"Single Family Residential" , zone
Location: S.W. 103rd and View Terrace (Wash. Co. Tax Map 2S1 11BC ,
Tax Lot 3000)
Applicant: Douglas E. Johnson
I. Findings of Fact:
1. The applicant is requesting preliminary plat approval in
accordance with Section 17.16.100 of the Tigard Municipal
Code to subdivide a 3. 89 acre parcel into ten lots with a
minimum lot size of 7,500 square feet at S.W. 103rd and
View Terrace Streets.
2. The site is designated Urban Low Density Residential on
the Tigard Community Plan, 1971, (and NPO 6 Draft Plan)
and zoned R-7, Single Family Residential.
3. Preliminary plat approval was applied for and granted for
a 12 lot subdivision on this same parcel on two occasions--
in 1967 and 1973. In 1973, the Tigard Planning Commission
approved the preliminary plat for Douglas Heights Subdivi-
sion subject to the following conditions:
(1) That engineering plans and specifications shall be
approved prior to acceptance of the final plat.
(2) That the right-of-way of S.W. View Terrace be 50 feet
with 34 feet of pavement width and a cul-de-sac of 53
feet radius and 45 feet pavement with curbs and side-
walks.
(3) That sidewalks shall be 4 feet wide, located next to
the curbs, and shall meander around clustered mail-

(5) That the property owner (s) will support the formation
of a local improvement district now or in the future
to bring S.W. 103rd Avenue up to city street stand-
ards and that the present property owner (s) execute a
recordable covenant in accordance herewith.
4. Section 17.20.010, Submission to City Engineer, of the Ti-
gard Municipal Code states that:
Within twelve months after tentative approval of
the preliminary plat, the subdivider shall cause
the subdivision or any part thereof to be sur-
veyed and a final plat prepared in conformance
with the preliminary plat as tentatively approved.
5. Applicable policies from the Tigard Community Plan, 1971,
are as follows:
a. The maximum overall density of development will be four
dwelling units or 12 persons per gross acre. This
amounts to a standard of 7,500 square feet of land per
dwelling unit, allowing for streets and other open
. space. Some areas will have a lower density owing to
topography, existing development patterns or the de-
sire of individuals to own a larger lot.
b. Residential subdivision will be developed with paved
streets, curbs and gutters, street lights, and walk-
ways, according to city or county standards. All util-
ities will be placed underground.
c. Development will coincide with the provision of public
streets, water, and sewerage facilities. These facili-
ties shall be (a) capable of adequately serving all in-
tervening properties as well as the proposed develop-
ment and (b) designed to meet city or county standards.
6. Section 17.16 .100 states that:
No tentative plan for a proposed subdivision and no tenta-
tive plan for a major partition shall be approved unless:
a. Streets and roads are laid out so as to conform to the
plats or subdivision or maps of major partitions al-
ready approved for adjoining property as to width, gen-
eral direction, and in all other respects, unless the 1
ma

City determines it to be in the public interest to
modify the street or road pattern.
b. Streets and roads held for private use are clearly in-
dicated on the tentative plan,, and all reservations or
restrictions relating to such private roads and streets
are set forth thereon.
c. The tentative plan complies with the Comprehensive Plan
and applicable zoning regulations of the City then in
effect.
}
d. No tentative plan of a subdivision or map of a major
partition shall be approved unless there will exist
adequate sewage disposal system to support the pro--
posed use of the land described in the proposed plat..
7. The site is relatively flat, with the exception of the
northwesterlymost portion of the parcel, which drops off
sharply along the rear portions of Lots 6, 7, and 8. Tax
Lots 2900 and 3001, which are located along the west prop-
erty of the plat, have been excluded as part of the appli-
cant' s resubmitted preliminary plat. Both these parcels
were partitioned out of the larger parcel (Tax Lot 3000)
' and are currently occupied by single .family
in the 1960 s currently P x ,
homes. The remaining portion of the site is surrounded by
undeveloped parcels to the north and south and single fam-
ily homes to the east and across S.W. 103rd Avenue.
8. The applicant is proposing to deed to Tax Lots 2900 and
3001 the westernmost portion of Tax Lot 3000, which is an
approximately 50 by 100 foot wide area identified on the
preliminary plat as Tracts "A" and "B"
dedi-
cation 9 . To facilitate the construction of the cul-de-sac, a
cation of right-of-way for street purposes would be neces-
sary in the northeast corner, of Tax Lot 2900 and the
southeast corner of Tax Lot 3001.
Y
to
10. Sanitary sewer service would have to be extended approxi-
mately 600 feet south. up 103rd from the existing eight
inch line in 103rd Avenue. Water service is available to
the site via six inch and 12 inch lines in 103rd serviced
by the Tigard Water District.

