MEETING MINUTES
MAY 8, 2001
a STUDY MEETING
The Study Meeting was called to order at 6:31 p.m.
Council present: Mayor Griffith, Councilors Dirksen, Moore, Patton, and Scheckla
(6:34 p.m.)
> ADMINISTRATIVE ITEMS
A proclamation for National Public Works Week, May 20-26, 2001,
would be added to the Business Meeting Agenda.
The Aquifer Storage at Removal agenda item, No. 5., was set over to a
June City Council meeting. A memorandum from Public Works Director
Ed Wegner was distributed to the City Council.
City Manager Monahan reviewed a request from the Tigard-Tualatin
School District to sponsor the Tigard High School graduation by placing the
fireworks display on the City's insurance policy. A copy of a letter from
School Superintendent Steve Lowder was distributed to the City Council.
Note: Councilor Scheckla arrived at 6:34 p.m.
City Manager noted the students would like have fireworks again this year
during the graduation ceremony. The City was being asked to endorse this
event as part of the City's insurance policy. At this time there is no cost to
the City for adding the event to the policy. The cost would occur should
there be a problem with the fireworks that would result in increased
insurance premiums. City Monahan will negotiate with the School District
to indemnify the City should there be a future impact on the insurance
policy because of the City's coverage of this event.
Councilor Scheckla asked about details of the event. The School District is
required to provide proof that the pyrotechnician is licensed.
Consensus of the City Council was that indemnification for future expense
would be needed. Also, the City Council would like the School District to
notify residents in the area about the fireworks display.
COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES - May 8, 2001 page 1
> EXECUTIVE SESSION: The Tigard City Council went into Executive Session
at 6:40 p.m. to discuss labor relations and real property transactions under
ORS 192.660(d) and (e).
Council reconvened into the Study Meeting at 7:03 p.m.
> A funeral coach is now part of the Police Department vehicle fleet for use in
the DARE program. This donated vehicle will be unveiled soon.
> City Manager Monahan reviewed an invitation to the VisionWest Project,
which is the Washington County Visioning Program. The County would
appreciate it if a delegation from the City of Tigard attended.
> Community Development Director Hendryx received a call from Tri Met
advising of the unveiling of the Ride Share program on May 24, at 1 p.m. at
the transit station. This is also known as the Access to Work Program. Mr.
Hendryx requested that City Council members attend if possible,
Councilor Scheckla asked why the bus shelter near Ripley's Furniture store
was removed. City Manager Monahan advised he would attempt to obtain
information on this matter.
> City Manager Monahan reported that there was a break-in on May 6, 2001,
at the Senior Center. At this time, there is little information available. Mr.
Monahan will update the City Council as information is received.
> City Manager Monahan reported that the City of Tualatin is discussing the
idea of an ordinance concerning tobacco use. Mayor Griffith noted that the
Oregon Legislature may pass a bill that would not allow cities to pass their
own ordinances with regard to tobacco-use restrictions for businesses.
Tualatin Mayor Lou Ogden has requested that communities in this region
pass a resolution restricting tobacco use in businesses. After brief discussion,
Council consensus was the City of Tigard would not pursue such a resolution
at this time. Councilor Scheckla advised he did not want to deal with this
issue. Councilor Dirksen concurred with Councilor Scheckla and advised he
thought this kind of regulation was outside the purview of the City.
Councilor Moore noted that he chooses to patronize businesses that did not
promote smoking in the establishment; however, this decision should be left
to the business owners.
Mayor Griffith said that he believed the decision of whether or not to allow
smoking should be a business owner's decision. Councilor Patton noted that
COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES - May 8, 2001 page 2
she had mixed feelings because of health concerns, but she would go along
with the majority of the Council as she also had a problem with trying to
dictate to businesses how they should operate.
Community Development Director Hendryx noted that he thought this type
of ordinance would also pose some code enforcement problems.
> City Manager Monahan reported to the Council that Community Partners for
Affordable Housing (CPAH) comes to the City on an annual basis to request
a property tax exemption. A resolution was adapted for this purpose for
CPAH earlier this year. When the CPAH obtains approvals of 51 % of the
taxing entitites, then they become totally exempt from property taxes. The
City of Tigard only has the authority to exempt CPAH from Tigard property
taxes.
Initially (the first year) CPAH also went to the School and Fire Districts to
make a similar request - to be exempt from those taxes as well. CPAH has
not had to pay property taxes apportioned to the City, School District and
Fire District in subsequent years; however, CPAH has not submitted a new
exemption request to the School and Fire Districts for years after the initial
request, as they should have done. Staff noted Sheila Fink of CPAH has
expressed concerns in that it was her understanding that she only had to
make a request to the City of Tigard each year for the exemption. Staff
reiterated that the City of Tigard cannot approve exemptions that would
absolve CPAH of tax obligations for other entitites. The solution is for Ms.
Fink to approach the other two agencies and request the exemption.
Councilor Scheckla asked for an update with regard Chief of Police Ron
Goodpaster`s recent memorandum concerning issues with Villa La Paz, a
CPAH property. CPAH has been working closely with the Police
Department to reduce incidents of crime. Chief Goodpaster met with CPAH
today. It was noted that when Villa La Paz first was established by CPAH,
criminal activity was reduced. The activity has recently increased
substantially. Executive Director Sheila Fink was advised that changes are
needed to correct issues at Villa La Paz.
> City Manager Monahan distributed a memorandum on police trading cards
to the City Council.
> Mayor Griffith noted that he wanted to discuss with the City Council a
request by the Tigard Rotary to increase the Balloon Festival Parking fees.
The Study Meeting recessed at 7:26 p.m.

ITEMS)

to order at 7:34 p.m.
1.2 Roll Call: Mayor Griffith, Councilors Dirksen, Moore, Patton, and Scheckla
1.3 Pledge of Allegiance
1.4 Council Communications ex Liaison Reports
Mayor Griffith noted some follow-up information from a recent Washington
County Coordinating Committee meeting. The traffic study for 1-217 has
received a No. 1 priority ranking and will go forward. This will be of benefit
to the Washington Square Regional Plan, which is nearly completed.
1.5 Call to Council and Staff for Non-Agenda Items
City Manager Monahan noted that Agenda Item No. 5, Aquifer Storage and
Recovery Feasibility Study Progress Report, will be postponed. It is likely that
this item will return to the City Council's agenda in June to give the
Intergovernmental Water Board an opportunity to review.
2. VISITOR'S AGENDA
• Mr. Jaime Ramsey, 15367 SW Fir Street, Tigard, Oregon noted a number of
questions about the property for Agenda Item No. 8. He noted his confusion with
regard to ownership of the property - whether it was owned by the City or by the
water entity.
City Manager Monahan clarified that Public Works Director Ed Wegner was
authorized by the Intergovernmental Water Board to handle the transaction on
behalf of the Water Board. Mr. Ramsey noted that he would like to see the City
develop trails and restrict use of the property. The property is zoned R-25. Mr.
Ramsey said the neighborhood is concerned.
Mr. Ramsey said he was not notified that this ',tem was on the agenda. After
hearing a number of Mr. Ramsey's concerns, Councilor Patton advised Mr.
Ramsey that the City Council was not prepared to respond to all of his issues at
tonight's meeting. Through direction by the IWB to the Public Works Director,
the Tigard City Council is serving as the agent for the IWB in this transaction.
While the City Council is not prepared to address the questions posed by Mr.
Ramsey at this meeting, staff and Councilor Patton indicated that they would
COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES - May 8, 2001 page 4
obtain the information and offered to meet with Mr. Ramsey. After some
discussion, it was decided that contact would be made with Mr. Ramsey to set up
a meeting to review his issues.
Gary Parcher, 15362 Fir Tree Drive, Tigard, Oregon, advised he had similar
issues expressed by Mr. Ramsey. He indicated he would like to be included in the
meeting discussed above.
• Stanley Wood, 16224 SW 1131' Avenue, Tigard, Oregon, noted he was
concerned about a parking issue on SW 11311 Avenue. He said a school bus has
parked at this location for several days. When questioned, Mr. Wood indicated he
had contacted the Police Department and it appears that a sticker has been placed
as notice to the owner on this vehicle. City Manager Monahan explained that
there is a requirement for a posting to be done and the registered owner to be
notified. It appears that the parking problem with this vehicle is in the process of
being resolved. Mr. Monahan said that if this is a continuing problem, perhaps this
area should be posted as a "No Parking" area.

b. Staff Report
Associate Planner Duane Roberts gave the Staff Report. The report is on file
with the City Recorder. Mr. Roberts noted public input to date. Mr. Roberts
recommended the parking standards not be adopted with regard to general
recreation; rather that the City Council consider parking standards based on
the experience of other cities. Such standards call for five stalls for a one acre
or larger area, and three stalls for a one acre or smaller area. Mr. Roberts
reviewed the staff report including the Planning Commission's
recommendation, and staff response to the recommendation.

area. Property Manager John Roy said yes.
Aileen Cord, 9770 SW Riverwood, Tigard, Oregon, 97224, noted
that she would be grateful if the Council would consider removing the
prohibition of community recreation in industrial areas. She said the
Committee has found a site that would be feasible. She thanked the
Council for the Ash Street park, stating that it has worked well. She
COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES - May 8, 2001 page 6
noted that one night there were 17 dogs in the park. While the park is
too small, she explained that it was a perfect ivay to "try out" a dog
park.
® Christie Smith, 11320 SW Ambiance, Tigard, Oregon, 97223, said
the Committee has looked at dog parks in neighborhoods, but noted this
is not an ideal location. Ms. Smith added that a commercial area
seemed better suited for a dog park because the traffic and noise would
not infringe on a neighborhood.
Ms. Smith read a letter of support from Paula Walker into the Council
record. The letter is. on file with the City Recorder.
Jim Garbarino, 9920 SW Riverwood Lane, Tigard, Oregon, 97224,
reported it had been a struggle to find a suitable piece of property for a
dog park. The short-term goal of the Committee is to locate a dog park
in the industrial park area. The long-term goal, within the next five to
ten years, would be to have something bigger and better. Mr.
Garbanno said he appreciated the City Council's leadership on the dog
park matter. He noted neighborhood sites were not acceptable to
neighbors.
Larry Galizio, 16455 SW 93rd Avenue, Tigard, Oregon, 97224,
thanked Duane Roberts and John Roy for working with the Task Force.
He noted that many people would like to have a place for their dogs to
nun. He thought the proposed amendment was a good idea. He
advised that a dog park was a nice gathering place for the community.
• Stephan J. Petruzelli, 9980 SW Riverwood, Tigard, Oregon, 97224,
had signed in to testify in opposition. He advised Mayor Griffith that
he did not wish to testify.
® Fritz Kramer, 9830 SW Riverwood Lane, Tigard, Oregon, stated he
was saddened that the dogs would not be using the park in his
neighborhood. He said he enjoyed the dogs and the people coming to
the area.
® Andrew Spiak, 9825 SW O'Mara, Tigard, Oregon, advised that he
goes to the current dog park about four times a week. He noted that
while the park was small, it was a great place for the dogs to interact.
He said the park was a place to meet other people and expressed his
appreciation to the Council.
COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES - May 8, 2001 page 7
In response to a question from Councilor Scheckla, Mr. Splak identified
several other dog parks that he was aware of.
® Chris Gaisteck, 11774 SW 125' Court, Tigard, Oregon, noted that
the dog park was a good gathering place where both dog owners and
dogs benefited from the park. She said the park was a place for senior
citizens and families to socialize with others.
Bob Gordon, 13037 SW Ascension, Tigard, Oregon, also noted the
positive social aspect of the dog park.
Jennifer Steen, 14130 SW 10011 Tigard, Oregon, stated that she
supported the park.
d. Council Discussion, Questions, Comments
Councilors Moore, Dirksen and Scheckla all gave comments in support of the
dog park. In response to a question from Councilor Moore, Mr. Roberts
explained the difficulties with the dog park at Cook Park. There is a current
intergovernmental agreement regarding setbacks. If Cook Park were to be
used, planning and policy decisions on standards would need to be reviewed,
along with neighborhood considerations. Mayor Griffith noted that there was
an issue with the floodplain at Cook Park.

recommended by the Planning Commission and establishment of off-street
parking requirements for dog parks.

