APPLICATION NARRATIVE OCT 2 7 2016
Property: 25630 SW 79th Avenue, Tigard, Oregon CITY OF TIGARD
Legal: 2S112CD02001 PLANNING/ENGINEERING
Zoning: R-12 Medium Density Residential
Land Use Application: Land Partition
18.390.040 Type II Procedure
A.Pre-application conference.A pre-application conference is required for Type II actions.Pre-application
conference requirements and procedures are set forth in 18.390.080.0.
Response: There was a pre-application conference July 26, 2016(PRE APP20'6-0041). The applicant was
advised that partitions were required to meet the minimum density of 80%of the maximum density and
therefore the applicant must apply for a subdivision. Consulting with METRO and reviewing the
requirements for housing capacity the applicant does not believe that partitions must meet the minimum
density requirements.A partition creates additional lots that if they meet dimensional requirements can
be further divided. In this particular case an existing house footprint and location would preclude
further division of its proposed parcel until such time that the house were removed.
B. Application requirements.
1.Application forms. Type II applications shall be made on forms provided by the director as provided
by 18.390.080.E.1.
Response: within the list of applications under the Type II is land partition.
2. Submittal information.The application shall:
a. Include the information requested on the application form;
Response: The application form has been filled out
b.Address the relevant criteria in sufficient detail for review and action;
Response: This narrative provides discussion of relevant criteria
c. Be accompanied by the required fee;
Response:A check for the fee amount is tendered with the application
d. Include two sets of pre-stamped and pre-addressed envelopes for all property owners of record
as specified in subsection C of this section. The records of the Washington County Department
of Assessment and Taxation are the official records for determining ownership. The applicant
shall demonstrate that the most current assessment records have been used to produce the notice
list;
Response: two set of stamped addressed envelopes are included with this application.
e. Include an impact study.The impact study shall quantify the effect of the development on public
facilities and services. The study shall address, at a minimum,the transportation system, including
bikeways,the drainage system,the parks system,the water system,the sewer system, and the noise
impacts of the development. For each public facility system and type of impact,the study shall propose
improvements necessary to meet city standards and to minimize the impact of the development on the
public at large, public facilities systems, and affected private property users. In situations where the
community development code requires the dedication of real property interests, the applicant shall
either specifically concur with the dedication requirements, or provide evidence which supports the
conclusion that the real property dedication requirement is not roughly proportional to the projected
impacts of the development.
Response:
Transportation System:SW 79th Avenue is a City paved and curbed street within a right-of-way of varying
width.Along the subject property the half street width is 20 feet and in other areas it is 30 feet. No
sidewalks are along the frontage. This project would add only approximately 20-trips per day, which
would not be a significant impact to the street.A driveway would be provided for the two rear parcels
and be at a location with adequate sight distance in both directions. There is an existing bike path on the
property side of SW 79'Avenue. A sidewalk could be built along the frontage to improve the pedestrian
walkability.A 10 foot dedication would increase SW 79th Avenue to 60 feet along the frontage.
Drainage system:there is an existing public storm system in SW 79th and an onsite infiltration test has
been performed that illustrates that on-site disposal of storm water is an alternative solution for
disposal. No improvement is needed
Parks: To the southwest is Cook Park and is the closest City Park to the property at approximately one
mile away. The Durham City Park is closer, but outside the City. Fanno Park is approximately 1 'a miles to
the north. This is a small development and no improvements are needed
Water:A public waterline is found in SW 79'Avenue and currently services the existing house on the
subject property. No upgrade of the system is justified unless the Fire Marshall requires an additional fire
hydrant
Sewer System:A gravity 8-inch sanitary sewer is in SW 79th and has a service lateral to the property. New
services will be required to serve the new parcels.
Noise impacts: This is a three lot residential partition and adds two additional parcels. There will be little
noise impact to the neighborhood as a result of this partition.
ACCESS 18.705 & 18.765
Table 18-705.1 outlines the vehicular access and egress for single family units.
Response: There is an existing driveway access for the existing house and that access will remain.A 20-
foot common access easement is proposed with a 10-12 foot pavement width for access to the two rear
parcels, which is consistent with the Table.
