Public Facility Plan
Presented to Tigard City Council
November 26, 2019
Introduction
A Public Facility Plan (PFP)is required for every Oregon jurisdiction under Oregon Statewide
Planning Goal 11: Public Facilities and Services, and Oregon Administrative Rules (OAR)
Chapter 660, Division 11: Public Facilities Planning. This memorandum has been prepared to
serve as the update to the Tigard PFP that was originally adopted in 1991. The updated PFP
meets the requirements of Tigard's Periodic Review Work Program Task 4: Public Facility
Plan and Urban Services, as reviewed by the Oregon Department of Land Conservation and
Development (DLCD). Tigard's Periodic Review was initiated in 2010, and the completion of
Task 4 is the final task required of the City. This PFP is also a support document to the Public
Facilities and Services chapter of the Tigard Comprehensive Plan.
Tigard's Periodic Review Work Program Task 4 specifically states that the following public
facilities must be included in the PFP:
• Storm drainage
• Water
• Sanitary sewer
• Park facilities
Additionally, OAR 660-011-0010(1) states that a PFP must include the following items for
each public facility:
(a) An inventory and general assessment of the condition of all the significant public
facility systems which support the land uses designated in the acknowledged
comprehensive plan;
(b) A list of the significant public facility projects which are to support the land uses
designated in the acknowledged comprehensive plan. Public facility project
descriptions or specifications of these projects as necessary;
(c) Rough cost estimates of each public facility project;
(d) A map or written description of each public facility project's general location or service
area;
(e) Policy statement(s) or urban growth management agreement identifying the provider
of each public facility system. If there is more than one provider with the authority to
provide the system within the area covered by the public facility plan,then the provider
of each project shall be designated;
(f) An estimate of when each facility project will be needed; and
(g) A discussion of the provider's existing funding mechanisms and the ability of these and
possible new mechanisms to fund the development of each public facility project or
system.
OAR 660-011-0010(3) also states: "Where all or part of an acknowledged comprehensive plan,
facility master plan either of the local jurisdiction or appropriate special district, capital
improvement program,regional functional plan, similar plan or any combination of such plans
meets all or some of the requirements of this division, those plans, or programs may be
1
incorporated by reference into the public facility plan required by this division. Only those
referenced portions of such documents shall be considered to be a part of the public facility
plan and shall be subject to the administrative procedures of this division and ORS Chapter
197."
Accordingly, the following citywide plans are incorporated by reference into the City's PFP:
Stormwater Master Plan (2018),Water System Master Plan (2010), Sanitary Sewer Master Plan
(2010), Parks System Master Plan Update (2009), and Greenways Trail System Master Plan
(2011) are incorporated by reference into this PFP. The following sub-area plans, which are
specific to the River Terrace area, are also incorporated by reference into this PFP: River
Terrace Stormwater Master Plan (2014),River Terrace Water System Master Plan (2014),River
Terrace Sanitary System Master Plan (2014), River Terrace Park System Master Plan (2014),
and the River Terrace Funding Strategy (2014). All of the above-referenced plans have been
previously adopted and approved by Tigard City Council. As detailed in the findings below,
these plans contain the information required by OAR 660-011-0010(1).
Storm Drainage
The City of Tigard partners with Clean Water Services (CWS)in the planning and management
of the City's stormwater system. In 2018,the City adopted the Tigard Stormwater Master Plan,
which captures information about Tigard's existing flooding, water quality, erosion, and
maintenance issues, and provides several recommendations for programs and projects to
address and prioritize stormwater management needs. This plan provides an inventory and
general assessment of the City's existing stormwater system. The plan's Capital Improvement
Project Fact Sheets and Program Recommendations Fact Sheets include maps, descriptions,
and cost estimates for each project. The implementation section of the plan discusses project
prioritization and recommendations.
Funding for the stormwater system is generated from two sources. The first is from System
Development Charges (SDCs) that are assessed on new developments that cannot provide
their own water quantity and quality facilities. The money is placed in the Storm Sewer Fund
and used for capital projects. The second, the Surface Water Management Fee, is a monthly
charge that is collected on utility bills. The City keeps a portion of this fee for operations and
maintenance of its portion of the stormwater system,with the remainder going to CWS.
The River Terrace Stormwater Master Plan (2014) describes the stormwater management
strategy for the River Terrace area and illustrates how this strategy is to be applied during the
development of River Terrace. The plan includes a list of proposed projects with detailed
descriptions including cost estimates, project prioritization, and recommendations. Funding
options for development of the stormwater system in River Terrace are discussed in detail in
the River Terrace Funding Strategy (2014).
2
Water
The City of Tigard supplies water to the Tigard Water Service Area, which includes the
majority of the City of Tigard, the Tigard Water District (Bull Mountain area of
unincorporated Washington County),and the Cities of Durham and King City.Tualatin Valley
Water District (TVWD) supplies water to the northeast area of the City. TVWD operates
independently from the City of Tigard. The City purchases water in partnership with the City
of Lake Oswego and draws water from the Clackamas River Basin. In 2008, the City signed
an intergovernmental agreement regarding water supply facilities, design, construction, and
operation with the City of Lake Oswego. The City also has agreements with TVWD, the City
of Beaverton, and the Lake Grove Water District for emergency water supplies. Additionally,
the City owns and operates wells to supplement existing water supplies during periods of high
water demand.