11. S.W. 103rd is designated as a local street on the Tigard
Community Plan, 1971 (and the NPO 6 Draft Plan) , requiring
50 feet of right-of-way; there currently is 45 feet.
Therefore, an additional five feet will be necessary. S.W.
103rd is also in substandard condition (e.g. , no curbs,
sidewalks, etc. ) .
12. No indication has been given as to how storm water run-off
is to be handled. State law requires that:
Rain, storm, and other surface run-off water drained from
roofs, paved areas, courts or courtyards shall not be con-
veyed and discharged to the storm sewers or to the street
gutters in a manner which may cause flooding to adjacent
property, streets, alleys or walkways.
13. Condition 3 of the 1973 preliminary plat approval by the
Planning Commission allowed for sidewalks to be four feet
wide, meander around mailboxes, and be built adjacent the
curb. The applicant has given no indication as to whether
or not he would be proposing the same deviation from the
street standards for the new plat.
14. Section 17.44.040, Sidewalks, of the Tigard Municipal Code
states that "concrete sidewalks shall be installed along
both sides of each street. . .not less than five feet wide
. . .and constructed adjacent the property line" .
15. The applicant has not indicated the name of the proposed
street within the subdivision. Section 17.16 .070 of the
Tigard Municipal Code requires that the names of all
streets be included on the preliminary plat.
II . Conclusionary Findings:
1. The proposed preliminary plat conforms to the Tigard Commu-
nity Plan, 1971, in that the proposed lotting pattern is
for residential purposes and conforms to the dimensional
requirements of the Zoning Code.
2. With the attachment of appropriate conditions, access will
be available to all lots, and each lot as proposed will
abut a public street.
3. Sanitary sewer will have to be extended approximately 600
feet to the site from an eight inch line in 103rd. Water

lines are available to the site to facilitate the proposed
density.
4. To facilitate the construction of the cul-de-sac, dedica-
tion of right-of-way in the southeast and northeast corners
of Lots 2900 and 3001, respectively, will be necessary.
Since these two lots are not included within the plat, per-
mission from the owners of these properties will have to be
obtained before the cul-de-sac can be built as p roposed.

2900 and 3001 will be necessary to assure these properties
have access to the newly created street.
III. Final action:
Based on findings of fact and conclusionary findings, the pre-
liminary plat for "Douglas Heights" subdivision is hereby ap-
proved subject to the following conditions:
1. That a half street improvement to local standards be made
on S .W. 103rd Avenue to include a sidewalk, street lights,
and street trees. No building permits will he issued until
construction drawings have been approved by the public
works department and the necessary bond filed.
2. That a storm water plan be submitted for public works de-
par' ment approval which meets standards established by
Washington County.
3. That easements be provided according to public works de-
partment specifications for drainage and utility purposes.
4. That street trees in accordance with the Design Review
Board approved list be placed along S.W. 103rd Avenue and
the newly created street within the subdivision.
5. That permits be obtained from Washington County for any
street, sewer or storm work in S.W. 103rd Avenue.
6 . That fire hydrants be placed as per Tigard Water District
and City of Tigard regulations.
7. That the necessary right-of-way to accommodate the cul-de-
sac be acquired from Tax Lots 2900 and 30.01 or the cul-de-
sac be moved easterly to avoid having to obtain this
right-of-way.

