TIGARD CITY COUNCIL MEETING
JANUARY 6, 2006
Mayor Dirksen called the meeting to order at 12:19 p.m.
Council Present: Mayor Dirksen; Councilors Harding, Sherwood, Wilson, and Woodruff.
2006 Goal-Setting Discussion
City Manager Prosser reviewed materials submitted to the City Council to assist in the goal-
setting discussion. Materials included:
• 2005 City Council Goal Status Summary
• Departmental summaries of accomplishments for the year
• Volunteer report
• The Capital Improvement Program Progress Report for the 2005 Calendar Year
Council members proceeded with a brainstorming session, with each member suggesting
goals for 2006. (Recorder's Note: Attached is the proposed final 2006 City Council Goals
list submitted for Council approval at its January 24, 2006, business meeting.)
Below are highlights of the City Council discussion:
• Revise Comprehensive Plan - complete the draft by the end of the year. Notation
that the Plan is 25 years; identify where it is obsolete.
• Improve relationship and communication with citizens - implement the new
neighborhood program.
• Implement the Downtown Plan - add specifics of what is to be implemented in
2006; identify projects such as a public gathering place in the downtown. The City
Council can support the ballot measure and Council members decided they would
work to get the ballot measure passed and to support the political action committee.
• Improve 99W corridor. Projects in 2006 would include the implementation of the
Transportation Growth Management Study and improvements to the Greenburg
and Hall Boulevard intersections.
• Stabilize the Financial Picture as the City Council receives the Financial Strategy
Task Force report followed by appropriate City Council action. City Council
members also noted the importance of continuing to control costs.
• City Council members considered the potential goal to "address growth on the
western border." After discussion, City Council decided the goal should be stated in
terms for clarification of the City's position on the provision of urban services to
unincorporated areas and to protect the interests of the citizens of Tigard.
• Long-range water decisions will be necessary in 2006.
COUNCIL MINUTES -JANUARY 6, 2006 page 1
• Build skate park. There was discussion on whether this should be a subsection of a
goal and it was placed under the broader goal of Implementing the Downtown Plan.
• Consider opportunities to make major greenspaces purchases. After discussion,
City Council members decided to add specific activities including purchasing first-
refusal options and to explore property exchanges with the School District.
• City Council discussed long-term water options including the joint Water
Commission, City of Portland, and Lake Oswego.
• Comprehensive Plan Review and Revision. There was discussion about:
o High-tech development in the region - Tigard is in the center of this activity
(i.e., Washington Square, Lincoln Center, Kruse Way).
o Analyze trends.
o Determine where current Code is obsolete. Define economic patterns and
strategies.
o Understand the economic trends and define what kind of City we want to
become.
o City staffing includes one-half FTE for an urban renewal planner and one-
half FTE for economic development.
.o Develop an economic assessment of existing conditions and opportunities
o The Comprehensive Plan sets out a vision for the City - a hierarchy of
purposes.
o Consider design standards.
• Address growth on the western border of the City, which will involve more than the
Comprehensive Plan Review (i.e., intergovernmental agreements, policies, Area
63/64).
• At this time unincorporated Bull Mountain area is not in the Comprehensive Plan
Review.
• There was a suggestion to include up to 150`h Street in the Comprehensive Planning
Review; however, there was a question as to whether the City would have the
authority to include this property. Another suggestion was to keep the area outside
the City limits as a separate issue while the City Council works out some of the
policy issues.
• There was discussion on the original policy for the urban services area noting the
changes in the "political landscape." Original policy clearly states that it was
anticipated that the City boundaries would extend to the current urban growth
boundary. The position on the urban services area needs to be clarified. Discussed
protecting the public's interest.
• There appears to be no mechanism to bring areas 63 and 64 into the City of Tigard.
• Referred to Senate Bill 122 directing cities and counties to address areas within the
urban growth boundary to determine how urban services would be provided; who
would be the ultimate service provider.
• There was a suggestion to do a comprehensive survey to tie together some of the
other smaller surveys.
• There was discussion about the continued improvement of the City's committee
system. It was suggested that sign up sheets provide a space so people can indicate
if they would be interested in serving on a board or committee (develop a resource
file).
COUNCIL MINUTES -JANUARY 6, 2006 page 2
• Utilize the library to get messages out.
• Promote the City's web page.
• Communication is two-way; suggested focus be on those who want to be part of the
communication process. Another comment was the desire to hear from the
"average" person as well as activists.
• Involve the Citizens for Community Involvement and the Neighborhood groups.
• Past surveys included: Library services; Citizens Academy program.
• Make public notices for land use more visible; include a telephone number so more
information could be obtained if desired.
• Progress in communication has included the 5`h Tuesday meetings and the use of the
City's website.
• Suggested that a recognition event be planned for the Neighborhood program.
• Discussed CPO's and the request to the County to restructure this program.
• Discussed City's relationship with schools, with the comment made that the mission
of the City is not education. Continue to work on two-way communication and
cooperate with the schools where the two jurisdictions' missions overlap.
Meeting recessed at 2:09 p.m.
Meeting reconvened at 2:29 p.m.
• Reviewed the Transportation Growth Management Grant process.
• On March 4 there is a CPO 4B and 4K symposium on 99W. There was a request
for the City of Tigard to attend. More information is needed.
• A request was made for a Police report on activity on Bull Mountain.
• Add the Greenburg Road and Hall Boulevard intersection projects to the 99W goal.
• Reference made to performance audits for major expenditure programs - setting the
budget and "sticking to it."
• Discussion on how capital projects are carried forward from one fiscal year to the
next when projects have not been completed. Suggestion that draft Capital
Improvement Program identify projects not completed, but funded.
• Discussed how the City invests money as required by law.
Discussed contingency funding for projects. Generally, the City sets aside 10-20
percent as contingency for projects.
• Discussed long-term financial picture. Budget is always balanced; however, a
number of desired programs and projects cannot be done.
• Metro dollars might be available for park/greenway purchases. The Parks and
Recreation Advisory Board is evaluating opportunities and options for
park/greenway purchases.
• Additional discussion on urban services area and whether the City might want to
consider that the boundaries of the City of Tigard are set; however, the other
viewpoint includes concerns by those who do not wasn't to see further use of City
services by people who have not paid for them. There was a suggestion that the
cities of Washington County come together on this issue and present a united
message to the County.
• City Council members agreed that the City map showing only the City boundaries
(not the urban growth boundary) be used as the City of Tigard map.
COUNCIL MINUTES -JANUARY 6, 2006 page 3
• The County adopted the City of Tigard Development Code, in a public process,
when the City and County entered the urban services agreements.
• Briefly discussed the requirements for forming a new City. Feasibility study is being
conducted for formation of a new City on Bull Mountain.

Council Goal Suggestions from the
Intergovernmental Water Board:
Sent: Friday, December 23, 2005 1:39 PM
FROM: Bill Scheiderich
Subject: RE: Council Goal setting,
Here goes:
"The Council should take a leadership position on the source(s) for the city's
long term water supply." It seems that city government has been hobbled by
indecision since the vote on the charter amendment - something I was in a
position to derail at the time by challenging the woefully inadequate ballot title,
but chose not to - and I really believe the time has come to get the charter
limitation out of the way, namely, by putting a measure on the May ballot to
coincide with TVWD's measure (as the voters would be informed that TVWD
supplies a major portion of the city right now).
I'd be pleased to serve on a committee to either draft the ballot measure or
voter's pamphlet explanatory statement, or both. Thanks.
Library Board Goals to Council
Restore and maintain operation (hours) of the library.
At a minimum, retain the existing 55 hours per week with the goal of restoring
hours to 60 open hours per week, the minimum state standard to adequately
serve a community the size of Tigard. Determine if Tigard residents are satisfied
with the existing number of open hours.
Green space acquisition by tying the library to the community.
Include library and grounds as part of urban renewal in terms of promoting it to
the public. The Fanno Creek Trail should. be considered an extension of the
improvements in the downtown area. Promote the green spaces near the library
as an example of the attempt to maintain a natural environment near a
progressive downtown. "Just a few blocks from downtown, people will be able to
picnic in the park and view birds of prey, waterfowl and other wildlife in the heart
of Tigard."
Promoting/informing the community of all Citywide services.
For example, the library should be an active partner in the city's urban renewal
effort. Both as a disseminator of information about urban renewal and other city
services, as well as a meeting place for city-related activities, the library can
actively assist in the city's communication efforts. It can also be a storehouse of
information on community goals, activities, projects that can be accessed when
City Hall is not open or by those who do not have access to the Web.
MEMORANDUM December 1, 2005
Mayor and City Council
Tigard, OR 97223
Re: Suggested 2006 Park and Recreation Goals for the City of Tigard
Based on the work of the Park and Recreation Advisory Board, the public
testimony that was received by that Board, input from Staff, and the results of
citywide surveys, four main goals were identified goals that the City should
pursue in 2006. It is suggested that:
1) The City of Tigard develops a Recreation Division to offer recreation
programming for youth, teens, and adults.
2) The City of Tigard develops non-park recreation facilities (Community
Recreation Center).
3) The City of Tigard financially supports the development and construction of a
public skateboard park.
4) The City of Tigard continues to look for ways to acquire active park space and
protect green space inside its urban growth boundary.
The Park and Recreation Advisory Board will do everything it can to assist City
Council and City of Tigard staff in these efforts.
Here's to a great 2006!
Regards,
Carl R. Switzer
Chairman, Park and Recreation Advisory Board

Council Goal Suggestions from the Planning Commission:
1. Continue to support infrastructure and other Downtown Plan:issues with
the Capital Improvement Program.
2. Update the Comprehensive Plan.
3. Adopt Development Code changes proposed by the Planned Development
Review Committee.
4. Work with our legislators to eliminate the "double majority" requirement
on annexation so that the law will be consistent statewide.
5. Until annexation of the Unincorporated Urban Services Areas occur,
request Metro to institute an Urban Services Equalization (USE) fee in the
URB areas to recompense the cities in the Metro boundary for the services
they provide to the residents of the URB areas.
6. Reexamine the policy of allowing non-residents and non-City property
owners on City Boards and Committees - this should be a function of
stakeholders only.

