Seconded: Cal Woolery -- In favor: 5 Against: 0
• Discussion of Community Commercial Zone.
Motion: Ed Howden, to approve comments regarding New Community Commercial
District as follows:
NPO #7 endorses the new Community Commercial district. However, we advocate
additional limits on scale.
First, this district should include a lower 30,000 sq ft limit on single grocery store gross
floor area.
Second, this district should exclude the conditional use process to raise a limit on single
store gross floor area.
Third, this district should include a limit on total commercial gross floor area (versus civic
gfa) equal to 25% of site gross acres.
We now agree with Mssrs. Bewersdorff and Offer that this commercial district could be
compatible with residential areas at major collector-major collector intersections. We now
understand that this district would be smaller than 8 acres at some sites to be compatible
with surrounding residential areas. We concede that this district could better serve some
residential areas from sites at some major collector-major collector intersections.
We still argue that this commercial district should include low limits for single grocery
store gfa (30,000 sq ft) and single general retail store gfa (10,000 sq ft) to ensure that
such stores would be compatible with residential areas. Low limits on gross floor area
for single stores would:
` • •
1. Soften storefronts within residential areas;
2. Promote stores that provide convenience shopping for nearby residents
(see Matt Marcott exhibit);
3. Limit stores that provide comparison shopping for general consumers;and
4. Promote a variety of goods and services at one location (see Shopping
Center Build-out exhibit).
We also argue that this district should exclude the conditional use process to raise a limit
on single store gross floor area. It is the right of residents to set limits on single store gfa
now (versus hearings officers later) to ensure stores would be compatible with their
neighborhoods.
And we still argue that this district should include a limit on total commercial gross floor
area to promote some civic use (branch library) within residential areas. We suggest a
limit on total commercial gfa equal to typical site coverage of one-story retail build-out.
Seconded: Jim Blanchard -- In favor: 4 Abstain: 1
Motion: Cal Woolery, that minutes be submitted to Planning Commission open record of
Monday, March 2, 1992 as NPO #7 position.
Seconded: Ed Howden -- In favor: 5 Against: 0

CITY OF TIGARD, OREGON
TO: Interested Persons
FROM: Jerry Offer, Development Review Planner
DATE: March 19, 1992
SUBJECT: Zone Ordinance Amendment ZOA 92-0003
The- Planning Division -staff proposes the following amendments to
Community Development Code _Chapter 18:106 related to required
parking. Proposed deletions are noted in brackets [ ] . Proposed
additions are underlined. The tentative schedule for review of
this proposal is Planning Commission review on April 6th and City
Council review on April 28th.
Disabled Person Parking
-Staff proposes amendments to Code Sections 18. 10.6.020 to remove
Code requirements related to disabled person parking spaces that
are inconsistent with provisions of the Oregon Revised Statutes and
the federal Americans with Disabilities Act. Since state and _
federal laws supersede local laws, unless the .local . laws are
stricter, staff proposes that the Community Development Code simply
require consistency with state and federal standards for disabled
person parking rather than establishing a separate -City standard.
The general terms with which describes the standards will avoid the
City needing to revise the Code in the future if federal or state
laws change.
18 . 106 . 020 General Provisions
A. Parking Dimensions
1. The dimensions for parking spaces are:
a. Nine feet wide and 18 feet long for a standard
space;

for a compact space; and
C. As required by [In accordance with the]

long] for designated [handicapped] disabled
person parking spaces.
same standards required for the construction and
acceptance of City streets;
2 . Off-street parking spaces for single and two-family
residences shall be improved with an asphalt or
concrete surface to specifications as approved by
the City Engineer, except as noted below; [and]
3. Parking areas to be used primarily for the storage

gravel surfaced when authorized by the approval
authority at the time the site development approval
is given. The Director may require that the
property owner enter into an agreement to pave the
parking area: a) within a specified period of time
after establishment of the parking area; or b) if
there is a change in the types or weights of
vehicles utilizing the parking area; or c) if there
is evidence of adverse effects upon adjacent
roadways, water courses, or properties Such an
agreement shall be executed as a condition of
approval of the plan to establish the gravel
perking area. Gravel surfaced parking areas may
only be permitted consistent with the following:
— a. Gravel parking areas shall not be
permitted within 250 feet of any
residentially zoned or residentially
developed area; —

