unanimous vote.
3. Election of a Chair and Vice-Chair
The board considered this item after agenda item #10,Non-Agenda Items.
4. Lake Oswego Presentation
Public Works Director Koellermeier introduced Lake Oswego City Engineer Joel Komarek.
Mr. Komarek gave a Powerpoint presentation which is on file in the IWB record.Topics
covered in the presentation included:
• History of Lake Oswego's water system development
• Lake Oswego has senior water rights,which take precedence over the state's in-
stream water rights.
• Treatment plant is located near Mary S.Young Park.
• Current water system was built in 1967.
Intergovernmental Water Board February 8,2006

• Tigard gets Lake Oswego water from the Waluga Reservoir by way of the Bonita
Road pump station.
• The $21.6 million improvements to "buildout" have not been done.
• IGA with Portland is being considered for an emergency water system intertie.
• Lake Oswego does not have a wholesale water contract with Portland, although the
city does have connections to the Portland system.
• A new water rule requires that municipal water providers prepare a water
conservation and management plan.Lake Oswego will submit its draft plan to
Oregon Water Resources this August.
• Partners of the South Fork Water Board are Oregon City and West Linn.
Lake Oswego has senior water rights for 34 mgd and this is not expected to be sufficient to
meet the future demand of both Tigard and Lake Oswego. The amount of surplus water
available after Lake Oswego completes its buildout is not known.Mr. Komarek explained
Lake Oswego's ultimate water demand hinges on the development of the Stafford urban
reserve area. Estimated water demand for this area ranges from 2 mgd to 5 mgd. Including
these estimates,peak demand at buildout is expected to be around 26 mgd
Mr. Komarek reported the treatment plant can be expanded to 32 mgd on the existing city-
owned property.This treatment facility might be developed for even greater capacity since
new technology enables processors to treat more water on a smaller footprint. Lake Oswego
owns additional property that could be considered for future expansion.
Water pumping,transmission and treatment improvements are needed.The current intake is
sized for 32 mgd. Both the raw and processed water transmission lines are deficient.
Lake Oswego's retail water rate is 83 cents per hundred.
Remaining issues:
■ How much water will Lake Oswego ultimately need when buildout is complete.
■ If the Lake Oswego supply is insufficient to meet Tigard's future needs, estimated to
be 20 mgd,how does Tigard address the shortfall.
S. Review the Intergovernmental Agreement for Joint Funding of a Water
Supply System Plan with the City of Lake Oswego
Public Works Director Koellermeier referred to the intergovernmental agreement in the
board's packet.The agreement is scheduled to go before the Lake Oswego City Council on
February 21 and the Tigard City Council on February 28. The cities will split the cost of the
Water Supply System Plan; estimated total cost is $250,000.Public Works Director
Koellermeier explained the plan will be comprehensive and will provide both cities with the
information they need to decide if the proposed partnership will meet their needs.This means
no further studies or research would be needed to implement the project.
Commissioners Scheiderich and Winn stated they had read the agreement and had no
concerns. The agreement has been reviewed by both cities'legal staff.
Intergovemmental Water Board February 8,2006

The timeline is to hire a consultant this spring and to have a draft plan available by the end
of August.Mr. Koellermeier said the results of the Tigard/Lake Oswego plan will coincide
with the decision on whether to continue as a partner in the Joint Water Commission
project.
A brief discussion on the Joint Water Commission (JWC) dam-raise project ensued. Concern
was expressed over a previous discussion with JWC representatives who indicated if the
project were downsized to a 25-foot dam,Tigard would not be able to participate and would
lose all equity in the project. Before committing more funding to the dam-raise project,
clarification on this issue was requested Commissioner Scheiderich said he would like to see
the feasibility studies capitalized.Mr. Koellermeier said he would prepare some information
on this topic.
Commissioner Scheiderich confirmed there was no further discussion and relayed the board
was comfortable with the agreement.
6. Status Report on the Tigard Water Building
Public Works Director Koellermeier referred to the cost allocation memo from Tom
Imdieke and the Facility Needs Analysis executive summary in the board's packet.Various
remodeling options and their corresponding costs were discussed briefly.The analysis
determined the water building is not sufficient to accommodate the long-term needs of the
Public Works Department;ultimately the department will need to relocate to a larger
facility.Therefore,the less expensive remodeling options will be implemented.Money
exists in the FY '05/06 budget for the remodel.
Mr. Koellermeier stated he would slow the relocation process to allow the board members
time to investigate the water building ownership issue.A legal analysis of the matter was
mentioned.
Commissioner Scheiderich suggested the members of the board should come back next
month with any concerns they have regarding the wording of the existing intergovernmental
agreement as it relates to the ownership of assets. Consensus was to discuss the matter next
month.
Mr. Koellermeier said he didn't want the remodel to be postponed until the legal analysis
was completed because the analysis will only determine cost allocation.Commissioner
Scheiderich said he assumed other city departments were being charged overhead and this
was just a question of whether the water building overhead revenue would go to the general
fund or the water fund.Commissioner Scheiderich added that he didn't think the issue of
rent and what fund would receive rent payments should delay the remodel.He commented
the building was somewhat of a "white-elephant" and was underutilized.
Mr. Koellermeier said he would provide each member with a signed copy of the IGA.

