilitator Training - Encourage people to come to CIT meetings
• Ms. Newton advised she would be sending a questionnaire to anyone who has
attended a CIT meeting at least once.
• Facilitator Nancy Smith opened discussion with regard to the neutrality of the
Facilitator.
Ms. Newton advised that Facilitators should remain as neutral as possible so
people who do not agree with the general tone of the conversation do not become
intimidated by the person who is facilitating the meeting.
There was discussion on the Facilitator's role. Councilor Rohlf noted that if there
is an issue a Facilitator feels strongly about, then the Facilitator could call upon
another Facilitator to preside over that meeting. Councilor Scheckla advised he
also thought the Facilitator should remain neutral.
Council meeting recessed at 7:35 p.m.
Council meeting reconvened at 7:46 p.m.
TIGARD FEED STORE OPTIONS
• City Administrator Monahan updated Council on this agenda item. Also present
were members representing the following interests: Tigard Area Chamber of
Commerce, Tigard Area Historical Preservation Association, and the Downtown {
Merchant's Association. City Administrator Monahan distributed handouts which
included the Tigard Area Chamber of Commerce proposal to City Council relating
to the Johnson Feed Store property; a letter dated June 16, 1995 from Gary Lass
of TAHPA; a letter dated June 12, 1995 to the Tigard Area Chamber of
Commerce; a document labeled "Exhibit 1" (sales agreement from TAHPA
between TAHPA and the Chamber of Commerce); and a document labeled
"Exhibit II; (Historic Conservation Easement).
Mr. Monahan introduced the next step in the discussion which was for a
compromise.
Chamber of Commerce representatives Nancy Novak and Pam Benson addressed
Council. Ms. Novak, Chamber of Commerce President, apprised Council of the
Chamber's proposal (see packet information for written text). In summary, the
Chamber is looking for -a permanent home. They believe the costs involved will
be a financial obligation they can meet. The Chamber recognized the importance

