Aug. 28th Hi Craig, I want to note on the explanation of the $5,000 grant to Washington County there is a misunderstanding about the grant exactly. The $5,000 grant is to Washington County to help fund the $50,000 it will take to write this plan for the county. For Washington County and the cities in the county to get any federal funding for low income housing and homelessness, it will be imperative that we have a ten year plan to implement so that we can all receive funding for our housing and homelessness projects. So far, it isn't required, but we expect that within one to two years, it will be (that's the word from our contacts in DC and HUD). We are already working on some of the issues that will be in the plan, but the plan is imperative for our county. Hillsboro and Beaverton both contributed $5,000 each to help write the plan and Washington County contributed $25,000. Other cities contributed smaller amounts, but our $5,000 will give us the necessary funds to get to the $50k it is estimated to take to write this plan. I have also been asked to sit on this committee as a representative from Tigard. We will have several meetings as we go through the writing of this plan to make sure that all areas of homelessness are addressed. I have assumed that the city council will be ok with my position on this committee. Hope this clears up any misunderstanding about the $5,000 grant to Washington County.

The Fanno Creek Steering Committee and the City Center Advisory Commission recommend the Stevens Marine Site which is directly on Fanno Creek Park and complements the downtown plan and lends itself to redevelopment the most. Adjacent property is owned by Dan Dolan who has been amenable to talking about selling. Two people plan to testify on the Plaza Location: Alice Ellis Gaut to represent the Fanno Creek Steering Committee and Alexander Craghead to represent the City Center Advisory Commission. Tigard City Council, Local Contract Review Board, and City Center Development Agency Meeting Minutes August 28, 2007 Page 1 > Council Liaison Assignments - Administration Department Council discussed the City Council Liaison Appointment Matrix; a copy is on file in the City Recorder's office. New appointments are needed for those positions that had been assigned to former Councilor Harding. Changes made include the following: • Councilor Woodruff will serve on the Metropolitan Area Communications Commission. • Councilor Sherwood will serve on the next rotation Quly - December 07) for the Mayor's Appointment Advisory Committee. Councilor Buchner will serve January - June 08. The candidate elected in November will serve the July - December 08 term on this committee. • Councilor Wilson will serve on the Tualatin Basin Natural Resource Coordinating Committee. • ADMINISTRATIVE ITEMS - Discussion on Downtown Street Lights Mayor Dirksen said that if the citizen group wants to re-explore the street lights for downtown, then the City Council would be willing for them to do so. It was noted that the Streetscape Committee no longer is meeting; however, the former members of this committee could discuss the matter with the City Center Advisory Commission if they choose. Community Development Director Coffee advised that the CCAC voted 4-2 to recommend to the City Council that the issue of streetlights be reopened and revisited. Mayor Dirksen agreed to do as CCAC requested but emphasized that a decision needs to be made soon. Community Development Director Coffee asked if the City Center Advisory Commission is the group that will decide the final selection. Mayor Dirksen said the City Council would make the final recommendation. Councilor Sherwood added that the Mayor and City Council members are trying to make sure that the City Center Advisory Commission members are heard and their recommendations considered. In response to Councilor Wilson's question about whether a consultant has been involved in the process, Senior Planner Nachbar said that he recently talked to a consultant and has also received some references to some good websites. He said he feels confident that at least five to seven viable examples can be produced. Senior Planner Nachbar asked about design; it has been presumed that a traditional design is desired. Councilor Wilson said he thought a traditional design had been decided upon and this should not be reopened. His question was whether the City should commit to the PGE-approved light and what would be the consequences if another light was selected. Councilor Buchner and Mayor Dirksen said they would want to know the price differential. At the conclusion of the discussion about a traditional style, Councilor Wilson said rather than a replica of an historical traditional style, it might be worth considering a style with traditional lines to it. Tigard City Council, Local Contract Review Board, and City Center Development Agency Meeting Minutes August 28, 2007 Page 2 - Discussion on Consent Agenda Item No. 4.4 Regarding the Washington County 10-Year Plan to End Homelessness Grant Application Councilor Sherwood advised she would request this Item be removed from the Consent Agenda for separate consideration as some clarification is needed. - City Recorder Wheatley reviewed the following corrections: • Correction to Page 12 of the June 10, 2007 Tigard City Council, City Center Development Agency Meeting minutes.

Subsequent to this, the Planning Commission reinstated the Language that was in question. 4. CONSENT AGENDA: Mayor Dirksen reviewed the Consent Agenda: 4.1 Approve Council Meeting Minutes: June 12, 19, 26 and July 10, 2007 4.2 Re-Approve Tigard Library Policies 4.3 Authorize the Mayor to Sign the King City Urban Service Agreement - Resolution No. 07-57 A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE MAYOR TO SIGN THE KING CITY URBAN SERVICE AGREEMENT AND ASSOCIATEDADDENDUM FOR THE PURPOSE OF IDENTIFYING AND COORDINATING TIGARD'S AND KING CITY'S COMMON URBAN SERVICES BOUNDARIES 4.4 Approve Budget Amendment #5 to FY 2007-08 Budget Increasing Appropriations by $5,000 in the Social Services/Community Events Budget within the Community Services Program to reflect the Costs Associated with Providing Funds to support Washington County's 10-Year Plan to End Homelessness Grant Application - Resolution No. 07-58 A RESOLUTION APPROVING BUDGET AMENDMENT #5 TO THE FY 2007-08 BUDGET TO INCREASE APPROPRIATIONS IN THE SOCIAL SERVICES/COMMUNITY EVENTS BUDGET WITHIN THE COMMUNITY SERVICES PROGRAM TO REFLECT THE COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH PROVIDING FUNDS TO SUPPORT WASHINGTON COUNTY'S 10-YEAR PLAN TO END HOMELESSNESS GRANT APPLICATION Councilor Sherwood requested Item No. 4.4 be removed for further clarification. Motion by Councilor Buehner, seconded by Councilor Wilson, to approve the Consent Agenda, less Item No. 4.4. The motion was approved by a unanimous vote of Council present. Mayor Dirksen Yes Tigard City Council, Local Contract Review Board, and City Center Development Agency Meeting Minutes August 28, 2007 Page 4 Councilor Buchner Yes Councilor Wilson Yes Councilor Sherwood Yes Councilor Woodruff Yes Councilor Sherwood advised in the City Council packets last week, the budget amendment for the $5,000 appropriation goes toward the writing of the 10-year plan to end homelessness in Washington County. The City of Hillsboro, the City Beaverton and quite a few of the other cities gave smaller amounts. As a result the $50,000 needed to prepare for the grant has been realized. Councilor Sherwood said she was concerned because the staff report was written in such a way that someone might interpret that a grant was going to be received in the amount of $50,000, which is not the case. She explained that to get any funding from the federal government in the next few years, a 10-year plan to end homelessness needs to be written. She noted she will be working to assist in writing the plan. Motion by Councilor Sherwood, seconded by Councilor Buchner, to approve Budget Amendment No. 5, to increase appropriations by $5,000. The motion was approved by a unanimous vote of Council present. Mayor Dirksen Yes Councilor Buchner Yes Councilor Wilson Yes Councilor Sherwood Yes Councilor Woodruff Yes City Manager Prosser noted the City Council approved the minutes of the June 10, 2007, City Council meeting with a correction. The correction was to note that Councilor Wilson did not vote on Agenda No. 7 regarding calling a special election to elect a City Council member. Councilor Wilson did not participate in the discussion, nor was he seated at the Council bench for this discussion. The Mayor noted the City Council acknowledged the correction to the minutes. 5.