7. Public Information Proposal from the Tigard Water District
Public Works Director Koellermeier informed the IWB that the Tigard Water District
(TWD) is working on a public information campaign.Mr. Koellermeier pointed out that a
campaign focused on water source decisions will undoubtedly reach beyond the TWD
boundaries and the IWB will probably become involved at some point.The TWD has
retained a consultant to start working on graphics.
8. Informational Items
City of Sherwood and Willamette River
Public Works Director Koellermeier reported Sherwood has taken official action and has
notified the Willamette River Water Coalition (WRWC) of its intention to develop the
Willamette River as their water source.Tigard is a member of the WRWC and now has 90
days to decide whether it wishes to partner in the Sherwood project. In terms of size and
alignment,the Sherwood project will be designed to meet Sherwood's individual
requirements as opposed to taking a more global approach.A joint meeting between the
IWB and the Tigard City Council is scheduled for March 21 since the City needs to respond
to the WRWC within the 90-day time frame.
Donation of a Portion of the Canterbury Site for Park Use
Mr. Koellermeier advised the TWD had decided to hire an attorney to study the issue, so the
matter is currently"on hold."
9. Public Comments
Lisa Hamilton-Treick, 13565 SW Beef Bend Road, from the unincorporated Bull Mountain
area, shared her thoughts on the following:
• Boundaries and authority between the Tigard Water District (TWD),
Intergovernmental Water Board (IWB) and the City of Tigard are unclear.
• TWD owns valuable real estate.
• Inquired if it was the original intent,when the IWB was formed,that Bull Mountain
would be incorporated into the City of Tigard and the TWD dissolved This may
need to change given the failure of the annexation measure.
• Intergovernmental agreements vary among jurisdictions.
• Supports the Canterbury property be put to public use,but is not in favor of
disposing of the property.Can't anticipate future needs. Suggested the property be
leased to the City of Tigard for a dollar a year.
• Tigard has over-reached its authority in the past, so wants an open,unbiased
selection process for an attorney who can represent the interests of those who reside
in the unincorporated area, King City and Durham.
• Wants the decisions of IWB and recommendations of the TWD take into
consideration that things have changed and hoped the interests of the rate payers in
the unincorporated area,King City and Durham will be represented.
Intergovemmental Water Board February 8,2006

Public Works Director Koellermeier explained the TWD authorized their Chair to select an
attorney.Ms.Hamilton-Treick said she had attended the meeting and this was not what she
heard.Commissioner Froude added she was supposed to provide the TWD Chair with the
names of three attorneys and she had not yet done so.
Ms.Hamilton-Treick commented that she was surprised at the TWD meeting when the
Chair said he would work with Mr. Koellermeier regarding the attorney and there was no
discussion among the other board members.
10. Non-Agenda Items
None.
Note:Election of a Chair and Vice-Chair(agenda item #3)was considered at this
time.
Commissioner Froude nominated Commissioner Scheiderich as board Chair, Commissioner
Winn seconded the motion.The motion was approved unanimous vote.

4. Joint Water Commission (JWC) Presentation
Public Works Director Koellermeier introduced Tom VanderPlaat, with Clean Water
Services (CWS), and Kevin Hanway, representing the City of Hillsboro and the JWC. Mr.
Koellermeier relayed these individuals were going to provide the board with an update
on the Tualatin/Trask water supply.
Intergovernmental Water Board January 11,2006
1
Mr. VanderPlaat distributed a Powerpoint presentation. The presentation is included in
the IWB record. Topics covered in the presentation included the following:
■ Background and history of the water supply project
■ Feasibility study completed
• Currently working on the environmental impact study (EIS) and permitting
process
Note: Commissioner Patrick arrived at the meeting at 5:40 p.m.
■ Alternatives presented in the EIS:
- No action
- 40-foot raise of Scoggins Dam/Hagg Lake and raw water pipeline pump-
back
- Multiple source option - 25-foot raise of Scoggins Dam/Hagg Lake, raw
water pipeline pump-back, and Willamette River treatment plant
expansion
■ Explanation of pump-back
- If the dam were raised, the creeks that feed Hagg Lake would not provide
enough water to replenish the draw down.
- In winter, when the water levels are higher in the Tualatin River, the
pipeline would be used to pump water from the river into the lake,
replenishing the water supply.
■ Bureau of Reclamation wanted another option besides the 40-foot dam raise, so
the 25-foot raise was used for comparison.
■ EIS provides information on the impact of various alternatives, but does make
any decisions.
■ Decisions are made by policy bodies like the IWB and the Bureau of
Reclamation.
■ Local agencies will make the decision about their water source.
■ $288 million for dam raise for 40' raise
■ $208 million for dam raise for 25' raise
■ Working on securing federal funding for the EIS and feasibility study
- $221,000 awarded in last year's budget
- $287,000 awarded in this year's budget
■ Project timeline
- Draft EIS out for comments by June 2006
- Comments addressed
- Final EIS out in January 2007
- Start on permitting federal facility
- Start multi-year design process in 2008
■ Cost
- Tigard's estimated share of the 40-foot dam raise is $51.6 million
- Assumed Tigard would not participate in the 25-foot dam raise because
Tigard would get water from the Willamette River
■ Summarized Tigard's investment to date
- Tigard's share of the feasibility study $232,000 (18.8 percent interest)
- Tigard's share of the EIS $629,026 (19.5 percent interest)
■ In the next few months, Tigard will need to decide if it wants to participate in the
final EIS and permitting phase of the project. Tigard's estimated share is
Intergovernmental Water Board January11,2006
2
$558,000 (19.47 percent interest). Tigard is required to participate unless the city
finds another partner to take its water.
