STAFF RECOMMENDATION / ACTION REQUEST This request for a Proclamation was made by Muslim Educational Trust President and long-time city supporter, Wajdi Said, who noted, "Over what remains of this year then well into 2022, the Portland and Salem metro areas will resettle several communities forced from their homeland right after the US-led military withdrawal from Afghanistan. At present, around 5,000 new Oregonians are projected to arrive under the Department of State's Special Immigrant Visa program. Many more families in urgent need of resettlement assistance will follow under a variety of other immigration programs. Our success in integrating our newest families and their communities depends so much on settled and new Oregonians meeting." City teammates recommend issuing the proclamation. KEY FACTS AND INFORMATION SUMMARY In September, the City Council proclaimed Welcome Week in Tigard. This month our friends and partners at Muslim Educational Trust have planned a welcoming meal to be shared with city leaders, business leaders and members of the Afghan community who have been here more than 30 years and newly arrived refugees and immigrants. Tigard's commitment to building an equitable community that is accessible for everyone is in line with the messaging found on the Welcoming America website: https://welcomingamerica.org/ "Our nation's founding principles are as important today as they have ever been. We have the opportunity to reaffirm these values by being more, not less, welcoming to people no matter where they come from or how they choose to worship. This means we are committed to listening to our neighbors and building community with everyone who lives here. We know it's not what you look like or where you were born that makes you American—it's how you live your life and what you do that defines you in this country." OTHER ALTERNATIVES Council could decline to issue the proclamation. COUNCIL GOALS, POLICIES, APPROVED SYSTEM PLANS This proclamation supports the community promise we made (5 E's) Equity, Environment, Economy, Engagement and Excellence as well as our Strategic Vision to become an equitable community that is walkable, healthy and accessible for everyone.

INTRODUCTION TO METRO COUNCILOR ROSENTHAL Metro Councilor Rosenthal attended the meeting to meet the Council and ask about any concerns they have. He said there are seven cities in Metro District 3, and he wants to represent all interests and do what he can to make Metro a servant of the local jurisdictions to the extent possible. He asked for any questions or comments about Metro. Mayor Snider noted he shared a frustration with Councilor Rosenthal previously about not getting a reply from Metro and within 12 hours he received one. He thanked him for his assistance. He asked Council members to introduce themselves and mention their interests and concerns. Council introduced themselves and identified some priorities: • Smart growth • Transportation infrastructure and transit support to reach new developments • SW Corridor—What is next for this project? • Affordable housing opportunities—how will the policies work for Tigard? • Highway 99W congestion • River Terrace expansion • Alternative and electric (green) transportation • Parks—Green spaces are even more valuable to residents as areas become denser • Ensure future Metro tax measures involve both citizen and business coalitions Councilor Rosenthal acknowledged the importance of efforts to move forward on transportation to get people from the proposed areas in River Terrace and King City to where they need to go. He said Highway 99W needs a lot of work. Regarding the Affordable Housing measure, he said Metro is on track to build one and one-half times more affordable housing units than originally planned with the bond measure. Supportive services will need to be supplied by local governments and agencies. Mayor Snider said he wanted to impart how important it is from the city's perspective that when regional measures get passed, each jurisdiction receives services in some form in or around their communities. He noted there are a number of communities in southeast Washington County, far TIGARD CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES — March 2, 2021 City of Tigard 1 13125 SW Hall Blvd.,Tigard,OR 97223 www.tigard-or.gov 1 Page 2 of 9 from Hillsboro,needing services. Resources Tigard citizens vote for need to make it to places where our community members can access them. Councilor Rosenthal asked if there were any solid waste questions or interest in more reliable household hazardous waste disposal or more frequent Styrofoam collection. Mayor Snider asked about the cost. Councilor Rosenthal was unsure of the cost but had heard from Beaverton that this has been an issue since Far West Recycling left the area. Mayor Snider said more frequent access is desirable,but it would need to be weighed against the cost. Councilor Goodhouse mentioned the Agilyx company in Tigard and said they are seeking a process where haulers could collect polystyrene waste and packing materials and drop them off at the Agilyx plant for processing. Metro Councilor Rosenthal commented that he would be interested in a tour of the Agilyx facility. Council President Lueb said residents are interested in composting services, but the haulers need a reliable place to accept it. Mayor Snider thanked Metro Councilor Rosenthal for coming to the meeting. 