PUBLIC HEARING - SELECTION OF DOWNTOWN PLAZA LOCATION Written and oral testimony is solicited as the CCDA considers the location of a public plaza in Downtown. a. Chair Dirksen opened the public hearing. b. Declarations or Challenges: City Attorney Ramis advised that if any member of the City Center Development Agency has an actual or potential conflict involving this area, this would be the time to announce it. There were no declarations or challenges. c. Senior Planner Nachbar presented the staff report. He reviewed the history of the process to date. The Fanno Creek Steering Committee and City Center Advisory Commission have been asked to make independent recommendations with regard to the location of the public plaza. A copy of the staff report is on file in the City Recorder's office. Tigard City Council, Local Contract Review Board, and City Center Development Agency Meeting Minutes August 28, 2007 Page 6 The City Center Development Agency is being asked to conduct this hearing and make a decision and identify the site that it would like to see for the public plaza and to endorse the concept surrounding the public plaza. The PowerPoint presentation overview is on file in the City Recorder's office. The presentation included the following information: • Downtown Improvement Plan - Preferred Design Alternative • Aerial Photo of the Downtown • Downtown Improvement Plan - Map - 2005 • District Plan • Economic Considerations • Preliminary Program (Plaza Program) • Steering Committee Suggestions • Map - Plaza Locations • Site Evaluation (Location Matrix) • Maps of Sites One, Two, Five and Six, Plus Pros and Cons Consultant Mike Zahas addressed the CCDA on the process and the selection of the Stevens Marine property. Mr. Zahas said there was an in-depth process where the Steering Committee and the public gave input. There were two good choices for the City: 1) the corner of First and Main, and 2) the Stevens Marine site. Through the dialogue with the Committee and the public, it became evident that people were interested in the connection to the park to provide a softer approach to the Plaza. The selection made by the Committee was a wise one and will be a great space. Mr. Dan Dolan is on the Committee, has adjacent property, and is interested in seeing the potential. There is potential to catalyze redevelopment and bring activity down Burnham Street. Director Wilson commented that in selecting a site, the Downtown Plan does not allow for the use of eminent domain to acquire sites. A key factor will be: Are we likely to be able to acquire this site. He asked Senior Planner Nachbar what the current agreement is with Stevens Marine. Senior Planner Nachbar advised said they do not have a formal agreement; we have a memorandum of understanding. Senior Planner Nachbar has made an attempt over the last six months to discuss with Mr. Stevens his interest in working with the City Center Development Agency. Mr. Stevens indicated that he is interested in moving out of the downtown within the next two to five years. An appraisal has been done on the property and this has been shared with Mr. Stevens. Mr. Stevens still has some business planning to do to make his decision; however, Senior Planner Nachbar understands that Mr. Stevens is committed to working with the City Center Development Agency and moving out of the Downtown. There is indication that this will be workable. In addition to the Stevens Marine property there is potentially other property owned by Mr. Stevens that might benefit the Tigard City Council, Local Contract Review Board, and City Center Development Agency Meeting Minutes August 28, 2007 Page 7 City in terms of its connections. The next step would be to work towards a legal agreement with Mr. Stevens. Director Buehner asked if the CCDA were to adopt the Stevens Marine site, is Mr. Dolan aware of this and are there future plans to look at his property. Senior Planner Nachbar advised that Mr. Dolan is fully aware as he is on the Committee that made the recommendation for the Stevens Marine property. Mr. Dolan has been forthright in saying that he would be willing to work with the City. The next step after the Plaza location decision is made would be to work with property owners adjoining the Plaza, along with Leland consultants, to attempt to determine what kind of development could be feasible next to a Plaza. Part of the contract with Walker Macy calls for some preliminary design concepts and design guidelines; this will assist property owners and the City to decide whether we can move forward with a "real project." Director Wilson asked if the intent would be to not develop a Plaza in advance of any adjacent development, but to move forward at the same time. Senior Planner Nachbar replied, "Most definitely... because we really want to take advantage of that ability for a Plaza to catalyze development and work together." Senior Planner Nachbar summarized the public process followed with the Fanno Creek Steering Committee, City Center Advisory Commission, Tigard Chamber of Commerce, Kiwanis Club, a public open house, more than 900 letters were sent out as well as a number of e-mails to a large interested party list. The recommendations from the August 8, 2007, Fanno Creek Steering Committee were to endorse the Stevens Marine property for the location of the Plaza and also they endorse the Concept Plan surrounding the Plaza. At the last City Center Advisory Commission meeting, it also endorsed the Stevens Marine property as a location and a Concept Plan. The Concept Plan addresses circulation, Plaza location, and a preliminary set of uses the consultant advises is likely to be feasible. Although, the consultant will continue with their analysis, so more modifications are possible. Director Woodruff noted the City Center Development Agency member have heard from business owners on Burnham of concerns about development occurring there. He asked Senior Planner Nachbar if he believed they were "fully up to speed" and while there might not be total consensus, is there a sense that this is something they could live with, "if we were to move ahead with this." Senior Planner Nachbar said he could not speak for everyone and there is not a large formal group that represents the downtown businesses. Staff has tried to make contact with these business owners and invite them to the Chamber of Commerce meetings. Senior Planner Nachbar said he has not heard of any major objections, "but again, I can't speak for everyone." d. Public Testimony Tigard City Council, Local Contract Review Board, and City Center Development Agency Meeting Minutes August 28, 2007 Page 8 • Alice Ellis Gaut of the Fanno Creek Steering Committee, 10947 SW Chateau Lane, Tigard, Oregon. The presentation to the CCDA tonight captured most of the elements the Committee feels is advantageous about Site No. 1, including the easy land acquisition and the connection to the park. She referred to the rating of "low visibility" for this site; however, in the design prepared by Walker Macy, it appears to draw interest and direct sight down the street to the Plaza. If an area near this develops as an "extra Plaza," it could become part of the mixed use development and would not be a City project. This would bring attention from both directions traveling on Main Street to the fact that there is a public space. She reviewed the design that would be anchored by architectural elements. She also referred to the potential for a Performing Arts Center near the Plaza location. The next choice by the Committee was Site No. 5. Director Buehner commented that she did not agree that there are problems with lack of visibility. Ms. Ellis Gaut said she was also puzzled by this concern; however, she explained that the Main Street through traffic did not have visibility. With the visual elements contemplated to open up the corner, she agreed with Director Buehner that this should not be an issue. • Alexander Craghead, Vice Chair of the City Center Advisory Commission and Lily Lilly, City Center Advisory Commission member presented testimony. Mr. Craghead advised the CCAC received its final presentation on the Plaza location last week. Overall, Site No. 1 has been a favorite for awhile; however, they did consider other options. The recommendation made by the Fanno Creek Steering Committee did have "a lot going for it." The Concept Plan was a major factor in making this the first choice because it would be a Plaza that would be integrated within downtown. Mr. Craghead agreed that the visibility issue would go away because Burnham Street will be redesigned, which should generate excitement and interest. This site was appealing also because it appears to be most compatible with the Tigard Downtown Improvement Plan. Ms. Lilly said that from her point of view as a "sustainable developer" she said she has "loved this site" since she first saw it. The site catalyzes the natural environment of Tigard and brings together a focal point, creates a focus on green and sustainable development, and there appear to be less issues with acquiring this site, which is larger than most of the other sites. She noted she is "very, very excited about this design" and that everyone has agreed. She said she thinks Walker Macy did a tremendous job providing options. • Marland Henderson, 11795 SW Katherine Street, Tigard, Oregon, said he attended the Port Moody tour, which he commented favorably upon. He said he was testifying as a citizen and one of the directors of the Tigard Area Tigard City Council, Local Contract Review Board, and City Center Development Agency Meeting Minutes August 28, 2007 Page 9 Farmer's Market. Mr. Henderson read a letter and a copy of this letter is on file in the City Recorder's office. He noted support for Site No. 1 for the Plaza and for a potential future site for the Farmer's Market. He said he believed this site can develop into an acceptable site to provide a place that Tigard can call home. This would provide an opportunity for all kinds of venues. He noted this would be a great place to develop a final home for the Farmer's Market to be shared with other uses. Site No. 1 is the most simple and least costly of all of the options. He urged the CCDA give direction tonight so the Downtown can move forward. He reiterated his support for Site 1. He noted the good potential also for the Farmer's Market. • Lisa Olson, 14720 SW Cabernet Court, Tigard, OR 97224-1539 distributed a written summary of her testimony regarding the Fanno Creek Plaza Site Selection. A copy is on file in the City Recorder's office. She advised that she is a member of the Fanno Creek Public Plaza Steering Committee, was on the Streetscape Work Group and the Tigard Downtown Improvement Plan (TDIP) for the Task Force. She noted her support for the "Stevens Marine Property" (Site No. 1). She advised her reasons are listed in the information distributed to the CCDA in her written testimony summary: o Tigard citizens have affirmed placing the "heart of the Downtown" adjacent to Fanno Creek Park twice; once through the TDIP process and also when the voters approved the urban renewal district which was based, in part, on the TDIP. o This site offers leverages for the surrounding property for redevelopment based on the footprint and also attractive for redevelopment adjacent to this area. In addition the current property owners are willing to work with the City of Tigard. o The least amount of land that needs to be required by the City of Tigard for public use. There are only two parcels and other options required more parcels. o Long-term and short-term vision. The negative aspect was listed as visibility of this site; however, this is based on current conditions. The Plaza in the park will be the first area to be redeveloped and the TDIP looks at a 25-30 year plan and with this being the first area to develop, then this will be the focus of what will go forward in the downtown. She also referred to other negatives listed as short-term thinking; i.e., proximity of existing commerce, programming, and mixed use development. o The ability to connect to Commuter Rail and the parking it offers on the evenings and weekend when activity is likely to be the highest at the Plaza. o Best utilizes the natural resource in the downtown. • Stan Baumhofer, representing the Tigard Area Farmer's Market. Mr. Baumhofer is the President of this non-profit corporation. He reviewed the Tigard City Council, Local Contract Review Board, and City Center Development Agency Meeting Minutes August 28, 2007 Page 10 history of the Farmer's Market, which has been located at several locations over the past 15 years; it is now located at the corner of Hall Blvd. and Greenburg Road. He said he was not present to lobby for a Farmer's Market and said there has been no formal inclination indicating a Market was desirable. He said that he was glad to see it is now being mentioned. He supported Site No. 1 for the purposes of the City of Tigard. Mr. Baumhofer referred to the success of Pioneer Courthouse Square and offered that the major contributing factors were: 1. The light rail transportation on two sides and, eventually, will have light rail on three sides. The site in Tigard will soon have the Commuter Rail line nearby. 2. This type of facility needs some annual, stabilizing events; i.e., Christmas Tree Lighting; Sand on the Square (sand sculptures); Seniors Dance; Flower Display/Sale, etc. He noted that City of Tigard has most of these kinds of activities as well. The Farmer's Market could be one of the stabilizing factors. He concluded saying that Site No. 1 is by far the better choice. Director Wilson asked about space requirements for the Farmer's Market. Mr. Marland Henderson advised 300 square feet per vendor is needed and the Market has 60 vendors for a total of 18,000 square feet. Parking is always an issue but Mr. Baumhofer noted that with the plans as now presented for this area, there will be residents within easy walking distance. Tyler Ellenson, Tyler's Automotive, 12485 SW Main Street, Tigard, Oregon, noted he had been very involved in these projects for the downtown about two years ago. With his new business in Wilsonville, he has not been involved. He said that as he looked at the considerations before the CCDA, he noted one is shown where his business is located. He said he learned tonight that this is might be a proposed public arts center. Site No. 6 was referred to as the Car Wash property, which is where Tyler's Automotive is located. He noted no mention was made about relocating a business nor has he been talked to about what his future plans are for his business. From what he has seen this evening he said he likes Site No. 1; however, he does have questions about how this would affect his business. As a business owner and a Tigard resident, he believes that he should have been contacted. At the "eleventh hour" he needed to let the CCDA know that he was not aware of what has been going on. He talked about the Performing Arts Center note on the map and did not see how this could exist next to his automotive business. He said he would like to have conversations about these types of things during the planning process rather than discovering it on the City's website. Tigard City Council, Local Contract Review Board, and City Center Development Agency Meeting Minutes August 28, 2007 Page 11 Director Woodruff noted his surprise that Mr. Ellenson had not been included in the planning discussions; this site has been under consideration for some time. At this time, Site No. 6, is not high on the list for sites; however, he reiterated his surprise that Mr. Ellenson had not been contacted as a property owner to discuss this. He asked if Mr. Ellenson was aware that the City will only proceed with willing sellers. Director Woodruff added that the City would certainly want to know that the property owner was amenable. Mr. Ellenson pointed out that "willing seller" suggests that his landlord Dennis Thompson is willing to sell the property; therefore, he assumes that there have been contacts to Mr. Thompson. Mr. Ellenson said he owns one of the two businesses on the property - he owns Tyler Automotive and the other business is the Car Wash. Mr. Ellenson noted he was the past President of the Tigard Central Business District and, to some degree, he helped start this grassroots effort. He said he was supportive for downtown improvement and to review options for where Tyler's Automotive might be located in the future. He commented that there are businesses in the downtown that have been there for a number of years. He again noted his concerns about not being contacted. • Chair Dirksen said he would "hate for Tyler's Automotive" to leave Tigard and would hope to convince Mr. Ellenson to stay in Tigard should he decide he wanted to leave the Downtown area.. He said that if there does come a time when the City would want to discuss another use for this property, conversations should be with the property owner as well as Mr. Ellenson. The Chair advised any discussions of an alternate location would be to determine what would be convenient for both Mr. Ellenson and the City noting the value of this business and Mr. Ellenson's contributions as an active citizen. Site No. 6 was recognized early on as one choice that would be least likely; this might be why there was no further discussions. Mr. Ellenson noted his appreciation for the Chair's comments and he is proponent for the City and the Downtown. He said he takes his responsibilities for his family and 17 employees very seriously and does not want to leave Tigard. • Director Buehner said that in the interest of not having any miscommunication in the future, she would appreciate it if staff, the consultant, and the committee members from the Task Force look at how Mr. Ellenson did not receive information. She said she would not want this to happen again. • City Manager Prosser offered his apologies to Mr. Ellenson and said this situation will be rectified. The City Council earlier this evening during the City Manager's review, set a goal that Mr. Prosser initiate more contacts and involvement in the business community. City Manager Prosser said he would be in contact with Mr. Ellenson soon. Tigard City Council, Local Contract Review Board, and City Center Development Agency Meeting Minutes August 28, 2007 Page 12 • Alice Ellis Gaut testified again. She said there are no official plans to do a Performing Arts Center on the car wash site. The only reason this came up in discussion in the Steering Committee was that it was identified as a potential compatible use because a facility could be designed in such a way that it would not need buffering from Highway 99W; the use would be compatible with that location. The concept is just that --it's conceptual. • Director Wilson responded to Mr. Ellenson's comments. When Director Wilson was serving on the Planning Commission, there was an effort by downtown businesses to form an Economic Improvement District involving a number of downtown business owners. This was the precursor to this effort. At the time, Director Wilson recalled there was a lot of discussion about whether the City supported the downtown property owners' efforts and that they needed some assistance. Director Wilson noted recent concerns about the traffic circle proposed at Ash and Burnham and how this would impact downtown business owners. Director Wilson said it is important to keep communication lines open and this takes a lot of energy from both sides to do this. Director Wilson said there is somewhat of a dilemma in that "we can't improve downtown and keep it the same at the. same time." This means there will be some relocations if there is new construction. Director Wilson acknowledged that this is a tough issue and "we would like to try and make it as painless as possible." He said it is important to keep talking to people to find out their concerns and how these can be addressed. • Director Woodruff said that a Performing Arts Center had been mentioned a few times this evening. He also noted a citizen sent the City an e-mail today with a concern that "we were talking about some kind of a Schnitzer here in Tigard and we certainly aren't suggesting that when talk about the Performing Arts Center. Director Woodruff said we are talking about an open space that would allow the availability of some kinds of arts events/displays occurring. 11 • Chair Dirksen noted there is some discussion that at some point in the downtown area, it might be appropriate to do an indoor performing center, perhaps adjacent to this site. Chair Dirksen said the Plaza and the open space is not the Performing Arts Center; an indoor space is still under consideration although it will be sometime in the future before sufficient funds would be available from the urban renewal district. • Director Sherwood advised that the CCDA/Council deliberately left "eminent domain" off of the urban renewal process. Anything the City did would be friendly and the City would work with people as much as we can to make any kind of transition, purchase, or development work for everyone. This is a commitment. Tigard City Council, Local Contract Review Board, and City Center Development Agency Meeting Minutes August 28, 2007 Page 13 • Director Buehner reminded everyone that there is a "Brown Bag" at the Chamber of Commerce every month about the downtown process; so, if anyone is interested in what is going on, they are welcome to attend this meeting. e. Staff Recommendation: Senior Planner Nachbar advised the staff recommendation is to endorse the Stevens Marine site as the location of the public Plaza for downtown and to endorse the Concept Plan surrounding Plaza. f. CCDA Discussion • Director Woodruff commented on the unanimity of the selection of the site coming from different people with different perspectives. He advised he has liked this proposal since the beginning. • Director Wilson noted two things are under consideration by the CCDA: 1. Selecting the site, and 2. Endorsing the concept. He said he favored the site. He noted he liked the Concept Plan in general terms; however, he referenced the Plaza size of about 10,000 square feet and the need for a Farmer's Market to have 18,000 square feet. He noted he was concerned about the size and hoped there would be a review the hard-surfaced area to determine if it is adequate. Director Wilson noted another concern about the street that surrounds the housing, which will take a "chunk" out of both the park and the Plaza space. He said he hoped that this could be designed in such a way so it is ambiguous as to whether you are supposed to drive on it or not; not have it be a standard street. He suggested it be used as a Plaza which could be driven on rather than a regular street. • Director Wilson commented he had heard that the Tualatin Riverkeepers were concerned about his earlier suggestion for encroaching on the buffer in the park. He clarified what he meant by reviewing the Scheme #1, Stevens Marine Site map. He said only a sliver of the park area is being shown as an active use area. He said in his profession he works with the agencies' regulations and he is knowledgeable about the purposes of the regulations. For example, the Army Corps of Engineers and the Department of Environmental Quality regulate the filling of wetlands. In addition, Clean Water Services imposes a buffer area and for Fanno Creek, one is required to add beyond the wetlands and stream a 50-foot buffer setback. Even if that were currently a paved parking lot, you would be required to tear it up and plant native vegetation and fence the edge of it; although local jurisdictions can waive the fence requirement. Director Wilson noted his concern is that this would be giving up space that could be actively used; he hoped the City could work with Clean Water Services to relax that standard in certain instances. It is very important that a stream such as Fanno Creek, which has a huge watershed through an urban area, could have some points along it Tigard City Council, Local Contract Review Board, and City Center Development Agency Meeting Minutes August 28, 2007 Page 14 where people could get close to the stream to appreciate it. We currently have a pathway, but there should be some places where there are open lawn areas next to the stream. • Director Sherwood said she has heard from Tualatin Riverkeepers member Brian Wegener that there are homeless people sleeping in that natural area near Fanno Creek. She noted her concern for the City of Tigard where there are overgrown, dense areas, which are a danger to citizens using the park areas. She hope there are ways to open up some of the natural area for people to access the creek and feel safe at the same time. Director Sherwood noted her support for the Stevens Marine Property for the Plaza location. • Director Wilson referred to areas on a map labeled "housing" and the area for a possible performing arts housing. Senior Planner Nachbar clarified this does not exclusively mean housing; for example, the ground floor could be flexibly designed so it could eventually become retail space. The initial thought of the consultant was there might not be the demand now for retail, but it time there could be. Director Wilson said he supported this and also eventually he would like to see Burnham Street have ground floor retail areas. Also, while it is controversial to connect Ash Street through to the downtown, Director Wilson noted that if it did go through, it would draw about 6,000 cars per day, which would be enough to support retail. • Director Buchner noted she became involved in the process somewhat late; however, since becoming involved, it became clear to her that it was the desire of the public to have a public space at this site. She has been a strong supporter of the Stevens Marine site for a long time. She noted a similar concern to Director Wilson's regarding the size of the hardscape area of the Plaza to accommodate a use such as a Farmer's Market. There is a need to take a second look at the size of the proposed hardscape Plaza. • Senior Planner Nachbar responded to Director Buchner and said one of the initial thoughts was that with closure of the street next to the Plaza, this could be the space necessary to have a larger 20,000 square foot Plaza. Therefore, it is not a foregone conclusion that the Plaza itself has to be 20,000 square feet. • Director Buchner said this would impact whether the street would be a public street. Senior Planner Nachbar said the concept that is being considered is that the area would be constructed with brick pavers that could be used by cars, but would be pedestrian oriented and traffic would move very slowly through with the ability to close off the area for additional Plaza space. Tigard City Council, Local Contract Review Board, and City Center Development Agency Meeting Minutes August 28, 2007 Page 15 • Director Buehner thanked all of the members of the Task Force and the City Center Advisory Commission who worked on this process. • Director Woodruff said he recently attended the West Linn Farmer's Market, which is held on wide streets along the sidewalk. • Chair Dirksen said he supports Director Wilson's comments with regard to the circulation streets and the park with regard to active and passive use.; it should be flexible. He encouraged the Fanno Creek Master Plan Steering Committee to work with the different agencies to discuss what can and cannot be used within the confines of the law and what kind of flexibility there might be. If we "wall off' the park from our citizens so they cannot interact with it, then they will not care about it and, in the end, will be less environmentally positive than if we open up the space, allow people to use it, and embrace it to appreciate it. Chair Dirksen said that it is his understanding that when "we approve" the Concept Plan, that it is a plan that is a concept and there is room for flexibility and design guidelines that need to come forward. As it develops, it will mature into its final product. Chair Dirksen said that "What we approving tonight is the general location of the Plaza and also the general concepts of the development around it." • Director Wilson added comments regarding the urban creek idea and Marland Henderson's concept of water from Clean Water Services treatment plant. Currently, the water is too warm. The idea is that if the water were to be pumped underground for about a mile to the site, it could be discharged into the urban stream, which would then go to Fanno Creek. While it is a concept at this point, it is an idea that should be explored to help increase flows in the creek with water that is near drinking-water quality. g. Chair Dirksen closed the public hearing. h. CCDA Consideration: CCDA Resolution No. 07-03 Motion by Director Woodruff, seconded by Director Sherwood, to adopt Resolution No. 07-03, relating to Scheme 1, the Stevens Marine site.

