BRIEFING – Transportation System Plan (TSP) Sr. Transportation Planner Dave Roth told the commissioners that it had been about a year since he was last before the Planning Commission. He noted that he will likely come before the Commission again in less than a ye ar when they get into the actual adoption process of the plan – unless there’s a need for him to come back sooner ; he’ll be happy to do that if that’s requested. He shared his screen and went over a PowerPoint (Exhibit B) regarding the project that’s been underway since approximately September. He went over the basic Transportation Planning Rule (TPR) requirements for Transportation System Plans – a “TSP-101” of sorts. He December 7, 2020 Page 4 of 5 talked about the key plan components and the draft TSP vision and goals. He went over public engagement and the current website as well as the project schedule. He led a brief discussion regarding what the commissioners would like to see out of the TSP to best serve the community. Lastly, he spoke about the next steps. There will be Planning Commission meetings as needed during plan development, and in the fall of 2021 they’re looking to present the Plan for adoption to the Planning Commission and the City Council. BRIEFING – New Strategic Plan Tom gave a brief introduction regarding the new updated Strategic Plan. He noted that the staff present are on the guidance team - Nicole Hendrix, Gary Pagenstecher and Lloyd Purdy , and that they would be talking about the various strategic priorities. These staff are charged with guiding the implementation of the plan and keeping the City t rue to the plan. At this point he turned it over to Nicole Hendrix who noted that this was her first time before the Planning Commission. She introduced herself as the Sr. Management Analyst in the City Manager’s office. She’s also on the Guidance Team. Sh e pulled up a PowerPoint (Exhibit C) and went over the input approach and what that all entailed. She noted that the flyers that they’d created and distributed to the apartment complexes in the community and in the neighborhoods. She spoke about the refreshed vision. The strategic vision now is “Tigard: an equitable community that is walkable, healthy, and accessible for everyone .” She went over definitions of those new visions and told how they’d adjusted to include th e priorities. She spoke about Strategic Priority No. 1 - “Set the standard for excellence in public service and customer experience ” and the steps planned to accomplish those. Project planner Gary Pagenstecher was introduced and continued with the PowerPoint (Exhibit C) about Strategic Priority 2 which is to: “Create a well-connected, attractive, and accessible pedestrian network.” He spoke about the importance of “walkability ,” connectivity, and the importance of inclusiveness. After Gary’s summary of Strategic Priority 2, he gave it over to Economic Development Manager Lloyd Purdy. Lloyd went over the third Strategic Priority (Exhibit C) which is to “Ensure development and growth support the vision.” He noted that he believes this priority likely has the most substance for the Planning Commission. The priority is to ensure that development and growth support the vision. Some would say that is very much the responsibility of the Planning Commission. He noted that they’d gathered community input on access, congestion, an d community identity. An example of actions would be to blend land uses, support affordable housing and a range of housing options, as well as mitigation of climate change impacts. An example of metrics would be to measure residential, employment, and commercial density. Lloyd noted that a lot of the improvements we could make to the city are tied to our employment lands. So , there’s a lot of work that the commission is doing that supports the strategic vision. Tom McGuire noted that Gary Pagenstecher is the department’s project planner and a lead implementer. Gary is charged with putting together the department’s strategic implementation December 7, 2020 Page 5 of 5 plan. If commissioners have questions about future projects, he encouraged them to feel free to get in touch with Gary at garyp@tigard-or.gov.