SUBJECT: Tigard Youth Advisory Council Suggestions for 2006 City Council Goals
At their December 7 meeting the Youth Advisory Council discussed areas they felt
important to youth for City Council to consider as goals for 2006. Consensus of the
group was to forward two suggested goals to the City Council:
1. The Mayor and Council members connect with students more - go have
lunch at the schools, wander the halls between classes and talk to
students, attend school events (games, plays, etc.) so that students know
their City councilors.
2. Focus on the Skate Park and Recreation.

January 5, 2006
Enclosure: Memo to Council re: Council Goals 2006
Carl S. suggests:
1) Improve transportation facilities for all modes
2) Improve Tigard's Livability (Parks and Recreation, civic buildings, street art, etc.)
3) Engage Tigard residents in City affairs,
Mike S. suggests:
I think we should be thinking of three things that will show the whole Tigard community the start of work or
progress in the Downtown area..I understand that little funding will be available for this at this time, but we
should tie in with anything TriMet.is doing for the Commuter Rail and also any funding that is already planned
in the area (redo of Burnham Street).
1) Signage at the entrances or gateways to the Downtown area - identifying the region for everyone who comes
in the area.
2) Start to redo Main Street - begin by redoing one intersection on Main Street as an example of what will be
coming in the future years (possibly at the intersection of Burnham Street to tie in with existing Burnham
redo or Tigard Street). Use planters on the side of the road and concrete crossings to identify the walking
areas.
3) Redo Burnham Street - with existing road funding, but be aware of future needs of the street (access to
future waterfront park, back side access to Commuter Rail parking, possible extension of Ash across
railroad tracks). I presume these funds are already allocated.
Jim A. suggests:
l) I still want to put the "Implementation of the TDIP" as the number one priority with the projects noted
previously. I don't want these projects to slip through the "cracks".
2) There is a concern for the lack of continuity between the various task force, committees, sub comities, etc.
and the city. So far there has been little continuity. New city staff appear during each "phase" with little
understanding of the previous work of an earlier "phase". It feels like we are always going backwards or
educating new staff on issues or areas already discussed. Maybe this is how the system must work when
dealing with the city, but I am nervous that the knowledge gained by staff during one phase is not being
continued to the next. I don't know how this is made into a goal, I just know that I see this as an issue the
City needs to resolve. Maybe the city should have a project coordinator who is the "Liaison" and is attached
to the various committees, groups and can keep the committees and the city up to speed on projects and
provide specific answers to questions, etc. I still have not received an answer to my e-mail to the mayor.
Someone from the city needs to get a grip on the big picture and provide answers.
3) From my limited understanding of the city and its financial situation I do not know how to make this a
specific goal. If there is a shortfall in the near future, then by all means there should be some accountability.
An audit may be the way to understand and head off the shortfall. So my third goal would be a performance
audit.
January 5, 2006 Page 2
Enclosure: Memo to Council re: Council Goals 2006
Gretchen B. suggests:
1) Move ahead with the Comprehensive Plan update. It is critical both for downtown and the City as a whole.
Quite frankly, I think that this is the critical issue for the City. It incorporates planning, transportation and
urban renewal.
2) Annexation of the City's urban growth area.
Roger P. suggests:
My suggestion regarding 2006 Council Goals are to keep the first 2 goals of the 2005 list, subject to adding one
additional "bullet point" to each goal (as set forth below). I further recommend that the 3rd goal from 2005
("Address Growth") be replaced with: "Define solution(s) to Tigard's looming fiscal crisis."
So, here is what my suggestions look like:
1) Revitalize Downtown*
Complete and implement the Downtown Plan
Urban renewal implementation
Public relations plan and vote
Identify and begin projects
* (New Additional Bullet Point) "Establish and codify building design guidelines and make
them enforceable under local ordinance."
2) Improve 99W*
Identify specific projects to alleviate congestion on 99W
Prioritize projects/funding
Leverage additional funding
* (New Additional Bullet Point) "Improve communication and coordination with ODOT and
Washington County in regard to traffic plan design and implementation."
3) Define solution(s) to Tigard's looming fiscal crisis.
Carolyn B. suggests:
1) I would like the council's last year's goals to show some sign of being done. Improving downtown was one
of their goals and I don't see anything we can point at yet. It will be important for the public perception of
what we want with Urban Renewal.
2) I would like another entrance or exit from the commuter rail station made a top priority. I really dread that
train going on line without this being taken care of first. We need the public to see we are ready for this
train.
3) I would like the council as a whole to make a definite public impression of cooperation with citizens. Their
image to the public will be a driving force in the attempt to get Urban Renewal. I don't want the public to
feel bullied. I guess that's the best I can do right now with everything being so scattered for me. I am anxious
to see how everyone else did their suggestions.
January 5, 2006 Page 3
Enclosure: Memo to Council re: Council Goals 2006
Alice E-G. suggests:
My suggested goals are related, but I offer them separately as they require different types of efforts.
1) Acquire parkland/open space land. Specifically, Fowler Woods, which is the only large tract left & is in
danger of being sold off by the School District. I encourage Council to IMMEDIATELY begin dialogue to
acquire this tract. Fowler Woods is already in a sort of public ownership; Tigard should do everything
possible to secure this site. In my view this is a huge priority as City Council has already stated interest in
large parcels. Other than Fred Fields' property, I know of no others. Both are regionally significant riparian
&/or upland habitat deserving of creative and Herculean efforts.
2) Prioritize identifying park/open space land that could be purchased with assistance from Metro per the
upcoming bond measure. Both of the above properties would be of interest to Metro; if there are others they
should be identified now so we are not once more unprepared to move if/when funds are available.
Mike M. suggests:
1) Accelerated implementation of Downtown Improvement Plan with emphasis on Burnham Street and Ash
Avenue (Burnham to Commercial Street)
Burnham Street has been in need of reconstruction for years. And with the pending arrival of the
Commuter Rail, the Ash Avenue extension to the parking lot is imperative, setting the stage for the rail
crossing continuation to Commercial Street (begin conversations with railroad about crossing rights and
consolidation of Tiedeman and North Dakota).
2) Comprehensive Plan Update
This plan is in need of significant updates and, considering the number of growth/improvement factors
facing Tigard, it is imperative that Tigard be prepared for it.
3) Long term financial plan with performance audits of major expenditure programs prior to consideration of
levies or fees
Being a member of the Financial Strategy Task Force, I am aware of the long term financial concerns of
the City. With strong consideration to conducting performance audits in major expense programs first,
the City needs to stay focused on the possibilities for additional funds in the future.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Dennis Koellermeier, PW Director
FROM: Dan Plaza, Parks and Facilities Manager
RE: Goal Report requested by Craig Prosser
DATE: January 6, 2006
- High points for the near.
The City of Tigard conducted an evaluation process aimed at identifying and acquiring
property for park and greenway use. The potential properties were identified by the
PRAB, Tigard citizens and City staff. Forty-seven (47) properties belonging to
approximately forty (40) property owners were identified. Eighteen (18) properties were
subsequently removed by property owners. Ultimately, twenty-nine (29) properties were
evaluated by the City.
The City completed its evaluation of the potential properties, and a "willing seller" analysis is
currently underway. Once "willing sellers" are identified the City will determine which properties to
pursue, and efforts to purchase certain properties will begin.
Specific accomplishments.
As a result of the evaluation process, the City is considering 22 greenway spaces and 4 "active
park" sites which can provide recreational features such as playgrounds, basketball courts, picnic
shelters, etc.
The Council approved and adopted an FY 2005-2006 budget which contains budget allocations
totaling approximately $2,000,000 to purchase park and open space property
Outstanding work items to be completed
As stated above, a "willing seller" analysis is currently being conducted. Once we know which
property owners are willing to sell their property the City's Legal Counsel and/or Property
Acquisition Representative will begin negotiations to secure the identified property. Acquisition of
property can be done in a short period of time or may take upwards to a year to finalize agreement

COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT
2005 YEAR END REPORT
Long Range Planning
Downtown
Council maintains its long standing goal of supporting the Downtown/Central Business
District. Two guiding principles of City Council are that the Downtown Plan be
community-supported and financially sound. The Tigard Downtown Improvement Plan,
the result of an extensive 15 month planning process, has been adopted by Council.
The Plan was developed through use of a Transportation Growth Management grant
received in 2004. The 24-member Downtown Task Force has been acknowledged by
Council for their commitment and effort in producing the Tigard Downtown Improvement
Plan. Their term of service was officially ended by resolution of Council though some
individuals will continue their efforts as part of the Streetscape Working Group.
In order to assist the financing of public improvements in the Downtown, Council has
decided to utilize Tax Increment Financing as a key financial tool. In order to use Tax
Increment Financing, the City is required to adopt an Urban Renewal Plan and
according to City Charter, obtain voter approval. To date, the City has formally adopted
the Urban Renewal Plan for Downtown, and a ballot is anticipated for May 2006. In
preparation for the May ballot measure, the City hired Norton-Arnold & Company to
develop a public outreach program to help the City more effectively address public
concerns regarding the Urban Renewal process.
• The City Council approved Phase I of a contract with Norton-Arnold & Company for
development of a Public Outreach Program on June 5. Phase I provided several
key elements for the program to educate and address citizen concerns regarding the
Urban Renewal process. These included a telephone survey to gauge public
opinion, a public outreach plan, and work with the City Center Advisory Commission
(CCAC) to more effectively develop the overall outreach plan.
• The Tigard Downtown Improvement Plan was adopted by Council on September 27,
2005.
• On October 25, Council approved Phase II of the contract with Norton-Arnold &
Company to provide support materials for presentations and outreach meetings, and
participate in key public meetings.
• During the Urban Renewal planning process, there were approximately 10 small
group presentations conducted by the Center City Advisory Commission (CCAC),
and citywide notices to over 13,000 residents inviting them to the first Open House
for Urban Renewal which took place on November 10. Small group presentations
were designed to inform the public about the Urban Renewal process, answer
questions, and receive comments.
• On November 22, the Council passed a resolution adopting the Urban Renewal Plan
for Downtown.
• On November 22, members of the Downtown Taskforce received certificates of
acknowledgement by the City Council for their Downtown planning efforts. Their
term of service was ended by resolution of Council.

Joanne Bengtson - Year End Rep! 2005 doc Page 2
• On December 1, the City signed a contract with OTAK, Inc. of Lake Oswego for
Phase I Streetscape design. OTAK, Inc. will provide comprehensive design services
for three major Downtown streets (Burnham St., Main St., Commercial St.), five (5)
gateway intersections, and existing City-owned open spaces.
• On December 13, City Council will address a resolution to schedule a May ballot
measure authorizing the use of Tax Increment Financing for Downtown public
improvements.
• Staff has set up a Streetscape Working Group to work with the consultant over a 6
month timeframe to evaluate design alternatives.
• The City of Tigard was awarded the Good Governance Award by the League of
Oregon Cities for its citizen planning effort for the Tigard Downtown Improvement
Program. The award is given out to only one City annually.
• TriMet has provided a preliminary design for the Commuter Rail Station platform in
Downtown Tigard.
Metro UGB Expansion
During the year, staff met with the County Administrator and other County staff to
discuss the planning needs of the two UGB expansion areas. The City followed-up with
a letter to the County Administrator outlining the conditions under which the City would
agree to undertake the Metro-required concept planning for these areas. These
conditions include:
1. Amendment of the Urban Planning Area Agreement (UPAA) to add the
UGB Areas and to assign comprehensive planning authority for the entire
Urban Services Area to the City of Tigard.
2. Amendment of the UPAA or ordinance provisions requiring the adoption of
the City of Tigard Comprehensive Plan into the County land use system.
3. Agreement on a strategy to assure the future annexation of the entire
planning area.
4. Agreement on the level of support the County would contribute toward the
development, production, and adoption of the needed planning.
The mayor forwarded a letter to the County Commissioners addressing the need for
integrated Comprehensive Planning for the entire planning and UGB area.
At year's end, the long-standing issue of which jurisdiction would undertake planning for
the UGB areas continued to be under discussion between the two jurisdictions.
TriMet
Commuter Rail
According to the Tigard/TriMet MOU for increasing transit ridership in Tigard, the
construction and operation of Commuter Rail is the City and Agency's first Tigard-
specific transit priority. The issue of the federal share of Commuter Rail funding was
resolved with the September 2005 passage of the Federal Transportation Bill. The bill
included federal funding for commuter rail construction and assures full funding for the
project. At year's end, TriMet was waiting to conclude a Full Funding Grant Agreement
for the receipt of the federal funds. The currently expected rail service startup date is
September 2008.

Joanne Bengtson - Year End Rept 2005 doc Page 3
Service Improvements
Although no service improvements were carried out during the year, five Tigard-area
service improvements were included in the 2005-2006 TriMet Transit Investment Plan.
TriMet proposes to implement these improvements as funds become available.
1. Frequent Service (lines that run every 15 minutes) on Line 76-Greenburg,
between Beaverton Transit Center and Meridian Park Hospital in Tualatin. When
implemented, Line 76 will be the second Frequent Line operating in Tigard, after
Line 12, HWY 99W.
2. Consider service on Hall Boulevard north of Pacific Highway when Line 76
becomes Frequent (possibly by rerouting 78 from Greenburg to Hall). Although
bordered by many lower-rent apartments, a large portion of Hall north of Pacific
Highway is without transit at this time.
3. Reroute Line 38 to serve Bonita Road and Hall terminating at Tigard Transit
Center. Due to Agency funding shortfalls, the scheduled implementation of this
improvement in 2005 was postponed.
4. Extend Line 45 down Hunziker and 72nd Avenue, terminating at Tualatin Transit
Center to replace service lost by rerouting Line 38. This improvement is
contingent on the Line 38 reroute.
5. Serve the Barrows Road area (possibly by reallocating Line 92 loop service in
Murray Hills). This would include providing express or peak hour service for
commuters.. TriMet is committed to serving the fast growing Barrows Road area,
but not to a specific project.
During the period, TriMet and City staff also were involved in long term service planning.
This included modeling 17 service options that would address service needs on 10
corridors in Tigard.
Capital Improvements
The following transit-related capital improvements were funded and/or designed in
2005.
1. Tigard was awarded $137,000 in federal Community Development Block Grant
(CDBG) funds to finance sidewalk improvements on Hall Boulevard, between the
non-profit Washington Square Village and Spruce Street. In addition to
improving neighborhood pedestrian safety and livability, the project will provide
safe access to future transits stops on Hall Boulevard north of HWY 99W, when
Line 78 is rerouted to serve Hall Boulevard. TriMet Executive Director Fred
Hansen provided a letter in support of this project.
2. The City allocated $80,000 in CIP funds to install sidewalk on Hall Boulevard
opposite Bonita Road in anticipation of future Line 38 service. This project is in
the preliminary design stage. Construction is scheduled for early 2006.
3. Tigard, in partnership with TriMet, applied for $168,000 in FY 06/07 CDBG funds
to construct transit-oriented sidewalk improvements on both sides of Garrett
Street, between Ash Avenue and HWY 99W. The completed sidewalk will
provide safe access to bus stops on HWY 99W. These stops average more than
100 boardings per weekday.
4. TriMet and City staff identified and prioritized citywide sidewalk infill needs near
1ACDADMUERREERReportsWear End Rept 2005.doc
3
Joanne Bengtson Year End Rept 2005.doc Page 4
transit stops. The same is true of citywide transit shelter needs.
5. TriMet looked at needs and suitable locations for semi-seats and solar overhead
lights at several transit stops along Pacific HWY 99W. Semi-seats are seats that
attach to powerline poles and accommodate two people waiting for the bus.
6. TriMet generated general design and cost information for a retaining wall and
shelter pad at the Bull Mountain/HWY 99W stop. The improvement would
address the seasonal problem of mud flow onto the bus stop area. The cost of
the improvement is in the $50,000 range. This project will be recommended for
inclusion in the 06/07 Tigard CIP plan.
Transit-related improvements initiated by the private sector during the year included
Obie Media's City-approved installation of some 35 advertising benches and trash
containers at various locations within the City. Although these are not the so-called
premium or high quality benches installed by TriMet, the benches do fill a need in the
community.
Highway 217 Corridor Study
Metro initiated a study to develop a series of transportation strategies for Hwy 217 in
2002. Tigard staff is part of the Technical Advisory Committee and has continued to
participate throughout 2005. Tigard's primary focus is on the implementation of the
study and its impact on the Washington Square Regional Center connectivity to the
local and regional transportation system.
The study consisted of two phases. Phase I was finalized in November 2004 with the
adoption of three alternatives for further study in 2005. All three options included the
braided ramps and a new trough lane. Phase II of the study focused on financing and
phasing opportunities for each option.
The package of recommended next steps developed in Phase II include additional Hwy
217 traffic lanes, Highway 217 interchanges and corridor arterial improvements. Metro
is scheduled to make a final decision on the recommendations during the months of
December and January.
Goal 5 Natural Resource Protection Program - Tualatin Basin Partners for Natural
Places
Tualatin Basin Partners for Natural Places is an alliance of local governments in
Washington County, which includes the City of Tigard, working under an IGA with Metro to
meet federal and state (Goal 5) requirements for protecting natural resources.
In April 2005, the Tualatin Basin Natural Resources Coordinating Committee (NRCC),
comprised of elected officials and representatives from partner jurisdictions, voted to send
on to Metro their recommended Goal 5 program.
The goal of the Basin effort is to improve the overall environmental health of the Tualatin
Basin. To achieve this goal, the Basin program is built upon four primary components:
revenue for capital improvements, existing regulation, voluntary efforts, and
administration/monitoring.
1ACDADMWERREBReportsWear End Rept 2005.doc

