TIGARD CITY COUNCIL
MEETING MINUTES - SEPTEMBER 8, 1998
• STUDY SESSION
> Meeting was called to order at 6:30 p.m. by Mayor Jim Nicoli
> Council Present: Mayor Jim Nicoli, Councilors Brian Moore, Bob Rohlf, and Ken Scheckla.
> Staff Present: City Manager Bill Monahan; City Recorder Catherine Wheatley; City
Engineer Gus Duenas; City Attorney Tim Ramis; Public Works Director Ed
Wegner; Administrative Risk Analyst Loreen Mills; and Community
Development Director Jim Hendryx.
> AGENDA REVIEW
Bill Monahan, City Manager,
o Announced that Don Wheeler and Steve Meagher would talk about Train Day during the
regular session.
a Noted the two opportunities on September 28 for the public to give input on the proposed
study boundaries and other issues of the Washington Square Regional Center planning
effort.
Referenced written testimony received from Mike Robinson of Stoel Rives regarding the
vacation of SW Franklin Street.
Cathy Wheatley, City Recorder, noted corrections to the agenda.
Mr. Monahan mentioned that tonight a citizen Political Committee might request that the
Council send to the voters the question of whether the City should move forward towards
Willamette River water. He said that he asked Tim Ramis, City Attorney, to research the
matter.
Mr. Ramis stated that the Council had broad authority to put almost any matter on a ballot for an
advisory vote but not necessarily a mandatory vote. He explained that the courts distinguished
two categories of questions: legislative and administrative. Legislative involved broadly
applicable laws whereas administrative involved the implementation of law. He said that the
Council could put this question on for an advisory vote but probably not a mandatory vote
because the question of where to get water was an administrative question.
Mr. Ramis mentioned that there was no case law involving water location but there was case law
involving parks location and similar things on property rights which he thought was a good
analogy. He concluded that the case law supported the decision as administrative.
Mayor Nicoli commented that Commissioner Sten had asked Tigard at their last meeting to hold
off on making a decision until the Portland study was in. He said that since the Portland study
was due out at the same time as their study, they agreed to wait. He contended that it did not
make sense to make a decision until all the information was in or to ask the voters to vote on an
issue without knowing the facts.
Councilor Scheckla asked if this citizens group would be willing to pay the costs to put this
question on the ballot. Mr. Monahan said that was not discussed. He reported that, on the
occasions when this issue was raised at the water forum and CIT meetings, staff has
Tigard City Council Meeting Minutes - September 8, 1998 - Page 1
consistently said that while the Council could ask for an advisory vote, the Council was still the
decision-making body on the issue.
Councilor Scheckla expressed concern at setting a precedent. Mr. Ramis said that, generally
speaking, local governments did not ask for advisory votes.
Councilor Scheckla asked what the difference was between a survey and an advisory vote. Mr.
Ramis said that some people might argue that a vote of the people had more political impact
than a survey. He commented that as a sample of public opinion, a vote might be less accurate
than a survey.
Mayor Nicoli said he opposed a vote until all the facts were on the table. He pointed out that
efforts to put this question on the Portland ballot through petition have failed. Councilor Rohlf
concurred with waiting until all the facts were in.
Councilor Moore asked how this question would get on the ballot. Mr. Ramis indicated that
asking the Council to send it to the ballot was probably the most realistic alternative, since
initiative petition was for legislative items, not administrative.
> POLICE REMODEL DISCUSSION
Mr. Monahan reported that the bids for the next stage of the 10-year police remodel came in
high. Staff recommended rejecting the bids and culling out elements from the RFP to send out
for a second bid but they wanted Council input on which items to pull out. He reviewed the
security and other concerns with the two main sections of the lobby. He spoke to building a
glass wall with an activated door between the sections as part of the police remodel in order to
address these concerns.
Gus Duenas, City Engineer, mentioned that the replacement windows needed in the police
department building had also been part of the original RFP. Mr. Monahan explained that staff
decided to include the police building windows in this package, since it was a police building
remodel, but they could be included in the library package (for windows).
Mr. Duenas said that Russ Hansen, the architect working on the library roof project, reported
water under the membrane of the roof over the police building. He stated that it was an
expensive item, and not part of this police remodel plan, but it did need to be looked at.
Mr. Monahan asked if Council wanted staff to return with a proposal for the roof, the windows,
and interior glass or wait until after November to make a decision. Councilor Moore supported
waiting until after November to see what happened.
Mayor Nicoli spoke to declaring an emergency and moving forward immediately on repairing
the roof or they could lose the shell of the building. He said that waiting until November was
too late because they would then have to wait until June or July until the roof dried out before
they could do the work. Ed Wegner, Public Works Director, suggested adding the police
building roof to the contract for the library roof, as that contractor has already started work.
Councilor Scheckla spoke to getting more information before they committed a lot of money.
Mr. Monahan reiterated the staff recommendation to reject the first bids. He suggested asking
the library roof contractor to ascertain the extent of the police building roof problem. Staff
would then return to Council with a report and cost estimates. He said that staff could talk with
the contractor about adding on the police building windows. They would hold off on the
interior wall until November. The Council agreed by consensus with Mr. Monahan's suggested
Tigard City Council Meeting Minutes - September 8, 1998 - Page 2
course of action.
> CONTRACTOR DEFAULT
Mayor Nicoli asked for a status report on the Bull Mountain project. Mr. Duenas said that staff
sent a letter to the bonding company reporting the contractor in default but they have not heard
back from either the company or the developer. Councilor Scheckla spoke to putting pressure
on the developer. Mr. Ramis explained that the bonding company usually did that. Councilor
Scheckla expressed his concern that this situation was dragging on for a lengthy time period.
> COUNCIL LIAISON ROLE
Mr. Monahan reported that Councilor Scheckla raised a question about the liaison role of
Councilors with regard to stating the Council's position on key issues. He said that he
understood the language to mean that the Councilor was to represent the position of the majority
of the Council, regardless of the Councilor's personal position.
Councilor Scheckla asked for clarification on Councilors returning to the Council for input on
key issues. He reviewed his strategy in working with the Affordable Housing Committee, a
group that worked hard to reach compromises on contentious issues. He explained that he felt it
important to let the group hammer out the issues themselves and then present the total package
to Council.
Councilor Rohlf commented that he felt comfortable with Councilor Scheckla's strategy, as he
believed that Councilor Scheckla knew what the feelings of the Council were in general. He
indicated that he was confident that Councilor Scheckla would return to the Council for
direction on an issue that he felt uncomfortable making a decision on. Councilor Moore
indicated that he trusted Councilor Scheckla's decision-making ability also in representing the
Council's position.
> TRAIN DAY
Mayor Nicoli introduced Don Wheeler, President of the Pacific Rail Preservation Association.
Mr. Wheeler explained the cause of the breakdown in Engine #700 and its repair. He presented
pictures documenting the use of the train at various group events and pulling freight trains. He
reviewed their schedule to get the engine ready and in place for display on Train Day. He said
that they intended to have someone on the engine 24 hours a day for security purposes.
Mr. Wheeler recounted the history and specifics of Engine #700, built in 1938 for the
Spokane/Portland/Seattle Railway and used to haul the Empire Builder between Portland,
Vancouver, and Spokane until its retirement in 1956, and donation to the City of Portland for
display in Oaks Park. He said that in 1988 serious restoration work began on the engine, funded
by a $50,000 grant from Burlington Northern, and in May 1990, his group performed a
successful test run up to Longview and back.
Mr. Wheeler said that the 440-ton engine averaged 15 gallons per mile on its crude oil fuel with
every gallon of fuel burned converting 100 gallons of water into steam. The 6000 pounds of
fuel in the tender lasted 300 miles. He reviewed the various fund-raising methods of this all
volunteer organization, which relied heavily on donated materials and labor. He explained that
they traded use of the engine to haul passenger or freight trains for the railroad companies in
exchange for track time for revenue passenger runs.
Mr. Wheeler mentioned their work with the Pacific Northwest Chapter of the National Railway
Tigard City Council Meeting Minutes - September 8, 1998 - Page 3
Historical Society (which ran the trolley from Lake Oswego to Portland) at various events. The
Historical Society owned passenger cars but no engine and the Preservation Association owned
the engine but no passenger cars. He pointed out that at these events, both groups educated
people about railroad history in general, and Operation Lifesaver in particular.
Mr. Wheeler explained the organizational structure of the Pacific Rail Preservation Society. He
said that between 16 to 20 people came down regularly on Wednesday nights or Saturdays to
perform routine maintenance and repairs on the engine. He said that these volunteers came from
all walks of life and provided a breadth of skills and knowledge important to this work.
> EXECUTIVE SESSION
The Tigard City Council went into Executive Session at 7:30 p.m. under the provisions of ORS
192.660 (1) (d), (e), & (h) to discuss labor relations, real property transactions, current and
pending litigation issues.
> Mayor Nicoli adjourned the Executive Session at 7:35 p.m.
1. BUSINESS MEETING
1.1 Call to Order - City Council & Local Contract Review Board
Mayor Jim Nicoli called the meeting to order at 7:35 p.m.
1.2 Roll Call
Councilors Moore, Mayor Nicoli, Rohlf, and Scheckla were present.
.1.4 Council Communications: None
1.5 Call to Council and Staff for Non-Agenda Items: None
2. VISITOR'S AGENDA
Jack Polans, 16000 SW Queen Victoria Place, King City, raised a series of technical
questions regarding the Menlor Water Reservoir. He expressed concern about the longevity of a
particular part used in the tank. He also asked if the City had promised to the adjacent
homeowners a park on that site or if the City would grant permits to build three residential
homes.
Mayor Nicoli noted that the Council did not have the expertise to answer most of Mr. Polans'
questions. He directed Mr. Polans to submit those questions to staff who would answer them. In
response to Mr. Polans, Mayor Nicoli explained that the staff person with that technical knowledge
was not present tonight, and suggested that, in the future, Mr. Polans present his questions to staff in
advance.
Mayor Nicoli said, in regard to the question on a park, that the City had purchased more land
directly up hill of the reservoir land to use as a City park in the future. He commented that the park
would not be developed immediately as it was outside the City limits at this time. Mr. Monahan
mentioned that the Menlor Reservoir project report was scheduled for the October 13 meeting.
Bill Kirby introduced himself as a candidate for judge in the Washington County Circuit Court.
He reviewed his background and qualifications for the position.
Tigard City Council Meeting Minutes - September 8, 1998 - Page 4
3. PROCLAMATION
Mayor Nicoli noted the proclamation urging the City of Tigard to get ready for the Year 2000
Census.
4. CONSENT AGENDA
Councilor Scheckla questioned accepting one of the two bids that came in for Item 4.6a, since
both were high. Mr. Duenas explained that staff recommended accepting the lowest bid as they
felt it was reasonable. He said that if they waited and re-bid the project next year, the costs
might be higher and it would delay the project. He agreed that the second bid for $180,000 was
out of line but held that the $95,000 bid was within a reasonable range.
Councilor Rohlf asked why staff requested to increase the budget for that project to $105,000 if
the bid came in at $95,000. Mr. Duenas explained that the $105,000 included contingency funds
to cover any surprises discovered during the undergrounding work on this project. He said that
any funds not used would go back into the general fund.
Motion by Councilor Rohlf, seconded by Councilor Moore, to approve the Consent
Agenda.
Motion was approved by unanimous voice vote of Council present. (Councilors Moore, Mayor
Nicoli, Rohlf, and Scheckla voted "yes.")

