RE: Wall Street Extension LID
Dear Mayor Griffith and City Council,
The Tualatin Riverkeepers are a citizen-based organization working to protect and restore
the Tualatin River system. We currently have over 600 members, with a large portion of
them living in the City of Tigard. We have partnered with the City of Tigard often on
projects including the Cook Park Master Plan, A Paddler's Guide to the Lower Tualatin
River, and various clean-up and restoration projects.
We have a particular interest in preservation of natural habitat in the Tualatin basin. In
Tigard, much of the best remaining habitat is on Fanno Creek and its tributaries. In our
recently published book, Exploring the Tualatin River Basin: A Nature and Recreation
Guide, we have devoted two whole chapters to greenspaces in the Fanno Creek drainage.
This book represents the efforts of 70 volunteers contributing more than 10,000 volunteer
hours.
Fanno Creek, as most urban streams, has been heavily impacted by land development.
But tremendous community efforts have gone into protecting the remaining natural
functions of the creek and restoring the creek to health. Clean Water Services has made a
heavy investment in watershed planning and restoring natural meanders to the creek. The
Metro Greenspaces program and the City of Tigard have made significant investments in
acquiring land for the Fanno Creek Greenway Trail. Susan Koepping, The City of
Tigard's Volunteer Coordinator has been tremendously effective in recruiting volunteers
for restoration projects on Fanno Creek and its tributaries. The restoration efforts of
students at Fowler Middle School on Summer Creek at its confluence with Fanno Creek
were honored with a visit from Governor Kitzhaber a few years ago. For many years, the
Fans of Fanno Creek have rallied hundreds of volunteers to participate in tree planting
projects to restore the riparian zone along the creek. At one event sponsored by the Fans,
'800 volunteers showed up to plant trees. The community's commitment to the protection
and restoration of Fanno Creek is deep and clear.
04/23/02 TRK to Tigard City Council 1
The Tualatin Riverkeepers is a community-based organization working to protect and restore Oregon's Tualatin River system.
The Tualatin Riverkeepers builds watershed stewardship through public education, access to nature, citizen involvement and advocacy.
There is good reason for this commitment. Recently, the Fans of Fanno Creek found
several colonies of Oregon Floater Clams, a once common species that is sensitive to
water quality problems. The creek still supports a small breeding population of native
cutthroat trout, a candidate for listing under the Federal Endangered Species Act. Fanno
Creek and its tributaries have been identified by the National Marine Fisheries Service as
critical habitat for the threatened Upper Willamette Steelhead Trout. Several state-listed
sensitive species are found on Fanno Creek, in its wetlands and riparian zone, including
Western Pond Turtle (critical), Western Painted Turtle (critical), Red-legged Frog,
Pileated Woodpecker, and Willow Flycatcher.
In addition, dozens of wildlife species that are not on state or federal lists provide Tigard
citizens with access to wildlife that is a very important component of the quality of life in
our city. The Portland has buried dozens of its streams in pipes under its streets. The
name sake river of the City of Los Angeles has been lined with concrete. In comparison
to most other cities, Tigard has a very special resource in the wildlife and habitat
associated with Fanno Creek.
With these special resources in mind, the Tualatin Riverkeepers strongly protest the
City's decision to pursue a j ocal Improvement District to extend Nall Street over
Fanno Creek. The stretch of Fanno Creek that would be impacted is one of the last best
stretches of contiguous habitat left in the City. The Pacific Northwest Research Project
has documented the presence of Western Pond Turtles on this stretch of the creek. As I
mentioned before, this species is on the critical list for the State of Oregon.
The April 1996 Background Review for'the Fanno Creek Watershed Plan described this
stretch of Fanno Creek:
This is a hydrologically healthy stretch of Fanno, the channel meanders
naturally and is not severely incised. High flow channels are evident and the
stream is well connected to its flood plain: The area is fairly well vegetated with
oak willow, hawthorn, alder, grasses, herbaceous weeds and blackberry. The
location is suitable and lends itself to*being maintained as a natural greenway for
passive recreation and flood control/high water absorption.
Clean Water Services has invested millions of dollars in restoring the stretch of the creek
through Englewood Park to these conditions. The effort involved hundreds of volunteers.
Extending Wall Street over Fanno Creek would severely impact these desirable
conditions in the Hall to Bonita stretch.
In the past when the Tualatin Riverkeepers have raised concerns about the impact of
project on habitats in the City of Tigard, we have heard the response from both staff and
council members that the city will mitigate the for the damage done. We feel the
"destroy then mitigate" scenario is not appropriate here for severaireasons:
1. The Clean Water Act requires the City to pursue all practicable upland
alternatives to impacting wetlands. The Tigard Transportation System Plan (TSP) clearly
04/23/02 TRK to Tigard City Council 2
identifies preferable alternatives for achieving the traffic circulation benefits identified in
the Preliminary Evaluation Report for the Wall Street LID. Some of these alternatives
would have positive ecological impact on Fanno Creek and should be pursued with great
vigor.
2. No amount of tree planting can protect Western Pond Turtles, Red-legged
Frogs, and Painted Turtles from being flattened by an automobile. Siting a road through
known habitat of sensitive species is never appropriate, particularly when viable
alternatives are available.
3. Mitigation for wetland impact fails to adequately replace lost wetland values.
In foreword of the September 1999 edition of WETLANDS, the journal of the Society of
Wetland Scientists, Mary E. Kentula and Teresa K. Magee state, based on their study of
mitigation projects in the Portland area:
Our results indicate that urbanization and mitigation practices are major
stressors that are changing the structure and ecological character of wetland
resources in the Portland metropolitan area.
In the same issue, Paul W. Shaffer and Ted L. Ernst report:
The ecological success of projects has been problematic, however, as poor design
and/or implementation have often resulted in wetlands with limited function or in
complete failure. In general, the use of projects to offset wetland losses remains
an unproven concept, as full replacement of ecological functions has not been
demonstrated.
The Fanno Creek Watershed Plan (Table 16, page 50) states that this stretch of Fanno
Creek "Needs protection from development." In the list of Bridge and Culvert
Replacement of Projects (Table 8, page 94) the plan states that replacing the bridge at
Hall Blvd with a longer, higher bridge as a high priority project. This project has the
benefits of accommodating high flows (currently the creek flows over Hall Blvd at flood
stage), providing for passage of wildlife, and accommodating pedestrian passage on the
Fanno Creek Greenway Trail. If this bridge replacement occurs with the upgrade of Hall
Blvd identified in the regional transportation plan, it would also improve traffic flow to
the functional level used in the preliminary LID report to justify the Wall Street
extension. Clearly this is a far better alternative than the Wall Street extension in that it
solves traffic problems and environmental problems and pedestrian safety problems, and
while not destroying habitat for sensitive species.
Tigard's own Transportation System Plan recommends better alternatives to traffic flow
problems in this part of town. For east-west circulation, the TSP recommends on page
8-39 two options: 1) widening Bonita and McDonald to 5lanes and 2) widening Carman
Drive to I-5 to five lanes and connecting it directly to Durham Rd. In reference to the
Wall Street extension, the report states "Other alternatives to serve future east-west
demand are precluded due to the railroad , wetlands, river and being too far north or south
to serve the projected demand."
04/23/02 TRK to Tigard City Council 3
Mimi 11111~~=111110111111111
Table 8-7 listing recommended improvements does not list the Wall Street extension
project. With regard to relief of traffic at Hall/Hunziker, the TSP recommend realigning
Scoffins to meet Hunziker, not building the Wall Street Extension. With regard to the
capacity of Hall Blvd, the TSP recommends expanding Hall Blvd. to 5 lanes, not building
the Wall Street extension. With regard to the 72nd/Bonita Road intersection, the report
recommends widening 72nd to 5 lanes and, widening Bonita Road to 4 lanes and does not
recommend the extension of Wall Street. In summary,.the TSP does not recommend the
extension of Wall Street as a solution to any of the problems mentioned in the
Preliminary Evaluation Report. Further it states that other alternatives (i.ncluding the
Wall Street Project) are precluded by railroad, wetlands and being in the wrong location.
It would appear that the Wall Street project is being driven by some force other than the
traffic circulation benefits stated in the Preliminary Evaluation Report.
There are additional safety problems associated with the Wall Street extension project
that are recognized in the TSP. Oregon Department of Transportation has a policy of
recommending no new rail crossings, because of the inherent threat to life. The proposed
Wall Street project will cross rail lines and be contrary to this safety policy. The Final
Environmental Assessment for the Wilsonville to Beaverton Commuter Rail states that
train traffic on this track will.increase "from less than 10 per day to more than 30 per day
(including commuter and freight operations)."
Finally, we wish to remind you of a vision of Tigard where quality of life is dependent on
easy access to nature. In the 1997 Community Visioning Survey commissioned by the
City of Tigard, residents were asked to choose from pairs of different policy options. The .
strongest expression of preference was shown in the question asking about opens spaces
and development. By a margin of 86% to 14%, Tigard residents indicated that they
preferred policies that "encourage protection of open .spaces" over policies that
"accommodate new development". The decision to extend Wall Street over some of the
last, best open space on Fanno Creek is contrary to this strongly held community vision
for the City of Tigard. With this in mind, the Tualatin Riverkeepers respectfully request
that you reverse your decision to pursue a Local Improvement District for the extension
of Wall Street.
Sincerely,
Brian Wegener, Chair