Joanne Bengtson Year End Rept 2005 doc Page 5 i
The Tualatin Basin Goal 5 program has been evolving since 2002. In the fall of 2004, a
preliminary program was nearing approval; however, two intervening events caused the
NRCC to embark on an altered course of action. One event was a revised policy direction
from the Metro Council to turn to a more voluntary and incentive-based approach to
resource protection. The other was the passage by voters of Measure 37, challenging the
authority of local land-use agencies to adopt new land use regulations. As a result, at their
February 2005 meeting, the NRCC provided direction for a revised Basin approach that
would augment existing regulatory programs with an investment strategy for future
improvements, as well as a commitment for continued cooperation among Basin Partners.
In May 2005, the Metro Council decided to accept the Basin program and include it as a
compliance option in the Functional Plan amendments. The final decision by Metro Council
to incorporate the Basin program into the Regional 'Nature in Neighborhoods' Program
was made on September 19, 2005.
In the IGA with Metro, the Basin Partners agreed to implement applicable elements of the
adopted Basin program within one year following the Metro Council's final decision (or by
September 2006).
The two primary program tasks that will require local ordinance adoption for
implementation include: 1) the development of a model ordinance to address a menu of
several low impact development (LID) / habitat-friendly approaches and the inclusion of LID
guidelines in local development codes, and 2) removal of current impediments to the
implementation of LID techniques. In addition, the permit process shall be streamlined to
allow beneficial activities.
The NRCC will continue to function for the long term, overseeing the coordination of natural
resource protection projects to meet the overall goal of improving the environmental health
of the Tualatin Basin.
Affordable Housing
Tax abatement is one of the City's strategies for facilitating affordable housing in the
community. Its purpose is to allow the managers of low-income housing to decrease
annual operating expenses, thereby allowing them to serve lower-income households.
The year 2005 was the tenth anniversary of the City's program. Tigard continues to be
the only jurisdiction within Washington County to provide a tax exemption for affordable
housing.
Under the program rules, the owners of properties receiving the exemption are required
to reapply each year. In 2005, the Tigard-based Community Partners for Affordable
Housing (CPAH) submitted separate applications for low-income housing tax
exemptions for the three properties it owns and manages inside the City. Council
reviewed and approved these three requests.
2005 was the third year of the City's affordable housing Fee Subsidy Program. This
program is designed to reduce fees and charges imposed on affordable housing
acquisition, development, and rehabilitation. During the year, Council awarded $9,915
1ACDADWERREBReportsWear End Rept 2005.doc
5
Joanne Bengtson Year End Rept 2005.doc Page 6 ,
to the CPAH to offset building permit fees for major repairs to the 84-unit CPAH-owned
Greenburg Oaks Apartments.
Lastly, Council provided $15,000 toward the operation of the Tigard-based Good
Neighbor Center serving homeless families in the community.
Grant Search and Assistance
In early 2006, the City was awarded $136,725 in Community Development Block Grant
(CDBG) funds to construct sidewalks along Hall Boulevard between the Village at
Washington Square Apartments and Spruce Street. Construction is scheduled for early
2006.
Tigard was awarded $385,000 through the Metropolitan Transportation Improvement
Program (MTIP) to finance a portion of the Washington Square Greenbelt Trail. Design
and construction are scheduled for 2006.
Tigard applied for but was not award MTIP funds ($100,000) for a trail study and master
plan for the 2.8 mile Barrows/Tualatin River section of the 16-mile regional Powerline
Trail.
The City requested $418,388 in Transportation Enhancement Funds to complete the
Woodard Park Fanno Creek Trail segment. The City's project advanced to the final cut
list, but was not among the 13 projects statewide picked for TE funding. The City will
apply for TE funds again in spring 2006, when a call for projects is expected. ODOT
administers the federally-funded TE program in Oregon.
In late 2005, the City applied for $158,000 in Community Development Block Grant
funds to provide continuous sidewalks along both sides of Garrett Street between Ash
Avenue and HWY 99W. The project selection process extends through early 2006.

Building Division
Construction Activity in 2005
Commercial construction was quite vigorous with increased activity in the past year. The
Oak Apartments are still under construction. The Washington Square Mall expansion
was completed, as well as Alberta Rider Elementary School and several smaller office
complexes.
The residential activity in the Urban Services area has increased and we have collected
about 45% of the projected year-end revenues through the first five months of the fiscal
year. The residential activity in Tigard was at a high level and is projected to increase in
the next year.
We have several large projects that are either currently under construction or are in the
city's review process. Some of these are a four-story office building with a parking
garage and 2-two story offices in the Tigard Triangle, 140 unit Canterbury Crest
Condominiums, a three story mini storage building, 47 unit Oak Street Condominiums,
and well over 400 single-family lots on line, either in Planning, Engineering, or Building
Division review.
We expect activity to increase over the next year.

Volunteer Program End of Year Report - 2005
City of Tigard Volunteer Program components experienced a series of transitions during 2005 with the retirement of
long term Volunteer Coordinator Susan Koepping and the hiring of a Public Works Volunteer Coordinator/Surface
Water Quality Specialist and Volunteer Program Development Specialist. The enclosed information provides an
overview of Volunteer Program activities and trends during 2005.
Outreach and Recruitment
• The October 15 Make A Difference Day events was a multi-department outreach and project
implementation effort. Event outreach was conducted through websites, newsletters, presentations, events
calendar, and flyers. 109 volunteers participated in restoration project activities and a Tigard Library
shelving party.
• A FY 2005-06 Master Volunteer Opportunity List was developed and distributed to increase public
awareness and involvement. An updated version of the list may be accessed through a Volunteer Program
webpage link.
• An average of 14 new volunteers joined the Library's Volunteer program during 2005, up from 12 per
month in 2004 (14% increase). Library volunteers included people from Germany, Bulgaria, Russia, Iran,
Thailand, China, Latin America, India and Japan.
• Volunteer Program outreach including business contacts. One intern recruitment meeting with Finance
Department staff and the Ajilon employee recruiting firm representatives occurred on August 22. A current
list of volunteer opportunities was sent to Comcast Inc. public affairs staff.
Volunteers:
• During 2005, volunteers in the Police Department's Police Reserves Program have been active in a wide
variety of services including traffic control at major accidents, vacation home checks, high school football
basketball traffic direction, bicycle patrols, and providing assistance at special events such as the Tigard
Balloon Festival, Halloween on Main Street, and 2005 Family Festival.
Total 2005 Police Reserve Program volunteer involvement will approach or exceed 4,000 hours.
• Volunteer positions at the library now number 44. New volunteer positions include Volunteer Shelving
Training Assistant (helps new shelvers with procedures and added training), Special Needs Volunteer
Facilitator (assists special needs volunteers to be successful), Ongoing Book sale Manager (reports to the
Friends of the Library to stock the lobby sale), and Local History Docent (works with staff on projects
related to Tigard history and/or staffs the Local History room). At the Tigard Library adult volunteers
contributed 11,431 hours in 2005 (17.5% increase).
• During 2005 new non-Library volunteer positions have included Graphic Arts Assistants (2),
Neighborhood Watch Assistant, Traffic Accident Analyzer, Enhanced Neighborhood Project Contact List
Developer, Assistant Grant Writers (2), Restoration Project Assistant, Spanish Translator Volunteer, Skate
Fest Community Services Placement, and Engineering / Courts
Volunteer. Clerical volunteer placement effort has enhanced through advance scheduling of clerical
placements and active development of new opportunities.
• The Public Works Volunteer Program component transitioned to a proactive stance by clearly defining the
Adopt-A-Street/Path/Stream, and Eagle Scout programs. Recruitment tools were developed and
implemented for each of these programs.
Volunteers:
• In response to new trends Volunteer Program staff practiced adaptive management including home based
volunteers that are involved in graphic arts, proposal development, or translating materials during their non-
work time. Flexibility in managing volunteers is increasingly important since individuals who may have
volunteered while seeking employment are securing jobs at a quicker rate and adjusting their volunteer
involvement accordingly.
• The total number of Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) volunteers expanded to 45 in 2005
with 18 new graduates. These volunteers staff CERT teams in all four quadrants of the Tigard. During
2005 CERT volunteers provided support for the Balloon Festival and Heritage Days events.
• The Annual Volunteer Recognition event was held on June 28 in the Community Room at the Tigard
Library. Nearly ninety individuals enjoyed food, live music and City Council comments.
Current Activities and Future Proiects:
• Volunteer Program Public Works staff continue to support large group maintenance activities at the
Summerlake, Rhododendron Garden, Butterfly Garden, and Cook Park wetlands sites. Volunteer activities
included raking, mulching, pruning, planting, and weed removal.
• Beginning in January, 2005, the Library hosted quarterly work parties for volunteers. Between 64 and 10
volunteers attended each event. Alternating between pizza (Friday nights after closing) and morning
pastries (Saturday morning before opening), over 300 hours of total work has been performed at these 4
events.
• Volunteer Program volunteers have provided extended assistance to the Neighborhood Watch and
Enhanced Neighborhood Pilot Program. Primary assistance has involved organizing and updating contact
information. This volunteer also verified current involvement levels for Neighborhood Watch.
• Public Works Volunteer program staff sponsored 4 large volunteer events to support native area restoration
within the City including "Down by the Riverside", "Washington County Clean and Green", SOLV IT
(Earth Day), and a kickoff event for Clean Water Services "Community Tree Planting Challenge". During
2005, a state of the art volunteer / tool trailer was purchased and outfitted for deployment these restoration
projects. Eventually the trailer will be painted for volunteer recruitment and recognition purposes.
• The development and adoption of draft Volunteer Management Guidelines provides a common framework
for volunteer recruitment, placement, and supervision across department boundaries. It is designed to
address specific volunteer management topics while recognizing that departments will have individualized
projects and processes.
• The Volunteer Program identified department needs to translate certain documents into Spanish. Outreach
and recruitment efforts have resulted in one Spanish translator who has successfully translated contracts and
brochures into Spanish. Additional work will include translating Emergency Operations information into
Spanish for website purposes.
• Volunteer Program staff developed and revised Committee, Task Forces and Commissions guidelines to
facilitate public outreach, interview processing, and appointments. Staff also directly support the
appointment process itself. Volunteer Program employees are working to develop alternative placement
options for applicants who are not recommended for appointments to utilize their interest and energy.
Current Activities and Future Proiects:
• Volunteer Program staff contacted and met with Southridge High School staff to explore potential
partnerships. A promotional video project is in the planning stages. A second meeting was held with a
Tigard Tualatin High School student to discuss volunteer recruitment strategies.
• The Volunteer Program is developing the capacity to help department staff research and produce grant
proposals. Foundation directory software has been loaded onto the volunteer work station computer for
general research. Assistant Grant Writer position descriptions have been developed and distributed to local
colleges and universities. One current volunteer will be assisting Public Works staff on proposal
development.
• Lastly, a format for analyzing library volunteer retention over the next few years has been developed.
Nationally, a recognized trend is toward more volunteers contributing fewer "regular" or weekly hours, and
more "episodic" volunteering, that is, scattered hours here and there. However, the library is experiencing
the opposite more volunteers are signing up for more weekly volunteering and each volunteer is
contributing more hours (an increase of 10% per person from 2004).

