Draft Stormwater Master Plan Moving Forward to City Council
The city is developing its first modern Stormwater Master Plan focused on addressing areas of erosion within the
city. With no master plan since 1980, the cit-;has been forced to be reactive to stormwater issues and unable to plan
ahead for needed improvements.
Tigard's draft Stormwater Master Plan is focused on promoting healthy creeks and resilient and functional
stormwater management infrastructure. The plan recommends policies,programs,and capital improvements to
address erosion,water quality, and flooding.Tigard works to enhance the public drainage and creek systems to meet
public needs and to comply with strict water quality regulations set for the Tualatin River and its tributan•streams
by the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality(DEQ). Starting in June 2016,the city worked with residents,
business owners,partners and a consultant team to complete the master planning effort.
The draft Stormwater Master Plan is available for review on the City of Tigard website at: http://www.tigard-
or.gov/stormwater/

Tigard Police and OLCC Conduct Compliance Check in Tigard
One out of 12 businesses visited in Tigard on December 27th failed to pass an OLCC check for
alcohol sales to minors. The Tigard Police Department assisted the Oregon Liquor Control
Commission (OLCC) with the recent compliance check. This grant-funded effort consists of a team
of two Tigard Police officers and an OLCC inspector accompanying an eighteen-year-old volunteer.
The group visited the pre-selected establishments in Tigard, which either sell or serve alcohol.
Oregon Revised Statutes set strict guidelines for the OLCC regarding minor decoy operations at
businesses selling alcohol. Throughout the year, checks are conducted unannounced at randomly
selected businesses to ascertain compliance regarding the sale of alcohol to minors. Compliance
checks may also be initiated based upon complaints lodged vith the OLCC or local law
enforcement.
This recent alcohol sales check in Tigard demonstrates 91 percent compliance, which surpasses the
most recent statewide average. Historically, compliance rates in Tigard peaked as high as 100
percent (2016) and drew dismal compliance figures as low as 30 percent (2009).
One way police are working to combat the problem of underage drinking is to partner with
coalitions that help educate and support our community's youth in efforts to promote healthy and
substance-free lifestyles. Tigard Turns the Tide is one example. You can learn more about this
community coalition at vE-ww.tigardturnsthetide.org In addition, Tigard Police plan on continued
enforcement and additional compliance checks to reaffirm the importance to affected businesses
that the sale of alcohol to minors will not be tolerated.

Washington-County names housing director
Peter Wong Friday, December 29, 2017
Jill Smith starts Feb. 5; she is deputy director of health, housing and human services in
Clackamas County, and also has worked at Multnomah County's housing authority.
Jill Smith will be the next director of housing services for Washington County.
County Administrator Robert Davis announced her appointment from a field of candidates to succeed Val Valfre,
who retired Nov. 30 after nine years.
Smith, who starts Feb. 5, is no stranger to Portland metro housing agencies.
She has been deputy director of the Clackamas County Health, Housing and Human Services Department for 18
months. She worked nine years at Home Forward, Multnomah County's housing authority, as director of rent
assistance and then its chief operating officer.
She also was Section 8 manager for the Housing Authority of Salt Lake City, Utah, for seven years.
"Jill has a wealth of experience, which will allow her to combine her skills in administration and effective service
delivery to vulnerable populations with our ever-pressing need to develop and maintain affordable housing," Davis
said in a statement.
Washington County's agency combines rental assistance to low-income households through federally funded
programs with housing opportunities for low- and moderate-income households through financing and partnerships
with public and private agencies.
Valfre had led the agency on a permanent basis since January 2009, after several months as its interim director. He
had been its assistant director for four years, and also worked in housing in Tucson, Ariz., and the West Valley
Housing Authority in Dallas, Ore., west of Salem. Before then he was in the U.S. Air Force 24 years, retiring as a
lieutenant colonel.
Before his retirement on Nov. 30, Valfre was appointed to a vacancy on the Forest Grove City Council.

community events, are encouraged to apply for grants from the City of Tigard.

councilor who served from 2008 to 2016. A portion of the proceeds from the newly implemented marijuana tax will
fund the grant. Agencies that work with addictions, alcoholism and homelessness are encouraged to apply.