If Council adopts findings to approve Case No. ZCA2020-00002, the effective date of this annexation will be upon the effective date of the approving ordinance, and filing with the Oregon Secretary of State, as outlined in ORS 222.180. C. The person or entity proposing the boundary change has the burden to demonstrate that the proposed boundary change meets the applicable criteria. The proposed boundary change meets the applicable criteria, as demonstrated through the findings in this staff report. D. To approve a boundary change, the reviewing entity shall apply the criteria and consider the factors set forth in subsections (D) and (E) of section 3.09.045. The factors set forth in Metro Code Sections 3.09.045.D and 3.09.045.E have been previously addressed in this report. (CDC 18.720.030 Continued) A.2. The annexation is in the city’s best interest. As addressed under Metro Code Section 3.09.045.D.2 of this staff report, this proposed annexation will help promote the timely, orderly and economic provision of City of Tigard public facilities and services, and eliminate or avoid unnecessary duplication of facilities or services. Accordingl y, staff finds this proposed annexation is in the City’s best interest. B. Assignment of comprehensive plan and zoning designations. The comprehensive plan designation and the zoning designation placed on the property is the city’s base zone that most closely implements the city’s or county’s comprehensive plan map designation. The assignment of these designations occurs automatically and concurrently with the annexation. In the case of land that carries county designations, the city will convert the county’s comprehensive plan map and zoning designations to the city designations that are the most similar. A zone change is required if the applicant requests a comprehensive plan map or zoning map designation other than the existing designations. A request for a zone change may be processed concurrently with an annexation application or after the annexation has been approved. Within the Washington Square Regional Center, the assignment of city comprehensive plan and zoning designations will be as provided in the Washington Square Regional Center Phase II Implementation Plan, dated June 29, 2001, Figure 4 Adopted Zoning Designations. C. Conversion table. Table 18.720.1 summarizes the conversion of the county’s plan and zoning designations to city designations that are most similar. CDC TABLE 18.720.1 CONVERSION TABLE FOR COUNTY AND CITY COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND ZONING DESIGNATIONS RIETMAN ANNEXATION PAGE 7 OF 11 ZCA2020-00002 Washington County Land Use Districts/Plan Designation City of Tigard Zoning City of Tigard Plan Designation R-6 Res. 6 units per acre R-7 Medium-density residential CDC Table 18.720.1 summarizes conversions for City of Tigard comprehensive plan and zoning designations that are most similar and most closely implement Washington County’s comprehensive plan and zoning designations. As outlined in the table above, the assignment of city designations for the subject property will be based on these conversions, and will occur automatically and concurrently with the proposed annexation. Under Washington County designations, the subject site is R-6 (Residential, 6 units per acre). Upon approval of this proposed annexation, the subject site will be R-7 (Medium-Density Residential), under City of Tigard designations. CITY OF TIGARD COMPREHENSIVE PLAN Goal 1.1: Provide citizens, affected agencies, and other jurisdictions the opportunity to participate in all phases of the planning process. The City of Tigard maintains an ongoing citizen involvement program. To ensure citizens were provided an opportunity to be involved in all phases of the planning process, city staff issued public notices for this proposed quasi-judicial annexation. City staff posted public hearing notices in four public places on November 16, 2020 (Tigard City Hall, Tigard Permit Center, Tigard Public Works, and at the subject site); city staff mailed public hearing notices to all necessary parties, and neighboring property owners within 500 feet of the subject site on November 9, 2020; and the City published a public hearing notice in the Daily Journal of Commerce for more than two successive weeks (with publish dates on November 16, 2020, November 23, 2020, and November 30, 2020) prior to the December 7, 2020 public hearing before Planning Commission. City staff also posted the public hearing information on the City of Tigard website, and the staff report was also posted on this website more than 15 days prior to the public hearing before Planning Commission.

As detailed in the findings below, staff finds that all public facilities and services are available to the proposed annexation area, and have adequate capacity to serve the subject site. Stormwater – City of Tigard Public Works Department. The applicant is not requesting City of Tigard stormwater service at this time. However, city maps show there is an existing 12-inch stormwater main located adjacent to the property, in SW 133rd Avenue. Accordingly, city stormwater facilities have adequate capacity to serve the subject site. Water – City of Tigard Public Works Department. The subject property is located in the Tigard Water Service area, and is currently served by an existing eight-inch water main in SW 133rd Avenue. Accordingly, city water facilities have adequate capacity to continue serving the subject property. Sewer – City of Tigard Public Works Department. The applicant proposes to annex the subject site in order to connect to City of Tigard sewer. This is consistent with City of Tigard Comprehensive Plan Goal 11.3, Policy 6: “The City shall require a property to be located within the City limits