INFORMATIONAL PUBLIC HEARING: READOPTION OF RESOLUTION NO. 07-50 FORMING SANITARY SEWER REIMBURSEMENT DISTRICT NO. 44 (SW CHERRY DRIVE) WITH REVISED EXHIBITS a. Mayor Dirksen opened the public hearing. b. City Engineer Duenas presented the staff report. The PowerPoint presentation overview is on file in the City Recorder's office. On July 24, 2007, the City Council approved a resolution to form the district, but directed staff to remove four lots, which will be served through a rear alignment to those properties. Now, there are 19 lots in the proposed district. City Engineer Duenas reviewed the comparison costs; the cost for an average lot is about $24,388. For all 19 lots, the estimated cost $463,364. Mr. Duenas reviewed the incentive program and deferrals available. This project is planned to be done this fall. One lot is experiencing septic system problems. The final cost will be based on actual construction costs plus the 13- 1/2 percent engineering an inspection fees. After the work has completed the district will be brought back to the City Council for finalization. City Engineer Duenas requested that once the City Council approves the resolution for form the district that once the project has been completed and accepted that an early connection be made for the one lot experiencing the septic problem and not wait until the City Council approves the finalization. Tigard City Council, Local Contract Review Board, and City Center Development Agency Meeting Minutes August 28, 2007 Page 17 c. Councilor Sherwood asked if this project would be started as soon as City Council approves the resolution. City Engineer Duenas advised the project must be bid out; the design has been completed. In response to Councilor Buehner, City Engineer Duenas advised the project could probably be started after the bid award, which is anticipated to be ready in about six weeks. Councilor Wilson asked if the removal of the four lots allowed for a reduction in the depth of the trenches. City Engineer Duenas said yes the depth was reduced; however, with the removal of the four lots the savings were offset because now there are only 19 lots sharing in the cost of the district rather than 23. Mayor Dirksen and the City Engineer reviewed the final costs for this district and the separate district for the other four lots; this is a slightly more expensive alternative. City Engineer Duenas noted some of the lots would have needed to pump the sewer; with the new design, no pumps will be needed. d. Public testimony: None. e. City Engineer Duenas advised that staff recommends the City Council approve the readoption of the resolution with the corrected exhibits. Councilor Wilson said he understands why lots should not be served from the rear because of difficulties for maintenance (access). Even though this alternative is a little more expensive, it is better for those that we are serving because no pumping will be needed. Councilor Buehner asked if appropriate easements will be acquired to facilitate access for maintenance. City Engineer Duenas said acquiring easements will be part of the project. Councilor Woodruff asked if the residents have been advised of the changes in costs. City Engineer Duenas said he has not heard any negative comments and described the staff's work with the residents. f. Mayor Dirksen closed the public hearing. g. Council Consideration: Re-adoption of Resolution No. 07-50 Motion by Councilor Buehner, seconded by Councilor Woodruff, to readopt Resolution No. 07-50. READOPTION OF RESOLUTION NO. 07-50 - A RESOLUTION ESTABLISHING SANITARY SEWER REIMBURSEMENT DISTRICT NO. 44 (SW CHERRY DRIVE) The motion was approved by a unanimous vote of Council present.

