Work started in earnest on the project in September 2007. A design subcommittee made up of members of the Planning Commission and the City Center Advisory Commission (CCAC) worked with staff for about a year in developing a draft code. After substantial completion of the draft code, an open house was held in July 2008. Approximately 30 property and business owners and other stakeholders attended and provided feedback. Code Assistance In order to have the draft reviewed by professional consultants in land use and to provide graphics to illustrate provisions of the code, staff applied for Transportation Growth Management Code Assistance grant from the state. Starting in December, 2008, a project team consisting of consultants in land use (Angelo Planning Group) and architecture (SERA Architects) evaluated the proposed code language and recommended changes to improve their clarity and better meet the intent of creating a pedestrian oriented urban village. The architecture consultants, which included Marcy Mclnelly, a leading expert in form-based codes (land use codes which emphasize the physical form of development), completed draft illustrations that will accompany the code. At the direction of staff, the consultants also did an innovative exercise which demonstrated how site plans at three sites would respond to the proposed development standards, height limits, setbacks, etc. This led to an understanding of the feasibility of development under the new code, and resulted in some revisions to the draft code language. Staff believes the Code Assistance review has resulted in a stronger code that is consistent with the values of the Tigard Downtown Improvement Plan and Comprehensive Plan;is relatively simple for applicants, staff, and the public to understand; will result in well designed buildings; and supports the land uses and residential densities necessary to spur economic development in the Downtown. I Summary of New Downtown Land Use and Design Regulations The code amendments are intended to maximize flexibility in the location of land uses while requiring high design standards. Here is a summary of the draft code as it currently stands: Land Use: • All of the Downtown Urban Renewal District will be designated with the new zone Mixed Use- Central Business District (MU-CBD). The new zone will also extend outside the Urban Renewal District boundaries to include the Main Street Village Apartments site and the properties associated with the recently purchased "Fanno Creek House" on Hall Blvd. Like the existing CBD zone, a wide range of uses from retail, office, residential, and mixed use will be allowed. The proposed re-zone will also allow mixed use development previously not permitted in the properties zoned General Commercial (C-G) in the Hall and 99W area. Consistent with the current CBD zoning, new industrial uses and auto-oriented uses will not be permitted (those that exist at the time the code is adopted can continue, including those that were zoned C-G.) • The maximum density allowed in the MU- CBD has not been finalized. Early feedback from the Oregon Department of Transportation indicated that to raise it to 80 units per acre (from the 40 units per acre currently permitted in the current CBD zoning) would require the City to perform comprehensive traffic impact studies to address the Transportation Planning Rule. This point will be evaluated. Potential alternatives include a smaller increase in density (to 50 units per acre), raising the maximum density in selected areas, and/or revisiting density question when the future of high capacity transit in the Highway 99W Corridor is determined. • The MU-CBD zone is further divided into four "sub-areas." While the range of allowed uses are mainly uniform throughout the district, development standards such as building height and setbacks are defined by the sub-areas. Organizing the regulations like this will help create a more consistent public realm within the sub- areas. For example, the properties on Main Street are restricted to three floors and can have zero setbacks,while properties at the Hall and 99W intersection will have a height limit of 8 stories and front setbacks of 15 feet. Non-conforming Uses and Development • The non-conforming use provisions are extremely generous, calling out that all existing development may continue (and, if destroyed, be re-established within one year). If a renovation is planned for an existing building, only the renovated portion must meet the new design requirements. Design Standards • Requirements for commercial/mixed use developments and residential only standards differ in level of detail, mostly due to the requirements for storefront features for commercial and mixed use buildings. • f r . • Private open space: The amount of private open space for multi-family development, including as part of a mixed use development, will be reduced from what is currently required by the Site Development Review chapter of the Development Code from 48 sf to 32 sf. One point still to be evaluated is whether to require all multi-family units to have private open space, or some reduced number, such as 80%, due to the challenges of providing this space with higher density development. • Shared open space: The amount of required shared open space for multi-family development, including as part of a mixed use development will be reduced from what is currently required by the Site Development Review chapter of the Development Code. From 200-300 sf. per unit to 10% of the site. This would allow a more urban form of development in the Downtown. A fee in lieu of process would be offered as an option for the provision of shared open space. • Discretionary design standards will provide a "safety valve" for well-designed projects that can't meet the clear and objective standards. A review body will have to be established, either a new body made up of design professionals, or a subcommittee of the Planning Commission. • Projects in the Urban Renewal District would not undergo Site Development Review, but would be reviewed under this chapter and other applicable chapters (street standards, etc.). Parking: • Minimum parking standards will be eliminated for development on Main Street and reduced to one space per unit for multi-family residential. A 40% adjustment in the minimum required parking if certain conditions can be met. Further reductions in minimum parking may be made after monitoring parking in the district. Schedule for Adoption The City Center Advisory Commission will review the draft code at their May and June meetings after which they will be asked to endorse the draft. An Open House will follow at the end of July. Planning Commission workshops and public hearings will be scheduled starting in July. City of Tigard TIGARD Memorandum To: President Jodie Inman and Members of the Planning Commission From: Sean Farrelly, Senior Planner Re: Cover Memo