5. LEGISLATIVE PUBLIC HEARING: CONSIDER ORDINANCE ADOPTING TIGARD MUNICIPAL CODE CHAPTER 5.24 RELATED TO TRANSPORTATION NETWORK COMPANY (TNC) POLICY A. Mayor Snider opened the public hearing. B. Hearing Procedures—Mayor Snider announced that anyone may testify by phone and should call in to get in the queue now by calling 503-966-4101. C. Senior Transportation Planner Roth gave the staff report and a slide presentation proposing a new Tigard Municipal Code Chapter 5.24 with policies related to Transportation Network Companies (TNCs). He thanked stakeholders including Anna Richter Taylor, Sam Cho, Tigard City Attorney Shelby Rihala, and Mark Williams and Eric Hesse from the Portland Bureau of Transportation. He gave policy context and said several Strategic Plan actions support the proposed regulations and policies. A TNC is a ride-hailing company (also known as a transportation network company) that matches passengers with drivers of vehicles for hire using smartphone apps. Usually the vehicles are owned by the drivers. The most common TNCs are Uber and Lyft. Unlike taxis,TNC rides cannot be hailed from the street. He said several actions in the city's Strategic Plan are supported by these policies and regulations. Mr. Roth said cities set standards to make sure the TNCs are operating safely, fairly and are accessible.The cities of Eugene, Springfield,Ashland,Medford, Gresham and Portland already have regulations and fees for TNCs. Portland's Bureau of Transportation has regulated TNCs since 2014. Under the program the city collects 50 cents from every ride to pay for programs such as vehicle inspections, driver background checks, driver education and training and to support the PDXWAV accessible ride program. They require specific insurance,have zero tolerance for drug and alcohol,require an app on their phone for TIGARD CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES — March 2, 2021 City of Tigard 1 13125 SW Hall Blvd.,Tigard,OR 97223 www.tigard-or.gov 1 Page 3 of 9 a ride that accommodates wheelchairs and background reviews on every driver. Between 2014 and 2019 PBOT inspectors suspended or revoked 168 Uber or Lyft drivers for things the companies failed to identify during background checks. Through participating in the PBOT program, the city would receive safe drivers operating in Tigard, safe vehicles and equitable access. Tigard would receive criminal background checks and driving history reviews of Uber and Lyft drivers.A driver would not be permitted to operate here if they have a violent felony conviction, sex offense or recent traffic crime convictions,including driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol or leaving the scene of a traffic injury. The vehicles must display company logos,pass ASE safety inspections and have properly functioning horns,lights and signals. The policy ensures equity by requiring drivers to accept requests from any location within the city, including requests from persons using wheelchairs.There is zero tolerance for discrimination. Tigard's engineers, transportation planners and policy makers will have access to data on the number and location of trips in Tigard,which will give a more complete understanding of TNC impacts on the transportation system. Senior Transportation Planner Roth said a partnership with PBOT would leverage Portland's existing rules and regulatory approach. Benefits include the ability to enact with minimum time and resources on Tigard's side and create a seamless system with one regional point of contact for drivers. TNC companies will interface directly with PBOT who will manage the administration of the policy. Every trip originating in Tigard is subject to a 50-cent fee. PBOT would retain a small percentage to support administration and management of the program and Tigard would use the remaining funds to support city functions that are impacted by TNC use of roads and rights of way. If approved,Tigard would enter into an IGA with PBOT. Council President Lueb asked if the revenue would go into an existing fund or its own fund and how it would be tracked. Senior Transportation Planner Roth suggested a separate fund would be best. In response to a question from Council President Lueb on revenue estimates he said at present they are unable to see or know the number of trips,but they think it is modest and during COVID conditions,use has dropped overall. Use would start out to be modest but it may grow. Councilor Shaw asked when the ordinance would be implemented and Senior Transportation Planner Roth said it would be 30 days after the ordinance is adopted. Mayor Snider verified that Councilor Shaw did not have a conflict of interest and could participate in the vote. D. Public Testimony—Mayor Snider said two written comments were received by 4:30 p.m. today. One email came from Anna Richter-Taylor and the other was from Sam Cho. Phone caller No. 1: Sam Cho,Public Policy Manager of Lyft's Pacific NW Region, thanked Senior Planner Roth for taking the time to listen to their comments and they hoped to see TIGARD CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES — March 2, 2021 City of Tigard 1 13125 SW Hall Blvd.,Tigard, OR 97223 www.tigard-or.gov 1 Page 4 of 9 some suggested improvements in the ordinance. He said they believe the version Tigard Council is considering is better than what other cities have. He noted that their data indicates that the 50-cent fee will create excess funds, even after paying 15 percent to PBOT. He offered two recommendations for surplus funds: In June 2020 Lyft committed to convert to electric vehicles by year 2030 but one of the greatest challenges is the lack of EV charging infrastructure. He suggested any excess funds be used for charging stations. If Tigard did this,they would be the first city in the greater Portland area and would set a precedent for the entire region. He added that Lyft is committed to providing diverse, equitable and inclusive transportation options and one challenge is providing wheelchair accessible vehicles. Lyft is supportive of language to add wheelchair accessible programs. Council President Lueb noted that in Mr. Cho's email he said data collection processes were not appropriate for the data sharing requirements. Mr. Cho replied that it is not just a number (data per trip) but the driver's personally identifiable information. Anna Richter Taylor,representing Uber in the Portland area,called in and commented that city staff were accessible and amenable to some initial concerns. She mentioned some issues of concern. She hoped that by entering into a data sharing agreement that it does not put additional risk regarding safety identification for riders or drivers. She clarified to Tigard residents that they should know there have not been any unregulated rides happening;all have been registered through Portland's process. Mayor Snider asked about Ms. Richter-Taylor's comment about no trips from unregulated drivers and said there are sometimes needs to transport someone to and from a medical location. He used an example of a driver from Wenatchee who