MEMORANDUM
TO: Ed Wegner
FROM: Matt Stine
RE: Hazard tree at SW 117th Place & SW Bull Mountain Road
DATE: April 23, 2002 .
Throughout my entire involvement with this hazardous tree issue I have intentionally,
diligently and consistently requested assistance from the Public Works Director, the
Parks Manager, the Parks Supervisor and the City Attorney's office (Gary Firestone).
From the moment I heard about this hazardous tree, my primary goal was to look out for
the safety and well-being of the people travelling on Bull Mountain Road and for the
lives of the family members living in the home that was threatened by the hazardous
tree.
Chronology of events regarding the hazardous Douglas fir tree at the intersection of SW
117th Place and SW Bull Mountain Road.
• 4/17/02- 1 received a phone message left on 4/16/02 at 4:06 PM from Matt Ellen
(sp?) from Morton Tree & Landscape Maintenance Company. Matt called to inform
me of a hazardous Douglas fir tree, located in the public right-of-way, leaning into a
smaller Douglas fir tree, also in the public right-of-way, on Bull Mountain Road. It is
very common to receive phone calls from citizens, arborists, other public agencies,
business owners, etc. pointing out dangerous or hazardous trees.
S 1 inspected the tree, located in the public right-of-way off of a private road, and
noticed that the Douglas fir was indeed leaning north. I also noticed the soil heaving
and cracking as well as roots breaking the surface of the soil on the south side of the
tree. These observations are indications of root failure, which indicate the entire
tree's imminent failure. To the north of this tree, directly across Bull Mountain Road,
there is a private residence owned by Gary Zhang. This house is well within the
range of this tree if (and when) it falls.
a After consulting with you and Steve Martin on this issue I looked up the name and
address of the owner of this private road, SW 117th Place. This party would
ultimately be responsible for the maintenance of the private road and abutting right-
of-way. Brian Rager informed me that, according to the recorded plat of this small
housing development, the owners of parcels 1, 2 and 3 are equally responsible for
the ownership and maintenance of Tract "A", which is the private road. Therefore,
according to Chapter 18, 745.030F of the Tigard City Code, the homeowners at
14728 SW 117 th Place, 14764 SW 117 th Place and 14822 SW 117th Place are
ultimately responsible for the maintenance of this tree since it is growing within the
abutting right-of-way.
• 1 telephoned the three homeowners to inform them of this hazardous tree and their
responsibility for its removal. I left messages with two of the homeowners (the
Eisenbach's and the Johnson's) and spoke with one homeowner, Tamara Orfield. I
informed each homeowner that there was a hazardous tree in the public right-of-way
and they were responsible for that tree since their private drive is abutting the right-
of-way where the tree is located. I also informed Mrs. Orfield that she could obtain a
copy of Chapter 18.745.030F in Tigard's City Code from the city's website to verify
her responsibilities as a homeowner concerning the right-of-way regarding this
hazardous Douglas fir tree.
a I spoke with Gary Firestone, Tigard's City Attorney, who informed me that, because
the tree is hazardous and threatens a major road with heavy traffic as well as
someone's home, I could give the homeowners a period of time to have the tree
removed. If the tree was not removed within that period of time, the city could
remove the tree and bill the homeowners for the cost of the tree's removal and
disposal.
w I wrote a letter to each homeowner explaining the situation and enclosed a copy of
Tigard City Code 18.745.030F, which outlines their responsibility for this tree. I hand
delivered each letter and hung them on the homeowners' doors. While I was at the
site I took pictures of the tree and the heaving soil as documentation. Additionally, I
spoke with Mr. Eisenbach as well as Mrs. Johnson. Mr. Eisenbach was very
understanding and stated that the tree's removal would be taken care of by him and
his neighbors. I informed him of the deadline and he did not indicate to me that the
deadline was unreasonable or could not be met. I offered to refer various tree
removal companies to him that I have worked with in the past. I mentioned
Halstead's Arboriculture Consultants, Morton Tree & Landscape Maintenance
Company (the same company that pointed out the hazardous tree), Buena Vista
Arbor Care Company and Rich's Tree Service. While speaking with Mrs. Johnson I
offered the exact same information as I had given to Mr. Eisenbach, including the
referral of several tree companies. Mrs. Johnson also did not indicate any problems
or issues regarding the deadline for the tree's removal.
® I also spoke with Mr. Zhang, the homeowner who's home is across Bull Mountain
Road and directly in line of this hazardous tree. Mr. Zhang had been informed by
Morton Tree & Landscape Maintenance Company that the tree in question was
hazardous and leaning directly towards his home. I told Mr. Zhang that the tree
would be removed by Tuesday, April 23, 2002. 1 gave him a copy of the letter that I
sent to each of the three homeowners on SW 117th Place regarding the removal of
this hazardous Douglas fir tree.
• 1 spoke with Marti (sp.?) from Morton Tree & Landscape Maintenance Company to
arrange for the tree to come down first thing on Tuesday morning, April 23, 2002 if
the homeowners had not removed the tree by close of business Monday, April 22,
2002. 1 called Morton Tree & Landscape Maintenance Company because I have
worked with them in the past on numerous occasions and all of their required
documents regarding insurance, licenses, etc are already on file with the city. I have
always been extremely satisfied with their work and bid prices. They knew where
the tree was located and I would not have to spend any extra time calling other
arborists and taking them out to the tree. I was quite confident that this job would be
under $2,500.00 so I did not have to get three quotes for this hazardous tree's
removal.
4/22/02- 1 was informed by Susan Johnson, 14764 SW 117th Place, that the tree had
been removed along with the smaller Douglas hr immediately adjacent to the larger
hazardous Douglas fir. She indicated that they chose a different tree removal
company than Morton since Morton's bid was so much higher.
• 1 received a call from Bill Monahan at approximately 11:45 AM informing me that a
letter had arrived from Sherry Eisenbach (14822 SW 117th Place). This letter
outlined Mrs. Eisenbach's feelings about the city's involvement with this hazardous
tree's removal among several other tree-related issues.
.i.
• 4/23/02- At 9:30 AM I telephoned and left a voice mail message for Mrs. Eisenbach.
I called to speak with her about the letter that she had written and dated April 17,
2002. 1 wanted to address her concerns regarding the hazardous condition of this
Douglas fir tree and the city's relationship with Morton Tree & Landscape
Maintenance Company.

Dear Sirs: Awn_
I am writing to you to express my rage at the collusion and underhanded
operations I have witnessed, and been a victim of, by your employees in the name of the
City of Tigard. On the evening of April 17, 2002, I returned from work to my home to
find that a letter had been delivered that day instructing us and 2 other families on our
street to cut down a Douglas Fir which was deemed "hazardous" by the City Forester,
Matt Stine. Mr. Stine in his letter stated that the tree is leaning and has indications of root
failure. What I came to find out later is that Mr. Stine was pointed to this tree by a local
tree cutting firm, a private company but drumming up business. And not only would this
tree need to be cut down within 3 business days, but that if we didn't do it in the allotted
time, this very same tree deceitful company would be given the honors to doff our tree.
The back door deals are stunning! Maybe you are not a working stiff, like some of us, but
you might appreciate that to get bids and to complete this task under the gun, your gun, is
a task that would stir up anger and resentment in your citizens, your constituents. You
might even understand that for some 3 days is not a lot of time to come up over $1000
out of family budgets which are already stretched too tight and made taut by situations
you could not possibly be aware of. This anger and resentment is inflamed even more by
the fact that:
I . this situation was caused by a money grubbing agent-in-kind for you and your
employee, Mr. Stine, putting their hands in MY wallet,
2. that I must comply with your time table, not my own, in which we could
obtain bids in a rational, well-managed process rather than the frantic, rushed
process you demand,
3. that this tree is green, not dropping its needles and much less of a hazard than
other trees threatening our own houses but which are on private property, and
4. that you are the same City Council which allow our next door neighbors to
harbor goats within the city limits and up against our property line,
5. that you are the same City Council which allowed a builder to mow down
more than an acre and a half, a forest of 75 trees or so, of large Douglas Firs
on a Saturday (so no one could stop them) on the property which abuts our
property. Not a word was said to stop them, nor afterwards, after the crime.
My anger has not passed and will not pass soon. So I say to those people who voted down
your annexation of the northern side of Bull Mountain, "Way to go!" Keep the City of
Tigard out of your wallets as long as possible because they do not respect you as a person

SERVICE (WCCLS) PROPOSED LOCAL OPTION LEVY
Library Director Barnes and Finance Director Prosser were present to update

previously about including funding for the Regional Arts and Culture Council
(RACC) with the WCCLS funding proposal to be submitted to voters. An
April 22, 2002, letter from Charles Cameron, Washington County
Administrator was distributed to Council. The letter offers background and an
explanation regarding including RACC funding with the WCCLS levy proposal.
Discussion followed with staff noting that they are comfortable with the
explanation offered. The next issue to be worked through is the formula for
distribution of funds of members of WCCLS.
Staff asked for direction on the rate amount that will be requested in the ballot
measure. Staff advised they would recommend a rate-based levy. It was noted
that in order to maintain the threshold of current services the requested levy
would need to be 17 cents per $1,000 of assessed value. After discussion,