Ems
of working with the Downtown Merchant's Association with regard to space for
parking. A building with 1,200 to 1,500 square feet would meet the Chamber's -
^weds. The Cha~..ber is also willing to work with the Historical Society to provide
room for historical exhibits and use of the office during non-Chamber hours. The
Chamber is prepared to reimburse the City for the cost of the property.
There was a brief discussion on a possible joint purchase (City of Tigard and
Chamber of Commerce) of the property from Burlington Northern.
Tigard Area Historical Preservation Association representatives Gary Lass,
President, and Judy Fessler, member of the TAHPA organization, outlined their
interests and concerns. Mr. Lass advised that last December the TAHPA
organization was contacted by a relative of Mr. Johnson's with regard to TAHPA's
possible interest in the Tigard Feed and Seed building. Mr. Johnson wishes to
retire. TAHPA began inquiries with the Railroad to acquire the land. Mr. Lass
then summarized the possibilities of this building both as an historical focal point
as well as a building offering multi-purpose rooms. TAHPA, in their talks with the
Railroad, found the Railroad was not flexible with regard to purchase of the land.
In May, the Mayor, Chamber of Commerce, the Downtown Merchant's
Association, and TAHPA met. At this time it was learned that the City may have
an opportunity to buy the land. The Downtown Merchant's Association wanted a
parking lot. There was discussions of moving the buy"ding forward and restoring
the biiildina as an office building. It was noted a drawing had been done which
depicted saving the original structure (2,300 square feet) plus providing for 24
parking spaces. Mr. Lass advised the TAHPA group should not have to donate
the building without compensation.
Ms. Fessler also commented on the negotiations to date. She noted the railroad
was requiring the building be moved. She advised this would probably mean the
building could not be placed on the National Historic Register. She also noted
there is an offer on the table from TAHPA to the Chamber of Commerce. Ms.
Fessler distributed a document dated June 20, 1995, outlining options and
possible scenarios that could happen with the Tigard Feed Store, the City of
Tigard, Chamber, Merchants, and TAHPA. (This document is on file with the
Council packet material.) Also distributed to the Mayor and Council was a
chronological history of the project undertaken by TAHPA, as well as drawings
showing possible layouts for the building and parking spaces, and a drawing of
the Tigard Feed and Seed building moved forward on the lot.
There was discussion on the negotiations by the TAHPA and the Chamber of
Commerce. In addition, the TAHPA organization could assist Mr. Johnson insofar
as he could receive a tax benefit because he is donating the building.
CITY COUNCIL M-ETING MINUTES - JUNE 20, ?995 - PAGE 5
There was discussion on accommodating the interests of TAHPA and the
Chamber of Commerce with the resources the Chamber has available. Pam
Benson, Chamber of Commerce member, advised the Chamber has funding
available; however, there are difficulties with determining how much the Chamber
could afford, given the proposed cost of the building of $24,000 payable to
TAHPA, the need to address the condition of the build=ing, the cost of moving of
the building, as well as the fact that there may be some costs associated with
removing hazardous products from the-Feed Store.
Michael Marr of the Downtown Merchant's association advised that the Downtown
Merchants are looking at long-term revitalization of the downtown on Main Street.
The merchants are hoping to create a downtown similar to the Sellwood or
Belmont areas. They believe the downtown area is something special, and would
serve as a focal point for community identity. He noted the need to maintain the
central business district, advising of short-sighted planning in the past. There is
a great need for parking. Mr. Marr referred to a poll which he had done with the
Downtown Merchants. He mailed out, and received approximately 20 responses
out of 60 distributed. He advised there were different funding options identified
with regard to parking. He advised that some merchants have parking already
and do not feel they should also contribute to additional parking in the area.
Some merchants feel this is public parking, and therefore, their tax dollars should
be used to purchase the property for parking. Four merchants expressed an
interest in putting in $2,500 to $3,500 for a one-time contribution. Leasing parking
spaces was also an option.
Mr. Marr was hoping the Chamber and TAHPA groups could come to agreement
in a "win-win" situation. He advised he hoped the Chamber of Commerce could
maintain a presence on Main Street and the Feed and Seed Store would retain x
a historic flavor on the street. He advised the area has strong potential and he
fully supported TAHPA; however, he did not know whether the historical society
should make "money off of this deal."
Mr. Marr advised that he hoped the City would recognize that making a purchase
of the property would be an investment. He advised he did not believe the City
was taking a risk by purchasing this property, because of the property's value.
The purchase for the intent of parking is for the public good.
In response to a question from Councilor Hawley, Ms. Fessler explained the
negotiations efforts by TAHPA in their attempt to obtain the land from the
Railroad. These strategies were not fulfilled because the City became involved.
TAHPA would like to use the building for their meetings once a month, noting they
recognize the need for parking by the Downtown Merchants. The TAHPA
meetings would be held in the evening, and would not conflict with most- of the
other businesses.