He said that Tigard's Comprehensive Plan effort that began about two years ago is premised on determination of citizen values and development of ideas for goals, policies, and action items through a variety of citizen meetings, followed by review by boards and commissions, and then eventually forwarded to the City Council for adoption. This is the framework to follow under Oregon law. Mr. Frewing referred to the incorporation of values through visioning documents and open houses. The process had moved forward with some staff work and presentation of data. Now Policy Interest Teams are meeting. Mr. Frewing said the new Comprehensive Plan will either reinforce our current policies, practices, and goals or to create new ones. A staff-prepared May 14 document refers to department review teams, which says that the primary duty is to review the goals, policies, and action measures to ensure compatibility with department work programs and projects. Mr. Frewing said that, to him, this violates the whole idea of the Comprehensive Plan - that the staff is going to make sure that any new policies are compatible with the historic and current practices, policies, preferences, and priorities of staff. He said this was not the job of staff. Mr. Frewing said. the Park and Recreation Board met last night. He has been a member of the Policy Interest Team that worked on development of goals, policies, and action items. He learned the City Manager directed that some of the policies be deleted and not considered. Mr. Frewing said it seemed to him that if the City Council wants to delete those policies and action items, that would be acceptable. He did not think the City Manager should be deleting items at this stage and said it night invalidate the Comprehensive Plan process completed so far. He asked the City Council direct the City Manager to not interfere in the development of policies until they get to the City Council. At that time, then the City Manager should state his opinion as would anyone else. Mr. Frewing advised that the stricken policy and action items related to the creation of a city recreation program in addition to a parks land acquisition program. Mr. Frewing said he was not personally a fan of the city recreation program, but the Policy Interest Team and surveys that the Park and Recreation Board have done over the last two or three years all showed significant interest for a city recreation program. He did not think this should have been stricken from the proposals on the basis that it was not funded. He asked the City Citizen Communications August 14, 2007 Page 1 4 Council to direct the City Manager that these types of things go forward until the Council has made its decision. City Manager Prosser said clarification should be made; he did not direct that anything be stricken. He reported that the initial draft of the proposed action items regarding the recreation program had been written with general language suggesting that the City look into creating a recreation program. The second draft came back with very specific language saying that the City would place an operating levy on the ballot between November 2008 and November 2010. City Manager Prosser noted that this issue was brought to the City's Budget Committee, also a citizen group, and that was not the direction from the Budget Committee. This was setting up a conflict so City Manager Prosser suggested that the language was overly specific and probably did not belong in a policy document such as the Comprehensive Plan. Mayor Dirksen asked where the change to more specific language originated. City Manager Prosser said that was not clear and because the language was so specific, it would have committed the City to a course of action that had been turned down by the Budget Committee. The language was revised to convey that the City would "consider developing a recreation program and placing a funding measure before the voters." This language, City Manager Prosser said, represented the basic intent. Councilor Sherwood advised she thought this more general language was reasonable~ ids, she would not want language to be specific. Councilor Buehner agreed an~'said specific language would set up unrealistic expectations. Councilor Sherwood added such specific language might lead someone to expect that an election would be held by a certain date. Mr. Frewing said staff has worked with the Policy Interest Team (citizens) to create the language. There were 10-12 changes that staff had said the City Manager said should be made. City Manager Prosser advised the only issue he gave input on was for the recreation program item. Mr. Frewing read one of the proposed policies that had been removed: "The City shall identify funding to build recreational facilities and provide a full-service recreational program." This was a recommendation from the Policy Interest Team and endorsed by the Park and Recreation Board according to Mr. Frewing. At the meeting last night, the document contained staff commentary stating: "Concerns have been raised that this policy is premature because the City must first assess the need, willingness, and ability of the community to pay for recreation services and related facilities. This is•a fiscal issue that must be addressed prior to making policy." Mr. Frewing said that nothing would happen if we had to wait to identify the financial details. He said he thought it was sound to propose a policy, and acknowledged the City Council, as the decision makers, might decide against the proposed policy. Councilor Buehner said the City Council did make a policy decision at the time of the budget. Mr. Frewing pointed out that this decision was for the year 2007/08. Councilor Buehner noted this was relating to whether the City was going to consider funding any kind of recreation program in the next three or Citizen Communications A agust 14, 2007 Page 2 four years. This was the decision made and staff was following up on that policy decision. Mr. Frewing said he disagreed; what the City Council acted on was the budget for the coming year. At the Budget meeting, Mr. Frewing pointed out the City Council said a recreation program was a good idea, but it could not be afforded now. Mr. Frewing said his objection is that the staff gets "into this" through a staff-review process and also through a final cut before it receives a full airing before the City Council. Councilor Woodruff asked Mr. Frewing if his point was that anything coming from the Policy Interest Teams or the advisory committees should be unfiltered until it gets to the City Council. Mr. Frewing confirmed that Councilor Woodruff's statement was correct. He said the recommendation would go to the Planning Commission from the Policy Interest Team. This would be the process to winnow the document. If the Planning Commission wants to delete a policy, he believed they could do so. After review by the Planning Commission, the City Council would have the ability to add or delete items in the document. He reiterated that staff should not be able to review the proposals for consistency with department work programs and projects. He added the City Manager should not be able to direct that items be deleted because the funding is not yet clear. He said there are many proposals in the Comprehensive Plan draft material where funding is not yet clear. The Comprehensive Plan is a 20-year plan. ' Mayor Dirksen said he agreed with the philosophy of Mr. Frewing that if these are recommendations that are coming out of the policy action groups, then they should come to the Planning Commission and the City Council unfiltered so these bodies can see what the recommendations are. Mayor Dirksen noted adjustments might be made. There was agreement that staff commentary would be appropriate. Councilor Buchner said she did not agree with the Budget Committee as she thought we needed to go ahead with a recreation plan. But, since there was unwillingness to commit for a three-year period, she went along with the group because it did not make sense to try to do a program for one year. Councilor Buchner said she thought the Budget Committee had made a very clear policy decision and she did not want to see this proposal again. Mayor Dirksen said he thought the City Council should give the policy action groups a clear field; that is, "we get from them whatever we get from them." Councilor Woodruff commented that the recommendation for the recreation program had come from Park and Recreation Board to the Budget Committee. If a broader interest group was now proposing the program, he did not think it would be unreasonable for this to be part of the document. He added that the Budget Committee has already indicated some concerns about this program, but he would not have a problem in looking at this. Mr. Frewing agreed with Councilor Woodruff and said that next year the City Council might or might not decide to place something on the ballot for recreation. Councilor Sherwood said her concern was to add specific language about how the program is to be Citizen Communications August 14, 2007 Page 3 Y Y created. Mayor Dirksen said he thought it would be all right to keep this language while Councilor Sherwood noted that the City Council looks to staff for a detailed review of the document. Councilor Buehner again said she did not want to see any recommendation for a ballot measure in 2008, when a policy decision has already been made. Councilor Woodruff said City Manager Prosser's suggestion that the language be more general was something that should come to the City Council. City Manager Prosser said he had concerns about the specific time frames. He said Mr. Frewing was correct about other language that had been removed; however, this language was duplicative. There is still language in the document that says the City will consider creating a recreation program. City Attorney Ramis noted there will be a legal review of the document. Legal counsel will be looking at the document with regard to its legal sufficiency and enforceability. The distinction the attorneys will be looking for in the language is what language shall be enforceable policy and what language is intended to be aspirational. It is critical that as the City Council reviews the document, it distinguishes between what it intends to be legally enforceable and what is an aspiration that the City might want to pursue irr the future. City Attorney Ramis added that this is a legal document that can be brought to the Land Use Board of Appeals to be enforced. Councilor Wilson said the Comprehensive Plan sets the parameters for the zoning ordinance. What is being discussed at this time is a new City service. He asked whether non-land use related items should be considered. City Manager Prosser advised that a briefing on the Comprehensive Plan process is scheduled for next week's Council meeting; he suggested this matter could be discussed in more detail at that meeting. City Manager Prosser said we were hoping to have broader Comprehensive Plan to set the overall direction for the City, not just for land use, but for what we want to aspire to and achieve in the City of Tigard. Proposed chapters of the Comprehensive Plan will soon be forwarded to the Planning Commission and then will also eventually come before the City Council chapter by chapter. He acknowledged that he and Mr. Frewing have differing viewpoints. Councilor Sherwood suggested to Mr. Frewing that he call the City Manager when he has concerns. Mr. Frewing said this had come up late yesterday evening. o Follow up to previous citizen communication: City Manager Prosser reviewed that Mr. Frewing had brought up concerns about construction activity at Ash Creek Estates. Staff reviewed these concerns and replied to Mr. Frewing in an e- mail communication that was sent out today. The City's new arborist toured the site with the developer. The arborist confirmed that the tree-protection fencing is back in place. Dirt had been moved within the tree-protection zone and this has been cleaned up. The arborist verified that the proper protection measures are in place and reiterated with the builder the importance of making sure those Citizen Communications August 14, 2007 Page 4 Y measures are not even temporarily breached. The City's arborist also visited with the project arborist to stress the importance of the same items that had been reviewed with the builder. i:ladmlca111y%ccm4itizen communicalion follow up1070814 cif com.doc Citizen Communications August 14, 2007 Page 5 Agenda Item # Meeting Date August 28, 2007 COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY City Of Tigard, Oregon Issue/Agenda Title Re-Approval of Libra Policies Prepared By: Margaret Barnes/Ahson Grimes Dept Head Approval: City Mgr Approval: CY W ISSUE BEFORE THE COUNCIL Re-approve policies for the Tigard Library as recommended by the Tigard Library Board STAFF RECOMMENDATION Request re-approval of the attached policies as recommended by the Tigard Library Board and as stated in the Tigard Municipal Code, Section 2.36.040.