> CITY MANAGER REVIEW
This item was set over to the May 15 Council meeting.
> ADMINISTRATIVE ITEMS:
City Manager Monahan reviewed the draft sponsorship agreements. After brief
discussion and review, Council directed staff to tailor the agreements to each of the
events' needs and concerns.
Paperless Council Packet - City Attorney Ramis reviewed a memorandum from his
office, dated May 4, 2001. The paperless Council packet would not affect the
process for executive sessions. The practical consideration would be to keep executive
session materials separate from the regular meeting items.
Mr. Ramis advised that any notes taken on the electronic copies of the Council
agendas are technically a public record. Many notes taken are of an ephemeral nature
and have importance for only a very short time.
Mr. Monahan advised that the City of Tigard has been approached by the Salt Lake
Olympics Organizing Committee for the Torch Run. The Committee has expressed
an interest in routing the Torch Run through Tigard in January, 2002. After brief
discussion, Council consensus was to pursue the idea.
Mayor Griffith reported that he had been approached by a Balloon Festival
Committee member and was asked to increase parking fees from three to four dollars.
While the City of Tigard does not have the authority to grant an increase, nor does it
typically get involved in setting the fees for parking, the Balloon Festival organizers
would like the City Council to be aware of their proposal. After discussion, the
Council's opinion was if the three dollar parking charge had been advertised, the
increase should not occur this year.
COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES - May 8, 2001 page 11
Mr. Monahan asked Council about a request from the Growth Management Caucus
for a $2,750 contribution. At present, the Council was not Interested In making this
contribution.
A second request for a contribution was received from Westside Economic Alliance.
The Alliance was looking for funding to conduct a study on the westside economy.
After discussion, the Council decided not to contribute.
Mr. Monahan will advise Council of the City's participation in the Westside
Transportation Alliance.
Mr. Monahan distributed a request for an increase in rates for the city attorney's
office. This item- will be placed in the City Council packet next week. Mr. Monahan
described the calculation contained in his memorandum, noting that this has been
reviewed by Mr. Ramis. Mr. Ramis suggested what could be done to mitigate the
impact of the rate Increase.

STAFF REPORT TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION 4/1612001 PUBLIC HEARING
ZOA2000-00005 PAGE 1 OF 7
SECTION III. BACKGROUND INFORMATION
The City of Tigard, as applicant, requests approval of a Zone Ordinance Amendment to
amend Table 18.530.1 of the Community Development Code to allow Community Recreation
as a Conditional Use within specific overlay areas of the I-P, I-L, and I-H zoning districts.
These overlay areas are proposed to include two types:
1. land classified as floodplain on City flood maps, when the Recreational Use does not
otherwise preclude future cut and fill as needed to develop adjoining industrially
zoned upland, and
2. land located outside the floodplain as shown on City floodplain maps, when the
Recreational use is temporary and does not otherwise preclude allowed uses or other
Conditional Uses within the zoning district.
The net effect of the proposed amendment would be to make additional land available for
recreational uses without interfering with the supply of land designated for economic
development and without overwhelming the industrial uses.
SECTION IV. SUMMARY OF APPLICABLE CRITERIA
Chapter 18.380 states that legislative text amendments shall be undertaken by means
of a Type IV procedure, as governed by Section 18.390.060G.
Chapter 18.390.060E states that the recommendation by the Commission and the
decision by the Council shall be based on consideration of the following factors:
The Statewide Planning Goals and Guidelines adopted under Oregon Revised
Statutes Chapter 197;
Notice was provided to DLCD 45 days prior to the first scheduled public hearing as required.
In addition, the Tigard Development Code and Comprehensive Plan have been
acknowledged by DLCD. The following are the applicable Statewide Planning Goals that are
applicable to this proposal:
Statewide Planning Goal 1 - Citizen Involvement:
This goal outlines the citizen involvement requirement for adoption of Comprehensive Plans
and for changes to the Comprehensive Plan and implementing, documents. This goal has
been met by complying with the Tigard Development Code noce requirements set forth in
Section 18.390. Notice was mailed to all owners of property with all industrial zones and
notice was published in the Tigard Times Newspaper prior to the public hearings. Two
Public Hearings are held (one before the Planning Commission and the second before the
City Council) in which public input is welcome.
Statewide Planning Goal 2 - Land Use Planning:
This goal outlines the land use planning process and policy framework. The Comprehensive
Plan was acknowledged by DLCD as being consistent with the statewide planning goals.
The Development Code implements the Comprehensive Plan. The Development Code
establishes a process for and policies to review changes to the Development Code
consistent with Goal 2. The City's plan provides analysis and policies with which to evaluate
a request for amending the Code consistent with Goa 2.
STAFF REPORT TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION 4116/2001 PUBLIC HEARING
ZOA2000-00005 PAGE 2 OF 7
Statewide Planning Goal 5 - Open Spaces, Scenic & Historic Areas & Natural
Resources:
This goal establishes a process through which resources must be inventoried and evaluated.
It gives local government three choices when a resource is found: Preserve it, allow
proposed uses that conflict with it, or establish a balance between the resource and those
uses that would conflict with it. In this case, the City code includes standards that preserve
the floodplain and other environmentally constrained sites. The proposed zone ordinance
amendment would not conflict with this goal or the City's implementation of it. The City's
established standards for riparian and natural resource protection would apply in full to any
proposed recreational uses within the floodplain and upland overlay zones.
Statewide Planning Goal 8 - Recreational Needs
This goal requires the Cify to meet the recreational needs of residents of the community,
State, and visitors. The proposed amendment meets this goal by making available for
recreational uses, a limited amount of additional land within the City. In addition to City
residents, the amendment would benefit the employees of Tigard-based businesses by
making unused and unuseable land available for nearby recreational opportunities.
Statewide Planning Goal 9 - Economy
This goal obligates the City to zone sufficient land for commercial and industrial uses and to
limit uses to those that are compatible with the commercial and industrial uses. The
proposed amendment places appropriate restrictions/standards on recreational uses in
industrial zones to ensure compliance with Goal 9. The amendment includes standards that
limits the location of the recreational uses to land (floodplain), which is unbuildable for
industrial purposes, except that balanced cut and fill is allowed, and to projects on buildable
land that are temporary in duration and do not otherwise preclude allowed uses or other
Conditional Uses within the zoning district.
Any applicable Metro regulations;
Two Metro regulations need to be considered with regard to this request:
Title 1: Requirements for Housing and Employment Accommodation
Under this title, the City needs to consider employment targets established for Tigard.
Allowing a limited amount of recreation within (1.) environmentally constrained flood land,
within which, except for balanced cut and fill, industrial development is prohibited, and (2.)
vacant upland that will continue to remain available for conversion to industrial use as
market conditions dictate, should not affect the City's ability to meet those targets. The
proposed overlay standards restricting the location and duration of the recreational uses
ensure that the uses do not interfere with or overwhelm the industrial uses.
Title 3: Water quality and Flood Management
This goal contains performance standards intended to protect against flooding and to protect
and enhance streams, rivers, and wetlands. The areas subject to these requirements are
depicted in maps adopted by Metro Council. Tigard is in the process of adopting standards
that meet or exceed the Metro requirements. Any recreational uses proposed within the
mapped areas would be required to fully comply with these and any future environmental
standards. No special exception from environmental or any other code provision would be
provided by the proposed amendment.
STAFF REPORT TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION 4/16/2001 PUBLIC HEARING
ZOA2000-00005 PAGE 3 OF 7
e Applicable Comprehensive Plan Policies:
Comprehensive Plan Policy 1.1.1:
In pertinent art, this policy states that all future legislative changes shall be consistent with
the Statewidee Planning Goals and the Regional Plan adopted by Metro. As indicated above
under the individual Statewide and Regional Plan goals applicable to this proposed
amendment, the amendment is consistent with the Statewide Goals and Regional Plan.
Comprehensive Plan Policy 2.1.1:
This policy states that the Cites shall maintain an ongoing citizen involvement program and
shall assure that citizens will 6e provided an opportunity to be involved in all phases of the
planning process. This policy is satisfied because notice of the proposed amendment was
mailed to all Citizen Involvement Team (CIT) Facilitators and the amendment was discussed
at a regular monthly CIT meeting. In addition, two Public Hearings are held (one before the
Planning Commission and the second before the City Council) in which public input is
welcome.
Comprehensive Plan Policy 2.1.2 and 2.1.3:
In pertinent part, this policy states that the Citizen Involvement Team program and the
Citizen Involvement Team Facilitators shall serve as the primary means for citizen
involvement in land use planning. Policy 2.1.3 states that information on land use planning
issues shall be available in understandable form. These policies were satisfied because
notice of the proposed amendment was mailed to all Citizen Involvement Team (CIT)
Facilitators and the amendment was discussed at a regular monthly CIT meeting. An
attempt was made in the written and oral notices to explain the amendment in plain English.
Comprehensive Plan Policy 3.5.1:
This policy states that the City shall encourage private enterprise and intergovernmental
agreements that provide for open space and recreation. This goal is implemented by the
proposed amendment, because the amendment allows the owners of vacant industrial
zoned land to make the land available for recreational uses during the period before the land
is needed for industrial development. The amendment also furthers the goal by allowing
industrial zoned floodplain to be used for recreational uses. This brings the industrial zones
on par with the residential zones, where recreational uses currently are allowed on flood land
as a Conditional Use.
Comprehensive Plan Policy 3.6.1:
This policy states that individual park sites shall be developed according to a priority system,
with larger-size parks receiving the highest priority and smaller-sized parks the lowest. The
present amendment does not affect the prioritization of park improvements. It merely
increases opportunities for the establishment of park areas of all sizes within the City. As a
practical matter, given the existing inventoryof vacant industrial land, most potentially
available sites, in terms of size, would fall into the neighborhood-level and below categories.
The investment of park resources in any particular site is a policy decision made through the
City's Capital Improvement Budget Process and guided by the park master plan and
comprehensive plan policies.
Comprehensive Plan Policy 3.6.2:
This policy states that the City shall coordinate with other public and private organizations
and affected property owners in order to facilitate the implementation of the City s adopted
parks plans. The present amendment, in part, was initiated in response to citizen's effort to
establish a dog park within an area zoned for light industrial use. The property in question
is land owned by and designated for the future expansion of a major City industrial employer.
STAFF REPORT TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION 4/16/2001 PUBLIC HEARING
ZOA2000-00005 PAGE 4 OF 7
The owner in question is willing to allow the dog park as a temporary use, because the
proposed expansion of the enterprise is not scheduled to take place until approximately
2011 and the dog park use will not interfere with the operation of the existing facility The
adopted Park System Master Plan identifies the need for three dog parks within the City and
Urban Services Area combined. The case of the dog park is an example of how the
amendment will facilitate public-private coordination in order to facilitate implementation of
the parks master plan.
Any applicable provisirn of the City's implementing ordinances.
Code Section18.380:
This section regulates amendments. It outlines the process for reviewing Development Code
Text Amendments. The present amendment will be reviewed under the Type IV procedure
as set forth in the chapter: .
Code Section 18.390:
This chapter establishes standard decision-making procedures for reviewing applications.
The amendment under consideration will be reviewed under the Type IV procedure as
detailed in the chapter.
Code Section 18.530:
The purpose of this chapter is to ensure that a full range of job and economic opportunities is
available within the City. The present amendment does not in any way interfere with or limit
job and economic opportunities within the City. The amendment improves the quality of life
and business climate within the City by allowing recreational uses within certain overlay
zones. These zones are conditioned specifically to avoid interfering with present and future
industrial activities. Industrial Uses are prohibited with the floodplain, except for balanced
cut and fill, and upland areas may be used for Recreation only until the land is needed for
industrial development.
SECTION V. STAFF ANALYSIS
The Tigard Community Development Code (CDC) currently prohibits the Community
Recreation Use within the I-P, I-L, and I-H zoning districts. The present request is to amend
the Community Development Code to allow outdoor Community Recreation as a Conditional
Use within all three zoning districts. Recreational Uses are proposed to be limited in terms
of either location or duration through the establishment of two circumstances. One
circumstance would include land classified as floodplain on City flood maps. Outdoor
recreation would be allowed in this instance provided it did not otherwise preclude balanced
cut and fill as needed (and permit approval obtained) to develop an adjoining industrially
zoned property. An example of a Recreational Use under this circumstance would be the
establishment of an open play area on City-owned land located entirely within the 100-year
floodplain of an area zoned for Light Industrial development. The second circumstance
would include land located outside the floodplain as shown on City floodplain maps.
Outdoor recreation would be allowed as a Conditional Use in this case only when the
recreational use did not preclude allowed uses or Conditional Uses other than outdoor
recreation. The Recreational Use would be temporary. It would be allowed to continue until
such time as the conversion of the property to an allowed or conditional use other than
recreation occurred. An example of such a Recreational Use would be the establishment
STAFF REPORT TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION 4/16/2001 PUBLIC HEARING
ZOA2000-00005 PAGE 5 OF 7
and operation of a public dog off-leash area on vacant industrial property under a revocable
lease agreement until such time as the property were needed by the lease holder for the
expansion of an existing industrial operation or sold for other industrial development. No
changes to existing CDC regulations pertaining to floodplain protection are proposed.
According to the Tigard Comprehensive Plan, the present restrictions on unrelated uses
within commercial and industrial zoning districts are intended to protect the land within these
districts for uses that provide employment opportunities for City residents and improve the
City economic base. The main justification for the proposed amendment is that allowing
Community Recreation within the proposed overlay areas would enhance and improve the
city's livability, but at the same time would have no appreciable impact on the supply of land
available for industrial development. The latter is true for two reasons. First, the current
code prohibits industrial ,development within the 100-year floodplain. An exception to this
prohibition is that balanced cut and fill is allowed. Under the proposed amendment,
floodplain could be used for outdoor recreation only when such use did not otherwise
preclude future balanced cut and fill as needed (and permit approval obtained) to develop an
adjoining industrially zoned property. Second, under the proposed amendment, land
developed for an outdoor recreational use outside the floodplain would not be removed from
the inventory of industrially designated land, but would continue to be available for
conversion to industrial use as market conditions dictated.
Another justification for this change is that since 1996 the City has imposed a fee on new
commercial and industrial development, i.e., $49 per employee. According to the 1996
Park System Development Charge (SDC) study, commercial and industrial development
contributes an annual average of some $40,000 to the Park SDC Fund. The rationale for
this fee is that the employees of Tigard-based businesses spend a portion of their time in
the City using local recreational facilities. Prohibiting Recreational Uses within commercial
and industrial zones, while at the same time charging such development for its impact on
the demand for parks, unnecessarily and unreasonably limits the potential supply of nearby
recreational opportunities available to the employees of local businesses.
In conclusion, the supply of land available for recreational uses is dwindling, while land
prices are at an all-time high. The proposed changes would make lower priced (1)
environmentally constrained and (2) undeveloped commercially and industrially zoned land
available to meet the outdoor recreational needs of local residents and employees. At the
same time, the City's inventory of commercial and industrial land would not be threatened or
overwhelmed by the recreational uses.
SECTION V11. ADDITIONAL CITY STAFF AND OUTSIDE AGENCY COMMENTS
The City of Tigard Public Works Department has had an opportunity to review this
proposal and has offered the following comments:
Public Works Division supports the proposed amendment to make additional land available
for recreational purposes.
The City of Tigard Dog Park Steering Committee has had an opportunity to review this
proposal and has offered the following comments:
STAFF REPORT TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION 4116/2001 PUBLIC HEARING
ZOA2000-00005 PAGE 6 OF 7
Members of the Planning Commission, on behalf of the Tigard Dog Park Citizens
Committee, we strongly agree that some recreational use should be permitted on industrially
zoned property. We strongly support the amendment to alter the current zoning regulation.
For several months, the Citizens committee has been desperately trying to establish a "dog
park" (off leash area) in Tigard. We have become acutely aware of the lack of available
property for such a site in Tigard. Additionally, the need for such a site (or two or three) in
Tigard, has too become painfully apparent.
The committee has currently selected two potential sites for further discussion and
consideration. One of the sites is currently zoned industrial property.
As Committee Chairman, and on behalf of the committee, we ask for your deepest
consideration in amending the existing zoning ordinance, and allow some recreational use in
industrial property zones*.,
Thank you for your time, Jeff Miller, Chair, Dog Park Task Force.
Washington County Department of Land Use and Transportation, City of Tigard
Current Planning Division, DLCD, and Metro Land use and Planning Growth
Management have all had an opportunity to review this proposal and have offered no
comments or objections to the proposed Zone Ordinance Amendment.