The Tigard Water System Master Plan (2010) is the current master plan for the City's water
supply system. This plan includes an inventory and general assessment of the City's existing
water system, supply sources, existing infrastructure, and general operations. The plan also
provides a prioritized water system Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) and Capital Maintenance
Plan (CMP) for the City. The CIP and CMP include lists of significant projects, cost estimates,
project descriptions, project prioritization, and recommendations. The City has begun the
process of updating the current Tigard Water System Master Plan at the time of this PFP
update.
The City of Tigard Water System is set up as an enterprise fund. This fund draws no money
from the City's general fund. It operates solely on revenue generated by the water system.
SDCs for new construction and connections, and fees for water consumption are the two
main sources of revenue for this fund.
The River Terrace Water System Master Plan Addendum (2014) guides water system
infrastructure improvements specific to the River Terrace area. This addendum provides
projected water demands and an analysis of the necessary water supply and storage capacity
for the River Terrace area. The addendum also includes a list of proposed projects with
detailed descriptions including cost estimates, project prioritization, and recommendations.
Funding options for development of the water system in River Terrace are discussed in detail
in the River Terrace Funding Strategy (2014).
Sanitary Sewer
The City of Tigard provides sanitary sewer service to its residents through a cooperative
agreement with CWS. The Durham Advanced Wastewater Treatment Facility, operated by
CWS, treats all wastewater from Tigard and discharges to the Tualatin River. Under the City's
agreement with CWS, the City maintains and operates collection system gravity sewers smaller
than 24 inches in diameter. The City holds overall responsibility for planning public
infrastructure needed by existing and planned residents and businesses, and thereby shares
3
responsibility for overall wastewater collection system planning with CWS.
The Tigard Sanitary Sewer Master Plan (2010) is the current master plan for the City's
wastewater collection system. This plan includes an inventory and general assessment of the
City's existing wastewater collection system, existing facilities, and general operations. The
plan also presents a prioritized sanitary sewer CIP,which includes a list of significant projects,
cost estimates, project descriptions, project prioritization, and recommendations.
Funding for the wastewater collection system is generated from three sources. First,
developers finance the construction of new sewer lines needed to service their new
developments. Second, during the building permit process, a connection fee is collected by
the City. Most of the fee is transferred to CWS, but a portion of the fee is retained by the City
for system improvements. Finally, a monthly sewer service fee is collected on the utility bill
and a portion is retained by the City for operations and maintenance of its portion of the
wastewater collection system, with the remainder going to CWS.
The River Terrace Sanitary System Master Plan Addendum (2014) guides sanitary sewer
infrastructure improvements in River Terrace. The addendum includes a list of proposed
projects with detailed descriptions including cost estimates, project prioritization, and
recommendations. Funding options for development of the sanitary sewer system in River
Terrace are discussed in detail in the River Terrace Funding Strategy (2014).
Park Facilities
The City of Tigard contains nearly 550 acres of parks,greenways, and natural areas. The City's
park system is made up of different types of parks, recreation facilities, and open space areas,
each designed to provide a specific type of recreation experience.Accordingly, the City's parks
are classified by their function: community parks, neighborhood parks, pocket parks, linear
parks, special use areas,open space,and undeveloped parkland.The City's trail system consists
of regional trails, which serve as the backbone to the trails network, supported by a
complementary system of community and neighborhood trails.
The Tigard Parks System Master Plan Update (2009) is the current master plan for the City's
park system. The current plan includes an inventory and general assessment of the City's
existing park facilities, and general operations. The plan also provides a needs analysis of park-
related amenities, recreation facilities, and programs in the City. The implementation section
of the plan discusses both non-capital and CIP projects, and includes a list of significant
projects, cost estimates, project descriptions, project prioritization, recommendations, and
funding options. The City has begun the process of updating the current Tigard Parks System
Master Plan at the time of this PFP update.
The Tigard Greenways Trail System Master Plan (2011) is the current master plan for the
City's trail system. This plan includes an inventory and general assessment of the City's trails,
general operations, and existing trail-related policies and plans. The plan also provides a list of
4
recommended trail projects, which includes cost estimates, maps, project descriptions, and
project prioritization. The implementation section provides a detailed discussion on funding
options and further recommendations.
The River Terrace Park System Master Plan Addendum (2014) is the guiding document for
park planning and development in the River Terrace area. The addendum includes a list of
recommended parks in River Terrace, with detailed descriptions of proposed park types and
cost estimates. Funding options for park development in River Terrace are discussed in detail
in the River Terrace Funding Strategy (2014).
Conclusion
This PFP meets the requirements of Tigard's Periodic Review Work Program Task 4: Public
Facility Plan and Urban Services, as reviewed by DLCD. Additionally, this PFP complies with
Oregon Statewide Planning Goal 11: Public Facilities and Services, and OAR Chapter 660,

Tigard Comprehensive Plan
Public Facilities and Services
"The community's vision is for a future where essential public facilities and services are readily
available to serve the needs of the community."
Public Facilities and Services addresses the their appropriate coordination, location, and
delivery of public services in a manner that best supports the existing and proposed land
uses. For the purposes of the Comprehensive Plan, Public Facilities and Services refers to
Stormwater Management, Water Supply and Distribution, Wastewater Management,
Community Facilities, and Private Utilities. The provision of these facilities and services is
essential to a high quality of life and the health, safety, and welfare of the community. Their
availability is also vital to promoting and sustaining a strong local and regional economy. For
these reasons, the City and its partner agencies and districts must efficiently plan for the
impacts of future growth and development on the facilities and services provided. Statewide
Planning Goal 11 requires Oregon jurisdictions to adopt Comprehensive Plans that provide
goals and policies as the basis to manage,maintain,and expand the public facilities and services
of the community.
