Tim Ramis, City Attorney, discussed his role in working with the Council. The Council discussed developing a system whereby the City Attorney informed the Council about the City projects his office is working on. The Council directed staff to use the in-house project list to develop a quarterly progress report for Council on the City Attorney's work. Mr. Ramis discussed his office's team approach to addressing the work previously handled by Mr. Coleman, and also discussed his plans to fill Mr. Coleman's position. Mr. Ramis answered questions from the Council. I CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES - FEBRUARY 15, 2000 Page 1 > Answers to Council Questions at Last Week's Meeting Jim Hendryx, Community Development Director, clarified that the USA Board of Directors adopted the Title 3 revisions into its design and construction standards, not the County Board of Commissioners. With regard to testimony from Ms. Sharon Gibb during the Walnut Island Annexations public hearing, Mr. Hendryx explained that staff did attempt to return Ms. Gibb's phone call, but there was no answer. Ms. Gibb had no answering machine, and Ms. Hajduk thought that Ms. Gibb had received a response from the other staff planner assigned to the project. > Goals Mr. Monahan reviewed the staff rewrites of Council goals per the Council discussion at the January 17 meeting. He reported that Pau: DeBruyn, Network Services, was working on a proposal for paperless Council meetings. He said that staff would return in April with the first goals update. > Water Issues Councilor Hunt commented that the discussion with the South Fork Water District looked promising insofar as it appears that Tigard would attain water rights and South Fork would benefit from an economy of scale. Mr. Monahan reported that Wilsonville was proceeding with the design of the water plant.

Ms. Wilkerson and Kendra Smith, Unified Sewerage Agency, answered questions from the Council and the Commission. Ms. Smith reviewed the County's current buffer standards for wetlands and greenways. She discussed the probable impacts of the new regulations on the County's requirements, including the elimination of Functional Plan Section 3.12 and an update of the County design and construction standards. She mentioned working through the buffer issue for the recreational trail system. She reported that they have developed a model planning process for the ESA response. Mayor Nicoli left at 8:28 p.m. 4.2 Downtown Association Update Mr. Hendryx introduced Tyler Ellenson, Downtown Association. He advised the Council that from the money budgeted for downtown planning, the Association has spent $10,000 of the $20,000 Council allocated. Mr. Ellenson asked the other Board members to introduce themselves. Mr. Ellenson presented a report on the activities of the Association since its last meeting with Council, mentioning the work of the Resource Team from the Oregon Downtown Development Association (ODDA). Mr. Hendryx stated that the Resource Team found many existing positive aspects to the downtown, and felt that the area has great economic potential. Council and Planning Commission members were impressed with the options and creativity demonstrated by the Resource Team and the Association. The Council, the Planning Commission, and the Association Board discussed various possibilities for achieving the economic potential of a renovated and more attractive Tigard downtown. Discussion topics included: expanding the downtown boundary, retaining existing small businesses, shuttle service, consolidation of antique stores, condition of downtown businesses, and the types of business that should be encouraged to locate in the downtown. Council President Moore noted that the Council was supportive of the Association's activities and willing to help however it could. Mr. Monahan stated that he was encouraged by ODDA's positive comments. He likes what has been accomplished to date, and felt that efforts to rejuvenate the downtown are heading in the right direction.

This is required as part of their Functional Plan for consistency with Statewide Planning Goal 5. Representatives from Metro will provide the City Council and Planning Commission with an overview of the proposed protection program. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Not applicable INFORMATION SUMMARY All riparian corridors in the Metro region are resources of regional significance for fish and wildlife. These areas provides essential habitat for many fish and wildlife species during critical life stages and development. Riparian corridors also provide basic food and shelter and serve as travel corridors for the movement of fish and wildlife species across the landscape. The Goal 5 Streamside CPR protection program is intended to protect and restore fish and wildlife habitat by addressing development in riparian resource areas. Riparian areas constitute a critical ecosystem in their own right and are a vital linking component between aquatic and terrestrial systems. A large variety of fish and wildlife species and the biological communities they form are, to varying degrees, dependent on properly functioning riparian areas. A basic principle of the regional Goal 5 CPR program is the identification of areas that currently provide, or can provide in the future, the functions and values inherent in riparian corridors. OTHER ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED Not applicable VISION TASK FORCE GOAL AND ACTION COMMITTEE STRATEGY Growth Management Goal 41 calls for accommodating growth while protecting livability, with natural resource protection identified as one of the action strategies under this goal.

