Minutes of the December 18, 1985 meeting were reviewed and approved as submitted. Mark introduced representatives of Sherwood, Tualatin, and the Tigard Chamber who were present to discuss the common goals and needs of our communities and the Sister City project. Mary Tobias of Sherwood reported that Sherwood has a y new manager who answers many of the economic development inquiries. She noted that Sherwood has the advantage of lower cost land. A key to Sherwood' s development is the future construction of the Norwood interchange. Janet Young, project planner for the City of Tualatin, noted that Tualatin is experiencing a lot of commercial growth. Industrial growth is anticipated in the western portion of the City once transportation access to I-5 improves. Janet distributed a copy of Tualatin' s Economic Development Action Plan which was prepared by a standing committee. The committee may get together annually to review and update the plan. Discussion was held concerning the possibility of working together to address economic development and transportation issues. Jack Schwab suggested that a cooperative effort could be put together by the three communities to share information and prepare a marketing effort for the area. The prospect of getting brokers, property owners, and businesses involved to form a committee was discussed. If the private sector gets involved, dues could be raised and funds solicited . Jeanne Caswell suggested that a task force be formed to determine if much an arrangement is feasible, If the task force reports that an opportunity is available for formation of a sub-regional group, the task force could ask the City Councils of the three communities if they wish to `++ support the concept. Mark pointed out that there is a need for business people to step forward and form the committee as was the case in the formation of TUEDC. That action, in the case of TUEDC, created instant credibility . Tony reported that similar success occurred for the Sunset 205 group in Clackamas which formed eight months ago and has raised $60,000. TIGARD ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE MINUTES JANUARY 15, 1985 - PAGE 1 e � It was recommended that a group made up of Jeanne Caswell, Jack Schwab, Mary Tobias, and Bill Monahan meet to come up with a recommendation for the Sister City group to evaluate common goals such as economic development and transportation. Bill reported on the status of the Economic Development Action Plan. The time lines for the subcommittee work on data gathering for the four action areas ` will be pushed back to coordinate with the City' s progress in developing a geographic information system (GIS) . The GIS system has been delayed while the master computer study has been underway . Revised time lines will be brought back to the committee. There were no presentations by developers of their projects. Each month the agenda will allocate space for five minute presentations. The election of officers was held . Bruce Clark was elected chairman after being nominated by Tony, second by Jim. Bruce accepted the nomination following a commitment by Committee members to get involved and support the Chairman. The vote was unanimous. Pat Kennedy, who has served as vice chairman for the past year, was re—elected as vice chairman following nomination by Jim and a second by Tony . The vote was unanimous. Other Business — On January 30, 1985, the Tigard Area Chamber and City of Tigard will conduct a seminar on Tigard' s development process . The seminar grew out of the December Economic Development Committee meeting which was attended by several area realtors. The seminar is one of five which the Chamber will hold in coming months. At each upcoming meeting Bill will review current projects for the Committee. The meeting adjourned at 9:00 A.M. The next Committee meeting will be held at �r :30 A.M. , Tuesday, February 19, 1985 at Pioneer Pies.

KI LLPACK (503)6482761 JOHN E. MEEK LUCILLE WARREN COORDINATED INATED E•ii.;(.lNOMIC DEVELOPMENT PLANNING •- SUMMARY There are currently more than two cozen organizations which provide economic c dfi.':'el.opment: " services, 6• it.hin Washington County, including: cities, chclmbers of commerce, the Sunset Corridor Association, the Tualatin Valley Economic Development Corporation (TVEDC) , the Washington t_`.r_unty Visitors Association, the Portland Development ComiTti ssi ol--i (PDC) , Metro, the State Economia Development Department, the Multnomah-Washington Private Industry Council (PIC) , and the County. The efficient utilization of resources through cooperation among and between these organizations and the coordination of their efforts is the basis of a THREE PHASED joi.nt economic development.: PLc=aNNl{•!G application by the Washington County DLUT and 'TVEDC.. All of the cities, as well as other economic development organizations, will be directly :involved as integral Participants in this project. The following delineations of interest and effort, while not exclusive, provide an understandable framework within which to discuss the approach of this joint County--TVEDC proposal . Economic development can be looked at, as having six major " ajor- ' functional areas of concern" l ) Marketing and Promotion; 2) Business Assistance and Advocacy; 3) Labor Market- Training and Education; 4) Development Regulation,' 5) Infrastructure Planning and Provision; 6) information and Research Services., The first two " areas of concern' are primarily dealt with by the private sector organizations (Chambers, TVE:l:rf:;,, Sunset. Corridor Assoc. ) , The third is primarily handled by the PIC, and the last three are primarily public sector :interests. This project will be managed by the Washington County DLUT and coordinated jointly with the TVEDC. DLUT will coordinate. the public: sector involvement and elements of this project while TVEDC will coordinate the private !sector involvement and elements. The involvement of and elements ment:s !:ffecting the PIC will be jointly coordinated by DLUT• and TVEDC,. an equal opportunity employer ~ ' ^o� ~�w� Page 2 It is proposed that the County and TVEDC are logical choices to provide an overall coordination function in the area of economic development planning, and for this project for three reasons. 1 > None of the existing organizations, including the County and TVEDC, can act as the PRIMARY economic development organization in Washington County - there are too many organizations with existing constituencies and existing statutory functions for any single organization to assume primary responsibility. 2) Both the County and TVEDC have countywide geographic Perspectives - none of the other organizations view their responsibility as extending to the entire county. 3) Both the County and TVEDC have broad-based staffing and program levels - the manpower, expertise, and resources to deal with the logistical requirements of setting up meetings, work sessions, doing research, presenting reports and issue papers, and generally providing the day-to-day coordination necessary to keep the two dozen organizations involved and informed in this cooperative process. One of the Block Grant Program' s main goals is to provide for projects that create job opportunities for low and moderate income residents. The aim of this project is to improve the efficiency and productivity of economic development planning by determining and implementing cooperative and coordinated relationships where the activities and efforts of individual economic development organizations are supportive of the activities and efforts of the other economic development organizations in the county. These improvements in productivity should create new jobs which will directly impact low and moderate income persons' employment opportunities in a positive manner.