Goal 11: Public Facilities and Services
"To plan and develop a timely, orderly, and efficient arrangement of public facilities and
services to serve as a framework for urban and rural development."
The community's vision is for a future where essential public facilities and services are readily
available to serve the needs of the community. They understand the importance of not only
planning for and funding the facilities, but ensuring their continued maintenance. They also
recognize the impact that new development places upon all services and want them to pay
their fair share. The public library, senior center, public safety, and public schools especially
are considered vital components of a high quality, livable community. Furthermore, it is
recognized that expected population growth in the region will place increased pressure on
existing public facilities and services.
Tigard Comprehensive Plan,Public Facilities and Services 1
The City of Tigard has adopted the City of Tigard Public FacilityPlan (1991) as required by
Oregon Administrative Rule 660-11. The City will make appropriate updates to the Public
Facilitty Plan on a regular basis as part of the Periodic Review process as required by Oregon
Administrative Rule 660-25.
Section 1: Stormwater Management
The City stormwater infrastructure is a mix of natural and piped systems. As with most urban
areas, the reliance on piped stormwater has been important to transport the water from
impervious surfaces to the natural systems and move it out of the community. To ensure the
system operates effectively, the natural components must remain in good condition to meet
the primary objectives of protecting water quality and flood control. To accomplish these
objectives, the City adopted the Tigard Stormwater Master Plan (2018), and collaborates
with Clean Water Services (CWS) in the planning and management of the system. The plans
currently used for City efforts arc the CWS Stormwater Management Plan (2006), which
addresses water quality protection, and Fanno Creek Watershed Management Plan (1997),
which addresses flood control in the City.
The City's master plan provides information about existing flooding, water quality,
erosion, and maintenance issues. It provides several recommendations for programs
and projects to address and prioritize stormwater management needs throughout the
City. In addition to the citywide plan, a separate subarea plan known as the River
Terrace Stormwater Master Plan (2014) was developed to address the unique
stormwater management needs of the City's urban growth expansion area, which is
located on the southern and western flanks of Bull Mountain.
CWS has two adopted plans that the City is required to follow and also helps to
implement. The CWS2996 StomwaterManagement Plan (2006)addresses water quality and
(SWMP) is a requirement of the combined National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System
(NPDES) and Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) permits held by CWS. The
SWMP is revised on a five year cycle and was last updated in spring 2006. To implement the
plan, The the City has an inter-governmental agreement (IGA) with CWS as a "self-service
provider," to implement the plan. This designation means the City has operation and
maintenance authority over storm drain systems, water quality systems, and roadside ditches
within the City. under City jurisdiction. The IGA outlines the CWS work program standards
that must be followed by the City.
The 1997 Fanno Creek Watershed Management Plan (1997) include -. - - : ' : - , i - -
CWS for all jurisdictions within the basin, and is the adopted drainage principal plan for
drainage in the City. The plan Fanno Plan covers 85% of Tigard because{the remaining 15%
of the City jurisdiction drains directly to the Tualatin River.) and has been adopted by the
City—Included in the plan is an inventory of drainage structures, an evaluation of their
adequacy of capacity, and recommended City infrastructure improvements to reduce flooding.
Tigard Comprehensive Plan,Public Facilities and Services 2
Funding for these projects is available through the Storm Sewer Fund that results from the
collection of system development charges.
In addition, the City is responsible for adopting policies and regulations that implement
statewide land use goals to protect water quality and wildlife habitat. These policies and
regulations must ensure that the impacts of new development on the stormwater infrastructure
are minimized. One of the greatest impacts on stormwater infrastructure is the amount of
impervious surface in a watershed. Impervious surfaces increase run-off into the stormwater
system and increase the peak flow of storm events. Reducing the impervious surface coverage
will encourage natural filtration and help to reduce the stormwater infrastructure needs,as well
as reduce problems associated with scouring and erosion of stream channels from storm
events.
Although CWS does not have land use authority, they have been involved in reducing the
impacts of stormwater by developing the CWS Design and Construction Standards (2007) that
have been adopted by, and are implemented by, the City. A city engineer performs the task of
evaluating the stormwater infrastructure design during the development'review process to
make sure the standards are met.
In addition to the CWS Design and Construction Standards(2007), the City has adopted voluntary
habitat friendly development provisions that may be utilized during new development. The
provisions seek to protect wildlife habitat that has been identified within the community and
includes low impact development practices that are meant to reduce stormwater flow.
Funding for the stormwater system is generated from two sources. The first is from System
Development Charges (SDCs) that are assessed on new developments that cannot provide
their own water quantity and quality facilities. The money is placed in the Storm Sewer Fund
and used for capital projects. The second, the Surface Water Management Fee, is a monthly
charge that is collected on utility bills. The City keeps a portion of this fee for operations and
maintenance of the stormwater infrastructure.
Key Findings:
• The expansion and maintenance of stormwater infrastructure is an important factor
affecting growth and development.