5. VISIONING UPDATE
Loreen Mills, Administrative Risk Analyst, reported on the first year progress in
implementing the Tigard Beyond Tomorrow Vision Program. She said that in the Public Safety
target area, there were now 50 Neighborhood Watch programs in place in the City with
enhanced training and recruitment by the police department. She mentioned the work of the
Chamber and the City to research the interest in a Business Watch program.
Ms. Mills reported that in the Community Character and Quality of Life target area, the hiring of
Tigard City Council Meeting Minutes - September 8, 1998 - Page 5
a Volunteer Coordinator has served to expand their volunteer program significantly at the City
and in coordination with the School District. She mentioned Train Day as a community event
that helped foster a sense of community in Tigard.
Ms. Mills mentioned the Washington Square Regional Center Task Force, created by the
Council, us part of meeting the Growth and Growth Management target area goal to address
growth w.iile protecting the character and livability of the surrounding area. She said that the
Task Force has met three times and developed their guiding principles for reviewing the
regional center.
Ms. Mills reviewed the partnership efforts between the City and School District, as requested in
the Schools and Education target area. These included a before school program for 100 plus
middle school children, and the addition of over 40 new recreation classes to their fall program
(including more programs for adults). She referenced the brochure published by Kids &
Company/Tualatin Parks & Recreation. She mentioned the joint School District-City Library
"homework bus" program at the middle schools to promote homework research and to enhance
the skills of middle school children in their homework activities.
Councilor Scheckla asked if the prpgram included private schools. Ms. Mills said that it did not
at this time but that was something that they could look at.
Ms. Mills reviewed City staff work on the Transportation and Traffic target area. She
mentioned traffic safety projects, such as the upgrade of Gaarde Street between 99W and Walnut
Street to a major collector, the continued installation of speed humps in neighborhoods, and the
new Community Development Code provision prohibiting direct access on to minor collectors
from neighborhood streets. She noted traffic flow improvement projects, such as discussions
between Tigard and Beaverton regarding the Murray Boulevard extension to the Walnut
Street/Barrows Road intersection, and the traffic counts taken by staff in order to provide
realistic data to Metro regarding the traffic impacts on Tigard from traffic coming in from the
McMinnville-Newberg-Sherwood area for use in future regional traffic projections.
Ms. Mills addressed the last target area of Urban and Public Services. She mentioned the
citizens group looking at creating a recreation district, and Kids & Company who worked with
the School District to develop an ongoing recreation program until z recreation district decision
was made. She reported that during the summer quarter they had 270 participants and hoped for
more in the fall with the expanded programming. She pointed out that Tigard's participation in
developing a water source for the region, including Tigard, came out of the Visioning process as
well as from City Council work. She mentioned articles on water conservation and quality
published in Cityscape.
Councilor Rohlf noted that conflict between the Library Board's decision not to pursue fee-
based programs and the Vision Task Force's action measure to provide enhanced services for
fees while maintaining the non-fee basic programs. Ms. Mills explained that the Vision Task
Force had been concerned that funding reductions from Measures 47 and 50 would decrease the
library's ability to offer new services. She explained that the Library Board found that the
Library could provide basic services and expanded programming without requiring a fee.
Councilor Scheckla asked for an update on the Murray Boulevard extension discussions with
Beaverton. Mr. Duenas reported that Beaverton was studying the possibility of a five-lane
facility to connect Murray Boulevard to Walnut Street. He mentioned a development
application at Beaverton to develop the property between Schools Ferry and Barrows Road
which played into the decision Beaverton needed to make on where to locate the town center.
He said that a five-lane facility would be needed if Beaverton located the town center there but
Tigard City Council Meeting Minutes - September 8, 1998 - Page 6
the road would go to three lanes at Walnut.
Mr. Duenas mentioned that Tigard staff insisted that the Murray Boulevard extension be a direct
connection, rather than incorporating a jog onto Barrows before reaching Walnut.
6. TRAIN DAYS UPDATE
Don Wheeler, President of Pacific Rail Preservation Association, reviewed the history of
Steam Engine #700 that was maintained and operated by the 80 volunteers in the Preservation
Association. He mentioned the successful repairs recently completed, assuring Tigard that the
engine would be ready for display on Train Day. He noted the importance of the railroads in
developing the United States as a country. He said that, in addition to railroad history, they
educated the public regarding Operation Lifesaver: Stop, Look and Listen. He explained that a
440-ton engine pulling a 3000-ton train at 50 mph took at least a mile to stop. He said that the
engineer could not see through the boiler to the other side of the train and therefore, depended
on auto traffic to stop because he could not.
Mr. Wheeler thanked the Council for inviting them to participate in Train Day, to show the
locomotive, and to talk about its history and Operation Lifesaver, especially to the children.
Councilor Scheckla asked if the Preservation Association has ever had an accident while operating
the equipment. Mr. Wheeler said that they had not had an accident with the locomotive since they
restored it. He mentioned the extensive safety training done within their organization. He urged
people, when crossing the tracks, to step over the rails, not on top of them, because the rails were
slippery.
Steve Meagher, Tualatin Elementary School Fifth Grade teacher, thanked the Council for
their sponsorship and participation in the program. He mentioned the opportunity for train
safety education as well as incorporating train history and principles of operation into their
regular curriculum.
Mayor Nicoli thanked Bob Melbo, General Manager for Willamette and Pacific Railway, for his
cooperation in making this event happen. He mentioned that the diesel engine "Tigard" would also
be on display. He invited the public to view the engines from 2:30 p.m. to dusk.
Mr. Wheeler reviewed the Association's plans to bring the locomotive in on Wednesday, September
23, and ready her for display on Thursday and Friday, September 24 and 25. He mentioned the
revenue passenger runs from Tigard to Hillsboro on Saturday and from Beaverton to Hillsboro on
Sunday. He said that the engines would be on display in Beaverton on Monday and Tuesday. He
said that they might display the engine at OMSI in December as part of the Holiday Junction
display.
Mr. Monahan mentioned the trains running between Wilsonville and Beaverton this Saturday to
demonstrate future commuter rail. Mr. Wheeler said that #700 would be on display at the
Beaverton Transit Center as part of the Westside Light Rail Grand Opening.
7. PUBLIC HEARING - VACATION OF A PORTION OF SW 66T" AVENUE
APPROXIMATELY 13,679 SQUARE FEET OF PUBLIC RIGHT OF WAY ON SW 66T"