CITY OF TIGARD, OREGON.
DATE: December 15, 2005
TO: Dennis Koellermeier, Public Works Director
FROM: Brian Rager,'Assistant Public Works Director
RE: 2005 End of Year Report - Public Works
The following are statements about projects for 2004:
CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS
ASR #2
ASR #2 well is located at the 10 MG reservoir site on SW Bull Mountain Road at SW
125th Avenue. The well drilling was completed in July 2004 and the aquifer was tested
in August 2004. The testing revealed that this will be a very productive well with an
expected production rate of at least 2.5 MGD.
Groundwater Solutions Inc., in a joint project with Murray Smith and Associates (MSA),
completed the production of final plans and specifications in March 2005. In April, the
city with the assistance of MSA underwent a process to solicit bids, review proposals
and selected a contractor. Schneider equipment was
selected as the contractor to implement the design of
the ASR 2 Well House and signed into a contract
z.
with the city as of June 2005. July 12th a
preconstruction meeting was held in order to officially
kick off the construction phase of this project. As of r.
December, the civil, electrical and plumbing aspects
of the project are near completion. Building construction and mechanical installation are „ K
expected to commence late December or early
January.'
SCADA
The current SCADA telemetry system for the city's municipal potable water system is
nearing the end of its service life and will need to be replaced. The current telemetry
system consists of a Master Telemetry Unit (MTU) located in the city office
communicating to 14 Remote Telemetry Units (RTU) over leased telephone lines.
Public Works Accomplishments - 2005 Page 1
There are several factors affecting the reliability and usability of the current system
including but not limited to the following: (1) The Aquatrol SCADA telemetry system is
built on old technology making maintenance difficult, (2) The Prosoft Interface to the
Master Telemetry Unit (MTU) is implemented through a personal computer (PC) with a
proprietary DOS application, (3) Spare parts for the system are not available locally and
must be ordered from the factory, and (4) Additional control hardware is required at
several remote sites due to the limited capabilities of the current system. In general, the
current antiquated and substandard SCADA system can no longer provide the service
and reliability that is demanded by a large and complex municipal potable water system.
Over the last half of 2005, city staff has been
r ;r ~$~xt x w
z orking diligently to assess current system
deficiencies, future system requirements and cost
effective solutions. In July of this year, Portland
Engineering Incorporated (PEI) was hired to
provide a scope for the city to use in the solicitation
of design and specifications to replace the current
outdated SCADA system. During this process, city
staff recommended that PEI be directly hired based
~a on their efficient and professional services provided
to the Joint Water Commission, which Tigard is an
active partner. After obtaining city Council approval, working with the city's purchasing
department, and contract review from city's attorneys, the city signed into contract in
December with PEI to provide design-build services for the a new SCADA system
WATER OPERATIONS
Water line Replacement in Kinq City
The water division replaced 13 waterlines this past summer in preparation for a road
project in King City. Our crews replaced older 2-inch steel water lines with new 4-inch
ductile iron pipe. The older pipe was installed in the early 1970's and was starting to
fail. Total amount of pipe replaced was 2,340-feet, along with the replacement of a few
isolation water valves.
Water Valve Maintenance
The water division started a first round of valve maintenance in the city's water service
area. The program consists of inspecting all valves in the city to ensure the valves:
• are visible
• are accessible, so crews can get to the valve nut with a valve wrench, and
• have documented measurements to fixed objects, so crews can locate the valve.

Parks and Facilities
Parks CIP Report for 2005
The Skate Park remains on the active project listing. The design was "tweaked" and
construction drawings were completed. Although the city did not receive the $150,000
construction grant from the State of Oregon, fundraising continues. The upcoming
budget process will undoubtedly include new funding sources or increases in current
funding sources.
The Fanno Creek Park trail segment from Hall Boulevard to the future Wall Street has
been reconfigured and the state grant amount was lowered to $20,000. Total project
cost is $70,000. The trail has been completed and the bridge will be constructed prior
to June 30, 2006. The trail is approximately 1,500 feet long.
The city's parks and open space acquisition program includes the evaluation of over 40
properties in and out of the city limits. The Council appropriated approximately $2.1
million to acquire parks and open spaces. The recommended properties and
associated usages cover four main areas:
• greenway property
• "active" park property (playgrounds, basketball courts/tennis courts/etc.)
• potential "active/greenway" property
• "other' properties not included in the original evaluation process

SUMMARY OF ACCOMPLISHMENTS
CALENDAR YEAR 2005
NEW REVENUE SOURCES
Street Maintenance
The Transportation Financing Strategies Task Force recommended a Street Maintenance Fee,
which was approved by Council and implemented on April 1, 2004. The revenue received after
the first full year of collections is at or slightly above the target revenue estimate of $800,000.
Pavement overlay projects were implemented in summer 2004, spring 2005 and summer 2005.
Some of the major overlay projects completed include 121St Avenue from Walnut Street to
Springwood Drive and overlay projects adjacent to 121St Avenue in the Walnut Island. Scheduled
for implementation in the spring of 2006 is an overlay of Greenburg Road from Tiedeman
Avenue east to Highway 99W.
Proposed New Funding for Major Street Projects
Following the successful implementation of the Street Maintenance Fee, the Task Force was
reconstituted by Council and has met ten times since August 2004 to discuss potential funding
sources for major street projects. The Task Force requested information on the potential revenues
a local gas tax could raise and on the process for establishing and collecting such a 'tax. Options
considered by the Task Force ranged from a one-cent tax to a five-cent tax. Council met with the
Task Force at the workshop session on February 15, 2005 to provide direction on project
priorities and to discuss potential new funding sources that the Task Force should evaluate for
funding these projects. At this meeting, the Task Force recommended exploration of a local gas
tax as a potential revenue source to possibly address one or more high-priority projects. Council
seemed receptive to the idea of a local gas tax, but stressed that it needs to be tied to high priority
projects that have broadbased citizen support.
At the July 26, 2005 meeting, the Task Force officially recommended adoption of a three=cent
local gas tax once high priority projects targeted at relieving congestion on Highway 99W are
identified and selected. The TGM (Transportation and Growth Management) grant-funded
Highway 99W Corridor Improvement and Management Plan, when completed, is expected to
present a package of projects (both large and small) for consideration. The Task Force proposed
to take the lead in developing and implementing a public involvement plan for selection of
projects. The local gas tax proposal can be considered later when Council feels comfortable with
the project list and with the extent of community support for passage.
Federal Grants
The City was successful in obtaining $430,020 in federal MTIP (Metropolitan Transportation
Improvement Program) funding for the Washington Square Regional Center trail project. Of this
amount, $74,256 was designated for Preliminary Engineering and $198,735 was allocated for