MEMORANDUM
CITY OF TIGARD
TO: City Council ,'n
FROM: Jim Hendryx CZ&.,1~
DATE: April 26, 2001
SUBJECT: Growth Management Caucus Membership
Rob Drake, Mayor of Beaverton, is requesting that Tigard City Council consider becoming a
member of the Growth Management Caucus. The Caucus supports 18 cities, counties, and
special districts in the region by keeping them informed and assisting with growth management
related activities in the region. Tigard was previously a member of the caucus until last year when
it was decided not to participate.
The primary focus of the caucus is to keep elected officials informed on growth management
issues and provide a forum for discussion among participating members.
The City's membership amounts to $2,750 for the coming year. Future dues will vary depending
on the assigned work program determined by caucus members.
In order for the City to benefit from membership in the Growth Management Caucus, Council
should appoint a liaison who will actively participate in the caucus meetings and provide regular
updates to the full Council on points of discussion and decisions made. Without Council's
involvement, there would be little benefit to joint the Growth Management Caucus. Previously,
staff attended focus meetings and supported the Council's liaison. However, with the departure of
Nadine Smith and Julia Hajduk's planned maternity leave, we will be unable to offer this support
until we are fully staffed again, which will probably be in the fall.

DATE: April 17, 2001 . RECEIVED C.O.T.
TO: Growth Management Caucus members APR 2 3 2001
FROM: Rob Drake, Mayor of Beaverton
. Administration
RE: Growth Management Caucus
The Growth Management Caucus supports 18 cities, counties and special districts in the region by
keeping us informed and assisting with the growth management related activities in the region. Their
good working relationship with Metro staff and their advance staff work has helped MPAC members
efficiently stay on top of things and focus our energies on the most significant issues. With their
assistance, we have worked with Metro to constructively resolve conflicts before they become potentially
controversial issues. Staff has also worked with Caucus members having different points of view to help
members within the local government family come to consensus on issues of mutual interest.
We encourage you to join this organization and benefit from this collective staff work.
Both FOCUS and now the Growth Management Caucus has demonstrated that collective thinking and
sometimes action can produce tangible results. During the past year, the efforts of the Caucus have
impacted a number of issues, including:
~l Initiation of MPAC's discussion on subregional analysis;
Goal 5 Vision Statement and Metro's legal_authority;
Metro's periodic review process and tasks; and
Long range regional growth management, including issues related to the preservation of farm and
forest land.
Regional issues discussed at Metro will continue to be of importance to local governments in the next
year. With the Court of Appeals decision remanding the Rosemont UGB expansion decision back to
Metro, Metro's land need must be recalculated. In addition, Metro's periodic review process will continue
through 2002 and the analysis and decisions made during this time will have lasting impacts on the region.
Other issues, such as Goal 5, the Endangered Species Act and Measure 7, continue to be unresolved and
will also impact how and where local governments provide services.
For the next year, as Metro continues to study the region's land need and location of future UGB
expansion, many more issues will be analyzed that have significant impact on local governments as
service providers. Among those critical issues are:
i Resolution of the Recent Court of Appeals Decision on the Rosemont Property UGB
Decision. How will Metro accommodate the need now unmet with the remand of the decision
to bring the Rosemont property into the UGB?
e Subregional Need. Should Metro look at the impacts of Region 2040 on a regional scale
and/or smaller parts of the region?
Periodic Review. Will periodic review show a land need? Can that be accommodated
through upzoning of the land inside the UGB or will it require a UGB expansion?
Urban Growth Boundary Expansion. If a need is justified, which lands should be added to
the UGB in 2002?
• Funding for Local Implementation of Region 2040, the UGM Functional Plan and
Regional Framework Plan: Are there regional options available to help finance badly needed
infrastructure and Metro required planning?
• Goal 14. Will LCDC adopt the proposed amendments to Goal 14 and how will that impact
the Metro region and decisions for UGB expansion?
The opportunity provided by the Caucus allows us to share ideas and experience outside the Metro
process, and enables us to better interpret the information provided by Metro and actions occurring by
interest groups in the region. This informal communication has resulted in revisions that were of significant
benefit to local governments and might have gone through unnoticed, creating implementation roadblocks,
if not for the Caucus. The staff work provided by McKeever/Morris, a division of Parsons Brinckerhoff, has
helped us make the best use of our staff resources. Their assistance will be even more critical next year
as Metro continues its periodic review process.
Last July, Growth Management Caucus members approved a budget of $74,700 for the year. There is
approximately $30,000 remaining in the budget, which will allow services to continue through the end of
September. In anticipation of the local government budget cycle, we asked McKeever/Morris to prepare a
budget for the next fiscal year. Because the existing budget can support services through September, a
budget has been prepared for nine months of service (September 2001 through June 2002) rather than
the 12-month cycle that we. have had in the past.. This results in a budget reduction of approximately 40
percent for all local governments. A summary of the work scope is attached for your review.
Fee allocation for the Growth Management Caucus is based on a base fee that apportions the costs of
operation on each jurisdiction's population. An enclosed chart lists the individual membership fees. As a
result of expenses being less than anticipated this year, the current funding will support the Caucus
through September 2001. If you choose to join the Caucus at this time, your dues would be based on a
nine-month period (October 2001 to June 2002), but you would start receiving support form the Caucus
immediately. Should new members join the Caucus, adjustments will be made.
Please fax or mail the attached form to McKeever/Morris if you are interested in participating in the Growth
Management Caucus.
We believe this organization is important and encourage you to participate.

RE: Council Agenda Item Removal
DATE: May 8, 2001
Originally the Aquifer Storage and Recovery project was placed on the agenda for the
Council meeting on May 8, 2001, and we are requesting to remove this item from the
agenda.
We have received a final draft of the executive summary which reflects some increased
project estimates that are different than what was originally presented to the
Intergovernmental Water Board at their April meeting.
Since I was out of the office last week, staff has not had sufficient time to review the
new project estimates and after review will be taking these back before the IWB on May
23`d and then place them on a Council agenda in June.
I apologize for making the last minute change to the agenda for tonight's meeting.
Thanks!

RE: Sponsorship Assistance for Tigard High School Graduation
Dear Cathy,
On behalf of Tigard High School, 1 am requesti ng the assistance of the City of Tigard in sponsoring
the high school graduation. As you know this event is scheduled for Friday, June 8, 2001
beginning at 7:30 p.m., and will be held on the grounds of Tigard High School- The particular area
of concern is the fireworks display that the seniors have planned. The insurance carrier for the
District has refused to endorse this activity onto the District's policy unless a premium payment of
$10,000 is made. Obviously, this is beyond the financial means of the Tigard Senior Class, as well
as the District.
We understand that the City of Tigard has the ability to endorse onto their insurance policy one-
time events such as the planned fireworks display. Our desire is that the City assist the District by
providing coverage for the licensed pyrotechnician. Tom Bryan has told me that the Fire Marshal
needs a certificate of coverage in order to permit the display. Naturally, the District will be
responsible for the premium charged for this endorsement. Should the cost of placing this
insurance rider exceed $250, please notify me 0efore ordering this coverage.
Thank you for your assistance in solving this problem. if you have any questions, please contact
my. assistant, Cathy Ohm or me at 431-4002.

