Attachments Memo - Main Street Project Discussion and Direction Main Street Parking Agenda Item Summary Excerpt 2 -15 -11 Main Street Parking Minutes 2 -15 -11 Main Street Construction Survey Results ■ City of Tigard ,Z„ Memorandum To: The Honorable Mayor and City Councilors From: Engineering Manager Kim McMillan Re: Main Street Green Street Project Discussion and Direction Date: March 15, 2012 ISSUE Staff is seeking direction on whether to proceed with the Main Street project as designed or to place the project on hold in order to consider design changes and /or additions to the project scope. WHERE WE STARTED As originally envisioned the Main Street project is a green street retrofit creating a more pedestrian - friendly and environmentally- sustainable downtown where redevelopment is encouraged. Total project costs are just over $3 million. The city was awarded $2.5 million grant to construct wider sidewalks and other pedestrian and bicycle amenities, green street stormwater treatment facilities, new street lights, street trees and other landscaping features. The grant was awarded by Metro and is administered by the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT). A $650,000 City of Tigard match is budgeted in the current Capital Improvement Plan (CIP). WHERE WE'VE BEEN In 2010, before project design was underway, staff and the city's consultant presented the Main Street project to downtown business and property owners. Their greatest concerns about the project revolved around parking and construction. The city hired a parking consultant to work with staff and downtown business owners on the parking layout. The business owner group endorsed a parking layout consisting of angled and parallel parking. This layout is consistent with the Downtown Streetscape Design Plan adopted by council and received the support of the parking consultant, the City Center Advisory Committee, and, on February 15, 2011, the Tigard City Council. The council concluded its discussion on the parking layout as follows: Mayor Dirksen said, `7t wouldn't be Tigard Main Street without angled parking." Council President Buehner agreed. Councilor Woodard said he also liked angled parking but lamented the lack of space for more street furniture. Councilor Wilson said wide sidewalks are already sprinkled throughout downtown in areas such as Burnham Street. He suggested that if the time comes that there are too many pedestrians to fit on the sidewalks, we may have to reconsider, but for now this is appropriate. Staff perceived these statements as clear direction to proceed with the angled and parallel parking layout. An excerpt of the agenda item summary and complete minutes of the council's discussion are attached. WHERE WE ARE NOW • Project design is 90- percent complete. • In the future staff will provide council with regular updates on the Main Street project. • Council recently approved a resolution of necessity for right -of -way acquisition, as required by our intergovernmental agreement with ODOT. The city's right -of -way consultant is poised to begin work as soon as we have the go ahead from ODOT. • Staff conducted a survey of downtown business and property owners to obtain their input on construction. Survey results are attached. The survey was followed by an open house on March 1, 2012. This was a venue to discuss construction impacts and give owners a second opportunity to provide input on how to minimize those impacts. Staff will develop bid documents based upon this input. • Staff estimates the project will be out to bid in October 2012. Construction will follow shortly thereafter and should be completed within a year. RECENT ISSUES RAISED BY COUNCIL Pedestrian Clear Zone The project is constrained by the distance between buildings. The travel lanes have been reduced from 12 feet to 11 feet with parallel parking on one side of the street and angled parking on the other. The stormwater planters, part of the green features required to qualify for the grant, have been downsized. The sidewalks vary in width, with about half of the sidewalk being between 6- and 8 -feet wide, and the other half being greater than 8 feet in width. In areas where the sidewalks are less than 8 feet, the street trees have been moved into the curb bulb outs, if possible. This compromises the square footage of the water quality treatment area, but in discussions with our consultant and the representative from Metro this is an acceptable trade- off. Streetscape Design Street lights have been moved as close to the edge of the sidewalk as possible. There will also be some lateral movement of the lights to accommodate the relocation of street trees. Stormwater Outfalls & Bridge Rehab /Beautification There are 3 storm pipes that outfall to Fanno Creek near ABoy. Staff is in the process of confirming that only one pipe is active. Because the Main Street grant documents state we not impact on Fanno Creek, we cannot include work on these outfalls with this project. There have also been requests to rehab and beautify the bridge. The Main Street project scope did not include any bridge work. The city was advised by Metro that the project is too far along to add stormwater outfall and /or bridge work. Additionally, the stormwater work would need to be reviewed and possibly permitted through various agencies such as Clean Water