right-of-way acquisition for a total of $272,991 on these two funding categories. As City staff
began the process to obligate the funds for the project design, it became evident that this project
is not yet at a stage where funding for the design could be obligated. A pre-design planning
phase is needed to provide sufficient information to submit a detailed project prospectus.
To eliminate the need to redistribute the MTIP allocations to include a pre-design planning
phase, and as recommended by Metro and ODOT staff, the City requested that MTIP funds
($250,671 including the appropriate local match) for the trail project be redirected to the Tualatin
River Pedestrian Bridge project and that the entire MSTIP funding committed to the pedestrian
bridge be applied to the Washington Square Regional Center Trail project. The MSTIP 3 funding
will be used to perform the planning, design and right-of-way acquisition phases while reserving
the remaining federal funds strictly for construction of the trail. This substitution of funds for the
two projects would avoid the additional step of reallocating MTIP funds to provide a planning
phase, which is a process ODOT has approved in concept but has not actually implemented to
this point. The MSTIP 3 funding of $250,671 will be sufficient to perform the planning, design
and land acquisition using the City's local procurement process. The City will ensure (in close
coordination with ODOT) that all Federal requirements are met as part of the process to
complete the pre-design, design and right-of-way acquisition phases.
Changes to PFI Permit Fee Structure
As of July 1, 2005, the Public Facility Improvement (PFI) Permit fee structure changed from a
"cost recovery" structure to a flat fee of five percent of the estimated cost of the public facility
improvement, with a minimum fee of $300.00. The new fee will be imposed on all PFI
applications for private development projects and for all work in City rights-of-way, except
certain small projects such as limited driveway and sidewalk repair, sprinkler system installation
and repair, street tree pruning, and similar maintenance and small repairs that are exempt from
the fee. The new fee structure will generate revenues that will come closer to covering the City's
actual cost of PFI project review and inspection and will eliminate the administrative burden of
the current fee structure, which required staff to track and record time spent on over 100 ongoing
projects.
Since FY 2000-01, under the former fee structure, permit fee revenue on average covered only
47.9 percent of actual City costs. While the annual revenue from the new fee structure will vary
based on the estimated value of the projects in the City each year (as was the case with the
former structure), based on the estimated value of projects each year since 2000, the proposed
flat fee structure would have generated an average of $266,765.20 per year, which is 122 percent
higher than the average revenue actually received from FY 2000-01 to FY 2003-04. With an
estimated annual cost of $250,733.15 during that period, the five percent flat fee structure would
have, on average, covered the City's costs for private development services. Thus, it is
anticipated that the new fee structure will be more effective in covering the City's actual costs of
administering and providing services for the PFI Permit system.

would be included in the
FY 2006-07 CIP.
Bull Mountain Road (at Hwy 99W)
This project widens the existing eastbound right-turn lane on Bull Mountain Road to improve
turning movements and capacity. To construct the improvements, various infrastructures within
the work limits will require relocation including storm drainage & sanitary sewer facilities and
streetlights. The conceptual design is being reviewed by Washington County. Construction is
scheduled to be completed by July 2006.
Commercial Street (at Main Street)
This project was completed using the Gas Tax Fund to provide a safer turning radus for vehicles
turning right onto Main Street from Commercial Street. The northeast curb return radius was
enlarged from less than 15 feet to 30 feet. In addition to this improvement, the curb/sidewalk was
replaced and the deteriorated pavement at this intersection was rehabilitated. The intersection
was then painted with new crosswalk striping.

Commercial Street Sidewalk - Phase 1 (Lincoln to Main Street)
This project involves construction of half -street improvement with sidewalk on the north side of
the street. Funding for the project will be provided through a Communtiy Development Block
Grant (CDBG) with Tigard providing local matching funds. Completion of the project would
provide a safe and convenient pedestrian access to downtown services and the planned commuter
rail station. Design is currently underway with construction scheduled to begin in the summer of
2006. This schedule, however, is contingent on the City's acquisition of railroad right-of-way.

projects" and smaller-scale "brand-Tigard"
projects with the potential to enhance the development environment of downtown Tigard. .
The first step towards implementation of the
catalyst projects is to create a Comprehensive
Streetscape Plan for the downtown area. A
consultant has been selected to perform the design
services. The overall theme plan, street functional
}
improvements and green street design strategies
will be developed by the consultant and staff. The
project is expected to begin in late November and
is scheduled to be complete by June of 2006.
This project will have a high public profile. The
public process to develop the plan will include : 4 .
numerous discussions, meetings and presentations
to the general public to ensure partnership, Sample of Conceptual Design
enthusiasm and real sense of project involvement
from the people.

Durham Road Signalization (at 108th Ave)
Traffic south of Durham Road attempting to turn left from 108th Avenue onto Durham Road
experiences excessive delay. Whenever the gaps in the traffic flow are infrequent, the left-turn
movement becomes highly difficult and is often unsafe. The problem will become worse as the
residential developments along 108th south of Durham are completed and generate an increase in
traffic volumes at this intersection.
A traffic study conduted by a consultant indicates a signal is warranted at the intersection. The
design will be a joint effort between City staff and a traffic consultant to produce a set of design
plans ready for bids in the early summer of 2006.

Hall Blvd Sidewalk (Spruce to 800ft south)
=s As a continuation of the sidewalks constructed on
Hall Blvd in 2004 between Hwy 99W and Pfaffle
Street, additional sidewalks will be installed along the
west side of the street from Spruce Street to 800 feet
`ro south to improve safety for pedestrians. Some
a`te` existing telephone and power poles will be relocated
to provide space for the new sidewalks.
The project will be funded by CDBG funds with local
matching funds provided by the City. Construction is
Hall Blvd - Sidewalk needed scheduled for the spring of 2006.
Hall Blvd Sidewalk (at Bonita)
This project is one of the sidewalk improvement projects funded by the Gas Tax fund in FY
2005-06. The intent is to fill gaps between existing sidewalks and to enhance pedestrian access to
transit stops. A new sidewalk which will be installed on the west side of Hall Blvd across from
Bonita Road, will be constructed be wide enough to accommodate a bus shelter to be installed by
Tri-Met in the future, if needed. The design of the project is underway and will be advertised for
bids in February 2006.
Hall Blvd at McDonald Traffic Study
The first phase of this project is the design and acquisition of right-of-way for construction of a
southbound right-turn lane on Hall Boulevard at McDonald Street, as required by the conditions
of approval for the development of the Library. In addition to widening the street, curb and
sidewalk are proposed along the new segment of the street to improve pedestrian safety. An
ODOT permit will be required for the design and construction of the project. A traffic study will
be conducted to identify required design elements that need to be incorporated into the project.
The preliminary design is scheduled to be completed by the end of this year. Construction of the
project is tentatively scheduled for FY 2006-07.
Hall Blvd Signalization
This project is part of the Hall Blvd/Wall Street - Phase 2 project involving construction of a
portion of Wall Street east of Hall Blvd to provide joint access for the library and the Fanno
Pointe condominiums. That project included installation of a traffic signal system at the Hall
Blvd/Wall Street intersection. Because of the lengthy process envisioned for the issuance of a
Sensitive Lands permit for construction of Wall Street and because pedestrian safety is a major
concern at the library entrance, the project was sub-divided into two phases to accelerate the
completion of the signal. Construction of the signal began in July 2005 and is anticipated to be
completed by December 2005.

Highway 99W Corridor Improvement & Management Plan
Highway 99W carries over 50,000 vehicles per day, half of which is regional through traffic. This
highway is currently overwhelmed by the existing traffic volumes. There are no significant
parallel routes to this highway, and the traffic congestion will continue to worsen as traffic
increases during the next few years. The intersections of Highway 99W with Hall Boulevard,
Greenburg Road, and McDonald Street are bottlenecks that seriously hamper the smooth flow of
traffic. At peak travel hours, cut-through traffic uses the City of Tigard's collector and arterial
system to avoid the Highway 99W traffic congestion. This traffic adversely impacts the arterial
and collector street system in the City.
The City has received a Transportation and Growth Management (TGM) grant to develop the
plan. The development of the plan is anticipated to begin in April 2006. The study will evaluate
various alternatives for improvement of the highway (including development of new parallel
routes and connections that can feasibly be made between developments parallel to the highway)
between Durham Road and Interstate 5. The intent of the study is to address current traffic
deficiencies, present design alternatives and propose strategies that would provide for effective
traffic circulation, connectivity and operational improvements to the highway and its corridor.
The study would provide a plan for management of the corridor and a package of projects (both
large and small) that can be implemented over a period of years as funding sources are identified
and designated for these projects.
McDonald Street (at Hwy 99W)
McDonald Street is classified as a collector carrying over 8,500 vehicles per day. The Hwy
99W/Gaarde St/McDonald Street intersection operated at an unacceptable level of service and
long queues tended to form on the Gaarde and McDonald legs of the intersection.
The City of Tigard Transportation System Plan
(TSP) calls for the intersection to be improved. '
The Hwy 99W/Gaarde Street intersection was
improved as part of the Gaarde Street - Phase 2
project completed in 2004. This McDonald
Street Improvement project, which was recently
completed in August 2005, has resulted in a ,:M?
considerably improved level of service at the
intersection. The project, after completion, 3
provides a westbound right-turn from McDonald
Street into the highway and lengthens the left-
turn stacking capacity on the street. In addition, -
the project installed curbs and sidewalks on both
- (Before)
sides of the street between Hwy 99W and 105th poor McDonald turning g movements
Avenue.
McDonald Street, after improvements, has dedicated left-turn and right-turn lanes, and west-
bound and east-bound through lanes that provide east-west movement of traffic at the intersection
without impacting the traffic performance of the highway.

