TIGARD FACILITIES PLANNING Nadine discussed the City Facilities Consolidation (CFC) project which would be built on the current Public Works site. Public Works would relocate to an undetermined site.The project is currently in Phase 2 which includes determining the building size needs and a financial assessment. If Council approves proceeding on January 21, the last phase will include taking the project to Tigard residents for input and support. The maintenance backlog for the current buildings could reach $14 million by 2026 and the current buildings do not meet seismic standards. New construction is expected to cost$148 million compared to $180.7 million to maintain the current buildings. The current property tax rate would be increased to pay for it. Kenny discussed how the project would benefit downtown Tigard, community benefits, the long-term benefits, next steps including the timeline, and potential future redevelopment. Kirsten discussed the community engagement including activities to date and upcoming opportunities. 6. MAIN STREET GREEN STREET 30% DESIGN Andy shared the concept plan for the project. The current schedule forecasts construction starting in July 2021 with the bulk being completed by October 2021 with some work possibly continuing into 2022. It will include improved pedestrian crossings and the parking changes will net a loss of only one parking space to improve pedestrian safety.The TriMet bus stops will be reduced from four to two. Other necessary street work will take place at the same time to have less impact on businesses. Members discussed issues with the Main/Commercial St. and Main/Tigard St. intersections and where the Tigard Street Heritage Trail ends.