Services, the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife, the Army Corps of Engineers, and the Department of Sensitive Lands. These reviews will likely take between 6 months and a year to complete. The stormwater outfall project is expected to cost $455,000, and the bridge rehab and beautification will cost approximately $1.4 million. These projects have been added to the proposed 2012 -2017 CIP. IMPLICATIONS OF PROJECT CHANGES HHPR, the firm hired to design and construct he project, estimates changes involving sidewalk widths would necessitate a major redesign. Sidewalks affect nearly every aspect of the project including parking, stormwater planters, and the location of street trees and lighting. HHPR puts the cost to redesign the project between $125,000 and $150,000. Staff estimates a redesign would delay the project by at least 5 months. Excerpt from 2 -15 -11 Workshop Meeting Main Street Parking Options Meeting Date: 02/15/2011 Agenda Item Summary Length (in minutes): 45 Minutes Agenda Title: Presentation on Main Street Parking Options for the Main Street/Green Street Retrofit Project Prepared For: Kim McMillan Item Type: Meeting Type: Council Workshop Mtg. Information ISSUE The Council is asked to listen to a presentation and provide input on parking options for the Main Street/Green Street Retrofit project. Staff is seeking Council direction to proceed with a parking layout and to develop a parking management strategy. STAFF RECOMMENDATION / ACTION REQUEST Staff recommends the Councilors participate in the presentation and direct staff to proceed with the preferred parking layout and to develop a parking management strategy. KEY FACTS AND INFORMATION SUMMARY • The Main Street /Green Street Retrofit project, funded by a combination of a Metropolitan Transportation Improvement Program grant and City resources, will rebuild Main Street to incorporate "green street" elements, like stormwater planters, LED street lights, and additional pedestrian amenities. • Two of the City's consultants, Rick Williams and Gary Alfson, will attend the presentation. Mr. Williams, of Rick Williams Consulting, specializes in parking management and operations. Mr. Alfson is with Harper Houf Peterson Righellis Inc. (HHPR), the firm that's been hired to design and construct the project. • Parking was identified early on as a major design issue because it will impact all other design elements. • Parking is critical to the vitality of every business along Main Street and is a major concern to business owners. Public Works and Community Development staff members met with a group of downtown business owners over the last several months to better understand parking issues from their perspective. Staff presented two parking alternatives to the business owners: 1. All parallel parking This option offers fewer parking spaces, with 12 -foot sidewalks. 2. Preferred Option - Angled and parallel parking This option is similar to the existing layout and offers more parking spaces, with 8 -foot sidewalks in most areas. There are, however, some areas that are currently wider than 8 feet, namely in front of some of the restaurants. HHPR was able to design green street planters for either alternative. There won't be a reduction in existing sidewalk widths under either option. • The business owners support option 2. They have clearly said that their customers find angled parking easier to use. • Our consultant's experience has shown that angled parking is desirable on downtown main streets. • The City Center Advisory Commission is also considering this issue and will be finalizing their recommendation on February 9. The Commissioners will present their recommendation at this workshop. • As a next step, a parking management strategy will need to be developed. This strategy will establish policies that result in the most efficient use of parking resources. In short, a parking management strategy will determine the "who, what, when, where and how" of downtown parking, with the ultimate goal being that sufficient parking is available for customers and employees. This strategy will be developed as the design is finalized and will be implemented in phases. OTHER ALTERNATIVES The Council could conclude that the proposed parking layouts are not in the community's best interest and could direct staff to continue to develop other parking options. Minutes from 2 -15 -11 Main Street Parking Options Discussion 3. PRESENTATION ON MAIN STREET PARKING OPTIONS FOR THE MAIN STREET /GREEN STREET RETROFIT PROJECT E l Engineer McMillan introduced parking consultant Rick Williams and Gary Alfson, Associate Principal at Harper Houf Peterson. She said Redevelopment Project Manager Farrelly also worked with her on this project. She noted that the CCAC voted to support the recommendation that will be presented tonight. Engineer McMillan said four meetings were held with Main Street business owners. Staff heard that they wanted more involvement, so a Parking Discussion Group was formed. She said a Main Street business representative from Tyler's Automotive was present and she thanked her for her attendance and participation. She said there has been between 10 -14 Main Street business owners at each meeting. Two of their main concerns are parking and construction. Parking options included 1) all parallel parking with improvements and 2) slightly adjusted angle parking. She said the