Overview of meeting agenda
II. Financial Analysis Presentation
Nick Popenuk gave a presentation on his analysis of a 35-year Urban Renewal Plan with a 4.5% assumed
growth rate.
$188M maximum indebtedness equates to $94.5M in today's dollars.
Amount of funds generated in the beginning are modest and increase significantly in later years.
Plans with timelines shorter than 35 years could be more appealing to the public, but also mean less
money for projects and less of a buffer against unforeseen market forces.
Tables showing how funds could be distributed across project categories and over the life of the
plan are included in the presentation slides and will be distributed after the meeting.

Joint CAC and TAC Meeting#3 Summary
August 22,2016
Given the nature of an urban renewal plan and the many variables that affect project funding over
time,it is important to understand what the community's priorities are for the first 5 years.
Impacts to taxing districts can be both direct and indirect.
Susan Shanks explained the rationale behind the proposed project category allocations and opened the floor
for discussion.
III. Discussion of Funding Allocation and Timing
Cassandra Ulven stated that she appreciates the specificity of Goals 2 and 3, and wishes Goal 4 were as
explicit. Specifically,TVFR would like a better understanding of what is meant by"recreational facility."
TVFR does not support spending urban renewal funding on projects that have not been shown to catalyze
development and that are more appropriately funded by bonds, such as fire stations, city halls, and public
recreation facilities. Overall,TVFR is comfortable with the proposed project category funding allocation.
Steve Kelley with Washington County noted that all of the transportation projects on the Urban Renewal
Plan project list might not be on the city and county's Transportation System Plan project lists. He would
like to reserve the right to review projects with city transportation staff.
Lori Faha suggested that the utility project category should clarify whether it is meant to fund just public or
both public and private utility projects.
Carrie Pak suggested that the utility project category might be underfunded.
Cassandra Ulven would like to include language in the plan that requires an assessment of its effectiveness
and the option to retire the plan if it does not perform as intended (as Beaverton and Milwaukie did with
their plans).
Calista Fitzgerald suggested that the plan should prioritize catalyst projects that will help spur future
development and interest in the Triangle.
Lori Faha responded that certain foundational projects might need to happen before others. For example,
siting and creating stormwater facilities before improving streets is necessary since stormwater management
has to happen with development and street improvements can lag behind development.
Elise Shearer noted that linking stormwater facilities to trail and parks projects would garner more
excitement and support from the public during the vote.
Recommendation: 13 out of the 22 members present supported a 35-year plan duration.
5 members abstained from the vote (city and county staf�.
3 members favored a shorter plan duration (fVFR and CPO-4M representatives).
IV. Action Items
Send committee members the presentation slide show and table showing monetary impacts to taxing
districts.
Make the following changes to the Project List and Goals & Objectives:
o Move parking projects to Goal 2 (Transportation) from Goal 4 (Public Spaces/Facilities) and
adjust funding allocations accordingly.

Joint CAC and TAC Meeting#3 Summary
August 22,2016
o Review Goal 2 (Transportation) project list with the County and revise as needed.
o Remove Goal 2 Project 4 per ODOT's request.
o Clarify that Goal 3 funding (Utilities) is meant for public utility projects. Clarify that private
utility projects could potentially receive urban renewal funding either directly or indirectly
through Goal 5 programs or partnerships if such assistance was in keeping with the district's
overall goals and objectives.
o Re-evaluate the stormwater facility cost estimates, specifically the land acquisition assumptions.
o Add more specificity to the kinds of projects to be funded (and not funded) under Goal 4
(Public Spaces/Facilities) to increase transparency. Work directly with TVFR to address their
concerns.
Make the following changes to the Urban Renewal Plan:
o Include language that addresses TVFR's desire to evaluate the plan at some future point and
potentially limit its duration based on performance.
o Modify the priorities for projects to be funded within the first 5 years to reflect committee
member input regarding the desire to strategically acquire land for certain kinds of uses (e.g.
stormwater facilities,parks, and housing), catalyze development through development assistance,
and fund projects that would generate public interest and excitement in the area.
V. Next Steps
Both the CAC and TAC voted against convening a meeting in September.
The next CAC meeting will be on Monday, Oct 24 from 6-8 p.m. at the Quality Inn in Tigard.
The next TAC meeting of the TAC will be Thursday, Oct 27 from 3-5 p.m. at the City of Tigard's Public
Works Auditorium. Both meetings will include a review and discussion of the draft Urban Renewal Plan.