• Objectives of the stormwater system are the protection of water quality and flood
control and are addressed through the Tigard Stormwater Master Plan (2018)1 CWS
Stormwater Management Plan (2006), aftd—the Fanno Creek Watershed Management Plan
(1997), and the River Terrace Stormwater Master Plan (2014).
• The City maintains stormwater pipes, catch basins, outfalls, and water quality facilities;
which includes ponds, swales, filter systems, detention pipes and tanks.
• Impervious surfaces, undersized bridges and culverts, and inadequate infrastructure
contribute to localized flooding.

Section 2: Water Supply and Distribution
The City of Tigard-provides water to the Tigard Water Service Area. This area includes most
of the City's residents and also the City of Durham, King City, and the Bull Mountain area of
unincorporated Washington County; which is represented by the Tigard Water District. The
northeast corner of the City is supplied water by the Tualatin Valley Water District (TVWD),
which operates independently from the City of Tigard.
The TVWD is governed by a five-member Board of Commissioners and operates under the
TVWD Water Master Plan/Management Plan (2007). Tigard has no role in the operation or
management of TVWD, but has collaborated with them on long-term supply studies and is
also capable of sharing water in emergency situations.
The City of Tigard took over the provision of water to the Tigard Water Service Area from
the Tigard Water District in 1994. During the transfer of supply responsibilities, an IGA
created oversight for the water system through the Intergovernmental Water Board (IGWB),
which consists of a member from Tigard, Durham, King City,Tigard Water District, and one
at-large member. The IGWB advises Tigard City Council on issues relating to rate setting and
water supply.
The City owns and operates the water distribution system under license from the Oregon
Department of Human Services and the Oregon Water Resources Department. The Water
System Master Plan(2010) .. : • ! ' . - . - !!! is the current master plan
for the City's water supply system. and the River Terrace Water System Master Plan

The City purchases water in partnership with the City of Lake Oswego and draws
water from the Clackamas River Basin. In 2008, the City signed an intergovernmental
agreement regarding water supply facilities, design, construction, and operation with
the City of Lake Oswego. The City also has agreements with TVWD, the City of
Beaverton, and the Lake Grove Water District for emergency water supplies.Although
the City owns a few wells, nearly 90% of the water supply is purchased from whole sale water
providers such as the Portland Water Bureau (PWB). The City signed a 10 year agreement in
summer 2006 to continue purchasing water from PWB. In addition, the City purchases water
from the City of Lake Oswego, which draws its water from the Clackamas River Basin. This
lack of a City owned supply has been identified as an important issue for the future and three
long term supply feasibility studies arc in progress. The studies arc in collaboration with
Tigard Comprehensive Plan,Public Facilities and Services 5
During periods of high water demand, the City can supplement its supply
with water from City-owned aquifer storage and recovery (ASR) wells and native groundwater
wells. ::. :: - . - ; .. , : - : :. - , - :- - - :'- .• . - : - -. : - ' .
Watcr from the JWC is delivered via the City of Beaverton system, making it Tigard's only
fluoridated supply. The City also has system inter tics with Tualatin and the Lake Grove Water
District that allows sharing water under emergency conditions.
In 2005, the Oregon Departments of Human Services and Environmental Quality conducted
a source water assessment on Tigard's groundwater. Within the Tigard water service area, 50
sites were identified as potential sources of drinking water contamination, if managed
improperly.
The City of Tigard Water System is set up as an enterprise fund. This fund draws The budget
needs no money from the City's general fund. It, and operates btraed solely on revenue
generated by the water system. the Water System creates. System Development Charges
for new construction and connections, and fees rates for water consumption are the two main
sources of revenue for this fund the budget.
Key Findings:
• The expansion and maintenance of water supply and distribution infrastructure is an
important factor affecting growth and development.
• Two water providers operate within the City of Tigard; this requires collaboration to
define future roles.
• The City of Tigard Water System Service provides potable water distributed through
a network of reservoirs, pump stations, and pipes up to 36" in diameter.
• Feasibility studies will help to provide direction for the City's long-term supply options.
• The City has experienced a decrease in total and per capita consumption from 2001 to
2005 due to repairs made in water line leaks, rising costs, and the Water Conservation
Program.
• The Water Demand Forecast Report (2006) projects future annual water demand could
range from 2,732 to 3,229 million gallons in the Tigard Water Service Area.
• The citizens of Tigard are concerned about population increases and the impact upon
the community.
• The citizens of Tigard are concerned about the future of public services,which includes
safety, schools and infrastructure.
Goal:
11.2 Secure a reliable, high quality, water supply to meet the existing and future needs of the
community.
Policies:
1. The City shall prioritize securing an interest in a high quality, long-term water supply,
which is financially feasible and reliable, to serve the Tigard Water Service Area.

Section 3: Wastewater Management
Wastewater services within Tigard are managed through an agreement between the City and
CWS.The agreement assigns the City enforcement of design and construction standards,rules
and regulations, and rates and charges governing the use of, and connection to, the wastewater
system. In return, CWS acts as the regional wastewater authority that provides, owns, and
maintains sewer lines with a diameter of 24 inches or greater (the City owns less than 24-inch
lines), as well as pump stations and treatment facilities. CWS is also responsible for the
planning of wastewater collection in the Tualatin River basin.
CWS owns and operates the Durham Wastewater Treatment Facility. The facility is operating
under the basin-wide NPDES permit and is in compliance with Clean Water Act regulations.