for Agenda Item 5.1 Downtown Land Use Regulations and Design Standards Date: April 27, 2009 The purpose of the May 2, 2009 presentation on the Downtown Land Use Regulations and Design Standards is an information session on the draft code and an early opportunity to raise questions, prior to the more formal workshops that will lead into public hearings later this summer. A presentation will be given by consultants who reviewed and refined the draft as part of a Transportation and Growth Management Code Assistance grant. The presentation will include their assessment of the code, as well as an explanation of the overall approach of the code and some specific provisions. The attached draft code is for reference. The language may be revised during upcoming sessions with the City Center Advisory Commission.During the Planning Commission workshops later this summer, staff will provide a more user friendly version of the code with expanded commentary and explanation of how the new code compares to existing code language. REVISED 4/23/09 Proposed Downtown Tigard Code Amendments DRAFT #3 Introduction The proposed Code Amendments are intended to implement the Tigard Downtown Improvement Plan. The Downtown Chapter of the Comprehensive Plan establishes the policy framework for necessary code amendments. Plan policies and concepts will primarily be implemented by amendments to the Community Development Code. Development code amendments fall into two basic categories: 1. Amendments to the existing code section: Decision-Making Procedures (18390) Commercial Zoning Districts (18.520) Others* 2. New code section: Tigard Downtown District Site and Building Design Standards and Objectives (18.610) The Tigard Downtown District Site and Building Design Standards Chapter is comprised of amendments that create a new section in the development code. The chapter provides new development standards to address dimensional requirements (such as structure height and setbacks), building design, site planning, requirements for special areas and sites, and provisions for adjustments for specific conditions. The site and design standards are triggered when application for new development is made. *Additional chapters that may need updating to reflect new code language include: 18.120 Definitions Update 18.1.30 Use Classifications Update 18.310 Summary of Land Use Permits Update 18.745.1 Landscaping(CBD in buffer matrix) 18.760 Nonconforming Situations 18.765 Off-Street parking and loading requirements Potential reduction of minimum required off street parking for some uses. Reduce aisle requirement to allow easier rear parking 18.765.060 Parking Structure Design Standards 18.780 Signs:Update current CBD requirements.Add new MU-CBD requirements,including specifcalfy allow blade signs(with 8 foot clearance.) Projecting and blade signs are permitted and must have at least 8 feet clearance from the bottom of the sign to the sidewalk. 18.795 Visual Clearance Areas 18.795.030 Except within the CBD Zoning district a visual clearance area shall be maintained on the corners of all propeny adjacent to the intersection of two streets,a street and a railroad,or a driveway providing access to a public or private street. 18.810 Street and Utility Improvement Standards 18.810.070 Sidewalks D. Sidewalks in central business district.In the central business district,sidewalks shall be 10 feet in width,and: 1.All sidewalks shall provide a continuous unobstructed path;and 2. The width of curbside sidewalks shall be measured from the back of the curb. 1 REVISED 4/23/09 18.810.120.0 Utilities Delete exemption of CBD for undergrounding util'ties. The proposed amendments modifr Commercial Zoning Districts (Chapter 18.520). These changes establish a Mixed Use-Central Business District(MU-CBD.)It would replace the Central Business Disrric7 (CBD) Zone and expand the tone boundaries to include all properties in the Urban Renewal District—which are currently Zoned Central Business District(CBD), General Commercial(C-G), Commercial and Professional Commercial(C-P), and five properties toned R-4.5.

Part 1 : Amendments to the Existing Code Sections Chapter 18.390 DECISION-MAKING PROCEDURES Sections: 18.390.010 Purpose 18.390.020 Description of Decision-Making Procedures 18.390.030 Type I Procedure 18.390.040 Type II Procedure 18.390.050 Type III Procedure 18.390.060 Type IV Procedure 18.390.070 Special Procedures 18.390.080 General Provisions 18.390.010 Purpose A. Purpose.The purpose of this chapter is to establish a series of standard decision-making procedures that will enable the City,the applicant,and all interested parties to reasonably review applications and participate in the local decision-making process in a timely and effective way. Each permit or action set forth in Chapters 18.320- 18.385 has been assigned a specific procedure type. 18.390.020 Description of Decision-Making Procedures A. General. All development permit applications shall be decided by using one of the following procedure types. The procedure type assigned to each action governs the decision-making process for that permit,except to the extent otherwise required by applicable state or federal law. The Director shall be responsible for assigning specific procedure types to individual permit or action requests,as requested. Special alternative decision-making procedures have been developed by the City in accordance with existing state law, and are codified in Section 18.390.070. B. Types defined.There are four types of decision-making procedures,as follows: 1. Type I Procedure. Type I procedures apply to ministerial permits and actions containing clear and objective approval criteria. Type I actions are decided by the Director without public notice and without a public hearing; 2. Type II Procedure. Type II procedures apply to quasi-judicial permits and actions that contain 2 REVISED 4/23/09 some discretionary criteria. Type 1I actions are decided by the Director with public notice and an opportunity for a hearing. If any party with standing appeals a Director's Type H decision,the appeal of such decision will be heard by the Hearings Officer; 3. Type III Procedure. Type III procedures apply to quasi-judicial permits and actions that predominantly contain discretionary approval criteria.Type III actions are decided by-either the Hearings Office(Type III.-HO),OF the Planning Commission(Type III-PC),or Design Review Board (Type HI- DRB)with appeals to or review by the City Council; 4. Type IV Procedure. Type IV procedures apply to legislative matters. Legislative matters involve the creation, revision, or large-scale implementation of public policy.Type IV matters are considered initially by the Planning Commission with final decisions made by the City Council. C. Summary of permits by decision-making procedure type. Table 18.390.1 summarizes the various land use permits by the type of decision-making procedure.