MOSES=
Mr. Monahan advised that Council would discuss the property purchase in
Executive Session. He also noted the three groups would need to continue to
work on a coordinated proposal with regard to the building and use of land.
Meeting recessed at 8:85 p.m.
Meeting reconvened at 8:50 p.m.
JOINT MEETING WITH TREE TASK FORCE
Tree Task Force members who signed up on the sign-up sheet included the
following: Christy Herr, Sally Christensen, Robert Gillmor, Kent Patton, Doug
Smithey, Dan Mitchell, and John Benneth.
Mr. John Benneth gave an overview of the Task Force efforts over the past
several months. Mr. Benneth referred to the group's success in working out a
consensus incorporating a wide range of viewpoints. Mr. Benneth reviewed
elements of the proposed ordinance which are contained in the Council packet.
The ordinance attempts to deal with trees in sensitive lands and respects the
property rights of the average homeowner. In addition, the ordinance includes a
prohibition against commercial forestry. Mr. Benneth expressed his appreciation
on behalf of the Task Force for the staff members, Senior Planners Dick
Bewersdorff and Carol Landsman who gave up many evenings to meet with the
Task Force. He also acknowledged Councilor Hawley for her work with the Task
Force.
Mr. Dan Mitchell presented a video tape of trees throughout Tigard. The video
tape illustrated trees in neighborhoods and trees in sensitive land areas. it also
depicted developments that were done with saving trees, those developments
which removed the trees, and illustrated what the Task Force was hoping to
achieve. The -Task Force also noted the importance of saving dead trees for
wildlife habitat.
Tigard City Council members expressed appreciation for the work done by the
Task Force. It was noted this appeared to be a good solution for both the tree
and property rights protection issues.
There was a brief discussion on the elements of the proposed ordinance. The
next step will be to schedule a public hearing. (Note: Tentatively scheduled for
9/12/95.)
CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES - JUNE 20, 1995 - PAGE 7
NON-AGENDA ITEMS
• Tigard Promenade
Senior Planner Bewersdorff reviewed the conditions contained in the Final Order
with regard to the proposed Tigard Promenade. This development will be located
along Highway 99W at the intersection of the King City street of Royalty Parkway.
Senior Pianner Bewersdorff addressed concerns expressed by Councilor Hunt
with regard to traffic patterns and access to and from the pacific Highway
entrances. Also addressed were conditions placed on the development with
regard to noise emission. Transportation improvements were reviewed, including
the conditions placed to address cueing, clear vision, and safe exiting and
entrance into the development.
After discussion, Council consensus was that they would not call this issue up for
further review.
Citizen Involvement Team Updates
Council consensus was to place a regular agenda item at the Work Session
meeting (second Council meeting of every month). The purpose would be to
update Council on the issues discussed at the CIT meetings.
• Gray Property Purchase
This item is tentatively scheduled to be discussed at the June 27 meeting. The
Gray property is adjacent to Cook Park. The question is does Tigard want to
pursue the purchase?
Councilor Hunt suggested that a landscaped area featuring a recirculating water
fountain or stream, such as the fountain at the Sequoia Parkway or Summerfeld
areas be considered.
• Music in the Park
Council received information prepared by Matthew Ryan entitled "Facilities
Development - Short Thoughts." (Information on file with the Council packet
material).
City Administrator Monahan was authorized to spend up to $4,000 on construction
materials for a temporary stage; labor to be donated. There is possibility of
donations from businesses such as Elmo Stud's or Ernst.
The Committee will decide within one month if they want a temporary stage built.
If they decide not to build the temporary stage, then they will look at renting a
stage.

• Cost of Living Allowance
City Administrator Monahan advised. The 1995-96 budget included funding to
allow up to a 3% cost of living adjustment for non-represented personnel.
Although the funds were allocated, Council was asked to give direction on the
cost of living percentage to be given and the effective dare. OPEU's President
has been advised that Council has not approved a COLA for represented staff.
Discussions with OPEU regarding a COLA will take place through collective
bargaining.
After discussion, Council consensus was to allow a 3% cost of living adjustment
for non-represented personnel, effective July 1, 1995.
• Washington County Public Officials' Caucus
Washington County Public Officials Caucus will be held Thursday, July 13 from
7 to 9 p.m. The topic is Metro 2040.
• FOCUS
FOCUS met Wednesday night, June 14. The results of the Total Water
Resources Management workshops were presented. During the coming year,
FOCUS will present findings to the City Council to consider implementing the
recommendations.
• Durham Road (Transfer of Jurisdiction)
Council discussed the possibility of the State letting Tigard have jurisdiction over
Durham Road from Boones Ferry to Hall Blvd. There is a need to determine
costs, issues, and whether this is something ODOT will even consider. Also of
concern is installing a traffic signal on 79th/Durham.
• 'I 30th/Winterlake
Councilor Rohlf noted that most of the activity surrounding the 130thAvinterlake
connection has inovled only staff; Council has not been involved. The success
of the Tree Task Force Committee was referred to as a method to bring differing
viewpoints together to form consensus. Councilor Rohlf proposed bringing
together people who had been in favor of the bridge connection and those who
were opposed, to review options to relieve traffic concerns on Brittany and
address safety and traffic impact in the entire neighborhood.
Discussion followed. Councilor Rohif proposed that engineering and work on the
bridge connection be stopped for approximately five weeks in order to allow time
for the Task Force to look at all issues. Councilor Rohlf advised he had contacted
some of the concerned parties an both sides of the issue. Mr. Gene McAdams
and Ms. Kathleen McDonald advised they would be willing to serve on this Task
Force.

