The regular July meeting is canceled due to lack of business to come before the Committee this month. 2 . NPO #6 has formally submitted its application to revise the Comprehensive Plan Transportation Map in the vicinity of 109th and Naeve Street . Enclosed is a copy of the NPO's report explaining the proposed revisions . The Transportation Advisory Committee has previously reviewed this proposal and indicated support . However, you have not previously seen the formal proposal . After reading the proposal , if you feel additional Committee discussion is needed, a special meeting can be called. If a special meeting is desired, please contact either Joe Schweitz or me. The Planning Commission hearing on the proposal is tentatively scheduled for July 22nd. Therefore, any additional Committee comments should be submitted before Julv 22nd. 3 . On June 11 , 1991 , the City Council adopted the updated Transportation Map which the Committee had previously reviewed. Enclosed is a copy of the adopted Map. The Committee had recommended that the map include an additional study area and note related to a potential future crossing of Highway 217 between the Tigard Triangle area (Dartmouth Street) and Hunziker Street. On the advice of the City Attorney, the Council did not adopt the additional study area. However , the Council did leave the public hearing open and will again consider the recommended additional study area on August 27 , 1991 . The Attorney recommended that the Map not be amended in the Triangle at this time due to current litigation involving the Comprehensive Plan for the Triangle. It is hoped that the litigation will be resolved before the August 27th meeting. 4 . All of the Street Bond projects , except Gaarde, are now either completed or under construction. Right-of-way acquisition is progressing on the Gaarde project , with settlements reached on 4 of the required 8 parcels. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN TRANSPORTATION MAP AMENDMENT FOR THE 109TH/NAEVE AREA Summary NPO #6 is recommending that the Comprehensive Plan Transportation Map be revised by (1) designating new minor collector roadways in the Little Bull Mountain area as shown on Attachment No. 2 and (2) changing the designation of Naeve Street from minor collector to local street. Background On December 17, 1990,the City Council authorized Neighborhood Planning Organization (NPO) #6 to initiate consideration of a Comprehensive Plan Amendment focused on transportation issues in the area of SW 109th Avenue and Naeve Street. Subsequently, the Engineering Department staff developed several conceptual plans for a street system in the study area. The study area was generally defined as the area bounded by Highway 99W on the west, Murdock Street on the north, 100th Avenue on the east, and the Summerfield development on the south. The NPO discussed the options at their meetings in March, April and May of 1991. Interested property owners were invited to attend and participate in the discussions. Following discussion at the May meeting, the NPO voted to initiate formal consideration of the specific Comprehensive Plan Transportation Map amendment proposed in this application. Existing Plan In the existing Comprehensive Plan, Naeve Street is designated as a minor collector street between Highway 99W and 109th Avenue. Sattler Street is designated as a minor collector street east of 100th Avenue. These two minor collector streets, along with Canterbury Lane to the north of the study area and Summerfield Drive to the south, provide the primary access routes to the study area under the existing plan. See Attachment No. 1. The current street system is shown in more detail in Attachment No. 3. In general, the easterly portion of the study area is designated for low density residential development. The westerly portion is designated for multi-family residential development, with some commercial zoning along Highway 99W. A number of large parcels within the study area have potential for redevelopment.Attachment No. 5 shows the existing zoning. CPA - TRANSPORTATION MAP - APPLICATION - 109TH/NAEVE PAGE 1 yam" Neighborhood Concerns The NPO and others have been concerned about potential traffic impacts of future development. Specifically, there is concern that future development will result in unacceptable levels of traffic in the areas of existing residential development. There is also concern about provision of adequate safe access to Highway 99W. Some of the concerns include: • The alignment of existing Naeve Street and 109th Avenue tends to direct traffic into the Summerfield development. Traffic from future development in the 109th/Naeve area may use local streets in Summerfield to access Durham Road. • Currently, a portion of 109th Avenue is undeveloped. If future development completes the missing section of 109th, then additional traffic may be attracted to 109th Avenue as a through connection between Summerfield and Little Bull Mountain. • A street connection is needed between 109th/Highland and 109th/Canterbury for emergency vehicles, in the opinion of the emergency service providers. • Within the study area, there is currently no connection between 100th and 109th Avenues. If Hoodview and