■ The draft of amendment 4 will address how any assets purchased by the project
will be handled. This amendment will be ready in the next week or so.
In response to a question about why the Willamette River was included as an EIS
alternative, Mr. Hanway replied that when alternatives needed to be presented, the
Willamette River appeared to be the best option to supplement the dam raise. He added
that if the dam is only raised 25-feet, the system could not meet all the demands of the
entire partnership, so a supplemental source needed to be identified for the purpose of
comparison. Mr. Koellermeier explained the EIS process is designed to compare
alternatives. He confirmed that the Willamette River was used as the supplemental water
source for the 25-foot dam raise since this scenario is plausible and many details
regarding this source are already known. Having this option allows the Bureau of
Reclamation to compare alternatives.
With regard to funding, Mr. VanderPlaat reiterated that municipal water supplies are not
funded by federal government. He relayed that he hoped to get some federal funding for
parts of the project such as flood control. He explained the Bureau of Reclamation will
sometimes do a 50/50 cost share on feasibility studies and environmental impact
studies. This is the federal money they are trying to obtain.
Mr. VanderPlaat relayed that in July, the JWC would finalize the EIS and the permitting.
In January 2007, he anticipates the jurisdictions involved will need to decide whether to
commit to the design and construction of the project.
A discussion occurred regarding Tigard's financial obligation to the project. Tigard has
committed to participate through the EIS (amendment 2) and must fulfill its funding
commitments for this phase of the project. The city has not committed to any funding
beyond this phase, although most of the other participants have already done so. Since
funding is dedicated to pay for each phase of the process, Tigard would not receive any
refund should it decide to withdraw from the partnership.
Kevin Hanway introduced himself as the Director of the Hillsboro Water Department. Mr.
Hanway noted Hillsboro manages the Joint Water Commission.
Mr. Hanway distributed two handouts depicting the latest drafts of the timing and cost
estimates for a 40-foot dam raise. The handouts are included in the IWB record. Mr.
Hanway noted the information provided is based on the assumption that all the current
partners get the bulk of their water through the JWC. Tualatin Valley Water District
(TVWD) customers will be voting on the Willamette as a possible water source in the
May election. The TVWD will decide in June whether it will continue as a partner with the
JWC or whether it will pursue other options. For the time being, the JWC is operating
under the assumption the TVWD will continue as a partner in the dam raising project.
The upcoming deadline for the Portland water contract must also be taken into
consideration. To replace Portland water, the JWC may have to start the design of a
water treatment plant expansion beginning July 1.
Mr. Hanway summarized his handouts which depict a timeline, production, project cost,
ownership proportions and investment cost. Current improvements, referred to as near
Intergovernmental Water Board January 11,2006
3
term improvements (NTI), will bring the Fern Hill reservoir up to 70 mgd capacity. In
2007, the phase one treatment plant expansion will result in 50 mgd. The phase two
expansion will be completed and online in 2009, at an estimated cost of$84 million.
Shortly after these expansions are completed, there will be a water deficit to supply the
treatment plant. The dam raise is shown to be online by the end of 2012, with production
at 120 mgd. This will be combined with the raw water pipeline to avoid flooding from the
overflow on the Tualatin River from treatment plant in summer. Phase 3 and 4 of the
treatment plant will increase output to 150 mgd. Demand will merit the pump-back in the
2020's with the final treatment plant expansion in 2035.
Mr. Hanway cautioned that the information provided underestimates Tigard's costs
because transmission capacity, getting the water from the treatment plant to Tigard, was
not included in the calculations. Not only will transmission capacity from the JWC to
Hillsboro need to be upgraded, but all the transmission capacity from Hillsboro to Tigard
has already been allocated to other JWC partners. A new transmission line, perhaps
over Copper Mountain, and some conveyance storage reservoirs would need to be
constructed. It is estimated transmission and storage would add and additional $75 to
$100 million to the overall project. Although some of the partners might share in this
cost, Tigard would likely fund the majority of the new transmission and storage because
it would receive the greatest benefit.
Mr. Koellermeier interjected that transmission is adequate for current demand because
Beaverton is not using its full transmission capacity. At some point, Beaverton is
expected to need its surplus capacity. He added that the numbers also didn't include any
buy-in to the existing system. The buy-in was estimated to cost between $15 and $20
million. Tigard is not participating in the Fern Hill reservoir project.
Due to flooding issues, it was noted the raw water pipeline will be built irrelevant of the
dam raise. However, the pump-back construction is contingent on the dam raise going
forward.
With regard to the where TVWD and the Wilsonville plant, a rough corridor for the
pipeline has been identified and depending on the participants, storage may be located
on Beaverton's Dernbackh site.
5. Long-Term Water Supply Decision-Making Process and Criteria
Public Works Director Koellermeier introduced discussed this item. He reminded the
board that the City Council supported the idea of establishing criteria for the selection
process. Mr. Koellermeier reviewed a handout which depicted potential selection criteria.