Docket: Subdivision S 17-77
Request: To create a six lot subdivision on a 1.90 acre parcel in a
R-7 zone, "Single Family Residential"
Location: S.W. 98th and Durham Road
Applicant: James and Irene McCoy
I. Findings of Fact:
1. The applicant is requesting preliminary plat approval in
accordance with Section 17. 16.100 of the Tigard Municipal
Code to subdivide a 1.90 acre parcel into six lots with a
minimum lot size of 10,000 square feet at S.W. 98th Ave-
nue (west side) just north of Durham Road.
2 . On August 22, 1977, the Tigard City Council adopted Ordi-
nance 77-81 (Zone Change 15-77) which requires the adja-
cent property owners to the west (Woody Hughes and Kermit
Carlile) to improve the street onto S.W. 98th Avenue to a
24 foot width with curbs, storm drainage, and sidewalk on
one side, if the right-of-way becomes available before the
subdivision (Kerwood Estates) is completed and streets and
improvements are accepted by the City of Tigard.
3. The site is designated ''Urban Low Density Residential" on
the Tigard Community Plan, 1971, and zoned R-7. Attached
as conditions to the application of City zoning (October
24, 1977) were the following:
(1) That the necessary right-of-way be provided to accom-
modate the extension of a street from the Kerwood
Estates subdivision onto S.W. 98th Avenue. This
would require a minimum right-of-way of 50 feet along
the west property line, tapering to 40 feet out to
S.W. 98th Avenue.
(2) That five feet dedication of right-of-way be provided
along the S.W. 98th Avenue frontage.

o A half street improvement to collector street standards
be made on the S.W. 98th Avenue frontage, to include a
sidewalk, street lights, and street trees.
5. Applicable policies from the Tigard Community Plan, 1971,
are as follows:
i
a. The maximum overall density of development will be
four dwelling units or 12 persons per gross acre.
This amounts to a standard of 7,500 square feet of
land per dwelling unit, allowing for streets and other
open space. Some areas will have a lower density ow-
, ing to topography, existing development patterns or
the desire of individuals to own a larger lot. 1

c. The tentative plan complies with the Comprehensive
Plan and applicable zoning regulations of the City zi
then in effect.
d. No tentative plan of a subdivision or map of a ma-
jor partition shall be approved unless there will
exist adequate sewage disposal system to support
the proposed use of the land described in the pro-
posed plat.
II. Staff Observations:
1. The site is relatively flat. A single family home is lo-
cated in the southern portion of the lot, and a nut or-
chard is located in the northern end of the parcel. Sur-
rounding land uses are the Summerfield golf course to the
north, the Church of God and Church of Christ to the east
and across S.W. 98th Avenue, a house to the south, and the
"Kerwood Estates" subdivision to the west.
2. Sanitary sewer is available to the site via an eight inch
line in S.W. Kimberly Drive to the west or via the exten-
sion of a ten inch line from S .W. 98th and Durham Road or
from an eight inch line in Brentwood Drive (Summerfield
P.D. ) to the east. Water service is available to the site
from a 12 inch Tigard Water District line in S.W. 98th
Avenue. However, the water district will be requiring
that the six inch line in Kerwood Estates, stubbed out to
the east property line of the development, be extended
through the McCoy property onto S.W. 98th Avenue, where it
would tee with the existing 12 inch line in S.W. 98th.
3. No indication has been given as to how storm water run-off
is to be handled. State law requires that:
Rain, storm, and other surface run-off water
drained from roofs, paved areas, courts or court-
yards shall not be conveyed and discharged to the
storm sewers or to the street gutters in a manner
which may cause flooding to adjacent property,
streets, alleys or walkways.
4 . All six lots within the proposed plat will have frontage
on S.W. 98th Avenue. The applicant has not indicated
where driveways will be provided to these lots. With the
lotting pattern as proposed, access for Lots 1, 4, 5, and
•
ail
`i

6 would apparently have to be from S.W. 98th Avenue, which
is designated as a collector street. Access for Lots 2 and ?'
3 could be provided from the extension of Kimberly Drive
onto S.W. 98th Avenue .
III. Conclusionary Findings:
1. The proposed preliminary plat conforms to the Tigard Com-
munity Plan, 1971, in that the proposed lotting pattern is
for residential purposes, conforms to the dimensional re-
quirements of Title 18 of the Tigard Municipal Code (zon-
ing) .
2. With the attachment of appropriate conditions, access
will be available to all lots, and each lot as proposed
will abut a public street.
3. Adequate sanitary sewer and water lines are available to
the site to facilitate the proposed density.
4. S.W. 98th is a collector street. The primary purpose of a
collector street is to collect and distribute traffic be-
tween arterial and local streets or directly to traffic
r destinations. Therefore, the provision for joint access
drives to serve all six lots within the subdivision should
•
be provided to facilitate the safe and efficient flow of
traffic along S.W. 98th Avenue.
:.
IV Final Action
The preliminary plat for. the "McCoy Estates" subdivision is
hereby approved subject to the following conditions:
1. That a half street improvement to collector standards be
made on S.W. 98th Avenue to include a sidewalk, street
lights, and street trees. No building permits will be is-
sued until construction drawings have been approved by the
public works department and the necessary bond filed.
2. That a storm water plan be submitted for public works de-
partment approval which meets standards established by
Washington County. ? I,
3. That easements be provided according to public works de-
partment specifications for drainage and utility purposes.

