ANNEXATION (ZCA 2007-00003)
PROPOSAL: Annexation of one parcel just north of SW Bull Mountain Road containing a
total of 1.81 acres to the City of Tigard. The applicant has received land use approval from
Washington County to develop the parcel into an 11-lot subdivision (Highland Hills
Subdivision, case file #07-034-S); however, the available sewer, water and storm drainage
connections are within the City of Tigard, requiring the property to be annexed into the City to
receive services. Shady Peak Development, the sole owner of the subject parcel, has consented
to the annexation. The owners of five neighboring properties were invited to join the
annexation, but did not accept the invitation.
LOCATION: 13273 SW Bull Mountain Road (north of SW Bull Mountain Road, just west of
Raven Ridge subdivision); WCTM 2S109AB, Tax Lot 300.
CURRENT ZONE:R-6 District (Residential 6 Units Per Acre). The purpose of the
Washington County R-6 District is to implement the policies of the Comprehensive Plan for
areas designated for residential development at no more than six (6) units per acre and no less
than five (5) units per acre, except as specified by Section 300-2 or Section 303-6. The intent of
the R-6 District is to provide the opportunity for more flexibility in development than is
allowed in the R-5 District. The average lot area for single family detached dwellings within a
proposed development shall be no less than 4,500 square feet and the minimum lot area shall
be 4,000 square feet. The minimum lot area for single family attached units shall be 3,500
square feet.
EQUIVALENT CITY ZONE: R-7: Medium-Density Residential District. The City of Tigard
R-7 zoning district is designed to accommodate attached single-family homes, detached single-
family homes with or without accessory residential units, at a minimum lot size of 5,000 square
feet, and duplexes, at a minimum lot size of 10,000 square feet. Mobile home parks and
subdivisions are also permitted outright. Some civic and institutional uses are also permitted
conditionally. Note: In a subdivision, lot size may be averaged to allow lots less than the
minimum lot size allowed in the underlying zoning district as long as the average lot area for all
lots is not less than allowed by the underlying zoning district. No lot created under this
provision shall be less than 80% of the minimum lot size allowed in the underlying zoning
district.
APPLICABLE REVIEW CRITERIA: ORS Chapter 222, Metro Code Chapter 3.09,

several dates for potential meeting. Potential topics include: Urban Renewal; Downtown;
Transportation Funding; Urbanization; Intentions for 63 and 64; Water Feature in
Downtown; MTIP; and Clean Water Services. After discussion, Council members agreed
that staff should find out when Chair Brian can meet and then pare down the agenda items
to one or two topics.
Councilor Buehner reported she attended the Washington County Coordinating Committee
this afternoon. Council President Sherwood suggested that Councilor Buehner give a
report on the WCCC meeting during the business meeting.

Meeting Minutes - October 9, 2007 Page 1
Track 2
Community Development Director Coffee reviewed the delayed phase-in of property taxes
with regard to the proposed Highland Hills Subdivision annexation before the City Council
during the business meeting tonight. Community Development Department staff will be
working with City of Tigard Finance staff and the Washington County Assessor to give special
notice regarding the phase-in of taxes each time a new annexation is approved. City Manager
Prosser advised this is not specifically addressed in the proposed ordinance before the City
Council tonight.
In response to a question from Councilor Woodruff, Assistant Planner Eng advised she has not
heard of any controversy surrounding tonight's proposed annexation.
Councilor Wilson asked if the immediate neighbors had had any concerns. Community
Development Director Coffee advised that no one has called, questioned, or inquired.
City Manager Prosser noted he had received a call from Lisa Hamilton-Treick; she was
concerned about coyotes on Bull Mountain and requested an article be placed in Cityscape.
Councilor Woodruff noted she had contacted him; although, he has not returned the call yet.
Community Development Director Coffee reviewed the most recent annexation activity. Staff
has no reason to believe anyone is concerned about this annexation.
Council President Sherwood briefly previewed the presentation scheduled for the business
meeting by JOIN, homeless program in the City of Portland.
There was brief discussion of a "meth" program showing this evening on local television
channels. Council discussed the local situation, which has improved.
Track 3
City Manager Prosser noted staff has been receiving a number of individual requests from the
Tigard Water District Board members. Recently, Ken Fowler requested that all of the Water
District Funds be deposited to a bank account that the Water District has set up. This is part of
the termination of services, which the Water Board has not agreed to yet. City Attorney Ramis
will be sending a letter to the Water Board Attorney asking that all requests from the Water
District go through City Attorney Ramis with some evidence that it is a request from the Water
District Board; i.e., a resolution or Board motion. Another issue is that the Board had identified
their former attorney, Clark Balfour, as the point person for discussing this transfer of services.
Now that Mr. Balfour is no longer with the Water District Board, we need to determine the
point of contact to continue to discuss the transfer of support services. The Tigard Water
District's fund balance is approximately $100,000 and the City will need proper documentation
to release the funds. In addition the City of Tigard will not transfer services by piecemeal. City
Attorney Ramis added that part of the administrative support Tigard provides is the handling of
the District's funds.