RE: FUNDING OR THE ARTS IN THE WCCLS LEVY
Dear ,
As you know, the Cooperative Library Advisory Board (CLAB) is in the midst of
preparing a funding proposal in support of countywide library operations for voter
consideration this November. This plan includes the critical funding needed to address
growth in demand for services in all public libraries, increased support for central library
support functions (book delivery, information systems and services for special
populations), and a small amount of funding for the Regional Arts and Culture Council
(RACC).
It is my understanding that the Tigard City Council has asked about the origin of the arts
funding component and why the County Board of Commissioners are so invested in it. I
hope you will find the following background information useful in addressing these
important questions. I believe that this information provides a solid basis for the inclusion
of this funding component in the CLAB funding proposal.
Background
In 1995, Washington County entered into an agreement with the City of Portland, Metro,
and Clack<imas and Multnomah Counties to support RACC and its mission of providing
leadershil , advocacy, and funding to arts and culture. As agreed, RACC provides its
services r.;gionally, supporting the growing arts and culture community, which flourishes
across g:;ographic and jurisdictional borders. The Westside Cultural Alliance, formed out
of a stunmit on arts and culture issues in Washington County, partners with RACC to
ieentify, address, and advocate for local arts and culture priorities.
This partnership has been significant to the Washington County arts and culture
community. Since 1995, the County has provided funding for arts and culture programs
county Administrative office
155 North First Avenue, Suite 300, MS 21, Hillsboro, OR 97124-3072
phone: (503) 846-8685 • fax: (503) 846-4545
that has allowed RACC to leverage additional funding from other sources for use in the
County. These sources include: Metro, Oregon Ails Commission, National Endowment
for the Arts, schools, foundations, and the City of Portland. The chart below summarizes
historic County funding for RACC and the additional funds leveraged.
Washington County Arts Funding
Washington Leveraged Total
County
1995-1996 $40,000 $70,000 $110,000
1996-1997 $50,000 $72,047 $122,047
1997-1998 $14,655 $96,186 $110,841
1998-1999 $50,000 $104,341 $154,341
1999-2000 $25,000 $92,187 $117,187
2000-2001 $25,000 $67,396 $92,396
2001-2002 $50,000 $138,685 $188,685
Totals $254,655 $640,842 $895,497
Washington County allocations include Washington County Visitors Association allocation of $14,655 in
1997-1998.
As shown above, the County has been funding RACC for years (the current budget is
$50,000) as well as directly investing in the arts. As a matter of fact, in addition to the
above, we have directly purchased over $600,000 in paintings, graphics, photography and
three-dimensional art in the last several years. The most notable of these expenditures is
the sculpture garden on the grounds of the Law Enforcement Center.
RA CC Funding and the County's Annual Budget Process
Notwithstanding the above commitments, funding for RACC has nevertheless been
problematic, and every year both RACC and the County vow to come up with an
alternative, more stable and adequate means of providing long-term funding. Each year,
RACC requests funding from the County General Fund and the response has usually been
to fund at the $25,000 to $50,000 level. Several prominent Washington County citizens
attest to the value of this modest investment in terms of the benefits that accrue to youth
and the general quality of life. This last year there was particular passion around the
commitment and underlying this commitment is the majority of the Board of
Commissioners' opinion that arts and letters are integral components of a livable
community.
This, of course, is all taken in the context of the County budget. If one looks at the
County's budget, they will see that it is comprised of a large and complex criminal justice
system, land use and transportation functions, health and humans services programs and
culture education and recreation-most of which is comprised of the Cooperative Library
System. As you would guess, much of this work is pretty grim. You can probably also
appreciate that some gesture toward the arts is a rose amidst the field of challenges--of
hardened criminals, congested transportation systems and huge unmet human services
needs--that somehow softens the hard edges in community building.
To illustrate further, look at the appended County organization chart. Notice that the
County has configured its programs since 1983 along the broad service areas of General
Government, Public Safety, Land Use, Housing and Transportation, Health and Human
Services, and Culture, Education and Recreation. The point is that our budget mentality
is to associate like functions with one another. So it is eminently logical to us (at least)
that if we are to propose to our voters funding for the letters portion of culture, that the
opportunity exists (via the WCCLS levy) to address the unmet need on the arts side.
What Does the RA CC Funding Commitment Purchase?
When Tom Brian and I met with the leadership of RACC we suggested that, they develop
a proposal that would fund current and new programs in Washington County for
inclusion in the levy. As well, we would like to see them maintain or expand the
programs that RACC currently supports that occur in our libraries. It seemed then (and
now) that a clear nexus exists between these programs... in essence 2% of the proposed
levy for arts programs in Washington County.
More specifically, the RACC funding portion of the levy proposal is for $200,000
annually for five years--total $1,000,000. All funding would be used to support
Washington County artists, organizations and programs as follows:
s $25,000 for Arts In Libraries Program: This funding continues and increases support
for the successful and popular program that began with a RACONEA grant in 2000.
RACC support would increase from $17,500 to $25,000 annually, with an additional
partial match from WCCLS. Libraries use this funding and RACC Neighborhood
Artists' roster to provide community based artistic and cultural programs and
performances. The Arts in Libraries program brings culture and art to local
neighborhoods, focusing on public libraries as established community centers and
gathering places. With the RACC/NEA grant, 12 libraries were served at $2,200
each. This proposal would provide funding for 13 libraries at $2,950 each and
represents a 34% increase in arts funding to libraries.
® $100,000 for Grants to Arts and Culture Organizations: This would provide increased
operational support grants for Washington County community-based arts and cultural
organizations to help them leverage earned and contributed income. These include
technical assistance (building professional and leadership capacity within the
organizations to help them run more efficiently) and capacity-building funding to
help Washington County organizations grow into sustainable community
organizations. During the current year, 28 of 55 Washington County applications
IN Ilm IM,
were funded in the area of technical Assistance grants and Project Grants, or
50%. With additional levy funding, more grants could be funded to address
community needs.
• $50,000 for Arts In Education: This would provide subsidies to Washington County
schools for Artists in Residence grants, funds for arts programming in schools
through the Arts Plan School Incentive Grant program, and funds for Arts Plan
Partner Grants in which arts organizations partner with schools to provide arts and
cultural programming. In . li'Y01-02, of the 111 public schools in Washington
County, 9 are served by the RACC Artist in Residency / Subsidy funds; 3 are
receiving Arts Plan Incentive Grants; 3 receive Architects in Schools funds for a
total of 13.6% of schools served. With passage of the levy there could be a 194%
increase in funding for Arts Education in Washington County.
® $25,000 for Westside Cultural Alliance (WCA) Coordination: This funding would
provide contracted professional consulting support for the work of the WCA, a
Washington County based arts education and advocacy group.. Professional support
would facilitate communication between community arts and culture' organizations
and provide information, research and data that would lead to professional
development and increasbd funding for Washington County based organizations and
artists.
I hope this explanation addresses the Council's questions. I hope it also conveys the
passion that a majority of my Board feels about this issue.

City Manager Performance Evaluation comments d 3 t2
April 23, 2002
Organization and Planning:
Good about organizing work, juggling priorities and creating options when the
need arises. Extremely organized and plans well. Is placing more effort at looking
into the future and evaluating the impact of upcoming events or situations.
Administration:
Has demonstrated a willingness to delegate to the staff and Department Heads,
and let the Department Heads do their jobs. Bill is always prepared and willing to
provide alternatives when making recommendations to City Council. Everyone
appreciates his thoroughness.
In spite of being an Attorney, Bill is not so fixed on rules, to the exclusion of all
else, that he won't consider options that meet the law, but would require some
more creative steps to implement.
Bill is a good administrator.
Employee Relations / Development:
Bill has an uncanny ability to hire only the best. He is very supportive of their
initial training and ongoing training. He had a good personal and working
relationship with employees and has made advancements in letting staff take
accountability for their work.
Communications:
Bill communicates well with the public, his peers, staff and council. Bill has the
ability to make excellent verbal and written presentations tailored to the particular
audience. It is very enjoyable working with Bill as the City Manager and
considers him very adept at working with five very different personalities on the
council.
Leadership:
Bill has gradually started presenting options with his recommendations to Council
that includes higher levels of risk. Bill still needs to continue to step out of his
conservative box and be a little more forward thinking, take more chances, and
make Tigard more innovative. Bill has started to make decisions at his level that I
believe he would have been reluctant to make in the past but for the Council's
direction to him last year. This does not mean, however, that he is no longer
1111111 , SEE
sensitive to risks. He is doing a good job in integrating council guidance into
actions.
Community groups and leaders see Bill as a highly respected member of the City
of Tigard management team. He also promotes the values we believe he stands for
as an individual. Bill is an ethical, trustworthy individual and City Manager. In
other words, "he walks the talk".
Financial:
Bill is extremely cost-conscious. This works to the benefit of the City's taxpayers.
I would consider Bill's performance to be outstanding with respect to adherence
to the financial plan. He will do whatever it takes to assure that the City meets its
obligations and promises to the taxpayer. The Department Head's are required to
carefully monitor their budgets throughout the year, and Bill is not a "easy sell" if
extra expenditures are requested during the year. His selection of the Finance
Director provides a perfect compliment to his fiscal conservatism.
Supervision:
Improvement has been made in his delegation skills and he fully understands his
role as a City Manager. He has demonstrated his ability to be consistent with his
staff and Department Heads.
Fob Knowledge:
Bill has become an excellent City Manager. His knowledge has improved to the
point that he knows and understands the City's policies and procedures and how
to effectively apply them as required.

good personal and working relationship with employees and has made advancements in letting staff take accountability for

The purpose of the performance appraisal is to:
• Communicate performance goals, standards and expectations
• Evaluate employee performance against job standards and expectations
• Provide written documentation of employee performance
• Assist with the development and training of employees
• Create a dialogue between supervisors and employees on job performance matters
Evaluate each "Category" of performance. Use the "Rating Categories" sheet (following page)
and assign one rating on the line provided under "Rating" for each performance category (i.e.
Organization & Planning). To the left of each numbered characteristic is a line. These lines are
for the optional use of the rater. You do not need to rate each characteristic, only to provide one
overall rating as described above.
Managers are expected to follow appropriate safeguards to assure that the performance
appraisal is available only to those who have a need and right to have access to the evaluation.
When conducting a performance evaluation/appraisal meeting, it is recommended that the
manager:
1. Explain the purpose and your agenda for the meeting.
2. Encourage response from the employee and two-way communication.
3. Mutually review performance expectations.
4. Discuss your ratings using specific examples.
5. Recognize areas of achievement/goals met, and identify opportunities for improvement.
6. Explore career progress and determine developmental/training needs.
7. Plan performance for the next review period.

MEMORANDUM afl'
3~,csin.e5s
CITY OF TIGARD, OREGON
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM: Bill Monahan
DATE: April 23, 2002
SUBJECT: Department Head Life Insurance
Background .
Presently, each of our six department heads and the City Manager have the option of the
City funding additional term life insurance coverage. In the case of department heads, the
coverage equals two times the annual salary. In the case of the City Manager, the
employment contract provides for a City contribution of a fixed amount $1,000 toward
coverage.
For a variety of reasons, only three of the six department heads accept the term life
benefit. Reasons given for not accepting coverage include: 1) the tax consequences of
accepting the coverage are too high; 2) the department head already has a universal life
insurance policy or some other coverage that he or she is satisfied with; or 3) the
department head would prefer some other benefit such as long-term care coverage.
I would like to explore providing options to department heads rather than offer only term
life insurance coverage as with the current program. This memo will discuss options for
Council consideration.
Options
I propose that the individuals filling the seven positions of department head and City
Manager have the ability to choose one or more options to utilize their life insurance
benefit. I further propose that the life insurance benefit be expanded to include long-term
care coverage.
The options I suggest be established are
1) Life Insurance Coverage-
The cost of coverage varies for each department head based on age. I
suggest that a fixed amount be set for the City's contribution. Based on
information provided to me by Sherrie Burbank of Human Resources, the
estimated cost of life insurance coverage for our six department heads,
as of July 1, 2002, ranges from $91.37 to $719.43. The three department
Department Head Life Insurance
April 23, 2002 Page 2
heads presently accepting City coverage range from a cost of $563 to
$695, estimated to rise to $583 to $719 for the coming year. Again, these
rates apply to the cost of life insurance at a value of twice the annual
salary of the individual.
I propose that Council allow each of the six department heads to receive
City contributions toward life insurance coverage up to $750 annually.
The level of coverage limit would be based on no more than three times
the employee's salary, at a cost not to exceed $750.
2) Method of Payment of Life Insurance Coverage--
Presently, the City pays for department head life insurance coverage on
behalf of the employee. A few years ago, I suggested to Council a
different approach for my life insurance. Council agreed to pay me the
lump sum of $1,000:Which I apply to my term coverage. Utilizing this
method of payment, my federal tax consequences are less than if the
City paid directly for the coverage. I suggest that Council consider
making this option available to department heads-reimbursement of up
to $750 annually upon showing that the premium was paid directly by the
department head.
3) Type of Insurance-
Some department heads may prefer applying life insurance payment to
universal life insurance rather than term. In fact, some of our department
heads may have an existing universal life insurance policy that they
began paying for prior to employment with Tigard. The department head
may prefer to apply their Tigard life insurance benefit to their universal
policy. I suggest that department heads have the option of applying their
life insurance allocation to a universal life policy. The amount allowed
would be determined by the 'Yormula" described for term coverage in
Item 1 above.
4) Long-term Care Coverage-
Long-term care coverage has appeal for some department heads
instead of life insurance. Such care can be quite costly. The sooner an
individual begins paying for this type of coverage, the lower the cost.
Estimated long-term care costs for our department heads as of July 1,
2002, varies from a "low range" of $972--$1,401 to a high of $1,731 to
$2,080. Obviously, the range is determined by the provider of the
coverage and the level of care sought. My recommendation is that the
City provide a lump sum payment to a department head which is
reimbursement for a portion of the long-term care secured by the
Department Head Life Insurance
April 23, 2002 Page 3
department head. Presently, the City does not have an arrangement with
a coverage provider. Human Resources recommends that if Council
makes this coverage available to department heads, have the
department heads be responsible for obtaining their own coverage. In
that way, the coverage can be tailored to the individual's needs.
5) Choice of More Than One Option-
If Council chose to allow a fixed amount of payment, say the cost of term
insurance equal to three times the individual's salary, not to exceed
$750, or to simplify matters - a flat amount of $750, 1 suggest that the
individual department head be able to allocate the amount to more than
one benefit. For instance, the department head could choose to
contribute some of the benefit to long-term care insurance and some to
their universal life coverage.
I would be pleased to discuss this memo and the options contained herein with Council.
Establishing options for department head benefits should assist us to have a more
competitive salary and benefit package. I would like to make any change effective July 1 or
when the individual department heads' insurance coverage periods reach the renewal
dates.