NPO 5 Plan, with 60 foot right-of-way. There currently ex-
ists the necessary right-of-way for this street; however,
72nd Avenue is in substandard condition (e.g. , lacking curbs
and sidewalks) .
III. Conclusionary Findings:
1. The proposed partitioning conforms to the requirements of
the Tigard Municipal Code in that each lot will abut a pub-
lic street and will be greater than 6,000 square feet and
have a minimum lot width of 60 feet.
2. S.W. 72nd Avenue is in substandard condition (e.g. , lacking
curbs, sidewalks, lights, etc. ) .
IV. Final Action:
Based on findings of fact and conclusionary findings, the pro-
posed minor land partitioning is hereby approved with the fol-
lowing condition:
1. An agreement to participate in a local improvement district
for the improvement of S.W. 72nd Avenue to City collector
street standards be filed with the City recorder.

Docket: Minor Land Partition MLP 10-77
Request: To partition a 2 . 55 acre parcel into .24 and 2. 31 acre
parcels in a "R-7, Single Family Residential" zone
Location: 14070 S.W. Hall Boulevard (Wash. Co. Tax Map 2S1 12B,
Lot 1000)
Applicant: Raymond L. Young
I. Findings of Fact:
1. The applicant is requesting permission, in accordance with
Section 17.24 .030 of the Tigard. Municipal Code, to divide
a 2.55 acre parcel into .24 and 2 .31 acre parcels in a R-7
zone on the east side of Hall Boulevard (14070 S .W. Hall
Boulevard) .
2 . The site and surrounding area on the east side of the
planned spine road (NPO #5) are designated for eight dwel-
ling units per acre and six dwelling units per acre on the
west side. S.W. Hall Boulevard is designated an arterial
street requiring 90 foot minimum right-of-way.
3. The minimum lot size requirements for this area with the
underlying zone of R-7 are the following:
o 7,500 square foot minimum lot size (Section 18 .20.030
(1) of the Tigard Municipal Code) unless submission is
for a planned development
o 15 foot minimum rear yard setback (18.20 .060 (4)
o Five foot side yard setback for one story building (18.-
20.060 (2)
4. Section 17. 36.020 of the Tigard Municipal Code requires
that each lot abut a public street so each lot will have
public access.
II. Staff Observations:
1. The site is generally flat in the western portion of the
lot, sloping toward Fanno Creek in the
P r eastern end of the

parcel, and is presently occupied by a single family resi-
dence and accessory building fronting on Hall Boulevard.
The remainder of the site is covered with a thick stand of
evergreens. The northeasterly-most portion of the site is
in the 100 year flood plain.
2 . Water service is available from a six inch line in Hall
Boulevard.
3. Sewer service is available from a 60 inch interceptor line
in the rear portion of the site.
4. A problem arises from the fact that the submitted land par-
tition makes no mention of the existing house 's septic tank
and drain field system. It is doubtful that this system can
operate effectively on the 10 ,283 square foot lot being
created for the house. Of even greater concern is whether
any part of the system will be on the adjacent owner's prop-
erty following partitioning.
z° 5. The applicant's site plan envisions the creation of an ap-
proximately 10,283 square foot lot to be located in the north-
westerly portion of what is now Tax Lot 1000. The existing
single family residence and accessory building will be re-
tained on this site.
6 . A 30 foot wide access from Hall Boulevard has been provided
for the new lot (2. 31 acres) which is behind and to the east
of the lot on which the single family residence is located.
III. Conclusionary Findings:
1. The proposed partitioning conforms to the requirements of
the Tigard Municipal Code in that each lot will abut a pub-
lic street and the proposed lots will exceed the minimum
lot size of 7,500 square feet.
2. Until the proposed spine road is completed to the west to
intersect with Hall Boulevard, the 30 foot wide portion of
the eastern parcel which fronts on Hall Boulevard should
serve only as a temporary access point.
3. The area needed for the septic system for the house must be
determined and remedial action taken to guarantee its pres-
ervation until sanitary sewer service can be provided.

