2. Visitors.
Mr. George Marshall, Vice-President of Tualatin Development Company,
and Assistant Chief Art Taylor, Tualatin Rural Fire Protection District,
are scheduled to attend the meeting.
3. Resolution to approve audit report for FY 1970-71 and approve new
contract for FY 1971-72 at same fee.
Copies on the audit report were forwarded to each commissioner.
Suggested corrections and improvements will be implemented ASAP.
The auditor has requested to serve our account next year for the
same fee of $1400.
Recommendation: Approve.
4. Resolution to approve solicitation of bids for $500,000 of bonds and
approve the notice of the bond sale.
Ken Baines will have a prepared resolution for the Board's approval.
John Wied and Ken Baines, after consultation with the Board at the last
meeting, considered it advisable to issue a partial bond sale of million
dollars at this time. This amount should be ample to accomplish needed
capital improvements for the next 18 - 24 months. It was recommended that
the bond payments become due in January with interest due in January and
July. This will enable the district to make part of the principal payment
from tax revenues received in December of each year.
Following is a list of ,he proposed projects that should be completed
prior to May 1972. If accomplished, there is an excellent possibility Ghat
no water restrictions will be necessary next summer. Oh happy day.

5. Resolution to approve public hearing on November 9, 1971 regarding water
rate changes.
Since the new bond payments will become due in January, it would be
appropriate to consider an increase in water rates, effective December 20,
1971. A public hearing must be held and each customer must be notified of
such hearing. Bills in September and October can be stamped with the necessary
information. A public hearing date of November 9th at 6:30 p.m. is recommended.
The regular board meeting would commence immediately following at 7:30 p.m. the
same evening.
The following table summarizes the annual payments for each $100,000
borrowed for 20 years @ 6% interest:
Amount Borrowed Annual Payment
$ 500,000 $ 43,000
600,000 51,600

ADMINISTRATOR'S REPORT (Continued)
A survey was taken of each customer's account to determine the amount
over the minimum that was consumed during the past year. The following

Some very informative data has been accumulated by the Columbian Research
Institute regarding water rates charged by the 9 water districts and 2 munici-
palities located in eastern Washington County. (see attached documents).
This agency recently completed an exhaustive study on the economic feasibility
of the Tualatin Hills project. Table 5 lists the past and projected tax rates
of the water districts. Table 14 shows a substantial increase in water costs
to TWD customers if unification were effected, Table 19 is invaluable as a
guide when considering an increase in water rates. It is noted that TWD has,
by far, the lowest annual cumulative (taxes and rates) wa ,er costs in eastern
Washington County of $67.80 for a household using 1500 ft month living in a
$20,000 home. A 100 increase in water rates over the minimum would result in
annual water rate increase of $10.80 or a total of $78.60. Following is a table
reflecting the annual increase and total cost per year over the minimum of
25o/100ft (350 to 400)

ADMINISTRATOR'S REPORT (Continued)
Nixonomics preclude a rate increase prior to November 12th, but there is
hope that this restriction will be lifted for utilities after that date.
Recommendation: Approve public hearing for November 9, 1971.
6, Resolution to authorizeayment of water bills to King City Branch of
the First National Bank, including opening a checking account.
Many King City residents have requested ;o make water bill payments at
the King City Branch of the First National Bank. Sylvia Langfeldt, manager,
stated that all other utility bills are accepted there and arrangements could
easily be made to carry our account also.
The cost would be 7¢ per bill paid at their office. Assuming 400 of the
700 accounts (in King City) make payment there it would amount to $28, bi—
monthly.
Such an arrangement would significantly reduce the administrative load
at this office.
It would be advisable to open a checking account also.
Recommendation: Approve.
7. Resolution to absorb difference in cost between 8" and 12" pipe instal—
lation on S.W. Bonita Road to 74th Avenue.
Western Puget Die Casting Company, located at 74th and Bonita Road, has
applied for water service. A pipe line across Fanno Creek is necessary in
order to serve them. Anything less than the installation of a 12" pipe would
be a waste of time and effort. It should be understood that any consideration
to absorb the difference in cost between an 8" and 12" main would result in an
actual expenditure of about $2,500 from the General Fund. In all previous
cases in which TWD absorbed the difference in cost there was no actual loss to
the district as i:, was accounted for with the 18% overhead and engineering fees
plus the reimbursed labor of our personnel. This is a project that we cannot
perform due to lack of proper equipment. However, the Fanno Creek crossing is
a very important link toward the main on 72nd and Bonita Road, a connection to
which we hope to make some day.
The actual cost to Western Puget will be considerably more than usual due
to the creek crossing alone, without the additional burden of paying the cost
of a 12" main.
Recommendation: Approve.

