Street Gateway art project. It was noted that the TDA is exploring the possibility of using a part
time person to help with items such as marketing. The TDA meeting recaps are being provided to
merchants and a change in meeting time may be made so that more business owners could
personally attend. Moving public works out of the Burnham Street location will involve costs to the

AGENDA ITEM #5: CCAC 2014 Goals Update (Attachments 1—2)
Sean distributed an updated quarterly goals summary. Tom met with the PRAB to discuss goal 1A
and noted the research Lynn did on other memorial walls was beneficial. He stated that future
ODOT grant applications might benefit by following the example of Tualatin to propose matching
funds for projects. Goals 1B and 1C remain the same. Sean noted that goal 2A includes the Ash /
Burnham housing project and the adopted VHDZ. Deanie noted that six applications were received
for goal 2C with total available funds of$35,000. The two projects chosen are 1) the area in front of
Maki and Tigard Wine Crafters, and Elvia's Salon and 2) a landscaping project at Tigard
Chiropractors. Carine provided an update on goals 3A—3D and noted CCAC website suggestions
should be forwarded to Sean. Branding will be addressed at a future meeting. Sean stated the yearly
report to the CCDA is due December 1,2014.
AGENDA ITEM #6: Goal 211: Recommendations for Incentive Matrix (Attachments 3—4)
Laura expanded on the Policy Tools and Incentives matrix included with the agenda. After
discussing each along with the pros, cons and criteria,it was decided to allow Carine and Laura to
prioritize two to four of the items for discussion at a future meeting.
AGENDA ITEM #7: Gateway Art Update
Sean updated the CCAC on the progress of the Gateway art project. ODOT gave approval for the
project. The southern gateway is likely to be completed before the northern gateway. An update to
the scheduling will be available in a couple weeks. The lighting for the art will have the capability of
changing color, but will probably be one color.
AGENDA ITEM #8: Oregon Main Street Conference
Sean encouraged CCAC to attend this conference being held in McMinnville. There is no cost but
registration is required. Tom noted the TDA might organize a van for attendees.
AGENDA ITEM #9: Liaison Reports
Tom and Sean attended a PRAB meeting to discuss working together on the Tigard Street trail and
the mini plaza. DRAB is very receptive to the idea. Tom also talked to the Chairman Steve Bass at
the August TTAC meeting. TTAC official participation is uncertain, but Steve indicated an interest
in personally participating.
At the beginning of the PRAB meeting was a presentation about building a YMCA in downtown
Tigard. There was also concern regarding the dog park relocation.
