2. STUDY S SSICK:
a. Review of Hearings Officer Final Order - CU 89-03: Council
reviewed the Final Order issued by the Hearings Officer concerning
a homeless shelter sponsored by Tigard Christian Ministries.
Concerns were expressed regarding Condition No. 6 which stipulated:
"In the event a guest is denied entrance after being invited to the
shelter, the supervisor shall detain that guest until the guest can
be removed by the Tigard Police Department and transported to a
secure area, away from the shelter. In no event shall a guest who
has been denied entrance after being invited to the shelter, be
allowed to leave the shelter except under the supervision and
control of the Tigard Police Department." Discussion followed over
the issue of obligating the Tigard Police Department to provide
security services to a private organization. It was also noted
that this could have some precedent-setting ramifications. After
discussion, legal counsel prepared wording for signature by the
Mayor which reflected Council consensus:
"Pursuant to the TMC 18.32, the Tigard City Council hereby requests
that the Hearings Officer amend her decision in regard to
Conditional Use CU 89-03 removing condition of approval No. 6.
In the alternative, Council hereby declares its intent to review
the Hearings Officer's decision if it is not amended as requested".
b. Uodate of MSTIP/2 - City Engineer advised the Washington County
Coordinating Ccmunittee met today concerning the MSI'IP/2 project and
funding request list. Consensus of the Coordinating Committee was
to recommend to their respective Councils a project list consisting
of $60,000,000 over a period of six years. He noted the
assessment rates would remain the same as were currently being
paid.
City Engineer distributed the MSTIP/2 project estimates with
projects, project description, and estimated cost listed. City
Engineer noted the Coordinating Committee would need to ]maw by
Page 1 - Council Minutes - July 10, 1989
July 24, 1989, if the City was in support of MSPIP/2. After
discussion, Council consensus was to postpone consideration of this
issue to the July 17, 1989, Council meeting.
C. Review of Agenda Item .2A,: Award Bid for Pactrust Local
Improvement District Contract - City Engineer advised that only two
bids were received for the Pactrust Local Improvement District

Construction for the "asphalt option," in the amount of
$1,476,120.65.
d. Review of Agenda Item No. 6: Amendment to the Noise Ordinance-
Community Development Director updated Council on the Noise
Ordinance issue. He noted citizens' canwnts included concerns
with existing conditions which would not conform to the new
wording. Staff reconmerided that existing conditions be treated as
non-conforming uses. Coimmmity Developmient Director noted further
review was needed on additional issues; he recommended postponing
Council action on the Noise Ordinance amendment.
e. Tigard Market Place Issues - Community Development Director
reviewed the problems which were being addressed at the request of
neighbors of the Tigard Market Place shopping center. The
following issues were reviewed:
o The developer will install additional signs noting that
trucks may not travel behind the building during certain
hours. These signs will be placed so there would be ample
warning to the trucks before they are committed to driving
behind the building.
o The developer has notified maintenance contractors that street
sweeping was to be done during appropriate hours.
o Ccnm=ty Development Director advised a letter was being
sent to residents outlinuxq progress on their concerns.
Problems should be documented by the residents by calling the
Police Department or City staff when a violation occurs.
o Councilor Eadon reiterated it was her understanding that no
building permits would be issued for this development until
the problems were resolved. Council requested receipt of a
copy of the letters being sent to the neighbors by next week.
f. Additional Agenda Review:

BULMMGAM NPO A
A reecumwndation by the Planning Cmmission to amend the Transportation
Comprehensive Plan Map. The Ash Avenue connection to be modified to
indicate a connection fro¢n the intersection of SW Walnut and Pacific
Highway to Scoffins. An option shall be preserved to connect Ash/Hill
to the Ash Street extension with a "T" intersection. The alignment of
SW Burnham will be modified to intersect SW Main Street opposite SW
Tigard. The realignment of SW Burnham will intersect the existing
Burnham right-of-way at a point south of 9185 SW Burnham. The realigned
portion will replace the existing portion of Burnham as the minor
collector route. LOCATION: ASH AVENUE EXTENSION between SW Pacific
Highway at Walnut and SW Scoffins. (WCIM 2S1 2BD, 2S1 2AC, 2S1 2CA, 2S1
Ic Page 3 - Council Minutes - July 10, 1989
2DB, 2S1 2AD, & 2S1 2AA) . BURNHAM/TIGARD RFALIGNME r - between SW Main
Street at Tigard and the existing right-of-way of SW Burnham Street at a
point south of 9185 SW Burnham. (WCIM 2S1 2AS & 2S1 2AD) .
a. Public hearing was opened.
b. Declarations or challenges: Councilor Eadon advised she had had
extensive conversations with a property owner in the Ash Avenue
area; however, she advised that this would not preclude an
iulmrtial decision by her.
