RE: Tiedeman Crossing, LLC Minor Modification MMD2007 -00018
Dear Mr. Morin:
This letter is in response to your request for approval for a Minor Modification (MMD2007- 00018) at 11445 SW
Tiedeman Avenue, WCTM 1S135CB, Tax Lot 300. You have requested to m the site by building a 144
square foot addition to the existing 2,201 square foot warehouse and remodel the entire 'warehouse. The
submitted site plan reflects the current and proposed conditions.
Analysis of Modification Request:
Section 18.360.060 of the Tigard Development Code Site Development Review chapter states: "Any
modification which is not within the description of a major modification as provided in section 18.360.050 shall
be considered a minor modification."
Section 18.360.050 states that the Director shall determine that a major modification(s) has resulted if one (1)
or more of the changes listed below have been proposed:
1. An increase in dwelling unit density or lot coverage -for residential development. The proposal
does not involve residential development. Therefore, this criterion does not apply.
2. A change in the ratio or number of different types of dwelling units. The proposal does not
involve residential development. Therefore, this criterion does not apply.
3. A change that requires additional on -site parking in accordance with Chapter 18.765. The
existing use, a contracting business, will remain the same. Therefore, the parking requirement remains
the same and the proposed change is not one that will require additional onsite parking in accordance
with Chapter 18.765.
4. A change in the type of commercial or industrial structures as defined by the Uniform
Building Code. There will be no change in the type of industrial structure as defined by the Building
Code. The applicant indicates that the remodel will bring the warehouse into compliance with the
current Building Code and the addition will be of the same type of structure.
5. An increase in the height of the building(s) by more than 20 percent. The applicant has not
proposed to increase the height of the building. Therefore, this criterion does not apply.
6. A change in the type and location of accessways and parking areas where off -site traffic
would be affected. The proposal does not include changes to the access points, driveway aisles, or
location of parking. Therefore, this criterion does not apply.
7. An increase in vehicular traffic to and from the site and the increase can be expected to
exceed 100 vehicles per day. The 144 square foot increase of warehouse space is not expected to
increase traffic significantly. Therefore, it is unlikely to generate more than 100 vehicles per day.

8. An increase in the floor areas proposed for a non- residential use by more than ten percent
excluding expansions under 5,000 square feet. The proposed addition is 144 square feet and the
existing office /warehouse building is 6,399 square feet. In addition, there is an additional storage
building onsite, the area of which the applicant did not provide. Therefore, the proposed addition is
less than 2% of the existing floor area.
9. A reduction in the area reserved for common open space and /or usable open space that
reduces the open space area below the minimum required by the code or reduces the open
space areas by more than ten percent. The proposed addition will be replacing existing asphalt.
Therefore, this criterion does not apply.
10. A reduction of project amenities (recreational facilities, screening; and /or, landscaping
provisions) below the minimum established by the code or by more than ten percent where
specified in the site plan. The proposed addition will be replacing existing asphalt. Therefore, this
criterion does not apply.
11. A modification to the conditions imposed at the time of Site Development Review approval
that is not the subject of criteria (B)..1 through 10 above this subsection. There have not been
any previous conditions of approval for the use of this site. Therefore, this criterion does not apply.
THIS REQUEST HAS BEEN APPROVED BY THE CURRENT PLANNING DIVISION.
PLEASE SUBMIT A COPY OF THIS LETTER WITH YOUR BUILDING PERMIT
APPLICATION.
This request is determined to be a minor modification to an approved site development plan. The Director's
designee has determined that the proposed minor modification of this existing plan will continue to promote the
general welfare of the City and will not be significantly detrimental, nor injurious to surrounding properties
provided that, .. development which occurs after this decision complies with all applicable local, state, and federal
laws.
If you need additional information or have any questions, please call the Current Planning Division at
(503) 639 -4171 or stop by the Permit Center at CityHall,13125 SW Hall Blvd, Tigard, OR 97223.