C-N: Neighborhood Commercial District.The C-N zoning district is designed to provide convenience goods and services within a small cluster of stores adjacent to residential neighborhoods. Convenience goods and services are those which are purchased frequently,i.e.,at least weekly; for which comparison buying is not required;and which can be sustained in a limited trade area. Such uses include convenience markets,personal services and repair shops.A limited number of other uses,including but not limited to restaurants,gas stations,medical centers,religious institutions, transit-related park-and-ride lots and facilities with drive-up windows, are permitted conditionally. B. C-C: Community Commercial District. The C-C zoning district is designed to provide convenience shopping facilities which meet the regular needs of nearby residential neighborhoods. With a service area of about 1.5 miles,such commercial centers typically range in size from 30,000 - 100,000 gross square feet on sites ranging from 2 - 8 acres. Separated from other commercially- zoned areas by at least one-half mile,community commercial centers are intended to serve several residential neighborhoods,ideally at the intersection of two or more collector streets or at the intersection of an arterial and collector street. Housing is permitted on or above the second floor of commercial structures at a density not to exceed 12 units/net acre,e.g., the maximum density permitted in the R-12 zone. A limited number of other uses,including but not limited to car washes, gas stations,religious institutions, and transit-related park-and-ride lots,are permitted conditionally. In addition to mandatory site development review,design and development standards in the C-C zone have been adopted to insure that developments will be well-integrated,attractively landscaped, and pedestrian-friendly. C. C-G: General Commercial District.The C-G zoning district is designed to accommodate a full range of retail,office and civic uses with a City-wide and even regional trade area. Except where non-conforming,residential uses are limited to single-family residences which are located on the same site as a permitted use.A wide range of uses,including but not limited to adult entertainment, automotive equipment repair and storage,mini-warehouses, utilities, heliports,medical centers, major event entertainment,and gasoline stations, are permitted conditionally. D. C-P: Professional/Administrative Commercial District. The C-P zoning district is designed to accommodate civic and business/professional services and compatible support services,e.g., convenience retail and personal services,restaurants,in close proximity to residential areas and major transportation facilities. Within the Tigard Triangle and Bull Mountain Road District, residential uses at a minimum density of 32 units/net acre,i.e.,equivalent to the R-40 zoning district, are permitted in conjunction with a commercial development. Heliports, medical centers,religious institutions and utilities are permitted conditionally. Developments in the C-P zoning district are intended to serve as a buffer between residential areas and more-intensive commercial and industrial areas. 6 REVISED 4/23/09 E. CBD: Central Business District. The CBD zoning district is designed to provide a concentrated central business district,centered en the City's historic downtown, including a mix e --civic,retail E. Mixed Use-Central Business District MU-CBD. The MU-CBD zoning district is designed to provide a pedestrian friendly urban village in Downtown Tigard. A wide variety of commercial, civic, employment, mixed-use, multi-family and attached single family residences are permitted. New development and redevelopment is required to conform to the standards of Chapter 18.610. Staff Commentary on Section E: The Commercial Zoning District known as the Central Business District(CBD)will be changed to the Mixed-Use Central Business District(MU-CBD). The new land use categories for the MU-CBD will be inserted into Table 18.520.1, the "Use Table,"and will replace the CBD <one. For Table 18.520.2 Commercial Development Stan- dards, the CBD column will be replaced by a column for MU-CBD. There will be an asterisk directing the user to the Downtown Design Standards chapter,for.pecific development standards for the building form. F. MUE: Mixed-Use Employment. The MUE zoning district is designed to apply to a majority of the land within the Tigard Triangle, a regional mixed-use employment district bounded by Pacific Highway (Hwy. 99),Highway 217 and I-5. This zoning district permits a wide range of uses including major retail goods and services,business/professional offices, civic uses and housing; the latter includes multi-family housing at a maximum density of 25 units/acre, equivalent to the R-25 zoning district. A wide range of uses,including but not limited to community recreation facilities, religious institutions, medical centers, schools,utilities and transit-related park-and-ride lots, are permitted conditionally. Although it is recognized that the automobile will accommodate the vast majority of trips to and within the Triangle,it is still important to 1) support alternative modes of transportation to the greatest extent possible;and 2) encourage a mix of uses to facilitate intra- district pedestrian and transit trips even for those who drive. The zone may be applied elsewhere in the City through the legislative process. G. MUE-1 and MUE-2: Mixed Use Employment Districts. The MUE-1 and 2 zoning district is designed to apply to areas where employment uses such as office,research and development and light manufacturing are concentrated. Commercial and retail support uses are allowed but are limited, and residential uses are permitted which are compatible with employment character of the area. Lincoln Center is an example of an area designated MUE-1, the high density mixed use employment district. The Nimbus area is an example of an area designated MUE-2 requiring more