Parking Discussion Group was not in favor of parallel parking. They agreed to sacrifice some spaces if somewhat modified angle parking was kept. She said the main difference between the two options is the sidewalk width. With angle parking, there won't be the 12 -foot sidewalks, however some existing businesses already have them, for example, in front of Max' Fanno Creek Brew Pub and Cafe Allegro. Redevelopment Project Manager Farrelly noted that the Green Street treatment adds three feet onto the existing sidewalks so we are not losing any pedestrian way. Council President Buehner mentioned that some employees of downtown businesses are parking in front, taking space away from potential customers. Engineer McMillan said Consultant Williams will work with business owners and the City to develop a parking management plan. Engineer McMillan said the City committed to allow the use of two lots on Burnham for parking during construction. Staff also talked with business owners above Burnham and Main about a public /private partnership for parking. She acknowledged Tyler's Automotive and the car wash owners for agreeing to ask their employees to park off - street. Engineer McMillan presented a PowerPoint on the Main Street Green Street project. A copy of this presentation is in the meeting packet. She called attention to the angled parking and pedestrian bulb -outs and raised crosswalks. Redevelopment Project Manager Farrelly said pedestrian safety was an important component, mentioned by all stakeholders and these crosswalk features support it. Council President Buehner asked if TriMet is involved in these plans. She was concerned with busses speeding on Main Street, especially as they near Commercial Street. TIGARD CITY COUNCIL MINUTES — FEBRUARY 15, 2011 City of Tigard I 13125 SW Hall Blvd., Tigard, OR 97223 I www.tigard or.gov I Page 7of13 En Consultant Williams spoke about how parking designs support the Main Street project. He presented a PowerPoint on the advantages of a well- designed parking plan. A copy of his presentation is in the meeting packet. He said he concurred with the suggestion of the CCAC and Parking Discussion Group. Council President Buehner suggested using Tigard Street as an area for additional parallel parking. Engineer McMillan said that hadn't been considered, but they could look at that. Councilor Wilson asked about back -end angle parking. Consultant Alfson said that makes it safer for pulling out but in Main Street's case the angle is too steep. He said the speed of through traffic will be slowed somewhat by the raised crosswalks and narrow lanes. Consultant Williams agreed that head -in parking is easier and he has found the back -in parking is best for cities that have inclines, such as Seattle. Council President Buchner asked about the turnaround at the south end of Main Street at Pacific Highway. Engineer McMillan said a discussion regarding a turnaround would need to occur at a later date due to uncertainties regarding right of way and other details. Councilor Wilson said this was a great idea and suggested putting in another at the other end of Main Street. E l Mayor Dirksen said, "It wouldn't be Tigard Main Street without angled parking." Council President Buchner agreed. Councilor Woodard said he also liked angled parking but lamented the lack of space for more street furniture. Councilor Wilson said wide sidewalks are already sprinkled throughout downtown in areas such as Burnham Street. He suggested that if the time comes that there are too many pedestrians to fit on the sidewalks, we may have to reconsider, but for now this is appropriate. 4. BRIEFING ON THE ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITIES ANALYSIS 11G1 Senior Planner Wyss introduced this item and gave an update on the project. He described the Economic Opportunities Analysis (EOA) as a technical exercise, which compares the projected demand for, and existing supply of, employment and industrial lands. Senior Planner Wyss said the EOA is included as a work task in the statewide periodic review. The City received grant funds from the Department of Land Conservation and Development (DLCD) for consultant help. The City hired Cogan Owens Cogan to assist with the task and work began last June. He discussed the project tasks which have been completed and reviewed by the Planning Commission. He said the Planning Commission acted as the Citizen Advisory Committee on this project. While they were interested in discussing economic development in a broader sense, such as business recruitment and business cluster development, the EOA as required by the periodic review has a very narrow focus and these topics had to be tabled. There will be recommendations in the EOA for follow -up discussions.