5. Section 18.64 .020 (b) of the Tigard Municipal Code requires
a 40 foot minimum access with a 32 foot driveway for 20 to
49 units .
II. Staff Observations:
1. The front portion of the site along Greenburg Road is rela-
tively flat, sloping down and away towards the rear of the
lots. On Tax Lot 900. there is a single family home and a
grove of trees to the rear of the lot. There is also a
single family home on Tax Lot 1000. A stand of trees ex-
ists along the southeast side of the lot. Both homes are
located toward the front of the lots along Greenburg Road,
and both units are presently on a septic tank system. To
the north and to the east across S.W. Greenburg Road are
apartments. The site abuts the Burlington Northern and
Southern Railroad lines to the west, and to the south are
the Costello Sorrento apartments.
2 . The applicant is proposing to partition the front portions
a:
of Tax Lots 900 and 1000 into single family lots and devel-
oping the remaining parcel for multiple family units (12
CI-
units per acre) .
3. Water is available to the site by means of a six inch water
line running along the southwest side of Greenburg Road.
Sewerage service is available from an eight inch main line
in S.W. Greenburg Road and is of adequate capacity to fa-
cilitate the proposed density.
4 . The Tigard Community Plan and NPO #2 Plan standards for a
collector street are a minimum of 60 feet of right-of-way
width. That portion of S .W. Greenburg Road which abuts
the subject parcels has a present right-of-way width of 60
feet.
5. Each lot conforms to 7,000 square foot minimum lot size of
the A-2 zone.
6 . The single family home located on Tax Lot 1000 is currently
serving as a rental unit. Access to the site is provided
via a driveway approach. from Greenburg Road. The driveway
and garage for this home are situated in the north corner
of the parcel. The applicant site plan envisions access
for the new parcel to the rear of Tax Lots 900 and 1000 to

run parallel and in between these two lots. To avoid the
creation of an additional access onto Greenburg Road, a
shared access between Tax Lot 1000 and the "new lot" should
be provided. To accommodate a joint driveway use, a por-
tion of the hedge on the north side of Tax Lot 1000 (see

II . Staff Observation: ;?:
A. Site Conditions: f.'
The site is a vacant , easterly sloping site of 12 to 25 ='
percent, creating considerable development constraints.
The site is also transversed by a small creek along the `s
eastern edge of the site.
B. Situation :
The site is surrounded by single family residences, with a
recently approved 96 lot subdivision on a heavily wooded
parcel to the north, ;'
The creek portion of the site is shown to be included in
the greenway system, as depicted on NP III . This can be
realized by a 25 foot easement from the center line of the
creek and the construction of a standard bicycle/pedestrian
or
path along its entirety.

C. Public Facilities : v`
1.sx
S.W. Fairhaven Street (west) is fully improved to City f hi
standards. The applicant is proposing to add a 36 foot
radius cul-de-sac at its present terminus . This creates a
550 foot cul-de-sac, which is prohibited by the Subdivi 4'!
sion Code , but its extension is also prohibited by the NP
III . In light of this conflict and considering the topo-
graphical constraints of the site, the cul-de-sac proposal
is warranted. With the minimal right-of-way, easements will ` '.
be required for sidewalks.
A six inch water line crosses the property in an east-west
direction and is adequate to service the property, 1
A sewer main line exists along the creek, through the site
of adequate capacity to serve the proposed development.
The adjacent parcels to the west are on septic tanks, which
are having difficulty functioning properly. A 15 foot
' easement between Lots 1 and 2 will provide sewer accessi- ;