Chapter 18765 off street parking and loading requirements
Response:the driveway access to the two rear parcels will be constructed to the City standards with
adequate space on each parcel for off-street parking either in a garage or on a paved surface. The
existing house has an existing driveway and garage that currently meets the required parking code
RESIDENTIAL DENSITY CALCULATIONS Chapter 18.715
Response:
Total Area=41,858 sq ft—20%for dedication=8372 sq ft/sq ft/3050=11 units maximum
80%of 10.98=8.78 or 9 units
A future street plan has been prepared to demonstrate how the proposed 3-lot partition could achieve
the required density. The applicant finds that Title 1 of METRO is met by showing how the density could
be met. The location of the existing house and orientation and shape of the property preclude a
subdivision at this time.
SPECIAL SETBACKS Chapter 18.730
Response:the site plan illustrates the side yard setbacks of 10 feet for flag lots and the other required
setbacks for the R-12 zone.
FLAG LOT BUILDING HEIGHT PROVISIONS Chapter 18.745
Response:No building plans are included in this application. When building permits are submitted the
maximum height per the current code will apply.
STREET TREES AND PARKING LOT TREES Chapter 18.745 and 18.765
The minimum number of required street trees shall be determined by dividing the liner amount of street
frontage within or adjacent to the site by 40 feet.
Response: The frontage is 92.18 feet/40 feet=2.3 trees. Two (2)street trees are required.
CLEAN WATER SERVICES(CWS) Service provider letter
Response:A request has been sent to CWS and answered that there are no sensitive areas.A copy of this
letter is included in the application.
URBAN FORESTRY PLAN Chapter 18.790.030C and "tree canopy requirements"
Response:A certified arborist has prepared a tree inventory for the site. The report finds 11 trees of
varying species ranging from 9"to 31"in diameter. At this time no buildings are proposed and a forestry
plan cannot be effective be made until building plans for the vacant parcels have been determined.
PRESERVATION OF EXISTING TREES Chapter 18.790.050
Response:At this time all the existing trees will be preserved. In the future with the building permit phase
trees that are in the actual building envelope will have to be removed and others retained per the
recommendations of a certified arborist.
CLEAR VISION AREA Chapter 18.795
Response:SW 79th is a non-arterial street and the vision clearance requirements are shown of the site
plan. There are no obstructions within the clear vision areas.
FUTURE STREET PLAN AND EXTENSION OF STREETS Chapter 18.810.030.F
Response:A future streets plan has been prepared that illustrates the existing conditions and future
street alignments. The plan also shows a concept plan of how the two rear parcels in the partition can
achieve the required density.
ADDITIONAL LOT DIMENSIONAL REQUIREMENTS Chapter 18.810.060
Response: The lot depth to width ratio does not exceed the 2%times the width as shown on the site plan
BLOCKS Chapter 18.810.040
Response:No public streets are proposed and therefore no blocks are proposed.
Narrative April 2017
18.810.010 Purpose
The purpose of this chapter is to provide construction standards for the implementation of public and
private facilities and utilities such as streets, sewers, and drainage.
18.810.020 General Provisions
A. When standards apply. Unless otherwise provided, construction, reconstruction or repair of streets,
sidewalks, curbs and other public improvements shall occur in accordance with the standards of this
title. No development may occur and no land use application may be approved unless the public
facilities related to development comply with the public facility requirements established in this
section and adequate public facilities are available. Applicants may be required to dedicate land and
build required public improvements only when the required exaction is directly related to and
roughly proportional to the impact of the development.
B. Standard specifications. The city engineer shall establish standard specifications consistent with the
application of engineering principles.
C. Chapter 7.40 applies. The provision of Chapter 7.40 of the Tigard Municipal Code shall apply to
this chapter.
D. Adjustments. Adjustments to the provisions in this chapter related to street improvements may be
granted by means of a Type II procedure, as governed by Section 18.390.040, using approval
criteria in 18.370.020.C.11.
E.. Except as provided in 18.810.030.S, as used in this chapter, the term "streets" shall mean "public
streets" unless an adjustment under subsection D of this section is allowed. (Ord. 12-13 §1; Ord.
99-22)
18.810.030 Streets
A. Improvements.
1. No development shall occur unless the development has frontage or approved access to a public
street.
RESPONSE: THIS PROPERTY FRONT SW 79TH, A PUBLIC STREET.
2. No development shall occur unless streets within the development meet the standards of this
chapter.
