CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES - October 7, 1997 - PAGE 1
• Councilor Hunt wants to consider hiring a volunteer coordinator sooner, possibly through the +
n, supplemental budget process.
i
• Councilor Rohlf noted that the Downey application showed our Code does not provide a way
to stop a development request. He would like to review the Code to build in ways to
preserve aesthetics. Tasks would be to:
> revise the Community Development Code to protect aesthetics (large trees,
etc.)
> we need to consider how the Code can reflect how we as a community value
j aesthetics (trees, wetlands, etc.) Once we define what we like, we decide how to
have "teeth" in the Code to achieve our objectives.
Councilor Hunt expressed concerns about several existing goal activities:
• Get USA involved in our sewer line plan, make sure proper lines are in place to serve present
and future development.
• Need to get the Planning Commission involved in reviewing the streets classification and j
when the Road Bond should go on the ballot.
• He questioned why the Cook Park project has not moved ahead quicker.
• Band stand status - any progress in planning for it? ff
t
o Why the Gray line has not been used to irrigate the picnic areas at Cook Park. Over the
summer the ballfields were attended to, but not the picnic area.
i ,
On October 21, staff will review with Council draft prioritization of the goals, tasks and issues. Staff
will show detail of the steps needed to complete the projects while estimating the time and resources
needed to meet the goals.

MEMORANDUM
CITY OF TIGARD
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: William A. Monahan, City Manager
DATE: October 1, 1997
SUBJECT: Council Goat Setting
As discussed during the Study Session portion of the September 9 Council meeting, staff _
recommended that the Council goal setting schedule be changed to a Fall cycle. Our June
status report recommended that the goal setting meeting be held on September 30, 1997. Due
to schedule conflicts, Council agreed instead to an October 7 meeting. We agreed to hold a
facilitated meeting, with a follow-up meeting scheduled for the Study Session meeting on
October 21.
On September 9 I distributed a memo detailing my proposed approach to our goal setting
session. I have updated the contents of the memo to reflect the agreement that we reached on E
the progress. Re-stated, it is: i
My proposal is that Liz Newton and I meet with Council at 6:30 p.m. on October 7 to list all
suggested goals generated by Council and staff. Time will be provided for Councilors and
1 staff to discuss each proposed goal, add elements to the initial proposal, and discuss pros and
cons. The meeting will continue until approximately 10:00 p.m.
Prior to the close of the meeting, Council members will be asked to assign preliminary priority
numbers to the goals. We may find that given the number of goals, some fall-out from the
process may occur. After the meeting, Liz and I will take the list of goals and assemble a
i memo that we distribute to Executive Staff members for comment. A copy of the memo will
l
be sent to Council so that individual Council members can reflect on the proposed goals during ;
the days leading up to the second goal setting meeting.

Memo to Council
October 1, 1997
Page TwoI
The October 21 meeting will begin at 6:30 p.m. and will be devoted to a review of the memo,
Executive Staff comments, and the comments of Council members who have by then had a
week to reflect on the goals. The goals will be refined, priorities assigned, and a final list
generated.
The list of goals will then be the starting point for Council's meeting with me during my
performance review. My contract runs through November 15, 1997. It provides that Council
must give me notice by October 15 if it wishes to not continue my contract for another year.
We need to schedule my review to allow at least initial discussions to occur. I suggest that an
Executive Session be scheduled after the November 14 Council meeting to begin my review.
Materials for the Goal Setting Session
Staff has assembled materials for Council consideration in preparation for the goal setting.
These materials are attached:
1. A chart showing all Council goals for July, 1997 - June, 1998, updated.
2. A summary of present Council goals through September, 1997.
i 3. A memo from me dated October 1, 1997 regarding concepts.
4. The visioning product as reported by the Action commi,tees.

Liz and I look forward to working with you to update the Council goals.