The City has an IGA with Clean Water Services to perform management and maintenance
tasks on City-owned wastewater infrastructure to ensure continued compliance with the
regulations.
The Sanitary Sewer Master Plan(2010)reflects ongoing planning for the sanitary sewer
system serving the City. The principal purpose of the plan is to provide a capacity
assessment of the wastewater collection facilities serving Tigard, and to document the
City's maintenance practices and budgetary needs with respect to the wastewater
collection system. Additionally, the River Terrace Sanitary Sewer Master Plan
Addendum (2014)is specific to the River Terrace area. The CWS Collection System Master
Plan Update(2000) is the current plan for wastewater collection in the Tualatin basin,including
the City of Tigard.The primary focus of the plan was to analyze future capacity of the system;
it was found that all existing lines within the City of Tigard have adequate capacity to
accommodate anticipated growth.
The City has also developed the Sanitary Sewer Facility Plan Map to help prioritize projects
and schedule improvements to the system through the Capital Improvement Plan (CIP). The
facility map is continuously revised, and shows the locations of all current and proposed lines
within the City. The map allows the City to plan for new construction and also identify
developed neighborhoods not currently being served by the wastewater system.
The Neighborhood Sewer Extension Program was established in 1996 by the City to extend
public infrastructure to unconnected neighborhoods. This program encourages property
owners to retire septic systems and connect to the City sewer system. The program does
require property owners, upon connection, to reimburse the City for a fair share of the total
cost. To encourage participation, the City also established the Neighborhood Sewer
Reimbursement District Incentive Program that provides options for limiting the financial
burden on the property owner.
Tigard Comprehensive Plan,Public Facilities and Services 8
In addition to the operation and maintenance of the existing wastewater system, the City is
responsible for implementing the CWS Design and Construction Standards (2007). Land use
applicants are required to obtain a Public Facility Permit when connecting to City owned
wastewater infrastructure and must comply with the standards as part of the development
review process. This function is outlined in the IGA between CWS and Tigard and is carried
out by a City engineer.
Funding for the wastewater system is generated from three sources. First, developers finance
the construction of new sewer lines needed to service their new developments. Secondly,
during the building permit process, a connection fee is collected by the City. Most of the fee
is transferred to CWS,but a portion of the fee is retained by the City for system improvements.
Finally, the monthly sewer service fee is collected on the utility bill and a portion is retained
by the City for operations and maintenance of the wastewater system.
Key Findings:
• The expansion and maintenance of wastewater infrastructure is an important factor
affecting growth and development.
• The City coordinates the expansion, operation, and maintenance of wastewater
infrastructure through an IGA with CWS as a "self-service provider."
• The City owns and maintains wastewater mainlines sized 6 to 21 inches in diameter.
• A number of unserved neighborhoods have been provided the opportunity to connect
through the Neighborhood Sewer Extension Program.Additional neighborhoods have
been identified as potential participants in the program.
• The citizens of Tigard are concerned about population increases and the impact upon
the community.
• The citizens of Tigard are concerned about the impact of growth on the community's
natural resources.
• The citizens of Tigard are concerned about the future of public services,which
includes safety, schools, and infrastructure.
Goal:
11.3 Develop and maintain a wastewater collection system that meets the existing and future
needs of the community.
Policies:
1. The City shall require that all new development:
A. connect to the public wastewater system and pay a connection fee;
B. construct the appropriate wastewater infrastructure; and
C. comply with adopted plans and standards for wastewater management.
2. The City shall continue to collaborate with Clean Water Services in the planning,operation,
and maintenance of a comprehensive wastewater management system for current and
projected Tigard residents.
Tigard Comprehensive Plan,Public Facilities and Services 9
3. The City shall require the wastewater management system to comply with all applicable
federal, state, and regional regulations and programs.
4. The City shall require maintenance access to all wastewater infrastructure and easements.
5. The City shall prohibit the repair or replacement of septic tank systems within the City, to
the extent it has jurisdiction, unless it is not feasible to connect to the wastewater system.
6. The City shall require a property to be located within the City limits prior to receiving City
wastewater services.
7. The City shall require wastewater fees to be adequate to fund the operations and
maintenance of the system.
Recommended Action Measures:
i. Collaborate with Washington County Department of Health and Human Services
on developing an efficient protocol for notification of failed septic systems.
ii. Regularly review and update fees and charges to ensure they are sufficient to meet
the needed operational costs.
iii. Identify and map properties not connected to the public waste- water system.
iv. Continue the sewer extension program in order to encourage all properties to
connect to the public wastewater system.
v. Continue a proactive maintenance program to prolong the life of the infrastructure.
vi. Develop and implement a Capital Replacement Program for the wastewater
collection system.
Section 4: Community Facilities
The City of Tigard provides many community services,while special districts supply a portion
of the facilities and services that make the community what it is today. All of these facilities
and services must maintain a level of service that is adequate for the current population and,
at the same time, must plan for and accommodate future growth and development within
Tigard. This is why collaboration during the development process is essential to ensuring the
services will be available and funding options will continue to exist with an acceptable level of
service.
City-owned facilities include the Tigard Public Library, the Senior Center, and a number of
administrative and equipment storage facilities. The library is a new facility that was funded by
a community bond measure and opened to the public in 2004. The library offers a wide range
of services and programs and acts as a community center for Tigard residents. The library has
experienced a significant increase in use since the new facility was opened.