COUNCIL AGENDA STATEMENT
Meeting Date April 23, 2001 Agenda Item No.
0002
Itern Title DISCUSSION OF PROPOSED ORDINANCE PREPARED BY TOBACCO-FREE
COALITION OF WASHINGTON COUNTY. .
Pre gEgd b Brenda Braden, City Attorney- Department Legal Services
Explanation At the request of the Tobacco-Free Coal io^ of V1iachinatR]n County, Councilor
Bergstrom asked staff to place the Coalition's proposed ordinance regarding tobacco usage on the
agenda for discussion. The proposed ordinance contains the following important provisions:
1. Smoking would be prohibited in all public places within the City, including restaurants, and
common use areas such as lobbies.
2. Smoking would be prohibited in work places and employers would be required to maintain a
written smoking policy. However, employers would not be required to spend money to make
physical or structural alterations to their facilities.
3. Smoking could not occur within 10 feet of an entrance of an enclosed area where smoking is
prohibited.
4. Bars where minors are prohibited at all times, private residences that are not used as a daycare
or healthcare facility and rented hotel/motel rooms are not subject to the smoking restrictions.
5. It prohibits the sale of tobacco products by self-service machines except machines regulated by
Oregon state law or where minors are prohibited on the premises.
6. It prohibits a person from selling tobacco in any form to a minor,
7. It prohibits advertising tobacco products closer than 36 inches from the floor,
8. Violations would be infractions with fines up to $500, and would be heard by the Municipal Court.
Special Issues If Council decides an ordinance should be brought forward, the proposed ordinance
would be redrafted into the City's format and style.
Financial Statement There would be the cost of enforcing the ordinance if it is passed, : the
present time we would anticipate enforcement on a complaint basis, rather than actively seeking
violations. Account No.
Recommendation Consider the proposed ordinance. Council may adopt the ordinance as written
(subject to redrafting for format changes): modify portions of the ordinance or take no action on the
proposed ordinance (effectively rejecting it.) Discussed `?Ad

Paperless Council packet; Executive Session Documents
ISSUES
What issues are involved in moving to a primarily Paperless Counci 1 packet?
2. Flow should the City Council treat documents it reviews in executive session?
ANSWERS
1. The City must make its electronic records available to the public on the same basis that it makes
paper records available. Electronic records are also subject to the same records retention
requirement as paper records. The public records and record retention rules also apply to any
communication or notes relating to an agenda.
2. Any document that is exempt from disclosure as a public record may be kept confidential during
executive session. Although public meeting law gives media personnel the right to be present
during executive session, disclosure ofdocuments is governed by different rules. Documents that
the City has a right to keep confidential should remain confidential and not be disclosed to media
representatives who are present during the executive session.

ANALYSIS
1. Electronic Agen eg
Public records law and applicable records retention rules treat documents' that are maintained in
electronic form the same way that paper documents are treated, If the City decides to publish its agendas
and supporting Council packet documents primarily in electronic form, they are subject to the same
retention rules as paper documents. These documents will be subject to disclosure and must be retained
for the requisite period. For council packets, the city must retain at least one copy or version permanently
in some form. OAR 166-200-0005(13) and (14). The City may choose whether to keep an electronic
version or a paper (or microfilm or other) version as its permanent record.
The City should be aware that any notes on an agenda, or other supporting packet material,
whether electronic or otherwise, may also constitute a meeting record which must be maintained for at
least 5 years. OAR 166.200-0005(13) and (14). All writings by council members that relate to any city
business or activity should be provided to the City (a copy is acceptable) for retention as a City record.
This includes calendars, diaries, notebooks and any other item that contains a reference to City business,
activity or meetings.
2. Emy(jve Session Dopu!-^-^--^-!_
Media representatives have a right to be present during executive sessions. ORS 192.660(3).
Often during executive sessions, the Council will consider memoranda from the City Attorney or other
documents that are confidential, privileged, and/or exempt from disclosure under the public records law.
These documents are not obtainable by the media, even if they are present at the executive session. ORS
192.660 only gives a media representative the right to be present during an executive session. However,
nothing in ORS 192.660 gives the media representative the right to read any document considered during
executive session. Therefore, if a document is not exempt from disclosure under ORS 192.501 or
192.502, the City Council or other body does not have to make it available to a media representative who
is at the executive session. Furthermore, the document may continue to remain exempt from disclosure
even if it is discussed at executive session.
If a privileged or otherwise exempt document is to be discussed at executive session, it should
be provided only to council members and to other City officials and staff. An exempt document should
not be made available to the public, whether by including in an electronic agenda or by any other means,
'The term "document" is used in its broadest sense as anything that has any type of writing
(letters, numbers, characters, pictographs, etc.) on it.

but should be separately provided to those who are entitled to review it. All confidential and exempt
documents provided for a council meeting should be clearly identified as confidential. Any distribution
or transmission should be by secure means to ensure that the document is not made available to the
public, In making electronic packets available to Council members, care should be taken to ensure
executive session material is not distributed beyond the Council and those staff who are authorized to
have it. One option is to put executive session material on a separate CD from that containing general
packet material, Even inadvertent disclosure can result in the loss of confidentiality or exemption from
disclosure.

I:\ADM\CITY COUNCIMEMBERSHIPS.DOC
The Westside Economic Alliance is focused on the
needs of the Westside of the Portland, Oregon
metropolitan region, including Washington County
and the cities of Beaverton, Cornelius, Durham, Forest
Grove, Hillsboro, King City, Sherwood, Tigard,
Tualatin and Wilsonville.
The Alliance's primary purpose is to create an
environment conducive to business and personal
growth. Acting as the voice for members on issues
uniquely affecting the Westside, we strive to promote
and enhance the image and visibility of the area as an
economic development locale. The Westside Economic
Alliance is a proactive organization working to
confront and influence decisions on policies and
regulations impacting the economic vitality of the
area.
A History of Success
In the mid 1950's the Westside began its transition
from a bedroom community to one with an industrial
job base as well. During this transition challenges
emerged. In the early 1980's community leaders came
together to realize a vision. Through their collective
knowledge and hard work, the Westside became an
economic success story - a place where people desire
to live and work, where the quality of life is equal to
none.

The project budget is estimated at $110,000. The consortium submitted a proposal to the
Regional Investment Board (distributes lottery dollars) for $50,000, which was approved
for funding. We need to raise the matching dollars of $40,000 immediately. (The
remaining $20,000 is in-kind contributions from Washington County and the Alliance.)
The Study Team has commitments of $12,000 and must raise the remaining dollars by
April 30. We are seeking contributions of $5,000 or $2,500. Please let us know if you
can participate in this extremely important study for the Westside. Contributions of
$1,000 or $500 are also welcome.
A Study Team member will be contacting you within the next ten days to discuss your
firm's participation. Thank you for considering this request. Please call the Alliance
office if you have any questions.

FROM: Rob Drake, Mayor of Beaverton
. Administration
RE: Growth Management Caucus
The Growth Management Caucus supports 18 cities, counties and special districts in the region by
keeping us informed and assisting with the growth management related activities in the region. Their
good working relationship with Metro staff and their advance staff work has helped MPAC members
efficiently stay on top of things and focus our energies on the most significant issues. With their
assistance, we have worked with Metro to constructively resolve conflicts before they become potentially
controversial issues. Staff has also worked with Caucus members having different points of view to help
members within the local government family come to consensus on issues of mutual interest.
We encourage you to join this organization and benefit from this collective staff work.
Both FOCUS and now the Growth Management Caucus has demonstrated that collective thinking and
sometimes action can produce tangible results. During the past year, the efforts of the Caucus have
impacted a number of issues, including:
ti( Initiation of MPAC's discussion on subregional analysis;
Goal 5 Vision Statement and Metro's legal_authority;
Metro's periodic review process and tasks; and
Long range regional growth management, including issues related to the preservation of farm and
forest land.
Regional issues discussed at Metro will continue to be of importance to local governments in the next
year. With the Court of Appeals decision remanding the Rosemont UGB expansion decision back to
Metro, Metro's land need must be recalculated. In addition, Metro's periodic review process will continue
through 2002 and the analysis and decisions made during this time will have lasting impacts on the region.
Other issues, such as Goal 5, the Endangered Species Act and Measure 7, continue to be unresolved and
will also impact how and where local governments provide services.
For the next year, as Metro continues to study the region's land need and location of future UGB
expansion, many more issues will be analyzed that have significant impact on local governments as
service providers. Among those critical issues are:
• Resolution of the Recent Court of Appeals Decision on the Rosemont Property UGB
Decision. How will Metro accommodate the need now unmet with the remand of the decision
to bring the Rosemont property into the UGB?
• Subregional Need. Should Metro look at the impacts of Region 2040 on a regional scale
and/or smaller parts of the region?
• Periodic Review. Will periodic review show a land need? Can that be accommodated
through upzoning of the land inside the UGB or will it require a UGB expansion?
• Urban Growth Boundary Expansion. if a need is justified, which lands should be added to
the UGB in 2002?
• Funding for Local Implementation of Region 2040, the UGM Functional Plan and
Regional Framework Plan: Are there regional options available to help finance badly needed
infrastructure and Metro required planning?
• Goal 14. Will LCDC adopt the proposed amendments to Goal 14 and how will that impact
the Metro region and decisions for UGB expansion?
The opportunity provided by the Caucus allows us to share ideas and experience outside the Metro
process, and enables us to better interpret the information provided by Metro and actions occurring by
interest groups in the region. This informal communication has resulted in revisions that were of significant
benefit to local governments and might have gone through unnoticed, creating implementation roadblocks,
if not for the Caucus. The staff work provided by McKeever/Morris, a division of Parsons Brinckerhoff, has
helped us make the best use of our staff resources. Their assistance will be even more critical next year
as Metro continues its periodic review process.
Last July, Growth Management Caucus members approved a budget of $74,700 for the year. There is
approximately $30,000 remaining in the budget, which will allow services to continue through the end of
September. In anticipation of the local government budget cycle, we asked McKeever/Morris to prepare a
budget for the next fiscal year. Because the existing budget can support services through September, a
budget has been prepared for nine months of service (September 2001 through June 2002) rather than
the 12-month cycle that we have had in the past. This results in a budget reduction of approximately 40
percent for all local governments. A summary of the work scope is attached for your review.
Fee allocation for the Growth Management Caucus is based on a base fee that apportions the costs of
operation on each jurisdiction's population. An enclosed chart lists the individual membership fees. As a
result of expenses being less than anticipated this year, the current funding will support the Caucus
through September 2001. If you choose to join the Caucus at this time, your dues would be based on a
nine-month period (October 2001 to June 2002), but you would start receiving support form the Caucus
immediately. Should new members join the Caucus, adjustments will be made.
Please fax or mail the attached form to McKeever/Morris if you are interested in participating in the Growth
Management Caucus.
We believe this organization is important and encourage you to participate.