Mobile home parks and subdivisions are also permitted outright. Some civic and

18.320 and 18.390.
a. City Attorney Ramis reviewed the rules of procedure for the public hearing.
A copy of the rules is on file in the City Recorder's office.
b. Council President Sherwood opened the public hearing.
C. Declarations or Challenges questions were posed by Council President
Sherwood:
- Have all members familiarized themselves with the application? All said
yes.
- Are there any challenges from the audience pertaining to the Council's
jurisdiction to hear this matter or is there a challenge on the participation
of any member of the Council? There were no challenges.
7:42:09 PM
d. Assistant Planner Eng presented the staff report. She reviewed:
• The location and the scope of the request for annexation.
• The review criteria.
• The notification procedures.
• The applicant plans to divide the subject property into 11 lots if the
annexation is approved.
• Staff finds the application meets the approval criteria and staff
recommends approval.
Councilor Wilson requested that Assistant Planner Eng explain the differences in
how Washington County and the City of Tigard calculate density. Assistant Planner
Eng advised that this annexation is the last annexation where the applicant went to
the County first for land use approval and then came to the City. With regard to
calculation of density, this property is zoned R-6 in the County (maximum of 6 units
per acre). The property is 1.81 acres; multiply this by 6 which equals 10.86. The
County allows you to round up, so this would mean you would get 11 lots. For the
Tigard City Council and Local Contract Review Board
Meeting Minutes - October 9, 2007 Page S
City of Tigard, when calculating how many lots you could create, you have to take
out the area dedicated to right-of-way. In some cases, therefore, you will get a lesser
number of lots than the estimated density. For this property the City zoning is R-7,
but you subtract the area for right of way and then divide the remaining area by the
minimum lot size of 5,000 square feet. If your total was 10.86 in the City, then you
would have to round down to 10 units per acre. Assistant Planner Eng said
calculations for this property were not done using City numbers since the property
owners did not apply for a subdivision through Tigard (they applied in Washington
County).
Assistant Planner Eng added that in the County R-6 zone, the average lot size must
be 4,500 square feet. In the City in the R-7 zone, the average lot size must be 5,000
square feet.
e. Public Testimony
- Proponents:
7:47:47 PM
Applicant - Ken Sandblast, 7160 SW Fir Loop, Suite 201, Tigard,
Oregon, advised he was with Planning Resources and he is working with
the applicant J. P. Development. He advised one of the owners of the
applicant's company is present tonight. He said he did not have anything
to add to the staff report. He said he primarily wanted to testify so he
could continue to receive the materials and answer any questions the City
Council might have. He said, "We obviously agree with the staff report
and as the staff just stated, this is kind of the last of its breed here. You
are now changing your Comp Plan to ensure that this happens like it
should." He asked for the support of the City Council to get the
annexation done.
7:49:17 PM
Bill Montgomery, 13379 SW Bull Mountain Road, Tigard, Oregon 97224,
requested to ask a clarification question. He referred to a map of the
area. He said he no problem with the application. He referred to a gate
that is accessed by a few people (Alpine Terrace). He said asked about
the status of the road and whether the applicants would have access to
that gate. Assistant Planner Eng said the gated access way is owned by
the Alpine View subdivision and it is an access easement for the people
who live there. The easement is a perpetual easement. The street within
the subdivision will connect to the existing Alpine View subdivision.
Hood Vista Lane will be extended into SW Alpine Crestway with access
to the west and through the other subdivision.
7:51:47 PM
Councilor Woodruff asked Assistant Planner Eng if the five contiguous
properties were interested in annexation. Assistant Planner Eng
Tigard City Council and Local Contract Review Board
Meeting Minutes - October 9, 2007 Page 6
confirmed that there was no interest. She explained that staff sends
letters out to properties that are contiguous to a proposed annexation
area and, in this case, letters were sent to every property within the island.
One person indicated verbal interest; however, there was no official
request to annex.
7:52:40 PM
f. Staff Recommendation: Assistant Planner Eng advised that staff
recommends approval of ZCA 2007-00003.
Councilor Wilson asked if any of the streets were private streets. Assistant
Planner Eng said no.
Councilor Buehner asked if half street improvements will be required on the
extension of Wilmington. Assistant Planner Eng advised she was not
familiar with the County's decision; from the site plan it looks as if there will
be a half street improvement. City Manager Prosser advised that some of
these questions might relate to the development application, which was done
under the County.
Councilor Buehner referred to Mr. Montgomery's questions about how
people will be getting in and out of this development. She said it is relevant
for the citizens to know what the street situation is. Mr. Sandblast advised
that the streets in the development are public streets (not private). The street
system will be extended. Hood Vista Lane is a public street that would come
through from the east side of the property connecting to Alpine Crest.
Wilmington will be extended. Improvements will be at a little more than a
half-street improvement; characterized as a three-quarter street improvement.
The development will not have access to the gate that is private as staff had
responded earlier.
In response to a question from Councilor Woodruff, Assistant Planner Eng
reviewed how the proposed annexation was processed; nothing is
extraordinary surrounding this annexation. Assistant Planner Eng confirmed
that only one property owner is involved.
7:56:25 PM
g. Council President Sherwood closed the public hearing.

5. SKATE PARK PROGRESS REPORT, 2007
Parks and Facilities Manager Plaza presented the staff report.
The Jim Griffith Memorial Skate Park will open on October 16, 2007. He reviewed the
construction progress, how the park was funded and future improvements planned for
the park.
A Grand Opening Ceremony is scheduled for November 8, 2007, at 4:30 p.m. He
reviewed the agenda for the Ceremony and noted that the donor wall will be unveiled at
that time. Activities for the Grand Opening will include a Ribbon Cutting, Skating
Demonstrations, and small gifts will be handed out. He thanked city staff member
Mike White who arranged for donation of stone for the donor wall from Legend
Homes/Matrix Development (valued at $2000).
Councilor Wilson noted that it has been fun to see the progress on the construction and
noted the park has a sculptural quality. He said he looks forward to seeing the kids
enjoy the park.
Council President Sherwood referred to the efforts to make this park a reality and at
times wondered if it would get done. Now, it is state of the art and a nice addition to
the downtown.
Councilor Wilson said recognition should be given to the late Mayor Griffith who
supported this idea from the beginning; Mayor Griffith's emphasis was to support the
youth in the community. He also acknowledged the work of Rich Carlson and the
young people who persevered to get a skate park in Tigard. Council President
Sherwood also acknowledged efforts from Pat Biggs and the large number of people
who donated money and materials. She suggested that an ad be placed in the
newspaper to thank everyone.
Councilor Woodruff congratulated Parks and Facilities Manager Plaza on the $150,000
grant the City received from the state to fund the park.
Parks and Facilities Manager Plaza reviewed some of the rules and regulations of the
park.