In consideration of the 2002 Goals, the City Council stated the following:
"The present state of the economy is a concern that
could impact the council's completion of the 2002
Goals. Each of the 2002 Goals could be impacted if
the state, federal, or local economic situation results in
a decrease in available funds for Tigard operations
and projects."

Tigard City Council Goals 2_
Engineering/Community Development: Gus/Jim
GOAL 1: TRANSPORTATION
A. Explore funding sources for transportation needs. Funding for
maintenance and capital are needed for the following-
1. Roads
2. Trails/Bicycles
3. Pedestrian Safety (Sidewalks, streetlights, crosswalks)
4. Bridges
B. Work with Tri-Met to develop intra-city bus service and Park-and-
Ride locations.
C. Work with ODOT on state-funded facilities.
Q-1, April 2002 Update
Goal I.A.1. Roads
The Transportation Financing Strategies Task Force met on February
21 s' and approved the draft Street Maintenance Fee Study Report with
modifications. The Task Force recommendations were presented to
City Council at the March 19, 2002 Workshop Session. The Task Force
recommended meetings with major businesses that would be the
most affected before Council decides on whether or not to implement
the fee. After presentation and discussion, Council directed staff and
the 'T'ask Force to conduct meetings with those businesses to explain
all relevant aspects of the fee and to answer any questions that may
arise. This process will occur during the next few months.
The following are the next steps for possible implementation of the
Street Maintenance Fee-
• April through June 2002: Meetings with some of the commercial
entities that would be charged the most based on our fee
calculations
• July 2002: Bring back Street Maintenance Fee to Council for further
discussion and direction
• August/September 2,802: Take action to implement fee if that is
the Council direction.
The Task Force will continue to meet this calendar year to explore
alternative sources of funding for major street improvements. Potential
sources could become feasible with the implementation of the Street
Maintenance Fee. State gas tax funds freed up by the Fee could be used
to float revenue bonds or obtain a loan from the Oregon Infrastructure
Bank for the construction of major street projects.

crosswalk lighting at selected locations, and provide for installation of
new street lights on collectors and at critical intersections lacking that
lighting. These are all projects that cannot now be programmed
because of the lack of funds.
Goal I.B.
Provided information on potential bus stops and existing infrastructure
at those locations to the Community Development Department for the
review of potential transit service in the City. Will continue to work
throughout the calendar year with the Community Development
Department in providing information to support requests to Tri-Met for
intra-City service, and for enhancement of service on existing routes.
Transit Action Plan inventory and preliminary prioritization is
complete. Waiting for census data on low-income population to
finalize prioritization and analysis. Will be discussing Action Plan and
program development with Tri-Met. Anticipate bringing Action Plan to
Council for review and adoption in late Summer.
Goal I.C.
Notified ODOT of observed discrepancies or problems within the state
facilities as follows:
Reported faded striping on the Highway 217 overpass on Greenburg
Road to ODOT. ODOT responded by stating the work would be
added to their striping program. The work has not yet been
performed. We will follow up with ODOT verbally and in writing until
the problem is resolved.
Requested restriping of the crosswalk on Hall Boulevard on the
southbound approach adjacent to the Safeway store. The existing
crosswalk markings were removed when ODOT resurfaced that
intersection approach. This was requested over 3 months ago and
has been turned over to ODOT maintenance for action. The work
has not yet been performed.
■ Submitted the expansion of Hall Boulevard to 5 lanes from Highway
99W to Durham Road for the $400 ODOT bond issue. The project
was rated 16'h in the final ratings and did not make the list for
implementation. We will continue to look for opportunities to support
the upgrading of ODOT facilities such as Hall Boulevard, Highway
217 and Highway 99W.

COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY
ISSUE/AGENDA TITLE Receive and File the Annual Solid ~Waste Financial Report Findings
PREPARED BY:_ Tom Imdieke DEPT HEAD OK CITY MGR OK
l<SSt>F BEFORE THE COUNCIL
Tigard Municipal Code requires that the City Manager prepare a report to the Council by April I" on the solid
waste franchisee financial reports and propose rate adjustments, if any.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
No rate adjustment is necessary at this time based on the review of the annual reports for calendar year 2001.
INFORMATION SUMMARY
The annual solid waste financial reports have been submitted by the franchised solid waste haulers in the City of
Tigard. An aggregate report summarizing the data is attached to this summary. The aggregate rate of return for the
haulers was calculated to be 9.65 This rate falls within the acceptable range established by the Council of 8%
to 12%. Please see attached memo for further detail.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Sill Monahan, City Manager
FROM: Tom Imdieke, Financial Operations Manager
RE: Solid Waste Financial Annual Report for 2001,
DATE: March 29, 2002
As required by Tigard Municipal Code (TMC) 11.04.090, the two franchised solid waste
haulers in the City of Tigard service area have submitted their annual financial reports
for the year ending December 31, 2001. The TMC also requires the City Manager to
prepare a report to the Council by April 1 on the franchisee reports and recommend any
rate adjustments that might be required based on the review and analysis of the reports.
I have reviewed the annual financial reports and prepared an aggregate report that is
attached. The aggregate rate of return for the haulers was 9.65%.
The Council's policy on allowable rate of return provides for rate adjustments if the
aggregate profit rate falls below 8% or is over 12%. This policy assumed that the rate of
return would be calculated using the business results of all drop box activity that was
under the franchise agreement which included that portion of the drop box business
now covered under the residual solid waste ordinance. The rate of return for 2001 was
calculated using this portion of the solid waste business as well.
Therefore, based on the intent of Council policy and the calculated return of 9.65% for
the calendar year 2001, a rate adjustment would not be required at this time.

CITY OF TIGARD, OREGON
COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY
ISSUE/AGENDA TITLE Renew intergovernmental agreement for access to the Portland Police Data System _
PREPARED BY: Capt. Gaa L. Schrader DEPT HEAD OK CITY MGR OK
ISSUE BEFORE THE COUNCIL
Should the Council renew the intergovernmental agreement for access to the Portland Police Data System (PPDS)?
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Renew the agreement.
INFORMATION SUMMARY
The Portland Police Data System (PPDS) has been the records management system for the Tigard Police
Department since 1997. As a participant in a regional system, the information available to the Tigard Police is
much more extensive than that available through a single agency records system. Tigard Police crime information
is also available to other agencies, making the cooperative effort of public safety more effective.
OTHER ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED
Develop and implement a records management system for the Police Department. The cost of this alternative
would be more than the annual cost of the agreement and would provide less information to the agency.
VISION TASK FORCE GOAL AND ACTION COMMITTEE STRATEGY
Public Safety Coal #1- The community residents, business owners, and service providers will form partnerships to
effectively enhance public safety and emergency services.
ATTACHMENT LIST
Intergovernmental Agreement between the Bureau of Police, City of Portland, Oregon (Provider) and the City
of Tigard Police Department (Receiver) (3 sets of agreement)
FISCAL NOTES
The cost for the past five years has been $1400 per month. The proposed agreement increases the cost to $2480 per
month. This cost is still less than the cost to the city to develop, deploy, maintain, and store its own records
management system.

capable printers, and terminal emulation software if needed.
• All agencies and personnel entering data into PPDS must meet the quality standards
established by PPB Records Division, If additional staff training is needed, additional
charges would be incurred. (Currently, entry training is charged at $35.00 per hour.)
• Any needed facilities costs (wiring, etc.) are the responsibility of Tigard PD.
• Terminal emulation software and any other user software costs are the responsibility of
Tigard PD. Terminal emulation is not needed for ePPDS.
• If PPDS user training is desired, the cost is $400.00 per four-hour session. Approximately
eight persons can be trained per session if hands-on training is included. If training is done
in a presentation only format, there is no limit to attendees.
• Custom programming for work beyond standard requests may be available if requested at
an hourly rate. (Currently, programming is charged as $85.00 per hour.) Generally,
custom programming requires significant lead-time.

Monitoring of Summer Creek at the Summer Lake Area.
PREPARED BY: G. BMrf DEPT HEAD OK CITY MGR OK -
ISSUE BEFORE THE COUNCIL
Should City Council approve an Intergovernmental Agreement with the Watermaster to Perform Flow Monitoring
of Summer Creek at the Summer Lake Area?
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
That City Council, by motion, authorize the City Manager to sign the Intergovernmental Agreement.
INFORMATION SUMMARY
On March 13, 2001, City Council received a report and recommendations from the Summer Lake Task Force. The
purpose of the Task Force was to develop and implement a project that would enhance water quality, improve
habitat, promote fish passage and enhance Summer Lake Park. The report included a recommendation that the next
step should be collection of lake water flow and temperature data. The data will be used to evaluate the relative
effectiveness of the preferred option.
The proposed agreement would provide the information necessary to evaluate the recommended option. The
Watermaster would install and operate flow-gauging stations upstream and downstream of the lake that would
collect data from July 1, 2002 through October 31, 2002. Once the Watermaster reports the data to the City, City
staff will review the report and recommendations will be submitted to Council.
OTHER ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED
Direct staff to discontinue the project.