Kable Streets are extended directly to 109th in the future, they will tend to operate as minor collector streets. • The intersection of Naeve and Highway 99W currently has no traffic signal, making it difficult to make left turns at the intersection. There is concern about the safety of this intersection if additional development occurs without signalization of the intersection. • There is concern that there are already too many signals on Highway 99W, hindering the flow of through traffic. A signal at Naeve Street might further impede traffic flow on Highway 99W. The NPO was looking for a plan which would address all of these concerns. ODOT Concerns The Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) has designated Highway 99W as an Access Oregon Highway (AOH). ODOT is developing regulations to protect the AOH system, including control of access. As a result, ODOT is striving to restrict the number of street and driveway accesses to the highway. When possible, ODOT would like to close existing accesses. CPA - TRANSPORTATION MAP - APPLICATION - 109TH/NAEVE PAGE 2 Previously, consideration was given to construction of a new access from the study area to Highway 99W opposite Beef Bend Road. ODOT has determined that this is not an acceptable proposal, due to the steep grades that would be required on the new street approach. The Proposal Attachment No. 2 shows the amended Comprehensive Plan Transportation Map which the NPO is proposing. Naeve Street, currently a minor collector, would be changed to a local street designation. SW 109th Avenue would be extended as a minor collector from its current terminus south of Murdock Street; the extension would curve across the south slope of Little Bull Mountain, crossing Naeve Street west of The Fountains condominiums and meeting Pacific Highway opposite the existing intersection of Royalty Parkway. In addition, a new minor collector street, labeled "Sattler Extension", is proposed to connect between 100th and 109th Avenues at a location north of Hoodview Drive. Attachment No. 4 shows the approximate alignment of the new streets. Traffic Impacts The total traffic to and from the study area is not changed by this revision in the Transportation Map, because there is no change in the zoning. However,the routes used to access the study area may change under the proposed revision. Traffic using Summerfield streets to access the area is expected to decrease under the revised plan, as the plan provides only an indirect connection to Summerfield. The proposed Sattler Extension will provide a direct access to the east and is expected to carry approximately 700 vehicles per day when the area is fully developed. This volume is in the low range for minor collector streets and within the range of tolerable volumes for local streets. (The background document for Tigard's Comprehensive Plan suggests a range of 0 - 1,500 vehicles per day for local streets and 500 - 3,000 for minor collector streets.) Without the Sattler Extension, some of the traffic would be expected to use Canterbury Lane, Murdock Street, Kable Lane, and Summerfield Drive as a route to the east. Elimination of Naeve Street as a collector street is expected to increase the volume of traffic using SW 109th Avenue to reach Pacific Highway via Canterbury Lane. When the area is fully developed, the daily traffic volume on 109th is expected to be approximately 1,500 - 2,000 vehicles per day near Murdock Street. This volume will be substantially reduced if Naeve Street is maintained as a right-turn-only access to Pacific Highway. The new access to Pacific Highway at Royalty Parkway will reduce the projected traffic volume on Naeve Street. The new street is expected to carry approximately 1,000 vehicles per day south of Naeve Street when the study area is fully developed. CPA - TRANSPORTATION MAP - APPLICATION - 109TH/NAEVE PAGE 3 +' NOW A more complete traffic report has been prepared by the firm of Kittleson & Associates, Inc., and is available for inspection at City Hall. Land Use Impacts The proposed connection between 109th Avenue and Royalty Parkway will impact several existing properties. Each of the properties has the potential for substantial redevelopment under existing zoning. The owners of the properties north of Naeve Street have indicated that they have development plans that are compatible with the proposed street alignment. South of Naeve Street, the proposed new road runs through properties that are zoned for commercial development. In some cases, the new road would split existing parcels into two lots. Each of the remaining parcels could be legally developed under current zoning laws; however, more attractive commercial parcels could be created by combining the various parcels on each side of the new road. The new road would give these commercial properties access to Pacific Highway at a signalized intersection, allowing left turns to and from the Highway. Currently, most of the parcels have right-in/right-out access only at private driveways. The parcels would still have frontage on Pacific Highway for good visibility. Under its Access Oregon Highway plan, the State Highway Division will be severely limiting direct access to the Highway for any new