RESPONSE:NO NEW PUBLIC STREETS ARE PROPOSED
3. No development shall occur unless the streets adjacent to the development meet the standards
of this chapter, provided, however, that a development may be approved if the adjacent street
does not meet the standards but half-street improvements meeting the standards of this title are
constructed adjacent to the development.
RESPONSE: SW 79TH STREET IS IMPROVED STEET THAT IS PAVED AND CURBED ON
BOTH SIDEDS. NO ADDITIONAL IMPROVEMENTS ARE PROPOSED.
4. Any new street or additional street width planned as a portion of an existing street shall meet
the standards of this chapter.
1
RESPONSE:NO NEW STREETS OR EXPANSION OF EXISTING STREETS ARE PROPOSED.
5. If the city could and would otherwise require the applicant to provide street improvements, the
city engineer may accept a future improvements guarantee in lieu of street improvements if one
or more of the following conditions exist:
a. A partial improvement is not feasible due to the inability to achieve proper design
standards;
b. A partial improvement may create a potential safety hazard to motorists or pedestrians;
c. Due to the nature of existing development on adjacent properties it is unlikely that street
improvements would be extended in the foreseeable future and the improvement associated
with the project under review does not, by itself, provide a significant improvement to
street safety or capacity;
d. The improvement would be in conflict with an adopted capital improvement plan;
e. The improvement is associated with an approved land partition on property zoned
residential and the proposed land partition does not create any new streets; or
f. Additional planning work is required to define the appropriate design standards for the
street and the application is for a project which would contribute only a minor portion of
the anticipated future traffic on the street.
RESPONSE:ITEM SE APPLIES
6. The standards of this chapter include the standard specifications adopted by the city engineer
pursuant to 18.810.020.B.
RESPONSE:N/A
7. The approval authority may approve adjustments to the standards of this chapter if compliance
with the standards would result in an adverse impact on natural features such as wetlands,
bodies of water, significant habitat areas, steep slopes, or existing mature trees. The approval
authority may also approve adjustments to the standards of this chapter if compliance with the
standards would have a substantial adverse impact on existing development or would preclude
development on the property where the development is proposed. In approving an adjustment to
the standards, the approval authority shall balance the benefit of the adjustment with the impact
on the public interest represented by the standards. In evaluating the impact on the public
interest, the approval authority shall consider the criteria listed in paragraph E.1 of this section.
An adjustment to the standards may not be granted if the adjustment would risk public safety.
RESPONSE:N/A
B. Creation of rights-of-way for streets and related purposes. Rights-of-way shall be created through
the approval of a final subdivision plat or major partition; however, the council may approve the
creation of a street by acceptance of a deed, provided that such street is deemed essential by the
council for the purpose of general traffic circulation.
1. The council may approve the creation of a street by deed of dedication without full compliance
with the regulations applicable to subdivisions or major partitions if any one or more of the
following conditions are found by the council to be present:
2
a. Establishment of a street is initiated by the council and is found to be essential for the
purpose of general traffic circulation, and partitioning or subdivision of land has an
incidental effect rather than being the primary objective in establishing the road or street for
public use; or
b. The tract in which the road or street is to be dedicated is an isolated ownership of one acre
or less and such dedication is recommended by the commission to the council based on a
finding that the proposal is not an attempt to evade the provisions of this title governing the
control of subdivisions or major partitions.
c. The street is located within the downtown mixed use central business district and has been
identified on Figures 5-14A through 5-14I of the City of Tigard 2035 Transportation
System Plan as a required connectivity improvement.
RESPONSE:NO STREETS ARE PROPOSED
2. With each application for approval of a road or street right-of-way not in full compliance with
the regulations applicable to the standards, the proposed dedication shall be made a condition of
subdivision and major partition approval.
a. The applicant shall submit such additional information and justification as may be
necessary to enable the commission in its review to determine whether or not a
recommendation for approval by the council shall be made.
b. The recommendation, if any, shall be based upon a finding that the proposal is not in
conflict with the purpose of this title.
c. The commission in submitting the proposal with a recommendation to the council may
attach conditions which are necessary to preserve the standards of this title.
RESPONSE: NO NEW STREETS ARE PROPOSE, A 5' RIGHT-OF-WAY DEDICATION IS
PROPOSED ACROSS THE FRONTAGE
3. All deeds of dedication shall be in a form prescribed by the city and shall name "the public" as
grantee.