ADMINISTRATOR'S REPOT (Continued)
8, Approval of Staff Reports.
9. Resolution to approve annexations.
The Boundary Review Commission has indicated that they will accept
requests for annexation to water districts those properties presently annexed
,o municipalities, provided a city resolution is passed approving such
annexation, subsequent to the resolution of the water district. Four parcels
of land remain in King City that the TWD is presently serving and should be
annexed.
We have heard numerous complaints from King City residents regarding
the out-of-district fee. This annexation would resolve the problem.
If the above procedure proves acceptable and valid an attempt will be
made to accomplish similar annexations within the City of Tigard.
Recommendation: Approve.
10. Resolution to pay vouchers.
11. Other business.
12. Purchase of new 3/4-ton truck.
At the last meeting two bids were received for the purchase of the new
3/4-ton pickup truck. They were:
Carr Chevrolet $2,849.33
Knauss Chevrolet 2,929.63
You directed me to review the bids as submitted and ensure that the
specifications were fully included therein. A close examination of the bids
revealed that several items were omitted. Therefore, all bids were cancelled
and new quotations were requested with adjusted specifications. The following
quotations were received on September 2nd, and included the trade-in of the
1966 Chevrolet pickup truck.
Knauss Chevrolet $2,910.56
Carr Chevrolet 3,014.77
Knauss was awarded the contract and the truck was placed on order.

ADMINISTRATOR'S REPORT (Continued)
13. Quit pumping?
A letter from Mr. Gerald C. Cach of Cach Realty was received on August
16th in which he states that the TWD will be held responsible if continued
pumping of water results in his well going dry. He also desired to know
how much water is pumped and stored.
A response by this office was not considered appropriate.
The matter was referred to Ken Baines.
14. Engineering services
A few registered, professional engineers have suggested that they be
allowed to design and supervise some construction projects in the district,
particularly subdivisions. Mr. Ron Sorenson, President of Tualatin Develop—
ment Company, feels that engineering services should be donated now that a
registered, professional engineer is on the staff.
"'"'' A quick check with other districts reveals that only one engineer is
authorized to perform work within each district. A review of other engineer's
plans clearly shows that they do no understand our water system in regards to
fire protection, size of mains, number of gate valves, etc.
It would appear premature in our development and rapid expansion to offer
free engineering services.
It is recommended that all engineering work, except major projects, con—
tinue to be accomplished at this office. Further, that the usual be charged
for all engineering services.
15. Preparation of specifications, technical specifications, contracts, etc.
for construction projects within the district.
As the workload becomes heavier it is impossible ho keep pace unless
private contractors are utilized for many pipe laying jobs. This is to be
encouraged, but proper procedures must be explicitly followed so that the
district is protected against lawsuits involving injury or death of workmen
and that the job is accomplished in accordance with the specifications. Such
documents are in the process of being prepared.