The National League of Cities (NLC) is the country's largest and most representative organization
serving municipal governments. Founded in 1924 as the American Municipal Association by ten state
municipal leagues, today its direct members include 49 state municipal leagues and more than 1,500
communities of all sizes. Through the membership of the state municipal leagues, NLC represents
more than 18,000 municipalities.
Although most of the nation's larger municipalities are members of the league, more than 75% of
NLC's direct members have populations less than 50,000, and small cities, towns and villages play an
equal and key part in the activities of the organization.
In its activities, NLC encourages full participation by the entire city leadership team, not just one or
two top officials. Through NLC, mayors and city councilmembers join together to establish unified
policy positions, advocate these policies forcefully, and share information that strengthens municipal
government throughout the nation. NLC's diverse membership is one of its greatest strengths, and the
organization's non-partisan structure takes full advantage of the broad base the membership provides.
Acting on behalf of local governments, NLC's goals include influencing national policy and building
understanding and support for cities and towns. Through a wide range of programs and services, NLC
assists local leaders in their jobs as policymakers and public servants.

ll c,, h,t Re,
Dear Mayor:
IG02
Thank you for your community's participation in the National League of Cities (NLC).
Being a inetnber of NLC helps strengthen the voice of local government in Washington,
D.C. Membership also gives you access to numerous resources that can enhance you
and your colleagucs' effectiveness as local leaders.
As you may know, your municipality's NLC membership dues currently are ba.;e-1 on
1990 U.S. Census populations. With the anticipated release of Census 2000 data this
spring, NLC is now preparing to update dues populations for members. While NLC will
not make the population changes effective until the annual membership renewal cycle
beginning in January 2002, we know that you may be budgeting in advance and
wanted to provide an "early alert" to help you plan generally for this expense.
As you can see front the enclosed NLC dues rate schedule, changes front one population
category to the next are not great. The dues population currently in our database for
your municipality is 29,344. Unless you have experienced a large fluctuation in
population, you should not experience a large fluctuation in dues.
After final Census data is released this spring, we will provide specific information
about your municipality's 2002 NLC dues. Experience suggests that 1990 Census
changes were easy to adapt to for the majority of members, and we will work to keep
the Census 2000 changes as simple for you.
If you have any questions, feel free to call Lynu Gertzog or Lorraine Gloster in the NLC
Membership Office at (202) G2G-3190. Again, we appreciate your involvement in the
National League of Cities and look forward to serving you in the future.
Very truly yours,
Donald J. Borut
Fxectttive Director

League of Oregon Cities Goals and Services Page 1 of 5
~`=t ~CL GGl ~G~yl?`~
Leame of OreciOn Cities
The League of Oregon Cities provides a wide range of services to Oregon's cities including:
Setting Policy
Intergovernmental Relation
Legislative Services
Technical Assistance
Conferences and Traininq
Publications
Group Insurance Services
Other League Services
Setting Policy
Goal: To provide a means for all Oregon cities to identify and study common concerns and
problems and propose common actions that solve those problems.
The League has active standing committees that review and recommend both long-range
policy and solutions to current, short-range problems. The standing committees cover the
subjects of:
community development
energy
finance and taxation
o general government
s legal advocacy
m personnel
transportation
e water/wastewater
Membership on these committees is solicited from all cities. Oregon Municipal Policy is the
official, long-range policy of Oregon's cities on everything from libraries to urban growth
Changes to the OMP, which can be suggested by any city, are reviewed and acted on by
the Resolutions Committee at the annual conference. Short-term policy issues are dealt
with by resolutions, also adopted at the annual conference.
Intergovernmental Relations
[top]
Goal: To promote cooperation and coordination among various governmental units; to
monitor the manner in which state and federal agencies implement legislation; to represent
http://www.orlocalgov.org/loc/locinfo/services.htm 4/27/01
League of Oregon Cities Goals and Services Page 2 of S
the interests of cities and their residents in state and federal agency proceedings; to assist
cities in dealing with various agencies.
One of the most important functions of the League is to monitor the activities of, and act as
a liaison with, state and federal agencies. Daily contact with over 30 state agencies and a
host of federal agencies puts the League in a position to protect city interests and propose
changes to various programs when needed.
At the national level, the League and its members are participants in the National League of
Cities. The National Municipal Policy is the long-range policy statement on national
municipal issues. Oregon officials play an active role in the formation and lobbying of that
policy.
[tt]
Legislative Services
Goal. To define legislative issues of common interest to Oregon's cities; to work for the
passage or defeat of legislation affecting cities at both state and federal levels; to actively
involve city officials in legislative affairs.
The League's Legislative Committee includes city officials from every area of the state and
represents the broad range of interests of Oregon's cities. The committee screens
legislative proposals from cities and adopts a legislative "package" prior to each legislative
session. It also reviews legislation proposed by others to determine its effect on cities and
their residents.
The League staff work with legislators and legislative committees during the legislative
session as well as in the interim. They monitor bills and provide legislators and their staffs
with information about city concerns.
During the session, all bills introduced are reviewed by the staff. Those affecting cities are
summarized in a weekly Legislative Bulletin which is mailed to each city. The Bulletin also
includes related articles on the week's events and a hearings schedule for the next week,
which allows city officials to take an active part in the legislative process.
Through the League, cities have worked on the revision and moderation of laws in such
areas as annexation, local budget, elections, employee benefits, and tax relief. As a result
of League legislative activities over the years, cities receive a share of state liquor, highway,
and cigarette tax revenues.
Technical Assistance
[t"]
Goal. To respond to requests for information on city practices and procedures in Oregon
and other states.
The League maintains an extensive library of information on city management theory and
http://www.orlocalgov.org/loc/locinfo/services.htm 4/27/01
League of Oregon Cities Goals and Services
Page 3 of 5
practices. Copies of ordinances adopted by other cities as well as a wide range of practical
"how-to" publications are available. Requests for information on legal questions, sample
ordinances and city policies and practices can be made by calling the League.
Throughout the year, League staff schedule field visits to cities around the state to provide
on-the-spot answers to questions and to become familiar with local issues.
The League offers a City Administrator Recruitment Service (CARS) to assist cities in their
search for a quality city manager or administrator.
The Local Government Personnel Institute(LGPI), which is a joint venture of the League
and the Association of Oregon Counties, provides member cities with information on
employer- employee relations, wage and fringe benefit surveys, safety programs,
affirmative action, and training programs for city staff. A special membership in LGPI is
available for cities desiring more than occasional help with personnel issues. LGPI staff
may be contacted by calling (503) 588-2251.
[to12)
Conferences & Training
Goal: To offer city officials opportunities for acquiring the necessary skills and up-to-date
information to enable them to serve their citizens efficiently and effectively, to provide a
forum in which they can share knowledge and skills to solve common problems.
League Annual Conference a three-day meeting held in November. The broad
program includes general sessions, small workshop and training seminars, as well as
informal opportunities to share information.
. Biennial Regional Meetings held in the spring of non- legislative years. These
meetings help League staff and city officials "keep in touch"with key issues and local
concerns.
Workshops for Elected Officials held throughout the state in the spring of
legislative years. These one-day meetings cover basic governing for elected and
appointed city officials and provide an introduction to newly elected municipal
government officials.
. Affiliate Group Meetings held on an annual basis throughout the year for
associations affiliated with the League: the Oregon Mayors Association; Oregon
Section, International City/County Management Association; Oregon Municipal
Finance Officers Association; Oregon City Attorneys Association; Oregon City
Planning Directors Association; Association of Oregon Redevelopment Agencies; and
Oregon Association of Chiefs of Police.
s Legislative Briefings held in late summer following legislative sessions, these
briefings are designed to summarize the events of the session and inform city officials
of important legislation prior to their effective dates.
Legislative Conference held in Salem during each legislative session, this
conference provides city officials with up-to-date information on critical legislative

HISTORY
Traditions run deep In our community. Settled in the 1 850's by the enterprising spirit of
Wilson and Polly Tigard, the Victorian style Tigard house is now a community historic
landmark.
Arriving by wagon train the Tigards staked out their 320 acre claim near Bull Mountain.
Beginning with a log cabin and later a framed house, Wilson and Polly Tigard's sense of
community began with the construction of the first general store, home of Tigardville's first
telephone. Tigardville shortened its name to Tigard to avoid confusion with other towns as the
railroad made Tigard a regular stop of travelers moving West.
While the Tigard Community is nearing 150 years in age, the city celebrated its 35th year of
incorporation in 1996, making it one of Oregon's younger incorporated communities. As
important as its history, Tigard is a community planning for its future. Local governments,
school leaders, citizens groups, business and individuals work hard to build upon Tigard's
significant community attributes as the city reaches into the 21st century.
COMMUNITY AND CIVIC PRIDE
Civic Pride and a sense of community are evident by the festivals and arts available in Tiqard.

The Tigard Festival of the Balloons held at Cook Park is a Portland Rose Festival sanctioned
event. Imagine the spectacular view of hot air balloons filling the skies on a crisp June
morning. Standing near neighbors and friends enjoying the sight only enhances the sense of
community spirit in Tigard.
Moving into July, folks gather at the Tigard High School stadium late in the day on the 4th to
picnic and enjoy local entertainment in anticipation of the fireworks display that night. This
event is funded by the city and volunteer donation.
Tigard Country Daze on the third weekend in August finishes the summer events beginning
with a parade on Saturday morning. This is truly a family affair with food, music and a local
talent show. Fun for young and old alike.
The Tigard Farmers Market is open every Saturday from June through October. Shop for
locally grown produce, crafts, plants, flowers, baked goods, honey and more.
The Broadway Rose Theater brings a little bit of New York, added with local talent to Tigard.
Matthew Ryan's dream of bringing the arts and theater home has come true with this theater
In collaboration with the Tigard High School, show schedules include classic Broadway
shows as well as theater for children.
PARKS AND RECREATION
Tigard features a wealth of opportunities for activity and recreation including area public and
private golf courses, city parks, outdoor tennis courts, bike and pedestrian paths and Tigard
High School swim center.

Fifty-seven acre Cook park is the largest of 9 city parks. It is located along the banks of the
Tualatin River. Voter approval on park improvement levys has allowed many improvements to
be made at Tigard's city parks. The unique-preservation of havens for waterfowl and wildlife
have been accomplished in parks close to communities of homes and commerce.
Located close to Portland, Tigard offers its residents the best of big city culture and events.
Portland's Forest Park is the largest city park in the United States at 10,000 acres. The area
is also close to Oregon's favorite playgrounds - Scenic Mt. Hood with a variety of ski areas for
novice and expert alike, and the beautiful Oregon Coast. Both are less than a 2 hour drive
from Tigard. The Columbia River Gorge Scenic area is less than 1 hour from Tigard and
offers parks, waterfalls, hiking, biking, wind surfing and a scenic highway to tour this
nationally protected area.
EDUCATION AND SCHOOLS
The Tigard-Tualatin School District serves a 34- square mile area with nine elementary
schools, three middle schools and two high schools. A 1995 bond measure paved the way for
the addition of a new elementary school and improvements at four other schools. Included is
financing to expand computers throughout the school district.
The district totals more than 10,600 students and grows each year in enrollment. The school
offers a high quality education and its students and faculty are recognized each year for their
outstanding achievements. Seniors received approximately one half million dollars in
scholarships in the past year. For high academic achievers, Tigard High School offers a
comprehensive International Baccalaureate Program. Tigard High School also has a strong
alternative program which focuses students on work skills.
The pioneerinq spirit is evident in Tiqard schools too! This vear Tiqard Hiqh School initiated

the School-to-Work Readiness Rating which helps bridge the gap between local business and
students looking for employment. This program allows the school to provide prospective
employers with a rating based on the students attendance and academic record. This
program benefits students in the realization that the school's expectations for promptness and
performance also have value in the workplace.
Tigard is host to a number of private and professional schools and colleges. Please see
directory for listings.
SENIOR LIVING
Tigard is Senior Friendly! The Tigard Senior Center is a bustle of activities with clubs,
classes, music, trips and more. The Center is also rich in civic programs noting that the lunch
program for seniors serves over 40,000- meals annually. Meals on Wheels is also available
to those confined to their homes. A buddy program matches volunteers with home bound
residents for lunch chats on a regular basis.
Tigard is home to several senior communities that offer golf, swimming and club house
activities to their residents. Incorporated King City is a community of more than 2,000
residents that include its own 9 hole golf course, town hall, shopping center, convalescent
center and lawn bowling rink.
HEALTHCARE
Legacy Meridian Park Hospital, a modern full service facility is located just 5 minutes from
Tigard. The Family Birth Center, opened in 1993 and expanded in 1995 to meet the growing
needs of the community.
Legacy Meridian Park Hospital is no stranger to innovation with the introduction of the
Community Health Information Center. Complete with a lending library, video tapes, articles
and a CD ROM information area, the center allows you to access up-to-date health
information.
St. Vincent Hospital is located just North of Tigard and provides some emergency medical
services from medical centers located in Tigard.
DEVELOPMENT POTENTIAL
Since its incorporation in 1961, Tigard has developed rapidly into an urban community with a
strong tax base and diversity of business. The city's 1997-98 tax rate of $2.54 is among the
lowest in the Portland metro area. This low rate is credited to sound fiscal management and a
strong local economic base.
Tigard is a fast growing community. To ensure the growth will be stable, the city adopted a
comprehensive plan in 1983 structured to accommodate the expected 50,000 residents by
the year 2005. City policies, zoning and land use planning encourage commercial and
industrial activity while maintaining the character and livability of new and existing
neighborhoods.
HOUSING
Tigard has a variety of housing styles and price ranges. New single family construction is
taking place in many areas of the city. The average selling price of a house in the Tigard
Tualatin-Wilsonville area is $174,900 in 1995 and $181,800 in June 1996, although the range
is quite substantial.
New construction of apartment communities complete with clubhouse and other amenities are
a new addition to Tigard. Large apartment complexes and some condominiums are also
available in a wide range of pricing and rents.