RESPONSE: THE DEDICATION WILL APPEAR ON THE PARTITION PLAT AND THE DEEP
SHALL NAME "THE PUBLIC"AS THE GRANTEE.
C. Creation of access easements. The approval authority may approve an access easement established
by deed without full compliance with this title provided such an easement is the only reasonable
method by which a lot large enough to develop can be created.
RESPONSE: THE SHAPE OF THE LOT AND EXISTING HOUSES DICTATE THE NEED FOR AN
ACCESS EASEMENT FROM SW 79TH TO ACCESS THE PROPERTY IN THE REAR
1. Access easements shall be provided and maintained in accordance with the Uniform Fire Code,
Section 10.207.
RESPONSE: THE PROPOSED DRIVE WILL BE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE UNIFORM FIRE
CODE.
2. Access shall be in accordance with 18.705.030.H and I.
RESPONSE: THE PROPOSED DRIVEWAY WILL NOT REQUIRE BACKING OUT ONTO THE
PUBLIC STREET WILL HAVE A TURNAROUND BECAUSE THE LENGTH IS GREATER THAN
150-FEET AND WILL MEET THE WIDTH REUIREMENTS OF TABLE 18.705.1
3
D. Street location, width and grade. Except as noted below, the location, width and grade of all streets
shall conform to an approved street plan and shall be considered in their relation to existing and
planned streets, to topographic conditions, to public convenience and safety, and in their
appropriate relation to the proposed use of the land to be served by such streets:
1. Street grades shall be approved by the city engineer in accordance with subsection N of this
section; and
2. Where the location of a street is not shown in an approved street plan, the arrangement of
streets in a development shall either:
a. Provide for the continuation or appropriate projection of existing streets in the surrounding
areas,or
b. Conform to a plan adopted by the commission, if it is impractical to conform to existing
street patterns because of particular topographical or other existing conditions of the land.
Such a plan shall be based on the type of land use to be served, the volume of traffic, the
capacity of adjoining streets and the need for public convenience and safety.
RESPONSE;NO NEW PUBLIC STREETS ARE PROPOSED.
E. Minimum rights-of-way and street widths. Unless otherwise indicated on an approved street plan,
or as needed to continue an existing improved street or within the downtown district, street right-of-
way and roadway widths shall not be less than the minimum width described below. Where a range
is indicated, the width shall be determined by the decision-making authority based upon anticipated
average daily traffic (ADT) on the new street segment. (The city council may adopt by resolution,
design standards for street construction and other public improvements. The design standards will
provide guidance for determining improvement requirements within the specified ranges.) These
are presented in Table 18.810.1.
1. The decision-making body shall make its decision about desired right-of-way width and
pavement width of the various street types within the subdivision or development after
consideration of the following:
a. The type of road as set forth in the comprehensive plan transportation chapter - functional
street classification.
b. Anticipated traffic generation.
c. On-street parking needs.
d. Sidewalk and bikeway requirements.
e. Requirements for placement of utilities.
f. Street lighting.
g. Drainage and slope impacts.
4
h. Street tree location.
i. Planting and landscape areas.
j. Safety and comfort for motorists,bicyclists, and pedestrians.k.
Access needs for emergency vehicles.
RESPONSE:NO NEW PUBLIC STREETS ARE PROPOSED,
SINCE THERE ARE NO SIDEWALKS ON THIS SIDE OF THE
STREET NO SIDEWALK IS PROPOSED AT THIS TIME. FEE IN
LIEU IS PROPOSED
F. Future street plan and extension of streets.
1. A future street plan shall:
a. Be filed by the applicant in conjunction with an application for a subdivision or partition. The
plan shall show the pattern of existing and proposed future streets from the boundaries of the
proposed land division and shall include other parcels within 530 feet surrounding and
adjacent to the proposed land division. At the applicant's request, the city may prepare a
future streets proposal. Costs of the city preparing a future streets proposal shall be
reimbursed for the time involved. A street proposal may be modified when subsequent
subdivision proposals are submitted.
b. Identify existing or proposed bus routes, pullouts or other transit facilities, bicycle routes and
pedestrian facilities on or within 530 feet of the site.