ADMINISTRATOR'S REPOT (Continued)
16. Confusion
On June 8, 1971 the Board agreed to absorb the difference in cost between
an 8" and 12" pipe along S.W. Fischer Road, between 124th and 131st for Tualatin
Development Company. This was with the assumption that TWD personnel would
participate in the actual construction. In other words, there would be no
out-of-pocket expense to the district.
Tualatin Development Company now believes that they can obtain the services
of a private contractor or perform the installation themselves at a reduced
cost. (I personally do not believe that they can do the job cheaper, but that
is beside the point). To absorb the difference in cost with this arrangement
would mean an expenditure of about $3,000 from our General Fund. In view of
this you may desire to change the agreement. In any event, it is strongly
recommended that we not deviate from our "game" plan and that a 12" main be
installed.
For many years TWD has had a difficult time getting Tualatin Development
Company to abide by the rules and regulations. I have talked personally with
the president and several of the vice-presidents regarding the situation.
These conversations were followed up with letters setting forth precisely
the requirements of the district. In spite of these conversations and letters
they often persist in "going it alone". The last straw was the commencement
of a pipe line construction to the Garden Villas without our knowledge.
On August 26th a letter was sent to Tualatin Development Company (a copy
was forwarded to each commissioner) advising them of cessation of new water
service unless regulations were followed.
On August 30th, Mr. Sorenson, Mr. George Marshall, Mr. Bill McMonagle,
and Mr. Roy Brown appeared at this office for consultation with John Miller and
myself. After an hour and a half it was decided to let the Board of Commissioners
resolve any differences of opinion.
Since our discussion they have been much more cooperative and are advising
us of their water construction projects.
17. Installation of fire hydrants on private property
The City of Tigard Ordnance #70-14.4 of October 26, 1970 in which all con-
struction plans must be approved by the fire district is in dire need of modi-
fication. The authority granted to the fire district far exceeds its responsi-
bilities and places an excessive burden upon both developers and the TWD,
-7-
ADMINISTRATOR'S REPORT (Continued)
I was a supporter of the original ordnanee ',o ensure that fire protection
was afforded when new buildings and mains were constructed.
After the ordnance was in effect for 6 months I realized the need for
modification. A letter was forwarded to the City Council (attention: City
Administrator). To this date I have not received the courtesy of reply or
acknowledgement of the letter nor has it been placed on the agenda at any
council meeting.
The essence of my letter reflected the unfairness of the ordnance in
which the fire district dictates where and how many fire hydrants must be
installed prior to occupancy. No consideration is given to cost for the
fire hydrants or main extensions, work involved by the TWD, etc. The fire
district has all the authority, but absolutely no responsibility of its
decisions. Presently, the developer or builder has no recourse for appeal.
It is my belief ;hat the fire chief should act as an advisor only on fire
protection and that the Director, Public Works, who is responsible to the
City Council, be the final authority on such matters.
Within the past year the requirement for fire hydrants has been reduced
to every 150 feet for multiple dwellings and commercial buildings. I am not
an expert on fire protection, but it appears to be an excessive burden upon
developers to expect to fund such installations.
A review of the succeeding paragraph regarding pipe laying projects
clearly reflects the number of fire hydrants installed by the TWD. These
fire hydrants are considered necessary and are located on public right- of-
ways. The fire district is now requiring that developers extend mains on
private property solely for a fire hydrant installation. This is the point
where I object. A dead-end main on private property does absolutely nothing
for our water system. It can only cause the district numerous problems later.
There are areas within the district where fire hydrants are located on
private property, but in all cases except one, the main extension to the fire
hydrant is for a dual purpose, such as either domestic service or fire sprink-
lers. The one exception is at Twality School where a fire hydrant exists at
the end of an 8" line. Ironically, it was this 8" line that broke last year
causing $2500 damage and paid for by our insurance company. At that time the
insurance agent indicated that he would have to take another look at insurance
coverage for damage done due to public utility mains located on private property.
We have been most cooperative in installing fire hydrants on public right-
of-ways, It is a relatively simple job from an administrative and actual con-
struction standpoint. No drawings, plans, permits, or easements are required.
mow

ADMINISTRATOR'S REPORT (Continued)
Further, John Miller and his crew can install a fire hydrant within 6-8
hours on an existing main. To extend a main with a fire hydrant on private
property is another matter, Whether the TWD or a private contractor installs
the main extension the following must be accomplished: plans and specifica-
tions prepared; permits obtained from city/county and Oregon State Board of
Health; easement document prepared and recorded; letters prepared to other
agencies advising of main installation, etc. The actual main installation
may require 3 to 5 days. Finally, the TWD is forever responsible for the
main on private property, Recently we had to relocate a main on an easement
because the developer desired to build on top of it. (Canterbury Square
Shopping Center). We do not have the time to "spin our wheels" on these
types of projects.
In view of the above, John Miller and I strongly recommend that the
Board establish a policy that mains will not, as a general rule, be extended
on private property for the sole purpose of a fire hydrant installation.
The city and fire district contribution to the implementation of the
ordnance is insignificant. If the city and fire district demand such
installations, then the following requirements should be accomplished prior
`"u"° to construction:
(1) Personnel assistance from either the city or fire district to
administer the program.
(2) Use of the fire district's adjacent office for drafting plans, etc.
(3) City or fire district assume responsibility for damage claims due
to main breaks, etc. , on private property.

funds will be necessary if the consolidation of Metzger, Garden Home
and Progress materializes.
Tigard plans the construction of two, one million gallon reservoirs

All districts, with the exception of Aloha-Huber, use Portland water in one way or another - only source available, purchases
from a district that buys from Portland, uses as a main source and supplements with wells or uses as a source secondary to
another. Aloha-Huber is in the process of connecting with Wolf Creek at the Sunset Highway and 185th to augment their other
sources. =Y`
Most districts charge a higher rate to users outside their district.

Gentlemen:
Gerald C. Cach & Joan L. Cach, residing at 15170 S. W.
Sunrise Lane, Tigard, Oregon, also known as tax lot
3500, 3502, 3501 and 3400 of Map 2515 Washington County
Oregon from Assessor's map, will hold Tigard Water
District responsible in the future for any additional
pumping of water that might harm the present supply of
water at the above address.
When the Tigard Water District sunk their well deeper,
in 1969, most of the wells on the west side of Bull
Mountain lost their water supply and they hooked up to
City water or drilled deeper. We elected the latter at
a cost of $3500.00. We do not want to go through this
again and are thus writing you this letter before you
pump more. We would like to know how much you pump at
this time and how much water is stored.
Very truly yours,
CASH' s RLTY.
