The minutes of the November meeting were read and approved as written. Liz reported on the City Center Plan Task Force activities . On November 25' a request for proposal was sent to 30 firms for a marketing plan. Contact has been made by 45 firms interested in providing the service to the City. Proposals are due to the City by December 21st at 12:00 Nunn. The City Centur, Plan Task Force will then review the proposals in late December and on January 7. The Committee will then meet with the City Council on January 18th in a workshop setting. Dartmouth Extension. Bill Monahan reported on the status of the local improvement diotriot. At this point' the City is seeking modifications to the draft permit to be issued by the state for access to Pacific Highway. Bill then gave an update of development activity within the City. He noted that the Westwood Corporation is continuing its negotiations with the City Cuuncil concerning replacement trees at the Tigard Town Square Center. He also noted that the total valuation for construction activity within the City for- calendar year 1987 recently topped 50 million dollars tutal. A press release will be issued that announces this mileotone. A key portion of the total valuation is made up of commercial and industrial construction ao well as alterations . Liz updated the Committee on the action plan. She noted that the action plan elements have been developed keeping in mind ease of implementation. She noted that after the first of the year, the implementation stage of the action plan will begin. Staff is developing help sheets with the assistance of the current planning utaff. Following that, attention will be given to developing lobby displays concerning economic development activity. She noted, too, that staff is reviewing several sections of the Community Development Code with the intent to modify the Code to streamline processing prncudureo . Liz will be reviewing the Code revisions keeping in mind business issues and economic development concerns as opposed to regulation and design criteria. Amo suggested that the plan be presented to the City Council by the Chairman and perhaps other Committee members , The Committee should be there to make the elements a priority. Peggy suggested that the Committee form budget requests that can be submitted for the annual City budget process . Items such as data updates, improved slide show, marketing information, etc. , could be included. The Community Development Department budget rmoiuu is tentatively scheduled for March 15, 1088. Susan suggested that promotions and City recognitions should also be part of the plan. John Savory asked that the Committee review the action plan and send in comments to Liz and John. Jim suggested that the Ambassador program include designation of a City employee who is the first contact person to give information to new business people. The employee should be knowledgeable of City Code as well as business climate. Bill suggested that the Planning Division is trying to coordinate staff better so that there is a person to fill that rule. He noted that there is a need to improve communication of the City' s goals and prioNNeu . Peggy suggested that the City hold a monthly meeting where Chamber representatives, Committee people, Ambassadors and staff could meet to 6iaouou and aooeou information, evaluate what the issues are, and decide who should be contact(--?d to clarify particular questions . A debriefing of issues from the prior month could occur to prevent major problems. Another benefit of the program would be an opportunity for the Ambassadors, Chamber, people, to get to know City staff better and understand and appreciate the jobs and responsibilities . Discussion turned to the Ambassador Program an John Savory asked what type of people thu Committee members wanted to have as ambassadors . The Committee earlier determined that an initial letter should be sent by the Mayor inviting people to participate in the program. Follow—up would then be accomplished by staff. Susan suggested that quarterly meetings of Ambassadors be held so that the Committee can keep in touch with the participants . She noted that unless the Ambassadors are utilized on a regular basis, they could lose interest in the program and the expectations could be lost. It was suggested that the Ambassadors could be plugged into groundbreakings, ribbon cuttings, and other Chamber activities . Amo suggested that a small group of Ambassadors be designated so that the program may start up. John Savory' Peggy Weston Byrd, and Amo DuBernardio volunteered to be part of that initial group. Puggy mentioned her walk—about program and suggested that a similar program be used by Ambassadors . The program stressing mailing contact with businesses to check on how they' re doing and how the City and Chamber can serve them better. Jim Corliss noted that we should use the Ambassadors for information dissemination to potential new businesses, not as an outreach program. Discussion occurred concerning the original intent of the Ambassador program and it was determined that the focus should be toward dissemination of information. It was noted that we should be careful how we use the resources within the program. There may be a need for a second group which could undertake the walk—about visiting program. The Tigard Triangle Questionnaire was reviewed. Amo suggested that the cover memo state that the questions come frum the City of Tigard and the Economic Development Committee, The mailing should occur after January 1' 1988. Thu Committee determined that a subcommittee press release should be issued by Jim, Amo and Kate concerning the Tigard Triangle Questionnaire. It should state what is going on in the Triangle, the purpose of the questionnaire, and the parameters of what the Economic Development Committee and the City are trying to accomplish. It was noted that all press releases of this kind need to go through the City Adminutratur` n office for approval . Discussion was then held concerning zoning of the Triangle. Liz noted that consideration of existing zoning was open for discussion within the study, but that no preconceived decisions had been made. The intunt in to hold information meetings uu that property owners within the area can give their input to the zoning and regulations currently in place. Now Business Peggy noted that on December 23' 1087 from 8:00 to 0:00 HM, the Chamber' s Deoemher, Bunineyx—uf—the—Month will be honored. The December honoree is City University which is located in the Tigard Triangle . The meeting closed at 9:00 AM. The next meeting of the Committee will be held on Tuesday, January 10' 1088' at 7:30 AM at Carrow` o Restaurant on Pacific Highway. br/2355D 7Communityevelopment DepartmentE ADJUSTMENT CITYOFTIIFARD mation Bulletin OREGON DEFINITION A Lot Line Adjustment is the adjustment of a common boundary where in additional lot is not created, where the existing parcel reduced in size by the adjustment is not reduced below the minimum lot standards, and no existing structure will violate the setback standards established by the Community Development Code.