The scoring method and weighting factors were discussed.
Commissioner Winn suggested scoring should range from 1 to 3. Commissioner
Scheiderich did not support weighting the various criteria. Commissioner Carroll
expressed an interest in having all the relevant information summarized into a
presentation. He explained that some of the options would likely have a fatal flaw and
that these options should not be considered since they weren't feasible. Commissioner
Carroll requested a summation and fatal flaws analysis of the options. Commissioner
Scheiderich proposed weighting could be added at the end of the process.
Intergovernmental Water Board January 11,2006

Commissioner Winn expressed a preference for a summary document with a
streamlined layout and bullet points.
Mr. Koellermeier pointed out that not all the pertinent pieces of information may be
available. Some assumptions will need to be made. Mr. Koellermeier advised he would
work on a comparative analysis of the options.
6. Board Vacancies/Member At-Large Selection Process
Both Commissioner Carroll's and Commissioner Scheiderich' terms expired in
December 2005. Commissioner Carroll indicated he was willing to serve on the board for
another term.
Commissioner Carroll moved to reappoint Commissioner Scheiderich as the member-
at-large for another year. Commissioner Winn seconded the motion. The motion was
approved unanimous vote. It was noted that Commissioners were appointed for two-
year terms and the motion was amended to a 2006-2007 term.
7. Status Report on the Tigard Water Building
Public Works Director Koellermeier introduced this item. Commissioner Scheiderich
asked if the water building was owned by all members of the service area or was it
deemed to be owned by the City of Tigard. Mr. Koellermeier said the answer may be a
little of both. The agreement says assets that are used directly for water delivery have
been pledged to the City of Tigard. Other assets become the property of the city they
reside in.
The question of non-water employees paying rent was raised. Money collected would be
put into an account for the benefit of the district members.
Mr. Koellermeier said he wanted to inform the board about the city's proposal to
consolidate offices and maximize the use of water building. The building would house
water operations and some other functions.
Commissioner Scheiderich suggested the water district, King City and Durham come to
the next meeting ready to relay their preference about the issue of the city paying rent
for non-water staff who will be working in the water building. It was noted that any facility
payment would go to the water fund. Commissioner Scheiderich stated if the City of
Tigard was using a water system asset, the city needs to rent it or buy it. Commissioner
Carroll concurred.
A discussion occurred about previous City of Tigard staff working in the building and
whether or not they paid rent.
It was noted that any improvements to the building would be funded through the city.
Mr. Koellermeier brought up the issue of the water building sign, which is in disrepair. He
stated the current sign says "Tigard Water District," and he proposed calling the building
"Tigard Water."

MEMORANDUM
TO: Dennis Koellermeier, Public Works Director
FROM: Tom Imdieke, Interim Finance Director
RE: Costs Associated with Water Building
DATE: January 19, 2006
You had requested information from Finance as to how the costs associated with non-
water activities that are conducted out of the Water Building are actually expensed out
to the related funds. First, the costs associated with any remodel of the building will be
shared between all of the utility fund activities that will be located there. The allocation
will be based on a combination of number of employees by activity/function and square
footage. The ongoing operating costs, including maintenance, insurance, and etc. will
be calculated each fiscal year based on the City's cost allocation plan and charged to
each fund accordingly. If you need further clarification, please feel free to discuss this
further.

Project Description and Goals
The City of Tigard Department of Public Works solicited Architectural Services to provide a
Facility Needs Assessment that provides a cursory assessment of existing facilities, program-
ming services, and conceptual space planning. The goal of this solicitation was to determine
a method to best utilize the partially vacant Water Building to consolidate the Departments,
maximize their use of space, improve access to the public and create a more cost efficient and
modern work environment for staff.
The scope of work included the analysis of space usage of 65 employees with 23 staff in of-
fice environments in four separate buildings at three sites and 42 field staff spread over two
sites. The Department partially occupies the Water Building, and completely occupies the Pub-
lic Works Annex and the Public Works Yard. Both the Water Building and the Public Works
Yard include exterior space for parking and maintenance of fleet vehicles, storage of materials
and other Public Works related activities.
The Public Works department consists of Parks &Grounds, Water,Waste Water &Sewer and
Administration Divisions.
This Facility Needs Analysis was undertaken beginning in June 2005 to determine the scope
of work required to create an efficient work environment for the City of Tigard Public Works
Department staff. The following goals were addressed during the course of the analysis:
Identify facility needs for long term Public Works projections
Determine current condition and utilization of existing facilities
City of Tigard Public Works Department Facility Needs Analysis
Consolidate Public Works staff from three sites to one site
Improve the utilization of Water Building facility
Identify facilities for use by other City departments
Comply with long term Downtown Improvement Plan
Conform compliance with industry standards for Public Works departments
Process
The Project Team has taken the following steps to achieve the goals of this project:
Task 1: Inventory Existing Facilities
LRS and our consultants performed an on-site survey of existing facilities (Water Building
and Yard, Public Works Yard) in sufficient detail to assess the present condition and make
reasonable determination of the utilization of each building and service yard. The assessment
included a cursory evaluation of the buildings and site including each primary building system
including, mechanical, plumbing, fire protection, electrical, security, data, structural, ADA ac-
cess and architectural systems.