North Dakota Crosswalk
This project, which began in early March to It
2005, involved the installation of a mid-
block crosswalk for pedestrians to walk
between the two trail segments, which are
approximately 350 apart at the North Dakota
Street connection. The street was widened
on the north side, which required the
installation of a 12-inch storm drain pipe to
replace an existing ditch and accommodate
the widening. The new crosswalk has been
striped with a high visibility pattern and North Dakota Crosswalk
signed accordingly.
The project was completed by Accord Construction in early May 2005.
Pavement Major Maintenance Program (for FY 2004-05)
The City of Tigard has been hard at work this entire summer on street maintenance projects
funded through the Street Maintenance Fee. This new fee provides a stable source of revenue to
help the City address a considerable backlog in street maintenance projects. When applied early,
preventative maintenance treatments used as part of a pavement preservation strategy will cost
significantly less than the reconstruction & rehabilitation of streets that are allowed to deteriorate.

Pine Street Reconstruction
Pine Street is a narrow roadway located in the northeast LR , n .
quadrant of the City. The street has no shoulders,
;
sidewalks or curbs. The pavement surface has extensive
longitudinal and transverse pattern cracking and numerous
patches along the travel lanes. It also has an inadequate
drainage.system and two significant curves that limit
visibility and speeds. The main goal of this project is to
reconstruct the street to provide proper drainage and
improve rideability. Construction of the improvements is
scheduled for late spring of 2006. Pine Street at west end
Ultimate improvements to the street including correction of the existing curves, installation of
sidewalks and construction of the street to the ultimate width, will be performed in the future

Traffic Calming Program (for FY 2004-05)
This program focuses on reducing high traffic speeds on residential streets. Speed humps
typically reduce speeds by 4 to 6 mph and are frequently requested by residents. The installation
of speed humps are a major part of the program. Speed humps are normally installed by the
City's Public Works crews during the summer or spring each year. This year's program installed
4 speed humps. The streets which received speed humps are:
■ Fern Street (Ascension Drive to 138th Avenue) - 1 hump

Walnut Street - Phase 3 (135th to 121 st Ave)
This project is the last phase of a three-phase project funded through the Washington County
MSTIP 3.
The first phase constructed the Walnut/Gaarde intersection, widened the approaches & installed a
traffic signal at the intersection. The City designed and constructed the project and was
reimbursed by Washington County for all costs, excluding water, sanitary sewer and utility
improvements. This project was completed in 2001.
The second phase improved the Walnut/121st Avenue
intersection, which was completed by the County in 2002.
Phase 3, which began last spring, widens Walnut to provide
44 feet of paved roadway with two travel lanes, a center
turn lane and two bike lanes. Sidewalks will be installed to
enhance pedestrian safety. This project also reconfigures
the Walnut St/Walnut Ln/135th Ave intersection to
improve traffic circulation and correct an unusual three-
legged street connection (see Figure 1). Certain
improvements, such as extension of sanitary sewer lines on
Fern & Walnut Street, are included as part of the project and is

Citywide Sewer Extension Program
This 5 year-program, which began in FY 2001-02, extends sanitary sewer services to all
developed but un-sewered areas Citywide. The City initiates and completes the sewer extensions,
then recoups the total cost of the design and construction via creation of a reimbursement district.
As residents connect to the new sewer line, they have to pay their proportionate share of the cost
of the line, plus the normal connection fee.
The following 5 districts were constructed in 2005 and provided 69 connections to existing
homes.

Derry Dell Sanitary Sewer Wetland Mitigation
This project enhances wetland areas and vegetated corridors along Derry Dell Creek at 110th
Avenue. The enhancement is required by environmental permits due to impacts created by the
installation of a sanitary sewer pipe across the creek. Willows and Oregon Ash trees have been
planted in the work area. Invasive species such as blackberry and English ivy have been removed.
As with the Gaarde Mitigation projects above, if the plants survive at required rate, this mitigation
work will also be completed in 2008.

completed this year includes improvements of 1180 square feet of wetland by removing reed
canary grass and establishing a vegetated corridor mitigation plan along the Fanno Creek
Greenway immediately north of Tigard Street. If the new plants survive at the rate indicated by .
the permit requirements, the mitigation work will be completed in 2008.
Highland Drive Storm Drainage
The existing storm drainage system on Highland Drive from 109th Ave to approximately 1,100
feet east of the Highland/109th intersection consists of 12-inch pipes that have been crushed in
numerous places and are beginning to fail. This project includes installation of new pipes,
manholes and upgraded catch basins. In addition to storm drainage improvements, a new
pavement overlay will be applied on the street using the Street Maintenance Fee fund. The
improvements are scheduled for the spring of 2006 (the project will be advertised for bid as one
project). Construction coordination would be more efficient if both projects are handled
simultaneously by the same contractor.
Rockingham Storm Drain
This project replaces an undersized storm drain
inlet located near Rockingham Street west of the
132nd/Greenfield Drive intersection. The inlet,
which is located at the end of an unnamed tributary
creek, was not sized large enough to handle the
3 winter runoff from nearby subdivisions. This
project replaces the inlet with an oversized
r• manhole and properly directs the runoff into the
manhole using a 54-inch metal end section.
,r Construction of the project was completed recently.

PRIVATE DEVELOPMENT REVIEW
Construction Activity
Permits Issued: The Engineering Department processed 54 new permits in 2005. The permits
issued covered both minor and major work within the existing rights-of-way with work ranging
from utility installations to half-street improvements.
The total value of projects covered under these permits is slightly over $6 million. This is
approximately 3% less than the $6.25 million in 2004, but substantially more than the $3.6
million in 2003. Based on private development projects already in process and ready to be
constructed in 2006, the Engineering staff anticipates that the project valuation level will again
be at or near $6 million for 2006.
Construction Highlights: The construction activity in 2005 requiring inspection of public
improvements has again been mostly residential but did include one new school on Bull
Mountain. The Washington Square expansion was an exceptionally large project that provided
City revenue through building permit fees. However, the primary beneficiary of the public
improvements required from that project is the Oregon Department of Transportation.
The following projects are representative of the private development projects with public
improvement construction inspected by the Development Review Division inspectors.
Half-street improvements were completed
along Bull Mountain Road in conjunction
with Alberta Rider Elementary School.
This project is located south of Bull
Mountain Road, just east of 133rd Avenue.
The school opened in November 2005.

Half-street improvements were
completed on the north piece of
f ` Greenfield Drive, a neighborhood route,
from Bull Mountain Road to Beef Bend
Road. This is part of the Arbor Summit I
t , & II Subdivision Projects. These
subdivisions also partnered with Alberta
Rider School to complete improvements
along their Bull Mountain Road frontage.
These two subdivision projects are
located just east of the Alberta Rider
School project. The two subdivisions will
provide 42 new homes.
The southern portion of Greenfield Road
and half street improvements along Beef
Bend Road are part of Bella Vista
Subdivision Project. Located on the north
side of Beef Bend Road, this project will
develop 41 new home lots. This
development is also extending the public '
water to better serve this area. l
The center section of Greenfield Road
(between Bull Mountain Road and Beef
Bend Road) was completed as part of the
Summit Ridge Subdivision. This 130-lot
a subdivision is located south of the
~E Alberta Rider School and the Bella Vista
. Subdivision. Phases I, II & III home
construction are under way. Construction
permits for Phase IV public
improvements have been issued.

determined by Council the level of support for the n} w
project may not be enough to justify proceeding with t< '
the LID. hX ;
7~ ~jF`. ennms .
Since 79th Avenue is in poor condition through most s,"
of the street, staff is exploring the possiblitiy of~
upgrading sections of the street (segments not part of '
any proposed developments) by reconstruction of two
travel lanes and construction of paved shoulders for
pedestrians and bicyclists. Street Maintenance Fee
and Gas Tax funds would be used to fund the project.
If approved by Council, the proposed improvements 79th Avenue - looking south
would be included in the
FY 2006-07 CIP.
Bull Mountain Road (at Hwy 99W)
This project widens the existing eastbound right-turn lane on Bull Mountain Road to improve
turning movements and capacity. To construct the improvements, various infrastructures within
the work limits will require relocation including storm drainage & sanitary sewer facilities and
streetlights. The conceptual design is being reviewed by Washington County. Construction is
scheduled to be completed by July 2006.
Commercial Street (at Main Street)
This project was completed using the Gas Tax Fund to provide a safer turning radus for vehicles
turning right onto Main Street from Commercial Street. The northeast curb return radius was
enlarged from less than 15 feet to 30 feet. In addition to this improvement, the curb/sidewalk was
replaced and the deteriorated pavement at this intersection was rehabilitated. The intersection
was then painted with new crosswalk striping.

This project involves construction of half -street improvement with sidewalk on the north side of
the street. Funding for the project will be provided through a Communtiy Development Block
Grant (CDBG) with Tigard providing local matching funds. Completion of the project would
provide a safe and convenient pedestrian access to downtown services and the planned commuter
rail station. Design is currently underway with construction scheduled to begin in the summer of
2006. This schedule, however, is contingent on the City's acquisition of railroad right-of-way.

Durham Road Signalization (at 108th Ave)
Traffic south of Durham Road attempting to turn left from 108th Avenue onto Durham Road
experiences excessive delay. Whenever the gaps in the traffic flow are infrequent, the left-turn
movement becomes highly difficult and is often unsafe. The problem will become worse as the
residential developments along 108th south of Durham are completed and generate an increase in
traffic volumes at this intersection.
A traffic study conduted by a consultant indicates a signal is warranted at the intersection. The
design will be a joint effort between City staff and a traffic consultant to produce a set of design
plans ready for bids in the early summer of 2006.