MISSION STATEMENT: To provide a current, responsive collection of library materials to meet the needs and interests of the diverse and growing Tigard community. II. PURPOSE OF THE COLLECTION DEVELOPMENT POLICY: The purpose of this collection development policy is to establish the guidelines for the selection of materials in the Library's collection. Its intent is to develop the collection to reflect the needs and interests of a diverse community and to establish a plan for the selection of materials. Specific information regarding the library's collection and guidelines for acquisition of materials is contained in the Collection Development Procedures Manual. Ill. RESPONSIBILITY FOR COLLECTION DEVELOPMENT: The Library Board has the authority to determine the selection and acquisition policy. Final responsibility for selection of materials rests with the Library Director, who may delegate some or all of the selection to professional staff. Any staff member or citizen may submit suggestions for purchase of materials; professional staff will consider these suggestions on a regular basis according to the selection criteria. IV. OBJECTIVES OF COLLECTION DEVELOPMENT: The library will acquire, organize, make available and encourage the use of all media that: • contributes constructively to the individual's awareness of self and community while providing insight into a wide range of human and social conditions and various cultural heritages • encourages informational self education • meets the informational and recreational needs of the entire community I:\Lib\Library Policies and Procedures\Collection Development Policy - revised 10-16-03 Attachment #1 Tigard Public Library Adopted by the Tigard Library Board November 13, 2003 stimulates thoughtful participation in the affairs of the community, the state, the nation, and the world • gives access to a variety of opinions on matters of current interest • assists the individual to grow intellectually and culturally • reflects minority opinions as well as those of the majority V. GENERAL PRINCIPLES AND CRITERIA FOR SELECTION: The library's collection is essentially a popular and informational one. It exists to serve the recreational, educational and self-help needs of the library's patrons. Multiple copies of titles may be purchased as determined by popular demand. The library will not attempt to create a research collection, but will select basic, representative works in most subject areas. Additionally, although an effort will be made to collect popular works by local authors, no attempt will be made to develop a comprehensive local author collection. Materials acquired will be selected on the basis of the following criteria: 1. Current and anticipated needs and interests of the public 2. Accuracy of content 3. Timeliness of information 4. Author's, artist's or publisher's qualifications and/or reputation 5. Evaluations in review media 6. Contribution to diversity or breadth of collections. 7. Presentation of unique or controversial points of view. 8. Receipt of or nomination for major awards or prizes 9. Quality of production These selection standards also apply to materials received as gifts or donations. The Tigard Public Library endorses the material selection principles contained in the following statements of principles adopted by the American Library Association: A. The Library Bill of Rights B. The Freedom to Read statement C. The Freedom to View statement D. Free Access to Libraries by Minors E. Economic Barriers to Information Access VI. COLLECTION MAINTENANCE: Materials which are no longer useful in light of stated objectives of the library will be systematically withdrawn from the collection according to accepted professional practices. Withdrawn items will be disposed of by one of the following means: 1:\Lib\Library Policies and Procedures\Collection Development Policy -revised 10-16-03 Tigard Public Library Adopted by the Tigard Library Board November 13, 2003 A. Gifts to other libraries B. Book sales for Friends of the Library C. Recycling D. Discarding VII. GIFTS: The Library will accept monetary donations and gifts of material with the understanding that gifts of materials will be added to the collection only if they meet the same standards of value required of materials purchased by the Library. Gift materials not meeting those standards, i.e., those that are out of date, unneeded duplicates of items already owned, or those in a form unsuitable for library use, may be given to other organizations, sold, exchanged, or discarded. Ultimate responsibility for inclusion of materials in the library collection lies with the library director or his/her designated representative. Contributions of materials are deductible for income tax purposes to the extent allowed by law. Appraisal remains the responsibility of the donor. When a monetary donation for materials is made, it will be determined whether the gift is designated for a certain item or general category. Patrons who provide donations to be used for acquiring materials are requested to permit library staff to select specific titles which may meet the wishes of the donor, satisfy selection criteria, and are appropriate for the general public. VIII. RECONSIDERATION OF LIBRARY MATERIALS: As the Library strives to provide books and other materials for the interest, information and enlightenment of all people in the community, there may be disagreements on the merit of various items. Therefore, the following procedures will apply in responding to complaints: A. Recognizing that citizens have the right to question Library decisions, the Library staff will first try to determine the basis of the individual's request. 1. If the individual is seeking information about why the item has been selected, the matter will be handled informally by a professional librarian. Such a request is an opportunity to explain the mission of the Library and the guarantee of our freedom to read under the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. 2. If the individual objects to the material being available and wishes to have the material removed from the Library or relocated within the Library, then he or she will be furnished with the "Request for Reconsideration of Library Materials" Form, which must be filled out completely before the item will be reconsidered. The material I:\Lib\Library Policies and Procedures\Collection Development Policy - revised 10-16-03 Tigard Public Library Adopted by the Tigard Library Board November 13, 2003 I under question will remain in the active collection until a final decision is made. B. A committee of three staff members, consisting of one staff member from Readers Services, the Manager of Readers Services and an additional Management group representative, will review the item in question to determine the Reconsideration Request form. This review will be initiated within 10 days of the receipt of the Reconsideration Request form. After their review, the Manager of Readers Services will communicate the response of the committee to the individual making the reconsideration request. C. If the individual wishes to contest this committee's decision, a committee consisting of one member of the Tigard Library Board, one staff member from Reader's Services and one staff member from Library Administration will then consider the comments on the form and examine the item in question. The committee will seek reviews of the item in question and determine whether it conforms to the guidelines as stated in the Collection Development Procedures Manual. This review will be initiated within 10 days of receipt of the requestor's appeal for reconsideration of the item in question, and must be completed within 60 days. Based on the written recommendation of the committee, the Library Director will decide whether to retain, withdraw, restrict or relocate the material in question and will provide a written response giving the reasons for the decision. D. If the individual inquiring wishes to contest the Library Director's decision, the Library Director will forward the "Request for Reconsideration of Library Materials" form to the Tigard Library Board as an agenda item for its next regularly scheduled meeting. The Library Director will also arrange for the questioner to be invited to attend the meeting. The Board will consider the requester's statement and the Library Director's recommendation. The Library Board will make its decision based on the policy as stated in the Collection Development Policy in the Tigard Public Library Policies and Procedures Manual and the Collection Development Procedures Manual. E. If the questioner contests the Library Board's decision, the Library Director will forward the "Request for Reconsideration of Library Materials" form to the Tigard City Manager. IX. LIMITS ON THE COLLECTION: Due to various constraints of budget, space, limited audience and other limitations, the Library is not able to collect many of the following items: I:\Lib\Library Policies and Procedures\Collection Development Policy -revised 10-16-03 Tigard Public Library Adopted by the Tigard Library Board November 13, 2003 A.