The Senior Center is a hub of activities for the aging population in the community. Social
events, classes, and meal services are a few of the offerings. Other City-owned facilities are
dispersed around the community and house various City personnel and equipment. These
facilities are vitally important to support the provision of public services to the community.
Tigard Comprehensive Plan,Public Facilities and Services 10
Two public school districts serve the City of Tigard's school-age children:Tigard-Tualatin and
Beaverton. Only Tigard-Tualatin owns property and operates schools within the Tigard City
limits. Both districts have seen steady growth over the years and are an important component
of reviewing development applications to ensure school capacity is not exceeded.Additionally,
this working relationship is important to finding appropriate sites for new school facilities that
will limit the impacts to the neighborhood and traffic flow.
Public safety is a critical component of a livable community. There must be adequate and
effective services, as well as the necessary infrastructure, to respond to emergencies in a timely
and efficient manner. This not only applies to the current population and built environment
within the City, but also to new growth and development.
The Tigard Police Department provides police services, while Tualatin Valley Fire & Rescue
(l'VFR) provides fire protection and emergency services for the community. Both have an
intergovernmental agreement with the Washington County Consolidated Communications
Agency (WCCCA) for 911 service and public safety communications. TVFR is a fire district
that covers 210 square miles, has a five-member board of directors and is funded through a
permanent tax rate on properties within the district.
One way for Tigard Police and TVFR to gauge their level of service is by tracking their incident
response time. Both pride them- selves on quick response time to calls for service, but as
development occurs, added traffic volumes and the associated congestion can cause a delay in
response time. This has led to, and will continue to lead to, the need for emergency services
to expand their services and facilities in order to continue providing adequate service.
Since growth and development will impact both fire and police services, Tigard Police and
TVFR have the opportunity for review and comment during the land use application process.
They evaluate proposed projects to ensure an adequate level of service exists for the
development, and no impediments will occur to hamper the ability to perform their functions.
For TVFR, street design and placement is very important for access and egress of its
equipment. A well connected street network is also essential to improving response times, for
both fire and police services. During the land use application process, TVFR reviews hydrant
locations, adequacy of firefighting water supplies, and viability of apparatus access to ensure
meeting fire code requirements.
In addition to providing a built environment that is accessible for safety equipment, the City
has adopted the Oregon statewide minimum fire code, and performs inspections on new
construction. The fire code outlines the required equipment for various development types
and sizes. Homeowners can voluntarily take steps to reduce risk of fire by installing equipment
and providing a defensible space around structures that are located in an area at risk of wildfire.
Key Findings:
Tigard Comprehensive Plan,Public Facilities and Services 11
• Growth and development will place increasing demands on the Police Department,
which has an average response time that has increased by 16% over the 5 year period
from 2002 to 2006.
• Areas of high population density and commercial areas,particularly Washington Square
Mall, place high demands on the Tigard Police Department.
• TVFR provides fire protection services for the City through an IGA.
• The dependability of fire protection is based in part on the distribution and capacity
of the City water supply.
• The City owns all fire hydrants within its boundaries.
• The community has an ISO fire insurance rating of 2, one of 15 in Oregon.
• Street widths must be adequate for fire equipment access and egress, which may
conflict with development that is promoting a pedestrian-friendly environment
through narrower streets.
• Appropriate fire detection and suppression equipment installed at the time of
development is cost-effective and invaluable in reducing the community's risk to fire.
• Two public school districts serve the City of Tigard's school-age children: Tigard-
Tualatin and Beaverton. The school district boundary dates back to 1910, prior to
Tigard's incorporation.
• In both 1993 and 2006 City surveys, Tigard residents named schools, education or
school funding as top issues for the community (ranking 6th and 4th, respectively).
• TTSD owns a number of properties in Tigard. The Beaverton School District does not
own any property within Tigard
• TTSD estimates slow steady growth: 4.6% rate by 2010, with no additional schools
planned for City limits.
• Beaverton School District is experiencing rapid growth and is looking for land for a
future school in the southwestern quadrant of their district, which includes schools
attended by Tigard residents.
• The new library has experienced increased usage (80°'o increase in visits from 1996 to
2006) since its completion, and as growth and development occur in the community,
additional pressure will be put on the services offered.
• The library is valued as a community center for public meetings and other events.
• Although not all City departments are directly involved in land use planning, their
provision of services is affected by growth and development. These impacts on
government services must be considered during the land use application process, as
well as additional facilities that would be needed to house them.
• City sustainability programs will be evaluated for inclusion in the Capital Improvement
Plan and may have an impact on future building renovations as it relates to the Tigard
Community Development Code.
• The citizens of Tigard are concerned about population increases and the impact upon
the community.
Tigard Comprehensive Plan,Public Facilities and Services 12
• The citizens of Tigard are concerned about the future of public services,which includes
safety, schools and infrastructure.
Goal:

Section 5: Private Utilities
Telecommunications, electricity, video, and natural gas service are provided to residents and
business owners within the City of Tigard by private utilities. These private utilities pay an
annual right-of-way usage fee to the City as outlined in the Tigard Municipal Code. This protects
the public's past and ongoing investments in rights-of-way and other public lands. The fee
also adheres to an equity principle that private companies should pay for the privilege of using
public property to conduct business,just as they pay for the privilege of using private property
to conduct business.