IN THE CITY OF TIGARD
a. Mayor Nicoli opened the public hearing.
Tigard City Council Meeting Minutes - September 8, 1998 - Page 7
b. Declarations or Challenges: None
c. Staff Report
Mr. Duenas reviewed the history of this vacation request initiated by Council Resolution No.
98-40 on July 28. He said that staff reduced the amount of land originally requested (all the land
west of 66'h) because ODOT could not guarantee that it would not need to shift SW 66"' further
west in the I-5/217 interchange project. He commented that they deemed it prudent to hold on
to the land they were uncer[ain of but saw no reason not to vacate the land they knew would not
be affected by the interchange project. If the land was not needed by the project, it could be
vacated and sold in the future. He noted that ODOT agreed. He explained that the City would
vacate the land to ODOT who in turn would sell the property to Wittla for their parking lot
expansion.
Mr. Duenas said that the Tualatin Valley Water District line mentioned by that agency would
not be affected by this vacation.
d. Public Testimony
Mayor Nicoli read the procedures and criteria for the hearing.
O Jim Corliss viewed the map to insure that sufficient right-of-way remained to handle the traffic
flow in the area. Mr. Duenas explained the sRecifics to him, noting that the Tigard Triangle
Design plan called for the local street SW 66 at a 60 feet right-of-way.
Councilor Moore asked why staff recommended vacating any portion of the land at this time instead
of waiting to see how much they would need. Mr. Duenas said that Wittla wanted to expand its
parking lot as soon as possible and was willing to settle for only a portion of what they asked for.
He conceded that they did not have to vacate any land at all but reiterated that they saw no risk to
the City in vacating this portion at this time and it would enable Wittla to do their project.
Councilor Scheckla asked about setting a precedent. Mr. Duenas said that each request was
reviewed on a case by case basis, and no precedent was set.
e. Staff Recommendation
Mr. Duenas recommended that Council approve the vacation as requested by staff in the
attached ordinance.