The Metro area's first residents centered their lives in and around water. One important source of food for native tribes - salmon - came from the { water, while rivers and streams served as thoroughfares for native tribes. The e4irly explorers, trappers, miners, missionaries and settlers also exploited the region's rivers for transport, travel and industry. Today, rivers still play a major role in our transportation system, as well as providing important sources of drinking water, recreational opportunities, and fish and wildlife habitat. Riparian corridors are dynamic biological and physical systems. They are the interface between terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. The interaction between rivers and streams and their adjacent riparian and upland areas provides for a unique and diverse ecological system. The riparian corridor and its ' vegetation provide important functions and values for fish and wildlife, including the following: • food, water and cover for many fish and wildlife species; • travel routes for fish and wildlifo movement; j • large woody debris (LWD) to rivers and streams, a significant component of fish and wildlife habitat; • stream flow and water temperature regulation; and • streambank stability and sediment control. Riparian corridors in the Portland metropolitan region have been degraded by the cumulative impacts of human activities such as creating impervious surfaces, stream channeli7ation, urban landscaping, and road ' and utility construction in riparian corridors. Trends showing the decline of species diversity and ecological integrity of riparian corridors as a result of these human activities have been documented throughout the country. The National Marinc Fisheries Service (NMFS) has listed 12 salmonid evolutionarily significant units (BSUs) in the Columbia River Basin under the federal Endangered Species Act (ESA). All of these species are present in the Portland metropolitan area at sonic point in their life cycle. Fish in sonic of the RSUs migrate through the metropolitan area in die Columbia River and its tributaries as adults and juveniles. Others spawn and/or rear in metropolitan area streams. 1 In addition, nunieruus other federally listed fish and wildlife endangered species and species of concern may also be found in the Metro region. These include as listed species: Aleutian Canada goose and Peregrine falcon; species of concern: Pacific western big-cared bat, Northwestern pond turtle, Tricolored blackbird, Olive-sided flycatcher, Little willow flycatcher, Northern red-legged frog, Long-eared niyotis (fiat), Fringed niyotis (bat), bong-legged niyotis (bat), Yuma niyotis (bat), Green sturgeon and Pacific i lamprey. PROJECT GOAI S i The goat of this project is to identify strategics for managing riparian corridors in the Metro region to protect fish avid wildlife. habitat. This is part of Metro's broader effort to comply with Statewide Planning Coal 5, the 'State's land use goal for natural resources and open space protection. This project expands upon the. adopted Metro Stream and Floodl.,laln Prwaclion Plan (Title 3 of the Metro Urban Growth l i Melru SlreuniNkle (':/'!t Report S-1 December 1999 METRO-GROWTH MAN 503 797 1911 Feb 2,00 17:42 No.008 P.04 t i Management Functional Plan) regulations, which focus on water quality and flood management standards. Title 3, Section 5, identifies the need to protect regional resources for fish and wildlife. It also directs Metro staff to develop a regional program to conserve, protect and restore fish and wildlife habitat, ; hence the term "Streamside CPR." This project was initiated in early 1999 and was partially funded by the state Department of Land Conservation and Development (DLCD). Tile Streamside CPR project follows the prescribed sequence of analyses required by the Goal 5 rule, as 1 summari4ed below: • a discussion of riparian corridor ecology, including identification of the resource (Chapter 11); ; • a discussion of the inventory methodology (Chapter 111); ' • a determination of the resource significance (Chapter IV); q • a regionwide analysis of the Goal 5 economic, social, environmental and energy (ES131 ) consequences of allowing, limiting, or prohibiting confli_ting uses (Chapter V); and • a proposed Goal 5 riparian corridor protection program (Chapter VI). Statewide Planning Goal 5 [OAR 660-023-0090(1)] describes a riparian corridor as "the water areas, fish habiutt, adjacent riparian areas, and wetlands within the riparian area boundary." The riparian area, a component of the riparian corridor, is "the area adjacent to a river, lake or stream consisting of the area of transition from an aquatic ecosystem to a terrestrial ecosystem" The riparian area boundary is "an imaginary line that is a certain distance upland from the top of bank." A riparian corridor and its components. are illustrated below. Riparian Corridor (Statewide Planning Coal 5) ` i NXIetland a, r Stream Water Resource i Based on the many individual watershed and stream assessments that have been conducted, the region's riparian corridors exhibit impacts caused by urbanization typical of urban areas throughout the country. Resulting loss of habitat function has contributed to the decline of many fish and wildlife species that c once thrived throughout the region. The recent listing of several species of salmonids within this region i as "Threatened" under the Federal Endangered Species Pict by the National Marine Fisheries Service supports this conclusion. Based on analysis of federal, state, Metro and local policies; scientific research; public input; direction from Metro's Goal 5 Technical Advisory Conuniticc; and an inventory of riparian corridors, Metro staff concluded that all streams in the region, perennial as well as intermittent, are resources of regional significance. Further, based on public comments received during the Spring, 1999 Streamside CPR i workshops and the results of nutnerous recent public opinion surveys, a proactive regionwide approach is proposed in this report to respond to these declining resource conditions. Melru Sireunr.ride C l-R Report _ .S.2_ D ccinbc:• 1999 i METRO-GROWTH MAN 503 797 1911 Feb 2,00 17:43 No.008 P.OS t PROPOSED PROGRAM Metro staff conducted a regionwide analysis of the Goal 5 economic, social, etnvironmental and energy (I?SEC) consequences of allowing, limiting, or prohibiting conflicting uses in the riparian corridor. The ESEL', analysis indicates that a variety of existing and potential conflicting uses affect all riparian corridors in the region. The ESEL decision was to prohibit or limit conflicting uses within the riparian area (175 feet) and the impact area (25 feet). Conclusions from the ESE-B, analysis were taker) into account in developing the riparian corridor protection program, which is outlined below. Streanisidc CPR - Proposed Protection Program 1) Regional Safe Harbor Program i A clear and objective standards approach based on a review of the best available scientific literature and consideration of the ESEE consequences of protecting riparian corridors as a resource of regional significance. Under the Regional Safe Harbor Program, no new development, redevelopment or i disturbance is allowed within the regulated area, except in the instance where an existing lot of record( is so situated or so small that the regulated area cannot be avoided when development of the property is proposed. Disturbance areas shall be located as far from the water feature as possible with development first located in the unregulated portion of the property.