development. The Sattler Extension is expected to have only limited impact on the adjoining properties. When the properties between 100th and 109th are developed, it will be necessary to construct at new street to serve any new lots. The route of the Sattler Extension appears to be the only available access route to 100th. Hence, it appears that a street on the approximate alignment of Sattler Extension would need to be built with future development, even if not required by the Transportation Map. Timing and Funding During the NPO discussions questions were raised about how the proposed roadways would be funded for construction and when. Who will pay for these new roadways? How will construction of the new roadways be coordinated with development of the various properties? Typically, road improvements are constructed at the time of development and funded by the developers. Each development is required to build its piece of the roadway system. Thus, the timing for completion of the proposed roadway system depends on the timing of development. At the NPO meetings,there was concern that the proposed new roadway connection from Naeve Street to Royalty Parkway may need to be completed prior to redevelopment of CPA - TRANSPORTATION MAP - APPLICATION - 109TH/NAEVE PAGE 4 the adjoining properties. Specifically, it was thought that this roadway connection will be needed at the time that the multi-family residential property north of Naeve is developed. If the road is to be constructed as one project, it will probably be necessary for the City to purchase the necessary right-of-way and construct the road. Potential funding methods have been identified. Actual funding would probably be by some combination of two or more of the following methods: 1. TIF. Development of the properties north of Naeve will generate substantial revenues from Traffic Impact Fees (TIF). If the new road is identified as a TIF- eligible road, the TIF funds could be applied towards construction of the new road. There is a process available for reviewing the list of TIF-eligible roads and adding new roads to the list as a result of a change in the Comprehensive Plan. Council approval would be required. 2. Reimbursement District. If the road were constructed with Citywide funding, a reimbursement district could be created to recover the portion of the cost which would normally be the responsibility of future development. Each development would then repay its share at the time of development. 3. Citywide Street Funds. The collector street would be eligible for funding from citywide street funds derived from gas tax and other sources. The project would have to compete against other priority projects for the use of any citywide funds. Establishment of Exact Alignments The Comprehensive Plan Transportation Map describes street alignments in general terms. Precise roadway alignments are usually determined at the time of actual development. The precise alignment is typically based on more detailed engineering and the needs of the specific developments that are proposed. Therefore, the proposed revision describes only the approximate alignment of the future streets. When specific development proposals are considered, there is additional opportunity for public review and comment on the specific alignments. Naeve StreeVPacific Highway Intersection Under its Access Oregon Highway plan, the State Highway Division is endeavoring to reduce the number of access points and crossings of Pacific Highway. If the Royalty Parkway connection is constructed, it is assumed that the State will require the closing of the median at Naeve Street, preventing left turns to and from Pacific Highway. It is possible that right turn access would still be allowed. CPA - TRANSPORTATION MAP - APPLICATION - 109TH/NAEVE PAGE 5 Existing 109th Avenue at Naeve Street Existing 109th Avenue north of Naeve Street is a steep narrow gravel roadway. It is intended that this gravel roadway would remain as a local access from Naeve Street to the adjoining properties. It is intended that the gravel roadway would not connect to the minor collector portion of 109th. In the future, when the properties east of 109th are redeveloped, it is intended that the gravel portion of 109th would be eliminated. Conclusions The proposed revision to the Comprehensive Plan Transportation Map appears to satisfy Comprehensive Plan Policy 8.1.1 by providing a safe and efficient street and roadway system that meets current needs and anticipated future growth and development. In addition, the proposed revision addresses neighborhood concerns as follows: • It reduces the potential for through traffic in Summerfield by eliminating the direct connection to 109th and Naeve. • It provides for emergency vehicle access between Summerfield and Little Bull Mountain by a series of indirect connections. • It eliminates the safety concerns of existing Naeve/Pacific Highway intersection by providing an alternative access at Royalty Parkway. • It provides a new access without requiring any new traffic signals on Pacific Highway. • It is consistent with the Access Oregon Highway standards. -1cpa-app CPA - TRANSPORTATION MAP - APPLICATION - 109TH/NAEVE PAGE 6 IE I Cd w P4 r.. 1..C:� co cn r-.