8. PUBLIC HEARING - VACATION OF APPROXIMATELY 13,140 SQUARE FEET OF
A PUBLIC RIGHT-OF-WAY - SW FRANKLIN STREET
a. Mayor Nicoli opened the public hearing.
b. Declarations or Challenges: None
c. Staff Report
Jim Hendryx, Community Development Director, mentioned the Council resolution initiating the
vacation on July 28 (Exhibit B), as requested by Specht Development. He said that the right-of-way
on this portion of SW Franklin Street between SW 69`h and SW 70`x' was unimproved. He explained
that extension of SW Franklin street west of SW 70'h was not possible due to existing development.'
Specht Development proposed building a multi building office complex and incorporating the SW
Franklin right-of-way into the development. He said that Specht would improve SW Beveland
Street, effectively shifting the east west through street further to the south and replacing SW
Franklin Street. He noted that SW Beveland was listed as a minor collector in the Tigard Triangle
Street Plan.
Mr. Hendryx recommended placing a condition on the vacation because Specht Development's
application was not yet through the site development review process. The condition was that the
site development application must be approved and SW Beveland Street dedicated prior to the
vacation becoming final. He stated that the vacation was warranted, given the inability to extend
Franklin Street to the west and the improvements and connections that would be constructed as part
of the Specht Development project.
Mr. Hendryx said that none of the agencies contacted had any comments or concerns and no utilities
were involved. He noted a letter from Mike Robinson.
d. Public Testimony

Mayor Nicoli, Rohlf, and Scheckla voted "yes.")
9. UPDATE: MOSQUITO VECTOR CONTROL PROGRAM
Mr. Wegner reported on the success of the mosquito vector control program initiated by the City
last year in conjunction with Durham, Tualatin, and United Sewage Agency and conducted by
Multnomah County Vector Control. He mentioned the $2,000 spent by Tigard over the course
of the year to treat areas of Cook Park, Titan Pond, the USA Thomas Dairy property, and
Durham Park. He requested permission to renew the contract with Multnomah County Vector
Control, noting the $2,000 budgeted this year. He mentioned asking Multnomah County to
analyze Summerlake Park to see if it should be added to the program.
The Council agreed by consensus to continue the program, noting the favorable comments heard
from citizens.
10. UPDATE: LONG-RANGE WATER SUPPLY
Mr. Wegner asked if Chris Uber of Murray Smith & Associates was supposed to answer Mr.
Polaris' questions at the October meeting. Mr. Monahan suggested asking Mr. Uber to provide
staff with the answer to Mr. Polaris' questions, as they were quite technical, and staff would give
the answers to Mr. Polaris. The Council agreed.
Mr. Wegner distributed the current water supply status report. He noted that their August peak
day demand was 11.7 million gallons per day (mgd), down from the 13.3 mgd and 13.4 mgd
peak day demands in July but up by 1 mgd from August 1997. He said that the substantial
increase was due to growth in the area but pointed out that conservation efforts by citizens and
businesses have helped keep the levels down. He reported that the new 24-inch value installed
this year at Tiedeman Road was hooked up to the computer so they could turn it on and off
without having to go out to the site.
Mr. Wegner mentioned the two issue papers expe.;ted in the next two weeks on the Willamette
River Supply action which staff would forward to Council. He said that they had their
preliminary meeting with the Corps of Engineers. He noted the need to be careful to abide by
the fishflows, especially for the endangered species. He reported that Wilsonville has
purchased the Young property abutting the Willamette River as a potential water treatment plant
site.
Tigard City Council Meeting Minutes - September 8, 1998 - Page 10
Mr. Wegner said that Portland representatives would attend a Tigard Council meeting in two
weeks to discuss opportunities for joining them in a long-term contract. the mentioned staff's
work with Portland staff on the elements of the contract and the infrastructure management plan.
He said that they determined, as a technical staff, that regional transmission and storage was
,important, and if another pipeline were constructed, it should take a more southern route than
the path of the existing pipeline in order to allow the potential to tie into the Clackamas River.
Mr. Wegner noted the eight evaluation criteria used by Council in 1993 and 1994 to evaluate the
top four water supply sources. He said that Phil Smith of Murray, Smith and Associates would
lead the Council in a workshop discussion of the evaluation criteria on October 20. He reported
that Davis & Hibbetts conducted a telephone survey to ask people for their opinions on the eight
criteria. He mentioned several upcoming meetings on water issues.
Jack Polans asked if Tigard acceptance of the Portland bid would dissolve the WWSA. Mayor
Nicoli said that he doubted it.
11. FACILITIES PLANNING UPDATE
Mr. Monahan reported that the ballot title approved by Council would appear on the November
3 ballot as Measure 34-87. He mentioned fhe fact sheet prepared by the City giving information
on the plan and the issue.

Parking lot?
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
The staff recommends the Local Contract Review Board, by motion, approve the contract award to MH
Construction in the amount of $95,001.23.
INFORMATION SUMMARY
In April, 1996, the City of Tigard and the Tigard Chamber of Commerce purchased the Tigard Feed Store
property owned by the Burlington Northern Railroad. At that time the City filed a Partition Plat dividing the
property into two parcels. One owned by the City of Tigard, and the other owned by the Chamber of
Commerce. The site is located on Tigard Street, near the intersection of Tigard Street and Main Street. It is
bordered by Tigard Street, Burlington Northern Railroad, and private commercial developments. This project
will improve the property owned by the City by constructing a parking lot for use by downtown shoppers.
This project has been delayed from the previous year.
The scope of this project is to construct fourteen regular and one disabled parking spaces for public parking.
Access to the parking is through Tigard Street with an entrance at the east end, and an exit, at the west end of
the parking lot.
To meet the Site Development Revievii's requirements, half-street improvements including sidewalk, storm
drainage, landscaping and street lights are also constructed in addition to construction of the parking lot. The
existing bike lane on Tigard Street, which currently stops at the Hwy 99W Overpass, will be extended to the
intersection of Tigard and Main Street.
Completion of this project will provide additional parking spaces for the downtown area.
The bid opening was conducted on August 26, 1998. The bid results are:

COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY
ISSUE/AGENDA TITLE 66th Avenue Public Right-of-WU Vacation
CL-?5'-"'
PREPARED BY: A.P. Duenas DEPT HEAD OK ITY MGR OK
ISSUE BEFORE THE COUNCIL
Should the City Council vacate approximately 13,679 square feet of public right-of-way on 66' Avenue
adjacent to and immediately south of Hampton Street.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that Council approve the vacation as requested.
INFORMATION SUMMARY
Council initiated this vacation at a public meeting held on July 28, 1998 (see Exhibit D, Resolution No. 98-40).
The City of Tigard, by Resolution No. 81-12 and pursuant to the terms of ORS 271.330, accepted from the State
of Oregon 'a certain parcel of real property located within the city limits of the City of Tigard to be used and
maintained by the City as part of 66"' Avenue in its City street system. Pacific Realty Associates, L.P.
("PacTrust") would like to acquire a portion of the right-of-way deeded to the City of Tigard by the State of
Oregon for expansion of their parking area, and has requested that the City relinquish that property to the State of
Oregon. The property to be vacated is approximately 13,679 square feet located within the existing 66m Avenue
right-of-way adjacent to and immediately south of Hampton Street.
The pending construction of the I-5/Highway 217 Interchange requires that the City retain sufficient property
adjacent to the I-5 corridor to ensure that the right-of-way widths required by the Tigard Triangle Design
Standards are met. There is still a posssibility that the alignment of 66"' Avenue could move to the west should
the pending project require additional property for the planned improvements. However, a portion of the
property is clearly not necessary for use as part of 66 h Avenue and can be reconveyed to the State of Oregon,
Department of Transportation for disposition. Once the construction of the I-5/Highway 217 Interchange project
is completed and the final alignment of 66"' Avenue is established, there may be additional property that can be
reconveyed to ODOT for disposition.
All affected service providers, including utility companies and emergency service providers have been notified of
the proposed vacation and have offered no objections. One comment from Tualatin Valley Water District indicates
that they have an 8-inch diameter water line adjacent to the property to be vacated. This water line is outside the
property to be vacated and hence no easement is required for it. MOT was notified about the proposed vacation
and they have no objection to it.
The attachments are: Proposed ordinance, legal description of the property. Exhibit A), map of the property
(Exhibit B), vicinity map (Exhibit C), and Resolution No. 98-40 (Exhibit D).
OTHER ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED
1. Deny the vacation request.
2. Take no action at this time

ISSUE/AGENDA TITLE:
CITY
PREPARED BY: Julia Powell Hajduk DEPT DEAD OK 'Jig NUN
ISSUE BEFORE THE COUNCIL
Should the City Council vacate approximately 13,140 square feet of public right-of-way on SW Franklin Street
between SW 69th Avenue and SW 70th Avenue?
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that Council approve the vacation as requested.
INFORMATION SUMMARY
Council initiated this vacation at a public meeting held on July 28, 1998 (See Exhibit D, Resolution No. 98-41).
Specht Development has requested that the City Council vacate an approximately 13,140 square foot portion of
public right-of-way on SW Franklin Street between SW 69th Avenue and SW 70th Avenue. The right-of-way had
previously been dedicated as part of the West Portland Heights Subdivision. This right-of-way is un-improved.
The property on the west side of SW 70th Avenue received approval for construction of the Hampton Park
Apartment complex (SDR 94-0004). The Hampton Park Apartments did not provide for the extension of SW
Franklin Street through the property. The existing development prohibits extension of Franklin Street west of SW
70th Avenue. Specht Development proposes to construct a multi-building office complex and wishes to
incorporate the existing SW Franklin Street right-of-way into the development. The development proposal will
involve the dedication and improvement of SW Beveland Street, as well as, the improvement of SW Dartmouth
Street, SW Elmhurst Street and SW 69th Avenue. Staff finds that, given the improvements and connections that
will be created as part of this development and the fact that SW Franklin Street can not be extended to the west, the
vacation is warranted. In addition, SW Beveland Street is listed as a minor collector street on the Tigard Triangle
Street Plan and will provide for "through" connections consistent with the Tigard Triangle Street Plan. The Tigard
Triangle street spacing standards will continue to be met after the vacation of SW Franklin Street provided that SW
Beveland Street is dedicated and improved. Because a formal site development review application has not been
approved as of yet, staff is recommending that a condition be placed on the vacation that the Site Development
must be approved and SW Beveland Street dedicated prior to the vacation becoming final. If these conditions are
required and met, the City can be sure that the vacation of the street is tied to the proposed development.
All affected service providers, including utility companies and emergency service providers have been notified of

This law firm represents the Specht Development Company (-Sp=ht"), I am writing
to confirm Specht Development's support for the City Council-initiated street vacation of SW
Franklin Street and to explain why the street vacation should be approved.
Specht is preparing to submit an application to develop a Class "A" office park
development on both sides of SW Franklin Street between SW 70th and SW 69th Avenues.
As we have discussed, part of Specht's application will include the dedication and
development of SW Beveland Street from SW 70th Avenue on the west to SW 69th Avenue
on the east- SW Beveland Street is shown in the Tigard Triangle Plan as providing an east
west connection between SW 72nd Avenue and the area to the east.
SW Franklin Street is an undeveloped right of way between SW 69th Avenue and SW
70th Avenue. It is in the middle of Spacht's development. Because of development west of
SW 70th Avenue, it will not be possible to extent SW Franklin Street to the west. Further,
with the development of SW Beveland Street, the east-west transportation needs of the Tigard
Triangle will be met in this area by SW Beveland Street and not SW Franklin Street.
Vacation of SW Franklin Street will serve the public interest, will allow Specht to fully
develop its property and will result in Specht dedicating and constructing SW Beveland
Street.

The criteria for a City Council-initiated street vacation is found in ORS 271.130. The
City Council can find that these criteria are satisfied. First, the two abutting property
owners (current owners of part of the property to be developed by Specht, Tax Lots 4200
and 9100) support the street vacation. Specht's sellers are the only abutting property owners
to the portion of SW Franklin Street to be vacated.
Secondly, the owners of two other lots within the -affected area" of the street
vacation (Tax Lois 3901 and 4000) support the street vacation.
Finally, the City Council can find that the street vacation will not prejudice an
aniculable public interest. SW Franklin Street is not needed for transportation, utility or
park purposes.
For all of these reasons, Specht supports the City Council-initiated street vacation and
urges the City Council to approve the vacation.
My final comments have to do with the notice of hearing for the September 8, 1998
hearing. The first paragraph states that the City Council will consider a public right-of--way
and egsement vacation. i have confirmed with you that there is no public easement within
the proposed right-of-way To be vacated. Therefore, no easement vacation will occur as a
result of this hearing. Secondly, the third paragraph states that a staff report will be
available seven (7) days prior to the hearing. I have confirmed with you that no staff report
will be prepared, other than the City Council item summary that you have already prepared.
Please see that this letter is included within the City Council's packet for this matter.
Very truly yours.