FOR AGENDA OF Auri123, 2002
CITY OF TIGARD, OREGON
COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY
ISSUE/AGENDA TITLE A resolution authorizing continued interim financing for the Dartmouth Street
Local Improvement District.
PREPARED BY: Craig Prosser DEPT HEAD OK CITY MGR. OK
ISSUE BEFORE THE COUNCIL
Shall the Tigard City Council authorize the issuance of a Bond Anticipation Note to provide interim financing for
the portion of the Dartmouth LID assessed to the Martins?
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval of this resolution.
INFORMATION SUMMARY
A Bond Anticipation Note (BAN) with US Bank was issued on November 30, 1998 to provide interim financing
for the portion of the Dartmouth LID assessed to the Martin property. This Note was extended on May 1, 2001.
The Martins objected to their assessment and filed a case in court. The suit has been proceeding through the courts,
and the Martins and the City are attempting to settle the case. No settlement has been reached, however, and the
BAN is due for payment on May 1, 2002.
Since the Martin suit has not been resolved, the City has not received payment from the Martins. Because the City
has not received payment from the Martins, the City does not have funds to pay off the BANS when due on May 1,
2001. Because the City does not have funds on hand to pay off the BANS on May 1, the BANS must be extended
or refinanced.
The attached resolution authorizes an extension of the BANs and authorizes the City's Finance Director to set final
terms and conditions. The resolution allows the Notes to be issued under one of two State authorizing statutes as
determined by the Finance Director. ORS 288.165 allows short-term notes to be issued for not more than 18
months. ORS 271.390 allows Notes to be issued for longer than 18 months. It may be advantageous for the City to
issue these notes for more than 18 months so that they do not have to be re-issued as often if the Martin suit is not
concluded. The BANs will be pre-payable so that they can be paid off early should the Martin suit be settled before
the new Notes mature.
OTHER ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED
There are no alternatives to this measure. If the existing BANS are not extended, they will be due and payable
on May 1, 2002, and the City does not have the funds to pay the amount due.

Sanitary Sewer Reimbursement District No. 22?
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the Local Contract Review Board, by motion, approve the contract award to Dunn
Construction, Inc. in the amount of $212,923.00.
INFORMATION SUMMARY
The proposed project would provide sewer service to 35 lots along James Court (west of Howard Drive) and
Howard Drive (between 121St Avenue and Fonner Street) through Sewer Reimbursement District No. 22 of the
Neighborhood Sewer Extension Program. Through this program, the City would install public sewer to each lot
within the Reimbursement District and the owners would reimburse the City for a fair share of the cost of the
public sewer at the time of connection to the sewer. In addition, each owner would be required to pay a
connection fee of $2,335 before connecting to the line. Each owner would also be responsible for disconnecting
the existing septic system according to County rules and any other plumbing modifications necessary to connect
to the public line. Council authorized formation of Sewer Reimbursement District No. 22 by approving
Resolution No. 02-18 on March 12, 2002.
The bid opening for the Howard Drive - Sanitary Sewer Reimbursement project was conducted on April 1,
2002. The bid results are:
Dunn Construction Portland, Oregon $212,923.00
K&R Plumbing Construction Clackamas, Oregon $218,425.00
CR Woods Trucking Sherwood, Oregon $221,781.00

PREPARED BY:--Margaret Barnes DEPT HEAD OK CITY MGR OK
ISSUE BEFORE M COUNCIL
Presentation by the New Tigard Library Construction Committee to update the City Council on the proposed new
library.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
The purpose of this presentation is to provide the City Council information about this project.
INFORMATION SUMMARY
The New Tigard Library Construction Committee continues to make presentations throughout the community
about this project. The architectural model of the proposed new library has often accompanied them. Recent
examples of the Committee's efforts to inform the community about this project include presentations at Tigard
High School, the Mayor's Blue Ribbon Task Force and local service organizations. The Committee is planning to
have the architectural model on display this next month at a variety of locations including Washington Square Mall
and the Tigard Farmer's Market.
To continue community participation in this p%xt, the Committee held a community meeting on March 5 to share
ideas for developing the site of the proposed new library. About fifty Tigard residents met with City staff to discuss
ways to design and develop the property surrounding the site located on Hall Boulevard near O'Mara Street. Ideas
ranging f -om enviropmental education programs to trail systems and paths were discussed.
This community meeting was recorded by Tualatin Valley Community Access (TVCA) and is currently playing on
channel 23.
Committee members are prepared to answer questions at this meeting.

PREPARED BY:_ Craig Prosser DEPT HEAD OK~ CITY MGR OK
ISSUE BEFORE THE COUNCIL
Information only. Report on the process and results of the joint audit of franchise fees paid by Portland General
Electric conducted by the City of Tigard and 23 other Oregon cities.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
No action required.
INFORMATION SUMMARY
In May 2001, the City of Tigard entered into an intergovernmental agreement with 23 other Oregon cities to
conduct a joint audit of PGE franchise fees. Tigard and the City of Hillsboro served as the project leads for this
effort.
The cities hired Maximus Right-of-Way Services out of Houston, Texas to conduct the audit. The auditor reviewed
PGE calculations of revenues generated within each city and PGE's calculations of revenues due off of those
revenues. Maximus, the cities, and PGE then compared databases of addresses within each city against PGE
customer databases to identify any discrepancies.
The audit revealed that there were several discrepancies in the address list and customer list databases. As a result
of these discrepancies, PGE has underpaid franchise fees to 21 cities, including the City of Tigard, and overpaid 3
cities. Final calculations of amounts owed are still in process.
Staff will report to Council on the final results of the audit, including the amount owed to the City of Tigard and
next steps that PGE and the cities intend to take to ensure that databases remain accurate.

PGE and Oregon Cities Complete Franchise Fee Audit
Tigard to receive an estimated $310,746
Portland, Ore. - Portland General Electric (PGE) and a consortium of 24 cities in the
Portland-Salem area announced today that a comprehensive audit of POE franchise fees and
privilege taxes paid to these cities has been completed.
Franchise fees represent amounts the utility pays a city government for the use of the
public rights-of-way. Public rights-of-way include streets and roads. Franchise fees and
privilege taxes are typically calculated at 3.5 to 5 percent of annual gross revenues within the
city limits. PGE currently pays more than S30 million a year in these fees to 51 Oregon cities.
In late March POE sent 200franchise payments to these cities, based on 2001 PGE revenues.
This audit by 24 cities is separate from the annual payments to cities. It included more
than 500,000 PGE customer accounts, or a majority of PGE's 738,000 customers.
"This was an opportunity for both PGE and the cities to come to the table and look at
their records, review geographical boundaries and share the results," said Craig Prosser, City of
Tigard finance director and project lead for the consortium of cities, the Local Franchise
Revenue Audit Group (LFRAG). "A lot has changed in the past few years when you consider
annexations and new construction, not to mention that utilities and cities may have entirely
different data tracking systems that assess municipal boundaries."