City Administrator Monahan advised City staff had received a telephone message
from Mr. McAdams, stating that he would not want the engineering and design
work to stop.
Councilor Rohlf noted he would not want to give the appearance of stalling the
project. However, he would like to have the engineering work suspended while
the Task Force was meeting over the next several weeks.
Mayor Nicoli and Councilor Hawley noted they would be in favor of the Task
Force to "heal wounds."
Councilors Scheckla and Hunt expressed concerns that stopping the bridge
connection should not be considered as one of the options. Councilor Hunt
advised that a vote on this issue had been taken by Council, with the connection
receiving the majority vote. In addition, the people in the area have had their
opportunity to follow the process and also have a legal option still available
to them.
Council voted on the recommendation by Councilor Rohif to move forward with
the formation of the Task Force and to hold off on the engineering work for
approximately five weeks (until August 1, 1995), and that Community Involvement
Coordinator Liz Newton act as facilitator to the group.
Mayor Nicoli and Councilors Hawley-and Rohlf voted "yes" on Councilor Rohlfs
proposal; Councilors Hunt and Scheckla voted "no."
Council went into Executive Session at 11:00 p.m.

TIG ARID AREA CHAMBER OF COMMERCE PROPOSAL TO CITY COUNCIL
RELATING TO TIDE QL D JOHNSON FEED STORE PROPERTY
The Tigard Chamber hve been looking for a permanent home for several years.
Since we are a non-profit organization, our options have been limited. We are
excited about the opportunity to purchase property and to remain on Main Street.
Although there are other locations in the Tigard community that would be suitable
for efface space, we feel that Main Street is the best location for our organization.
After evaluating the potential for this site and the costs involved we also feel that
this is a financial obligation that we can meet. We are willing to work with the
Historical Society in preserving the essence of the feed store., Unto more
investigation is done into AIDA requirements and the existing structure, it will be
difficult to determine to what extent we can preserve the existing structure.
The Chamber also recognizes the importance of working with the Merchant's
Association on this project. The downtown area is experiencing a severe parking
problem that will only continue to get worse. We recognize the merchants' need for
parking and we see this as the highest and best use of the majority of the property at
this location.
The Chamber is somewhat flexible to the size of the structure we will need. A
building 1,200 to 1,500 square feet will meet our needs. We are also willing to work
with the Historical Society to provide room for historical exhibits and use of the
office during non-chamber hours as we do for all groups in the community that
request use of the Chamber office.`
We are prepared, at this time, to reimburse the City of Tigard for the cost of the
property. We presently have a substantial sum of money in reserve to do this. We
4 also have a loan commitment that will immediately allow us to purchase the
f property. We do not wish the City to financially support this-portion of the project,
5. .
Finally, we again wish to express our thanks to the Tigard City Council for this
consideration. The opportunity to have permanent office space along with the
preservation of a long-standing structure on Main Street and addressing the
downtown merchants' parking concerns will be a solution that will benefit us all.
This solution will not totally address all of the desired needs of all three groups, but
will substantially meet the goals of each group.

Dear Mir. Lass:
We are excited at the opportunity to work with the Tigard Area Historical and
Preservation Association and to take part in the historical renovation of the
Tigard Feed and Seed budding on fain Street. We hr-ie carefully reviewed and
discussed your offer dated June 12,1995, and world like to put forth what we feel
we can contribute to this project. We have also carefully analyzed our financial
situation and do not want to overextend ourselves in a way that would jeopardize
the restoration efforts that you wish to achieve.
We feel that we can financially afford to restore and remodel up to approximately
1,200 square feet of the existing building. As in our previous discussions with
representatives from your group and the downtown merchants, we feel that this
should be taken from the original portion of the building.
Our intent is that we have a facility for our existing staff and a small meeting room.
It has always been the Chamber's position that our facilities have been available
for all community groups to use and we would certainly extend these same guaran-
tees to TAHPk Some of the underlying terms that you requested would pore
problems for our.mortgage underwriter. As in any business transaction, the mortgage
y underwriter must be placed in first position As a result, we will need to carefully
discuss these conditions with you and our mortgage underwriter. Those portions
of your agreement where you are requesting permission to use a likeness, attach
a permanent plaque and be given first right of refusal should the Chamber ever
sell the property would probably be agreeable to us.
In analyzing the costs of the property, permit fees and restoration activities, we
cannot at this time pay you $1,200 per year purchase fee. This additional cost, which
would be above and beyond our mortgage payment, is beyond our cash flow capacity.
We realize that the TAHPA would like to preserve the entire portion of the existing
building but unfortunately our financial situation would not permit this.