6. PRESENTATION BY JOIN - AN ORGANIZATION ACTIVELY INVOLVED
IN FINDING PERMANENT HOUSING FOR HOMELESS INDIVIDUALS
AND FAMILIES
Council President Sherwood invited Mark John of JOIN and Kim Krohn from the
Good Neighbor Center to come to the testimony desk to participate in the presentation
of this agenda item.
Council President Sherwood advised she asked that this item be placed on tonight's
agenda. She said she receives email from citizens concerned about the homeless on our
streets. She has also received letters from the Tualatin Riverkeepers and other people in
our community wanting to know what we are going to do about the homeless people.
The Good Neighbor Center staff will be part of the 10-year plan to end homelessness
in the County. Ms. Krohn and Council President Sherwood have done some work to
build a "singles shelter." Ms. Krohn met Mr. John from Multnomah County and the
JOIN organization. Mr. John has made several presentations on his program to
organizations in Washington County.
Mr. John is the Executive Director of JOIN, 3338 SE 17`'', Portland, Oregon 97202.
Mr. John noted his conversations with a variety of providers in Washington County
about one aspect of the work that JOIN does, which is street outreach. For the last 10
years JOIN has had a team of outreach workers who engage people who are living on
the streets; folks that are not connected into a shelter or transitional housing system.
They are often camped under highways, viaducts or sleeping in their cars. The outreach
workers in Portland are assigned geographically largely along police precinct lines. The
workers meet people in the street and offer a relationship of support with the goal to
help them find a way to get off the streets and permanently end their homelessness.
Highlights of the JOIN efforts include:
• Averaging about 360 people a year who are moved off the streets into permanent
housing.
• Outreach team stays connected to people who move into housing.
• A retention team works with people once they are in housing to help them stabilize
both in terms of building new relationships in the community, finding new ways to
engage that are not related to the street anymore; i.e., working or finding new
communities to become a part of (faith, political, art).
• Assist financially as much as possible.
• The retention rate with the 3000 people that have moved into housing in the last 10
years is about 75 percent.
• Three pieces to the model:
o Expect each person living on the street to drive the process of ending their
own homelessness. They have strengths and abilities that they bring to bear
Tigard City Council and Local Contract Review Board
Meeting Minutes - October 9, 2007 Page 9
on this process and they know better than anyone else what it will take to
succeed to get off the street.
o Like any person faced with a significant challenge in their lives, they will
need support. JOIN staff, above all, is providing this: friendship and
support through the long term.
o JOIN works hard to find innovative partnerships in the community;
looking for new folks, whether it is a church group, police department, a
landlord, to bring in and help JOIN help these people in their process of
getting off the street.
• JOIN does not use a lot of subsidized housing because it is not available and often
these people have criminal or eviction histories that makes it difficult for them to
get into subsidized housing. Historically, 90 percent of the people who are moved
into housing are going to private-market housing. Last year, JOIN had
relationships with about 140 private-market landlords who "took a chance on our
folks." This is not an act of charity; it is a business proposition. JOIN approaches
landlords who are assessing the risk as they do when they accept new tenants, using
background screening criteria to evaluate risk. "Our folks are often going to fail on
those criteria: their income isn't high enough, they have evictions, they have a
criminal history. But, unlike most tenants, they will come with a relationship with
JOIN. So, we go with the individual to the landlord and say, `If you are willing to
take a chance on this individual, we will be there to support the tenant for at least a
year. You, as a landlord, will have the cell phone number of the outreach worker
who brought this person in. We will be visiting; we will try to head off problems
before they arise. If there are problems, you can call us and we will respond."'
• A 75 percent retention rate for private landlords is good, especially at the lower end
of the rental market.
• From the beginning JOIN has been in partnership with the police; not as much at
the management level, but on the street. The outreach workers are meeting the
district officers, working together with them as much of possible. There are trust
issues in the homeless community with police officers because of the enforcement
role they must fill. The success has been where JOIN helps officers get someone
off the street into permanent housing. The police officers can let JOIN know when
and where there is an individual who might benefit from support.
• The JOIN model is cost effective. It costs about $19/day per person; competitive
with shelters. It is a lot less expensive than jail or emergency rooms. The national
data is telling us that it is more expensive to have someone stay outside
continuously over a long-period of time than it is to get them into housing and give
them the support services they need to stay there. Someone who is living outside
will get police contacts, they are much more likely to get arrested, and if they are
dealing with alcohol and drug issues, they will have a much harder time succeeding
in any program while they are outside. They are more likely to get sick and need
emergency healthcare. Those dollars add up.
• JOIN did a pilot project with Portland around their 10-year plan to end
homelessness where they received some money to take 25 people who were the
"hardest of the hard" to house. They had been on the outside an average of 10
years each. They moved them into housing. Just on police contact alone, they got
Tigard City Council and Local Contract Review Board
Meeting Minutes - October 9, 2007 Page 10
a measure of how many contacts they had per year prior to being housed - it was
down by over 90 percent.
• This program has been operating for the last 10 years. Washington County is a
different place; Mr. John said there seems to be an interest of outreach of this sort,
which is to work with the police and engage the private sector in creative ways to
supplement what the other agencies in this area are doing.
• JOIN's intention is to participate in Washington County's 10-year plan process to
see what the priorities of the community are and whether JOIN fits into those
priorities. If it does, they will be looking to build community support here to
sustain some outreach workers.
Council President Sherwood said it is an interesting program and it makes business
sense. She talked to Chair Tom Brian about this who indicated an interest. Ms. Krohn
does a lot of outreach in the County, mostly in Tigard, with the homeless people.
8:24:41 PM
Ms. Krohn said this is a political, budget, and human issue. Bringing the JOIN model
to Washington County would benefit. Our homeless population is growing daily.
People deserve to be in a warm, safe place. She urged that this conversation keep
going. She acknowledged that the City of Tigard supported the 10-year plan. She
noted with community education and awareness, we could start to make some huge
differences. People need to be off the streets, getting the help that they need, and
surrounded by supportive services.
8:26:18 PM
Councilor Wilson noted it is encouraging to hear about an effective program. This is
not just an urban issue anymore; the homeless issue has spread all over outside the core
of Portland. Citizens are starting to notice and be concerned. He said he has long felt
that the word "homeless" describes a symptom of the problem. People need to find
ways to help themselves. He said he looks forward to seeing what we can do to get
JOIN involved here.
8:27:23 PM
Ms. Krohn pointed out that JOIN housed 360 persons which translates to one per day.
In Washington County we now have 1.5 outreach workers and they housed 30 people -
this is a start.
8:27:51 PM
Councilor Buehner said she knows the government made a policy decision some years
ago to de-institutionalize a lot of people with serious mental problems. What kind of
success has JOIN had in terms of getting these people into programs where they can
get the assistance that they need with the underlying issues? Mr. John said it is a
struggle in terms of getting people access to mental healthcare and physical healthcare.
OHP has been cut back dramatically, which is something that many people relied on.
What JOIN has been forced to do is to focus their energies on getting people onto
long-term disability benefits. The estimates are that 60 percent of people who are on
the streets would qualify for these benefits, but only 10 percent are receiving it. This is
Tigard City Council and Local Contract Review Board
Meeting Minutes - October 9, 2007 Page 11
about $600 in cash benefits, but it also comes with Medicaid so they can go to care
providers to get care. This is an enormous struggle for JOIN. The process is
complicated and lengthy. The model that JOIN has of the long-term relational support
gives them the ability to accompany these people throughout that long process.
Historically, this has meant that JOIN is working with them for two years while they are
on the street as they go through the process. Once they receive a check, the landlord
relationships allows getting them into housing very quickly. Portland and Multnomah
County have made some medium-term vouchers available so JOIN can pay their rent
for 18 months. The stability that comes with moving someone inside, even if they are
struggling with serious mental and physical health issues, helps them to get through
that. JOIN has been able to move people through the disability application process
more quickly because they are inside, you can always find them, and they are more
focused because they are not dealing with, "where am I going to sleep or shower."
Through a partnership with United Way they have been able to tap into some expertise
through a benefits specialist to make sure the applications are as good as possible.
8:31:35 PM
Councilor Buehner asked about how people could be helped obtaining medication and
to remind them to take the medication. Mr. John said they do not have a lot of
capacity to do this kind of supervision; the kind of relationship that they form means
they generally know they should be taking medication. JOIN members are not mental
health professionals. He said that Luke-Dorf in Washington County has some outreach
with chronically mentally ill people.
8:33:18 PM
Council President Sherwood said Luke-Dorf is very excited about JOIN's assistance.
Luke-Dorf has only one outreach worker. Mr. John said there many great partnership
possibilities in Washington County with JOIN.
8:34:04 PM
Councilor Woodruff asked how the income problems are handled if they don't qualify
for federal funding. Mr. John said they try to support people in certain core areas.
JOIN has found that there are a lot people "out there" who either have benefits, but
can't get inside so they are spending them on alcohol or something else. Also there
people who are working but not making enough for a landlord to approve them. There
are barriers outside of income that JOIN can help people overcome. He suspects
when they start doing outreach in Washington County, we will find that a good
percentage of the people who are homeless are in a similar situation - it's not the
month-to-month resource that is the problem, but other barriers that are keeping them
outside. There are some, however, that will need subsidy (i.e., vouchers) for a time until
they can get disability income or employment.
8:37:13 PM
Mr. John said this isn't simple. He said an outreach worker he knows says the cause of
homelessness is a "poverty of relationships." The things that we typically point to for
people as being the cause of their homelessness, whether it's mental illness or
unemployment - those are things that lots of people in our community suffer. Those
Tigard City Council and Local Contract Review Board
Meeting Minutes - October 9, 2007 Page 12
are challenges that lots of people have but only a percentage of those people become
homeless. So, if you are looking for what is the difference between them, most often, it
is the absence of support relationships in their lives. They don't have family or friends
who can support them emotionally and financially in getting over these challenges.
JOIN endeavors to offer the relationships - fill that gap.
8:38:42 PM
Mr. Jolin said that in their experience, no one really chooses homelessness as a lifestyle;
it's not a good way to live and it's dangerous. People accommodate to it if they give up
hope; they come to terms with it and find a way to make sense of it for themselves.
But, virtually everyone, if you come to them with a real opportunity to get off the street
and into their own place is going to take it - it's just finding a way to deliver that
opportunity.
8:39:10 PM
Ms. Krohn said in Tigard that 40 percent of the homeless people are working but they
are not making enough or they don't have the resources to get through the barriers of
the background checks and the first and last month rental deposits, etc. She agrees that
homeless people do lack the relationships as Mr. John described.
8:40:36 PM
Council President Sherwood commented that there will always be someone that will
not want to go into housing. Ms. Krohn said she believes these people have given up
hope because the system has failed them so many times; perhaps, if they start to see
some success with their peers who are able to get into housing and sustain it, they might
eventually go into housing.
7. COUNCIL LIAISON REPORTS
8:41:51 PM
Councilor Buehner said she attended the Washington County Coordinating Committee
meeting earlier today because the Mayor was out of town. The agenda addressed a
number of issues that are ongoing:
• Possibility of putting another Major Streets Transportation Improvement Plan
(MSTIP) on the ballot next year.
• Discussion about raising the County Traffic Impact Fee for new development.
• A presentation on rural roads.
Of importance to the City is the issue for transportation funding. All of the cities were
asked at a prior meeting to poll their councils and come back with recommended
funding levels that might be appropriate for a future MSTIP and also for a potential
TIF increase. The cities recommendations were proposed and there was not complete
agreement; however, she thinks the County staff were aware of the amount of funding
that would be appropriate an MSTIP plan for next year.
Tigard City Council and Local Contract Review Board
Meeting Minutes - October 9, 2007 Page 13
There was much discussion at today's meeting on the Traffic Impact Fee regarding
what background information needs to be developed to propose a TIF bond measure.
State law and a recent decision concerning a business in Tigard has affected the
methodology in that it requires a lot more detail. Any money that is raised within TIF
must be dedicated to specific projects. Cities were asked to come up with a list.
In addition, there was discussion that the WCCC would like to see this measure go on
the May ballot. Therefore the ballot title must be ready by January. Cities have been
asked to get project lists back to the WCCC before the next meeting.
The preference for the May ballot comes from the likelihood that there will be an
enhanced patrol measure, expansion of the jail, and a Portland Community College
measure on the November ballot.
8:46:10 PM
Councilor Buehner said the recommendation from the WCCC advisory committee
regarding rural roads was for adding $900,000 per year to the MSTIP program for a cap
seal paving program. Of the roads in rural Washington County, 40 percent are gravel.
8. NON AGENDA ITEMS: None
8:47:07 PM
9. EXECUTIVE SESSION: Council President Sherwood announced that the Tigard
City Council will adjourn into Executive Session to discuss pending litigation with
legal counsel under ORS 192.660(2) (h).

