Dave gave information from the 7TR manual of a study done for a potential. Hot n'Now site at N.E. 181 Ave. and Glisan St . The area has about 2000 vehicles per hour and 2500 vehicles per hour during the peak noon and late afternoon . This is similar to the Highway 99W and Park St. area of Tigard. The following paragraph is from Dave' s information. Note: a "trip" is considered one incoming and one outgoing vehicle_ "The trip generation for this site is estimated at 1, 450 trips per clay. A peak generation of 200 trips per hour is anticipated during the noon peak hour, when the site is in full use. The trip generation rates are based on observation of similar uses in the Portland area and on a nationwide survey conducted on fast food restaurants. " Dave apologized to Kent Hansen for not immediately understanding his question regarding the volume of traffic in and out of the restaurant, thinking that we wanted privileged Taco Bell information rather than an estimate of what might be expected_ Dave also stated that he had made some inquiries regarding the possibility of Taco Bell oupporting the neighborhood in seeking street and sidewalk improvements to Park St . That help would have to come from Pepsico headquarters in Atlanta, so is very unlikely. Dave would, however, as an individual help in any way he can to support the neighborhood whenever we wish to pursue improvement requests. Respectfully submitted, G� V_ � Lila Garner January 28 , 1993 Martha, Gena, and Lynne, Just to keep you up to date, today, Thursday, I called my friend Brian Moore of the Planning Commission about the vote taken on the right turn only signage for Hot n' Now. He had the minutes with him at work, so faxed that portion to me. They are attached. There is no 90 day condition, and Brian did not remember any conversation about that, so he considers the enforcable sign permanent. Also talked to Liz Newton regarding a future bond issue. She is going to ask Herm Porter if she can facilitate the 8 : 00 portion of the meeting on Wednesday. Fifteen minutes will be spent on reporting the conditions of approval for Hot n'Now, fifteen minutes on a status report of Taco Bell. Then options will be offered as to how we can achieve some of our goals to settle the safety concerns. I mentioned the interest in a future bond issue, one is not planned at this time, but is not an impossiblity, also it sounds like capital improvement money might .-�be available at some point. She said that hiring an attorney will not necessarily gain anything for us. I felt better, knowing that several of the staff will be at the meeting and it will be somewhat controlled but still allow for our input . Liz says she in concerned about safety also and the continued growth of Tigard. I hope and think we can win her over to the cooperative group. We need to be sure that when we all speak that we are organized and factual. Too much detail , "war stories" , and emotion will not get us results, my experience in the business world has been that the decision makers tune out under those conditions. Please don' t interpret this as a lecture, I feel as strongly about the issues as you do and want us to achieve success and also win over the staff . Marjorie Rich, 10830 SW Fairhaven Wy. , 639-1247 she said would be happy P to help distribute flyers. I also think that Kathy Chung at 10730 SW Fairhaven St . will &-J:ma help. See you Wednesday! February 8, 1993 City of Tigard Councilman and Planners: Taco Bell Application As of Feb. 8 Taco Bell staff report for public input from City Hall will not be available for comments until Feb. 9. Writing the below for input on this application: Park Street should not be part of ingress or egress, 9cV has access—engress off Pietro's—and Storage site. Subject: City of Tigard policy outside of Cen. Bus. Dist., P.D. gives developers outright permit without public hearings, no traffic survey, nor impact study or sight design review for properties zoned community commercial, general commercial. State Hwy. directive to direct traffic off 99W onto residential zoned areas impacting established neighborhoods Pias not been addressed by the City of Tigard as an acceptable policy? Everyone realizes City of Tigard wishes to balance commercial, residential uses where is the study showing how much commercial, general commercial is required along 99W without encroaching on established neighborhoods? Our particular area Watkins—Park is already carrying a heavy load from commercial uses on Hwy. 99. A petition signed by 71 residents bordering Walnut and Gaarde street is on file asking that traffic be diverted from our neighboryfing streets. Task force report is attached to this memo for your evaluation on guidelines to insure school, residential safety on local streets noted on your material as collectors with Watkins being treated as a 'frontage' road without improvements? Hollywood Video is open thru to 2 a.m. with accltss on Watkins. Our neighborhood realizes 600' along Park St. has been zoned for general commercial across from 50 year old residential homes occupied by elderly residents and young families. Again general commercial allows 24 hour opening incl. dance bars and video enterprises. The neighborhood by petition asked that this 600' be rezoned to multi family dwellings to insure the integrity of this neighborhood as Chas. F. Tigard grade school is affected. St. of Oregon dictates by law that students wa, to school if within 12 miles of thehool. At no time during a recent outright permit pplicant was the factor o0) the effe 4l ncreased general commercial would have on our local streets i.e. students walking along Watki&s, Parc, 110th, 107th, Derrydell, Fairhaven incl. the new pathway for Gensis and Pathfinder? There are no white lines on our local streets indicating autos, nor pathways for the children to use to get to and from school. Randy Wooley did commit TIF—or getting on the list for Capitol Improvements to address safety. Our neighborhood is working directly tly with Chief of Police Ron Goodpaster and School Dist. 23 J.