Mayor Edwards also noted he had conversations concerning this
issue and also believed he would be impartial in making a decision.
Senior Planner Newton summarized this agenda item. 'Ihe City Center
Development Plan and Report contained a number of recoamended
street and traffic projects designed to improve access and
circulation to and through the City Center. In order to construct
the Ash Avenue extension and realign a portion of SW Burnham
Street, a modification to the Comprehensive Plan Transportation Map
was necessary.
A public hearing was held on June 20, 1989, before the Planning
Commission to consider the proposed modifications. By unanimous
vote (5-0) , the Commission voted to forward CPA 89-06 to City
Council recomnending ' approval of the Ash connection from
Walnut/Pacific Highway to the Hunziker/Hall intersection with a
strong recc mnendation that the Ash/Hill connection be preserved as
an option for the neighborhood to connect the extension. The
Commission also recc mTended that the Tigard/Burnham realignment be
approved.
City Engineer reviewed the transportation issues noting the City
Center Development Plan recommended additional access to the
downtown if the Plan was to be implemented. The goal was set to
provide alternative routes which would not always require travel on
99W. Also of concern was to avoid encouragement of travel through
residential areas as a throughway which would create major traffic
in residential areas. It would be desirable to establish a grid-
like system.
C. Public Testimony:
Proponents - Mere were none.
�ponents
o Gloria Johnson, 9300 SW Hill Street, Tigard, Oregon advised
she was a 14 year resident of the City of Tigard. She noted
concerns about livability if her street was directly connected
to Pacific Highway. She said the CoaWrehensive Plan should
protect existing residential ares. She noted she was
Page 4 - Council Minutes - July 10, 1989
concerned that increased access to the neighborhood would also
result in an increased crime problem.
o Ken Doherty, 13265 SW Ash Avenue, Tigard, Oregon 97223,
testified he was concerned with the proposal noting traffic
had already increased significantly. He said he was
concerned with the protection of the neighborhood.
o K. V. Allison, 11830 SW Walnut, Tigard, Oregon, protested the
connection of Walnut to Ash. He noted the potential
aligrments would take out portions of either a four Alex or a
ten Alex of the Pacific Village Apartments which he owned. He
noted cost to align the streets through his area would be
excessive with several million dollars needed for property
purchase alone. Mr. Allison questioned the need for the
realignment noting that commercial uses have been moving out
of the downtown area and, therefore, he could not see the
benefit of enhanced transportation routes.
Mr. Allison advised the CPA would cause additional problems to
property owners in the area who were attempting to sell their
property.
Mayor Edwards asked City Engineer if routes had been established
and if Mr. Allison's complexes would be in the path of the roadway.
City Engineer responded that routes had been sketched as "worst
and best" case scenarios. Depending on the alignment chosen, it
was a possibility that the four-plex building owned by Mr. Allison
may be in the needed right-of-way.
Mayor then explained to Mr. Allison this process was implemented in
order to complement the Development Plan which was being reviewed
by Council. He noted there were problems with the downtown area,
and the Plan was an attempt to bring business back to the downtown
area by enhancing the transportation system.
o Mary Dorman, Planning Consultant for the White Ccanpany, 101
East 8th Street, Vancouver, WA, advised she was testifying on
behalf of Property Management Services, Inc. (PMSI) . PMSI
represented the general partners and managers for the King's
Choice apartment complex located off of Pacific Highway and
Walnut Street.
She advised the complex consisted of 70 apartment units which
were over 20 years old. The complex was purchased by PMSI in
1986; they have an interest in continuing ownership and
management of this project. She advised PMSI became aware of
this issue just recently which was why they did not
participate at the Planning Commission level.