4. QUASI-JUDICIAL PUBLIC HEARING - HIGHLAND HILLS SUBDIVISION
ANNEXATION (ZCA 2007-00003)
PROPOSAL: Annexation of one parcel just north of SW Bull Mountain Road containing a
total of 1.81 acres to the City of Tigard. The applicant has received land use approval from
Washington County to develop the parcel into an 11-lot subdivision (Highland Hills
Subdivision, case file #07-034-S); however, the available sewer, water and storm drainage
connections are within the City of Tigard, requiring the property to be annexed into the City to
receive services. Shady Peak Development, the sole owner of the subject parcel, has consented
to the annexation. The owners of five neighboring properties were invited to join the
annexation, but did not accept the invitation.
LOCATION: 13273 SW Bull Mountain Road (north of SW Bull Mountain Road, just west of
Raven Ridge subdivision); WCTM 2S109AB, Tax Lot 300.
CURRENT ZONE: R-6 District (Residential 6 Units Per Acre). The purpose of the
Washington County R-6 District is to implement the policies of the Comprehensive Plan for
areas designated for residential development at no more than six (6) units per acre and no less
than five (5) units per acre, except as specified by Section 300-2 or Section 303-6. The intent of
the R-6 District is to provide the opportunity for more flexibility in development than is
allowed in the R-5 District. The average lot area for single family detached dwellings within a
proposed development shall be no less than 4,500 square feet and the minimum lot area shall
be 4,000 square feet. The minimum lot area for single family attached units shall be 3,500
square feet.
EQUIVALENT CITY ZONE: R-7: Medium-Density Residential District. The City of Tigard
R-7 zoning district is designed to accommodate attached single-family homes, detached single-
family homes with or without accessory residential units, at a minimum lot size of 5,000 square
feet, and duplexes, at a minimum lot size of 10,000 square feet. Mobile home parks and
subdivisions are also permitted outright. Some civic and institutional uses are also permitted
conditionally. Note: In a subdivision, lot size may be averaged to allow lots less than the
minimum lot size allowed in the underlying zoning district as long as the average lot area for all
lots is not less than allowed by the underlying zoning district. No lot created under this
provision shall be less than 80% of the minimum lot size allowed in the underlying zoning
district.
APPLICABLE REVIEW CRITERIA: ORS Chapter 222, Metro Code Chapter 3.09,