ISSUE/AGENDA TITLE Vector Control Program
PREPARED BY:
ip r DEPT HEAD OK '
CITY MGR OK
ISSUE BEFORE THE COUNCIL
Should the City of Tigard continue to contribute funds to control mosquitoes within Cook Park and other areas of
concern within the city.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
To continue to contract vector control services for mosquitoes with Multnomah County .
INFORMATION SUMMARY
The City of Tigard is currently in an Inter governmental agreement with Multnomah County to provide mosquito
control services within Cook Park . We are joined in this agreement by City of Durham (who is spear-heading
the program), USA, City of Tualatin and Washington County. The Parks Division has yet to receive calls from
residents near Cook Park complaining about the mosquitoes since the vector control has began. Most of the
calls received were from residents inquiring about the control methods. Last year at this time we were receiving
on the average 10-15 calls weekly. We have received calls requesting vector control in the Summerlake area and
we would like Multnomah County to do a preliminary check of the area to see if control methods are needed.
OTHER ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED
-Expand service area within city limits
-Look for private contractor to provide service
-Discontinue srevice
VISION TASK FORCE GOAL AND ACTION COMMITTEE STRATEGY
This achieves a portion of the visioning goal of providing Tigard citizens with a better Quality of Life.
FISCAL NOTES
To date we have contributed $2000.00 to the vector control program for applications done this past spring. The
Parks Division has also budgeted $2000.00 for vector control for the 1998/99 fiscal year . If it is determined
that control methods are needed in the Summerlake area then we will take the additional funds out of our current
budget to cover the extra cost. The expanded areas will be addressed in the following budgets as needed.

RE: Vector Control Program
DATE: August 19, 1998
The City of Tigard Parks/Grounds Division would most definitely like to continue our
agreement with Multnomah County for mosquito vector control within the City of Tigard.
I have received only a few scattered reports this summer and have sent out only two
complaint forms to citizens who would like action taken in their areas. These forms are
sent to the City of Durham so I have no record of how many were actually received.
We currently have $2000.00 budgeted for vector control in the 1998/99 budget. I would
like David to do a check for mosquitoes around Summerlake. If it is determined after
an initial survey of the area that treatment is needed then I will take additional funds out
of my 602 account to cover the extra cost. If additional money is needed before July
1999 then I will make the according adjustments in 1999/00 budget to cover future
expenditures. David and Multnomah County have done an outstanding job of
controlling the mosquito problem in the Cook Park area. I have received many
compliments and many thanks for our response to the situation.

To Whom it May Concern:
JUL 2 2
1998
This note comes to you with a heartfelt THANKYOU for acting upon the
complaints of the citizens of Tigard, especially those of us who suffered from the
mosquito onslaught in the Summer of 1997-As subscribers to the Tigard Times,
we have read articles on what the City of Tigard is doing to alleviate the problem,
and have even seen pictures of a gentlemen in Pest Control treating the "
mosquitoes in the larvae stage in local ponds and streams. We were hopeful that
the mosquito problem would be under control this year, as last year we could
barely go outdoors without being eaten alive. Well, summer is half over and
thanks to your efforts and quick action we have enjoyed numerous dinners and
events outdoors without pesty distractions. You have our sincere thanks and
appreciation for a job well done.

Re: Proposal to Renew the IGA for Vector Control in the Greater Durham Area
Dear Bill:
It is time to consider renewing an agreement with Multnomah County for mosquito vector
control in calendar year 1999. 1 have not looked into another alternative and have been very
satisfied with the results provided by David Turner and his crews. To date, David has indicated
that we are under budget and does not foresee any problems with staying within the $9,009
maximum contract amount. I still intend to give you and the other contributing agencies a final
accounting for the 1998 contract in January or February 1999.
Unless there is a change in the scope of work for the coming year, or lack of joint funding from
other agencies, I anticipate that Durham would enter into another contract for services with
Multnomah County. We factored money into the FY 1998-99 budget to do so and the area
covered by the current program in Durham does not need to be expanded.
However, David has indicated that this would be the time for considering any changes in the
scope of work if you or another agency wanted to expand coverage. He would be able to
monitor possible additional areas this month and September. If you want to include an
expanded area in your jurisdiction, please advise.
Thank you for your continued cooperation in this matter.
Sincerely,
Roel C. Lundquist

WATER MANAGERS
IMP WORKSHOP
MEETING SUMMARY
JULY 21,1998
GRESHAM, OREGON
Attendance:
Tom Pokorny - PVRWD; David Gilbey - PVRWD; Mike Whiteley - PVWRD; Jerry
Arnold - WSWD; Jesse Lowman - TVWD; Ed Wegner - City of Tigard; Chris Uber -
MSA/City of Tigard; Harvey Barnes - Rockwood; Dale Anderson - City of Gresham;
Margory Leonard - Valley View Water District; Dennis Kessler - Portland Water
Bureau; Joe Glicker - Montgomery Watson.
The Water Managers Group discussed the Evaluation Criteria and Scenarios of the
Infrastructure Master Plan (IMP). The important issues from the Water Managers
perspective are:
• Reliability.
• Not having all resources in one basket.
• Having a partnership relationship in water management. This means:
- The right to firm water - capacity rights - not just "surplus" water.
- Agreements that do not end in 25 years.
- A voice in rate-setting and capital decisions.
- Assurance that everyone will have water.
• Allocation of costs - both equitable and timed so that people can pay.
• . Depoliticized governance structure.
• Reliance on technology for conservation savings, but not behavior as that can change.
• Knowledge of costs.
The Group agreed that there was a "core group" of projects which needed to be
constructed for the Portland system to improve its reliability and operations. These
projects are:
• A Bull Run Filtration Plant
• Conduit 5
• One or two more reservoirs at Powell Butte
• ASR and/or Groundwater improvements.
In addition, the Group felt that if another pipeline to the West side were to be constructed,
it ought to follow the Southern Route to allow intertie with the Clackamas River water
sources.
The Group discussed the concept of establishing a regional transmission system which
would link the existing Bull Run, Clackamas, and Tualatin sources, and the Willamette if
it is developed. Then any entity could obtain water from any of these sources if needed.
Viewed in that manner, any transmission pipeline which formed a component of this
regional link would have benefit to the region as a whole. The costs of all these projects
could be shared regionally instead of each pipeline having to be funded by one or two
entities. Source projects could then be developed by individual entities or various groups
of entities. It was agreed that this concept could form the basis for establishing the,type
of partnership the Group desired.
0
Evaluation of Alternatives
Discussions were held with purveyors of each developed water source. Of those
providers under consideration, only the City of Lake Oswego and the City of Portland
provide Tigard the potential for a long range supply of water from an existing supply
system. A long range supply of water could be obtained from the Willamette River
through a city-owned or a jointly owned supply system. These four alternatives were
evaluated under a set of eight criteria and ranked in comparison each other. The
eight criteria are:
1. Opportunity for City Ownership of Supply System
2. Water Supply Agreements and Contract Provisions
3. Required Improvements and Estimated Project Costs
4. Estimated Cost of Water
5. Water Rights
6. Water Quality
7. Supply Implementation Timing
8. Certainty of Supply