FOR AGENDA OF May 2001
ISSUE/AGENDA TITLE:
CITY OF TIGARD, OREGON
COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY
PREPARED BY: Mathew Scheidegger DEPT HEAD OK
MGR OK
ISSUE BEFORE THE COUNCIL
Should the City Council vacate an approximately 9,544 square foot portion of public right-of-way commonly
known as SW 67th Avenue?
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that Council initiate vacation proceedings by adopting the attached Resolution which sets a
formal public hearing date on the vacation for June 26, 2001.
INFORMATION SUMMARY
In the City vacation process of streets, easements and other public dedicated areas, the City Council begins the
process by passing a Resolution to schedule a formal public hearing to consider such requests.
Root Holdings, LLC, is requesting that the City Council initiate vacation proceedings for a portion of SW 67th
Avenue at SW Clinton Street. This will create an "eyebrow" on the south side of the SW 67th Avenue and SW
Clinton Street intersection. The intent is to provide a second access and provide circulation around the proposed
"Bradford Place office building. In addition, the vacated area will provide for placement of a portion of their
storm water quality detention pond, as it is the lowest portion of the site.
Appropriate agencies shall be contacted for their comments prior to developing a report for the Council public
hearing.

Re: Requested Street Vacation:
Map IS 136DD - The unimproved area of SW 67L" Avenue, extending south of
Clinton Street between TL 7700 and TL's 5300 and 6000.
Dear Members of the Council:
This is to notify you of our intent to request a vacation of the above identified portion of
SW 67"' Avenue. This notice is as a result of an informal meeting with Jim Hendryx and
a subsequent pre-application conference with City Staff on February 6, 2001, regarding a
proposed Class "A" office building, "Bradford Place" to be developed on tax lots 7700
and 4100, and '/2 of the requested street vacation.
In my meeting with Jim Hendryx, he stated that it is the City of Tigard's policy not to
vacate streets in the Tigard Triangle, maintaining it's existing street grid pattern, with one
notable exception; this section of 67'h avenue. This section of 67'h, which lies to the south
of Clinton and to the north of the Haines Road southbound off ramp, is a portion of the
right of way which has never been improved and "leads to no where", as it dead ends into
the off ramp.
It is our intention to use a portion of this proposed vacation of right of way to create an
"eyebrow" on the south side of the 67 h and Clinton intersection, a second access to the
building site which provides circulation around the proposed office building, and for
placement of a portion of our storm water quality detention pond, as it is the lowest
portion of the site.
We will be improving the street frontage and making the appropriate modifications to all
necessary utilities along tax lots 7700, 4100 and'/z of the proposed street vacation. No
utilities are effected by the proposed street vacation, as it is an unimproved portion of 67`h
Avenue.

ISSUE/AGENDA TITLE Aquifer Storage and Recovery (ASR) Feasibility Study Progress Report
PREPARED BY: Richard C. Sattler DEPT HEAD OK CITY MGR OK
ISSUE BEFORE THE COUNCIL
Staff and Montgomery Watson (consultant) will give an update of a Feasibility Study for Aquifer Storage and
Recovery.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommendation is to accept Montgomery Watson's report, Phase I of Aquifer Storage and Recovery
Feasibility Study, and recommend acceptance to the IWB, continue to proceed with the recommendation given by
the report, ie. construction of a new well, and placing existing well #1 into a monitoring well, etc.
INFORMATION SUMMARY
Aquifer Storage and Recovery (ASR) is the process of injecting water during winter into the underground aquifer
creating a large "reservoir" which we would then extract during the peak season to supplement our existing supply
capacity. Feasibility Study, phase I of Aquifer Storage and Recovery is:
■ Determine how ASR fits into the City of Tigard's water supply plan
■ Evaluate City's wells for ASR
■ Characterize hydrogeology of aquifer
■ Evaluate water quality compatibility
■ Research permitting issues
With ASR we will be able to supplement other sources, assist with summer peaking with full implementation by
2005 with production beginning 2002. No fatal flaws were found in phase I of the ASR project.
OTHER ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED
Aquifer Storage and Recovery (ASR) is a short term solution to offset summer peaking.
VISION TASK FORCE GOAL AND ACTION COMMITTEE STRATEGY
"Exploring local options for water reuse and groundwater source" is a goal of the Vision task Force and the Action
Committee Strategy to "Develop a feasibility report of Aquifer Storage and Recovery for the water service area".

Section 5
Next Steps - Phase II and Phase III
PHASE II PILOT TEST PLAN
Objectives
Pilot testing will be accomplished under the terms of a Limited License for ASR. The
goals of the Pilot Test Plan are to determine the percent recovery of stored water, the
potential of recovered water to meet water quality standards and the ultimate capacity of
the aquifer.
Limited License Application
This section describes the requirements of the Oregon Water Resources Department
(WRD) for obtaining a Limited License, which is required to conduct an ASR pilot test.
These requirements are specified in OAR 690-350 Aquifer Storage and Recovery (ASR)
and Artificial Groundwater Recharge, in Section 0020 "ASR Testing Under Limited
License".
Pilot testing under the terms of a limited license is addressed in Section (1):
(1) Testing Purposes. To store and use water injected into an aquifer for aquifer
storage and recovery testing purposes requires a limited license. Only after
completion of an ASR testing program under a limited license may an applicant
apply for a permanent ASR permit. The testing approach shall be designed to
provide information as needed to evaluate the ultimate capacity anticipated for
the project. The limited license may allow for a beneficial use(s) of the recovered
water.
A pre-application conference is required prior to application for a limited license:
(2) Pre-application Conference. The Department requires at least one pre-
application conference with a prospective licensee prior to filing an application
requesting the right to use water under a limited license for ASR testing. The
purpose of the conference is to describe and discuss the processes and
requirements which the Department associates with water storage and recovery
in the ASR Program. The conference may serve as a point of review for the
apparent adequacy of the applicant's hydrogeologic and other information. The
Department shall invite personnel from both the DEQ and HD to the conference.
The proposed ASR testing program is addressed in Section (3) (b) (A) as follows:
CITY OF TIGARD
DRAFT PHASE I - ASR FEASIBILITY STUDY
APRIL 2001 Page 5-1
Proposed ASR Test Program. The proposed testing program shall include
injection rates and schedules, water storage volumes, the injected water storage
durations, recovery rates and schedule, water quality sampling including a quality
assurance and quality control plan, water level monitoring including location of
observation wells, contingency plan for use of recovered water if the intended
use not possible, information on the anticipated final project (scope and
conceptual design), and testing report outline. (A licensed professional will be
required to develop this information as required by Oregon Law)
The proposed system design is addressed in Section (3) (b) (B):
(8) Proposed System Design. The proposed system design package shall
include well construction information for any injection, recovery, observation and
source wells, the wellhead assembly, piping system for injection and recovery,
and other conceptual design components of the system. (A licensed professional
will be required to develop this information as required by Oregon Law).
Groundwater information requirements are addresses in Section (3) (b) (C):
(C) Groundwater Information. Preliminary hydrogeologic information shall include
the local geology, a conceptual hydrogeologic model, a description of the aquifer
targeted for storage, estimated flow direction and rate of movement, allocation of
surface water, springs or wells within the area affected by ASR wells, rationale
for estimating the affected area, anticipated changes to the groundwater system
due to the proposed ASR testing, potential natural resource problems of testing,
and other information on groundwater and surface water conditions antecedent
to ASR for basing recovery estimations. (A licensed professional will be required
to develop this information as required by Oregon law. (ORS 672.505-705))
The source water quality is addressed in Section (3) (b) (D) as follows:
(D) Quality of Source Water. The applicant shall provide information regarding
the quality and treatment of the proposed injection source water relevant to the
proposed injection time of year for:
(i) Regulated constituents with maximum contaminant levels under OAR 333-
061-0030 (test results from a laboratory approved by the HD (OAR 333-061-
0036));
(ii) Unregulated constituents under OAR 333-061-0036 (test results from a
laboratory approved by the HD (OAR 333-061-0036));
(iii) Constituents with maximum measurable levels established under OAR 340-
040 (ORS 4688.165) (test results from a laboratory approved by the HD (OAR
333-061-0036));
CITY OF TIGARD
DRAFT PHASE I - ASR FEASIBILITY STUDY

(iv) Compliance with treatment requirements and performance standards for
source waters that fall in categories identified in OAR 333-061-0032;
(v) Common ion constituents and water quality parameters to include: alkalinity
or bicarbonate, calcium, magnesium, iron, manganese, sodium, potassium,
chloride, sulfate, silica, total dissolved solids, pH, redox potential and
temperature;
(vi) Other constituents as required by the Department.
Additional information on the source water quality, including compliance with
applicable water quality standards, is addressed in Section (3) (b) (E):
(E) Comments on Source Water/Standards. The applicant shall address the
following situations as they apply.
(i) If a constituent that is regulated under OAR 333-061-0030 (ORS 448.131 and
448.273) or OAR 340-040 (ORS 4688.165) is detected in the source water, the
applicant shall demonstrate that there are not other sources of water available to
the applicant which would be satisfactory for injection and lower in the constituent
of concern;
(ii) If a constituent is detected in the source water above 50% of the levels
established under OAR 333-061-0030 (ORS 448.131 and 448.273) or OAR 340-
040 (ORS 468B. 165), the applicant shall install a treatment method, system or
other alternative method to reduce the constituent to less than 50% of those
levels, unless the applicant can show that there is not a treatment method,
system or other alternative method that will reduce the level of a contaminant
below the 50% level, or the lesser of.•
(l) The applicant can show that it would be more costly to provide the treatment
method, system or other alternative method necessary than to obtain the same
amount of stored water from the next cheapest feasible water supply alternative;
or
(ll) In the case of a drinking water system the applicant can show the cost of
adding the treatment method, system or other alternative method increases the
cost per household of providing water (including operation, maintenance, and
debt service for prior water projects) above 1.5% of the median household
income of the community.
(iii) Notwithstanding paragraph (3)(b)(E)(ii) of this rule, in the event the applicant
cannot reduce a constituent to less than the 50% level, the applicant shall
minimize the constituent level by providing the level of treatment available or
other alternative method which for the same amount of stored water is not as
CITY OF TIGARD
DRAFT PHASE I - ASR FEASIBILITY STUDY
APRIL 2001 Page 5-3
costly as either the next cheapest water supply alternative or an amount equal to
that necessary to increase the cost per household of providing water to 1.5% of
the median household income of the community, whichever is less;
(iv) Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs (3)(b)(E)(i), (ii) and (iii) of this
rule and after consulting with the DEQ and the HD, the Department may
determine that the circumstances are such that an alternative source, treatment
method, system, or other alternative method is acceptable or not necessary.
The quality of the receiving water (native groundwater quality) is addressed in
Section (3) (b) (F) as follows:
(F) Quality of Receiving Aquifer Water. The applicant shall provide information
regarding the quality of the receiving aquifer water for.
(i) Regulated constituents with maximum contaminant levels under OAR 333-
061-0030 (test results from a laboratory approved by the HD (OAR 333-061-
0036));
(ii) Unregulated constituents under OAR 333-061-0036 (test results from a
laboratory approved by the HD (OAR 333-061-0036));
(iii) Constituents with maximum measurable levels established under OAR 340-
040 (ORS 4688.165) (test results from a laboratory approved by the HD (OAR
333-061-0036));
(iv) Common ion constituents and water quality parameters to include: alkalinity
or bicarbonate, calcium, magnesium, iron, manganese, sodium, potassium,
chloride, sulfate, silica, total dissolved solids, pH, redox potential and
temperature;
(v) Other constituents as required by the Department.
The compatibility of the recharge source water and receiving aquifer water is
addressed in Section (3) (b) (G) as follows:
(G) Comments on Compatibility. The applicant shall evaluate the compatibility of
the injection source water and receiving aquifer water for possible changes in
aquifer characteristics due to hydrogeologic or hydrogeochemical changes.
Water Rights
Since the City does not hold any surface water rights to any of three potential sources, a
water right holder agreement will be needed from the appropriate water provider(s) as
part of the ASR permit application. The agreement must indicate permission for use of
CITY OF TIGARD
DRAFT PHASE I - ASR FEASIBILITY STUDY Page 5-4
APRIL 2001
the water for ASR testing. Early contact with potential source water providers will be
required to facilitate this permitting process.
Monitoring
Close coordination with the Oregon Health Department will be required to ensure that all
water quality standards are being met. Additional or increased frequency of water
quality monitoring may be required during the Pilot Test and initial ASR operation.
Once the City has demonstrated that the withdrawn water meets all drinking water
standards, the OHD may reduce these monitoring requirements.
Schedule
The anticipated schedule for the injection phases of cycle testing would occur during the
winter of 2001/2002. This is ideal from the perspective of availability of source water for
injection. Surplus water is available during these months and can be utilized for the
Pilot Test.
Assuming there are no delays in the Pilot Test, initial delivery of ASR water to
customers would occur in the summer of 2002. The period for the Limited License will
be at least two years and is recommended to be the five year maximum to allow
operation of the ASR system by the summer of 2002 regardless of the status of ongoing
ASR permitting. While the ASR system is operating and serving water under the terms
of the Limited License, the long-term ASR permit can be obtained.
Agency Review
once a completed application for a Limited License is received by Oregon Water
Resources Department (WRD) almost five months must be allowed for in the schedule.
By rule, WRD has 45 days to consult with the Health Division and Department of
Environmental Quality about the completeness of the application. It then has 7 days to
provide public notice of the request for the License. A 30 day public comment period
follows posting of the public notice. WRD then has 60 days within which to prepare a
final order with conditions on the License. The public notice period is expanded to 60
days, and upon issuance of the final order with the permit, there is a 45-day protest
period within which anyone objecting to the permit may file. Even prior to issuing a final
order, the application can be sent to the Water Resources Commission for review.
While no protests or significant policy concerns requiring Commission attention are
anticipated on the application, it is not possible to assume that none will materialize.
Cost Estimate
Based on findings from the Feasibility Study, estimated costs were prepared for the
Pilot Phase. Costs include the conversion of Well No. 1 to a monitoring well, drilling of a
new well on the same site and associated piping, equipment and housing costs. Table
5.1 lists the costs included in Phase II - Pilot Test.