Signature I:\Lib\Library Policies and Procedures\Collection Development Policy - revised 10-16-03 Tigard Public Library Adopted by the Tigard Library Board March 6, 2003 1 CONFIDENTIALITY OF LIBRARY RECORDS POLICY The Tigard Public Library recognizes that all library users, regardless of age, have the right to confidentiality and privacy with respect to information sought or received and resources consulted, borrowed, acquired or transmitted. User records of the Tigard Public Library showing 1) use of specific library materials consulted, borrowed, acquired or transmitted, by a named person; or 2) consisting of the name of a library patron together with the person's address or telephone number, or both, are conditionally exempt from disclosure. These records include, but are not limited to: 9 Circulation records • Borrower registration records • Records created to facilitate access to and/or use of library information, materials and services. Tigard Public Library reserves the right to use library records for administrative purposes, such as recovering overdue materials, payment for lost items, customer surveys and other administrative mailings. Circulation and registration records may be used only by a library employee working within the scope of his or her duties or by outside agencies charged with the enforcement of library rules and policies or collection of library property, unpaid fees, fines or other charges. The Tigard Public Library recognizes that the disclosure of a person's record showing specific library use is an invasion of privacy. Circulation records will not be divulged voluntarily to anyone except the patron or someone who can produce the patron's library card number. User records will be provided pursuant to lawfully issued subpoenas or warrants issued by a court of competent jurisdiction. When a subpoena or warrant is served on the Library, the subpoena or warrant shall be delivered to the Library Director or designee, who shall guide the Library's response. The Library Director may consult with the City Attorney if served with a subpoena or warrant. Rationale Protecting the privacy and confidentiality of library users is a fundamental library value. Oregon State Law recognizes the Tigard Public Library as a public body subject to the Public Records Law. However, ORS 192.502.22 provides the following exemption from disclosure of library public records: H:\Employee Manuals\Management Employee\Section 6 - Confidentiality and Intellectual Freedom\Confidentiality of Library Records Policy.doc 9/19/03 Attachment #2 Tigard Public Library Adopted by the Tigard Library Board March 6, 2003 "The records of a library, including circulation records, showing use of a specific library i material by a named person or consisting of the name of a library patron together with the address or telephone number, or both, of the patron." This law allows the library to set policies to protect library circulation and registrations records from disclosure. In setting these policies, the library tries to strike a balance between the privacy of the user and convenience for that same user. Adopted by the Tigard Library Board March 6, 2003. i H:\Employee Manuals\Management Employee\Section 6 - Confidentiality and Intellectual Freedom\Confidentiality of Library Records Policy.doc 9/19/03 Tigard Public Library Endorsed and reaffirmed by the Tigard Library Board September 14, 2006 Library Bill of Rights The American Library Association affirms that all libraries are forums for information and ideas, and that the following basic policies should guide their services. 1. Books and other library resources should be provided for the interest, information and enlightenment of all people of the community the library serves. Materials should not be excluded because of the origin, background or views of those contributing to their creation. H. Libraries should provide materials and information presenting all points of view on current and historical issues. Materials should not be proscribed or removed because of partisan or doctrinal disapproval. III. Libraries should challenge censorship in the fulfillment of their responsibility to provide information and enlightenment. IV. Libraries should cooperate with all persons and groups concerned with resisting abridgment of free expression and free access to ideas. V. A person's right to use a library should not be denied or abridged because of origin, age, background or views. VI. Libraries which make exhibit spaces and meeting rooms available to the public they serve should make such facilities available on an equitable basis, regardless of the beliefs or affiliations of individuals or groups requesting their use. Adopted June 18, 1948. Amended February 2, 1961, and January 23, 1980, inclusion of "age" reaffirmed January 23, 1996, by the ALA Council. Endorsed and reaffirmed by the Tigard Library Board, September 14, 2006. Attachment #3 Tigard Public Library Endorsed and reaffirmed by the Tigard Library Board September, 14, 2006 The Freedom to Read The freedom to read is essential to our democracy. It is continuously under attack. Private groups and public authorities in various parts of the country are working to remove or limit access to reading materials, to censor content in schools, to label "controversial" views, to distribute lists of "objectionable" books or authors and to purge libraries. These actions apparently rise from a view that our national tradition of free expression is no longer valid; that censorship and suppression are needed to counter threats to safety or national security, as well as to avoid the subversion of politics and the corruption of morals. We, as individuals devoted to reading and as librarians and publishers responsible for disseminating ideas, wish to assert the public interest in the preservation of the freedom to read. Most attempts at suppression rest on a denial of the fundamental premise of democracy: that the ordinary individual, by exercising critical judgment, will select the good and reject the bad. We trust Americans to recognize propaganda and misinformation, and to make their own decisions about what they read and believe. We do not believe they are prepared to sacrifice their heritage of a free press in order to be "protected" against what others think may be bad for them. We believe they still favor free enterprise in ideas and expression. I These efforts at suppression are related to a larger pattern of pressures being brought against education, the press, art and images, films, broadcast media and the Internet. The problem is not only one of actual censorship. The shadow of fear cast by these pressures leads, we suspect, to an even larger voluntary curtailment of expression by those who seek to avoid controversy or unwelcome scrutiny by government officials. Such pressure toward conformity is perhaps natural to a time of accelerated change. And yet suppression is never more dangerous than in such a time of social tension. Freedom has given the United States the elasticity to endure strain. Freedom keeps open the path of novel and creative solutions, and enables change to come by choice. Every silencing of a heresy, every enforcement of an orthodoxy, diminishes the toughness and resilience of our society and leaves it the less able to deal with controversy and difference. Now as always in our history, reading is among our greatest freedoms. The freedom to read and write is almost the only means for making generally available ideas or manners of expression that can initially command only a small audience. The written word is the natural medium for the new idea and the untried voice from which come the original contributions to social growth. It is essential to the extended discussion that serious thought requires, and to the accumulation of knowledge and ideas into organized collections. Attachment #4 Tigard Public Library Endorsed and reaffirmed by the Tigard Library Board September, 14, 2006 We believe that free communication is essential to the preservation of a free society and a creative culture. We believe that these pressures toward conformity present the danger of limiting the range and variety of inquiry and expression on which our democracy and our culture depend. We believe that every American community must jealously guard the freedom to publish and to circulate, in order to preserve its own freedom to read. We believe that publishers and librarians have a profound responsibility to give validity to that freedom to read by making it possible for the readers to choose freely from a variety of offerings. The freedom to read is guaranteed by the Constitution. Those with faith in free people. will stand firm on these constitutional guarantees of essential rights and will exercise the responsibilities that accompany these rights. We therefore affirm these propositions: 1. It is in the public interest for publishers and librarians to make available the widest diversity of views and expressions, including those that are unorthodox, unpopular, or considered dangerous by the majority. Creative thought is by definition new, and what is new is different. The bearer of every new thought is a rebel until that idea is refined and tested. Totalitarian systems attempt to maintain themselves in power by the ruthless suppression of any concept that challenges the established orthodoxy. The power of a democratic system to adapt to change is vastly strengthened by the freedom of its citizens to choose widely from among conflicting opinions offered freely to them. To stifle every nonconformist idea at birth would mark the end of the democratic process. Furthermore, only through the constant activity of weighing and selecting can the democratic mind attain the strength demanded by times like these. We need to know not only what we believe but why we believe it. 2. Publishers, librarians and booksellers do not need to endorse every idea or presentation they make available. It would conflict with the public interest for them to establish their own political, moral, or aesthetic views as a standard for determining what should be published or circulated. Publishers and librarians serve the educational process by helping to make available knowledge and ideas required for the growth of the mind and the increase of learning. They do not foster education by imposing as mentors the patterns of their own thought. The people should have the freedom to read and consider a broader range of ideas than those that may be held by any single librarian or publisher or government or church. It is wrong that what one can read should be confined to what another thinks proper. Tigard Public Library Endorsed and reaffirmed by the Tigard Library Board September, 14, 2006 3. It is contrary to the public interest for publishers or librarians to bar access to writings on the basis of the personal history or political affiliations of the author. No art or literature can flourish if it is to be measured by the political views or private lives of its creators. No society of free people can flourish that draws up lists of writers to whom it will not listen, whatever they may have to say. 4. There is no place in our society for efforts to coerce the taste of others, to confine adults to the reading matter deemed suitable for adolescents, or to inhibit the efforts of writers to achieve artistic expression. To some, much of modern expression is shocking. But is not much of life itself shocking? We cut off literature at the source if we prevent writers from dealing with the stuff of life. Parents and teachers have a responsibility to prepare the young to meet the diversity of experiences in life to which they will be exposed, as they have a responsibility to help them learn to think critically for themselves. These are affirmative responsibilities, not to be discharged simply by preventing them from reading works for which they are not yet prepared. In these matters values differ, and values cannot be legislated; nor can machinery be devised that will suit the demands of one group without limiting the freedom of others. 5. It is not in the public interest to force a reader to accept the prejudgment of a label characterizing any expression or its author as subversive or dangerous. The ideal of labeling presupposes the existence of individuals or groups with wisdom to determine by authority what is good or bad for others. It presupposes that individuals must be directed in making up their minds about the ideas they examine. But Americans do not need others to do their thinking for them. 6. It is the responsibility of publishers and librarians, as guardians of the people's freedom to read, to contest encroachments upon that freedom by individuals or groups seeking to impose their own standards or tastes upon the community at large; and by the government whenever it seeks to reduce or deny public access to public information.. It is inevitable in the give and take of the democratic process that the political, the moral, or the aesthetic concepts of an individual or group will occasionally collide with those of another individual or group. In a free society individuals are free to determine for themselves what they wish to read, and each group is free to determine what it will recommend to its freely associated members. But no group has the right to take the law into its own hands, and to impose its own concept of politics or morality upon other members of a democratic society. Freedom is no freedom if it is accorded only to the accepted and the inoffensive. Further, democratic societies are more safe, free, and creative when the free flow of public information is not restricted by governmental prerogative or self-censorship. Tigard Public Library Endorsed and reaffirmed by the Tigard Library Board September, 14, 2006 7. It is the responsibility of publishers and librarians to give full meaning to the freedom to read by providing books that enrich the quality and diversity of thought and expression. By the exercise of this affirmative responsibility, they can demonstrate that the answer to a "bad" book is a good one, the answer to a "bad" idea is a good one. The freedom to read is of little consequence when the reader cannot obtain matter fit for that reader's purpose. What is needed is not only the absence of restraint, but the positive provision of opportunity for the people to read the best that has been thought and said. Books are the major channel by which the intellectual inheritance is handed down, and the principle means of its testing and growth. The defense of the freedom to read requires of all publishers and librarians the utmost of their faculties, and deserves of all Americans the fullest of their support. We state these propositions neither lightly nor as easy generalizations. We here stake out a lofty claim for the value of the written word. We do so because we believe that it is possessed of enormous variety and usefulness, worthy of cherishing and keeping free. We realize that the application of these propositions may mean the dissemination of ideas and manners of expression that are repugnant to many persons. We do not state these propositions in the comfortable belief that what people read is unimportant. We believe rather that what people read is deeply important; that ideas can be dangerous; but that the suppression of ideas is fatal to a democratic society. Freedom itself is a dangerous way of life, but it is ours.