delivers a medical patient to Tigard and asked if they could not then take a rider from Tigard to Wenatchee because they would not be approved by PBOT. She responded that she is a contractor with Uber and would have to get clarification on that scenario from them. She said her original point was that rides originating in Tigard would only have drivers who have gone through the PBOT regulatory process. Mr. Cho returned into the phone call queue,but he clarified he was just making sure there were no further questions for him. He had no additional testimony. E. Response to testimony by staff. Senior Transportation Planner Roth thanked Mr. Cho and Ms. Richter-Taylor for testifying. Regarding Mr. Cho's comments,he said staff incorporated many of the requests from Uber and Lyft into the policy. Staff responded to a request from Lyft to add language pursuant to an applicable data sharing agreement and if adopted,Tigard will set up a third-party agreement between PBOT and each company to make sure sensitive data is kept safely without risk. He added that while Tigard may not have the full capability to maximize use of the data at this point,it could be valuable for future transportation planning efforts. He referred to the remark that the fee was excessive for what is needed for administration, and TIGARD CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES — March 2, 2021 City of Tigard 1 13125 SW Hall Blvd.,Tigard,OR 97223 www.tigard-or.gov 1 Page 5 of 9 said the fee was consistent with others in the region and in some cases less,as with the $2.00 Port of Portland fee. Finance Director LaFrance clarified an earlier statement made by Senior Transportation Planner Roth and said until it is known how significant the generated revenue will be,it does not yet justify having its own fund. Since it will be used for public safety, traffic engineering,capital improvements,planning and code enforcement,it can be tracked as a separate revenue account within the General Fund and Gas Tax Fund. This honors the code as it is written by tracking it as a separate revenue account within an existing fund. Mayor Snider closed the public hearing. Councilor Shaw asked if there was a dollar amount that would justify a separate fund. Finance Director LaFrance said while there is no formal policy, he would like to see at least six digits annually before considering a new fund. Councilor Newton clarified with Senior Transportation Planner Roth that the 50-cent fee is driven by consistency and not what staff thinks it will cost to administer the program. G. Council consideration of Ordinance No. 21- 07. Councilor Shaw said she appreciated that TNCs are available, especially for those not living near transit,and added that public safety and traffic management are important. She recognized that Lyft and Uber have worked closely with staff and it ended with a compromise, and it gets the city closer to green transportation and greenhouse gas reduction. Council President Lueb said she approved of the suggested changes.Youth Councilor Calderon said he was supportive of electric vehicle infrastructure. Councilor Shaw moved to approve Ordinance No. 21-07 with the changes to TMC 5.24 highlighted in the email. Council President Lueb seconded the motion. There was no further discussion. City Recorder Krager read the number and title of the ordinance and conducted a roll call vote. Ordinance No. 21-07—AN ORDINANCE ADOPTING TIGARD MUNICIPAL CODE CHAPTER 5.24 RELATED TO TRANSPORTATION NETWORK COMPANY (TNC) POLICY Yes No Councilor Goodhouse ✓ Councilor Newton ✓ Council President Lueb ✓ Councilor Shaw ✓ Mayor Snider ✓ Mayor Snider announced that Ordinance No. 21-07 was adopted unanimously.

LEGISLATIVE PUBLIC HEARING: CONSIDER ORDINANCE ALLOWING PAYMENT PLANS OF LONGER THAN ONE YEAR FOR TIGARD UTILITY CUSTOMERS DURING THE COVID- 19 EMERGENCY A. Mayor Snider opened the public hearing. B. Mayor Snider announced that anyone may testify by phone and may call in to get the queue now by calling 503-966-4101. C. Finance and Information Services Director LaFrance gave the staff report. He said over the past year,in embracing the City's Strategic Plan Priority No. 1 —Set the standard for excellence in public service and customer experience,Tigard has been providing help for utility customers,both businesses and residents, through the Tigard Aid program. Under Resolution 20-50 which passed in October 2020,no services were disconnected,and no late payment charges would be billed until April 1,2021 when utility billing will resume turning off utilities for non-payment. Per the communications plan,utility billing staff will start calling customers to work out payment arrangements four weeks prior to their shut-off date, starting on March 8. Staff realized that of the 550 customers currently 60 days past due (3% of the total customer base),22 °A)owe over$1,000. Being past due over a twelve-month period would effectively double their monthly utility payment and this may not lead to successful outcomes. Currently,the Tigard Municipal Code limits the duration of any payment plan to one year. The proposed ordinance temporarily delegates authority to the city's Finance Director or designee, to extend payment plans in excess of one year. The ordinance will end six months after the last COVID-19 emergency declaration expires. Director LaFrance said staff will be contacting customers that are late on their utility bills and let them know about aid programs and the changes from the ordinance,if approved. Councilor Goodhouse asked why someone wouldn't qualify for aid and Director LaFrance said he has no data on those who will not qualify,but there are currently 550 more than 60 days past due and will be scheduled for shut off. He said staff will work to get those who qualify into aid programs but there will be some who do not qualify. Council President Lueb asked about the structure of payment plans and Finance Director LaFrance said the structure was not yet finalized. D. Public Testimony—Mayor Snider said that no written testimony was received by the deadline. He asked IT Manager Nolop if there were any callers in the queue and there were none. E. Response to testimony by staff.There was no testimony. F. Mayor Snider closed the public hearing.