4. QUASI-JUDICIAL PUBLIC HEARING - HIGHLAND HILLS SUBDIVISION
ANNEXATION (ZCA 2007-00003)
PROPOSAL: Annexation of one parcel just north of SW Bull Mountain Road containing a
total of 1.81 acres to the City of Tigard. The applicant has received land use approval from
Washington County to develop the parcel into an 11-lot subdivision (Highland Hills
Subdivision, case file #07-034-S); however, the available sewer, water and storm drainage
connections are within the City of Tigard, requiring the property to be annexed into the City to
receive services. Shady Peak Development, the sole owner of the subject parcel, has consented
to the annexation. The owners of five neighboring properties were invited to join the
annexation, but did not accept the invitation.
LOCATION: 13273 SW Bull Mountain Road (north of SW Bull Mountain Road, just west of
Raven Ridge subdivision); WCTM 2S109AB, Tax Lot 300.
CURRENT ZONE: R-6 District (Residential 6 Units Per Acre). The purpose of the
Washington County R-6 District is to implement the policies of the Comprehensive Plan for
areas designated for residential development at no more than six (6) units per acre and no less
than five °(5) knits per acre, except as specified by Section 300-2 or Section 303-6. The intent of
the R-6 District is to provide the opportunity for more flexibility in development than is
allowed in the R-5 District. The average lot area for single family detached dwellings within a
proposed development shall be no less than 4,500 square feet and the minimum lot area shall
be 4,000 square feet. The minimum lot area for single family attached units shall be 3,500
square feet.
EQUIVALENT CITY ZONE: R-7: Medium-Density Residential District. The City of Tigard
R-7 zoning district is designed to accommodate attached single-family homes, detached single-
fanAy homes with or without accessory residential units, at a minimum lot size of 5,000 square
feet, and duplexes, at a minimum lot size of 10,000 square feet. Mobile home parks and
subdivisions are also permitted outright. Some civic and institutional uses are also permitted
conditionally. Note: In a subdivision, lot size may be averaged to allow lots less than the
minimum lot size allowed in the underlying zoning district as long as the average lot area for all
lots is not less than allowed by the underlying zoning district. No lot created under this
provision shall be less than 80% of the minimum lot size allowed in the underlying zoning
district.
APPLICABLE REVIEW CRITERIA: ORS Chapter 222, Metro Code Chapter 3.09,