Agenda Item # Meeting Date August 28, 2007 COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY City Of Tigard, Oregon Issue/Agenda Title: Authorize the Mayor to Sign the King City Urban Service Agreement Prepared By: Ron Bunch Dept Head Approval: City Mgr Approval: ISSUE BEFORE THE COUNCIL Council is requested to approve a resolution authorizing the Mayor to execute the King City Urban Service Agreement and Addendum for the purpose of identifying Tigard's and King City's common Urban Services boundaries. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that Council authorize the Mayor to execute the King City Urban Service Agreement and Addendum. KEY FACTS AND INFORMATION SUMMARY The King City Urban Service Agreement and its addendum are before Council because Washington County desires to implement state Senate Bill 122 which was codified within ORS 195, Local Government Planning Coordination. The statute requires local governments to coordinate the establishment of urban service boundaries and adopt urban service agreements for all territory inside the Metro Urban Growth Boundary. This .includes incorporated and unincorporated areas. The urban services agreements are required to coordinate urban service boundaries. and identify agencies and jurisdictions that currently provide services to local government entities and those that will do so in the future. It is important to note that Tigard is not designated as a current or long term service provider to King City. However, Washington County requests that Tigard be parry to the agreement only for the purpose of shared urban service boundaries with King City. The same request has been made of Tualatin. The common urban service boundary between the King City and Tigard Urban Service Areas is the centerline of Beef Bend Road and the western right-of-way line of Highway 99W as shown in the Urban Service Agreement on Map A of the Agreement. The Agreement is specific that, "Tigard, which is not a service provider to the King City Urban Services Area, is a party to the agreement solely for the purpose of designating the common boundary between these urban service areas." Tigard is also requested to sign an addendum to the Agreement because Tualatin requested further clarification of their role as a signatory. An addendum was necessary because Tualatin made its request after the County distributed the "final agreement" for adoption by affected local governments. The addendum clarifies that Tualatin is bound by the agreement only for the purposes of designating a common boundary between it and King City's urban service areas and that it has no other obligations or responsibilities regarding the remaining portions of the agreement. Staff considered whether Tigard should consider the same type of amendment. It was found not necessary. The reason is that the subject agreement is sufficiently specific regarding Tigard's role. The Tigard Urban Service Agreement was adopted in February 2003. There have been many years of historical precedent regarding urban service boundaries and the respective responsibilities of the two cities, the County, and various service agencies. OTHER ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED ■ Not sign the urban service agreement ■ Delay signing the Agreement until, like Tualatin, an addendum is prepared stating Tigard has no other obligations or responsibilities regarding any other portions of the Agreement besides those in which it is mentioned.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends approval of the attached resolution selecting the Stevens Marine property for the location of the Downtown Public Plaza. Staff also recommends endorsement of the concept plan for the Downtown core area surrounding Scheme 1 (Stevens Marine site). KEY FACTS AND INFORMATION SUMMARY Background: On April 17, 2007, the City contracted with Walker Macy, landscape architects, to develop a master plan for the Fanno Creek Park. The scope of work includes a Plaza Location Study and both Park and Plaza design. The decision to locate a public plaza in Downtown is a key community decision and a deliberate process was set up to allow for discussion over a 2-month timeframe. At the July 24 Council meeting, consultants Walker Macy with assistance from Chris Zahas of Leland Associates, presented the four (4) Plaza options currently under consideration. At the meeting, it was suggested that Council consider the options, provide feedback, but not make a final decision until more discussions with the public, Downtown business and property owners, the Fanno Park & Plaza Steering Committee, and the City Center Advisory Commission(CCAC) had taken place. The discussion about the location of the public plaza has included the Fanno Creek Park & Plaza Steering Committee as the lead group, the CCAC (whose focus is Downtown Urban Renewal projects), Downtown property owners and businesses (the group perhaps most directly affected by the decision), the public at-large, and the City Council. Nine (9) public meetings, including an open house, have been held in which the public and Downtown property and business owners were invited to attend. The open house on July 28" had forty (40) people in attendance with active discussion for the full two hours. Conclusions: In general, the plaza site options vary by their ability to be "activated" (used by people), to catalyze redevelopment opportunities, and their connection to the Fanno Creek Park. The strategy for redevelopment in'the core area of Downtown includes the construction of a plaza and an adjacent redevelopment project at the same time. Therefore, in evaluating the location of the Downtown Plaza, careful consideration should be given to the redevelopment potential of adjacent properties. Because the City Center Development Agency (CCDA) operates in a "willing seller" environment without the powers of condemnation, the willingness of adjoining property owners to cooperate with the City for redevelopment is critical. All of the options for the plaza are feasible, and could accommodate anticipated uses for a public plaza in Downtown. However, the Stevens Marine property (Scheme 1) is the most viable option among those under consideration. At its August 8th meeting, the Fanno Creek Steering Committee passed a motion (7 for, 1 absent, 1 abstention) recommending the Stevens Marine site as the location for the Downtown Plaza. The Stevens Marine site provides the following advantages that differentiate it from the other sites: 1) its location supports the recommendation of the Tigard Downtown Improvement Plan by having a direct connection to Fanno Creek Park; 2) it will provide views of the park, has the potential to be more fully integrated into the Park, and could conveniently accommodate a nearby Farmers market by temporary closure of side streets; 3) it is located directly adjacent to the Dolan property, which at minimum, is large enough to support a redevelopment project in association with the plaza. The Dolan property has high redevelopment potential with a low improvement to land value and there would be no disruption to an existing business. Dan Dolan, owner of the property, has openly expressed a willingness to work with the City for a redevelopment project; 4) it allows for a potentially larger adjacent redevelopment site if the Dolan property were combined with the Woodard property (Liquor Store property). Larger redevelopment sites are more developable and would be perceived as an asset to a potential developer; 5) it would require less initial property acquisition for park, plaza, and a redevelopment property. It would include the use of a minimum two (2) properties acquisitions, the Stevens Marine property and the Dolan property. Other options would necessitate the use of three (3) properties, except the Carwash site; 6) visibility, considered an important factor for use, could be established by creating a wide, pedestrian- oriented, sidewalk space along Burnham St. to Main St., linking the plaza with either a smaller public plaza as part of a redevelopment site on Main St. or by extending redevelopment to Main Street along Burnham Street. The CCAC has been shown the location options and will consider recommendations at its August 22nd meeting. Pending the outcome of the meeting, their recommendations will be presented at the August 28th Council meeting. OTHER ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED All four (4) plaza location options under consideration are feasible and have been evaluated. CITY COUNCIL GOALS A key Council goal for 2007 is to promote community fabric in the Downtown by developing a Public Square. Location of the Downtown Plaza furthers this Council goal and continues the effort to implement the Downtown Plan.

At minimum, the assumptions include: acquisition of the Stevens Marine property and the Dolan property fronting Burnham Street. There is a funding strategy and 5-year capital improvement plan in place to execute urban renewal projects in the Downtown. However, each project will have to be separately evaluated to determine the best mechanism of funding. \Vig20dnotpub\tig20\w rootVo"s\torm docs\ccda agenda item summery sheet 07.doc CITY OF TIGARD, OREGON Sh~,~,I TIGARD CITY COUNCIL RESOLUTION NO. 07- cc - A RESOLUTION SELE CTING THE LOCATION FOR THE DOWNTOWN UBLIC PLAZA WHEREAS, the City of Tigard has approved the Tigard Downtown Improvement Plan and City Center Urban Renewal Plan, which identify Fanno Creek Park between Hall Blvd. and Main Street, and a public plaza as key catalyst projects f r Downtown; and WHEREAS, the use of Tax Increment Finan ing was approved by voters in May 2006, providing a long-term financing plan for projects within the 'ty Center Urban Renewal District; and WHEREAS, the City has conducted a Plaza Locati n Study to identify and evaluate options for the location of a Pubic Plaza in Downtown; WHEREAS, the Stevens Marine property as location fpr the Public Plaza meets the intent of the Tigard Downtown Improvement Plan, can be designed to meet the long-term needs of the community, and provides the potential for redevelopment of adjoinging property.

Meetings and open houses have been held in which the public and Downtown property and business owners were invited to attend. In addition, the City has been conducting monthly Downtown updates at the Chamber of Commerce every 3rd Tuesday of the month. The plaza location options were presented twice at this Chamber forum to encourage Downtown businesses and property owners to express their concerns. For the first Open House on July 28th, approximately 700 letters were sent out to the public (300 to Downtown business / property owners, 200 interested parties, 200 randomly selected home owners in Tigard). Another 200 emails were sent to the Downtown interested party list for the Open House. Additional meetings are listed below: • July 11 - Fanno Creek Park & Plaza Steering Committee, Library Community Room • July 11 - Kiwanis Club, Cafe Allegro • July 17th - Chamber of Commerce Noon Hour, Downtown Update • July 18th - City Center Advisory Commission (CCAC) Meeting, Town Hall • July 24th - City Council Meeting Presentation, Tigard City Hall Page 1 of 3 Attachment 2 • August 8th - Fanno Creek Park & Plaza Steering Committee, Library Community Room • August 21st - Chamber of Commerce Noon Hour, Downtown Update • August 22nd - City Center Advisory Commission (CCAC), Library Community Room • August 28th - Council Meeting, Tigard Town Hall The Plaza Location Study is intended to help the community decide where the plaza should be located. Initially, criteria were determined by the consultant team with staff input to identify several potential locations for the Downtown Plaza. The criteria were based on the Tigard Downtown Improvement Plan, the ability to create a highly active space used on a regular basis, and the capacity to catalyze redevelopment. The criteria for selection of the plaza are: connection to the park, potential for adjacent property redevelopment, redevelopment with 5-10 year time frame, visibility, and community edges (adjacent streets). After initial screening, four (4) sites remained on the list of potential plaza sites: ■ Stevens Marine, Inc. site (east of Dolan property on Burnham St.) ■ Liquor Store site (SE corner of Main St. / Burnham St.) ■ Dolan Property on Burnham St. (directly east of the Liquor Store site) ■ Car Wash site (intersection of Main St. / Burnham St.) Conclusions: In general, the plaza site options vary by their ability to be "activated" (used by people), to catalyze redevelopment opportunities, and their connection to the Fanno Creek Park. ■ Scheme 1 (Steven Marine site) has the strongest direct connection to Fanno Creek Park, less visibility from Main Street, but strong redevelopment potential with adjoining property. ■ Scheme 2 (Liquor Store site) has been determined by consultants to have the highest potential to be activated and used on an everyday basis, and to stimulate redevelopment activities on Main St. itself. ■ Scheme 5 (Dolan site) is not as strong as the Liquor Store site in terms of its visibility and ability. to be activated for use. ■ Scheme 6 (Car Wash site) is highly visible, has the capacity to stimulate redevelopment, but has associated noises problems as a result of its proximity to 99W, and is the furthest from the Park. The strategy for redevelopment in the core area of Downtown includes the construction of a plaza and an adjacent redevelopment project at the same time. Therefore, in evaluating the location of the Downtown Plaza, careful consideration should be given to the redevelopment potential of adjacent properties. Because the City Center Development Agency (CCDA) operates in a "willing seller" environment without the powers of condemnation, the willingness of adjoining property owners to cooperate with the City for redevelopment is critical.

The Dolan property has high redevelopment potential with a low improvement to land value and there would be no disruption to an existing business.

The purpose of the meeting was to present the existing conditions of the site, site analysis, potential park and plaza program elements that could be considered for the project, and the plaza location study. Approximately 35 people attended the Public Meeting, including several members of the Steering Committee and the City Mayor. Information was presented at three stations in an informal open house format. The first station focused on existing conditions and site analysis, the second on programming elements and the third on the plaza location study.