AGENDA OF: March 24, 1992 DATE SUBMITTED: March 4, 1992
ISSUE/AGENDA TITLE: Zoning Ord. amend. PREVIOUS ACTION: Planning Commission
ZOA 92-01 recommendation Feb. 3 1992
PREPARED BY: Dick Bewersdorff
DEPT HEAD OK CITY ADMIN O REQUESTED BY: Ed Murphy
------------- -------- ----
ISS BEFORE THE COUNCIL
Should the City revise its temporary sign requirements to redefine the limits on temporary
signs?
---------------------------------
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council approve the attached ordinance.
------------ - INFORMATION SUMMARY
The City receives numerous complaints regarding the tendency for temporary signs to
proliferate in various commercial areas of the city. The City's -temporary sign regulations
'tend to be difficult to enforce. equitably. because they are poorly defined, unclear and
conflicting.' -Uncontrolled and unenforced temporary signs create a visual blight- on the
community. As a result, amemdme`nts are being proposed to -the temporary sign -provisions of
the Development Code (Ch. 18.114.100). The amendments should assist in .providing equal
opportunity for each business to utilize temporary signs (one business in.a shopping center
can .effectively monopolize all of the 70 square feet now allowed) ; eliminate some of -the
clutter caused by the uncontrolled use orf temporary signs, clarify the rules, eliminate
administrative cost and .simplify enforcement.
The proposed changes include: limiting temporary signs to a period of 30 .days (now 60 with -
continuous renewal) three times per calendar year;- allowing one temporary sign per business
rather than the four now allowed; limiting.the area of temporary signs to 24 square feet -(now
70 square feet for rigid signs and 30 square feet for each banner and wall sign) ; requiring
a permit for each temporary sign to allow for better tracking and efficient enforcement
instead of having the first sign permitted without a permit; eliminating the distinction of
a temporary, rigid, freestanding sign by classifying all temporary signs together;
eliminating the duplication of lawn signs listed twice under 18.114.060; providing for real
estate signs not classified as a lawn sign; providing for an exemption -for temporary real
estate lawn signs from the 10 day removal period; and specifying that temporary signs be
removed 10 days after the election to which they pertain.
Copies of the proposed changes were sent to a subcommittee of the Chamber of Commerce's
Public Affairs Committee_ The one response received was positive_
The Planning Commission recommended .the attached ordinance. The only change the Commission
made from the staff recommendation to them (attached) was to reduce the size of temporary
signs permitted from 32 square feet to 24 -square feet. Staff concurs.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
PROPOSED ALTERNATIVES
1. Change the Development Code as summarized above.
2. Retain the Code as is and require permits for all temproary signs:
3. Change the Code to eliminate regulations of temporary signs.::
4. Change the Code to prohibit temporary signs.
S. Retain the Code as is except for limiting the square footage of temporary,: rigid,
freestandings signs per business rather than per premise_
FISCAL NOTES
There is some potential for minor increased revenue because of the number of temporary signs
without a permit. (Temporary sign fee is now $10 per sign.)