Concerns ranged from maintenance issues to the insensitivity of the apartment name. Coincidentally, some Washington County representatives were present at the meeting and heard the comments directly. This property is owned by Washington County so the city team followed up with Washington County and the housing authority and will continue to follow these outcomes,including capital improvements and a change to a more culturally sensitive name.

LOCAL CONTRACT REVIEW BOARD: CONSIDER AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO SIGN AN AGREEMENT WITH ODOT FOR FUNDING OF NEW SIDEWALKS ALONG LOCUST STREET Council President Lueb moved to approve the Consent Agenda as presented. Councilor Newton seconded the motion. City Recorder Krager conducted a roll call vote and the motion passed unanimously. Yes No Councilor Shaw ✓ Mayor Snider ✓ Councilor Goodhouse ✓ Councilor Newton ✓ Council President Lueb ✓ 4. LOCAL CONTRACT REVIEW BOARD: CONSIDER EXEMPTION TO COMPETITIVE BIDDING AND APPROVAL OF FINDINGS FOR UNIVERSAL PLAZA Purchasing Manager Moody presented this item. Shiels Obletz Johnsen (SOJ) representatives D J. Baxter, Kim Knox and Vanessa Robinson were in attendance. Ms. Moody said the Local Contract Review Board is being asked to consider an exemption to the traditional low bid process for the construction of Universal Plaza and allow an alternative procurement method.The desire is to hire a Construction Manager/General Contractor (CM/GC) before the design is complete to provide greater value engineering to the project. D.J. Baxter of Shiels Obletz Johnsen, acting as the owner's representative, described the process further. Oregon law requires all public improvement projects to be procured by a competitive low bid process, unless an exemption is granted by the Local Contract Review Board for public agencies, other than the State. To obtain the exemption,Tigard's LCRB must approve two key findings submitted by staff: He shared some slides about the process.The two key findings are: TIGARD CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES -April 6, 2021 City of Tigard 1 13125 SW Hall Blvd.,Tigard, OR 97223 www.tigard-or.gov 1 Page 2 of 9 1. It is unlikely that the exemption will encourage favoritism or substantially diminish competition for the public improvement; and, 2. The award of the public improvement contract under the exemption will likely result in cost savings for the City of Tigard. Mr. Baxter described the key characteristics of the Design-Bid-Build method and the CM/GC method. A typical sequence of events under the alternative CM/GC method is that the Construction Manager is hired earlier in the design process allowing for differences in the way the project is approached. By being involved in the project earlier, the Construction Manager can consult with the design team as the project is developed. They can also see cost estimates,enabling the design team and owner to respond in real time based on those estimates,and advise the owner on revisions during design,when changes are less expensive.This facilitates efficiency, cost savings and smoother project execution. The CM/GC will go out for bid for subcontractors to conduct the work. Findings need to be established by the LCRB to go another route than low bid. The CM/GC process is less expensive and will not interfere with competition.The Universal Plaza project is a large public plaza which it is hoped will be a hub of activity in the core of downtown and includes a state-of-the-art water feature. Mr.Baxter said SOJ's findings are that it will foster competition because there are numerous contractors who can work on complex projects and an RFP will help select a highly qualified CM/GC with specialized expertise. It will also minimize public impacts during construction and enable effective planning for access,noise, debris removal, and coordination with adjacent properties. Unforeseen issues can be addressed earlier and less expensively. Purchasing Manager Moody said the city published a public notice in the Daily Journal of Commerce that draft findings were available for review. One contractor requested a copy. A public hearing was held on March 18,2021 as required under ORS 279C.335 to allow for comments on the draft findings.No contractors attended the meeting,and the city did not receive any comments on the findings. Therefore the findings, as attached to this agenda item summary, are final.The LCRB may choose not to approve the findings and the CM/GC exemption and ask staff to investigate other procurement methods. This would cause a several month project delay. Councilor Newton moved for approval of an exemption to competitive bidding and approval of the findings as presented. Council President Lueb seconded the motion. City Recorder Krager conducted a roll call vote and the motion passed unanimously.