This shift from the prior practice of utilizing an independent Committee for Citizen Involvement (CCI) was prompted by several factors, which are described below. It does not signal a diminishment of the City's commitment to meaningful and robust citizen involvement in a broad range of issues and matters, including land use and land use decisions. For many years Tigard has maintained an independent CCI whose charge has included the state required oversight of citizen involvement in land use and land use decisions. However, their charge has also encompassed many other responsibilities and the specific charge(s) of the committee has transitioned several times over the many years of its existence. Recent budget cuts and the desire to direct limited staff and volunteer resources most effectively toward the full range of citizen involvement oversight needs required that changes be made to the delegation of these responsibilities. The Tigard Comprehensive Plan in Goal 1 says to, "Provide citizens, affected agencies, and other jurisdictions the opportunity to participate in all phases of the process." The City currently maintains ten citizen based volunteer committees with ongoing assignments to advise the City Council on matters pertaining to their area of responsibility. These range from the required Library Board and Budget Committee to the Planning Commission, Transportation Advisory Committee, and Parks and Recreation Board. To better implement the Comprehensive Plan policies 1.1.1 - 1.1.5 the City Council has directed in Resolution 10 -XX that all standing committees, boards, and commissions include in their charge citizen involvement appropriate to their main responsibilities and charge. This new assignment will be implemented by amending the bylaws for each committee, board, and commission. The Council also meets annually in open session with each group to review their work program and expects to include a review of their citizen involvement efforts as part of that discussion. Assigning the responsibilities for Oregon Land Conservation and Development Department November 9, 2010 Page 2 citizen involvement oversight for land use and land use decisions to the Planning Commission is clearly consistent with this overall approach. In Resolution 10 -XX the Council also directed that the charge of the existing Committee for Citizen Involvement become more narrowly focused on the City's Neighborhood Network program in order to better support and further develop that effort. The name of the committee will change to reflect this new focus and their charge will also include the responsibility for citizen involvement appropriate to their main responsibilities. The Tigard Planning Commission's members are selected by an open, well - publicized public process. The City's process for appointing board and committee members includes advertisement in the City's Newsletter and online, interviews by the Mayor's Appointment Advisory Committee, and written notification of appointment. While these changes are fairly significant, the City Council believes they will strengthen and broaden the City's efforts to provide meaningful and robust opportunities for citizen involvement on the full range of issues affecting Tigard. The Council is confident that the Planning Commission can assume the state required oversight of citizen involvement in land use and land use decisions and that the annual discussion of the Commission's work program provides a reasonable opportunity to consider the effectiveness of their efforts. Please do not hesitate to contact me at 503- 639 -4171 if there are any questions or concerns about these changes.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION / ACTION REQUEST Approve both the Assignment Agreement and the IGA for community planning for River Terrace and authorize the city manager to sign both documents. KEY FACTS AND INFORMATION SUMMARY In 2002 Metro brought approximately 500 acres of land known as Areas 63 and 64 within the Urban Growth Boundary (UGB). A third component of the West Bull Mountain Concept Plan known as the "Rural Element" was not brought inside the UGB in 2002. In November 2010 Washington County adopted the West Bull Mountain Concept Plan Resolution and Order that established land use strategies for how Area 63 and 64/River Terrace should become a future urban community. On September 30, 2011 the city annexed Area 64/River Terrace. The area annexed to the city is illustrated on the map attached to the IGA as Exhibit B. The city has also been formally approached by property owners in Area 63 and the Rural Element who are interested in annexing to Tigard. On October 20, 2011 Metro brought approximately 49 acres known as the Roy Rogers West Area, a portion of the Rural Element, within the UGB. The Tigard Urban Service Agreement (TUSA) adopted in 2003 designated Tigard as the appropriate provider of services in the Tigard urban service area except as set forth in the TUSA. As the ultimate provider of urban services to the River Terrace Area, the city and county agree that the city should be responsible for developing a community plan for the area. The city agrees to use the county's adopted concept plan as the starting point for the community planning effort. The attached IGA delegates community planning responsibility from the county to the city, commits the county to financial support of the community planning effort and support of the annexation of Area 63 and Roy Rogers West in to the city. The city agrees to begin annexation of unincorporated islands within its boundaries and assume ownership interest in roads within its jurisdictional boundaries. In the Assignment Agreement (Exhibit D to the IGA) the county assigns, and the city agrees to accept, responsibility for developing and adopting a community plan for River Terrace, Area 63, Roy Rogers West and the balance of the Rural Element. Further the county assigns, and the city accepts, the right to claim the remaining Metro CET grant