—all encouraging our neighborhood to address safety. g � I had a problem accepting "in house" evaluations that being 75°0 of home owners do not have children thereby the remaining 25% do not deserve neighborhood improvements without an L.I.D. or floating a bond that is shared by all school district entities. Fact the City of Tigard has chosen to place general commercial onto our residential roadways and intends to increase economic development for a higher tax base by extending residential uses to commercial uses without regard to improving our local roadways is insensible. Eliminating t:-affic study survey paid by the developer, impact and sight design review does not protect the safety of our residential areas. "In house has stated it's too expensive for the developers?" The 75% referred to by staff certainly doesn't take into consideration our elderly who must walk, the many who use our roadways to jog, hike, bike,bus, roller skate, shop at businesses on 99W who need marked pathways for safety? Neighborhood agreed to asphalt sidewalks on one side as a temporary measure, marked pathways,A.line down our local streets, as a 'beginning' of good faith by the City. However, we have our share of traffic for the tax base and the number of established homes —all pay taxes and should have safety as our #1 goal. See attached and hope most if not all conditions are met by home owners who invested in a quality of life with SAFETY as our motto. *Note as of this date City of Tigard is putting in a crosswalk ^n Walnut—Watkins a site where a child tried to cross over on his bike and was hit: Net result—bruises and totaled bike. Enc, is the neighborhood task force 8 conditions for above approval—Taco Bell. cc: Chief of Police Ron Goodpansstteer — Supt. of Schools Joki%,Russ;; Prin. of Chas.F.Tigard Baker. Citizens for a Safe Tigard (Safety is Our Goal) These are some of the concerns currently affecting safety in Tigard. At the top of the list are misleading and irresponsible statements,lack of reliable information,and stone-walling by the public officials to whom we gave the power of caring for our city,ourselves and our children. We don't expect you to agree with everything we want and we realize that budgets are n deceit are totally unacceptable. lack of concern and stressed to the limit,but your hypocrisy,incredible y P "Citizens for a Safe Tigard" have met to create a task force to hold you accountable for your actions. We feel that your first obligation should be toward furthering cooperation between you and your constituents. Toward that end we submit the following'recommendations' for your consideration: 1) ...that city planners be required to have Sight Design Review,Traffic Survey and Impact Statements done on all projects by an independent company. The findings must be submitted to the people at a Public Hearing before out-right use of property is granted. No modifications should be made to the approved plan (such as addition of another facility)without another impact study which would include all modifications. All expenses incurred must be paid by the developers,not by the city as suggested by city officials. 2) ...that an independent company be hired to ensure that whatever plans are accepted by the council are carried out fully by the developer. Stiff penalties should be imposed if the developers 'inadvertently' forget to comply,such as the complete shut-down of the facility until the plans are completed as approved. Again,paid for by developer. include 3 Y ...that a bond issue be created for safety improvements for Park and Watkins which would walkways,traffic signs,bike paths,centerlines,speed reducers and crosswalks for the 200 children who are required to walk to and from their elementary school. 4a) ...a 4-way stop be placed at the intersection of Park and Watkins because there have been several accidents at that corner and to reduce traffic speeds between 99 and 110th. 4b) ...a crosswalk and pedestrian crossing sign placed at the intersection of Watkins and Walnut. The blind curve west of Watkins on Walnut is especially dangerous. Recently a child was hit near that intersection. We insist that you quit putting up personal road blocks before safety of your citizens, unless studies prove that crosswalks are unsafe. 5) ...that ODOT perform a signal sequencing study and traffic analysis along 99 between I-5 and n ' implemented b the council. an la �s Latin and shown to our committee before y TuaY P P 6) ...that if ODOT does not permit ingress and egress to commercial development along 99 as well as the side streets, (Including Hot&Now and Taco Bell)there should not be any development along 99. Further,residential neighborhoods should not bear the brunt of 99 growth. We want the council to lobby state officials on our behalf to make sure the problems of 99 are resolved by development of 99 rather than exacerbating neighborhood safety hazards. Many of us moved into this stable residential neighborhood because it had a wonderful balance of commercial and residential development. While you may be thinking of the increased revenue to be made on new developments,remember that our neighborhood and property values will continue to erode until you will be left no tax base at all,let alone a neighborhood that could afford to pay it. You have already jeopardized the safety of the children walking to and from C.F.Tigard Elementary School which should have been your first priority. 