RECEIVE ALONGSIDE SENIOR HOUSING PROECT PLAN UPDATE TIGARD CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES -April 6, 2021 City of Tigard 13125 SW Hall Blvd.,Tigard, OR 97223 www.tigard-or.gov I Page 3 of 9 Redevelopment Project Manager Farrelly presented the staff report and slide presentation. Project Partners Josh Carrillo and Destin Ferdun from NW Housing Alternatives were also in attendance. Redevelopment Project Manager Farrelly said Council was last briefed in November of 2020. He described several benefits of the project including its proximity to the downtown core,trails,and the library; opportunities for collaboration with the Senior Center and Meals on Wheels;helping seniors to age in place and stay in their community; and contributing to Tigard's commitment to address the affordable housing crisis. NW Housing Alternatives Project Manager Josh Carrillo said they have been working on this project for a year and a half and have made serious headway in securing millions of dollars in funding. They are past 50%in the design process and have engaged in a tremendous amount of community outreach. This project received$1.2 million in Federal Home Funds and they just received notification that they will receive 18 Project Based Vouchers and 5 vouchers for veterans. They have solicited a lot of feedback and have incorporated some of this input into the project. They have received interest from folks looking to apply to make this project their next home. Residents of the Woodspring Apartments have expressed interest because their complex is moving to market rate housing in the next few years.This reaffirms that this project is a critical need for downtown Tigard. The next stage of design starts to refine details such as programming spaces and selection of plumbing,lighting and other features to be incorporated into the project. The design phase will continue into early fall and they are scheduled to close in late February 2022.The project should be complete and certificate of occupancy applied for by April 2023. Since NW Housing Alternatives was selected to develop the project in 2019,they have held 20 community events to ensure that they are hearing from and meeting the needs of the local community. With all of these events the project has been heavily influenced by public input since its inception. Mr. Carrillo showed a site map and discussed how the building was moved down the hillside to appear less imposing. They have added screening to provide privacy to the neighbors. They will be developing a parking management plan.Trails will be enhanced and wheelchair accessible. The Senior Center will also be spruced up with a focus on landscaping and making the parking lot more efficient. He showed a slide of the latest elevation drawings and a few current designs used in downtown redevelopment. Mayor Snider thanked them for the presentation. He said Council continues to receive feedback on concerns from one or two individuals who indicate that they are representing others,but it appears that the project has been made more suitable for the neighborhood and he applauded and appreciated that. He asked about any unresolved issues,noting that parking may be one. Mr. Carrillo responded that parking has been a constant issue,and although there will be a parking management plan,he did not think there would be enough parking provided for some of those objecting to be appeased. He said there are 48 parking spots which includes Senior Center parking. Their use times are offset from each other.The Senior Center gets a lot of business from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. and typically people who work would be away during that time. Their experience is parking planned at.5-1 for each unit has been adequate. He suggested they will serve people 62 and older and they are less likely to drive. There will not be dedicated parking spaces but instead, dedicated areas and hourly markings.The unit count is 57 plus one manager apartment. Councilor Newton noted some environmental issues were raised and she assumed that when NHA submits their application for development review,part of it will include responses to any TIGARD CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES -April 6, 2021 City of Tigard 1 13125 SW Hall Blvd.,Tigard, OR 97223 www.tigard-or.gov 1 Page 4 of 9 questions raised by the community. They will be able to see these during the application period. Mr. Carrillo agreed but said there were no issues at this time. Councilor Shaw said that transportation is the second highest cost for families and individuals and hopefully,not many of these senior residents will have as a financial burden. Mayor Snider suggested that the efforts to reach out and engage with the community continue. He acknowledged their efforts but said there are some issues that arise repeatedly. 6. DISCUSS AND FILL A PUBLIC SAFETY ADVISORY BOARD VACANCY As staff liaison to the Public Safety Advisory Board,Management Analyst Ramos gave the staff report.A PSAB member has resigned, creating a vacancy for a community representative voting position. Council is being asked to discuss and fill the vacancy. He mentioned that this is a good time for someone to join the PSAB as they have completed their formative discussions and are getting ready for policy conversations and recommendations. Of PSAB's current alternates, one is a non-resident and the other has volunteered to take a leave of absence pending the District Attorney's investigation into the officer-involved shooting. The city team went back to the original pool of candidates selected by the community caucus. They contacted all seven of the top 16 who were not appointed,to verify interest and residency. One of the three people expressing interest and availability to fill the vacancy,Justus Rogers,is a non-resident. Shaun Stuhldryer and Nick Jarmer are Tigard residents. Council has three alternatives to consider: 1. Of PSAB's current alternates,one is a non-resident and the other has volunteers to take a leave of absence pending the District Attorney's investigation into the officer- involved shooting. Council could move either of these individuals to voting status, depending on how they want to address the residency requirement. 2. Appoint a new voting member from the list of candidates: Shaun Stuhldryer,Nick Jarmer and Justus Rogers (All mentioned at the October 27,2020 meeting).Justus Rogers is a non-resident. 3. Offer other guidance on filling the PSAB vacancy and consider it at a later Council meeting. Mayor Snider suggested there cannot be a voting member who is a non-resident. If eliminating the non-resident, the choice is between the other two. Councilor Shaw agreed that the alternate should be a resident and she nominated Shaun Stuhldryer. Council President Lueb said both would bring interesting backgrounds to the table but also supported Shaun Stuhldryer. Councilor Goodhouse said both looked good to him and noted that Nick Jarmer came in higher than Shaun Stuhldryer on the public poll. Councilor Newton appreciated Mr. Stuhldryer's openness about his lived experiences and she supported TIGARD CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES —April 6, 2021 City of Tigard I 13125 SW Hall Blvd.,Tigard, OR 97223 www.tigard-or.gov I Page 5 of 9 appointing him. Youth Councilor Calderon reviewed his original notes and said it was close, but he agreed with appointing Shaun Stuhldryer. Mayor Snider said there was clear consensus. Council President Lueb moved to appoint Shaun Stuhldryer to the Public Safety Advisory Board in a voting position. Councilor Shaw seconded the motion. City Recorder Krager conducted a roll call vote.The motion passed unanimously. Yes