money designated for this purpose. The sum is estimated at approximately $134,000. OTHER ALTERNATIVES The council could amend either the IGA or the Assignment Agreement or both. The council could vote not to approve the IGA including Exhibit D, the Assignment Agreement. COUNCIL GOALS, POLICIES, APPROVED MASTER PLANS N/A DATES OF PREVIOUS COUNCIL CONSIDERATION N/A ' Attachments ('A IGA Exhibit A IGA Exhibit B IGA Exhibit C Exhibit D Assignment Agreement with Exhibits IGA E xhibit E INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT Coordination in Urbanizing Areas and Transfer of County Road Ownership BETWEEN: City of Tigard, an Oregon Municipal Corporation ( "City ") AND: Washington County, a Political Subdivision of the State of Oregon ( "County ") DATED: , 2012 RECITALS A. In 2002, Metro brought the West Bull Mountain Area, consisting of approximately 500 acres of land, within the Urban Growth Boundary ( "UGB "). B. In 2003, City, County, Clean Water Services, and other providers of urban services, entered into an agreement called the Tigard Urban Service Agreement ( "TUSA ") that designated City as appropriate provider of services in the Tigard urban service area, except for those services that are to be provided by other agencies as further set forth in the TUSA. C. On November 23, 2010, County adopted the West Bull Mountain Concept Plan Resolution and Order that established general land use strategies for how the West Bull Mountain Area should become a future urban community. Two areas of the West Bull Mountain Concept Plan are known as Area 63 and Area 64 /River Terrace. Metro brought these areas inside the UGB in 2002. A third component of the West Bull Mountain Concept Plan is known as the "Rural Element," which was not brought inside the UGB in 2002. These premises are illustrated on the map attached to this IGA as Exhibit A. D. On September 30, 2011, the City annexed Area 64 /River Terrace. The area annexed to the City of Tigard is illustrated on the map attached to this IGA as Exhibit B. E. On October 20, 2011, Metro brought approximately 49 acres within the UGB, which will be referred to for the purposes of this Agreement as the Roy Rogers West Area. The Roy Rogers West Area is a portion of the Rural Element. F. The City has also been formally approached by property owners in Area 63 and Roy Rogers West who are interested in annexing to Tigard. G. Area 63, Area 64 /River Terrace, and Roy Rogers West are currently within the UGB. These premises are illustrated on the map attached to this IGA as Exhibit C, and shall be referred to collectively as the Community Planning Area. H. The City will refine the County's West Bull Mountain Concept Plan and provide a detailed land use, public infrastructure, governance, and financial planning framework for urban development of the concept planned area. The refinement shall be referred to as the Community Plan. Agreement page I I. City is the expected urban service provider to territory of the West Bull Mountain Area already within the UGB, Roy Rogers West, and the balance of the Rural Element that remains outside of the UGB. It is important to City and County that: 1) planning be completed to implement Metro's decision that River Terrace, Area 63, and Roy Rogers West, become functioning urban areas within the UGB; and 2) City and Council cooperate to support future annexation to the City of Area 63 and Roy Rogers West; 3) City and County further cooperate with Metro to bring the balance of the Rural Element inside the UGB; and 4) Roy Rogers West, Area 63, and River Terrace are included in the Community Plan for land use in the area. J. City and County find it mutually beneficial to continue finding agreement on rights and obligations in the Tigard Urban Service Area. K. City and County believe this IGA furthers effective governance, economy of scale, and furthers the policies of Metro Functional Plan Title 11, in that: 1) A single jurisdiction —the City of Tigard —will bear responsibility for creating a Community Plan for Area 63, River Terrace, and Roy Rogers West; and 2) One effort to produce a Community Plan governing the Community Planning Area may create more clear policy direction for the public; may prevent unnecessarily repetitive land use planning; and may promote quantity discounts for concurrently planning for streets and utility facilities in all three areas involved. L. City and County find that there needs to be a funding mechanism for construction of roadways and transportation in the Community Planning Area, and both parties find it to be mutually beneficial to work together to develop a financing strategy for the development of a multi -modal transportation system in the Community Planning Area. M. City and County agree that City ownership of roads within the City furthers effective maintenance, repair, and management of the City and County transportation systems, and provides increased efficiencies for provision of urban services within the City and County. N. City and County agree that City ownership of roads within the City provides long term clarity and certainty as to the respective obligations of the two governments for street maintenance and repair. AGREEMENT NOW, THEREFORE, the parties mutually agree as follows: Article 1: Land use planning and development 1. Delegation of planning and development authority. Agreement page 2 C 1.1 The County agrees to assign and City agrees to accept responsibility to prepare a Community Plan to encompass the Community Planning Area. Such assignment shall occur by execution of separate assignment agreement attached hereto as Exhibit D. Upon such assignment, Tigard will be obligated to prepare the Community Plan for River Terrace as a component of the Tigard Comprehensive Plan. 1.2 City intends to concurrently plan for the Community Planning Area irrespective of whether Area 63 and Roy Rogers West are annexed by the City and despite the balance of the Rural Element not being included within the UGB in 2011. 