RESPONSE: A FUTURE STREET PLAN HAS BEEN PROVIDED SHOWING THE CURRENT
STREET PATTERN AND POSSIBLE FUTURE STEET LOCATIONS.
2. Where necessary to give access or peuuit a satisfactory future division of adjoining land, streets
shall be extended to the boundary lines of the tract to be developed, and
a. These extended streets or street stubs to adjoining properties are not considered to be culs-de-
sac since they are intended to continue as through streets at such time as the adjoining
property is developed.
b. A barricade shall be constructed at the end of the street by the property owners which shall
not be removed until authorized by the city engineer, the cost of which shall be included in
the street construction cost.
c. Temporary hammerhead turnouts or temporary cul-de-sac bulbs shall be constructed for stub
street in excess of 150 feet in length.
RESPONSE:FUTURE THROUGH STREETS ARE PROPOSED WHERE FEASIBLE.
5
G. Street spacing and access management.Refer to 18.705.030.H.
RESPONSE:NO NEW PUBLIC STREETS ARE PROPOSED. THE FUTURE STREET PLAN
ILLUSTRATES FUTURE STEETS THAT CAN MEET THE REQUIREMENTS FOR SPACING AND
SIGHT DISTANCE. THE PROPOSED PARTITION IS TO HAVE A PRIVATE DRIVE THAN MEETS THE
WIDTH REQUIREMENTS AND IS NOT LOCATED ON A COLLECTOR RO ARTERIAL STREET
H. Street alignment and connections.
1. Full street connections with spacing of no more than 530 feet between connections is required
except where prevented by barriers such as topography, railroads, freeways, pre-existing
developments, lease provisions, easements, covenants or other restrictions existing prior to May
1, 1995 which preclude street connections. A full street connection may also be exempted due to
a regulated water feature if regulations would not permit construction.
RESPONSE:NO NEW PUBLIC STREETS ARE PROPOSED. THE FUTURE STEET PLAN
ILLSUTRATED LOCATION OF CONNECTION STREETS.
2. All local, neighborhood routes and collector streets which abut a development site shall be
extended within the site to provide through circulation when not precluded by environmental or
topographical constraints, existing development patterns or strict adherence to other standards in
this code. A street connection or extension is considered precluded when it is not possible to
redesign or reconfigure the street pattern to provide required extensions. Land is considered
topographically constrained if the slope is greater than 15% for a distance of 250 feet or more. In
the case of environmental or topographical constraints, the mere presence of a constraint is not
sufficient to show that a street connection is not possible. The applicant must show why the
constraint precludes some reasonable street connection.
RESPONSE:NO STREET ABUT THE DEVELOPMENT NEED TO BE EXTENDED.
3. Proposed street or street extensions shall be located to provide direct access to existing or planned
transit stops, commercial services, and other neighborhood facilities, such as schools, shopping
areas and parks.
RESPONSE: NO STREET EXTENSIONS ARE PROPOSED OR NEEDED
4. All developments should provide an internal network of connecting streets that provide short,
direct travel routes and minimize travel distances within the development.
RESPONSE:NO INTERNAL STREET ARE PROPOSED
I. Intersection angles. Streets shall be laid out so as to intersect at an angle as near to a right angle as
practicable, except where topography requires a lesser angle, but in no case shall the angle be less
than 75°unless there is special intersection design, and:
1. Streets shall have at least 25 feet of tangent adjacent to the right-of-way intersection unless
topography requires a lesser distance;
2. Intersections which are not at right angles shall have a minimum corner radius of 20 feet along
the right-of-way lines of the acute angle; and
3. Right-of-way lines at intersection with arterial streets shall have a corner radius of not less than
20 feet.
RESPONSE:NO NEWPUBLIC STREETS ARE PROPOSED, THE ONE PRIVATE DRIVE WILL
BEAT RIGHT ANGLES WITH THE EXISITNG RIGHT OF WAY
6
J. Existing rights-of-way. Whenever existing rights-of-way adjacent to or within a tract are of less than
standard width, additional rights-of-way shall be provided at the time of subdivision or development.
RESPONSE:A 5-FOOT DEDICATION IS PROPOSED ACROSS THE FRONTAGE OF THE PROPERTY
K. Partial street improvements. Partial street improvements resulting in a pavement width of less than 20
feet, while generally not acceptable, may be approved where essential to reasonable development
when in conformity with the other requirements of these regulations, and when it will be practical to
require the improvement of the other half when the adjoining property developed.