The services provided by these private companies and the associated infrastructure are
essential to the community. As growth and development occurs within the community, the
City must require that these services are available and coordinate their extension during the
development process, while at the same time protecting the primary intended use of public
rights-of-way and other public properties. This coordination and cooperation between the
various entities helps to avoid conflict with current and planned infrastructure in the right-of-
way and provides fair opportunity to access the right-of-way. Additionally, uncoordinated
utility installations in the public right-of-way may result in multiple street cuts and increased
public costs to maintain curbs, gutters, streets, and sidewalks.
The placement of utilities in the public right-of-way is regulated by the Tigard Community
Development Code. During the development review process, a city engineer approves plans
showing the location of utilities.New development is typically required to place utilities under-
ground unless they are already in existence above ground, or where the action would not be
feasible. In certain cases, where undergrounding is not feasible and the utility crosses or is
adjacent to a public right-of-way, an in-lieu of fee may be assessed and placed into a fund that
is used to move existing utilities underground else-where in the City.
The City has also recognized the demand for wireless communication services and adopted
regulations for the facilities necessary to provide them. The infra- structure needed to support
the services has a visual impact upon the community and collocation efforts are encouraged
by the City to minimize that impact. Collocation is the practice of placing the communication
equipment of two or more companies on one structure (wireless tower).
Tigard Comprehensive Plan,Public Facilities and Services 14
Key Findings:
• Telecommunications, electricity, video, and natural gas service are provided to
residents and business owners within the City of Tigard by private utilities. These
private utilities pay an annual right-of-way usage fee to the City as outlined in the Tigard
Municipal Code.
• As growth and development occurs within the community, the City must ensure that
private utility services are available and coordinate their extension during the
development process. •
• Collocation of wireless communication equipment and the location of the towers upon
which the equipment resides have a direct visual impact upon the community.
• As an equity principle, private companies should pay for the privilege of using public
property to conduct business.
• A key task of the City is to protect the public's investments and the primary intended
use of these assets.
Goal:
11.5 Private utilities provide the needed energy and communication services for the
community.
Policies:
1. The City shall require that all new development:
A. secure the required energy and communication utilities;
B. place new utilities underground, when feasible, or pay an in-lieu-of fee when crossing
or adjacent to a public right-of-way; and
C. provide necessary easements for energy and communication services.
2. The City shall require the placement of existing services underground, when feasible, or
pay an in-lieu-of fee during redevelopment or street construction.
3. The City shall coordinate with private utilities during installation to minimize public costs
to maintain curbs, gutters, streets, and sidewalks.
4. The City shall require the collocation of wireless communication services on existing
towers whenever possible.
5. The City shall manage the siting of wireless communication towers to minimize visual
impacts on the community.
6. The City shall manage private utility use of the public rights-of-way and other public lands
to:
A. protect the primary intended use of these assets;
B. provide fair opportunity to access these assets, including those involved in emerging
technologies;
C. protect the public's past and ongoing investments by assessing suffi- cient charges for
the privilege of using these public assets; and
D. ensure the community has equitable access to essential private utilities.
Recommended Action Measures:
Tigard Comprehensive Plan,Public Facilities and Services 15
i. Identify and map areas that are conducive to using in-lieu-of fees for placing utility
lines under ground during City projects.
ii. Continue implementing no-pavement-cut policies on identified streets.

SECTION III. BACKGROUND INFORMATION AND PROJECT SUMMARY
A Public Facility Plan (PFP) is required for every Oregon jurisdiction under Oregon Statewide Land Use Planning
Goal 11: Public Facilities and Services, and Oregon Administrative Rules (OAR) Chapter 660, Division 11: Public
Facilities Planning.Under the direction of the State of Oregon Department of Land Conservation and Development
(DLCD),the City of Tigard initiated its Periodic Review Work Program in 2010.The purpose of this work program
is to ensure that Tigard's Comprehensive Plan is updated,and in compliance with statewide planning goals,statutes,
and rules. Task 4 of Tigard's Periodic Review Work Program specifically requires an update to the Tigard PFP that
was originally adopted in 1991, and text amendments to the Public Facilities and Services chapter of the Tigard
Comprehensive Plan.Task 4 is the final task required in the City's Periodic Review Work Program.
This staff report addresses how the proposed updates to the Tigard PFP and Public Facilities and Services chapter
of the Tigard Comprehensive Plan meet all approval criteria as identified in Oregon Statewide Land Use Planning
Goals 1 (Citizen Involvement),2 (Land Use Planning),and 11 (Public Facilities and Services);Metro Urban Growth
Management Functional Plan,Title 8: Compliance Procedures;Tigard Comprehensive Plan Goals 1,2,and 11;and
Tigard Development Code Chapters 18.710 and 18.790.
On October 21, 2019, Planning Commission held a public hearing to consider this application (CPA2019-00002).
No public testimony was received. After a brief deliberation, Planning Commission unanimously recommended
approval of this application to City Council.
SECTION IV. APPLICABLE REVIEW CRITERIA AND FINDINGS
STATEWIDE LAND USE PLANNING GOALS
Goal 1: Citizen Involvement. To develop a citizen involvement program that insures the opportunity for
citizens to be involved in all phases of the planning process.