Phil Nachbar Senior Planner/ Downtown Development, City of Tigard Lisa Olson Volunteer, Project Steering Committee Michael Freudenthal Project Steering Committee Dan Dolan Project Steering Committee Mike Swanda Project Steering Committee Following is a summary of the major comments, points of clarification or additional issues raised by the public participants during the group work session: • The biggest issue is providing parking for new proposed facilities/ plaza/ park. Need to solve the parking problem in Tigard. • Connect trail for regional access - when?? • The plaza needs to be on Main Street. • Put the plaza on Main Street. Don't stick it on Burnham out of the main circulation hoping that Burnham will redevelop to high enough level to pull people down it. Successful urban plazas need to be treated as an important land use, not placed in left over space. • Ensure that proposed use at Main Street - meeting of park and urban life - is highest attraction possible to maximize the street/ foot traffic that will "happen" along into the green spaces. Provide another entrance/ connection that is for intentional visitors. Arts Center is not an appropriate joining. Police should be kept remote since it is not a destination that brings traffic to other adjacent uses. Lawrence L. Walker • J. Douglas Macy • Michael W.

Get art galleries. Support activities of artists. "Rollerskating" for kids/ adults. I like the plaza being just off Main Street, perhaps best at the corner where liquor store is? Be sure a shuttle is available to and from train station and bus mall. • Please seriously consider parking for all the activities that the new attraction/ structures will bring to town. Traffic is already bad, especially around Main Street where people use it to stay away from Highway 99. • I prefer/ recommend Plaza location scheme 6 (car wash site) since its large and most important, away from Fanno Creek Park, in order to minimize disturbances to the Park, the wildlife that live there and the people who want a quiet experience in the Park. Many dollars (public) have already been spent in restoring Fanno Creek Park - NO more development in the Park. The Turtles! don't want more activity in their home! • Plaza should not be treated as a step-child. Put it on Main Street in prime location. A hybrid of scheme #2 (Steven's Marine site) with wide Park frontage onto Burnham is best solution. Do not build a road between Park and development. Unecessary and expensive. Do not bring cars into Park. Retail space on that back edge will not be highly desirable. Can bring street off Burnham between two sites with entrances into garage parking - similar to Lake Oswego Millenium Park with the turn-around and entry to garage. Put Farmer's Market in rail parking lot, not in this plaza. Park does not need a lot of parking if plaza on Main Street, just enough for stage. Let people sit on grass for events. • My first look at the proposals - very thought provoking. I appreciate the clear description of the choices, and plan to physically visit the area with a new eye to the possibilities to consider. • What about low income housing and Section 8? Leave Ash Avenue alone. Don't put it through the Park!! Have something like Portland's Pioneer Square for summertime -"Flicks on the Bricks"- movies shown. Someplace for the youth to go during summer. What about the old haggens? Rollerskating rink, etc. • I'm interested in using the plaza for: concerts, play fountain, farmer's market, outdoor plays. Please incorporate into design!! • The presentation helps everyone at the meeting to be involved. The cards are a non-threatening way for people to communicate their thoughts. Tigard is a great little City that has much potential for the community. A plaza would be great for music, market, alnd a place for people to visit - a community table. • Presentation visual excellent! Helps us understand better. Great presentation of pictures and graphs. Pictures are great for people in the community to learn more about what is going on and how they can become involved - citizens of the community need to share their ideas.

TIGARD, OR 97224.1 S39 August 28, 2007 City Council and Mayor of Tigard: Re: Fanno Creek Plaza. Site Selection As a member of the Fanno Creek Park and Public Plaza Steering Committee, and as a private citizen, I support placing the public plaza as shown on Scheme #1- Stevens Marine Property. My reasons are as follows: 1. Tigard citizens have already affirmed placing the "Heart of Downtown" adjacent to the creek twice: #1. Through the TDIP which states, "This concept calls for recognition and improvement of a central open space resource and gathering place adjacent to Fanno Creek, supporting a range of passive and active open space and public gathering uses. These could include such uses as: ➢ A home for the Tigard Farmer's Market ➢ A smaller, appropriately-scaled entertainment venue, perhaps a natural amphitheatre for public concerts and other events ➢ Picnics, weddings, and other gatherings The improvement of this area as a community amenity that acts as a gathering spot while respecting the natural environmental character and needs of the Fanno Creek area further advances the concept of a "green Downtown," respecting the valuable Fanno Creek resource. The Fanno Creek area has consistently been identified as a key amenity in the district, with considerable emphasis in the Plan dedicated to increasing linkages to Fanno Creek from the remainder of the study area. Creating an attractive public area adjacent to the natural environment surrounding the creek will work toward further capitalizing on this amenity, for both the district as well as the City of Tigard." Although the word "plaza" is not specifically stated in this particular section the concept as "plazas" for pubic gathering is marbled through out the full TDIP. #2. When passing Urban Renewal of which was based partly on the direction in the TDIP as being "community driven," I believe that the adoption of the TDIP was a key in getting Urban Renewal passed this time around. II. Leverages the surrounding properties: a. For redevelopment based on footprint b. Very attractive locations for redevelopment of the land: Main and Burnham Streets and next to the park and proposed plaza c. Current owners are already willing to work with the City of Tigard III. The least amount of land that needs to be required by the City of Tigard for public use. Lisa J. Olson, Page 2 IV. Long term vs. short term: The Burnham Street area surrounding the park has been identified by many sources as the first area that will be redeveloped. As the plaza will take several years, as will redevelopment, to design and develop, the plaza location will become a hub of activity for all of the new area. It is true that Main Street plaza location options provide more circulation and visibility now but to assume that the plaza adjacent to the park will not get the "eyes" that it needs is based on short-term thinking and what we see today and not what will be there years from now. V. The ability to connect to Commuter Rail and the parking it offers on the evenings and weekend when activity is likely to be the highest at the plaza. VI. Best utilizes the natural resource that we have in downtown Tigard and connects the public directly to it. Thank you for the opportunity to weigh in on this issue. Sincer y, 6Li' J. Ols ?(A.bl)c. T'es-~)mofJ Z~ (2 m U a~ 01 August 28, 2007 Mayor and Councilors of Tigard, Oregon Regarding; choosing a site for a city park and plaza for the DTIP Dear City Leaders, Please accept Site 1 for the proposed new location for our Downtown Gathering Area and as a potential future site for a Farmer's Market. As a member of the original Task Force that surveyed and accepted 3 years of public comments and criticisms it is my definite opinion that what the public wanted and voted for, in the beginning, is in accordance to the choice of Site 1 as depicted by the current Steering Committee that was tasked to find and procure a place for the Fanno Creek Park and Public Plaza. Even though there are considerable No's for this site before it becomes a positive Yes I believe this site can develop into an acceptable site for providing a place that Tigard can call Home. This would be a home that has a living room for all kinds of venues, from just a leisurely walk in the park to a place of gathering of friends for food, fun and festival. As a person who has an interest in Farmer's Markets I feel this would be a great place to start to develop a final home for a market place, one that would be shared by other like uses such as the arts, talents and entertainment productions. It is time today to choose before any more time goes on. Much needs to be done with design, finances and scheduling. Site 1 is the most simple and the least costly of all the options that has been sent to you by staff and their consultants and without a positive direction from you tonight my fear from the public will be that we as a group are unsure of our direction we want our downtown to move forward. Again, please accept Site I as the only alternative to design a future gathering place for our do own, Id lreg0 ende s n~ atherine Street n97223 Fanno Creek Park and Public U * Area~~~ City Cgunncil Meeting: August 28th, 2007 A L, 114 - S" jar r .E LC a .

Prepared By: G. Be iv eept Head Approval: City Mgr Approval: ISSUE BEFORE THE COUNCIL Shall City Council readopt Resolution No. 07-50 forming Sewer reimbursement District No. 44 (SW Cherry Drive) with revised exhibits and authorize an early connection to the line? STAFF RECOMMENDATION Readoption, by motion, of Resolution No. 07-50 with revised exhibits and authorization of an early connection. KEY FACTS AND INFORMATION SUMMARY • The proposed project would provide sewer service to 19 lots along SW Cherry Drive and SW 76`h Avenue. • At its July 24, 2007, meeting, City Council was requested to form a reimbursement district to serve 23 lots in this area. Following public testimony, City Council approved the Resolution forming the District but directed staff to remove four of the lots, 7510, 7530, 7550 and 7570 SW Cherry Drive, from the district and to revise the exhibits to the Resolution accordingly. These four lots will be served from a line behind the houses constructed through a separate reimbursement district. • Exhibits A and B have been revised as directed and are attached. • Each owner has been notified of the hearing by mail. The notice, mailing list and additional details are included in the Amended City Engineer's Report. • If Council approves this request to readopt the Resolution forming the Reimbursement District, bids from contractors will be requested to construct the sewer. • Another resolution to finalize the Reimbursement District, with cost adjustments, will be submitted for Council action after construction is completed and actual construction costs are determined. This approval is generally required before owners are permitted to pay fees and connect to the line. However, the septic system at 7650 SW Cherry Drive has failed and the owner has requested sewer service as soon as possible. To accommodate this request, City Council is requested to authorize this owner to pay fees and connect to the sewer in advance of final Council approval once construction is complete and final costs have been determined. OTHER ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED None COUNCIL GOALS The proposed Reimbursement District meets Goal No. 1, Updating the Comprehensive Plan, by providing areas with septic systems with sewer service as required by the Plan. ATTACHMENT LIST Attachment 1- Resolution 07-50 Revised Exhibit A, Amended City Engineer's Report Revised Exhibit B, Amended Map Attachment 2- Original Exhibits A, City Engineer's Report and B, Map (not adopted) Attachment 3- Table 1 Attachment 4- Vicinity Map Attachment 5- Notice to Owners Attachment 6- Mailing List FISCAL NOTES The estimated cost of the project is $463,364. This amount includes the estimated cost of construction plus an amount for administration and engineering as defined in TMC 13.09.040(1). Eliminating four lots from the original district will allow a portion of the sewer to be installed at a lesser depth. This is expected to result in a total project cost of about $39,000 lower than the previously estimated project cost of $502,563. However, because there are four less lots to spread the cost over, the cost to each of the remaining 19 lots will increase by about $4,000. The four lots removed from the district will be provided with service through a separate reimbursement district with an estimated total cost of $104,000. Estimated total project costs for the reimbursement district proposed on July 24, 2007 and as revised for current consideration are summarized on the attached Table 1.