7) ...that the remaining property on the South side of Park between Grant and Watkins be re-zoned to multi-family to reflect the neighborhood,the elementary school and the residential area across from it. Having it as general commercial creates a negative impact on the neighborhood and surrounding area. Putting any kind of commercial business on the balance of that strip is unexceptable and insensitive to community concerns, especially with such close proximity to the elementary school and the enhanced risk of traffic and crime concerns. 8) ...that Watkins and Park be re-designated from Minor Collector to Local Street after bringing them up to the minimum requirements set forth in the Functional Street Classification guidelines including a means for pedestrian and bike travel. The guidelines from the City of Tigard adopted in 1983 say that for a Minor Collector the pavement width should be 40 feet and the right-of-way be 60 feet and that its secondary function is to provide a means for pedestrian and bike travel. A local street has a pavement width of 34 feet and a right-of-way of 50 feet and emphasizes and provide a means for pedestrian and bike travel. Watkins pavement is only 24 feet wide,its right-of-way only 44 feet without any provisions for pedestrians or bikes. As it is the streets are totally inadequate for the safety of pedestrians. We thank you for your consideration of these matters and look forward to an early response.

" REC - 9:05 RECONvENNK - 9:15 5.2 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT CPA 92-0007 CITY OF TIGARD (NPO 43) A proposal to amend the Transportation Plan Map relating to the future alignment of a collector street connecting S.W. Walnut Street and S.W. Gaarde Street. APPLICABLE REVIEW CRITERIA: Statewide Planning Goals 1, 2, 5, and 12; Ccoaprehensive Plan Policies 1.1.1a, 1.1.20, 8.1.2, 11.3.1, and 11.3.2; Community Development Code Chapters 18.22 and 18.30. LOCATION: Northeast side of Bull Mountain west of SW 121st Avenue and SW Gaarde Street, south of Walnut Street, and east of SW 132nd Avenue. a City Engineer Randy Wooley explained the Transportation Plan amendment and referred to the wall map to show the subject area. He explained Note 2 which is a study area. He described the two alternatives which were being considered. Alternative I was called the "report option" since it came about following the 1990 Bull Mountain Report. Alternative 2 was called the "NPO Option" because NPO 43 has proposed this option. City Engineer compared projected traffic for bath options, as well as feasibility. He noted that 132nd is narrow with steep grades, snaking Alternative 2 a less feasible option. He recoxmended adopting the Report Option because is provides a better route with less steep grades and would have fewer impacts on existing neighborhoods. PUBLIC TESTIMONY o Herman Porter, 11875 SW Gaarde, handed out NPO 3 minutes (Exhibit C) and stated that both HPO 3 and 7 support the Alternative 2, the HPO Option. He discussed the daily traffic volumes on Gaarde Street. He voice concern about ending up with too high of volumes. He was not in favor of turning Gaarde into an arterial, or an alternate route to I-5. He voiced acceptance for a collector but not an arterial. o Cal Woolery, 12356 SW 132nd Ct., discussed the area between Walnut and Hampton. He favored developing another option which would join at 132nd from 150th south of Walnut.

We request that this be modified-to require the "signing of a non-remonstrance agreement for these improvements with no construction at this time for two reasons: ,> 1. A bridge would be required over the 100-year flood plain of Fanno Creek. Approximately half, or 180.feet of this bridge, fronts this project with theY. remainder to the north of the site. A structure of this sort is more appropriately handled by the,City: 2. The remaining half-street improvements would be at the end of a dead end road. These improvements would be isolated and would serve no practical y , 17.- purpose at this time. Moreover,the improvements will be in wetlands which " '4 are perhaps better left in their natural state until such time that the improvements are needed. We do propose to add at the existing edge of pavement a curb, 5-foot wide .` sidewalk,.and storm drainage connections from our driveway access point to our southern boundary This will give pedestrian connection from Ash to Main Street. WETLANDS ,` Wetlands have been delineated on the site, as described by the-attached reportA� �: from SRI. This delineation was originally rformed in November of 1990 and had been accepted by-ODSL at-that time:as-seen by the attached letter.:Since , T 2y ,ears have passed the report was reviewed by,SRI for this application. It was ► 3ra� found that the original delineation still holds: The Oregon Division of State Lands and the Oregon Department-of Fish and_ Wildlife'have walked'the site with:OTAK and.have reviewed the preliminary y � = ��_ { - plans.'