prior to receiving City RIETMAN ANNEXATION PAGE 8 OF 11 ZCA2020-00002 wastewater services.” City of Tigard sewer infrastructure is available by an existing eight -inch sanitary main and an existing sanitary lateral located at the front of the property, in SW 133 rd Avenue. City sewer facilities have adequate capacity to serve the subject site. Police – City of Tigard Police Department. The Washington County Sheriff’s Office currently provides police services to the subject properties. If this annexation request is approved, the site will be withdrawn from the Enhanced Sheriff’s Patrol District , and the City of Tigard Police Department will provide public safety services to the site. Fire – Tualatin Valley Fire and Rescue. The subject properties are located within the service area for TVF&R. Accordingly, TVF&R currently provides fire protection and emergenc y medical services to the site, which will not change with this annexation request. Parks – City of Tigard Public Works Department. The applicant proposes to annex one property, totaling 0.75 acres in size, into the City of Tigard. Staff has reviewed the applicant’s proposal and determined that this request will not adversely impact the City’s ability or capacity to provide for parks and recreational needs. Streets – City of Tigard Engineering Division. The subject property fronts on SW 133rd Avenue, which will be annexed to into the City of Tigard to the centerline of the right -of-way. Accordingly, the subject property will be withdrawn from the Washington County Urban Road Maintenance District. The subject property is currently developed with an existing single detached house, and it is not anticipated that this annexation will generate additional traffic, or negatively impact the City’s existing transportation system. Goal 11.1, Policy 4: The City shall require a property to be located within the City limits prior to receiving stormwater services. The applicant is not requesting City of Tigard stormwater service at this time. However, city maps show there is an existing 12-inch stormwater main located adjacent to the property, in SW 133rd Avenue. Accordingly, city stormwater facilities have adequate capacity to serve the subject site. Goal 11.3, Policy 6: The City shall require a property to be located within the City limits prior to receiving wastewater services. The applicant proposes to annex the subject site in order to connect to City of Tigar d sewer. This is consistent with the policy outlined above. City of Tigard sewer infrastructure is available by an existing eight - inch sanitary main and an existing sanitary lateral located at the front of the property, in SW 133 rd Avenue. City sewer facilities have adequate capacity to serve the subject site. Goal 12: To provide and encourage a safe, convenient, and economic transportation system. The subject property fronts on SW 133rd Avenue, which will be annexed to into the City of Tigard to the centerline of the right-of-way. Accordingly, the subject property will be withdrawn from the Washington County Urban Road Maintenance District. The subject property is currently developed with an existing single detached house, and it is not anticipated that this annexation will generate additional traffic, or negatively impact the City’s existing transportation system. Goal 14.2, Policy 1: The City shall assign a Tigard zoning district designation to annexed property that most closely conforms to the existing Washington County zoning designation for that property. RIETMAN ANNEXATION PAGE 9 OF 11 ZCA2020-00002 The applicable Tigard zoning district designation for the subject property is addressed under CDC Sections 18.720.030.B and 18.720.030.C of this report. Goal 14.2, Policy 2: The City shall ensure capacity exists, or can be developed, to provide needed urban level services to an area when approving annexation. As addressed under Comprehensive Plan, Goal 11: Public Facilities and Services of this report , staff finds that all urban level services are available to the proposed annexation area, and have sufficient capacity to provide service. Goal 14.2, Policy 3: The City shall approve proposed annexations based on findings that the request: A. Can be accommodated by the City’s public facilities and services; and As addressed under Comprehensive Plan, Goal 11: Public Facilities and Services of this report , staff finds that all City of Tigard public facilities and services are available to the proposed annexation area, and have sufficient capacity to provide service. B. Is consistent with applicable state statute. As addressed later in this report, staff finds the applicable provisions of ORS 222 have been met, consistent with this policy. Goal 14.2, Policy 4: The City shall evaluate and may require that parcels adjacent to proposed annexations be included to: A. Avoid creating unincorporated islands within the City; B. Enable public services to be efficiently and effectively extended to the entire area; or C. Implement a concept plan or sub-area master plan that has been approved by the Planning Commission or City Council. The subject property (14715 SW 133rd Avenue; WCTM 2S109AC, Tax Lot 600) is bordered to the north and west by the City of Tigard, and is bordered to the south and east by unincorporated Washington County. Because the subject site is surrounded on two sides by the City of Tigard, this annexation will not create an “island” of unincorporated land, and it is not necessary to include the adjacent properties in this annexation request. This annexation will enable public services to be efficiently and effectively extended to the subject property. There is no concept plan or sub-area master plan that has been approved by the Planning Commission or City Council that is applicable to this property.