Averaging, on and off-site mitigation, as well as use of best management practices are included. i 2b) Local Riparian District Plan 1 A planning approach allowing a combination of parcels to be planned for development while addressing , the functions and values of riparian corridors. Relies on performance standards that have not yet been developed. ' A lot of record is defined as an individual piece of real property that can be legally conveyed from one owner to another witliout further approvals. Generally, this program is intended to prohibit partitions within the regulated area. ' 175 foot riparian area width plus 25 foot impact area , ' If the toe of a steep slope (25% or greater) occurs within the first 175 feet from top of bank, the regulated area i extends to the break in sleep slope or 175 feet, whichever is greater, plus the 25 foot impact area. The break in steep slope is where 25% slope ceases. ' Flood areas include. the UNA 100-year floodplain adjacent to the river or stream, and the extent ofthe f996 flood inundation arca adjacent to the river or sircain.

Streamside CPR- Cumplementayy Program Activities A. Watershed/stormwater Programs Ensure that watershed-wide planning and stormwater managcment programs are initiated. f R. Toolbox of Voluntary Initiatives j Provide a "toolbox" of CPR measures to local governments, watershed councils, "friends" groups and others to implement the voluntary component of the Streamside Ci'R Program goals. C. Monitoring j Develop a monitoring and evaluation program to periodically assess the effectiveness of the Streamside CPR Program. iE NEX1' STEPS j The following actions are important next steps to achieve the proposed Streamside CPR Protection 1}' Program. 1. Streamside CPR Program ~ Short Term • Include riparian corridor protection and restoration planning for urban reserve area (URA) master 1 planning and other areas recently brought into the urban growth boundary (UG13). Development.in these areas cannot proceed untll detailed planning is complete. • Develop information to clearly explain how this Streamside CI11t Protection Program relates to the existing Title 3 water quality and floodplain management regulations and to current local government Goal 5 efforts and ESA requirements. • Develop and produce a draft ordinance and functional plan language to amend Title 3, including a schedule for local compliance, subject to review by local governments, citizens and Metro technical advisory committees. I Lung Terin • Encourage, through training and printed material (e.g., brochures), broader protcetions than the minimum achieved through application of the proposed Streamside CPR Protection Program. ; • Develop a program to address stormwater impacts on riparian corridors and watershed planning, and link these to current Goal 5 upland work. 2. Public Involvement Activities Short 't'erm • Develop public involvement and information materials to explain the Streamside CPR Protection Program and program implementation. • Conduct a public open house series throughout the region and at local government council or commission meetings, by invitation, in January and February 2000.