moderate densities. H. MUC: Mixed Use Commercial District. The MUC zoning district includes land around the Washington Square Mall and land immediately west of Highway 217. Primary uses permitted include office buildings,retail, and service uses.Also permitted are mixed-use developments and housing at densities of 50 units per acre. Larger buildings are encouraged in this area with parking under, behind or to the sides of buildings. I. MUC-1: Mixed Use Commercial— 1.The MUC-1 zoning district,which is designed to apply to that portion of the Durham Quarry site within the City of Tigard,is a mixed-use commercial district bounded by 72nd Avenue,Findlay Street and the Tigard,Tualatin and Durham city limits. This site is the subject of an intergovernmental agreement between the cities of Tigard and Tualatin. Pursuant 7 REVISED 4/23/09 to that agreement the City of Tualatin shall furnish all planning, building and associated development review/permit services for the property. This zoning district is intended to mirror the City of Tualatin's Mixed Use Commercial Overlay District(I DC,Chapter 57). It permits a wide range of uses including commercial lodging,general retail,offices and housing;the latter includes multi-family housing at a minimum density of 25 units/acre and a maximum of 50 units/acre. Additional uses,including but not limited to major event entertainment and motor vehicle retail fuel sales, are permitted conditionally. In addition to the standards of this chapter, development within this zone is subject to the standards of Chapter 18.640. J. MUR: Mixed Use Residential Districts. The MUR zoning district is designed to apply to predominantly residential areas where mixed-uses are permitted when compatible with the residential use.A high density (MUR-1) and moderate density (MUR-2) designation is available within the MUR zoning district. (02-33) 18.520.060 Additional Development and Design Guidelines A. Development/design guidelines in the C-C zone. 1.The following design guidelines are strongly encouraged for developments within the C-C district. Conditions of approval of the development plan may include,but are not limited to,any of the site and building design guidelines deemed appropriate to be mandatory. a. Building design guidelines: (1)The design of buildings within a community commercial development should incorporate elements such as special architectural details, distinctive color schemes, special art and other features, which are sensitive to and enhance the surrounding area and serve to distinguish the complex from other retail complexes in the city; (2) All buildings within a multi-building complex should achieve a unity of design through the use of similar architectural elements,such as roof form,exterior building materials, colors and window pat- tern; (3) Individual buildings should incorporate similar design elements,such as surface materials, color, roof treatment,windows and doors, on all sides of the building to achieve a unity of design. The sides of a building which face toward a public street should include public entrances to the building and windows to provide visual access to the activity within the building.The sides of a building which face toward an adjoining property,but not toward a public street,should include elements such as windows,doors, color, texture,landscaping or wall treatment to provide visual interest and prevent the development of a long continuous blank wall. b. General site design guidelines: Loading areas should not be located on the side of a building which faces toward a residential use. Loading areas,if located between the building and the street, should be oriented away from the street and should be screened to minimize views of the loading area from the street and sidewalk. 2. Design standards:The following mandatory design standards apply within the community commercial district: a. Internal Walkways. (1) Walkways,eight feet minimum width,shall be provided from the public sidewalk or right-of-way to the building(s).At a minimum,walkways shall be located to connect focus points of pedestrian activity such as transit stops and street crossings to the major building entry points; (2) Walkways, five feet minimum width,shall be provided to connect with walkways or potential walkway locations on adjoining properties to create an integrated internal walkway system along the desired lines of pedestrian travel.The width of the walkway should be commensurate with the anticipated level of pedestrian activity along the connecting walkway. 8 • REVISED 4/23/09 (a) Walkways shall be provided along the full length of the building on any side which provides building access to the public or where public parking is available, to provide safe and comfortable pedestrian access to the building; (b) On the sides of the building which provide public access into the building, the walkway should be wide enough to allow for sidewalk seating areas as well as pedestrian travel. Weather protection of the walkway should be provided at a minimum at the entrance area and,if appropriate, along the entire walkway. (3) Walkway surfaces for walkways crossing parking areas shall be designed to be visually distinguishable from driving surfaces through the use of durable,low-maintenance surface materials such as pavers, bricks or scored concrete to enhance pedestrian safety and comfort. b. Other site development standards: (1) All lighting fixtures shall incorporate cut-off shields to prevent the spillover of light to adjoining properties; (2) Mechanical equipment,if located on the building, shall be located within the roof form of the building or enclosed within a screening structure, the design of which is consistent with the design of the building; (3) Mechanical equipment, not located on the building, shall be screened from views from the public street, sidewalk and properties outside the district with a durable, solid wall or fence, or an evergreen hedge or a combination of the above; (4) All refuse and