Dear Mr. Ries:
This letter is in response to your request for Minor Modification approval to place a new community building
on the grounds and enhance the existing playground and landscaping at the Villa La Paz Apartments at
11895 SW 91st Avenue.
The Tigard Community Development Code, Site Development Review Section, states: "if the requested
modification meets any of the major modification criteria, the request shall be reviewed as a new Site
Development Review application."
Section 18.120.070(B) states that the Director shall determine that a major modification(s) will result if
one (1) or more of the following changes are proposed:
1. An increase in dwelling unit density, or lot coverage for residential development.
The proposal does not include the addition of any dwelling units.
2. A change in the ratio or number of different types of dwelling units.
This criteria is not applicable as this request does not involve the addition of residential dwelling
units as previously indicated.
3. A change that requires additional on-site parking in accordance with Chapter 18.106.
The change is to serve existing tenants of the site, therefore, no additional vehicle trips will be
created and additional on-site parking spaces are not necessary.
4. A change in the type of commercial or industrial structures as defined by the Uniform
Building Code.
There ass no commercial or industrial structures in this proposal.
5. An increase in the height of the building(s) by more than 20 percent.
No existing building will be increased in height and the proposed community building will be a
one (1) story structure.
6. A change in the type and location of accessways and parking areas where off-site traffic
would be affected.
This request will not require a change in accessways or parking areas where off-site traffic
would be affected.
7. An increase in vehicular traffic to, and from the site, and the increase can be expected to
exceed 20 vehicles per day.
As previously mentioned, the proposed modification will not result in an increase in vehicular
traffic to or from the site.
13125 SW Hall Blvd., Tigard, OR 97223 (503) 639-4171 TDD (503)684-2772 —
8. An increase in the floor area proposed for a non-residential use by more than 10 percent
excluding expansions under 5,000 square feet.
The proposal is to increase the existing community building by approximately 2,850 square feet,
well under the 5,000 square foot requirement.
9. A reduction in the area reserved for common open space and/or usable open space which
reduces the open space area below the minimum required by this code or reduces the
open space area by more than 10 percent.
There is no reduction in the amount of common open space since the community building itself
is defined as common open space.
10. A reduction of project amenities (Recreational facilities, Screening; and/or, Landscaping
provisions) below the minimum established by this code or by more than 10 percent where
specified in the site plan.
There will be no reduction in the amount or area of existing amenities. The playground will be
retained and improved, as will the landscaping. All improvements to this apartment complex add
amenities and do not eliminate any.
11. A modification to the conditions imposed at the time of Site Development Review approval
which are not the subject of B. 1 through 10 above.
The City has found record of final building permit approval in March of 1969. No Site Development
Review or Conditional Use files were found, however, it is likely that this development was
constructed before responsibility for planning was transferred from Washington County to the City of
Tigard. Records may be stored at Washington County. Due to the age of the structure and the fact
that building permits were received and finaled for the original construction of the building, staff is
concluding that the use of the property for multi-family residential is a pre-existing non-conforming
use. This proposal will not increase the non-conforming status because additional dwelling units will
not be added as a result of this proposal. This proposal will not adversely modify conditions that may
have been required with the original approval.
This request is determined to be a minor modification to an existing site. The Director's designee has
determined that the proposed minor modification of this existing site will 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.
THIS REQUEST HAS BEEN APPROVED SUBJECT TO THE FOLLOWING CONDITION:
1. Obtain a building permit for the construction of the community center.
Please provide a copy of this letter when applying for permits. There is a fee for the required permits.
Please contact the Development Services Division for information on the current fees. If you need additional
information or have any questions, please feel free to call me.
Sincerely,
/4/

RE: Villa La Paz Apartments
Minor Modification for Phase 2
Dear Julia:
As per our pre-application conference on Tuesday, June 10 ,
1997 , we are enclosing three copies of the site plan
showing the extent of the design of phase 2 of the Villa
La Paz Apartment Renovation (construction has nearly been
completed on the Phase 1 repair of the existing apartment
\units) . As per the requirements of the Minor
Modification, a narrative explaining our rationale
follows .
Phase 2 for this project is to place a new community
building on the grounds of the existing apartment complex,
to complete the landscaping and to enhance the existing
playground for the children that live there.
This community building will be less than 5000 square
feet, and will include amenities for the tenants such as ,
a community meeting room, book area, postal boxes, rental
office, storage, etc .... The landscaping will place easy to
maintain flowers and shrubs throughout the complex.
In order of their appearance in the Tigard Municipal Code,
the following issues are answered:
1. Dwelling Unit Density: The dwelling unit density of this project
will not be increased since the project is for a community
building for the tenants.
2 . A Change in the Ratio or Number of Different Types of Units:
Changing the unit ratios and/or numbers of units is not a part of
this project.
3. Chance That Reauires Additional Parking: The proposed change does
not trigger additional parking requirements. The existing number
of parking spaces will remain and the parking lot has been re-
striped under the phase 1 documents to show compact spaces to be
no more than 40% of the number of the existing spaces.
4. A Change in the Type of Commercial or Industrial Structures:
There are no commercial or industrial structures on the property.
5. Buildina Height Increase: No existing building has been increased
in height, and the new community building is a one story
structure.