LRS provided an inventory of existing facilities and exterior storage yard area. Information
gathered for this inventory will be for future use by the City. This inventory was the basis of
determining the condition and utilization of the existing buildings and the existing building
components.
LRS provided a graphic summary of exterior storage and parking needs for materials used by
the Department based on a comprehensive list of equipment and materials provided by the
City. Parking needs include fleet vehicles, service vehicles, staff and public vehicles.
TASK 2: GATHER USER GROUP DATA
LRS utilized a survey instrument, distributed by the City to supervisory staff, that was tailored
to meet the needs of the Project to verify existing information. In this case, the survey focused
primarily on the facility conditions, space configuration, functional adjacencies, space needs
and projected growth. Follow-up interviews were held with supervisory staff to confirm the
findings in the survey. A concise summary of this information is provided in this document.
TASK 3: PROJECT FUTURE STAFF AND SPACE NEEDS
With input from the City and results of the survey, LRS summarized projections of future
personnel for each of the Divisions within Public Works. The projections define changes in
personnel by type and number in two five-year increments (2010 and 2015).
LRS projected future space needs based on the staff projections and average square foot
space needed per employee. Consideration was given to the use of existing modular furniture
where feasible. Future space needs include consideration for specialized equipment, storage,
conference and meeting room requirements.
TASK 4: PREPARE CONCEPTUAL DESIGN OPTIONS
LRS provided multiple schemes showing relationships of program requirements, utilization
of exterior yards, preliminary space and furniture layouts and approximate scope of work
required by each option. A rough order of magnitude cost for each option was included and
all five schemes have been presented for review and consideration by the City. Two schemes
have been designated as Interim Proposed Solutions, solutions that can achieve the goals of
increasing the efficiency of Public Works with the minimal cost. An Ideal Solution has been
identified that will give Public Works a guideline for making long term planning decisions.
Cost Estimates
All cost estimates contained in this report are preliminary in nature and are based on the
Consultant's best judgment and understanding of existing conditions, recommended modifica-
tions and replacement systems. The estimates are provided as a basis for evaluating each
recommendation and for comparing one recommendation against another. Estimates are for
typical construction hard costs including contractor's profit and overhead but exclude soft costs
such as consultant fees, special inspections, plan reviews, and other regulatory or develop-
mental fees unless otherwise noted.
Our team would like to thank the Department of Public Works staff for their invaluable input
and time spent assisting us with this process. Special thanks to Brian Roger, Rob Murchison
and Arnie Manzano.
(ity of Tigard Public Works Department facility Needs Analysis
Executive Summary
The following is a synopsis of the data compiled and an overview of the findings of this Facil-
ity Needs Analysis. This summary is divided into major categories of Existing Conditions,
Ideal Conditions, Options Developed and Interim Proposed Solution.
Existing Conditions
The existing Public Works Department is comprised of 66 full time positions and 4 seasonal
staff. The staff is distributed among multiple buildings at three sites, the Public Works Office
and Yard, Public Works Annex and the Water Building. The total available area at the three
sites totals 7.7 acres of total property including 14,375 SF of Office Space, 13,045 SF of
Warehouse/Shop Space. Summarized as follows:
Location Site Are # of Staff Office Shop Space
Space
Public Works Yard 3.27 Acres 21 2975 sf 5475 sf
Public Works Annex .35 Acres 8 1640 sf 0
Water Building 4.04 Acres 26 9760 sf7570 sf
TOTAL 7,07 Acres 14,375 sf 1 13,045 sf
`Water Building office space is only partially utilized by Public Works, rest of the building was
recently vacated by staff move to City Hall. All other areas noted are utilized 100% by Public
Works.
Public Works Office and Yard: The Warehouse and Yard areas serve the needs of the Parks
and Streets departments. The open space is adequate for these departments, well organized
and maintained. Parking is adequate and the location is centralized in the City. The Ware-
house buildings house some staff offices that may not be code compliant and lack adequate
ventilation, accessibility, and seismic protection.
The Office Building serves administrative staff space needs, as well as field crew, lunch and
shower areas. It also houses the SCADA equipment. The second floor offices are an inef-
ficient use of space for staff positions and are not handicap accessible. This building is well
maintained but due to the buildings age, the Heating/Ventilation systems are inadequate.
Other systems in need of upgrade or replacement to bring up to current standards include the
plumbing, accessibility and interior finishes. Though the building structure is in generally good
condition, it would not withstand a significant seismic event.
Public Works Annex:This building was not studied in detail as it is assumed that it will
be vacated at the earliest opportunity. This former residence meets the current space needs of
the balance of the administrative department but the layout of individual rooms as offices is
inefficient. The quality of the lighting and mechanical systems and interior finishes are not up
to current standards. The building roof and exterior is deteriorating and in need of upgrade
or replacement. This entire site area is subject to street realignment and may not be available
for future use.
Water Building: This building is modern compared to the Annex and Yard structures. The
spaces are in very good condition and well maintained. The open space is well laid out and
includes amenities not included at the older yard including a fuel station and a compliant
fity of Tigard Public Works Deportment Facility Needs Analysis
equipment cleaning area with proper drainage.