CHAPTER 4
EVALUATION OF ALTERNATIVES
General
Each of the supply alternatives presented in Chapter 3 have advantages and
disadvantages for Tigard. To quantify and assess these qualities, criteria must be
established by which each alternative can be evaluated. A wide range of criteria can
be used to evaluate the alternatives. This chapter presents eight criteria by which
each alternative is evaluated and ranked in comparison to the other alternatives.
These criteria are as follows:
1. Opportunity for City Ownership of Supply System
2. Water Supply Agreements and Contract Provisions
3. Required Improvements and Estimated Project Costs
4. Estimated Cost of Water
5. Water Rights
6. Water Quality
7. Supply Implementation Timing
8. Certainty of Supply
Ranking of Alternatives
A brief discussion of each alternative is presented for the individual criteria. Each
alternative receives a ranking for the criteria. The ranking ranges from 1 to 4, with 1
being the highest ranking and a 4 the lowest ranking. The ranking is relative and
some alternatives can receive an equal ranking for the same criteria.
Opportunity for City Ownership of Treatment and Supply Facilities
Certain supply alternatives give Tigard the opportunity for an ownership interest in
the supply system. It is of benefit to Tigard to gain an equity interest in its water
supply, treatment and delivery systems. Each alternative will be rated on whether
Tigard has the opportunity to gain ownership or an equity interest in an alternative.
City of Lake Oswego Supply
The City of Lake Oswego has indicated a willingness to discuss the potential formation
of a water authority or similar entity with Tigard. It is anticipated that such an
institutional arrangement would allow Tigard the opportunity for ownership of its
water supply, treatment and delivery systems. This alternative receives a ranking of
1.
93-0292.101 4-1
City of Portland Supply
It is anticipated that prior to the completion of the Phase 2 Plan Portland will not
consider changes in the present ownership arrangements of its water supply system.
There is presently no opportunity for acquiring an equity interest in the Portland
system. Portland has indicated that its consideration of long term supply
arrangements will rely on the results of the Phase 2 Plan. Whether Portland will
accept joint ownership of its water supply system by others is not known. This
alternative receives a ranking of 2.
Willamette River Supply
City of Tigard System
A City of Tigard supply system would be owned by the citizens of Tigard. This
alternative receives a ranking of 1.
Regional Supply System
It is anticipated that the development of a regional supply system will provide Tigard
the opportunity for ownership of these facilities. This alternative receives a ranking of
1.
Water Supply Agreements and Contract Provisions
Tigard has existing water service agreements with Lake Oswego and Portland. A
general description of these agreements is presented in Chapter 3. It is to Tigard's
advantage to pursue and enter into a water service contract that provides the city and
a potential provider with the fairest contract provisions. Each alternative is ranked on
the existing contract and the potential for renegotiation of the existing agreement with
more equitable terms. The highest ranked alternatives are those that provide Tigard
the opportunity to enter into a new agreement for water service that, among other
things, establishes the amount of water to be supplied, provides the potential for the
most equitable contract provisions and provides the potential for Tigard to have direct
and substantive input into the rate setting process.
City of Lake Oswego Supply
The existing agreement for water service between Lake Oswego and Tigard allows
Tigard to purchase surplus water, allows Lake Oswego to unilaterally establish the
cost of water and allows the supply of water to be reduced at Lake Oswego's
discretion. Lake Oswego has presented a framework for discussions of a new
institutional arrangement by which Tigard can gain water service through ownership
of facilities. It is anticipated that such an arrangement will provide Tigard the
opportunity to share in water supply and cost decisions through the potential creation
of a water supply authority or similar entity. This arrangement provides Tigard the
93-0292.101 4.2
opportunity to pursue a favorable water supply agreement. This alternative receives a
ranking of 1.
City of Portland Supply
The existing agreement for water service between Portland and Tigard allows Tigard to
purchase surplus water at rates established by Portland. While this contract is utility
based, water rates are established through calculations based on- an average annual
water use and peaking factors of past water use periods. Application of certain
provisions of this agreement result in variability of water rates and can cause
significant changes in these rates from year to year. While Portland has indicated
that there is a potential for a renegotiation of the existing contract, or any subsequent
contract, there are no indications of anticipated contractual provisions. This
alternative receives a ranking of 2.
Willamette River Supply
City of Tigard System
A city owned supply and treatment system would require no contract for service. This
alternative receives a ranking of 1.
Regional Supply System
It is anticipated that a regional supply system would allow Tigard the opportunity to
participate in the development of agreements for water service. Through this process
it would be expected that Tigard could secure a contractual framework that provides
water to Tigard on a cost of service basis. This alternative receives a ranking of 1.
Required Improvements and Estimated Project Costs
For each alternative under consideration required improvements have been identified
and estimated project costs developed. Project cost estimates include the cost of
treatment facilities, pumping facilities, transmission mains and any cost related to the
construction of new facilities required to bring a long term'supply of water to the city.
These costs also include costs that Tigard must pay to other providers for water. The
estimated project costs for each alternative are presented and discussed in Chapter 3,
Supply Alternatives. Each alternative is ranked according to the estimated costs of
implementing the supply alternative. All project cost estimates are in 1994 dollars
and include the estimated cost of improvements through the year 2020.
City of Lake Oswego Supply
It is estimated that the project cost of a Lake Oswego supply for Tigard will be
approximately $16.4 million. A summary of these costs is presented in Table 3-1.
This alternative receives a ranking of 2.
93-0292.101 4-3
City of Portland Supply
It is estimated that the project cost of a Portland supply for Tigard will be
approximately $6.05 million. This alternative receives a ranking of 1.
Willamette River Supply
City of Tigard System
The estimated project cost of a City of Tigard Willamette River water supply system is
approximately $35.0 million. This alternative receives a ranking of 4.
Regional Supply System
The estimated project cost of a regional Willamette River water supply system is
approximately $182.0 million. Tigard's estimated share of this cost is approximately
$18.2 million. This alternative receives a ranking of 3.
A
Estimated Cost of Water