III . Conclusionary Findings :
1. With the attachment of conditions the proposed preliminary
plat conforms to the NP III in that it is in keeping with
the character of the surrounding area and at a lower den-
sity than adjacent subdivisions.
2. The proposed density conforms to the density limitations
of the underlying R-10 zone.
3. As noted in the staff observations, adequate water, sewer,
street, and recreation facilities are available to service
the proposed subdivision.
IV, Final Action:
The proposed preliminary plat is hereby approved in accordance
with Section 17. 16. 100 of the Tigard Municipal Code subject to
the following conditions :
1. Ten foot lot line utility easements be provided so as to
k..,. allow sewer connection by those residences to the west.
2. An eight foot wide asphaltic-concrete pedestrian-bicycle
path be constructed from the north to the south plat bound-
ary along the following route: Beginning at the north plat
boundary the path will join up with the Genesis subdivision
path on a 30 foot wide easement and extend south to the
boundary between Lots 1 and 2; at this point it will curve
westward along a 15 foot easement between lots 1 and 2 and
connect with the cul-de-sac bulb on Fairhaven Street ; from
this point the path will extend south on the 30 foot access
easement to Lots 2, 3, 4, and 5 and use the same paved sur-

Docket : Subdivision S 16-77
Request : To create a 13 lot subdivision on 2 .75 acre parcel in a
R-7 zone, "Single Family Residential"
Location : North side of S.W. North Dakota Street (Wash. Co. Tax Map
1S1 34D, Tax Lot 400)
Applicant : Steven Spiegel
I . Findings of Fact :
1. The applicant is requesting preliminary plat approval in
accordance with Section 17. 16 .100 of the Tigard Municipal
Code to subdivide a 2. 75 acre parcel into 13 lots, with a
minimum lot size of 7, 500 square feet in a R-7 zone on the
north side of S.W. North Dakota Street .
2. The site is designated "Urban Low Density Residential" on
the Tigard Community Plan, 1971 and zoned R-7. Attached
as conditions to the application of the City zoning (July
25, 1977) was the following;
(1) An agreement to participate in a local improvement
district for the improvement of S.W. North Dakota
Street be signed by the property owner, be recorded,
and transferred to all deeds for all new lots as they
are sold.
(2) Ten feet be dedicated along this property for street
improvements to S.W. North Dakota Street .
(3) Sidewalk be allowed to meander or abut the curb in
order to save trees on the site.
4 No construction or fill in the flood plain .

3. Applicable policies from the Tigard Community Plan, 1971
are as follows:
a. The maximum overall density of development will be
12
four dwelling is ox 1 persons per gross acre.
This amounts to a standard of 7,500 square feet of
land per dwelling unit allowing for streets and other
open space. Some areas will have a lower density

owing to topography, existing development patterns or
the desire of individuals to own a larger lot .
b. Residential subdivision will be developed with paved
streets, curbs and gutters, street lights, and walk-
ways, according to City or County standards. All
utilities will be placed underground.
c. Development will coincide with the provision of pub-
lic streets, water, and sewerage facilities. These
facilities shall be (a) capable of adequately serving
all intervening properties as well as the proposed de-
velopment and (b) designed to meet City or County
standards.
4. Section 17. 16 . 100 states that :
"No tentative plan for a proposed subdivision and no ten-
tative plan for a major partition shall be approved un-
less:
a. Streets and roads are laid out so as to conform to the
' plats of subdivision or maps of major partitions al-
,
ready approved for adjoining property as to width,
general direction, and in all other respects, unless
the City determines it to be in the public interest to
modify the street or road pattern .
b. Streets and roads held for private use are clearly in-
dicated on the tentative plan, and all reservations or
restrictions relating to such private roads and streets
are set forth thereon.
c. The tentative plan complies with the comprehensive plan
and applicable zoning regulations of the City then in
effect .
d. No tentative plan of a subdivision or map of a major
partition shall be approved unless there will exist
adequate sewage disposal system to support the pro-
posed use of the land described in the proposed plat . "
II . Staff Observations:
1. The site is a vacant parcel with no development constraints
other than a part of the Fanne Creek flood plain, (164 feet