The office building provides a combination of open office spaces and private offices and will
allow an efficient furniture layout. A large public meeting room is available and is shared with
other departments and serves as the Emergency Operations Center for the City. The locker
room includes mud rooms, showers and a dry room, but they are small and accommoda-
tion for female staff is minimal. The electrical system includes emergency power systems and
adequate service for most uses. The mechanical system appears to be at the end of its useful
life and will require some upgrade as part of any renovation.
The exterior appearance of this building is a modern and well maintained masonry building
that is holding up well. Parking is adequate and is located at a highly visible intersection, yet
the yard areas are screened by low walls to maintain an organized appearance.
Ideal Conditions
Based on questionnaires, staff interviews and comparisons to similar Public Works depart-
ments, an ideal space program was developed with staffing projections in five and ten year
increments. Noted below is a summary of the required space including total recommended
site area, projected number of staff, and estimated area for Office and Shop/Warehouse
Space. It was a general concensus among staff that the ideal situation would be one site that
housed all Public Works functions. The current location, near to City Hall and centrally located
is preferred, but is not vital.

Options Developed
After determining the ideal conditions, several options were tested to determine feasibility. It
was a general consensus that the Water Building site alone is not adequate to accommodate
the ideal conditions. The Water Buildings can be expanded to consolidate staff, but the Yard
is not able to adequately serve the needs of the City without acquiring additional property.
The site is locked by the rail line to the north, public roads to the east and south, and the fire
station property to the west. If additional contiguous property could be found to the west of the
fire station, it is possible that the Water Building site could meet the ideal conditions, however,
this does not align with the City's Downtown Improvement Plan.
Two general sets of options were reviewed. Options 1 and 2 are slight variations based on the
expansion of the Water Building to accommodate all staff, but will require that the Yard area
remain in service. The Office can be re-used for purposes other than staff. These options open
the Annex building to be re-used or sold.
Options 3 and 4 are variations based on the staff remaining divided between the Office/Yard
and Water site, but consolidates the Annex staff into the Water Building. These are considered
to be the minimal required to improve the efficiency of the Department and are relatively cost
effective as short term solutions. No expansion of the Water Building is required. These op-
tions allow the Annex Building to be re-used or sold.
The Ideal Option, reflects comments noted above and provides pricing for the option of build-
ing an entirely new complex on a new site or adequate expansion of the Water Building site.
All costs below are based on current conditions and will increase by a factor of 3 to 446 for
every year projected. The costs are for construction and soft costs only and do not include
land purchase.

Excerpt Draft Minutes from the
Tigard Water District Meeting on January 23, 2006
4. Resolution — Desire to Declare a Portion of the Canterbury Site as Surplus
Property and Donate it to the City of Tigard for Use as a Park Site
Mr. Koellermeier presented a draft resolution for the Board to consider and displayed
a map that outlined the surplus portion of the Canterbury site. He explained the
request from the Intergovernmental Water Board (IWB) and City Council at their last
joint meeting to consider property not being used for water purposes for use as parks.
He talked to the city attorney about the necessary process to follow and briefed the
IWB on those issues. Highlights of the board discussion included the following points:
• This property (recorded under the name of the Tigard Water District) is clearly
identified in the intergovernmental agreement (IGA) as property within the
incorporated city limits
• Assets were originally divided into two asset groups: the assets used on a daily
basis to provide water and all the other assets
• City Attorney suggested first step of the process was for Board to declare that
portion of property surplus which clearly puts it in the second group of assets
Mr. Koellermeier referred to Commissioner Radley's e-mail of Monday and said he
understands his concerns on the issue. He explained that the process started when
Council directed the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board (PRAB) to begin a process
of identifying potential properties for park improvements in the Tigard City limits and
the unincorporated area. That process included an analysis of identifying
neighborhood parks as walkable within a half mile radius. Canterbury was identified
through the radius study.
Commissioner Rhine asked under what criteria is this being declared a surplus. Mr.
Koellermeier suggested the Board consider the criteria that this site has not been used
for water purposes for over 20 years and there is nothing in our water master plan
(through 2040) that indicates that any additional water facilities would be located at
that site that would be used for water purposes.
Commissioner Froude asked if this site might possibly be used for another well. Mr.
Koellermeier responded that he had talked to our hydro geologist and the likelihood of
putting another well on this property is very slim from the aspect of interference on
water wells if placed too close to each other. They have to be sited far enough apart
so the activities of one well do not affect the hydrology on the other well. Now that we
have perfected and re-drilled the well up near the reservoir site, the likelihood of a
second well is not very high.
Commissioner Radley asked what's going on the part of the site that will remain a
system asset. Mr. Koellermeier responded there are two reservoirs. There is a well
building. Originally the well was in that property and the casing rotted apart and failed,
so we re-drilled the well in another location and put a building there. There is the old
water building, which is currently being used for storage of surplus records/�dOeD
bins (for gravel, broken concrete, bark dust, etc.) used as a satellite facility by the
entire Public Works operations. This time of year we also park a large portable
restroom (generally down at Cook Park) until spring. The communication tower will be
located in that area also. Outside of this property is actually an unimproved right-of-
way with trails and planted with Christmas trees that are now about 35 ft. tall.
Recently we went through neighborhood notification and removed several dead and
hazardous trees.
Commissioner Rhine asked what is the gradient there (that's all fairly flat, isn't it).
