MEMORANDUM
CITY OF TIGARD
TO: Pat Reilly May 13, 1992
FROM: Randy Wooley
SUBJECT: - Bull Mountain Summit Estates
A number of complaints have been received about the Bull Mountain
Summit Estates subdivision projects, located between Fern Street
and Bull Mountain Road. Currently, all work has stopped on the
PP
projects and the owner, Seiyu, is reportedly seeking a buyer for
the property.
The Engineering Department has sent a letter to Seiyu establishing
deadlines for resolving various problems . Erosion control measures
must be restored on the project immediately. Stockpiling of
construction equipment and materials on the site must be curtailed
by May 22nd, unless actual construction is resumed. A plan to
restrict access to the .site, in order to reduce vandalism and other
illegal activities, must be in place by June 12th. Completion of
off-site improvements to SW 135th Avenue, between the site and
Walnut Street, must be completed by July 31st or, alternatively, SW
135th must be repaired and restored to the standard that existed
prior to Seiyu' s. construction activities .
The City holds a bond which can be used, if necessary, to restore
135th Avenue and to address erosion control problems . The other
items are code violations and can be pursued through the civil
infraction process, if necessary.
Prior to recording the plat, Seiyu or its successors will be
required to complete all improvements or bond to assure their
completion. Without a recorded plat, they cannot sell lots nor
receive building permits .
We chose July 31st as the deadline for work on 135th for two
reasons'. First, it provides sufficient time for Seiyu to hire a
contractor and complete the work. Second, it leaves sufficient
time for the City to file against the bond and complete street
restoration before winter, if necessary.
Based on inquiries we have received, it appears that there are
prospective buyers interested in finishing the subdivision. We
would prefer to see the improvements completed by a new owner, but
we are prepared to take action against the Seiyu bond to address
problems if necessary.

RE- NEU COMMUNITY COMMERCIRL DISTRICT
Council Members,
NPO 47 endorses the new Community Commercial district. Our previous
written testimony to the Planning Commission on this new commercial
district is our collective view on it and its city-eaide application.
Ue submit our previous written testimony on .this new district to the
Council at the invitation of planning staff.
Our previous exhibit on possible shopping center build-outs in this new
district warrants mention here. Our exhibit demonstrates the impact of
grocery store and general retail store size on the variety of goods and
services possible at one location.
Ue note that the plan and ordinance language for this new district now
excludes the conditional use process to enlarge grocery store size to
more than 40,000 sq ft gfa or general retail store size to more than
10,000 sq ft gfa.

RE: NEU COMMUNITY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT
Commissioners,
NPO #7 endorses the new Community Commercial district. However, we
advocate additional lints 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 25X of site gross acres.
Ue now agree with Mssrs. Bewersdorff and Offer that this commercial
district could be compatible with residential areas at major collector-
major collector intersections. Ue now understand that this district
would be smaller than 8 acres at sone sites to be compatible with
surrounding residential areas. Ue concede that this district could
better serve sone residential areas from sites at sone major collector-
major collector intersections.
Ue still argue that this commercial district should include loss 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
utth residential areas. Low limits on gross floor area for single
stores would:
1 > Soften storefronts within residential areas;
3) Promote stores that provide convenience shopping for nearby
residents (see Matt Marcott exhibit>;
3> Limit stores that provide comparison shopping for general
consumers; and
1) Promote a variety of goods and services at one location <see
Shopping Center Build-out exhibit).
•
Page 2
Ue also argue that this district should exclude the conditional use
process to raise a limit on single store gross floor area. It is
right of residents to set limits on single store gfa now (versus
hearings officers later) to ensure stores would be compatibles
their neighborhoods.
0
find we still argue that this district should include a limit on total
commercial gross floor area to promote sone civic use (branch library)
within residential areas. Ue suggest a limit on total commercial gfa
equal to typical site coverage of one-story retail build-out.
Respectfully.

Dear Jerry,
I realize you and your staff have already developed your final
proposal for the new Community Commercial District. However, I
would appreciate it if you would consider the following points. I have
developed on this matter. They may be of some assistance in
developing future recommendations regarding the possible
application of this new zone.
ORIGINAL INTENT OF NEIGHBORHOOD COMMERCIAL
In determining the requirements for a supermarket within the newly
proposed Community Commercial District, you should consider the
reasoning for including supermarkets as a permitted use within this
zone. The current Neighborhood Commercial zoning, which has
always allowed for neighborhood oriented grocery stores, is
considered outdated as it relates to supermarkets, due to the size
limitations imposed. Therefore, in order for the City of Tigard to
allow for neighborhood oriented grocery stores, they have 3 options:
1) increase the, size of food stores allowed under Neighborhood
Beaverton West S11 re - - Murrayhill Sandy