Council Goals -1997
Status Report - September 1997
CITY ADMINISTRATION
4 1. Change Council Goal Setting Cycle to Fall
Staff proposed that the next Council goal setting date be
September 30, 1997; after reviewing tentative agendas, the
goal setting was set for October 7 with completion on the
October 21, 1997, meeting. This will coordinate the goal
setting process with budget preparation. ! .
42. Improve media relations.
Update (June 1997): Improve Media Relations - This is a goal
that is also a carryover from last year's Council goal list. City -
staff has met with members of the media to discuss ways to
improve coordination so that positive news stories can be
stressed.
Update (September 1997): Staff schedules weekly meetings j
with the Tigard Times and will propose the same schedule to the
Oregonian when a regular reporter is assigned to Tigard. Staff

11 3. Develop long-range and short-range space plans
and evaluate funding alternatives.
Update (June 1997): As of the writing of this update, staff
prepared a memorandum for Council consideration concerning
the options to explore for future City facilities. Staff will proceed
as directed by Council at the June 10, 1997 Council meeting,
Staff will incorporate appropriate elements of the previous study
and take into account the addition of the modular building
acquired for urban services. Information will be prepared for
review by King City, Durham and the Water District.
Long-Term Financing Options: Measure 47 created uncertainty
concerning the capacity of cities to bond. It also created
uncertainty for Library funding through both general fund
resources and the WCCLS levy. Library facilities are at
{
capacity.
Workplan: Staff will review and reevaluate our financing
options for City operations including the Library. We will review
the five-year plan strategy. This is something we should be
doing over the several years so that by the time we get to the
end of our current plan, we have a strategy in place to address
the next period.'.
Update (September 1997): A space committee has been
meeting since July to review options for expanding facilities.
The committee, made up of citizens and staff members, is
currently reviewing financing options.

Update (June 1997): This is a goal that is also a carryover from
last year's Council goal list. IOS is in the midst of constructing
and fund raising for the RITE Center to be located at
Green bu rg/Tiedeman in Tigard.
At the Council meeting of August 27, 1996, City Administrator Monahan
reviewed the status report recommendations of the 1994 Task Force:
1. Severe Weather Policy: Interfaith Outreach Services (IOS) operated
a shelter the last two years. It is possible the IOS will not continue
this service because of funding priorities the IOS Board needs to
determined. The City Administrator has met with the IOS Director;
they are reviewing the various options and sites.
2. Educate public about the problems of the homeless: City has
worked with IOS, disseminated information at CIT meetings and _
placed articles in the Cityscape. These efforts will continue.
3. Establish and Eastern Washington County Task Force: This effort j
was superseded by the formation of a Steering Committee to build
the RITE Center, a 30-bed facility to be located in Tigard.
i
4. Institute Other Programs: Staff suggests that the Community
Development Needs Assessment under CDBG include
homelessness as a "need" that should be addressed.
Update (September 1997): No additional work for this goal is
scheduled at this time.

Update (June 1997): Council wants to make the public more
aware of the good work by staff and the positive side of City
employment. One option is to recognize employees in the
Cityscape. We will explore options to get the word out to the
public.
i
i '
Update (September 1997): "Employees of the Month" are now
being recognized in the Cityscape. The first article appearing in
Cityscape featured two City employees, John Roy and Darwin

the Tigard Festival of Balloons. Regular write ups on employees
will continue to occur in this newsletter.
4 6. Conduct Visioning Process.
Update (June 1997): The Visioning process, titled "Tigard
Beyond Tomorrow," is a community-wide effort to establish a
long-term direction for the future of Tigard. The process is a
partnership with the Tigard-Tualatin Schools and involves f.
citizens in a variety of ways throughout the process. The end
product will be a set of target areas, goals for each target area
and strategies to implement the goals. f
i
Timing: Council will be apprised of progress on this goal at
the last meeting of every month while the Vision Task Force
meets and during the time the Action Planning Committees are
meeting.
Update (September 1997): The Vision Action Committees have
been meeting over the summer to develop strategies to address
issues identified as priorities by the Vision Task Force in the six
target areas. The Vision Task Force will meet with the Action

ordinances or resolutions outlining Council policy areas are
detected to be inconsistent with practice or community need,
staff will bring these forward for Council consideration for
amendment.
Update (September 1997): Staff will research ordinances,
resolutions and Council policies (that is, policies established
since 1993). The first step in this project will be to define the
i scope and then create a format for reporting and tracking (for
future reference). The target date for reporting to Council is the