The following assumptions were made in developing the Phase II costs:
o The new well can be drilled on the Well No. 1 site.
o The transmission line from the new well will be connected to the existing piping in
the reservoir yard.
o The distance from the wellhead to the transmission line is 50 feet.
o The pump was sized for ASR injection and withdrawal rates
o No additional water treatment will be necessary beyond the chlorination system
currently in place.
o Does not include costs for groundwater modeling
PHASE III - FULL SCALE IMPLEMENTATION
ASR Permit
Based on the results of Pilot testing, a permit application from WRD for full-scale
operation will be prepared. It is assumed that this application will be submitted while the
ASR system is operated under the terms of the Limited License. A formal
CITY OF TIGARD
DRAFT PHASE I - ASR FEASIBILITY STUDY
APRIL 2001 Page 5-6
preapplication conference will be held with WRD to review application requirements as
required under WRD rules. The application will contain all information required under
OAR 690-350-030. These requirements are similar to those for the Limited License
Application.
Integration with Existing System
Based on the City's desire to utilize ASR as a constant source supply, ASR can be
developed with minor modifications to its existing distribution system. Dedicated ASR
wells will require connection to the system.
Well Locations and Capacities
Feasibility Study investigations indicate that a minimum of 10 wells will be needed in
order to achieve the 4-6 mgd ASR production. Three of the City's four wells could
potentially be used for long-term ASR. These wells include Well No. 1, 2 and 3. Well
No. 4 was ruled out due to poor ASR production capacity, inaccessibility to repair or
replace the pump and uncertainties whether the City will sell this property. The existing
wells can be equipped with larger pumps thus allowing greater injection and withdrawal
rates. Additional monitoring wells will also be needed.
Recharge Water
Similar to the Pilot Test, multiple source waters from the City's suppliers could be used
for ASR. Because the City does not hold any water rights to these sources, a water
right agreement will be required. Water used for ASR recharge may come from one or
more of the following surface water sources available to the City:
Clackamas River via Lake Oswego (or South Fork Water Board),
s Bull Run River via the City of Portland; or
Trask-Tualatin River via the Joint Water Commission.
This situation could change in the future as long-term supply decisions are solidified.
Monitoring
Increased water quality monitoring or frequency of monitoring may be required to
account for water injected and withdrawn from the aquifer. This will be determined once
Phase II is complete.
Schedule for Implementation
Once the initial Pilot testing is complete and the Pilot Test Report is written, application
for the ASR permit can be made. Assuming there are no delays in the Pilot Test,
application could be made as early as the fall of 2002.

Agency Review
Once received by WRD, the agency has 45 days to review the application for
completeness. DEQ and the OHD are provided opportunity to review the application.
Once deemed complete, WRD will notify the City that the application is complete.
Within 7 days of this notification, a public notice is released by WRD commencing a 60-
day comment period. After this 60 day comment period, the WRD will issue a proposed
final order on the application. The City will be notified of the final order. Certain
conditions may be placed on the ASR permit including the maximum allowable injection
rate, storage volume and duration and the maximum allowable recovery rate
Cost Estimate for Full Scale System
Cost estimates for Full Scale ASR development and implementation are listed in Table
5.2. Cost estimates for full-scale implementation were calculated based on the
following assumptions:
Ultimate ASR production is 4-6 mgd -a total of 10 wells.
e 3 of the City's existing wells can be used for ASR development
0 7 new wells will be needed to meet storage capacity requirements and production

Conclusions and Recommendations
CONCLUSIONS
The City wishes to utilize ASR for both short-term and long-term needs utilizing its
existing wells and water supplies. The Feasibility Study sought to investigate the
potential of ASR of these requirements. An evaluation of the City's wells indicate that
Well No. 1 is most suitable for use as an ASR pilot test well. Hydrogeologicai
investigations were conducted at Well No.1 to characterize the aquifer and groundwater
quality. These initial investigations revealed the following about the aquifer in the
vicinity of Well No. 1:
• The available data indicates that there is sufficient storage capacity within the
unconfined basalt beneath Bull Mountain to enable development of an ASR scheme
that is capable of producing up to 6 mgd for periods of up to 8 months;
• Based on the available well testing data, construction and operation of 1000 gpm
(Bull Mountain basalt) injection wells is feasible;
• Assuming a 4 month injection period, 2 such wells would be required to enable
development of a 1 mgd to 1.5 mgd scheme capable of being used to provide a
peaking supply for periods of up to 5 months;
• To enable the development of a 6 mgd scheme capable of being used for up to 8
months, up to 10 such wells would be required;
• It is likely that the recovery of the injected water could be achieved using fewer wells
than are required for the injection;
• There is expected to be no adverse water quality impacts associated with injection of
treated surface waters into the basalt;
• Potential impacts associated with the development of an ASR scheme are likely to
include a water level rise in other basalt wells on Bull Mountain. Other potential
impacts may include an increase in spring discharge on the slopes of Bull Mountain.
• The effects of large scale water level changes (increases and decreases) on
individual well performance require additional monitoring of water levels.
• If additional monitoring of water levels show little change in the draw-down,
alternative methods may be imposed as part of the permit conditions required to
account for the withdrawn water.
In summary, the results of the Feasibility Study indicate there are no fatal flaws for ASR
development in the City of Tigard. It should be recognized, however, that the
assessment is subject to some uncertainty. At this time, the boundaries of the aquifer
are unknown and require further study to determine the drawdown. The resolution of
the significance of the uncertainty is recommended to confirm storage volumes,
injection and recovery rates, groundwater level changes and effects on springs and
streams.

Conclusions and Recommendations
RECOMMENDATIONS
To resolve some of the current uncertainty with respect to aquifer and well performance
within the Bull Mountain area, the following is recommended:
• Before Well's 1 and 2 are used this summer, the well-heads should be modified to
enable a water level meter to be used to monitor the water levels in the two wells;
• In the period prior to the use of the wells, water levels in all of the City's wells should
be monitored on a weekly basis;
• Arrangements to access the Tigard High School and James Templeton Elementary
School wells should be put into place prior to the use of the wells;
• Consultant should be notified prior to the use of the wells so that Golder staff can be
in attendance at the start up of the pumps to record (valuable) early time test data;
• During the subsequent period that the wells are used, water level measurements
should be taken in both the City's wells and adjacent observation wells and the
production totals should be noted. As far as possible measurements should be
taken daily throughout the summer;
• At this stage it appears feasible to develop an ASR scheme using the Bull Mountain
basalt, as such the City should proceed with the development and implementation of
a pilot test plan;
• In view of the poor condition of Well 1 casing, a new test well should be constructed
at the Canterbury Lane site and the existing well should be converted to a multi-level
monitoring well for pilot testing.
• Once additional monitoring is complete, the City should confirm how ASR fits in its
water supply strategy and identify its role in both short-term and long-term planning.
At this time, the City should proceed with the level of ASR that is commensurate with
its needs.