The cities hired Maximus, a Houston-based consulting firm, to audit POE and make an
independent assessment of the company's franchise payment records. PGE reviewed the
records as far back as 15 years ago, depending on the city.
' TWs has been one of the most cooperative audits we've ever dealt with," the Maximus
consultants said in a statement '
The LFRAG group decided to start the audit process with POE instead of other utilities
because, among other things, PGE's databases are in good condition and PGE serves the
majority of the properties within each city, Prosser said. Additionally, with'the March 1 start of
Oregon's new electricity restructuring law, cities can now select one of two ways to calcuiata.
franchise fees, so the audit was timed well with this new policy.
' f'GE went beyond the scope of the audit requirements by calculating the adjustment oft'
the individual meter records rather than an averaging method," Prosser said. "The outcome
from this extra step was a more accurate audit."
ne result of the recent audit showed that PGE was 97.5 percent accurate in its
assignment of customer addresses to the correct cities for purposes of calculating the proper fee
payments. A total adjustment of approximately $3.273 mullion will be made by PGE to the
cities, although there are a few cases in which cities owe PGE. The total adjustment amount is
about 3 percent of POE's franchise fee and privilege tax payments of $102,983,000, paid to
these 24 cities over the past five years. With the completion of this audit, PGE plans to move
forward with the remaining 27 cities it serves with a similar review.
"We've never undertaken a city-by-city audit of this magnitude before, and we've
teamed a lot from it," explained Pamela Lesh, PGE's vice president of Public Policy and
Regulatory Affairs. "We were pleased with how high our existing accuracy rate was and we
think the new technology we'll employ after this audit process will make us even more accurate
in the future."
For instance, because of the audit, PGE will now review the annexation notifications
periodically for vacant land that may be under development. The company also will employ
new research tools and invest in new technology to,more accurately track changes in city limits
and what affect they have in a certain area, such as a new subdivision.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor Jim Griffith
Tigard City Council
FROM: Craig Prossei','Finance Director
RE: PGE Franchise Fee Audit Results
DATE: April 12, 2002
The joint audit of PGE franchise fees by 24 cities led by the Cities of Tigard and
Hillsboro has finally been concluded. The City of Tigard will receive a check from PGE
in the amount of $310,746 for past franchise fee payments due. Overall, the audit
showed that PGE owes 21 cities a total of $3,347,632. Three cities were overpaid a
total of $75,407. The cities that were underpaid will receive payments by the middle of
May. PGE will work with those cities that were overpaid to refund the overpayments
through a credit against future franchise fee payments due. I will come to Council on
April 23 to give you a more complete briefing on the results of the audit.
One item that the City needs to consider at this point is how to use the money that the
City will receive as a result of this audit. We have not anticipated receipt of this money
in any of our financial projections. We therefore need to consider how to use these
funds most wisely to achieve the greatest return for the City and our citizens. I have
discussed this issue with the City Manager. We recommend that the City use these
funds for projects to identify other amounts owed to the City and projects to save energy
and reduce City costs.
We have developed the following list of possible uses. Tier I represents our highest
priorities, projects which we feel;have the greatest potential for return on the City's
investment, and projects that do not have a clearly identified alternative source of
funding. Tier II represents good projects but ones of lesser priority, lesser return on
investment, or which have alternative sources of funding. I will seek your input on these
recommendations during my briefing at the April 23 Council meeting.
PGE Franchise Payment Options
Tier
1. Set aside a portion for the next utility audit.
When we developed the PGE audit project, the 24 cities talked about this project
as the start of an ongoing, joint program to audit all city franchise holders on a
regular basis. We are now talking to the League of Oregon Cities about
sponsoring such a program. Future audits will likely be more expensive for a
variety of reasons. (Other utilities do not serve all city residents - i.e. Natural
Gas, and Qwest and Verizon records are kept in Denver and Texas.) I don't
have an estimate of the possible cost at this time, but I would suggest $20,000.
2. Set aside a portion for a Right-of-Way study.
A Right-of-Way study would look at the costs of building, maintaining, and
operating the public right-of-way and would help to attribute those costs to
specific causes (i.e. utility cuts, traffic loads, construction activity, etc.). With this
information, the City could then look at fees, charges, and other revenues to
make sure that the City is recovering those costs. I do not have an estimate of
the cost of a Right-of-Way study at this time. For planning purposes, however, I
would use $25,000.
3. Place in Facility Fund for energy conservation aspects of the conversion of the
old library building to offices and remodeling of City Hall.
If voters approve the New Library Bond, the City will convert the old library into
offices and remodel City Hall. This will be done using funds that the City has
been reserving in the Facility Fund. The balance of the PGE payment, after
items 1 and 2, should be transferred to the Facility Fund to be used for energy
savings improvements to these two buildings. This will produce continuing
savings for the City.
Tier II
4. Place in Facility Fund for energy conservation improvements to other city
buildings.
The greatest energy savings would occur in buildings with the greatest use (i.e.
City Hall and the old library). Other City buildings (Water Building, Public Works,
the Niche, etc.) would also benefit from energy conservation improvements.
Energy savings in these other facilities would probably be smaller than the larger
buildings, alternative funding sources may exist, or the buildings may be
removed or sold in the future. These factors make this item a lesser priority than
Tier I.
5. Create a General Fund Renewal and Replacement Reserve.
Major maintenance and equipment replacement can be easily predicted, and the
City should be setting aside funds for these future expenses. These items
include things such as carpet replacement, parking lot repaving, HVAC
replacement, reroofing, etc. The PGE funds could be used to establish a
Renewal and Replacement Reserve. This is a lesser priority than Tier I because
it does not generate additional revenue.
milli 1111111111E111 mimmi
6. Place in General Fund to reduce projected decline in fund balance.
The General Fund is projected to experience a declining fund balance. The PGE
.payment could be placed in the General Fund to give the fund balance a one-
time boost. This would buy the City additional time to address the underlying
causes of the declining fund balance, but it does not solve the problem.
7. Place in Facility Fund for additional "green building" aspects of the New Library.
The City plans to use "green building" construction techniques and energy
conservation measures in the New Library Building. These plans will be fully
funded though the New Library Bond.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor Jim Griif~fi4h and Tigard City Council
Prosser"Finance Director
FROM: Craig ,
RE: FY 2002-03 Budget Process Update
DATE: April 9, 2002
The City of Tigard's FY 2002-03 Budget process is rapidly approaching its climax. City
departments have been working since last fall to prepare for the upcoming Budget
Committee meetings. The City Manager's Proposed Budget will be released at the end
of April. The Budget Committee will meet the first three Monday evenings in May to
review and approve the Proposed Budget. The Budget, as approved by the Budget
Committee will be presented to the City Council on June 11 for adoption.
The FY 2002-03 Budget process began in October of 2001 with the preparation of the
City's Five Year Financial Plan/Forecast. The Financial Plan forecasts revenues and
resources available to support City programs over the next five years and compares
those resources to expected operating and capital needs. The results of this forecast
showed a downward trend in General Fund balances over the next five years due to the
downturn in the economy and the continued demand for City services.
Departments prepared FY 2002-03 Budget requests in light of the financial forecast.
Department requests were completed February 1, 2002. Departments were required to
show how they might reduce their budget requests by 5%. The Finance Department
analyzed department requests and potential reductions. The City Manager and Finance
Director met with each department director to discuss the requested budget and to
develop the City Manager's budget proposals.
The Finance Department is currently incorporating all of the City Manager's proposals
into the FY 2002-03 Proposed Budget. At the same time, the Finance Department is
updating the Financial Plan to reflect the Proposed Budget and is updating financial
forecasts in light of current economic conditions. The Proposed Budget is scheduled to
be released the last week in April.
The Tigard Budget Committee, made up of the City Council and five citizens, will meet
the first three Monday evenings in May to review and approve the Proposed Budget.
The City Manager, the Finance Director, and department directors will present the
Proposed Budget to the Budget Committee, who will review and discuss the proposals
and make any changes they feel are appropriate. All meetings of the Budget
Committee are open to the public, and public comment is invited. Meetings will be held
Mondays, May 6, May 13, and May 20 from 6:30 to 9:00 p.m. in the Tigard Water
Auditorium, 8777 SW Burnham. If needed, a fourth meeting will occur on Wednesday,
May 29, 2002.
The Budget, as approved by the Budget Committee, will be presented to the Tigard City
Council on Tuesday, June 11. The Council will convene a hearing to accept public
comment, may modify the Approved Budget (within limits established by state law), and
will then vote to adopt the Budget.

ISSUE BEFORE THE COUNCIL
To inform Council that Tigard has been designated Tree City USA by the National Arbor Day Foundation
and invite members to join Mayor Griffith in attending the Arbor Day celebration on April 26, 2002 at
Templeton Elementary School.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff would like to recommend that Council members join Mayor Griffith in attending the Arbor Day
celebration at Templeton Elementary School on April 26, 2002.
INFORMATIQNSUMMARY
On January 23, 2001 City Council gave the Department of Public Works- Parks Division permission to
pursue a Tree City USA designation. Pursuing the Tree City USA designation involves meeting four
standards outlined by the National Arbor Day Foundation. The four standards are:
1. Spend at least $2.00 per capita on the urban forestry program.
o During the 2001 calendar year Tigard spent more than $147,000 on urban forestry-related
activities which included City staff and volunteer tree plantings, site preparation, hazard tree
removals and tree pruning.
2. Celebrate Arbor Day and proclaim Arbor Day
• Arbor Day was celebrated on April 18, 2001.
a The Mayor read a proclamation and proclaimed April 18, 2001 as Arbor Day in Tigard during the
Arbor Day celebration held at C.F. Tigard Elementary School.
3. Create a Tree Board
® On January 23, 2001 the City Council approved and the Mayor signed resolution number 01-02 .
to establish a Tree Board. Applications to serve on the Tree Board were submitted by numerous
Tigard residents. We interviewed and selected applicants from citizens living in Tigard and
Planning Commission members. The Tree Board meets on the second Monday of every month.
The Tree Board is currently made up of three Tigard citizens (Jan Gorsline, Bob Tinnin and
Brooks Gaston) and one Planning Commission member (Judy Anderson).
4. Develop a Public Tree Care ordinance.
Y The ordinance was created, although it is still being reviewed by the City Attorney's office. The
final step will be for the City Council to review and approve the document.

NOTES:
• There will be four classes so we will plant four trees- 2 bigleaf maples and 2
western red cedars. The holes should be dug that morning and protected
with caution tape, cones, etc. Pam Hallvick, the school's principal, made this
suggestion. Kids will be outside close to the area of the tree planting
throughout the day.
• The kids will hopefully present the mayor with "gifts" that they made in their
classes- poems, pictures, etc regarding trees.
• The P.A. system will be on loan from Tigard Music. SOMEONE MUST PICK
IT UP THE DAY BEFORE. Whoever picks it up should get a quick lesson on
how to use it. It is a very valuable and brand new battery powered system
that is very easy to use and quite small.

CITY OF TIGARD, OREGON
COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY
ISSUE/AGENDA TITLE IGA Establishin Tualatin Basin Natural Resources Coordinatin Committee
PREPARED BY: Duane Roberts DEPT HEAD OK A&*rTYMGROK I
ISSUE BEFORE THE CO CIL
Should the City enter into an agreement with other Washington County jurisdictions and special districts to
jointly develop a protection program for Metro-identified natural resource sites located within Washington
County?
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Authorize the Mayor to sign the agreement.
INFORMATION SUMMARY
Metro is in the process of developing a plan for regional fish and wildlife protection in accordance with
Statewide Goal 5. The Metro planning process follows the Statewide Goal 5 process and includes three
steps: Inventory, ESEE (environmental, social, economic, and energy) Analysis, and Protection Plan. The
ESEE analysis involves identifying conflicts between protecting resource sites and and how they should be
resolved. This step is followed by the establishment of the protection program for the resource sites. So far,
Metro has adopted an inventory of significant riparian sites and by mid-April 2002 is scheduled to adopt an
inventory of significant wildlife sites. The target date to complete Goal 5 through the ESEE phase is August
2002. The timeline is driven by the Metro Council's need to consider the capacity consequences of a
regional fish and wildlife protection plan in order to make decisions about the region's Urban Growth
Boundary by December 31, 2002. The target date for the completion of the protection plan is sometime next
year.
In December 2000, Tigard entered into an agreement with the other County jurisdictions to form a working
group intended in inform and influence the Metro Goal 5 planning process. In late December 2002, in
response to an idea advanced by the working group, Metro Council decided to allow individual jurisdictions
and groups of jurisdictions the option of completing the remaining steps in the Goal 5 process for their
respective basins. Under this approach, Metro will establish regional parameters for conflicting uses and the
ESEE decision process, along with a timeline for the completion of the basin plan. The scope and details of
the basin approach are defined in the "Basin Approach Issues" paper attached as an exhibit to the IGA
"Establishing the Tualatin Basin Natural Resources Coordinating Committee" or TBNRCC (Exhibit 1).
The TBNRCC IGA is a cooperative agreement between local jurisdictions to form a basin group. As
described in the governance section, the group's executive committee consists of the chief elected official of
the governing body of each jurisdictional member. Each member has one vote. Meetings are open to the
public. The scope of the committee's authority includes spending money, hiring consultants, coordinating
with the Healthy Streams program, conducting hearings, and developing a protection plan for regionally-
identified natural resouces located within Washington County.
The IGA provides for the assignment rather than the delegation of land use authority. It does not give the
basin group the authority to adopt final land use decisions. Under the agreement, each individual jurisdiction
decides whether to adopt the basin protection program and retains the full range of options. Deviation from
the adopted protection plan is allowed, but proof of substantial compliance is the responsibility of the
jurisdiction making the request to Metro. Jurisdictions are required to adopt or reject proposed model
amendments implementing the basin program decisions within six months after Metro acts on the basin
program.
The City Attorney has reviewed the agreement, which originated with the Washington County Counsel, and
did not find anything in it contrary to the City's interests.
OTHER ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED
Do not adopt the agreement and do not participate in the Goal 5 basin approach.
VISION TASK FORCE GOAL AND ACTION COMMITTEE STRATEGY
The Action Plan for Growth and Growth Management Goal #1 calls for the City to "Protect natural resource
areas from the impacts of increased growth".