WIR FLOOD PLAIN3 IJ " •' i The 100-year flood plain cuts across a substantial part of the eastern portion of the site. Modifying this flood plain line is needed to make effective use of this site.- With ite.With this.design, there.is a reduction in the existing flood plain horizontal area by 15%* The existing area of flood plain is 114,700 square feet. The new area after development will be approximately 97,500 square feet. Jerry Offer December 17, 1992 ` ; r City of Tigard Page 4 r The volume of fill proposed within the flood plain is approximately 2,000 cubicc yards. This is the amount of fill to bring the existing ground elevation to the J. j flood plain elevation of 148 feet. The proposed excavation within the flood plain is approximately 2,500 cubic yards. The design has the flexibility to further adjust �Alipp- ;'` s these excavation volumes upward or downward. Prt r q_ WATER QUALITY FACILITIES The existing drainage channels through the site will maintain their alignment. There are no detention.basins on-site as directed by City staff. However, 2 water quality facilities will be constructed to remove 65%of the phosphorous from the site. The project needs to treat 6.89 acres'of impervious area. The total of the site is 16.8 acres. The proposed impervious area is 8.30 acres. There is 1.41 acres of f7. 'e F x x` existing impervious area. The net.area to be treated is 6.89 acres. There are 2 water quality ponds and 1 swale proposed.,The southerly pond.will treat 4.44 }`.� kw�E;1 -_acres of impervious area that is currently untreated and discharged on to the site being reviewed. The southerly pond will treat approximately 4.53 acres. The northerly pond will treat approximately 1.50--acres and the swale will treat 0.89 M+ �;f W� acres. VARIANCE FOR NUMBER OF VEHICULAR ACCESSES ' ' - :. ,a Code Section 18,108.070D:requires 2 access points for the first 100 units and 1 access point for each 100`additional parking spaces after the first 100 units. This project has 459 parking spaces requiring 3 additional driveway access points, '%1K for a total of 5 access points required. i0, X. s We request a variance,to this requirement; we-request a total-of two access points be provided for this.project. x2; '`1' S . We support the request for variance with these statements: V. 1. Due to the existing-adjacent development and topography, it is not feasible-to ka~ t � share access Points with otherproperties- 2. ro erties. 2. There are practical alternative access points available on the adjacent streets. The Main Street access is located at the edge of our property and near the rear of the left turn lane.,An other access points on'Main Street . Y Po would interfere with the function-of the left turn lane. The property's frontage on Hwy. 99 is near the signal with Main Street and in a congested - - 1 n• gay area which does not allow ad�uate traffic Patterns. The Oregon Department of Trans nation was contacted r - Transportation about keeping the existing access point, and we were informed that they would not approve access on Hwy. 99 for this `+ �` l ��i" rr ro ect. , P j NN i. v :.i��•, }}t./ l*aid :J�ry:_1 _ r Jerry Offer j �' .i December 17, 1992 City of Tigard t. :'_ Page 5 # 7 3. It is not possible to meet the access separation requirements in a practical ' X. way. MainStreet is a major collector with 100 feet minimum-separation^ '. required and Ash.Street is a minor collector with 30 feet minimum separation _ . W-1. X required. As discussed above, there are intersection and congestion concerns ray" at Main and Hwy, 99, and there are traffic hazard and control concerns at ' A; Ash Street which prevent the practical use of additional access points. 4. This:request is the minimum-variance required to provide adequate access , since there are no other practical locations available. i 5.

The discussion was cut short to accommodate the rest of your agenda and we agreed to attend the February meeting to continue the discussion. We have postponed that discussion for a couple of reasons. The NPO #3 agenda is full, and Council has asked staff to prepare a more detailed program for review. The Council discussed the proposed CIT concept, including the concerns raised by NPO #3 and 7 at their meeting on January 19 . Consensus of Council was to review the role and responsibilities of standing committees, direct staff to prepare a specific CIT program with a land use component, and review with Council in March. We have tentatively scheduled a discussion with your Chairs as the first item on your March 3 , 1993 agenda. Please call me if you have comments or questions.