1.3. Administration of County land use plan and zoning code. County will administer the County land use plan and regulations, with the exception of applications for zone or comprehensive plan changes, in River Terrace and any other territory within the Community Planning Area that may be annexed to City, until the effective date of the ordinance passed by City Council adopting the Community Plan and supporting zoning code for the Community Planning Area. 1.4. Development authority. County agrees that, prior to the effective date of all ordinances passed by City Council to adopt the Community Plan and supporting zoning code for the Community Planning Area, it will refer to City any development applications, and will not approve any urban-level development in this territory. The City shall have sole authority to decide applications for zone or comprehensive plan changes as described in section 1.3 above. 2. Binding effect of Community Plan. The parties intend for the Community Plan to be submitted to Metro for that agency's review under Title 11. The County agrees to accept the Plan and not pursue inconsistent regulations once it is submitted to Metro for this purpose. 3. Financial support for creating the Community Plan. County agrees it will fund a share of the land use planning cost required to produce the Community Plan, in cash equivalent or staff resources and in -kind services such as special analysis and transportation modeling as required by the City in support of the project and mutually agreed upon by City and County. All County resources made available to the City under this Section will continue until the date City Council approves the Community Plan. 4. Continued support for MSTIP work. Through the MSTIP process, County will work with City to identify projects that the City can submit to the Washington County Coordinating Committee to implement the Community Plan and mitigate its impacts on the roadway system. Article 2: Annexation 5. Area 63 and Roy Rogers West annexation. County supports and consents to City annexation of Area 63 and Roy Rogers West as shown on Exhibit C including lands and rights -of -way under County control or ownership. 6. UGB amendments. County and City support future action by Metro to bring the entirety of the Rural Element within the UGB. 7. Timeframe for City consideration of annexations. City agrees to begin annexation of unincorporated islands within its boundaries. Agreement page 3 Article 3: Services 8. TUSA updates. County agrees to convene government representatives for the purpose of amending the TUSA to recognize City as the logical provider of urban services to Area 63, River Terrace, and the Rural Element. 9. Providers of urban services. The parties continue to acknowledge their agreement that agencies providing services to the Tigard urban services area consist of those agencies listed in Sections A through G of the TUSA. The parties further agree that County will not create any new special service areas or enhanced service districts within the boundaries of Tigard's urban service area. 10. Prior to urban development of the Community Planning Area, and as part of the plan development, the City will work with the County to develop a financing strategy that assures an adequate level of arterial and collector roads over a 30 year time frame. Development and implementation of this strategy may require the establishment of new or supplemental funding components. Article 4: Roadways 11. The City agrees to assume the entirety of the County's ownership interest in the portions of the following roads that are within Tigard's jurisdictional boundaries as soon as the parties adopt this Agreement, described as follows and attached hereto as Exhibit E. 11.1 The southeastern half of Barrows Road from Scholls Ferry to Springbrook (item D on map). 11.2 113th Avenue from Durham Road to the current city limits (item E on map). 11.3 Bull Mountain Road from Highway 99W to east of 14025 SW Bull Mountain Road (item C on map). 11.4 Friendly Lane from Roy Rogers Road east to its terminus (item A on map). 11.5 Roshak Road from Roy Rogers Road east to its terminus (item B on map). 12. The City's obligation to take ownership of the above listed roads is contingent on receipt of payment in cash from the County in an amount equal to or greater than the estimated total cost to the City to improve all portions of each of the above mentioned roads that are below Pavement Condition Index ( "PCI ") 67, to PCI 67. Article 5: Administration of this Agreement 13. Term. This agreement shall become effective upon full execution of the parties and remain in effect until it is retired or superseded. 14. Amendment. This Agreement may be changed by written agreement of the parties. Agreement page 4 15. Dispute resolution. Disputes over the administration or interpretation of this agreement shall be handled under the dispute resolution model provided in Article IX of the Tigard Urban Service Agreement.