We feel that this entire effort is a joint effort between the Downtown Business
Merchants, TABPA, and the Chamber. It is in everyone's best interest to work
with each entity. The restoration of the entire original structure may not make
the parking lot a feasible option for the development of a downtown parking
area for the merchants.
After reviewing our letter, we would gladly arrange a time when we can meet
and further discuss each other's goads and objectives.

Re: Tigard Feed Store
To:Tigard Area Chamber of Commerce President and Board Members:
Over the last month or so, the City of Tigard Staff and the Mayor have held several meetings with the
Tigard Chamber of Commerce representatives, S. Carolyn Long and Pam Benson, representatives from the
Tigard Downtown Merchants Association and representatives from the Tigard Area Historical and
Preservation Association to discuss ways to generate a public parking area while swing the Tigard Feed
Store. The general ideas put forth at those meetings were that the City would negotiate to purchase the
property around the feed store if the other three parties could come to an agreement on the disposition of
the feed store building. The main sticking points, in our opinion, have been that the chamber MUST own
the building and that the building MUST be reduced significantly in size. From the onset of these meetings,
TAHPA has been willing to negotiate these points in good faith, even though TAHPA had already signed
an agreement with the building's current owner to acquire the building.
Since impromptu meetings are not the best forum in which to negotiate terms of an agreement, and since
none of the other parties have yet to bring a formal proposal to the table, TAHPA respectfully submits the
following written proposal package to the Tigard Area Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors.
TAHPA has received permission from Hal Johnson, et al, present owner of the feed store building, to sell or
otherwise convey the building to the Chamber or another 3rd party through TAHPA so that he may receive
full benefit of tax deductible donation. TAHPA proposes to convey the title of the building to the Chamber
pursuant to mutual acceptance of terms and agreements set forth in this proposal-
Included in this proposal please find:

This proposal is also based on the following assumptions:
1. The City of Tigard will purchase the band
2. The Peed store building will be relocated and restored within the present property boundaries by the
Chamber of Commerce
If any of the above assumptions change then fiuther negotiations will be necessary.
Time is of the essence, so TAHPA is requesting that a written response showing agreement or counter
proposal be made to the TABPA Board of Directors President Gary Lass by Friday, June 16th at 5PM. If
no written response is received, TABPA will assume negotiations are terminated by the Chamber and
TAHPA will pursue other avenues. Your response can be faxed to Gary Lass at 639-1216.
Regards,

LASS,
President TAHPA
PS Let us all try to remember whom it is we serve. If we fail to come to an agreement, the greatest loss
will be to the Citizens of Tigard. This unique historic building is one of the few tangible reminders left of
this City's agricultural heritage and it deserves to be saved.

Options and possible Scenarios that could happen with the Tigard

OPTION I
Based on YES for the City of Tigard to Purchase Property With
Chamber as'Buyer of building from TAHPA.
1 A written agreement from Burlington Northern in Texas for the
City to purchase property. TAHPA would provide 3ohnson with a
Charitable Donation document and the Chamber would provide a
preservation easement agreement to TAHPA
2.TAHPA would be out of the picture except for the arrangements
with the Chambef.
OPTION II
Chamber and City Say NO
Documentation from the City that negotiations have ended with
the railroad and TAHPA* would be able to step back in with
negotiations with the Railroad.
2. TAHPA* would raise funds to move and restore the building.
TAHPA* would need agreement for purchase, lease of property that
the will building sits upon.
3. TAHPA* would own the building and manage it.
OPTION1 IIi
City buys property - Chamber iVOY involved
_AHPA* wog,-' -a-se funds to :hove and resto:._
TAHPA* would =eed agreement for purchase, lease of property that
t. a~__ding sits upon.
would own 'the bui=ding and manage, funds

I
-ire The bottom line reality is that this unique symbol of the
agriculture heritage of Tigard will be lost to Citizens of Tigard
now and in the future.
The City will lose owning a very strategic piece of property in
downtown Tigard.