MEMORANDUM
CITY OF TIGARD s ,
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
j /
! FROM: William A. Monahan, City Manager
7 '
j DATE: October 1, 1997
SUBJECT: Concepts
I suggest fourteen general concepts which I consider to have importance and which I submit to
begin discussion at the Council Goal Setting meeting.
• Hire a great Library Director with vision to continue to make the Library a
treasured asset in the community.
• Continue to empower my Executive Staff to carry out their jobs, seek ways to ;
improve services, solve problems, grow supervisors and support staff.
• Understand and carry out the results of the Visioning program. Use the results
of this process to proclaim the "Good News" that Tigard is well, has direction,
and is headed on a path to address issues head-on with community support and
involvement.
• Make best use of our newly-acquired properties, including the Cook Park
expansion, Greenspaces acquisitions, and the Burlington Northern property.
• Celebrate our successes every chance we get. Make the community aware of
i our good efforts. Continue to provide the media with positive stories.
• Build a better relationship with the school district through involvement of their
staff and administrator in our decisions; i.e., park planning, Triangle planning, j
implementation of the Visioning process as a partner, etc. Make more of an
3 effort to understand their needs and speak positively about these efforts.

• Make positive movement to get the downtown revitalization process on track.
The approach to give total deference to the property owners has not worked;
someone needs to act. Our visioning efforts should serve as a start. We the
City need to get the Chamber of Commerce and others to invest their time and
energy to move along the revitalization effort. f
i
i
• Carry out the Council goals which relate to planning and infrastructure studies
l in a systematic way. We need to be realistic about what we can accomplish
with existing resources. k
i
• Citizen involvement must be improved. The CIT process has a level of success,
but it doesn't reach and involve enough people. A much larger group of
stakeholders who are willing to work with us, understand our process, and
become partners with us must be identified, known, and trained. This is an
ongoing effort that could be coupled with the unveiling of the results/direction
of the Visioning process.
i
1 The Space Committee recommendations must be fully understood, priced, and
converted into a plan of ideas which will present to the voters a realistic picture
of what the is, the cost, what it will achieve, and why package it is in the best
long-term interest of the community to follow the proposal.
i
• Enlarge the City's volunteer program, making connections between volunteers
and opportunities in all City departments. increase the reporting of volunteer r
usage, striving for an equal number of Library and non-Library volunteer hours
each month. Determine the need for a City Volunteer Coordinator and make _
appropriate decision.
i -
• Improve and better track the Council goal setting process. Make it more
{ responsive to Council and community needs. Fold the Visioning results into the
goal setting program.
i
• Make our customer (citizen) service-based orientation better. Work with staff
and the public to get the message out that we are changing - because it is the
right thing to do. Make ourselves accountable for carrying out the changes so
that our attitudes, services, and results are truly community-based and in tune
with citizen desires.

e Improve the quality of presentations to the Council and public. Using better
materials and equipment, and most important training and assistance to staff, _
our conduct of public meetings and information process must improve. All staff
involved in contact with the public will be trained and provided guidance in
presenting information clearer, more complete, and better for the purpose of
educating the public.

Tigard is a safe place to live, play, and do business, with efficient public safety services coordinated by police, fire, and
emergency management providers. Citizens and businesses are well educated about public safety services; Tigard's
citizens understand their role and responsibilities for the safety of themselves and their community, and businesses take a
proactive role for their responsibility in protecting their investment in the community. Public Safety service providers plan
for their service delivery in such a way as to miniimize the negative impacts of the regional populations that travel to and

u..~~~.., (What Tigard will look like in 2017)
Tigard takes a proactive role in regional transportation planning. Funding sources are diverse, include regional resources
and are adequate to build and maintain our transportation system.
Each type of street safely handles the traffic it is designed to serve. Local traffic is served by a well-connected street
network that minimizes traffic impacts on neighborhoods. Tigard's arterials and major collector streets accommodate
through-traffic reducing the impact of regional traffic on local neighborhoods.
Alternative transportation methods are affordable and available. Use of alternative transportation is encouraged.

Tigard area residents have access to good quality public and private schools. Residents of our community, whether or not
they have children in the school system, understand the importance of education and how they can help promote
education of our community. The public schools have stable funding through state and local funding options. Curriculum
and extra-curricular programs are important and are well supported through volunteers, local funding, and increased
partnerships with business and government.
New development assists in paying for new education infrastructure required by growth in the community.
Public schools and governmental entities, in our community, actively partner in day-to-day operations and other costs to
facilitate the most efficient delivery of services.