No Councilor Shaw ✓ Mayor Snider ✓ Councilor Goodhouse ✓ Councilor Newton ✓ Council President Lueb ✓ Mayor Snider asked Management Analyst Ramos to extend congratulations to Mr. Stuhldryer and make sure he receives his City of Tigard pin. 7. DISCUSSION REGARDING COUNCIL LIAISON ASSIGNMENTS City Manager Rymer introduced this agenda item and asked Council to consider whether to change liaison assignments or leave them as is for this year and discuss again in January. Staff needs to know if one- or two-year assignments are preferred. There is also information on an Arts Council,and he asked about interest in having a Council representative and discuss the best way to assign that. Mayor Snider acknowledged for new Councilor Shaw that the process is being done differently as it is usually discussed in January for a two-year period. He noted that Council has ended up in some uncomfortable situations and needs to be more specific as to what things are decisions Council can make and what are not. He asked, "If we have not been asked to participate, do we just declare we want to be on it?That is not our role." He added that there are two major areas of involvement: water and transportation.There is some benefit for those who are involved to work in multiple ways with these groups. He noted he was always on the Lake Oswego Tigard Water Partnership as a councilor,but others attended the Willamette Water Consortium, for example. It may not be possible for one councilor to cover all the boards and commissions for these two areas.As assignments are made,it makes sense to think about these two topics. He added that if the current liaison really wants to stay on the committee,we usually give preference to them. • Councilor Newton concurred with the two-year period noting that changing every year would be difficult. • Councilor Shaw's perspective as a new councilor was that annual periods would be better so council members could experience several different boards and committees. She suggested since it is already April, assignments continue through 2021 and then discuss new positions for 2022. • Councilor Goodhouse agreed about the timing since it is April. He suggested a hybrid whereby members continue their current assignments and then have an in-person discussion in January about whether to go with one- or two-year periods. • Councilor Newton said the proposal is fine. She would like to change the TYAC liaison to the Tigard Youth Councilor as she felt there was no reason to have both councilors there. TIGARD CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES -April 6, 2021 City of Tigard 1 13125 SW Hall Blvd.,Tigard, OR 97223 www.tigard-or.gov 1 Page 6 of 9 Mayor Snider said while it is redundant to have both there, the youth councilor position changes each year, and the skill levels may vary. He suggested at a minimum, that another councilor be prepared to step in if a youth councilor is unable to represent the council. • Youth Councilor Calderon agreed that it is redundant, but a backup is good in case they cannot attend a TYAC meeting. He thought it was great to have the Youth Councilor be the TYAC liaison. • Council President Lueb agreed with having the Youth Councilor be the liaison to the TYAC and have an alternate who is ready to step in as needed. She recommended two years was important to develop relationships and get up to speed, and it should be regularly scheduled for discussion in January. • Councilor Shaw stated her preference would be for terms of one year,but she understood the rationale. She noted that she would like to participate on the transportation committee. She proposed to go with current assignments until 2022 and then discuss in January and decide whether to go to a one- or two-year terms. Mayor Snider summarized that current assignments will be kept with minor adjustments but there will be a discussion in January. Recommendations about the list of committees: • Mayor Snider asked about the special event subcommittee and whether it would happen this year. It was not held last year due to events being cancelled due to COVID-19. City Manager Rymer said he will check with Finance Director LaFrance about whether social events will be held this year. • SW Corridor Steering Committee—Remove, as it has been disbanded. • Tigard Chamber Government Affairs and Public Policy—Mayor Snider said they invite someone;we don't appoint them.And the Art Council is the same way. Mayor Snider said the Chamber was very clear that they are the ones who do the inviting. He noted Councilor Anderson attended the GAP because he was already on it. • Westside Economic Alliance Governance Relations Committee—everyone could attend if they chose. It should be removed. • Keep the bond and levy task force but remove the description. • Youth Councilor Calderon will replace Councilor Newton on the Tigard Youth Advisory Committee. Councilor Newton will be the alternate. 8. CONSIDER RESOLUTION EXTENDING THE CITY'S ALLOWANCE OF FURNISHINGS ON SIDEWALKS City Attorney Rihala gave the staff report. This is a renewal of a resolution passed last May. The encroachment code requires a permit for any furnishings on sidewalks or other public rights of way.As part of COVID help for businesses, Council decided in May 2020 to allow a temporary free encroachment permit allowing restaurant seating on city sidewalks.This expired at the end of the year but the city has received a current application.Approval of a permit still requires that the applicant to meet safety and ADA requirements.The permits will expire six months after the end of the City's declared emergency.

D. Update from Police Chief McAlpine—Chief McAlpine reported on a random incident that started with a stabbing in Marion County and led to a car chase and arrest in Tigard. The person parked at Tigard High School and ran into a neighborhood,entering an unsecured home. He did not harm the residents but took a few items and left.The canine unit was called in and the suspect was apprehended. She noted an uptick in storage unit burglaries, stolen vehicles,and catalytic converters thefts.Proposed legislation will make it difficult for scrap metal dealers to accept catalytic converters. Calls for service are increasing compared to last year when COVID was emerging. There is a slight increase in red-light camera tickets possibly due to more people going back to work or taking vacations. The city is getting closer to the district integrity goal of an officer in each of the five districts by meeting it 58%of the time in day shift,74%in swing and 35%on the graveyard shift. Councilor Newton asked for tips people could follow to help prevent thefts from storage units. Chief McAlpine said the Commercial Crimes Unit is working with property owners to be a little more diligent. Police have done extensive outreach on catalytic converter theft. Arrests have been made but right now they are just getting cited and released. Councilor Goodhouse said he's heard concerns about cars travelling at high speeds in the area late at night.The Chief recommended reporting it on the Tigard Traffic app,which gets monitored. Staffing is getting to the point to allow an evening DUI car starting in July.She noted that there have been street racers in the parking lot by the theater and she will relay Councilor Goodhouse's concerns to the graveyard shift. He asked if there could be a red-light camera at the Gaarde and McDonald intersection. Chief McAlpine said that intersection had been under consideration but was lower on the list. Councilor Shaw commended the Chief on communications to the public about the catalytic converters. Councilor Goodhouse congratulated the Chief on her four-year anniversary at Tigard. E.