This topic is raised by the possible departure of Mayor Dirksen for a position on Metro for which he is a candidate in the November election. I. Filling Mayoral Vacancy The language of Tigard's charter is notable for its flexibility. Unlike charters which mandate elections or set specific timelines for City Council action to fill vacancies, the Tigard charter gives the Tigard City Council wide latitude to appoint, call for an election or leave the position vacant. Mayor Dirksen's term runs through the end of 2014. If the Mayor were to resign in order to take another elective post beginning January 1, 2013, there would be at least two years remaining in the term. (The exact amount of time left in the term would depend on the effective date of the resignation). If such a resignation occurs, a vacancy will be created and the Council options are as follows: 1. Appoint to fill the unexpired term By majority vote the Council could appoint a person to fill the unexpired term and serve as Mayor until January 1, 2015. The appointment could be of a person who is free to run for election at the end of the unexpired term or the Council could ask a prospective appointee for assurance that the person would not run for the position at the next election. Compliance with the assurance cannot be made binding. 50014 -36799 439057 I.DOCIDRF /3/20/1011 JO RDAN RAM I S PC •TTOOM[T{ •T LAW Tigard City Council March 19, 2012 Page 2 2. Take no action The charter does not mandate the filling of a vacancy. It is possible for the Council President to serve as Mayor Pro Tem until the end of the unexpired term. Choosing not to fill the position would be very unusual in these circumstances. Leaving the position vacant might be appropriate in certain situations when the unexpired term is very short, but with two years remaining the decision not to appoint would be difficult to justify. 3. Schedule an election The Council could leave the position vacant until an election could be scheduled to fill the unexpired term. It is possible for the Mayor to submit a letter of resignation, naming a future effective date, thus allowing the Council to call for an early election on a date that would minimize the period of an unfilled vacancy. The Council could also choose to take more time to resolve the matter and set an election at any later date within the unexpired term. 4. Appoint/Schedule an election Under this option, the Council could appoint a person to serve as Mayor until an election could be held to fill the unexpired term. The appointed could be a person who intends to enter the election race or someone who has announced that they will not be a candidate. II. Resignation Issues While the charter does not address the details of a resignation, in the past, the City Council has developed key principles which the present City Council could choose to apply. The context for this discussion is the possibility that a current Council member may wish to become a candidate for Mayor, if an election to fill the vacancy is held. In order for current Council members to be candidates for the Mayoral position if a term filling election is called, they must resign from their current office at the time of filing for the Mayoral position. Such a resignation may not be withdrawn. The letter may provide for a future effective date. The resignation must provide for termination of the signer's service in the office not later than the day before service would begin for the office of Mayor. Damien Hall from the City Attorney's office will be available at the March 20, 2012 Council meeting to address questions related to these matters. 50014 -36799 439057 1.DOCIDRF /3/10/2011 I ' City of Tigard A . n Memorandum To: Honorable Mayor and City Council 7 /rr.rT ± _ .

In anticipation of this discussion, City Manager Wine asked me to prepare and share with the City Council some historical information on how council vacancies have been handled in the past. Attached is the following information: • Sections 7 and 8 of the Charter — vacancy process is highlighted in yellow. • Review of the situations causing a vacancy on the City Council in 2000, 2002, 2003, and 2007. The current Charter provisions were in effect when these situations occurred. Attachments I: \adm \cathy \election \election history\memo to council - history - council vacancies.doc • The current Charter provisions were in effect when the following situations occurred 2000 Situation — Mayor Jim Nicoll passed away June 30, 2000, creating a vacancy in the position of Mayor. His term expired December 31, 2002. Option the council chose: • Recruit for applicants to serve as Mayor to serve from September 12, 2000, to the March 2001, election. • Established an interview process and interviewed applicants for the mayoral position. Selected Jim Griffith who served as the appointed Mayor until March 2001. In March 2001, Jim Griffith successfully ran to finish the remainder of Jim Nicoli's term (December 31, 2002). Procedures guided by Charter: • Allowed to appoint until next available election date. 2002 Situation — Councilor Joyce Patton moved to City of Beaverton in August 2002. Her term was due to expire December 31, 2002. Option the council chose: • Council operated as a four - member council until the end of the year. • Councilor Sherwood was elected in November to begin the full term for this position in January 2003. Procedures guided by Charter: 1. No election can be held if there is less than one year of the unexpired term remaining. 