Hall Blvd Sidewalk (Spruce to 800ft south)
As a continuation of the sidewalks constructed on
Hall Blvd in 2004 between Hwy 99W and Pfaffle
Street, additional sidewalks will be installed along the
01. 1'. `r west side of the street from Spruce Street to 800 feet
south to improve safety for pedestrians. Some
existing telephone and power poles will be relocated
to provide space for the new sidewalks.
'f The project will be funded by CDBG funds with local
matching funds provided by the City. Construction is
Hall Blvd - Sidewalk needed scheduled for the spring of 2006.
Hall Blvd Sidewalk (at Bonita)
This project is one of the sidewalk improvement projects funded by the Gas Tax fund in FY
2005-06. The intent is to fill gaps between existing sidewalks and to enhance pedestrian access to
transit stops. A new sidewalk which will be installed on the west side of Hall Blvd across from
Bonita Road, will be constructed be wide enough to accommodate a bus shelter to be installed by
Tri-Met in the future, if needed. The design of the project is underway and will be advertised for
bids in February 2006.
Hall Blvd at McDonald Traffic Study
The first phase of this project is the design and acquisition of right-of-way for construction of a
southbound right-turn lane on Hall Boulevard at McDonald Street, as required by the conditions
of approval for the development of the Library. In addition to widening the street, curb and
sidewalk are proposed along the new segment of the street to improve pedestrian safety. An
ODOT permit will be required for the design and construction of the project. A traffic study will
be conducted to identify required design elements that need to be incorporated into the project.
The preliminary design is scheduled to be completed by the end of this year. Construction of the
project is tentatively scheduled for FY 2006-07.
Hall Blvd Signalization
This project is part of the Hall Blvd/Wall Street - Phase 2 project involving construction of a
portion of Wall Street east of Hall Blvd to provide joint access for the library and the Fanno
Pointe condominiums. That project included installation of a traffic signal system at the Hall
Blvd/Wall Street intersection. Because of the lengthy process envisioned for the issuance of a
Sensitive Lands permit for construction of Wall Street and because pedestrian safety is a major
concern at the library entrance, the project was sub-divided into two phases to accelerate the
completion of the signal. Construction of the signal began in July 2005 and is anticipated to be
completed by December 2005.

Highway 99W Corridor Improvement & Management Plan
Highway 99W carries over 50,000 vehicles per day, half of which is regional through traffic. This
highway is currently overwhelmed by the existing traffic volumes. There are no significant
parallel routes to this highway, and the traffic congestion will continue to worsen as traffic
increases during the next few years. The intersections of Highway 99W with Hall Boulevard,
Greenburg Road, and McDonald Street are bottlenecks that seriously hamper the smooth flow of
traffic. At peak travel hours, cut-through traffic uses the City of Tigard's collector and arterial
system to avoid the Highway 99W traffic congestion. This traffic adversely impacts the arterial
and collector street system in the City.
The City has received a Transportation and Growth Management (TGM) grant to develop the
plan. The development of the plan is anticipated to begin in April 2006. The study will evaluate
various alternatives for improvement of the highway (including development of new parallel
routes and connections that can feasibly be made between developments parallel to the highway)
between Durham Road and Interstate 5. The intent of the study is to address current traffic
deficiencies, present design alternatives and propose strategies that would provide for effective
traffic circulation, connectivity and operational improvements to the highway and its corridor.
The study would provide a plan for management of the corridor and a package of projects (both
large and small) that can be implemented over a period of years as funding sources are identified
and designated for these projects.
McDonald Street (at Hwy 99W)
McDonald Street is classified as a collector carrying over 8,500 vehicles per day. The Hwy
99W/Gaarde St/McDonald Street intersection operated at an unacceptable level of service and
long queues tended to form on the Gaarde and McDonald legs of the intersection.
The City of Tigard Transportation System Plan

(TSP) calls for the intersection to be improved.
The Hwy 99W/Gaarde Street intersection was, .
improved as part of the Gaarde Street - Phase 2 _
project completed in 2004. This McDonald - -

the project installed curbs and sidewalks on both
sides of the street between Hwy 99W and 105th McDonald - (Before)
Avenue. poor turning g movements
McDonald Street, after improvements, has dedicated left-turn and right-turn lanes, and west-
bound and east-bound through lanes that provide east-west movement of traffic at the intersection
without impacting the traffic performance of the highway.

North Dakota Crosswalk
This project, which began in early March°
2005, involved the installation of a mid-
r' _ v
block crosswalk for pedestrians to walk ~
between the two trail segments, which are
or.o .
approximately 350 apart at the North Dakota ~Street connection. The street was widened
A,
on the north side, which required the /~,r
installation of a 12-inch storm drain pipe to
replace an existing ditch and accommodate t ! ' ,4<
the widening. The new crosswalk has been F • M, '

signed accordingly.
The project was completed by Accord Construction in early May 2005.
Pavement Major Maintenance Program (for FY 2004-05)
The City of Tigard has been hard at work this entire summer on street maintenance projects
funded through the Street Maintenance Fee. This new fee provides a stable source of revenue to
help the City address a considerable backlog in street maintenance projects. When applied early,
preventative maintenance treatments used as part of a pavement preservation strategy will cost
significantly less than the reconstruction & rehabilitation of streets that are allowed to deteriorate.

Pine Street Reconstruction
Pine Street is a narrow roadway located in the northeast
quadrant of the City. The street has no shoulders, '
sidewalks or curbs. The pavement surface has extensive t
r -
longitudinal and transverse pattern cracking and numerous
patches along the travel lanes. It also has an inadequate_
drainage system and two significant curves that limit
visibility and speeds. The main goal of this project is to
reconstruct the street to provide proper drainage and ;
improve rideability. Construction of the improvements is
scheduled for late spring of 2006. Pine Street at west end
Ultimate improvements to the street including correction of the existing curves, installation of
sidewalks and construction of the street to the ultimate width, will be performed in the future
when funding is available.

Traffic Calming Program (for FY 2004-05)
This program focuses on reducing high traffic speeds on residential streets. Speed humps
typically reduce speeds by 4 to 6 mph and are frequently requested by residents. The installation
of speed humps are a major part of the program. Speed humps are normally installed by the
City's Public Works crews during the summer or spring each year. This year's program installed
4 speed humps. The streets which received speed humps are:
■ Fern Street (Ascension Drive to 138th Avenue) - 1 hump
■ Park Street (Walnut to 110th Ave)- 2 humps

Walnut Street- Phase 3 (135th to 121st Ave)
This project is the last phase of a three-phase project funded through the Washington County
MSTIP 3.
The first phase constructed the Walnut/Gaarde intersection, widened the approaches & installed a
traffic signal at the intersection. The City designed and constructed the project and was
reimbursed by Washington County for all costs, excluding water, sanitary sewer and utility
improvements. This project was completed in 2001.
The second phase improved the Walnut/121st Avenue !
intersection, which was completed by the County in 2002.

Phase 3, which began last spring, widens Walnut to provide
44 feet of paved roadway with two travel lanes, a center
turn lane and two bike lanes. Sidewalks will be installed to
enhance pedestrian safety. This project also reconfigures
the Walnut StiWalnut Ln/135th Ave intersection to
improve traffic circulation and correct an unusual three-
legged street connection (see Figurel). Certain \
improvements, such as extension of sanitary sewer lines on
Fern & Walnut Street, are included as part of the project and is

Citywide Sewer Extension Program
This 5 year-program, which began in FY 2001-02, extends sanitary sewer services to all
developed but un-sewered areas Citywide. The City initiates and completes the sewer extensions,
then recoups the total cost of the design and construction via creation of a reimbursement district.
As residents connect to the new sewer line, they have to pay their proportionate share of the cost
of the line, plus the normal connection fee.
The following 5 districts were constructed in 2005 and provided 69 connections to existing
homes.
■ 117th Avenue - Sanitary Sewer Reimbursement District No. 34 ( 4 lots)
■ Ash Avenue - Sanitary Sewer Reimbursement District No. 36 (9 lots)

Derry Dell Sanitary Sewer Wetland Mitigation
This project enhances wetland areas and vegetated corridors along Derry Dell Creek at 110th
Avenue. The enhancement is required by environmental permits due to impacts created by the
installation of a sanitary sewer pipe across the creek. Willows and Oregon Ash trees have been
planted in the work area. Invasive species such as blackberry and English ivy have been removed.
As with the Gaarde Mitigation projects above, if the plants survive at required rate, this mitigation
work will also be completed in 2008.

completed this year includes improvements of 1180 square feet of wetland by removing reed
canary grass and establishing a vegetated corridor mitigation plan along the Fanno Creek
Greenway immediately north of Tigard Street. If the new plants survive at the rate indicated by
the permit requirements, the mitigation work will be completed in 2008.
Highland Drive Storm Drainage
The existing storm drainage system on Highland Drive from 109th Ave to approximately. 1, 100
feet east of the Highland/ I 09th intersection consists of 12-inch pipes that have been crushed in
numerous places and are beginning to fail. This project includes installation of new pipes,
manholes and upgraded catch basins. In addition to storm drainage improvements, a new
pavement overlay will be applied on the street using the Street Maintenance Fee fund. The
improvements are scheduled for the spring of 2006 (the project will be advertised for bid as one
project). Construction coordination would be more efficient if both projects are handled
simultaneously by the same contractor.