recycling containers within the district shall be contained within structures enclosed on all four sides and which are at least as high as the tallest container within the structure; (5) Bicycle racks shall be provided on site.Facilities for a minimum of ten bicycles shall be provided for developments having 100 or fewer parking stalls, notwithstanding Section 18.765.050. For each 100 additional stalls, facilities for five additional bicycles shall be provided. Bicycle parking areas shall not be located within parking aisles,landscape areas or pedestrian ways. It is strongly encouraged that bicycle parking areas be covered; (6) The site development plan shall incorporate a special feature at the corner of the site.A special corner feature can be a landscape feature,seasonal color planting area,sculpture or water feature. The feature shall provide a visual landmark and some amount of seating area; (7) Parking areas shall be designed to minimize conflicts between pedestrian and vehicular movements. Parking area landscaping shall be used to define and separate parking, access and pedestrian areas within parking lots; (8) The landscape design for the site shall include plantings which emphasize the major points of pedestrian and vehicular access to and within the site; (9) Site features such as fences,walls,refuse and recycling facility enclosures,and light fixtures shall be designed to be consistent with the scale and architectural design of the primary structure(s). Such site features shall be designed and located to contribute to the pedestrian environment of the site development; (10) In multiple building complexes,buildings shall be located to facilitate safe and comfortable pedestrian movement between buildings. On sites which are adjacent to other properties within the community commercial district, building location shall be chosen to facilitate pedestrian and vehicular connections to buildings on those adjacent properties. Consideration should be given to locating buildings closer to the public street with entrances to the buildings from the public sidewalk, with no intervening parking or driving area. Corner locations are particularly appropriate for this treatment; (11) Opportunities shall be found for safe,convenient, and pleasant pedestrian connections to existing or proposed transit facilities. Where needed, shelters and layover areas for transit vehicles shall be incorporated into the site development. 9 REVISED 4/23/09 c. Sign design standards:All signage shall be an integral part of the architectural design. B.

For readability, text is not underlined. Part 2: New Chapter Chapter 18.610 Tigard Downtown District Site and Building Development and Design Standards and Review 18.610. 010. Purpose and Procedures A. Purpose The objectives of the Tigard Downtown Site and Building Design Standards are to implement the Comprehensive Plan,Tigard Downtown Improvement Plan,and Urban Renewal Plan and ensure the quality, attractiveness, and special character of the Downtown. The regulations are intended to: 1. Facilitate the development of an urban village by promoting the development of a higher density, economically viable,and aesthetically pleasing pedestrian oriented downtown where people can live, work, play and shop for their daily needs without relying on the automobile. The quality and scale of the downtown urban environment shall foster social interaction and community celebration. 2. Encourage the integration of natural features and the open space system into Downtown by promoting development sensitive to natural resource protection and enhancement; addressing the relationship to Fanno Creek Park; and promoting opportunities for the creation of public art and use of sustainable design. 3. Enhance the street level as an inviting place for pedestrians by guiding the design of the building "walls" that frame the right-of-way (the "public realm") to contribute to a safe, high quality pedestrian-oriented streetscape. Building features will be visually interesting and human scaled, such as storefront windows, detailed facades, art and landscaping. The impact of parking on the pedestrian system will also be limited. The downtown streetscape shall be developed at a human scale and closely connected to the natural environment through linkages to Fanno Creek open space and design attention to trees and landscapes. 4. Promote Tigard's Downtown as a desirable place to live and do business. Promote development of high-quality high density housing and employment opportunities in the Downtown. staff Commentary on A. 4: The fourth intention of the regulations references the Comprehensive Plan Economic Development Goal 9.1, Recommended Action Measure xii which is to, `increase opportunities for higher density housing and employment development in the Downtown Urban Renewal District, Washington Square Regional Center, Tigard Triangle, and designated Corridors to enable more intense housing and employment uses to be located in close proximity to transit and other uses." 5. Provide a clear and concise guide for developers and builders by employing greater use of graphics to explain community goals and desired urban form to applicants,residents and administrators. 15 REVISED 4/23/09 B. Conflicting standards The following standards and land use regulations apply to all development within the Downtown Mixed Use Central Business District. With the exception of public facility and street requirements, if a standard found in this section conflicts with another standard in the Development Code, the standards in this section shall govern,even if less restrictive than other areas of the code. The Design Code is intended to provide greater flexibility in the types of uses that may be allowed through the tradi- tional Zoning code. The reasons are to: • Provide a greater range of land use opportunities anywhere in the downtown. Tigard's objective is to promote redevelopment of the downtown and wishes to ensure that a wide range of compatible uses can locate anywhere within the MU-CBD district • Be more responsive to the real estate market. • Create a functional, well-designed, and economically viable Downtown district. • Establish a unified and cohesive design character • Provide options to develop a wide range of business enterprises and housing opportunities. C. Applicability: 1. New Buildings and Redevelopment: All applicable Design Standards apply to new buildings and related site improvements. 