mean sea level) , which intrudes into the parcel on the
east side of the street . The site is surrounded by. gen-
erally undeveloped property and large lots with. single
family dwellings. The general character of the area is
rural, undergoing change to urban with the introduction
of the Englewood and Black Bull subdivisions. Water and
sewerage service is available from the recently approved
Black Bull subdivision to the north .
2. Access to the site is available from S.W. North. Dakota,
which is substandard in right-of--way and improvement width..
In order to bring the existing right-of-way to meet the
plan standards, a ten foot dedication along this property
was required as part of the zone change application.
3. Tax Lot 402, located adjacent the southwest corner of the
subject parcel, has not been included within the plat
boundaries. Based on the applicant ' s plat submission,
the accessory building (garage) on Tax Lot 402 encroaches
into the plat boundaries. This encroachment , therefore ,
would necessitate the removal of that portion of the
structure on the applicant ' s property.
4. On June 30, 1977 the Unified Sewerage Agency dedicated
to the public, as a public right-of-way, Tax Lot 401.
The dedicated right-of-way is a 60 foot wide strip, more
th a n sufficient to meet the local street standard. of
50 foot right-of-way as required by the code. Tax Lot
401 bisected the applicant ' s parcel and previously served
as a private access drive for the Metzger Sanitary Sewer
Plant , located to the north of the subject parcel . Oper-
ation of the sewer plant has been discontinued, and the
plant is to be dismantled at a future date . The existing
surface pavement and curbing of this former driveway would
require improvements such as : grass between curb and black-
top killed and joint sealed, storm line flushed and T.V. 'ed,
and a core sample of asphalt surface be made .
5. The existing utilities between the curb and property line
on both sides of the recently dedicated right-of-way would
necessitate the placement of a five foot sidewalk adjacent
the property line wherever possible in order to avoid the
possibility of having to remove portions of the sidewalk
and curb to repair or alter the underground utilities.
Page 4
6. A steep embankment between the property line and the curb
on those lots in the northwest corner of the plat makes it
a undesirable to construct a driveway curb cut, or sidewalk .
The bank should be graded off or else sidewalk and driveway
aprons would be impractical to build.
7. The recently approved Black Bull subdivision immediately
north of the proposed plat was required as a condition of
approval for a zone changed, "to improve the street pro-
viding
access from S.W. North Dakota Street to the site
(Black Bull) be brought up to City standards. " The ap-
plicant has agreed with the developers of the Black Bull
subdivision to provide street lights and sidewalks in front
of his property in exchange for their bringing sanitary
sewer services to the applicant ' s property. This agree-
ment will relieve a portion of the Black Bull requirement,
but they will still be responsible for providing a con-
tinuation of the street starting at the applicant 's north
property line and up to the entrance of the Black Bull
subdivision. Therefore, the connecting street improvements
between the applicant 's subdivision must be compatible with
the access/egress improvements with the Black Bull sub-
division.
8. The Public Works Department has advised staff that there
may exist a possible drainage problem in the northeast
corner of the plat , in that the storm sewer line from the
roadway outfalls in the back portion of Lot 8 and then
"surface flows" easterly across other private land to the
east .
State law requires that :
"Rain, storm and other surface run-off water drained
from roofs, paved areas, courts or courtyards shall
not be conveyed and discharged to the storm sewers or
to the street gutters in a mariner which may cause
flooding to adjacent property, streets, alleys or
or walkways . . . "
III . Conclusionary Findings:
1 . The proposed preliminary plat conforms to the Tigard Com-
munity Plan, 1971 in that the proposed lotting pattern is
for residential purposes, conforms to the dimensional re-
quirements of Title 18 of the Tigard Municipal Code (Zon-
ing) .
2 . With the attachment of appropriate conditions, access will
be available to all lots , and each lot as proposed will abut
a public street .
3. S .W. North Dakota Street is a substandard street, and im-
provements are needed to bring it up to City standards.
Page 5
STAFF REPORT
4 . Both sanitary sewer and water lines are available to the
site to facilitate the proposed density.
IV. FINAL ACTION:
The preliminary plat for the "Northern Pine" subdivision is
hereby approved subject to the following conditions:
1 . Easement be provided according to Public Works Department
specification for drainage and utility purposes.
2. A half-street improvement to collector standards be made
on S.W. North Dakota Street frontage. No building permits
will be used until construction drawings have been ap-
proved by the Public Works Department and the necessary
bond filed.
3. A storm water drainage plan be submitted for Public Works
Department approval .
4 . That portion of the structure on Tax Lot 402 which en-
croaches into Lot 6 be removed.
5 . Fire hydrants be placed as per Tigard Water District and
City of Tigard regulations.
6. Street trees in accordance with the Design Review Board
approved list be placed along the street in the develop-
me n t.
7. The alignment of the street be compatible with the access/
egress improvements adjacent the north property line.
8. Permits be obtained from Washington County for any street ,
sewer or storm sewer work on S.W. North Dakota Street.