2. Council may (not shall) appoint an individual to fill a vacancy. -2- Mayor /Council Vacancies (unexpired terms) Procedures Followed 2000 -2007 Mayor /Council vacancy procedures specified in The City of Tigard Charter, Sections 7 and 8: Section 7. Mayor and Council. The elective officers of the City shall be a Mayor and four councilors who together shall constitute the City Council. At the general election held in 1990, and every fourth year thereafter, a Mayor shall be elected for a term of four years. No councilor shall serve the City as councilor for more than eight consecutive years, nor shall the Mayor serve as Mayor for more than eight consecutive years. In no case shall any person serve on the City Council for more than twelve consecutive years. These limitations do not apply to the filling of an unexpired term. No person who is serving as Mayor or councilor shall become a candidate for any City office for a term which would be concurrent with the term in office then held unless that person first submits a written resignation from the then current office at the time of filing for the other office. A resignation submitted to satisfy this section shall not be withdrawn. A resignation shall be adequate for purposes of this section if it provides for the termination of the signer's service in the office not later than the last day before service would begin in the office for which that person seeks to become a candidate. In the event the office of Mayor or councilor becomes vacant before the normal expiration of its term a special election may be held at the next available date to fill the office for the unexpired term. Such an election shall only take place if the Council can schedule and hold a special election at least twelve months before the term would otherwise expire. If an election is held, it shall be held in accordance with the election laws of the state of Oregon and City ordinances not inconsistent with such election laws. The Council may appoint a person to fill a vacancy until an election can be held. (Res. 93 -63, May 17, 1994 election: Measure 34 -7, May 15, 1990 election: Measure 51, November 4, 1986 election: Measure 51, November 5, 1985 election: Measure 53, November 2, 1982 election: Measure 53, May 18, 1982 election). Section 8. Councilors. The councilors holding office at the time of adoption of this amendment shall hold their offices for the balance of the terms for which they were elected or appointed and until their successors are elected and qualified. At each general election after this amendment takes effect, two councilors shall be elected for four- year terms, with the two candidates receiving the highest number of votes being elected to office. In the event a vacancy exists on the City Council and a special election is called to fill the vacancy as described in Section 7 above, the candidate receiving the highest number of votes in the special election shall be deemed elected for the remainder of the vacant positions term. (Measure 34 -57, November 5, 1996 election, Res. 96 -54; Measure 53, November 2, 1982 election). -1- Y 2003 Situation: Mayor Jim Griffith passed away in November 2003. Option the council chose: • Council President Craig Dirksen was appointed as Mayor to serve from January 13, 2004 until December 31, 2004. (Resolution No. 04 -01) • Election was held on November 2, 2004, for the election of a Mayor to complete Mayor Griffith's term of office from January 2005 through December 2006. (Mayor Dirksen was elected for the remainder of the term.) • With the appointment of Councilor Dirksen to the office of Mayor for one year (2004), this left a City Council vacancy. The Council was also without a Council President. • Council members selected Councilor Nick Wilson to serve as Council President until December 31, 2004. • Council held an application and interview process and on February 24, 2004, selected Tom Woodruff to serve as City Councilor until December 31, 2004. (Councilor Woodruff subsequently successfully ran for office in November 2004 for the full four -year term, January 2005 through December 2008.) Procedures guided by Charter: 1. Appointment made for mayor's position for one year since the Charter gives Council discretion to appoint or call for an election. Council decided to do both by appointing Craig Dirksen to serve for one year and calling for an election for the last two years remaining on the late Mayor Griffith's term of office. 2. With less than one -year remaining on the term Councilor Dirksen vacated to become the appointed mayor, the City Council had the option of operating as a four- member council or appointing a City Councilor to complete the unexpired council position. The City Council chose to appoint Tom Woodruff. Because there was less than one year remaining on the term vacated by Dirksen, the City Council did not have the option of calling for an election. 2007 Situation — Councilor Sally Harding resigned April 24, 2007, to move to the east coast. Her term expired December 31, 2008.