2. Expansion,modification and site improvements to existing development: An addition, expansion, enlargement,modification,and/or site improvements associated with such lawfully preexisting uses and structures shall be allowed provided the applicant for such proposed project demonstrates compliance with the applicable development code standards. Only those Downtown Building and Site Design Standards applicable to the proposed expansion, modification or site improvements to the existing development shall be applicable. 3. Design standards do not apply to the following projects: • Maintenance and repair of a building, structure,or site in a manner that is consistent with previous approvals and/or necessary for safety; • Projects undertaken to bring an existing development into compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act; • Exterior painting; • Any exterior project that doesn't require a building permit; • Interior remodeling; • Temporary structures/uses (as defined in Chapter 18.785); • Any project involving a pre-existing single family residential building or duplex (that is not being or already been converted to a non-residential use). D. Downtown Design Review Approval Process 1.To achieve the purpose of the Downtown Site and Building Design Standards, there are three methods or"tracks" to apply for approval : 16 REVISED 4/23/09 a) Track 1. Design Compliance Letter provides for a Type I review process, using the clear and objective Design Standards. It is intended for smaller building and site renovation projects,which meet the threshold of 18.610.010.E.1. b) Track 2. The Administrative Review track provides for a more complex process (Type II) that requires staff review utilizing clear /quantifiable standards. It applies to new development and renovation/remodeling projects listed in 18.610.010.E.2. c) Track 3. The Design Review Board Track provides for a Type III review process through which a Design Review Board determines compliance with the Design Objectives. After or concurrently with receiving design approval, a project will be administratively reviewed as a Type II decision for all other applicable standards (Type III if a Conditional Use) 2. Designing a project to the Design and Development Standards would result in an administrative review process. However, the applicant,at their option,may choose to use Track 3 with the Design Review Board. An applicant can address design review requirements through a combination of satisfying certain Design Standards,and in instances where they elect not to utilize Design Standards, satisfy applicable Design Objectives. In such a case, the public hearing and decision will focus on whether or not the project satisfies the requirements of the applicable Design Objectives only. StafCommentary on Section D: There are three potential approval processes or "tracks"for an application to get reviewed. Track 1 and 2 use the clear and objective Design Standards as the approval criteria. Track 3 uses the discretionary Design Objectives as the approval criteria. Specified renovation projects may use Track 1, an Administrative review. Larger renovation projects and new building construction may use Track 2, an Administrative review. The Track 3 process provides the opportunity for well-designed projects, which cannot meet the clear and objective standards for building and site design. The discretionary design objectives are written as qualitative statements. Unlike the clear and objective design standards, there are typically many acceptable way to meet each design objective. Projects would need to meet the Development Standards. The decision making authority is the Design Review Board.After Design Review Board approval or with a concurrent application, a type II review is necessary for compliance with additional chapters listed in 18.610.025.An applicant can address design review requirements through a combination of satisfying certain Design Standards, and in instances where it elects not to utili<e Design Standards, satisfy applicable Design Objectives. In such a case, the public hearing and decision will focus on whether or not the project satisfies the requirements of the applicable Design Objectives only. E. Procedures 1.

Applications that require engineering or transportation reports must be stamped by the appropriate specialist. G. Approval period. Approval by the Director or Design Review Board shall be effective for a period of 1-1/2 years from the date of approval. The approval shall lapse if: 1. Substantial construction of the approved plan has not begun within a one-and-one-half years period; or 2. Construction on the site is a departure from the approved plan. H. Extension. The Director shall,upon written request by the applicant and payment of the required fee, grant an extension of the approval period not to exceed one year;provided that: 1. No changes are made on the plan as approved by the Director or Design Review Board; 2.The applicant can show intent of initiating construction on the site within the one year extension period;and 3.There have been no changes to the applicable Comprehensive Plan policies and ordinance provisions on which the approval was based. I. Phased development. 1.The Director shall approve a time schedule for developing a site in phases over a period of time of one year, but in no case shall the total time period for all phases be greater than three years without reapplying for design review. 2.The criteria for approving a phased development proposal is that all of the following are satisfied: a.