Page 5 - Council Minutes - July 10, 1989
Ms. Dorman noted economic viability of the property was
questionable should the roadway impact the apartments in any
way. She noted because they were older units and generally
housed an older population with a lower than average income,
the Council should take into consideration the housing stock
in the community.
She also noted the possibility that PMSI would be asked to
participate in an assessment for road improvements which would
have no positive impact for their apartments.
Accompanying Ms. Dorman was Gary O'Connell representing PMSI
and the residents of the apart mmt units. He noted he was
concerned with the proposed routes as sketched which would
bisect this property.
Mr. O'Connell reviewed haw the various routes would affect
their property and noted the livability/desirability of the
units would be affected. Further, the investment future was
difficult to determine for these units until it was ]mown
exactly what the City planned to do with this property. He
noted the investment partners would probably look to sell
this property within 7 to 10 years, but this issue put a cloud
on the property.
In response to some questions, City Engineer clarified that
the road was designated as a major collector which would be
generally three lanes; that is, two travel lanes with a center
turn lane.
o Jeff Johnson, 13140 SW Ash Street, Tigard, OR 97223,
testified he had been a resident at his present address for
two-and-a-half years but had also resided in the neighborhood
in another home prior to this. He advised the approximately
30 neighbors had met on July 9, to discuss this issue and
Mr. Johanson was testifying on their behalf.
Mr. Johnson noted the neighborhood did not receive formal
notice of the CPA public hearings although he acknowledged
notification was given as required in the City Code. He
rec=iended the City should consider better ways to
disseminate information to parties who will be affected.
Further, Mr. Johnson advised he disliked the format of the
public notice; he felt it did not clearly detail what
aligrmients were to be considered by Council.
He suggested the Comprehensive Plan Amendment was premature in
the economic development effort for the downtown area. He
said it was a dangerous assumption to build the roads first
since there had been no quantifications established with
regard to traffic and shopping patterns of the neighborhood.
Page 6 - Council Minutes - July 10, 1989
_ Mr. Johnson advised of his anger about the current speed of
traffic on Ash Avenue; he placed responsibility for most of
the problems on the residents of the Philadelphia Apartments.
The neighborhood was concerned that the proposed Ash Avenue
extension would create an increase in the traffic problem.
Mr. Johnson said he believed there would be an increase in
crime if the area became easily accessible.
He reported the Ash Avenue extension would not relieve Highway
99 traffic congestion since local people presently use
neighborhood streets to avoid using Hwy. 99. The extension
would represent no benefit to the neighborhood. In response
to a question by Councilor Eadon, Mr. Johnson advised that the
option to extend Ash would aggravate an already unacceptable
plan.
Mr. Johnson advised the neighborhood bad not taken any
position on the Burnham Street portion of the CPA proposal.
In response to a question from Councilor Schwartz, wherein it
was proposed that a transportation loop be provided which
would bypass the neighborhood, Mr. Johnson advised some
residents were very much against such a proposal.
o Dale Deharpport, 6655 SW 158th Avenue, Beaverton, Oregon,
testified he owned one-and-three-quarters of an acre
(undeveloped) in the area which would be affected by the
proposed road alignment. Mr. Deharpport advised that while he
recognized the City's efforts to improve the downtown, his
property values would decrease.
There was discussion on whether this hearing was a review of
a quasi-judicial or legislative matter. City Attorney advised
that the appropriate notice for a quasi-judicial hearing had
been given by the City of Tigard.
Mr. Deharpport advised the proposed CPA would put a cloud on
his property making it difficult to market. He noted the
funding for improvements to the da&*,mm area had not been
determined. He had asked if the proposed CPA was placed on
the transportation map, would the change be removed if it was
determined that funds were not available?
In response to this question, Ccam unity Development Director
advised if the CPA were to be approved tonight, it would
represent the fact that Council had decided it was a good
idea. If it was a good idea now, it would probably always be
a good idea -- funding would not necessarily be the
determining factor of whether the Transportation Map should be
so marked. Eventually, the Council may have to reconsider the
transportation route if it was determined the road would not
be feasible. The City, in :ander to preserve the corridors for
.
Ar-.
Page 7 - Council Minutes - July 10, 1989
the roads, was required to place the CPAs on the
Transportation Map. This was consistent with the
recommendations proposed in the Development Plan which had
been received by Council.