I feel that we can fill a need for other non-profit organizations
to locate here that would compliment both our organizations.
Fund raising, I am personally committed to put my money where my
mouth is and start a Trust Account with $ 1,000 of our own
personal money in the Name of Save The Tigard Feed Store. I have
to believe that other businesses or individuals will come forward
to also place their money into this Trust. If the project does not
go forward, their money will be refunded.
Other fund raising efforts can be done but we need a decision from
the Council as soon as possible to make plans.

From Judy Fessler, Chr
Save The Tigard Feed Store
Below please find a chronological order to the project undertaken
by `YzAHPA and this chairperson.
January 95, Hal Johnson contacted TARPA to ask whether we would
be interested in the Feed Store if TAHPA could find a secure place
fn-r- i+ =4 +70+mr }s,v m~ `~i rpa q+ nff .ei nr no o i of i nq wi +-1^ R»rl i nrit nn
Northern Railroad.
TAHPA did look at other property suitable to move the building but
couldn't find any present available inventory on
Main St.
TAHPA started negotiations with the railroad with the district
property manager in Seattle.
TAHPA representative informed the Merchants Association what they
where in the process of doing. Shortly thereafter, we learned that
the City of Tigard might be interested in purchasing the land for
us. if the Chamber and Merchants could work out a plan for all
involved. It was decided that TAHPA would be the focal point and
contact to the public. At that time, TAHPA was informed by the
Railroad that we could not negotiate further with them that they
were dealing with the City of Tigard directly. TAHPA was then taken
out of the negotiating loop with the railroad thus eliminating the
possiblity of the rairoad donating the entire parcel to TAHPA.
In Order to move this project ahead with the Downtown Merchants and
the Chamber of Commerce, and to Save the Feed Store from demolition
TAHPA has made the following concessions with the above groups:
1. TAHPA agrees to the moving of the building to gain more access
for parking for the Merchants. Because the building will loose all
grandfather status, this will entail. a 'Large financial investment
of up front money for the move, foundation, foundation permits, new
water, power, sewer hookups. and demolition of portions of the
building.
2. TAHPA has made the concession to reduce the present size of the
building from approximately 5500 sq feet to 2400 Sq feet about 575
less than you see today.
3. By Moving and reducing the building by this amount TAHPA was
negated any good possibility to qualify for a National Historic
Designation. Thus eliminating any possibility for grants.
4. On June 12, 1995, TAZPA offered the Building to the Chamber for
some enumeration and preservation easement for them to own, move,
restore the building.
5. Time TAHPA would like to have the council make a decision on
the purchase of the property, The Johnsonn's life has been put on
hold and TAHPA needs to also know if this is a viable option for
TAHPA and the Johnsons. TAHPA needs to approach this project in
a very orderly manner so as to not risk the conditions of the
existing arrangements ':he Johnson's have with the railroad.
I Hone this gives You a general overview on some of the discussions
that TAHPF has had with all concerned. I would be happy to answer
any esti.ons.

COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY
ISSUE/AGENDA TITLE: Zone Ordinance Amendment ZOA 92-0004 (Tree Removal)
PREPARED BY: Dick Bewersdorff DEPT HEAD OK itr CITY ADMIN OK
ISSUE BEFORE THE COUNCIL
Should the City revise the Community Development Code by adopting a revised Code Section
.18.150 regarding tree removal? The attached ordinance reflects the work of the Tree Task
Force. The Task Force will be reporting their recommendations at the June 20,1995 work
session with Council. Staff 11as provided packet information as if it were a public hearing
agenda item. The attached information is what we would expect to provide the Council
if there are no changes In the recommendations of the Task Force.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Accept the Tree Tusk Force Report.
INFORMATION SUMMARY
he Planning Division began drafting a new Community Development Code Section 18.150
oncerning tree removal in 1991. Original drafts included relatively minor amendments to the
existing code. Because of increased citizen interest, the scope of changes increased. After
Planning Commission deliberations, the City Council held a public hearing on the proposed
ordinance in July, 1994 and a later work session in August, 1994. An ordinance was drafted to
reflect changes made as a result of those meetings as well as an additional public hearing on
October 11 1994 and work sessions on September 27, 1994 and November 15, 1994.
On November 15, 1994 the City Council passed a resolution to appoint a Tree Task Force.
Membership was composed of a cross-section of community interests including those favoring
tree protection regulations and those representing property rights concerns. Working with
staff, the Task Force met numerous times to develop a consensus approach of when to protect
trees without unduly infringing on property rights. The Task Force worked hard to overcome
many polarized issues. A February 28, 1995 memo from the Tree Task Force to the City Council
outlined a tree protection program that differed in approach from previous draft ordinances.
The program centered) on identifying when tree protection is important to the community and
when these goals deserve to be weighted more than property rights and vice-versa. The
February 28 memo is attached. Tree removal permits L✓ould be required only on sensitive lands.
A tree plan would be required for the development process. The Task Force was directed to
complete their work on the draft ordinance. This culminated on April 26, 1995 with the Task
Force completing their review of the draft ordinance. The attached ordinance is the result of
the Task Force's review.
s,.
Besides the tree removal permit for sensitive lands and the tree plan for development, the draft
rdsinance dated April 27, 1995 also includes a prohibition against commercial forestry (ten or
more trees per acre, per calendar year for sale). Commercial forestry does not include Christmas
tree production or land registered as tax deferred tree farms, or small woodlands which are
permitted. The new draft also Includes a range of mitigation based on the amount of trees
removed; approval standards for tree removal on sensitive lands that incorporate the Unified
Sewerage Agency erosion control standards applicable to all development; and the incentive
and penalty provisions that the Council requested in their previous review.
The proposed ordinance will substantially reduce the number of tree removal permits from
previous ordinance drafts. The tree protection plans will be incorporated into project plan
review without the need for a permit.
OTHER ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED
1. Revise the attached ordinance.
2. Leave the existing code as is and move to reject the ordinance.
FISCAL NOTES
f The average estimated cost of processing a tree removal permit was $180 with previous drafts.
Since the proposed the ordinance proposed by the Task Force does not require notification of
amodiacent property owners and is administrative in nature, the average estimated processing cost
- f a tree removal permit under the April 27, 1995 draft is expected to be $72. Based on the
1984 Council resolution establishing planning fees at 80 percent of cost, the proposed fee
should be $58 plus $1 for each additional tree over 5 removed.

TO: Tigard City Council
FROM: Tree Task Force
DATE: February 28, 1995
SUBJECT: _ Tree Protection Program
Rased on our discussions, the Tree Task Force has developed a tree protection
proggggram that differs in approach from the original proposed ordinance. We have
developed our approach by identifying when tree protection is important to the
community and when these goals deserve more weight than private property interests
and vice-versa.
1) ON SENSITIVE LANDS (which would include steep slopes, lands within a
stream corridor or lands within the buffer and area of a wetlands) the City will
require a tree permit. The applicant must prove that removal of the tree or
removal and mitigation will not decrease the level of erosion control or water
quality protection the tree provided. The City will produce a map showing
which areas are affected.
2) The City will conduct a SIGNIFICANT TREE study including review of other
comma nities' work, definition, identification and inventory. This information
will be used differently during the development process than it will be when
development is not occurring. In the later category, the City will not prevent
the removal of the tree but will offer incentives such as maintenance services
and recognition. During development, the City may not allow removal of a
significant tree, but will provide incentives such as those proposed in the
existing draft tree ordinance. This study will also include an evaluation of
when and where the City should apply commercial forestry practices.
t 3) DURING DEVELOPMENT, the City should require a tree plan which will
include an arborist analysis of existing trees, strategies for saving existing
trees or mitigating tree removal for a goal of no net tree loss. Significant trees
and trees in sensitive lands would be protected. The City will offer incentives
Ankh such as the lessening of other development restrictions, as appropriate.