CITY OF TIGARD, OREGON
COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY
ISSUE/AGENDA TITLE Zone Ordinance Amendment to Allow Recreation as a Conditional Use within all
Industrial Zoning Districts
PREPARED BY: Duane Roberts DEPT HEAD OK 2AdA~WITY MGR OK U441V111
Should the City amend the Community Development Code to allow outdoor recreational uses within the industrial
zoning districts?
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Approve the proposed ordinance amendment, as recommended by Planning Commission.
INFORMATION SUMMARY
The Tigard Community Development Code currently prohibits Community Recreation within all the industrial
zoning districts. The proposed, City-initiated amendment would allow outdoor recreation as a Conditional Use
within these districts under certain circumstances. These circumstances include (1.) land classified as floodplain
when the recreational use does not preclude the future industrial development of adjacent upland and (2.) upland
areas when the recreational use is temporary and the land is available for conversion to industrial use as market
conditions dictate.
The effect of adopting the amendment would be to make additional land available for recreational uses without
interfering with the supply of land designated for industrial development and without adversely affecting the City's
ability to meet the job target capacities set by Metro, which are based on vacant land and redevelopment and infill
opportunities. Allowing recreation on the limited basis proposed by the amendment would contribute to an
improved quality of life and, correlatively, to an improved business climate within the City.
On April 16th, the Planning Commission conducted a hearing on the proposed amendment. At the conclusion of
the hearing, the Commission voted unanimously to recommend to Council that the amendment be approved. The
recommendation included the qualification that parking standards be developed as a companion to the proposed
amendment. The current code contains no parking standards for outdoor recreation.
The portion of the Planning Commission recommendation pertaining to parking is worded as follows:
"Recommend the City Council adopt appropriate parking standards for the temporary use to include allowing
unpaved parking and to focus the required parking dependent upon existing available parking."
In response to the Planning Commission's recommendation regarding parking requirements, staff called several
cities statewide to obtain information on and compare parking standards pertaining to outdoor recreation. Among
the ten cities contacted, none currently has in its code specifically defined parking standards for outdoor recreation
uses.
In the case of neighborhood-level parks, the reason for this would appear to be related to the purpose of such parks.
Neighborhood parks typically are designated to provide neighborhood social, recreational and fitness activities.
They generally are located in the interior of residential areas. The major methods of travel to these sites are
walking and bicycle riding. As such, there appears to be no need for park providers to establish parking standards
for neighborhood parks. For the same reason, staff recommends Council not consider parking standards for City
neighborhood parks.
The same is not true of community and regional scale parks. These parks serve as a focus for the community's
recreational and social needs and activities. They are bigger and provide a larger number of facilities and activities
and therefore attract a high number of users who travel by car. However, because parking standards for large-scale
parks are not well established in community codes and because such parks would not be allowed in industrial areas
under the proposed overlay standards, staff recommends that Council not consider standards for community and
regional scale parks in conjunction with the proposed amendment.
As for Planning Commission's call for standards relative to unpaved and joint use parking, gravel or unpaved
parking already is allowed in the Tigard code under a variance procedure with a showing of special circumstances.
The use of joint parking also is addressed in the existing code, which provides specific approval standards for joint
parking arrangements. Both required on-site and overflow parking requirements can be satisfied through a joint
parking arrangement. Therefore, there appears to be no need, in conjunction with this amendment, to adopt special
standards pertaining to joint use and unpaved parking.
Recreational uses involving dogs were the main focus of the Planning Commission discussion regarding parking.
Dog parks generally tend to attract people from outside the area who travel to the park by car. Given the unique
circumstances associated with dog parks, staff concurs with the comments of some Planning Commissioners
concerning the need for parking standards addressing this specific recreational use. Based on an informal survey of
four cities that operate dog parks, five spaces appears to be the minimum number of stalls needed to accommodate
the weekday parking needs of dog park users.
Therefore, staff recommends the City establish a basic automobile parking requirement of five spaces for a dog
park with a fenced area of one acre or more and three spaces for a dog park of one acre or less. In addition, a
parking plan should be developed to address parking requirements during peak use periods, including evening and
weekends. The parking plan could include shared parking with other uses. Staff further proposes the parking
requirement be added to the Conditional Use chapter of the Community Development Code under
18.330.050B.5.b. as follows:
b. There are no off-street parking requirements, except that five automobile parking spaces are required for
a dog park or off-leash area with a fenced area of one acre or more, along with an approved parking plan for
anticipated peak use periods. Off-site peak use or overspill parking shall require a signed agreement with
the landowner providing the additional parking. Three automobile parking spaces are required for a dog
park or off-leash area with a fenced area of less than one acre, along with an approved parking plan for
anticipated peak use periods. Off- site peak use or overspill parking shall require a signed agreement with
the landowner providing the additional parking."
OTHER ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED
Approve the zone ordinance amendment in the same form as contained in the ZOA application without adding a
parking requirement.
Approve the amendment with the parking requirement developed by staff.
Approve the amendment with a different parking requirement.
Do not approve the proposed amendment allowing recreational uses within industrial areas.
VISION TASK FORCE GOAL AND ACTION COMMITTEE STRATEGY
The amendment is consistent with the spirit of Community Character and Quality of Life Goal # 1, Community
Aesthetics, which calls for the development of a "list of methods for dedication or acquisition of open space", if
broadened to include the use of open space.

18.380, 18.390 and 18.530.
STAFF REPORT
Duane Roberts presented the staff report on behalf of the City. The
proposed amendment would change the code to allow some recreation
under certain conditions. These include 1) when the industrial area is within
the flood plain, and 2) when the use is temporary. The rationale is that
industrial buildings are not allowed within flood plain at present, resulting in
some buffer areas that are suitable for recreation that are not being used.
The purpose of the present prohibition of recreation use in an industrial area
is to protect the limited supply of industrial land. The amendment would
make more land available for recreational uses without interfering with that
goal, as well as improve the quality of life within the community. There have
been no objections to the amendment by any agencies, including Metro and
DLCD, nor by area residents. The Public Works Department and the Dog
Park Task Force have commented in support of the amendment. The
amendment originated through staff and the Dog Park Task Force.
There are two specific parcels being considered. One is a five-acre parcel of
City-owned flood plain on Bonita Road across from a low income housing
project. The Dog Park Task Force has been looking for a suitable place for
a dog park and one impediment has been objections by neighbors to sites
proposed in residential areas. If a dog park could be located within an
industrial area, then there would be no conflict with neighbors over such a
use. A 4-acre site has been identified within an industrial area and the
owner of that parcel has expressed interest for such a use on the site.
With regards to parking, the conditional use section calls for off-street
parking, but it is defined in terms of square footage for a recreational
structure as opposed to number of spaces required. Parking requirements
for outdoor recreational areas are not defined in the code. It is possible to
include language in the amendment providing parking standards for this
conditional use. The recommendation to City Council can provide for
research by staff on what would be appropriate parking standards for this
use. Typically for a neighborhood park, it is assumed that people would
walk to the park. It is designed to serve the community living within a
quarter mile of the park, so there is no parking standard for a neighborhood
park.
Any recreational use within a wetland would have to meet all wetland
requirements. Almost all City parks are located in flood plains and there are
provisions for covered picnic areas, restrooms, etc. Recreational uses are
prohibited in commercial zones and they are not proposing to change that
PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES - April 16, 2001 - Page 2
provision. Including commercial zones for this conditional use would be an
arduous process and no vacant commercial land has been identified as
suitable for this use.
PUBLIC TESTIMONY
Dave Walker, 15245 SW 74th Avenue, Tigard, Oregon, an owner of industrial
land within a flood plain, inquired if the flood plain would be governed by
wetland restrictions. The Commission advised him that this amendment
would not change any existing environmental regulations. Whatever use is
contemplated for an industrial area would have to meet all the existing
environmental requirements.
DISCUSSION
The Commissioners then discussed issues and concerns regarding parking
and use of wetlands. It was generally agreed that the proposal is a good
idea provided that parking standards are addressed.
Commissioner Topp moved to recommend to the City Council to approve
the requested zone ordinance amendment (ZOA) 2000-00005, to allow as
a conditional use community recreational uses within specific overlay
areas of the I-P, I-L and I-H industrial zoning districts, and to adopt
appropriate parking standards for the temporary use to include allowing
unpaved parking and to focus the required parking dependent upon
existing available parking. Commissioner Mores seconded the motion. A
voice vote was taken and the motion passed unanimously.

The Tigard City Council
13125 SW Hall Blvd.
Tigard, OR 97224
Dear Mayor Griffith and Members of the Council:
As a member of the City of Tigard Dog Park Steering Committee, I am writing to
ask your support of the proposed amendment to the zoning ordinance to allow
outdoor recreational uses within industrial areas. As Tigard grows, the amount
of land available for recreational use continues to shrink. This amendment would
allow the City some flexibility in identifying and creating additional open space for
recreational use.
Parks have long been considered essential for enhancing the attractiveness and
livability of a community. Dog parks have recently become a popular addition to
outdoor recreation use. With over 500 dog parks currently in the country, cities
and counties have begun to recognize their use as a legitimate form of outdoor
recreation akin to jogging or biking. A3 Tigard's experimental dog park showed,
these areas provide needed social opportunities for both dogs and humans.
For the past eight months, the Tigard Dog Park Steering Committee has been
exploring potential dog park sites. Our primary obstacle (and frustration) has
been finding a suitable and affordable piece of property. One of the sites under
consideration is currently zoned for industrial use. The proposed amendment
would allow us to site a dog park on this property and still allow the property to be
developed for industrial use in the future.
Beyond dog parks, approval of this amendment could enhance the City's ability
to develop partnerships with the private sector to create more recreational space
in the City. Thank you for your consideration of this issue.
Sincerely,
Vauk Li4pw

Exhibit A
City Engineer's Report
Sanitary Sewer Reimbursement District No. 19 (SW Hunziker Street)
Background
This project will be constructed and funded under the City of Tigard Commercial
Area Sewer Extension Program (CASEP). Under the program the City of Tigard
would install public sewers to each lot within a project area. At the time the
property owner connects to the sewer, the owner would pay a connection fee of
$2,335.00 and reimburse the City for a fair share of the cost of the public sewer.
There is no requirement to connect to the sewer or pay any fee until connection
is made. In addition, property owners are responsible for disconnecting their
existing septic system according to Washington County rules and for any other
modifications necessary to connect to the public sewer. To be considered for the
program, a neighborhood needs to submit evidence of owner support for the
project. In this case, there is only one lot in the district and the owner is
requesting that a district be formed.
Project Area - Zone of Benefit
An existing sanitary sewer line is located in Hunziker Street as shown on Exhibit
Map B. The line would be extended northwest approximately 145 feet along SW
Hunziker Street to the property. This is the only property in the area without
service so there will be no further need to extend the line.
Cost
The actual cost for the sanitary sewer construction is $9,560. Engineering and
inspection fees amount to $1,291 (13.5%) as defined in TMC 13.09.040(1). The
total project cost including these fees is $10,851. This entire amount should be
reimbursed to the sanitary sewer fund when the property connects to the sewer.
In addition to the cost of the public sewer line, the property owner will be required
to pay an additional $2,335 connection and inspection fee when connection to
the public line is made, and will be responsible for all plumbing costs required for
work done on private property.
Reimbursement Rate
The property is zoned I-P as can be seen in Exhibit Map B. Since there is only
one lot in the proposed district, it is recommended that the total cost of the
project be assigned to this owner. Resolution 98-51 limits this fee for residential
lots to $8,000 to the extent that it does not exceed $15,000 per owner for
connections completed within one year of final approval of the City Engineer's
Report. Since this lot is not zoned residential, this fee reduction is not available
to the owner of this lot.
The property owner's estimated fair share of the public sewer line is
$10,851
Annual Fee Adjustment
TMC 13.09.115 states that an annual percentage rate shall be applied to each
property owner's fair share of the sewer line costs on the anniversary date of the
reimbursement agreement. The Finance Director has set the annual interest
rate at 6.05% as stated in City of Tigard Resolution No. 98-22.
Recommendation
It is recommended that a reimbursement district be formed with an annual fee
increase as indicated above and that the reimbursement district continue for
fifteen years as provided in the Tigard Municipal Code (TMC) 13.09.110(5).
Fifteen years after the formation of the reimbursement district, the property
connecting to the sewer would no longer be required to pay the reimbursement
fee.

AGENDA ITEM # O
FOR AGENDA OF May 8, 2001
CITY OF TIGARD, OREGON
COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY
ISSUE/AGENDA TITLE Authorizing the sale of surplus propegy purchased for the Beveland Street extension
from 68th Ave to 69th Ave part of the 69th Ave Reconstruction Project. ^ n

PREPARED BY: Craig Prosser, Finance Dir DEPT HEAD OK CF, b CITY MGR OK
ISSUE BEFORE THE COUNCIL
Shall the City Council approve sale of a "substandard undeveloped" property acquired for the Beveland Street
extension from 68th Ave to 69th Ave for the 69th Ave Reconstruction Project?
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Authorize the City Manager to negotiate the sale of the above said property.
INFORMATION SUMMARY
Council first approved this resolution on February 27, 2001. However, advance notice of the Council action was
not sent to surrounding property owners as required by Tigard Municipal Code. Because of this procedural error,
the City Attorney has advised that it is necessary to readopt this resolution.
The surplus property is a remnant of the Peirce property purchased by the City for the extension of Beveland Street
from 68th Ave to 69th Ave., part of the 69th Ave Reconstruction Project. The portion necessary for the extension
has been retained and the remaining approximate 3,902 square feet is now surplus. TMC 3.44.010 (b) requires
Council's approval to proceed with the sale, publicize as deemed appropriate, determine the existence of interested
prospective purchasers and negotiate for the sale of the property.
The City completed a bid process to sell the remnant. Only one bid was received and it was unacceptable because
it was below the appraised value and the apparent value of the adjacent properties. It is the City's intent to identify
a potential buyer and then to negotiate for the best price.
The parcel qualifies as "substandard undeveloped" property because of the lot width. TMC 3.44.010 does not
require a public hearing for disposing of substandard undeveloped parcels. Adjoining property owners will be
notified of the proposals in accordance with TMC 3.44.010.
OTHER ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED
1. Sell the property for the bid price of $15,608
2. Hold the property for future sale or other public use

Legal description and map of property location.
FISCAL NOTES
The subject property is part of the Tigard Triangle and part of the 69th LID. The money from the sale of the
surplus property will reduce the assessment fee of the LID to property owners.