Yes, Mr. Koellermeier responded, there might be 10-12 ft. of slope across the whole
thing.
Commissioner Froude asked will we ever have to put another reservoir there as things
develop. Mr. Koellermeier responded that he was really comfortable with the reservoir
analysis in that system-wide this is the 410 elevation. We actually have too much
storage at this elevation. Our issue with storage is at some of the other elevations.
Commissioner Delphine asked if there were any other possibilities of wanting to use
this property other than for parks. Mr. Koellermeier responded no. He has not heard
of any other interest in acquiring the property for any other purposes from the district.
Commissioner Rhine said the district has no interest in selling it to a commercial
developer or anything like that, right? Mr. Koellermeier said he has not had that
request and has not polled the board to confirm that. He believes the property is all
residentially zoned, but he would have to do some research about what all the various
things could be built there.
Commissioner Zeider asked how big is that piece of property. Mr. Koellermeier said
approximately two acres.
Commissioner Rhine asked if we were favorably disposed, what would be the process
we would have to go through? Would we have to get this approved by us and by the
IWB?
Mr. Koellermeier thought he would do both just to remove any doubt on which is the
body that actually deals with this issue. Ultimately, the process he has been advised
that we should take is: if this board declares this surplus to the purpose of water, then
he thinks we would move ahead and get a legal description for the property we are
interested in. He would recommend that we actually do a physical land partition of the
property. Then, you could say that you want to retain parcel 1, or A or B, or whatever
and what you are talking about surplus would have a legal description and create a
property line. At that point, then it is easy to do a deed name change on the property.
The agreement says this is already the City of Tigard, but it's still , and that's
just messy.
OLT&Ja
Right, Commissioner Froude said, and that's her issue. All the issues that are
questionable in the Intergovernmental Agreement should be settled before we start
changing any borders. Then, we will all be on the same page. She thinks the
Intergovernmental Water Board is also looking at this issue as far as clarifying what
words mean what, e.g., what an asset is, who the assets belong to and if there is a
sale or merger, what happens to the underground assets and the above ground
assets. She is not for doing anything, personally, until we look at the whole issue.
Commissioner Radley said he felt the same way and that's why he wrote the letter.
Commissioner Delphine asked if anyone knew the market value for that amount of
land.
Mr. Koellermeier said he has not done that analysis. He was looking through some
material and he found where Commissioner Froude, actually was the Chair at the
time, accepted the economic report of the dissolution of assets that talks about this
property and the process of what you were going to do with it. The question of what
the market value is today and, if we are going to transfer it between entities, are two
different things. If you want me to figure out what the market analysis is, then in
theory we should do an appraisal (I can get you something pretty close without
spending the money I would think).
Just a ballpark figure Commissioner Delphine said.
Before we do that, Commissioner Rhine thought there are some issues such as who
owns it, whose name is on the title, etc. He doesn't think we should spend money on
an appraisal or anything else until we get some of those issues cleared up.
Mr. Koellermeier concurred.
Commissioner Radley said it is about two acres and is worth probably at least a
million, maybe two.
Mr. Koellermeier said my guess is that would be high.
Commissioner Radley said I guess it is undeveloped, so it may not be that high.
Mr. Koellermeier said he is comfortable with the concerns that have been raised by
Mr. Radley and Mr. Rhine. He stated he needed direction as to what is it that you
want me to bring back. We've talked a little bit about value. Mr. Koellermeier asked
does the Board want him to have the City Attorney prepare an explanation of the
Agreement or would you like him to have the City Attorney come to a meeting
so the Board could ask him questions. Also, there is a suggestion that we hire
some independent legal advice.
�
Commissioner Delphine thought first we need to determine what the asse ifi!' �;7&)
ours, and if it is, what the options are as opposed to just donating it. Do we have other
options?
Commissioner Radley said he heard one other option is leasing instead of donation.
Commissioner Rhine said the real issue is who owns it. If we don't own it, we can't
lease it or transfer it.
Commissioner Radley noticed a difference in the process, e.g., the Tigard Tualatin
School district had some properties that they declared surplus and they followed a
very laborious process of public hearings. One of my questions is, did they do that
because they wanted to or was there a legal requirement that when land is declared
surplus that type of thing has to happened.
Mr. Koellermeier said the part that we are involved in has not been concluded at this
point. They have lists of surplus pieces of property that they are taking public
testimony on. I believe they have made no final decisions on any of them. Another
piece of school district property has also been identified through our park location
process so we are communicating with the school district.
Commissioner Froude proposed having an independent attorney look at the IGA.
When the agreement was written, it was written by the City of Tigard attorney. Not
that it was right or wrong, it just was. It has not been looked at by any of the Boards
since the original IGA.
Mr. Koellermeier made an assumption that their various attorneys reviewed the IGA
before the report was signed originally.
Commissioner Froude said they didn't.
Commissioner Rhine suggested before we get into what we should do, there are some
people present that would like to make comments.
Opened for Public Comment:
Lisa Hamilton-Treick, resident of the unincorporated area of Bull Mountain, learned
about the possible surplus of this property and it caused concern. Her research has
TWD as title owner of the Canterbury site. The annexation failed earlier, now there is
an effort to incorporate the area as a city which changes the whole idea of dissolving
these resources, turning them over to someone else. She personally does not want to
see these assets disposed of at this time.