Prepared By: Duane Roberts Dept Head Approval: City Mgr Approval:
ISSUE BEFORE THE CITY CENTER DEVELOPMENT AGENCY
Should Council approve a resolution endorsing the submittal of a Senior Center Phase II Community Development
Block Grant (CDBG) project application?
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends Council authorize the submittal of the application.
KEY FACTS AND INFORMATION SUMMARY
The Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program is a federal program that annually provides more than
$2 million to Washington County to fiend activities that benefit low and moderate income persons. The County
distributes the money to local jurisdictions and nonprofit agencies based on project applications submitted by sponsors.
It currently is accepting project proposals for the 08/09 funding year. The application deadline is 10/12/07.
During several meetings last year, Council discussed Senior Center improvement needs. The original building was
constructed some 27 years ago. During that time, only minor improvements to the kitchen facilities, restrooms, wiring
(electrical, phone, and data), floor coverings, paint, and seismic conditions have been made. During the same period,
participation in Senior Center activities and services has increased at a steady rate each year. As a result of its age and
increasing use, the Senior Center building had become inadequate in terms of space and functionality.
The center's priority renovation and expansion needs were identified in a year-ago CDBG application. This application
was selected for finding, but was awarded a reduced amount ($307,000 vs $475,000 requested). Improvements funded
by this grant and local matching dollars are scheduled to be underway in early November and completed in January.
These funded improvements include:
• Remodel the kitchen area and install modern, commercial grade, and properly-vented equipment.
• Upgrade pantry area refrigerator and freezer.
• Separate the Meals on Wheels preparation area from the dining area.
• Replace the two side-by-side Meals on Wheels and delivery truck loading dock areas with reconfigured, one-
level, concrete platform.
• Upgrade the two upstairs restrooms and two downstairs restrooms with new fixtures and open-door style
entrances as needed to bring these facilities into compliance with current ADA standards.
• Upgrade upstairs lighting fixtures and electrical and phone wiring throughout the existing structure and
expanded facility.
1ALR131,N\Councd Materials\2007\10-9-07 AIS CDBG Proposal.doc
• Construct 620-square foot library and lecture room.
• Undertake seismic upgrades to the building.
• Widen the front sidewalk and extend it by 90-feet to the loading dock area.
• Replace upstairs floor coverings and paint portions of the building.
The present application is for the grant dollars needed to help finance the remaining improvements to the Senior
Center. These primarily include the addition of a 619-square foot "garden room" to the lower level of the two-story
Senior Center structure. The addition will provide much-needed activity and classroom space for the center's many
green thumb enthusiasts, as well as space for other types of classes. Also included in the Phase II work scope are
walkways and other site improvements associated with the garden room.
The Phase I and II improvements will serve the current and growing population of Tigard elderly.
City Finance Department review of the four projects for financial, budgetary, and purchasing requirements is in process.
Copies of the draft project proposal will be available in the City Recorder's office.
OTHER ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED
Do not submit the proposal.

ATTACHMENT LIST
Attachment 1: Resolution supporting applications for CDBG funds
FISCAL NOTES
The amount of the grant funds requested is shown below, along with proposed local share contributions. The
matching amount of $71,000 is identified in the adopted Community Investment Plan. The City dollars would come
from the General Fund.
The City's in-kind contribution includes grant administration and building inspection services. The City also may be
able to count as an in-kind contribution the staff time required for the relocation and operation of programs away
from the center during the remodel.
Project Grant Dollars City Cash City In-Kind
Senior Center II $115,000 $71,000 $ 3,900
Approval of the resolution does not financially obligate the City. Actual appropriation of funds and acceptance of a grant would require
separate budget committee action.

9. PROBLEM STATEMENT:
During the year-ago CDBG funding cycle, the City of Tigard applied for CDBG
funding to partially finance the renovation of the Tigard Senior Center. The CDBG
dollar amount requested was $475,000, or 48% or the project's total $1,007,000
cost. During the project selection process, the Tigard project was picked for
funding at the $300,000 level. This reduced amount combined with City and
Loaves and Fishes matching dollars enabled the City to renovate the upper of the
center's two levels, plus the downstairs restrooms. These improvements are
scheduled for completion by January 15, 2007. In detail, the phase I project work
scope includes the following improvements:
❑ Remodel the kitchen area and install modern, commercial grade, and
properly-vented equipment.
3
PubFac 2008-09 Project Proposal Form
❑ Upgrade pantry area refrigerator and freezer.
❑ Separate the Meals on Wheels preparation area from the dining area.
❑ Replace the two side-by-side Meals on Wheels and delivery truck loading
dock areas with reconfigured, one-level, concrete platform.
❑ Upgrade the two upstairs restrooms and two downstairs restrooms with new
fixtures and open-door style entrances as needed to bring these facilities into
compliance with current ADA standards.
❑ Upgrade upstairs lighting fixtures and electrical and phone wiring
throughout the existing structure and expanded facility.
❑ Construct 619-square foot library and lecture room.
❑ Undertake seismic upgrades to the building.
❑ Widen the front sidewalk and extend it by 90-feet to the loading dock area.
❑ Replace upstairs floor coverings and paint portions of the building.
The present funding request of $150,000 is $25,000 less than the balance of the
City's year-ago request. Combined with City dollars, the grant dollars will be used
to help finance the previously-identified lower level improvements the City was
unable to include in the phase I project. They include the addition of a garden
room and associated site improvements.
The senior center includes a well-used outdoor, waist high garden area, but the
center's many senior garden enthusiasts lack an in-door, year-round area in which
to engage in activities and conduct classes. This problem particularly applies to
seniors for whom outdoor and indoor gardening opportunities have diminished as
a result of their move from single family to multi-family or group home residences.
As pointed out in the phase I project proposal, the Tigard Senior Center was
constructed some twenty-seven years ago. During that time it has served as the
focal point of nutritional and social services to the elderly living in the Tigard-King
City and surrounding unincorporated areas. In FY 2005 the center served some
34,500 noon meals, including Meals-on-Wheels delivered to the homebound. The
FY 2007 goal was 38,700 meals. Center-provided social services include
information and referral activities, legal assistance, a foot clinic, tax return
preparation assistance, transportation assistance, and numerous classes and
activities. As illustrated by noon meal figures, participation in the center's activities
and services have increased at a steady rate each year.
In summary, the problem arising from the center's age and increased usage is that
it has become inadequate in terms of space and functionality. The phase
improvements address many of the the center's facility needs. The present project
will complete the remaining upgrades required to modernized and expand the
Tigard Senior Center and adequately serve the growing elderly population of the
Tigard-King City and srrounding areas.
10. PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
A. Describe how the proposed facility and activities/services address the need or
alleviate the problem identified in the problem statement. Explain how the
target population will access the facility.