the City determines it to be in the public interest
to modify the street or road pattern .
b . Streets and roads held for private use are clearly in-
dicated on the tentative plan, and all reservations
or restrictions relating to such private roads and
streets are set forth thereon.
c. The tentative plan complies with the comprehensive
plan and applicable zoning regulations of the City
then in effect .
d. No tentative plan of a subdivision or map of a major
partition shall be approved unless there will exist
adequate sewage disposal system to support the pro-
posed use of the land described in the proposed plat ."
II . STAFF OBSERVATIONS :
1. The site is flat with houses along the western edge. The
parcel is essentially a vacant piece of farm land, with
very little vegetation other than grass and a few trees
around the houses. No development constraints are ap-
parent .
2 . The site is surrounded by farm land on the north, Tigard
High School on the south side of S .W. Durham Road, Summer-
field Planned Development to the west , and a vacant par-
eel to the east . The undeveloped parcel to the east is
proposed on the Tigard Community Plan, 1971 to develop as
a community shopping center. The general character of
the area is rural, undergoing transition to urban uses.
3. S.W. Durham Road lacks the right-of-way called for in the
Tigard Community Plan, 1971 and is in a substandard con
3,
dition. Washington County Public Works Department has
developed a design for the improvement of S .W. Durham r;
Road which calls for a 90 foot right-of-way. Therefore,
right-of-way necessary to provide for 45 feet from center
line should be dedicated.

4 . Sewerage service is available from a ten inch main line in
S .W. Durham Road and is of adequate capacity to facilitate
the proposed density. Water service is available up to the
site. However, this parcel is not within the Tigard Water
District at this time. A petition to annex this parcel and
adjacent parcels to the east into the Tigard Water District
will be considered before the Portland Metropolitan Area Lo-
cal Government Boundary Commission on August 24, 1977.
5. Lots 7, 16, 70, and 71 are being proposed as flag lots .
Street frontage for these lots varies between ten and 20
feet of width. The Tigard Municipal Code Section 18 .64 .040
requires that (a) no curb cuts shall be allowed within five
feet of an adjacent property line except when two adjacent
property owners elect to provide joint access to their re-
spective properties and (b) the minimum curb cut width shall
be 15 feet (measured from top of curb to top of curb) .
6. No indication has been given as to how storm water run-off
is to be handled. State law requires that :
"Rain, storm, and other surface run-off water drained from
roofs, paved areas, courts or courtyards shall not be con-
veyed and discharged to the storm sewers or to the street
gutters in a manner which may cause flooding to adjacent
property, streets, alleys or walkways . . . "
7. An existing older home located on portions of Lots 15 and 16
fronting on S.W. Stratford Loop will be razed.
8. The Summerfield Planned Development immediately west of the
' parcel has been required as a condition of the approval of
that development to provide a bike path along S .W. Durham
Road to the east end of the planned development . In keep-
ing with the policies of the 1974 Comprehensive Pedestrian
Bicycle Pathway Plan, continuation of this path along the
Durham Road frontage of the subject parcel should be under-
taken as well .
9. The traffic and noise on Durham Road, combined with the ac-
tivities on the Tigard High School site directly across
from the parcel, will tend to adversely impact the proposed
residential character of this development . To lessen the
impacts of noise, traffic, lights, air pollution, etc . and
maintain a compatible relationship between the development,
Durham Road, and the school site, some form of buffering

would be desirable, such as landscaping or a berm along the
southern portion of the parcel fronting on Durham Road.
10. The addition of a common street tree would be beneficial
and add to the desirability of the subdivision, especially
since this parcel is essentially void of vegetation .,
III . CONCLUSIONARY FINDINGS :
1. The proposed preliminary plat conforms to the Tigard Com-
munity Plan, 1971 in that the proposed lotting pattern is
for residential purposes, conforms to the dimensional re-
quirements of Title 18 of the Tigard Municipal Code (zon-
ing) , and furthers the arterial streets policies of the Ti-
gard Community Plan, 1971.
2. Water is currently not available to the site. However, the
necessary procedure for assuring the availability of water
by the Tigard- Water* District is currently being pro-
cessed through: the Boundary Review:.Corflmission .
3. With the attachment of appropriate conditions, access will
4 , be available to all lots, and each lot as proposed will
abut a public street.