She would strongly favor leasing these assets to the city. The area is not threatened
with being developed because it is held by the Water District. A $1 a year lease would
a a
D �D
be fine. It would serve the and it would protect this area a seTof
publics good a
those of us who reside in the Tigard Water District.
Before anything is done, she asks for an attorney (representing the interests of
the resident rate payers in the Tigard Water District) to look at this Agreement
from the perspective of representing our long-term interests. That land may
become very valuable. In the meantime, she thinks it is great to make it a park.
That's responsible use of the land. She supports the historical society. Property could
be used for weddings, fund raisers or other events in the area and does not need to
be sold or donated for it to serve the greater good of Tigard. I ask for an attorney to
represent my interest to look at this document. I would strongly encourage you as well
to make it available for the greater good and that it be a lease arrangement, rather
than a donation of very valuable land. As a real estate broker, she can assure you
that level land on the top of little Bull Mountain is worth hundreds of thousands of
dollars. (Presented board with letter dated this date- part of file)
Commissioner Delphine had a question about terms of the lease of it. If we were to
lease it to City of Tigard for a $1, would Section 3 under Resolution 06-01 where the
City of Tigard is responsible for any and all costs associated with the creation of a
park facility on the Canterbury surplus property, change and would we then be
responsible for it.
Commissioner Rhine commented that he didn't think anyone knows.
Mr. Koellermeier commented he didn't know yet. When he drafted this resolution, his
assumption was this Board would not bear any costs for surveying, and those kinds of
issues, or the actual putting of improvements on the park ground.
Commissioner Radley commented that the Water District is not a parks provider and
legally we cannot do any of that. The city has a Parks Department so they are a parks
provider. Mr. Koellermeier concurred with that.
Commissioner Delphine commented, if it is lease versus donated, where would the
costs fall under and whose responsibility is it?
Mr. Koellermeier responded he thinks its terms of the lease.
Commissioner Radley questioned the December 20th meeting referred to in the draft
resolution.
Mr. Koellermeier responded that he thought it was a work session and they keep
summary minutes of the work session. Either way, no decision was made at that
meeting.
Commissioner Rhine said he would like to focus on Item 4. Resolution — Desire to
Declare a Portion of the Canterbury Site as Surplus Property and donate it to the City
o
of Tigard for Use as a Park Site. It appears that there still seems to be soWL79)
unresolved issues around this in terms of how this relates to the actual Agreement,
whether or not (regardless of what the state says in terms of ownership) we really do
own it or not, etc. Would we like to instruct Dennis to get someone to review the
Agreement.
Commissioner Froude said she will furnish two names of attorneys.
For the sake of time, Mr. Koellermeier suggested he would generate some
names and, if any of the board members have an attorney with experience in
water districts and assets, please share those names. Then, he suggested a
small committee or the Chair could be involved in doing an interview or
proposal.
Commissioner Rhine commented that we need to get somebody that doesn't have any
skin in the game too. The next part of that then is, if we want to get somebody to
review the agreement and help give us some legal determination and advice on the
thing, what is the sense of urgency in getting this resolved. Is this something we
should have a meeting next month to come back and review?
Mr. Koellermeier commented that he does not have that level of urgency on it. He
would like to keep a little bit of inertia on it from the aspect that if it is found in favor,
then we have to get into the construction (public notification window) of developing a
park. Some of that work may be summer related. We are dealing with construction
issues. A timeline (of three months to our next meeting) was suggested to give him
adequate time (if the Board or Chair would authorize and work with him) to retain an
attorney and have an opinion written that answers what he believes the questions are.
Commission Froude commented that since it has been there all this time (it's not
moving) and, if it doesn't even get done this year with the park, the world is not going
to stop tilting on it axis. But, we shouldn't drag on.
Mr. Koellermeier asked is it fair to assume how this Agreement affects the assets is
bigger than just this property. Also, where does the Board make decisions, where
does the IWB make decisions and where do we do joint decisions.
Commissioner Rhine responded yes. He would like Mr. Koellermeier to come back
with an additional explanation of what the 40 year plan is and why this is surplus.
Mr. Koellermeier said he could do that. He might even bring the authors of the 40
year plan and the consulting engineers involved to explain that logic.
Commissioner Radley reviewed all points in detail of his letter.
Mr. Koellermeier will provide signed copies of the agreements with the other IWB
agencies.
DCommissioner Rhine and Mr. Koellermeier will interview a couple o diffeLV
0a
candidates for giving legal advice on this particular issue.
Commissioner Froude suggested the clarification of assets, as used in the Agreement,
needs to be defined.
Commissioner Radley commented that parks, in general, are a good thing. He has no
objection to the park.
8. Non-Agenda Items
Commissioner Radley referred to the city incorporation efforts on Bull Mountain
mentioned in the appendix of his letter. A report stating the five options is available on
the web. If a new city was formed on Bull Mountain, it would not have Water or Public
Works departments in the beginning and may elect to continue to work through the
Tigard Water District for a period of time. Commissioner Rhine reminded
Commissioner Radley that the TWD represented the unincorporated area of
Washington County only. Items to discuss with the attorneys should include the
process involved to add a new entity to the IWB.