Looking back to last year he said they launched a COVID-19 task force to make sure personnel were safe and could respond to call after call. Facilities were closed to the public and only 12 out of 600 employees contracted COVID which he felt was doing well for the size of the TIGARD CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES-April 13, 2021 City of Tigard 113125 SW Hall Blvd.,Tigard,OR 97223 www.tigard-or.gov I Page 3 of 11 organization.They had to ask the public for help getting personal protective equipment and were humbled by support from the Tigard-Tualatin School District,Home Depot,and private business owners.They were able to share PPE with other agencies.TVF&R was able to deliver vaccinations and vaccinated other agencies such as Tigard police. He showed a slide of Chief McAlpine receiving her vaccination. He reported that the Chehalem Mountain wildfire was the largest fire in TVF&R history and taxed the organization. There were 5,888 calls for service from Tigard and typically,most were EMS calls. Fire calls were down because people were staying at home.There were also fewer cars on the road and some people were afraid to call emergency services because of potential exposure to COVID. In November TVF&R will be asking voters to approve a bond for fleet and capital improvements including replacement of the training facility. Mayor Snider put in a plug for the TVF&R Bond Measure,mentioning he took EMT classes there 26 years ago and thought the PALS building was old even then.He thanked Chief Weiss for all they've done on the vaccine front. 6. LEGISLATIVE PUBLIC HEARING: CONSIDER AMENDMENT TO TMC 3.24.080- SYSTEM DEVELOPMENT CHARGE (SDC) DEFERRAL REQUESTS A. Mayor Snider opened the public hearing. B. Hearing Procedures—Mayor Snider announced that anyone may testify by phone by calling 503-966-4101 to get into the queue now. C. Associate Planner Lindor gave the staff report on proposed changes to the Tigard Municipal Code regarding the System Development Charge (SDC) deferral process to allow deferral requests to City Transportation and Parks SDCs to be submitted prior to issuance of building permits or,if no building permit is required upon land use approval. The current code language requires applicants to submit a deferral request no later than at the time of the building permit application,or upon land use approval if no permit is required. It allows the applicant flexibility by allowing them additional time to consider a deferral. Many times applicants are not aware at the time of application whether they are eligible for deferral and do not know what their fees will be. They could also apply credits they received for doing public improvements but those can only be applied when SDCs are deferred. Otherwise, they would receive a credit that could be used at a future date for improvements they may or may not need to do. Developers prefer to use the credits to go towards the fees they are required to pay. Associate Planner Lindor said this change would also save staff time. Currently,if an application has already been submitted for a building permit and they choose to use a deferral process,they must withdraw their existing permit and reapply. They are responsible for covering any previous review fees as well as new ones resulting from the new permit. Staff has to void previous permits,create new ones,and start the review process all over. Staff recommends approval of this change to the Tigard Municipal Code. D. Public Testimony—No written testimony was received,and no one called in.

He said he and his wife are majority owners of some small developments in process within Tigard and this may require his recusal from deliberations.

Erickson recently obtained his advanced Force Science certification,which is an 18-week course of 300 hours. Sergeant Erickson said this is nothing new and is a replacement of items police have been using for years. All sworn staff will wear body-worn cameras. Included are next generation Tasers,modernizing the fleet car dash cameras and modernizing and upgrading the interview recording system. He gave a brief history of the purchase year of each equipment type in use and their current state of technology.There is national interest in the use of body cameras and he has heard there is local support.There is an expectation that the department is collecting and storing the data correctly. He said there is a need for this,and it is important for transparency and use in trials.With the new system,redactions can be automated and streamlined and there is a cloud-based solution for storage. He listed advantages from an IT staff perspective.The Axon citizen program is simple to use and creates a link that can be shared with community members so they can upload electronic data making. All systems are secure and compliant with CJIS requirements.Police staff field tested the new fleet dash cam system for six months. It is easier to use and the image quality is greatly increased. It uploads directly into the cloud so the officer does not have to return to the station to download the images. Certain triggers,such as an increase in police vehicle speed, will trigger the dash cam to activate. A body worn camera loaner has been field tested and officers found it just as easy to use but has better features than current model. Other agencies are currently using the same cameras. The Washington County District Attorney has requested that there be one consistent TIGARD CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES—April 13, 2021 City of Tigard I 13125 SW Hall Blvd.,Tigard,OR 97223 www.tigard-or.gov I Page 6 of 11 platform. Certain triggers will activate them automatically such as gun drawn or Taser activation.The system will also collate multiple viewpoints. Axon Citizen collects digital or electronic evidence by texting a link to a community member and officer can go in and triage and can be kept as evidence. Tasers are next generation and include simplified user interface, and auto triggers to body worn cameras. Safer features including a louder warning arc and bright green target light allow for better de-escalation to avoid the need for a higher level of force. The current technology in the interview room is nearing the end of its useful life. Statutory requirements for interviews mean"zero failure."Replacing