In March 2005, a Senior Center Site Committee held a community visioning
retreat. Based on the results of this exercise, the committee worked with an
architect to develop a conceptual plan to meet the various facility problems
identified during the retreat and described in the problem statement.
The phase I project addressed the majority of these facility needs. However,
funding shortfalls prevented the City and its partner in this project, Loaves
and Fishes Centers, from meeting all the problems. The phase II project will
enable the City to finish the job of renovating and expanding the center to
meet the community need for a fully functional senior center.
The major phase II improvement is the addition of a 619-square foot "garden
room" on the back or north-facing side of the building. This will provide
much-needed activity and classroom space for the center's many green
thumb enthusiasts, as well as space for other types of classes. Other
improvements include new walkways and other site improvements.
Combined with phase I improvements, the phase II work will provide
important services to the area's fast-growing population of elderly and permit
the expanded use of the Tigard Senior Center.
Tigard and King City seniors will access the renovated and expanded senior
center by the same means they do now, by private autobile and public shutle
service. The improvements will be handicapped accessible to the maximum
extent feasible.
B. What types of activities/services will take place in the completed facility?
The following is a partial list of current activities:
* Weekday hot, nutritious group meals, with a socialization program at noon
* Weekday hot, nutritious noon meals delivered to the homebound
* Weekday information and referral services, and transportation
scheduling and assistance
Weekly classes, craft activities, lectures, entertainment, games, and music
* Monthly foot care clinics
* Annual tax preparation assistance (provided by trained AARP volunteers)
* Internet computer services and assistance
* Elder law legal assistance (provided by volunteer attorneys)
* Senior volunteer opportunities in these and other program areas
To these will be added activities and classes related to gardening. The
garden room addition also will provide space for other classes as well.
C. How will CDBG funds be used? Describe tasks and provide time frame for
completion of project.
CDBG funds will be used to complete the improvements and upgrades
5
PubFac 2008-09 Project Proposal Form
described above, according to the following schedule. Architect prepares
detailed construction plans and bid specifications; advertise for construction
bids; award construction contract; complete construction. Final design
incorporating sustainable principals will be started as soon as CDBG funding
is awarded. The time frame for the completion of the project from award of
grant to completion of improvements is twelve or fewer months. During
construction, nutrition programs scheduled at the facility will will not be
affected.
D. Will activities/services for different target populations be integrated and
coordinated within the facility? Examples are a community-senior center for a
senior center with a daycare program. Explain.
The target population is Tigard-King City elderly residents. Other community
activities that take place at the center include Community Service programs
through Washington County Corrections and Juvenile Division and high
school Community Experience Program activities. In partnership with
Portland Community College, some 30 teachers and tutors teach English as a
second language classes and tutor some 100 adults at the center. The
building is available on a fee basis for community use, such as for weddings
and receptions and cultural activities, during non-operating hours.
11. COORDINATION/COMPATIBILITY
A. Identify other facilities (public, private, or nonprofit) that address the same
need and provide similar activities/services in the area.
The Tigard Senior Center is the only senior center serving the Tigard/King
City area. St. Anthony's Church distributes monthly food boxes to needy
parish families. St. Anthony's and other area churches provide limited
recreation and social activities to a portion of the target population. The
Tigard Senior Center is the only facility serving the elderly group on an 8-5
basis and the only facility providing hot noon meals.
B. Has this proposal been coordinated with other related service providers, both
public and private? Please list.
The proposed improvements have been coordinated with, and are supported
by, the Loaves and Fishes Centers, Inc.

PubFac 2008-09 Project Proposal Form
A. What is the priority of this project in comparison with all other projects you are
submitting in this category and in the category of Infrastructure
Improvements?
The subject project is the City of Tigard's top priority.
B. Have you previously received CDBG funds in this category for a facility in this
geographic area or for this special population?
E Yes ❑ No
If yes, explain why additional CDBG support is needed at this time.
CDBG funds were received in 1979 to construct the center, in 1988 to
improve and add an elevator between floors, and in 1996 to pave a gravel
parking lot and add a raised bed garden area. Lastly, in 2007 the City
received program funds to renovate and expand the center. Increased use
and obsolescence led to the need for basic upgrades and improvements. The
City was awarded a reduced amount in 2007, some $170,000 less than
requested. The present application is for the grant dollars needed to help
finance the remaining improvements to the Senior Center.

Projects #6111 and #7132 were both sidewalk improvements. Project #6111
received two time extensions related to the City's need for a small road
easement from the Burlington Northern RR Company. The increased costs
associated with a proposed relignment of the street and unsuccessful efforts
to a obtain a portion of right-of-way needed to carry out the project let the City
to withdraw from this project in September 2007. Project #7132 also received
a time extension. The need for this extension was tied to the poor results
from a construction bid opening. The project was re-bid in the winter with the
expectation of better bid results. Project completion and close occurred in
2006. Project 26 is underway and set for completion and close out in early
2008.

COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY
City Of Tigard, Oregon
Issue/Agenda Title ZCA2007-00003 Highland Hills Subdivision Annexation
Prepared By. Emily E ng Dept Head Approvah City Mgr Approval
ISSUE BEFORE THE COUNCIL
Shall City Council approve annexation of one parcel containing 1.81 acres of land (Zone Change Annexation -
ZCA2007-00003) north of SW Bull Mountain Road, just west of Raven Ridge subdivision?
The proposed territory is within a pocket of unincorporated territory, contiguous to Tigard's City limits and can be
served by urban services.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends adopting the proposed ordinance annexing the subject territory to the City of Tigard.
KEY FACTS AND INFORMATION SUMMARY
The 1.81-acre subject property is north of SW Bull Mountain Road with access to it through a private shared driveway.
The subject property abuts the northern boundary of Alpine View subdivision, east of SW 133rd Avenue. The
property slopes down about 9% to 10% from west to east. There are no Significant Habitat Areas on the subject
property per the City's adopted map. The existing house was built in 1963. An accessory structure also exists on the
site.
Shadypeak Development, LLC, purchased the property on April 25, 2006. Tom Secolo and Nate Schwalbach,
representatives of the company, initiated the annexation request. There are no registered voters on the property. The
City invited the owners of the five neighboring properties to join the annexation, but did not receive a response.
The applicant requests approval of annexation of one parcel (1.81 acres) to the City of Tigard. Staff found all right-of-
way associated with the subject property to already be within City limits. The private accessway adjacent to the subject
property is already in the City. Therefore, no right-of-way is included in the total acreage.
The owner received land use approval from Washington County on May 18, 2007 for an 11-lot subdivision (Highland
Hlls Subdivision, case file # 07-034-S). However, the available sewer, water and storm drainage connections are within
the City of Tigard, requiring the property to be annexed into the City to receive services.
Key findings:
1. The proposed territory is within a pocket of unincorporated territory and contiguous to Tigard's City limits;
2. Urban services are available to serve the proposed territory,
3. The owner of the proposed territory has consented to the annexation;
4. The proposed territory is within Tigard's Urban Growth Boundary and Metro's Urban Growth Boundary, and
5. The proposed territory is within Tigard's Urban Service Area and Area of Interest.
OTHER ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED
Adopting findings to deny the annexation.
CITY COUNCIL GOALS
Growth and Growth Management, Goal # 2: Urban services will be provided to all citizens within Tigard's urban
growth boundary.

Statement by City Attorney - Quasi-Judicial Land Use Hearing Procedures
A copy of the rules of procedure for today's hearing is available at the entrance. The staff report
on this hearing has been available for viewing and downloading on the City's website and a
paper copy of the staff report has been available in the Tigard Public Library for the last seven
days.
The Council's role in this hearing is to make a land use decision under existing laws. The
Council cannot change the law for the land use application now under consideration.
Any person may offer testimony. Please wait until you are asked to speak by the Mayor and try
to limit your remarks to the application standards for the application. .
Members of the City Council will be asked whether they have any conflicts of interest. If a
Council member has an actual conflict, the Council member will not participate.
Council members must declare any contacts about this case with a member of the public.
Council members must also declare if they have independent knowledge of relevant facts, such
as from a visit to the site in question. A Council member who describes ex parte contacts or
independent information may still participate in the decision.
After the discussion of conflicts and ex parte contacts, any person may challenge the
participation of a Council member or rebut any statements made. The Council member in
question may respond to such a challenge.
Tonight, City staff will summarize the written staff report. Then the parties requesting
annexation and those in favor of the proposal testify. Next witnesses who oppose the application
or who have questions or concerns testify. If there is opposition or if there are questions, the
proponents can respond to them. The Council members also may ask the staff and the witnesses
questions throughout the hearing until the record closes. After all testimony is taken, including
any rebuttal, the proponents can make a closing statement. After the record is closed, the City
Council will deliberate about what to do with the application. During deliberations, the City
Council may re-open the public portion of the hearing if necessary to receive additional evidence
before making a decision.
You may testify orally or in writing before the close of the public record to preserve your right to
appeal the Council's decision to the Land Use Board of Appeals. You should to raise an issue
clearly enough so that Council understands and can address the issue precludes an appeal on that
issue. Please do not repeat testimony offered by yourself or earlier witnesses. If you agree with
the statement of an earlier witness, please just state that and add any additional points of your
own.
Please refrain from disruptive demonstrations. Comments from the audience will not be part of
./I

such as a copy of your testimony, photographs, petitions, or other documents or physical
evidence, at the close of your comments you must hand all new exhibits to the City Recorder
who will mark these exhibits as part of the record. The City staff will keep exhibits until appeal
opportunities expire, and then you can ask them to return your exhibits.

Agenda Item # 6
Meeting Date October 9, 2007
COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY
City Of Tigard, Oregon
Issue/Agenda Tide Presentation and Discussion by JOIN-An Organization Actively Involved in Finding
Permanent Housing for Homeless Individuals and Families
Prepared By: Chief Bill Dickinson Dept Head Approval: t!i "-V City Mgr Approval:
ISSUE BEFORE THE COUNCIL
Representatives of JOIN, an organization whose primary objective is to transition homeless individuals and families off
the street and into permanent housing, will be making a presentation to Council on their existing program in the City of
Portland and what program is being developed through the Housing and Supportive Services Network in conjunction
with the Department of Housing Services here in Washington County.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Receive presentation from JOIN and engage in discussion of what the goals are for a program developed in
Washington County.
KEY FACTS AND INFORMATION SUMMARY
JOIN envisions a community where homelessness is a short-term circumstance rather than a long-term or chronic
condition. In service to this vision, JOIN utilizes a "Housing First" approach that rapidly re-houses 175 homeless
households (families and individuals) in permanent housing annually. JOIN's effort is focused on people who are
physically sleeping on the street or camping in their car regardless of age, gender, ethnicity, diagnosis or other challenge.
In Portland, JOIN supports housing stabilization by providing critical supportive services to new tenants throughout
the first 12 months after placement and anticipates to achieve 12 month retention rates of 80% or better.
Through the Washington County Housing and Supportive Services Network, efforts are now underway to have JOIN
work with the Network membership in the effort to achieve the Washington County ten year plan of ending
homelessness. Details of this effort will be presented to the City Council during the presentation. The Network has
already been instrumental in streamlining the referral process for clients by providing a forum for 41 Washington
County agencies and nonprofit organizations to share information, refer clients to each other, and collaborate on federal
applications to bring resources to Washington County.