Mr. Deharpport noted his concern with continuing to be
responsible for tax payments on this property when it was not
marketable.
o Jerry Scott, 9033 SW Burnham, Tigard, Oregon, advised he
awned cmmiercial property which appeared to be directly in the
path of the proposed road alignment. He asked if there had
been any consideration to moving street alignment so it would
go through empty property rather than eliminating buildings.
Ccmmnxnity Development Director advised the determination of
the best alignment would be considered at a future date.
o Robert Bell of 14970 SW 150th, Tigard, Oregon, testified he
was representing the United Methodist Church. Mr. Bell
introduced Mr. Weber, a member of Board of Trustees of the
United Methodist Church. Mr Bell advised almost any
configuration of the Walnut\Ash connection would affect the
function of the Church. He requested the City consider a
configuration which would not affect their parking lot; they
were presently looking at additional parking needs.
Mr. Weber noted good relationships with the neighbors
surrounding the church; they were all constricted on parking
space. He advised the proposed CPA would impact these
properties in a negative way and urged the Council not to put
the Walnut\Ash connection through.
o Jeff Graham, 13290 SW Ash Drive, Tigard, Oregon 97223, said
he realized that the CPA was conceptual, but felt that once
placed on the Map, it was more likely to becam a reality. He
cited previous testimony from Mr. Johnson and whether answers
had been given concerning whether studies had completed on
traffic patters. Cam=uty Development Director outlined the
studies which had been conducted for the City Center Plan Task
Force for their work on the Development Plan. He noted that
market, traffic, arra design studies had been completed.
Mr. Graham noted he was concerned about the notification
process. He said the City should take the extra steps to
notify those persons who would be affected. He advised that
because of the amount of opposition, Council would should
reconsider the proposal. He also noted the NPO had not
discussed this issue thoroughly.
o Rick Brattain, 13185 Ash Drive, Tigard, Oregon 97223.
Mr. Brattain raised concerns about urban renewal and noted
the hones in this area were all nice haemes. The Mayor
`! Page 8 - Council Minutes - July 10, 1989
clarified for Mr. Brattain that the urban renewal was not for
the neighborhood but for the downtown area. The urban
renewal issue was not before Council at this time.
o Joe Gehring, 13215 SW Ash Drive, Tigard, Oregon 97223,
advised he deferred his testimony time to Chuck Woodard.
o Chuck Woodard, 10215 SW Main Street, Tigard, Oregon 97223,
disagreed with the realignments as proposed in the CPA. He
also objected to the map contained in the notice where a
specific route was not shown. Mr. Woodard advised he attended
the Planning Commission hearing. He questioned the process of
a hearing before Planning Ccnunission when no conclusions could
be reached. Now, the hearing was before Council; he said this
presented a hardship on citizens by requiring them to testify
at two separate meetings.
Mr. Woodard questioned the traffic studies in that they did
not detail the vehicle destinations. He noted he had taken
counts over 17 days with regard to travel on Burnham to Main
Street. Only one car had traveled from Burnham directly to
Tigard Street; therefore, he questioned the need for the
proposed realigmaent.
Mr. Woodard also referred to his previous testimony urging
preservation of buildings in the downtown whist. were of
historical significance.
He advised the realignment proposals would not be an
improvement and recommended against Council implementation of
the Comprehensive Plan Amendments.
Mayor noted the following letters had been received into the record
concerning the coniprehensive Plan Amendment:
Letter dated July 10, 1989, from Jerry and Kris McBath, 13115
SW Ash Drive, Tigard, Oregon;
Letter dated July 6, 1989, from Mrs. Lois Ganoe, 13165 SW Ash
Drive, Tigard, Oregon 97223;
Letter received July 10, 1989 from Verna Randall, 13195 SW
Ash Drive, Tigard, Oregon 97223; and
Letter dated July 7, 1989, Judy Burton Carbin, 13120 SW Ash
Avenue, Tigard, Oregon 97223.
d. Recommendation by camunity Development Director: He reviewed the
concerns with the adequate public notice and advised this would be
reviewed for better notification in the future. He restated the
Planning C.camnission ration that the Ash connection not go
Page 9 - Council Minutes - July 10, 1989
through at this time, but leave the connection on the Map as a
future option.