The City of Tigard maintains an ongoing citizen involvement program. To ensure citizens were provided the
opportunity to be involved in all phases of the planning process, city staff published public hearing notices in The
Tigard Times on October 3,2019 and November 7,2019. City staff mailed public hearing notices to individuals on
the citywide interested parties list, and to the neighboring jurisdictions of the City of Beaverton, City of Durham,
King City, City of Lake Oswego, City of Tualatin, and Washington County on September 30, 2019. Additionally,
city staff published public hearing notices,along with a copy of the PFP update and full text of comprehensive plan
amendments, on the City's website on September 30, 2019 and November 6,2019. This goal is met.
Goal 2: Land Use Planning. To establish a land use planning process and policy framework as a basis for
all decisions and actions related to use of land and to assure an adequate factual base for such decisions
and actions.
Goal 2 requires each local government in Oregon to have and follow a comprehensive land use plan and
implementing regulations. DLCD has reviewed the Tigard Comprehensive Plan for compliance with statewide
planning goals, and acknowledged that the plan is consistent with these goals. Additionally, the purpose of the
Periodic Review process is to ensure that local comprehensive plans are: updated to respond to changes in local,
regional, and state conditions; coordinated with other comprehensive plans and investments; and in compliance
with the statewide planning goals, statutes, and rules.
In 2010, the City of Tigard initiated its Periodic Review Work Program that was approved by DLCD (Attachment
1).Task 4 is the final task required in Tigard's Periodic Review Work Program,and it specifically requires completion
of the following subtasks:
PUBLIC FACILITY PLAN PAGE 2 OF 8
CPA2019-00002
1. Develop a Public Facilities Plan in accordance with Statewide Land Use Planning Goal 11 and OAR 660-
011-0010-45. Revise cooperative and urban service agreements consistent with Oregon Revised Statutes
(ORS) 195 as appropriate. Address and inventory sanitary sewer,water, storm drainage, and park facilities;
identify programmed and planned facilities, assess conditions, develop evaluation alternative
policy/implementation measures.
2. Incorporate Technical Analysis of Clackamas River Water Right Extension in Tigard Comprehensive Plan
(Statewide Land Use Planning). Identify relevant technical analysis from Lake Oswego/Tigard water
extension right granted by Oregon Water Resources Department.
The Tigard PFP update details how the City's existing facility master plans(stormwater,water,sanitary sewer,parks,
and trails),and the existing facility master plans for the River Terrace area (stormwater,water, sanitary sewer,parks,
and the funding strategy) meet the requirements of Subtask 1,as outlined above. The proposed amendments to the
Public Facilities and Services chapter of the Tigard Comprehensive Plan include a reference to the City's
intergovernmental agreement with the City of Lake Oswego regarding water supply, facilities, design, construction,
and operation,which meets the requirements of Subtask 2, as outlined above.This goal is met.
Goal 11: Public Facilities and Services.To plan and develop a timely, orderly and efficient arrangement of
public facilities and services to serve as a framework for urban and rural development.
Goal 11 states that each city with a population greater than 2,500 is required to create a PFP that meets its current
and long-range needs. The purpose of the PFP is to ensure that development in the City is guided and supported
by public facilities and services that are appropriate for the needs of the area to be served, and that those public
facilities and services are provided in a timely, orderly,and efficient arrangement.
Tigard's Periodic Review Work Program Task 4 specifically states that the following public facilities must be
included in the PFP: storm drainage,water, sanitary sewer, and park facilities.
Additionally, OAR 660-011-0010(1) states that a PFP must include the following items for each public facility:
(a) An inventory and general assessment of the condition of all the significant public facility systems which
support the land uses designated in the acknowledged comprehensive plan;
(b) A list of the significant public facility projects which are to support the land uses designated in the
acknowledged comprehensive plan. Public facility project descriptions or specifications of these projects as
necessary;
(c) Rough cost estimates of each public facility project;
(d) A map or written description of each public facility project's general location or service area;
(e) Policy statement(s) or urban growth management agreement identifying the provider of each public facility
system. If there is more than one provider with the authority to provide the system within the area covered
by the public facility plan, then the provider of each project shall be designated;
(f) An estimate of when each facility project will be needed;and
(g) A discussion of the provider's existing funding mechanisms and the ability of these and possible new
mechanisms to fund the development of each public facility project or system.
OAR 660-011-0010(3) also states: "Where all or part of an acknowledged comprehensive plan, facility master plan
either of the local jurisdiction or appropriate special district,capital improvement program,regional functional plan,
similar plan or any combination of such plans meets all or some of the requirements of this division, those plans,
or programs may be incorporated by reference into the public facility plan required by this division. Only those
referenced portions of such documents shall be considered to be a part of the public facility plan and shall be subject
to the administrative procedures of this division and ORS Chapter 197."
Accordingly, the Tigard PFP update details how the City's existing facility master plans (stormwater,water, sanitary
PUBLIC FACILITY PLAN PAGE 3 OF 8
CPA20I9-00002
sewer,parks,and trails),and the existing facility master plans for the River Terrace area (stormwater,water, sanitary
sewer,parks,and the funding strategy)plan for the timely,orderly,and efficient arrangement of public facilities and
services, and serve as a framework for development in the City.This goal is met.

construction, and operation with the City of Lake Oswego. The City also has agreements with the Tualatin Valley
Water District, the City of Beaverton, and the Lake Grove Water District for emergency water supplies. These
agreements ensure that the City secures a reliable, high quality, water supply to meet the existing and future needs
of the community.

plan includes an inventory and general assessment of the City's existing water system, supply sources, existing
infrastructure,and general operations.Additionally,the River Terrace Water System Master Plan Addendum(2014)