2. Governance
The. TBNRCC shall consist of the chief elected officer of the governing body of each
Basin government or his/her alternate from that governing body. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the member and alternate from Clean Water Services shall be a person other
than the chair and alternate representing the Washington County Board of
Commissioners on the TBNRCC. In addition, the Metro Council may appoint from
INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT FORMING THE TBNRCC
Page 2 of 7
among its members two ex-officio non-voting members to the TBNRCC. All these
appointments to the TBNRCC should be made within 30 days of the effective date of this
Agreement.
2.1 Each TBNRCC member except ex-officio members shall have one vote. A
TBNRCC meeting quorum shall consist of a majority of all voting members. The
TBNRCC shall establish bylaws setting forth meeting times and rules of procedure as it
deems necessary to carry on its business.
2.2 Meetings of the TBNRCC and its subcommittees shall be open to the public, subject
to the provisions of the Oregon Public Meetings Law.
2.3 Washington County shall provide staff services to schedule meetings, keep minutes,
administer consultant contracts, pay approved expenses and such other administrative
matters necessary to conduct TBNRCC business.
3. Funding
3.1 The estimated total cost for services needed to enable the TBNRCC and its staff to
perform the work tasks anct activities described in this Agreement will be $100,000.
There will be additional costs up to $50,000 for. public notice and public outreach. The
total costs will be shared as set forth below. Upon execution of this Agreement, as its pro
rata share contribution to this joint effort, each party to the Agreement shall pay to
Washington County an amount calculated as follows:
a. The percentage of the total current population (2000 U.S. Census) of Washington
County within incorporated and unincorporated areas shall be calculated.
b. Washington County, Clean Water Services and the Tualatin Hills Park and
Recreation District, individually, shall each pay 1/3 of the percentage of the cost
representing the total unincorporated population.
c. The percentage representing the total incorporated population shall be divided
among the signatory cities based on each respective city's population as 'a
percentage of the total incorporated population.
Based on the above, Exhibit B attached hereto specifies the amount each party is to
contribute for services and for public notice and outreach.
3.2 Washington County shall separately account for the funds and provide appropriate
documentation as reasonably requested by the TBNRCC or any individual TBNRCC
member.
3.3 If the initial $100,000 plus $50,000 for public notification and outreach costs is
insufficient to complete the TBNRCC tasks described -in this Agreement, the TBNRCC,
by 2/3 majority vote of the Committee members, may authorize additional expenditures
without action by the governing bodies of the members. - If additional expenditures are
authorized, the TBNRCC shall calculate the additional amount of funds needed from
INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT FORMING THE TBNRCC
Page 3 of 7
each party to the Agreement, based on the formula in item 3.1 above, and request
payment of such additional amount from each party to complete the tasks. At that time a
party may elect to withdraw from the TBNRCC rather than contribute such additional
funds to the project. If a party withdraws pursuant to this Section or Section 6, any
excess funds already contributed by that party shall not be returned to the withdrawing
party unless the TBNRCC determines that such a refund is equitable and appropriate. If
unexpended funds remain after completion of the TBNRCC tasks described in this
Agreement, each party shall receive a share of such unexpended funds proportional to its
contribution.
4. Other members
The TBNRCC may permit additional local governments to join as full-members or as
non-voting associate members. Additional full voting members shall make pro-rata
contributions as described in Paragraph 3, and the contributions of all full voting
members shall be adjusted accordingly.
5. Responsibilities of Participating TBNRCC Members
5.1 Each Basin government-member shall contribute, at its own reasonable expense, such
staff work, documents and other resources as may reasonably be requested by the
TBNRCC in order to carry out the TBNRCC's responsibilities, and its own
responsibilities under this Agreement. Each Basin government shall cooperate fully with
the TBNRCC during the performance of these responsibilities.
5.2 The TBNRCC shall work generally to implement the "'Tualatin Basin Approach"
attached hereto as Exhibit A. The TBNRCC shall provide opportunities for public
involvement, conduct a Tualatin Basin Goal 5 ESEE analysis, and formulate a
coordinated Goal 5 Program for regionally significant Goal 5 resources within the
jurisdictions of Basin governments for resources identified id the riparian corridor and
wildlife habitat inventories accepted by the Metro Council. It shall submit its analyses
and decisions on these matters to Metro for consideration.
5.3 If Metro includes these TBNRCC decisions in its adopted functional plan provisions
in substantially the same form as submitted by the TBNRCC, the city and county Basin
governments shall initiate, provide notice, and hold hearings on proposed ordinances
amending their comprehensive plans and land use regulations to implement the Metro
functional plan components submitted by the TBNRCC. Each city and county Basin
government will conclude hearings and adopt, adopt with amendments, or reject the
proposed ordinances to amend comprehensive plans and land use regulations within 180
days after the Metro Council's final decision adopting the TBNRCC decisions as part of
the Metro functional plan. Each Basin government shall take final action adopting or
rejecting any other program or regulation necessary to implement the adopted Metro
functional plan provisions submitted by the TBNRCC within 180 days after the Metro
Council's final decision, or as soon as possible thereafter if its charter or other notice and
hearing requirements prevent final action within 180 days. Nothing in this Agreement or
INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT FORMING THE TBNRCC
Page 4 of 7
the Metro-TBNRCC IGA shall obligate any Basin government to adopt the proposed
ordinances or other programs or regulations necessary to implement the adopted Metro
functional plan provisions. However, each Basin government shall adopt findings
explaining its decision to reject or vary from ordinances, programs, or other actions
necessary to implement the adopted Metro functional plan provisions submitted by the
TBNRCC. Failure to adopt ordinances or other programs or actions necessary to
implement the Metro functional plan provisions submitted by the TBNRCC may result in
a determination by Metro that plans or land use regulations do not substantially comply
with the Metro functional plan.
6. Term
The Agreement shall terminate on June 30, 2004, unless terminated earlier or extended
by action of the governing bodies of a 2/3 majority of Basin governments that are then