Staff Commentary:F through K adapted from Section 18.360 Site Development Review. Currently,projects in the Tigard Triangle and Washington Square undergo Site Development Review and review with the design overlay standards, Projects in the Downtown will meet the standards of this Section (and the additional chapters listed in 18.610.025, but need not undergo Site Development Review. 18.610.015 Pre-Existing Uses and Developments within the Downtown District A. Applicability. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 18.760.040 (Criteria for Nonconforming Situations),land uses and associated development in the MU-CBD District that were lawfully in existence at the time of adoption of these standards may continue as lawful uses and developments. 1. Land uses and associated development that were in existence at the time of the adoption-of the MU-CBD district and Chapter 18.610 may continue on the property. Additions, expansions, or enlargements to such uses or developments, shall be limited to the property area of said use or development lawfully in existence at the time of adoption of this ordinance, , 2009. 2. If a pre-existing structure or use is destroyed by fire,earthquake or other act of God, or otherwise abandoned then the use will retain its pre-existing status under this provision so long as it is substantially reestablished within one (1) year of the date of the loss. B. Standards for Projects Involving Existing Single Family and Duplex Dwellings 1. Existing single family buildings and duplexes used for residential purposes are exempt from the standards. 21 REVISED 4/23/09 2. For projects involving preexisting housing units that have been converted to non-residential uses prior to the adoption of this code., the applicable standards are: 18.610.020.Building and Site Development Standards,including the applicable sub-area from Map 610,A, 18.610.030. Building Design Standards for non-Residential Buildings and 18.610.035 Additional Standards. New conversions of residential buildings to non-residential uses are prohibited in the MU-CBD district. C. Existing nonconforming industrial structures Existing nonconforming industrial structures at the following locations may continue to be utilized for I-P Industrial uses after the nonconforming use limit of six months: Map 2S 1 2AA tax lot 4700, Map 2S 1 2AC tax lot 100 and 202, Map 2S 1 2AD tax lot 1203,Map 2S 1 2DB tax lot 100, and Map 2S 1 2DA tax lot 300. Staff Commentary on Section 18.610.015: Section A is based on the Washington Square Regional Center Design Standards(Section 18.630.030). The section addresses nonconforming uses and structures in the Downtown district. It has some differences with Section 18.760, Nonconforming Situations.Additions and modifications of existing nonconforming structures are permitted As the proposed development standards would create many nonconforming developments, the proposed code requires only the addition or modification to the structure conform to the new code requirements. For example,for an application to add windows to the façade of an existing building would only have to meet the window standards (window coverage, trim, etc.)and not the other facade standards(awnings, etc.) The proposed code also permits nonconforming uses and structures to continue if destroyed, as long as it is reestablished within one year Section 18.760 permits only 6 months. Washington Sq. specifies 3 years to reestablish, but only if destroyed by fire, earthquake, or other act ofgod The proposed language would allow up to ayear to reestablish an abandoned use. The reason for the more permissive standard is to lessen the likelihood that buildings would stand empty and unused during the expected transition of downtown. Section C carries over from the existing CBD regulations, with one previously listed proper0 removed(the property where the Ballroom Dance Facility is now located) 22 REVISED 4/23/09 18.610.020 Building and Site Development Standards A. Sub-Areas: The four sub-areas located on Map 610.A and described below have different setback and height limits in order to create a feeling of distinct districts within the larger zone. 1. Highway 99W and Hall Boulevard Corridor sub-area is intended to create a"pulse-point" along the Highway 99W corridor. Located at the intersection of 99W and Hall Blvd., the area has the high traffic and visibility to draw potential retail customers from the region. It will also serve the potential for future high capacity transit in the corridor. The area will accommodate higher levels of vehicular circulation,while maintaining a pedestrian scale at the ground-floor level of buildings. It would allow development of mixed use and retail buildings that could vary in scale from one-story retail-only buildings, to mixed use buildings up to eight stories tall with retail on the ground floor and residential and/or office uses above. 2. Main St-Center St.:The sub-area is centered on the City's historic downtown Main Street. It is intended to be pedestrian oriented with smaller scale development that would function like a "traditional Main Street."A pedestrian environment would be improved with a continuous building wall broken only intermittently. New buildings in the sub-area must include ground floors with commercial storefront features. Residential and commercial uses are permitted on upper floors. 3. The Scoffins St-Commercial St. sub-area is intended to provide an opportunity for higher density residential as well as an employment base comprised of civic, office and commercial uses in the areas of Commercial Street and Scoffins. Residential only buildings,office/commercial buildings,and mixed use developments are all permitted. 4. The Fanno- Burnham St. sub-area provides an opportunity for medium scale residential or mixed use development. Compatible mixed-uses (live-work,convenience retail, office and civic uses) are encouraged on the frontage of Burnham Street. The area in proximity to Fanno Creek Park will be an opportunity to create a high quality residential environment with views and access to the natural amenity of Fanno Creek Park. Building heights will step down to three stories so as not to overwhelm or cast shadows on the park. 23 REVISED 4/23/09 Ma. 18.610.A E.s ‘ I rim ---171 ;=—/111" .e t ..P►`�U • ill.-100411, Ir1AE.`n..A �c` %--=I 10TI. elikNPi.riil iVesO•4'i•�.p i . is!ML r1� set:, =i . ■o• *� i hV \••'I1" fir' ''!1 \g ?: -. 4 i■■,4/trytha•:.. ow r,. --__ It*, of 1 IN ; 4, , ... „Alp, ., s• .4. /or III II /4, N .,k < VI ._ r .e,4tii;4* ..A.. tv # ••.