MEMORANDUM
CITY OF TIGARD, OREGON
TO: Planning Commission
FROM: Planning Division -
DATE: January 22, 1992
SUBJECT: Proposed Amendments to Development Code Pertaining to
Temporary Signs
OVERVIEW
Summary: The City receives .numerous complaints regarding. the
tendency for temporary signs ,to proliferate in various commercial
areas in the city. The City's temporary sign regulations tend to
be difficult to enforce equitably because they are poorly defined,
unclear and conflicting. Uncontrolled and unenforced temporary
signs create a visual blight on the community. As a result,
amendments are being proposed to the temporary sign provisions of
the Development Code (Ch. 18.114.100) . The amendments will assist .
in providing equal opportunity for each business to . utilize
temporary signs, eliminate some. of the clutter caused the —
uncontrolled use of temporary signs, eliminate competition for the
70 square feet of temporary,rigid, freestanding shopping center
signage now allowed, clarify the rules, eliminate administrative
cost and simplify enforcement.
Policy Implications: Should- the City .revise .its temporary sign
requirements to redefine the limits on temporary signs?
Financial Impact: There is some minor potential for increased
revenue because of the number of uncontrolled, temporary signs with
no permit. (Temporary sign fee is now $10 per sign. ) There should
also be a savings due to an increase in the effectiveness .of
enforcement_
Recommendation: It. is recommended . that the .Development,: Code
Chapter 18.114.100 be amended to: limit the number of temporary,
signs per business to:one with a maximum of 32 square. feet -of area;,
require a permit for=;.allraemporary:,.signs, :<-:limit '-temporary-;._sign
permits to be issued'-.for periods-- no.—'.—longer.than 30'days;,and�.for
maximum of three-periods per: calendar..year; -include.: all=temporary ,-_
signs (banners, rigid;-: wall)'-to be;within'. the same-classification
ANALYSIS
Background
The City continually receives complaints regarding the
proliferation of temporary signs as well as its attempts - to
equitably enforce the existing regulations.
The code now allows four temporary signs per business, but only 70
square feet of temporary, rigid, freestanding sign space per
premise (shopping centers and multiple business locations) . The
first of the four temporary signs is allowed without a permit. All
others are required to apply for a permit. Since temporary signs
can be renewed after 60 days, they become almost "permanent" . In
shopping centers and multiple business locations, one business can
monopolize the allowed temporary, rigid, freestanding sign space
(70 square feet allowed) by continually renewing an existing
permit. They can effectively freeze out other businesses in the
same location from having a temporary rigid sign. This has- created
considerable discontent among businesses in the same center when
the city attempts to enforce the temporary rigid sign limitation.
In sign code enforcement, where there area number of temporary
rigid signs, the City .cannot determine whose sign is the ::first
"free" temporary sign to be allowed -versus those that must be
removed. Enforcement requires clearly. defined provisions and
administrative efficiency -to be effective.
Summary of Proposed Changes
o Limit temporary sign permits to a period of 30 days (now
60) three times per calendar year
o Allow one temporary sign per business rather than the
four now allowed and the 70 square feet of rigid sign per
premise
o Limit the area of temporary signs to 32 square feet (one-
half a standard 4x8 plywood sheet per face -- now 70
square feet for rigid signs and 30 square feet for each
banner and wall sign)
o Require a permit for each temporary sign to allow for
better tracking and efficient enforcement instead of
having one sign permitted without a permit
o Eliminate the distinction of a temporary, rigid,
freestanding sign by classifying all temporary signs
together; banners continue to be included
o eliminate the duplication of. lawnsigns listed
twice under 18 . 114.060 (Sign Exemptions)
o provide for real estate signs not classified as a lawn
s ign
o provide for an exemption for temporary real estate lawn
signs from the 10 day removal period
o specify that temporary political signs .shall be removed
ten days after the election to which they pertain
Alternatives
1. Change the Development Code as summarized above. This
will increase accountability, simplify the process, limit
temporary signs, and provide an equitable opportunity for
each business to utilize temporary signs.
2. Retain the Code as is and require permits for all
temporary signs. This will improve tracking but will not
eradicate conflict in shopping centers and multiple
business locations.
3. Change the Code to not, regulate temporary signs. This
will eliminate enforcement problems but would appear. to
be counter to the City's efforts .to improve aesthetics.
4. Change the Code to not allow temporary signs. This would
be simple to enforce but may prove. difficult for
business.
5. Retain the Code as is except •for limiting the square
footage of temporary, -rigid, • freestanding signs - per
business- not premises. This would add to the
proliferation of temporary signs and aesthetic problems.