The cost of water has been estimated for each alternative. As presented in Chapter 3,
these costs may include operation and maintenance costs, debt service for the
repayment of bonds used to finance initial capital improvements, depreciation costs
and/or a return on investment cost. These costs are presented in the cost per ccf of
water and represent the estimated cost of water in 1994 dollars. If possible,
consideration is also given to the estimate cost of water to the year 2020. Each
alternative is ranked according to its estimated costs of water.
City of Lake Oswego Supply
The estimated cost of water for the Lake Oswego supply is approximately $1.06 per
ccf. Based on the estimates presented in Chapter 3, the estimated cost of water may
decline over time as the user base expands and debts are retired. This alternative
receives a ranking of 1.
City of Portland Supply
The estimated cost of water for the Portland supply is variable. It may range from
approximately $0.80 to $1.05 per ccf. No determination of water costs beyond 1999
have been made. While the lower limit of this cost range is the lowest estimate of
probable water costs, the. potential for variability of costs and the uncertainty of
future water costs raises the relative ranking of the other alternatives. This
alternative receives a ranking of 1.
93-0292.101 4-4
Willamette River Supply
City of Tigard System
The estimated cost of water from a Willamette River supply owned by Tigard is
approximately $2.00. This alternative receives a ranking of 3.
Regional Supply System
The estimated cost of water from a regional Willamette River supply is approximately
$1.08 This alternative receives a ranking of 2.
Water Rights
Each alternative has water rights issues associated with the delivery of water to
Tigard. The inability to use or acquire water rights may make an alternative
unfeasible. Should Tigard develop a new water supply independently, water rights
issues become very important. When purchasing water from other water purveyors,
the water rights issues become a matter of evaluating the providers ability to meet the
contractual obligations to Tigard. Each alternative will be ranked on this issue when
comparing water supply alternatives.
City of Lake Oswego Supply
The City of Lake Oswego has water rights on the Clackamas and Willamette Rivers.
Lake Oswego has used these rights to supply surplus water to Tigard. Lake Oswego
has indicated the willingness to consider the potential of allowing these rights to be
used by an institutional entity comprised of Lake Oswego and Tigard in a water
supply authority or similar entity. This alternative receives a ranking of 1.
City of Portland Supply
The City of Portland has exclusive water rights to the Bull Run Watershed and
additional rights for the Columbia River Ground Water Well Field. Portland has used
these rights to supply water to wholesale users. Portland is awaiting the outcome of
the Phase 2 Plan prior to action on the further use of these rights or acquisition of
new rights such as on the Columbia River. This alternative receives a ranking of 2.
Willamette River Supply
City of Tigard System
The City of Tigard has no water rights on the Willamette River. This alternative
receives a ranking of 4.
93-0292.101 4-5
Regional Supply System
The Tualatin Valley Water District has water use permits on the Willamette River that
could potentially be used as a source for a regional treatment and supply system.
Tigard may gain access to these rights through participation in a regional water
supply entity. There are some issues related to the ability to use these rights that
remain unresolved. This alternative receives a ranking of 2.
Water Quality
All of the existing developed supply alternatives presently meet existing State and
Federal water quality requirements and would be expected to meet any future
requirements. Any development of a new Willamette River source will also meet water
quality requirements. All of the alternatives receive a ranking of 1.
Supply Implementation Timing
City of Lake Oswego Supply
It is estimated that this supply alternative could be operational in approximately 3 to
5 years. This alternative receives a ranking of 2.
City of Portland Supply
It is estimated that this supply alternative could be operational in approximately 1 to
3 years. This alternative receives a ranking of 1.
Willamette River Supply
City of Tigard System
It is estimated that this supply alternative could be operational in approximately 7 to
12 years. This alternative receives a ranking of 4.
Regional Supply System
It is estimated that this alternative could be operational in approximately 5 to 10
years. This alternative receives a ranking of 3.
Certainty of Supply
Each alternative is capable of providing of water to Tigard to meet its estimated 2020
needs with varying degrees of certainty. A discussion of the quantity of available
supply and conditions of this supply is presented with the description of each
alternative presented in Chapter 3. Each supply alternative is ranked on its relative
93-0292.101 4-6
certainty of meeting Tigard's water needs as presented in Chapter 2. For developed
systems, certainty of supply is the provider's expressed willingness to work with
Tigard in developing a firm long term water supply for the city. Alternatives with the
greatest potential to provide a firm long term water supply to Tigard rank the highest.
For undeveloped supplies, certainty of supply relates to the potential for successful
development of the supply. Alternatives with the greatest potential for providing
Tigard certainty of supply are ranked the highest.
City of Lake Oswego Supply
The Lake Oswego analysis of water service to Tigard concluded that expanded Lake
Oswego facilities would have adequate capacity to supply both cities to the year 2020.
The analysis also presented a documentation of required improvements and provided
a framework for discussions that offer Tigard control of its water supply availability.
This alternative receives a ranking of 1.
City of Portland Supply
The City of Portland has not indicated a firm commitment to supply water to Tigard.
This alternative receives a ranking of 2.
Willamette River Supply
City of Tigard System
A City of Tigard treatment facility on the Willamette would be designed to provide
adequate supplies to meet Tigard's 2020 estimated peak day demands. Issues related
to raw water availability reduce the ranking of this alternative. This alternative
receives a ranking of '4.
Regional Supply System
A regional supply system on the Willamette would be designed provide adequate
supplies to meet Tigard's 2020 peak day demands. The certainty of this supply is less
then for developed supply systems. The availability of existing water use permits,
however, improves the ranking of this alternative. This alternative receives a ranking
of 3.
Ranking Summary and Conclusion
A summary of the evaluation criteria and a tabulation of the evaluation ranking of
each alternative is presented in Table 4-1. The City of Lake Oswego supply alternative
receives the highest total final ranking. The City of Portland supply alternative ranks
second. A regional supply system on the Willamette River is ranked third and a City
of Tigard treatment facility on the Willamette ranks fourth. Recommendations for the
implementation of the Lake Oswego supply alternative are presented in Chapter 5.