He noted the streets would not be constructed immediately;
funding for the Downtown Development Plan would be considered by
the voters in November. He advised the CPA was a conceptual
proposal for the future. Once the conceptual idea was on paper
the next step would be to determine the direct routes. He advised
that no environmental or cost/benefit studies had been done, but
traffic studies in the area had been performed. Sketches had been
prepared outlining plausible scenarios for street locations. He
agreed that because of the potential street alignments, affected
property may be more difficult to market. The Tigard
Street/Burnham Street realignment was proposed to make it easier to
get through the downtown area. Canmmnity Development Director
outlined the potential options before Council:
1. Uphold the Planning Commission recommendation and direct staff
to prepare a Final order for adoption on July 24, 1989.
2. Uphold the Planning Commission recommendation on the
Burnham/Tigard realignment, but continue action on the Ash
Avenue proposal to a later date and direct staff to proceed
with further analysis to determine a more exact alignment for
the Ash Avenue connection.
3. Postpone a decision to allow staff more time to work with the
neighbors to develop more specific alignments.
d. Council Comments:
Councilor Schwartz commended the staff's work and their endeavor to
appease all parties. He also noted the amount of work which had
been performed by the City Center Plan Task Force. Councilor
Schwartz said the downtown area was deteriorating and that
significant commercial businesses such as Albertson's and Payless
had left the area. He advised the problem for these enterprises
was with access — people cannot easily get in and out of the
downtown area. Presently, no businesses were wanting to locate in
the downtown because of the access problems. He advised that
Council has looked at this area and the consensus over the last
several years has been that something must be done to revitalize
the downtown area.
Councilor Schwartz explained that Council selected the alternative
of proposing an urban renewal district. Urban renewal, he
acknowledged, was unsuccessfully proposed to the voters a few years
ago. Council reviewed why this proposal had been unsuccessful; a
thorough study of the area has been performed in preparation of a
presentation to the voters.
Page 10 - Council Minutes - July 10, 1989
Councilor Schwartz advised that because of the issues raised by
residents tonight, he was not prepared to make a decision at this
time. He said he would like to review the CPA proposal and work
towards a "win-win" situation for the City and for the downtown
merchants.
Councilor Johnson advised access and circulation to the downtown
area must be preserved. There was a need for citizens to travel
through and around the City of Tigard. She explained that dead-end
streets were not the answer as they only added to the problem
because other roads had to carry the extra share of traffic. She
noted she was prepared to support the Planning Ccmmi,ssion decision
but advised she was willing to meet with neighbors to discuss their
concerns.
Councilor Eadon noted appreciation for the public testimony. She
said traffic issues had been a constant concern over the
years. Council was charged with the difficult task of identifying
transportation options which look to the future. She agreed the
Comprehensive Plan Amendment proposal was vague; however, once
concepts were provided, the City could begin to define the issues
in more detail.
Councilor Eadon reminded those present of the City's obligation to
reimburse landowners for their property if it was needed for public
improvements.
She advised she was in favor of upholding the Planning Commission
decision, but agreed that more clarification and discussion on the
Ash Street connection would be beneficial.
Councilor Kasten noted his concern over the slowly deteriorating
downtown area. He noted Council was attempting to create a plan to
revitalize the area; traffic issues were a major portion of that
plan. The question of which should came first -- traffic plan
implementation or ccmnercial development -- was a question which
should be discussed. He noted he was also concerned about
individual property owners and the hardship this CPA may be to
them. He advised he would support the postponement of a decision
to allow an opportunity to meet with concerned parties.
Mayor Edwards agreed with the comments made by the Councilors. He
noted revitalization of the core area was needed to better
distribute the tax burden and to maintain high-quality livability
in Tigard. He noted he had lived in the community for many years
and the urban renewal proposal, in his opinion, would be of benefit
to the City of Tigard. He advised he felt an earlier, similar
effort was defeated because of lack of confidence and understanding
of the City Council at that time. He advised that this Council had
been working to build credibility and to advise citizens of exactly
what was being proposed in the urban renewal effort. Because of
this desire, he also favored not going forward with the approval
Page 11 - Council Minutes - July lo, 1989
e
of the Conprehensive Plan Amendment at this time. He would prefer
to take additional time to talk with neighbors and property owners
about transportation problems to discover solutions acceptable to
all parties.