In 2019, the City embarked on a journey to refresh Tigard’s Strategic Plan, last updated in 2015. The purpose of a strategic plan is to set a focus for how the city’s vision and direction will be achieved. It is a road map to guide where we are going and convey what our city aspires to be. A strategic plan helps an organization allocate resources, set priorities, and states what it will say yes to. In order to understand the state of the vision and goals, community members and city staff were interviewed, surveyed, and asked about what the city’s future direction should be now. We are presenting a 2020 refreshed plan that will guide us for the next 5 years, through 2025. We are updating the plan in an unprecedented year, when we are all experiencing unimaginable events, and working in ways we had not planned for. Demands on our city and community are different than we could have expected, knowing that this plan will probably need to change during its lifetime. COVID-19 and the uprising for racial equity have shifted and created greater focus for the city’s strategic plan in the following ways: • “Most walkable” has become a priority that has greater focus on healthy, equitable outcomes. • The need for our whole city organization to enroll in the plan has led to one internal-facing priority. • The need to measure our progress has prompted much more specific priorities, objectives and metrics to make our planned actions clear. The city organized a committee representing every city department, called the Guidance Team. This group’s purpose is to finish updating the strategic plan and be the people who would ensure that the plan will be implemented. The Guidance Team, together with the leadership of every city department, are responsible for ensuring that the plan gets done and that city staff and community members are engaged making the plan a reality. We are excited to bring energy and commitment to carrying out these priorities going forward. City Manager, Marty Wine A vision highlights where we want to go as a city and what we want to be. Our new vision emphasizes equity, walkability, health, and accessibility. Framing the Vision  Equity – Just and fair inclusion into a society in which all can participate, prosper, and reach their full potential. 1  Walkability – A walkable environment supports and allows for a choice to participate in active forms of transportation such as cycling and includes people traveling with or without a mobility aid. A walkable community is foundational to an equitable and sustainable community. 2  Accessibility – Providing equivalent ease of use and opportunity for all people to interact with our services, processes, and infrastructure.  Healthy – Supporting the community’s physical, economic, and environmental well-being which improves all aspects of health. 2  CITY OF TIGARD 1 Definition by PolicyLink 2 Inspired by America Walks definition STRATEGIC These are the three priorities that support our vision: Set the standard for excellence in public service and customer experience. Create a well-connected, attractive, and accessible pedestrian network. Ensure development and growth support the vision. 1 2 3 The city identified three strategic priorities to help carry out the vision. Within each strategic priority are objectives, actions, and timeframe for completion. Timeframes follow the city’s Fiscal Year (FY) which goes from July 1 – June 30. Tied to the objectives are metrics that indicate and track achievement of the actions and overall objective.

Our vision highlights where we want to go and what we want to be, while our strategic priorities point to how we are going to achieve our vision. Proactively planning provides an opportunity to grow the city in a way that is thoughtful and unique. This plan accomplishes this by leveraging and building on Tigard’s existing strengths and aiming to continue to grow Tigard as a thriving, desirable place to live, work and play. This strategic plan also informs the allocation of limited city resources to both long- and short-term goals.

Capital Improvement Program (CIP): Tigard’s 6-year plan for matching the cost of large-scale improvements—like fixing roads, water and sewer systems—to anticipated revenues, like taxes and bonds. Climate Ready Landscapes: Designing landscapes in a way that adapts and prepares for climate change. Community Development Block Grant (CDBG): A federal program that provides annual grants on a formula basis to states, cities, and counties to develop viable urban communities by providing decent housing and a suitable living environment, and by expanding economic opportunities, principally for low- and moderate-income persons. Complete Streets: A transportation policy and design approach that requires streets to be planned, designed, operated, and maintained to enable safe, convenient and comfortable travel and access for users of all ages and abilities regardless of their mode of transportation. Downtown Urban Renewal District: An area encompassing Downtown Tigard and defined in the City Center Urban Renewal Plan. Greenhouse Gas (GHG): A gas that absorbs and emits radiant energy within the thermal infrared range. Metro: The regional government of the Portland metropolitan area. Mixed Use: A variety of complementary and integrated uses, such as, but not limited to, residential, office, manufacturing, retail, public or entertainment, in a compact urban form. Parks Master Plan (PMP): A document that guides development of park, recreation, and trails in the city.