RESPONSE:NO PARTIAL STREET IMPROVEMENTS ARE PROPOSED
L. Culs-de-sacs. A cul-de-sac shall be no more than 200 feet long, shall not provide access to greater
than 20 dwelling units, and shall only be used when environmental or topographical constraints,
existing development pattern, or strict adherence to other standards in this code preclude street
extension and through circulation:
1. All culs-de-sac shall terminate with a turnaround. Use of turnaround configurations other than
circular shall be approved by the city engineer; and
2. The length of the cul-de-sac shall be measured from the centerline intersection point of the two
streets to the radius point of the bulb.
3. If a cul-de-sac is more than 300 feet long, a lighted direct pathway to an adjacent street may be
required to be provided and dedicated to the city.
RESPONSE:NO PUBLIC STREETS ARE PROPOSED
M. Street names. No street name shall be used which will duplicate or be confused with the names of
existing streets in Washington County, except for extensions of existing streets. Street names and
numbers shall conform to the established pattern in the surrounding area and as approved by the city
engineer.
RESPONSE:NO NEW PUBLIC STREETS ARE PROPOSED

are other areas in the code that speak to how this density might be achieved.
18.420.020.D Future re-division. When partitioning tracts into large parcels, the director shall require that
the parcels be of such size and shape to facilitate future re partitioning of such parcels in accordance with
the requirements of the zoning code and this title. The plan as submitted illustrates two parcel that have are
shown with a shadow plat of how then could be re-divided meeting the access, size and density requirement
of the code.
Meeting minimum density must be considered in the context of the other partitioning regulations, which
clearly contemplate that large lots by be created. The size and shape of the proposed lot facilitate future re-
partitioning. The shadow plat illustrates how future repartitioning could occur. Although other
configuration might be possible this application with two vacant parcels does not inhibit future
redevelopment.
18.810.060.E Large Lots. In dividing tracts into large lots of parcels which at some future time are likely to
be redivided, the commission may require that the lots be of such size and shape, and be so divided into
building sites, and contain such site restrictions as will provide for the extension and opening of streets at
intervals which will permit a subsequent division of any tract into lots or parcels of smaller size. The land
division shall be denied if the proposed large development lot does not provide for the future extension of
public facilities.
This code uses the word `MAY"in the requirement that the large parcels be sized to allow for future
division. The proposed partition however has been sized and provided with a shadow plat how
redevelopment might occur.

Ron,
On Friday Oct 7, 2016, I visited your property at 15630 SW 79th Ave in Tigard, OR. My assignment was to
provide a tree inventory,visual health rating of trees on site and tree protection plans to protect trees
during construction. The rating systemm consists of good, fair and poor with recommendations to protect
and save or remove trees per my observations. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to call.
Tree Inventory:
Attached is a tree inventory. The Douglas Fir trees appear to be in fair to good condition, but several of
the trees have dead branches in the lower crown. The(2) birch trees have dead foliage which I suspect
is caused by an insect called bronze birch borer. I would strongly recommend pruning to several trees
and the pruning should be performed per ANSI A-300 pruning standards which should consist of crown
cleaning of the trees by pruning out the dead, broken and weakly attached branches.
Tree Protection Fencing:
Proper tree protection fencing gives trees the best chance of survival both during and after construction
activities. To ensure tree survival,the entire root area should be protected. Larger healthier trees can
incur some minor impact(less than 25%of the tree's entire root zone), which they may receive within
the tree protection zone(TPZ) and will survive for many years. The tree protection fencing should have
a 1 foot radius from the center of the trunk per diameter inch of the tree. The tree protection fencing
shall be 6 feet tall and the fabric should chain link. The fencing shall remain in place until construction
activities are completed. No construction shall occur inside the TPZ. In addition the fencing shall not be
moved or altered and no workers shall enter the TPZ at any time. If there is an emergency,or for some
reason the tree protection fencing needs to be moved or altered,or the TPZ needs to be entered for
work activity the builder/contractor must hire a Certified Arborist to be on site to monitor the activities.
The builder/contractor shall be responsible for the protection of the trees.
Thank you for this opportunity,
Chris Ritschard