COMMUNICATIONS - None 4. CONSIDER MEETING MINUTES 4-6-09 Meeting Minutes: Vice President Walsh asked if there were any corrections, deletions, or additions to the minutes. There were none. As discussed at the last meeting, according to Section 12 of the Planning Commission bylaws,Walsh declared the minutes approved as submitted. 5. WORKSHOPS 5.1 Downtown Land Use and Design Standards Senior Planner, Sean Farrelly, introduced two consultants who'd worked on the project - Cathy Corliss from Angelo Planning Group, and Marcy Mclnelly, principal of SERA Architects. He also introduced Matthew Crall, who was sitting in the audience, from the State of Oregon,TGM Code Assistance Grant. Farrelly said the City of Tigard had been awarded a Code Assistance grant from the state of Oregon's Transportation and Growth Management (TGM) Program. He noted this was an informational session on the draft code and an early opportunity to raise questions, prior to the more formal workshops that will lead into public hearings later this summer. He gave a brief history of the proposed Downtown Code Amendments and he and the two consultants went through a PowerPoint PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES—May 4,2009—Page 1 of 3 (Exhibit A) which included the consultant's assessment of the code, as well as an explanation of the overall approach of the code and some specific provisions. He noted the draft code copy that the commissioner's received in their packets was for reference. The language may be revised during upcoming sessions with the CCAC (City Center Advisory Commission). He said staff will provide a more user friendly version of the code with expanded commentary and explanation of how the new code compares to existing code language. Cathy Corliss explained that Angelo Planning Group is one of two firms in the state that have the lead contract for code assistance so when Tigard requested assistance, they were selected to work on the project. She said they had sub-consultants, including Sara Architects. She said Marcy McInelly, and her expertise in form-based code, was brought to bear on the projects. She said they were able to put together a team to assist the city as part of the Code Assistance Program. She said the scope of work basically covered peer review of the draft code that the City had prepared, code illustrations, and development examples. Marcy came up and spoke on form-based code. Farrelly finished the presentation and took questions from the commissioners. QUESTIONS BY COMMISSIONERS Can you talk about the fee and rule of process and how that works? For the Downtown there's a requirement that 10% of the site be dedicated to shared open space. Right now in the Development Code the requirements are 200 sq ft per unit basically. 10% is a little denser, a more urban feel. 10% doesn't really get you a lot of usable open space. We haven't worked out how much the fee will be. To allow flexibility to the code and to provide more usable shared open space instead of little tiny pockets of shared open space, we'd rather concentrate it in larger, public parks, plazas... Was there any kind of water feature architecture? That's a possibility for the developer to provide something for the public benefit. We'll take a look at that. We can raise that at the City Center Advisory Commission meeting and see if there's an interest in incorporating that. Has the development community looked at this? Consultants looked at it— kind of a reality check to let us know what's feasible. At the open house we'll invite developers and will also try to get a focus group. There was a question about mixed use residential and businesses —would that be considered? Yes —that's what we want—commercial vertical mixed use. Vice President Walsh said he enjoyed seeing the comparisons of form based code and would like to see more comparisons. PI.:INNING COMMISSION MEIUING MINUTES—May 4,2009—Page 2 of 3 There was some talk about Streetscape and the look of Downtown so far as the types of businesses located there— such as a Powell's bookstore. Farrelly explained that it would be left pretty open. He agreed that a Powell's would be a tremendous boost to the Downtown. He said the footprint they would need is allowed under this code. One of the commissioners noted that the consumer is requesting that there's more green building in what they buy. She said it's not necessarily developer driven;it's going to be developer driven because the consumer is going to require it. 5.2 Low Impact Development Presentation Todd Prager, the City Arborist, introduced Brian Wegener of the Tualatin Riverkeepers. Mr. Wegener gave a PowerPoint presentation (Exhibit B) about urban storm water and low impact development. It was presented for informational purposes to the Commission. He said this presentation came out of the planning for the "Connect the Drops" storm water summit held in October and presents a progress report on restoring natural hydrology to our urban streams through Low Impact Development. He distributed a pamphlet entitled "Connect the Drops" from that summit. He reviewed problems caused by urban storm water runoff and possible solutions. 6. OTHER BUSINESS - None 7.