EXHIBIT `A'
Tualatin Basin Approach
1/30/02 Draft
What The basin approach is a proposal that local governments take responsibility as
described in Steps 1 and 2, below, within the greater part of the Tualatin River basin for
the next phases (ESEE and program development) of the region's fish and wildlife
habitat program, subject to coordination with, and final product approval by, the Metro
Council. Riparian corridors and wildlife habitat determined to be regionally significant
consistent with State Goal 5, and Clean Water Act requirements and Endangered Species
Act listings would all have to be addressed in a basin approach.
Where The basin proposal could apply to any large whole watershed within the region,
if approved by Metro. For the Tualatin Basin, the general geographic extent is that area
draining the Tualatin River. The basin consists of areas inside of the current Metro urban
growth boundary and Metro jurisdictional boundary, Metro UGB alternatives analysis
areas and rural, farm and forest lands beyond. Regional resources determined by Metro,
potential regional resources identified in areas studied by Metro in its UGB Alternatives
Analysis and the rural, farm and forest lands beyond identified by Washington County as
significant resources shall be;addressed in the Tualatin Basin Approach.
Who Currently, a consortium of local governments including the cities of Beaverton,
Cornelius, Durham, Forest Grove, Hillsboro, King City, Sherwood, Tigard and Tualatin,
as well as Washington County, Clean Water Services and Tualatin Hills Parks and
Recreation District have expressed a willingness to address the Tualatin Basin. Inclusion
of, or coordination with, other jurisdictions with responsibilities within the Tualatin Basin
such as Clackamas County and the cities of Lake Oswego and Portland are underway.
Individual property owners, interest groups, local government advisory committees and
other interested parties would also be provided opportunities to participate during this
work effort. In addition, Metro would participate in the Basin Approach through Council
representation on the Tualatin Basin Coordinating Committee, through project updates
to, and feedback from the Natural Resource Committee, MPAC, MTAC, Goal 5 TAC,
WRPAC, and through the Metro staff. The Metro Council woald make recommendations
about the ESEE decision to delineate areas to "prohibit" or "limit' conflicting uses and
make the final decision about whether a basin approach met regional standards after
consultation with its advisory committees.
Why The Basin Approach proposal has been made in part because of a concurrent,
joint efforts by the Tualatin Basin governments, the Washington County Clean Water
Services and others to address Federal Clean Water Act requirements and Endangered
Species Act listings that likely will affect the same areas as Metro's fish and wildlife
habitat protection plan. In addition to reducing the number of times that the same areas
are analyzed and public outreach provided and applying more detailed information than is
readily available region-wide, this Basin Approach allows for coordination among
similar, but distinct Federal, State and regional requirements. The basin approach can
also provide local governments with an opportunity to shape a basin-wide program that is
tailored to local conditions within the Tualatin River basin while addressing regional
1
Goal 5 objectives. Because the Basin Approach is proposed as being completed
concurrently with Metro's regional tasks, the Tualatin Basin is most likely to be
implemented sooner than other portions of the region if the non-basin jurisdictions wait
for the Metro regional safe harbor to be completed and acknowledged by the state before
they begin local implementation tasks.
When The basin proposal would complete this work parallel to the rest of Metro's fish
and wildlife habitat program region-wide. Both the region's work effort as well as the
Basin Approach work products would be timed to allow for Metro Council consideration
of the data and likely capacity consequences of a regional fish and wildlife protection
plan in order to make decisions about the region's urban growth boundary by December
31, 2002. To accomplish this, materials defining the impact on the UGB buildable land
inventory would need to be readied by Metro staff by August 1, 2002. The Tualatin
Basin Approach has proposed to meet Metro's decision timeline. The Tualatin Basin
Coordinating Committee would formally provide a Basin Approach timeline and work
completion schedule.
How The basin approach will be accomplished by setting goals and standaids~,
providing legal structure for coordination, establishing a process and monitoring and
evaluation.
Goals. The adopted Regional Framework Plan states that.the region shall manage
watersheds to protect, restore and ensure to the maximum extent practicable the integrity
of streams, wetlands and floodplains, and their multiple biological, physical and social
values. Metro's fish and wildlife vision articulates the overriding goal of the Basin
Approach:
"The overall goal is to conserve, protect and restore a continuous ecologically
viable streamside corridor system, from the streams' head, vaters to their
confluence with other streams and rivers, and with their floodplains in a manner
that is integrated with the surrounding urban landscape. This system will be
achieved through conservation, protection and appropriate restoration of
streamside corridors through time."
Br►provement of habitat health within each of the Region's 27 hydrologic units including
the eleven hydrologic units inside the Tualatin Basin shall be a primary objective of the
Basin Approach. The following objectives within Metro's Fish and Wildlife Habitat
Vision Staicn. ant shall be pursued by the Basin Approach: to sustain and enhance native
fish and wildli species and their habitats; to mitigate high storm flows and maintain
adequate sump :er flows; to provide clean water; and to create communities that fully
integrate the built and natural environment. The region wide system of linked significant
fish and wildlife habitats will be achieved through preservation of existing resources and
restoration to recreate critical linkages, as appropriate and consistent with ESEE
conclusions about whether to prohibit, limit or allow conflicting uses within a regionally
significant resource site. Avoiding any future ESA listings is another primary Basin
2
Approach objective. The sentences quoted above from the Vision Statement as the
overall goal shall be the goal against which the Tualatin Basin Approach will be
reviewed. Objectives cited above provide additional guidance as to how the Tualatin
Basin Approach should be completed and an intergovernmental agreement between the
consortium and Metro will provide additional working details.
Legal Structure. Intergovernmental agreements will be used to ensure Basin Approach
coordination among the affected local governments, and Metro. In addition, staff level
memoranda of understanding will be used to assure coordination between consortium
members, Metro and those relevant jurisdictions not directly participating in the Tualatin
Basin Approach.
Process. The Metro-Tualatin Basin Approach coordination process would have two-
steps. The first step would be a check-in by the Tualatin Basin Approach with Metro
before making ESEE decisions for the Basin for Metro input and advice. The second step
would be Metro Council review of Basin Approach program recommendations and
determination of program conformance with the Basin Approach review criteria
described above. In addition, ongoing coordination between the Tualatin Basin
Approach staff and Metro staff would occur as work on the Basin Approach proceeds. A
public involvement plan meeting the region's goals for providing substantial
opportunities for participation by the public would be completed for the region (including
how the Tualatin Basin would be addressed) after coordination with the Metro
Committee on Citizen Involvement.
Step 1. The ESEE Decision. Metro, local governments and other interested parties will
work to establish a regional ESEE method. One.possible method would be to design
regional ESEE parameters for application within 27 hydrologic units throughout the
Region. The Tualatin Basin would develop basin-wide and local ESEE parameters for
the Tualatin Basin. Both sets of ESEE parameters shall guide the identification.of areas
for prohibiting, limiting or allowing conflicting uses within the Tualatin Basin. The
results of applying these parameters within the Basin would be mapped.
This map could be constructed for the entire region, using the. selected regional ESEE
parameters and the mapped results of the Tualatin Basin Approach ESEE analysis,
further informed by any other local considerations. This information would be used for
two purposes. First, it would provide the foundation of the ESEE decision. Second, the
reap could also be used to estimate the influence of the region's fish and wildlife habitat
program on the housing and job capacity calculations for the region's periodic review of
its urban growth boundary. The Tualatin Basin ESEE decision about which areas to
prohibit, limit or allow conflicting uses within the Tualatin Basin would be made by the
local participating governments, through the Tualatin Basin Natural Resource
Coordinating Committee, after consideration of public comments, including Metro
Council input and recommendations.
3
Step 2 Program Design and Adoption. Region-wide, Metro will prepare a regional
Goal 5 program (regional safe harbor, riparian district plan and local discretionary review
options) for the entire region which, for the Tualatin Basin, would reflect the program
developed through the Basin Approach. Regional and Basin program elements, including
incentives, acquisition, education and regulatory tools would then be prepared. The
region would prepare its regional safe harbor, riparian district plan specifications and the
local discretionary review options. The Tualatin Basin, would design its program. For
example, the Tualatin Basin Approach could include, but would not be limited to the
following kinds of program elements:
* Revised and new land use "goal 5 overlay" mapped areas and new regulatory
language for all land use authorities within the Basin;
Clean Water Services (CWS) Design & Construction standards (possible revisions);
• Review and possible revisions to CWS maintenance programs (possibly maintenance
programs for all jurisdictions including park district);
Identification and prioritization of restoration sites and financial plan
("Environmental CIP");
* Coordination with Metro Greenspaces program for targeted acquisitions; and
* Possible incorporation of"grpen street" optional standards into all local codes
(project currently underway being funded by Tualatin Valley Water Quality
Endowment Fund)
After taking public testimony, the Tualatin Basin would forward a recommended
program to Metro. After its own review process using agreed upon review standards, the
Metro Council would determine whether the Basin Approach substantially complies and
whether to approve the Tualatin Basin Approach.
Monitoring and Evaluation. Metro Code requires that performance measures be used to
evaluate the success and effectiveness of its functional plan to realize regional policies.
In addition, the National Marine Fisheries Service 4(d) rule calls for monitoring and
evaluation. After local programs have been enacted and some time period passes to allow
for programs to take hold, Metro should evaluate its policies and their implementation to
compare goals with actual outcomes. If a basin approach significantly lagged region-wide
efforts, as a last resort, regional safe harbor provisions could be applied to the basin area
until a basin approach is completed and approved by the Metro Council.

TO Tualatin Basin Natural Resources Coordinating Committee
FROM Brent Curtis, Planning Manager
Land Use and Transportation
SUBJECT: Goal 5 Project Cost Estimates
At the March 18th, 2002 meeting of the Tualatin Basin Natural Resources Coordinating
Committee, staff presented the draft Intergovernmental Agreement designed to formally
establish the TBNRCC, delegate specific authority to that Committee and to provide needed
funding for completion of the Tualatin Basin Goal 5 project. After the discussion of this item, the
Committee requested that staff provide a written description of the project funding element of
that presentation. Following is a general review of the project funding breakdown and related
justification as discussed at that meeting:
In developing the draft IGA forming the TBNRCC, it was initially thought that we should allocate
$100,000 to the project and either determine how to complete the project within the limits of that
amount, or to return later with an amendment to the IGA to increase funding. Following a
number of discussions with members of the Steering Committee, it was recommended that we
attempt to address all potential project costs in advance and avoid returning for further funding.
A key point in those discussions focused on the importance of a thorough public involvement
program and the need to go beyond the minimum notification requirements. The need to
'extend beyond the minimum' is based on the fact that the success or failure of any public
process will often hinge on whether all potentially affected parties have had an adequate
opportunity to be involved and to develop a reasonable understanding of the potential impacts of
that process. With this thought in mind, the Steering Committee reviewed the tasks ahead and
considered related costs as discussed below.
Once Metro has completed the inventory of regionally significant resources, there will be two
primary tasks remaining to be completed. These tasks are: 1) the ESEE analysis
(documentation of the Economic, Social, Energy and Environmental consequences of either
protecting a designated resource or allowing conflicting uses to develop; and 2) the
development of a 'Program' designed to 'allow' or 'limit' conflicting uses or fully protect the
resource (the implementation phase of the project). These tasks are expected to require
technical assistance and legal review by a team of consultants that have experience with the
development of local Goal 5 programs. Beyond the expertise offered by staff of the participating
local governments, the project Steering Committee will likely require the assistance of
economists, wetlands ecologists, wildlife biologists ...etc. to complete both the ESEE and the
Program phases of the project. With the understanding that we will not actually know how much
of this technical assistance will be required until the project tasks are well underway, the
Steering Committee has recommended the following funding allocations: $60,000 for planning
and technical services, $25,000 for legal services (including the current costs in developing
Intergovernmental Agreements), and $15,000 of contingency funds.
During the discussions on public involvement, the Steering Committee developed rough
estimates of the costs of doing the notification element of a public involvement program. Since
==Ed
the precise number of notices that would be required was unknown, the Steering Committee
developed both minimum and maximum estimates of the properties that would potentially be
affected by the Metro decision on regionally significant Goal 5 resources. These estimates were
then converted to general cost estimates which ranged from just under $14,000 on the low side
to approximately $18,000 on the high side. For budgetary purposes it was determined that the
safest approach would be to assume the broadest possible distribution and use the $18,000
estimate as the guide to determining notification costs. The Steering Committee has advised
Metro of the minimum public notification that would be appropriate and has proposed mailing of
2 notices to potentially affected property owners within and immediately surrounding the Goal 5
resources identified by Metro and to rural areas of the Basin. The first of these 2 notices would
be sent during the preliminary ESEE work phase (currently underway), with the second notice
scheduled for distribution prior to the start of public hearings on the program development phase
which would likely begin sometime in the late fall of 2002.
The Steering Committee is recommending an appropriation of $50,000 to be applied to the
Public Involvement process. These funds would generally be allocated in the following manner:
1) two direct mailings to property owners at an estimated cost of $18,000 each (totaling
$86,000), and 2) $14,000 earmarked for a variety of public outreach efforts which would
potentially include: open houses, WEB site development, project information mailers, public
opinion surveys, neighborhood and/or community level meetings ...etc.
The following table outlines the distribution of project funds as currently envisioned:

INFORMATION SUMMARY
On January 23, 1996, Council received a financial bequest in the amount of $100,000 from US Bank Trust
Group on behalf of a Tigard citizen. The bequeth was accepted by Council Resolution 96-05. The terms of
the trust identified that the money should be used by the City for the purchase and development of parks.
3'he Cook Park Expansion Master Plan, which was adopted unanimously by Council on June 10th, 1997,
identified the need for protecting, creating, and enhancing wetlands in natural areas. In the landscape design
for Cook Park Expansion Master Plan Phase I, we designated a natural feature area, the Cook Park Butterfly
Garden. The construction of Phase I development which included the Butterfly Garden, was completed in
November of 2001. The construction cost of the Butterfly Garden was $68,290 with the remaining amount
of $31,710 being applied towards the cost of construction of the wetland viewing gazebo.
The content of the information provided regarding the plants in the Butterfly Garden will be presented in the
power point presentation that is attached to the summary.