Volunteer and Restoration Activities Short Terra • Besides voluntary citizen action, restoration opportunities iypically become available only at the time of development or redevelopment. Therefore, this program should establish the types of restoration that will be required to restore or enhance riparian corridor functions and values as part of development review. These requirements could be part of functional plan amendments. Long Term • Identify and prioritize restoration and acquisition opportunities in coordination with the Metro 1 Regional Parks and Greenspaces Department, local jurisdictions and watershed councils. Priorities would include those properties that are wholly encumbered by riparian area regulations. • Identify pi-cbles: oulvcrts and piped sections. Develop a strategy and timeline to address these issues. • Establish priorities for riparian corridor restoration and enhancement in the region. the Streatnside CPR project has defined the riparian functions to be protected; however, it does not identify the priorities for restoration. • Dcvelop a program to complement the land use regulatory component, which involves citizens, private landowners and others to implement volunteer activities in the "toolbox" of CPR measures. • Pursue finding; to implement these volunteer and restoration activities. 4. ]Monitoring and Evaluation Short Term • Develop a program that tracks how the Streamside CPR Protection Program is being, implemented ~ and how it should be adjusted to acbieve the program goals.

All development in the regulated area will tic required to use best management practices. Residential The permitted disturbance areas' for residential development (single family and multi family) will be based on a maximum square-foot disturbance area, which will vary with lot size. For purposes of discussion, it is proposed as follows: Table 13.

The disturbance area must be located as far away from the water as possible and the remainder of the lot ' must have or will be planted with native species trees and native groundcover. Lots 10,000 square feet and larger and wholly within the regulated area would be allowed up to 5,000 square feet of disturbance for residential uses. The disturbance is allowed provided that that the disturbance area will be as far away from the stream as possible and the remainder of the lot can be shown to have native species trees and native groundcover or will be planted with such vegetation. Non-Residential j Non-residential disturbance area maximums will also be based on a percentage of total lot size. Percentages will be less restrictive in the floodplain stream/river segments in order to reflect economic t aspects of the LSET, consequences analysis.

We all know that a new President will be elected and new faces will appear in Congress, but what does it mean for the economic development profession? Will the expansion of various federal programs for economic development such as brownfields, empowerment zones/enterprise communities, new markets programs, and greater small business assistance be continued or will there be new directions? Will a strong national economy last well into the next decide? Are financial incentives likely to be controlled by the feds? What about tax cuts to stimulate the economy? Are long-tern budget surpluses for real? The Economic Development Summit 2000 will present the authorities on these and many other relevant topics to give you their best estimates and predictions. Many leaders from federal agencies and departments, as well as members of Congress who have economic development responsibilities, will be present to offer their opinions and answer your questions.

What is the boundary of the district that will be forwarded to the County for consideration; who are the partners to the district? What is the proposed cost that the citizens will be asked to support. c) Review the results of the Atfalati Recreation District Feasibility Study and determine if the City should support formation of the dis',•rict by endorsing forwarding the results of the study to the Washington County Board of Commissioners asking that a measure be placed on the November 2000 ballot to form the District 3. a) Assist the Tigard Central Business District Association to develop a plan for the downtown. b) Tasks Continue to support the efforts of the Tigard Central Business District Association.

Task Update The 1999 Goal Setting also resulted in creation of tasks to be completed in 1999. The status of these tasks is as follows: 1. Support development of the Washington Square Regional Center Plan - a task force developed a plan that is now before Council for action in February. Further work on the need to coordinate the improvement of infrastructure at the time of development will be completed. 2. Continue to improve communication within the Council. This is an ongoing commitment of Council. It is not necessary to continue it as a task for 2000. 3. Expand the use of the City's web page - the City made significant strides in 1999 and will place even greater emphasis on using the web page as a communication tool in 2000. In addition, the Council created a new task, related to the web page.... 4. (New) Strive for implementing a paperless Council meeting in 2000. Staff will investigate the steps involved to convert to Council use of notebook computers, receiving Council packet information via the Internet, rather than the present Council packet materials. 1:ADM%BI LL\GOALS2000.