4) .DL&B CORRIDORS, FORESTS, NATURAL LANDDS wiii be protected
through the goal v comprehensive plan process and through the city land
acquisluon program (which has begun v*ath attempts to purchase the red cedar
forest in the Metzger area).
5) Tigard should explore obtaining a Tree Qft LISA designation. This program
requires adoption of ordinance provisions that:
® cover the planting, maintenance of trees on city property
• development of an urban forestry plan which would include
a street tree inventory, educational projects, planting
programs and beautification
® establishment of a tree commission, and
® development of arboricultural specifications, all in concert
with a city arbcrist.

facility - both to serve their artistry and to attract audiences - is the best reason to consider
investing in new arts spaces with such area businesses as Music in the Park, City of Tigard,
Broadway Rose,Theatre Company, Arts Commission of Tigard, Tigard Chamber of Commerce,
Washington` County . Visitors Association, Regional Arts Culture Council and the Community
Development Committee, to name a few. .
These are the steps we are taking to build new arts spaces in Washington County:
1. Convene a general interest meeting, facilitated by a neutral and respected individual; all
ideas were acceptable. Consensus that some sort of a facility is needed. Preliminary
conversation with City "Produce evidence of interest".
2• Establish an Action Force with a six-month timeline to explore feasibility, possible
configurations, costs and operational schemes. Petitions "I am interested in seeing Tigard
havegetter performing arts facilities" circulate, obtain 2,000+ signatures to form first
mailing list.
Three` sub-committees to be formed: Design, Operations, Fundraising. Each to do research
and hold forums with both artists and audience members.
3. Present petitions to City with request for $5,000 to prepare a complete report of feasibility,
needs and resources. A part time coordinator hired.
4. Each sub-committee meets monthly. Agendas sent to all interested persons; summaries sent

0 IEGON TOURISM ALLIANCE GETS $1.8 MILLION
IN ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT LOTTERY FUNDS
(Portland)... Governor Roberts announced approval today of $1,849,390 in economic
development lottery funding for the Oregon Tourism Alliance (OTA).region made up of
Clackamas, Clatsop, Hood River, Multnomah, Tiiiamook, rd Washington countie~r
The funding includes $1,649,390 in Regional Strategies Funds-and-$200;006 in
Strategic Reserve Funds.
The OTA award will provide funding for 14 projects included in OTA's regional
interstate tourism strategy. Local, federal, state and private sources will provide an
additional $8,798,817 in funds, bringing the total strategy funding to $10,648,207.
The Employment Division estimates that 28 direct and 351 indirect jobs will be created
as a result of this strategy.
"This tourism strategy makes the most of the region's scenic and historic attractions,
and will draw tourists year-round," Governor Roberts said.
"This strategy not only ensures the continued development of the interstate tourism
industry in northwest Oregon, it also addresses the infrastructure, such as workforce
development and affordable housing, needed to support this industry. OTA has done
an excellent job of building partnerships in the industry, using the Oregon Convention
Center as a magnet for attracting visitors to the region. The State's investments in the
region have more than paid off," Roberts said.
The third round of Regional Strategies funding for the OTA region builds on efforts
initiated in the first and second rounds. Two counties that had been a part of the
Oregon Tourism Alliance in Rounds 1 and 2, Lincoln and Columbia, decided to pursue
other industry focuses in Round 3.

Council Meeting
MEMORANDUM
CITY OF TIGARD, OREGON
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: William A. Monahan, City Administrator
DATE: June 16, 1995
SUBJECT:. Unfinished Business
Two issues reiated to the June 13, 1995 Council meeting require Council direction.
Please consider your position on the following issues so that we may discuss them at the
June 20 meeting.
e
1. Music in the Park - Council authorized inclusion of $5,000 in the 1995-96
budget for Music in the Park. It is not clear to staff if Council has delegated
to staff the decision of which stage option should be selected. If Council
has a preference, we will present it to the committee.
2. COLA for Management staff - The 1995-96 budget includes funding to allow
for up to a 3% Cost of Living Adjustment for non-represented personnel.
Although the funds were allocated, Council needs to give direction on the
cost of living percentage to be given and the effective date. OPEU's
President has been advised that Council has not approved a COLA for
represented staff. Discussions with OPEU regarding a COLA will take place
through collective bargaining.
Staff would appreciate direction on these two matters so that implementation steps may
proceed.