Councilor Eadon commented on the testimony noting problems with the
public notice procedures. She asked that future notices on this
issue be sent to those persons who had testified at this hearing as
well as the Planning Commission hearing.
After discussion, Council consensus was to keep the public hearing
open and continue it to August 21, 1989.
Council recessed at 9:22 p.m.
Council reconvened at 9:30 p.m.

F`. 7. CCNTINUATICH OF PUBLIC HFARIM - ANS To 'IIS TIGA10 MUNICIPAL 00DE
(M6E), C{ WTE R 7.40 (NDISE).
Amendments to the noise ordinance provisions of the TIC.
a. Public hearing was continued from the June 12, 1989 City Council
meeting.
b. Public Testimony:
o James Hart, 10255 SW Hill View Street, Tigard, Oregon 97223,
advised he did not think staff had addressed the issues as had
been outlined at the previous hearing. He advised the
ordinance was not as enco¢Vassing or as enforceable as he
would like to see it. He asked for more study including
review of ordinances being enforced by other jurisdictions.
Mr. Hart said he submitted the proposed Tigard ordinance to
Paul Herman of the City of Portland who was knowledgeable on
noise issues. Mr. Hart submitted the written cents from
Mr. Paul Herman, Noise Control Officer for the City of
Portland. (This document has been filed with the Council
packet material).
o Mr. Francis Brittain, 10285 SW Hill View, Tigard, Oregon
97223, advised he had concerns with noise from the Tigard
Market Place. Community Development Director, at the request
Page 12 - Council Minutes - July 10, 1989
of City Council, outlined the progress in addressing several
problems with the Tigard Market Place:
o Developer was aware of the areas of concern with
landscaping and would be working on these issues-
0 Condensers on the roof have been moved inside. Noise
levels have been tested, but written results have not yet
been received of those tests.
o Improved signage has been posted to advise truck drivers
they were not to travel behind the building during posted
hours.
o Two parking lot lights still require shielding-
Noise Noise from the Public Address system was a problem at
times. The developer would be talking to individual
tenants on this concern.
o Problems with street sweepers and garbage trucks working
before or after allowed hours of operation should be
reported directly to the City by calling the City
Administrator, Cammnity Development Director, or the
Police Department. City Administrator advised, if
possible, a license vehicle should be wri ten do nn and and on of the
offendiword passed
ng
along to City staff.
Mr. Hart noted that one of the problems was the fact that an
issue would be taken care of only to have the issue come up
again. Discussion followed. The Mayor acknowledged the
frustration recurrence of problems; however, he advised that
no new building permits for the development would be issued
until the issues had been resolved. He also reported that
the City would be issuing citations and fining
perpetrators.
Council consensus was to continue the public hearing to
August 14, 1989.
8. PUBLIC MMdG - VACATICU OF RIGHT-OF-IWAY - A PCSRTICN OF SW 933RD AVENUE
AND SW MAPLIfEAF SnZEEr
Consideration of a proposed vacation of a portion of SW 93rd and SW
Mapleleaf Street, in the City of Tigard, Washington County,, Oregon. A
petition for the above-proposed vacation, meeting all signature
requirements, was filed with the City of Tigard on May 18, 1989- The
petition was signed and submitted by the Tramiel Craw CmTpany.
a. Public hearing was opened.
Page 13 - Council Minutes - July 10, 1989
t
b. There were no declarations or challenges.
C. Sm ation by Ccmmmnity Development Director:
On May 22, 1989, Council accepted a ccmpleted vacation petition
from the Trammel Craw Company which proposed a vacation of portions
of SW 93rd Avenue and SW Mapleleaf Street. Vacation proceedings
were initiated and a public hearing was set for July 10, 1989- The
purpose of the vacation was to accommodate the development of the
Lincoln V office building and parking structure which includes the
realignment and inprovement of SW 93rd Avenue.
Cc enmity Development Director reviewed the location of the
property as illustrated on a map displayed for Council view. He
advised the ordinance stipulated that the vacation would not be
recorded with the County Records Division until all right-of-way