The economic feasibility of a 25,000 sq. ft. or smaller store can be
demonstrated by the number of those in operation today or in various
stages of development. The average Thriftway store is 27,800 sq. O
ft.. The mean size, however, is only 24,150 sq. ft.. We are Curr
in negotiation for sites to construct stores of 13,500 sq. ft
Hollywood District ), 22-24,000 sq. ft. ( SW Miller and Barn
27,000 sq.ft. ( Sellwood ). We also build very large supermarkets
where the location allows ( Bales Milltowner. 44,000 sq. ft.,
Wilsonville: 46,000 sq. ft. and are currently considering a 46,000 sq.
ft. store in the Tualatin area ).
Safeway currently operates many stores between the 22,000 sq. ft.
and 30,000 sq. ft. ( Cedar Hills, Cedar Mill, 185th & TV HWY, 13th &
SW Jefferson, Hall & Pacific HWY plus many others).
Sentry Stores Inc. currently operates 67 stores in Oregon. All but 14
of these stores are less than 25,000 sq. ft. in size. They market
themselves as being "Just Your Size" and target neighborhood areas.
As for a 25,000 sq. ft. stores ability to satisfy the needs of today's
consumers, I would again point to the number of these stores in
operation today. It would be impossible for this many stores to be
operating and not be satisfying consumers needs. There are
approximately 2 supermarkets in Oregon under 25,000 sq. ft. for
every one supermarket between 35,000 sq. ft. and 40,000 sq. ft..
I can, as a businessman, appreciate the desire to build larger
supermarkets. They pull customers from a much greater distance
and can be extremely profitable. However, that does not negate
the fact that these super large stores are still best suited
for General Commercial Districts where they have operated
for years.
POSSIBLE COURSE OF ACTION
If there is any question what size supermarket to allow in
Community Commercial, I would suggest initially allowing for a
25,000 sq. ft. store. If this limitation does not promote the
development of supermarkets in a timeframe which corresponds
Commercial 2) allow General Commercial zoning in residential areas
3) create a new commercial zone which would allow for today's
neighborhood supermarkets. If a new zone is developed, the originO
intent of Neighborhood Commercial, as it relates to grocery
should be adopted.
When NC was developed it was intended to allow for neighborhood
grocery stores ( Ron's Metzger Grocery Store). At that time the
grocery industry was building stores ranging in size from
approximately 2,500 sq. ft. up to 25,000 sq.ft.,the lower end of
the spectrum being allowed in "neighborhood areas". This
protected neighborhoods from the development of unnecessarily
large commercial operations. Times however, have changed. The
g Pe g
grocery industry is now building stores which range in size from
15,000 sq. ft. to 50,000 ( even larger for warehouse stores).
Today,if the City of Tigard desires to have grocery stores built in
neighborhood areas, they must allow for larger stores
than are permitted under Neighborhood Commercial. The question is,
how large. In determining this, the original intent of protecting the
neighborhoods from large commercial developments should not be
disregarded. The new Community Commercial should again allow for
the lower end of the spectrum _of current supermarket sizes as
did the original Neighborhood Commercial. This would suggest a
store of no larger than 25,000 sq.ft.. ' If adopted, this limitation
in size would protect our neighborhoods livability for
future generations as the limitation in size established in
Neighborhood Commercial has in the past.
VIABILITY OF A 25,000 sq. ft. SUPERMARKET
The new Community Commercial District should allow for a size
limitation which would allow a neighborhood grocery store to be a
viable ooperation while still protecting Tigard's residential areas.
We should define viability as both economically feasible and having
the ability to satisfy the needs of today's consumers.
with the needs of residents ( not simply the needs of certain sectors
of the grocery industry), then the limitation on square footage could
be increased. This will not happen however. Prior to any need
arising, you will see intense competition from our industry for
with a 25,000 sq. ft. limitation. If, on the other hand, you be '
allowing a commercial development of 40,000 sq. ft. within
(W
neighborhood areas and it is determined, as I am sure it will be, that
these large stores are still best suited for General Commercial
areas, it will be too late to remedy the situation by reducing the
allowable square footage. One or more of Tigard's neighborhoods
will already have been burdened by unnecessarily large commercial
operations. '
The development of a Community Commercial District is an
extremely important issue which will have a lasting impact on many
of Tigard's neighborhoods. The type of approach outlined above will
insure the least impact on our neighborhoods livability to
accomplish the goals of the Community Commercial District.
Thank you for taking the time to consider these points. If you have
any questions, please feel free to contact me at (503)626-6463.
Please keep me informed.