this technology at the same time as bringing on the other equipment puts it on the same platform,creating uniformity for staff and IT support. Police Business Analyst Shaw showed a slide outlining the five-year funding costs.The five- year cost is $1.46 million and 44 percent of that is covered in the base budget. There is funding available within the levy revenue set aside for materials and services dedicated for nine sworn officers.Additionally,because the city already works with Axon,we are on a program with existing tasers so there is some base budget allocated.The annual cost less the existing budget leaves$165,000. She noted that Risk Management helped identify a CIS grant for body cameras purchased this year. As long as$50,000 is spent on body cameras, CIS will award$25,000. The city has tentatively been awarded this grant so if the purchase is authorized,$25,000 will be returned to the General Fund this year. Staff will actively seek other grants to help with costs. Sergeant Erickson said Axon is uniquely poised to provide programmed equipment replacement,on-site spares and cost-free repair which will allow officers to focus on other things at critical times. The IT Division supports this program.The body worn camera program expansion received a unanimous recommendation from the PSAB on March 22. He said this is a five-year contract where the department purchases the equipment by making lifecycle replacement program vendor payments each year of the contract.The project also includes a cloud-based service for digital evidence management and storage that works seamlessly with the department's new records management system. Chief McAlpine acknowledged it was a large request,but it is extremely important in order to provide transparency and clarity. She commended City Manager Rymer who understood the urgency and supported asking for a Third Quarter Supplemental,rather than waiting for next year's budget cycle. She added that when Tigard experienced the riot situation,police staff had to scramble to borrow body-worn cameras from other agencies and this was not acceptable. She noted that Tigard's officers are on board and want transparency of their actions. She referred to a recent situation in Minnesota involving a mix-up between use of a lethal weapon and a Taser. She said Tigard uses Tasers in the opposite(non-dominant) hand,they are a bright yellow and the technology is quite different from firearms so officers should not be confused as in the Minnesota incident. Mayor Snider asked for any questions on the police presentation. He noted it was thorough, was consistent with conversations Council has held in the last year and is in line with the recommendations from the Public Safety Advisory Board.There were no further questions from council. TIGARD CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES—April 13,2021 City of Tigard 13125 SW Hall Blvd.,Tigard, OR 97223 www.tigard-or.gov I Page 7 of 11 Senior Management Analyst Kang continued with the staff presentation. Non-Budgetary Impact Items—An increase in the Risk Analyst position from.8 to 1.00 I'IE will ensure OSHA compliance for ongoing annual testing,training,auditing and data reporting as well as claims back-up,COVID-19 response support and Total Tyler back-up support.This F 11,increase is offset by savings from professional and consulting services. Senior Management Analyst Kang concluded the staff presentation and said the FY 2021 Third Quarter Supplemental Budget will increase the overall budget by$340,000 across 12 city funds.The increases are largely supported through various Federal and State grants, unanticipated beginning fund balances,contingency and reserves.This supplemental budget will decrease reserves of the city by$254,000.Exhibits A and B in the meeting packet summarized the fiscal impact by fund.Staff recommends approval of the resolution. Council Questions: Mayor Snider asked how the body worn cameras are triggered remotely by drawing a gun or holster. Sergeant Erickson replied that there is an attachment to the holster. Council President Lueb encouraged anyone interested in the PSAB conversations to watch the YouTube meetings available on the city's website. She asked what it takes to turn on the body worn cameras. Sergeant Erickson replied that they can be turned on manually and there is also a pre-event buffer of video with no audio which can be set for a pre-determined amount of time.A policy is currently being reviewed that relates to times for example,when there is a contentious contact,a crime investigation or an officer detaining someone for reasonable suspicion.A State law requires that if a body cam is available,it must be turned on during those instances. Mayor Snider asked about the non-audio buffer and asked why they would be setup without audio since it doesn't take as much storage space as video.Sergeant Erickson said police officers need to tell people when they are being recorded but if they are thrust into a sudden incident, they can't use that few seconds of video unless the person has been notified they are being recorded.He can get more information on this for Mayor Snider. Council President Lueb asked what the impact will be on contingency and reserve balances and what was behind the decision-making on which items would come from what source.Mr. Kang said some funds have contingency budgeted so if a fund has it,that is what is used. If we run out of contingency,then we use the fund balance. This budget supplemental contains three property management requests but the contingency was used up,so some was taken from the fund balance. For non-operating funds we must use the fund balance. Overall, there is$2.2 million of contingency in our budget. Council President Lueb asked how this affects our reserves and Senior Management Analyst Kang said we used$254,000 from reserves. Other than the Property Management and Facilities funds,none were using fund balances. Council President Lueb asked if this would cut services and if this is tapping into the emergency reserves. Mr. Kang said no, the funds were Fleet and Property Management and Transient Lodging Tax. She asked when the city started the PSAB was it known we were going to have to pay for a consulting service as opposed to using a staff person.Mayor Snider responded that the City Manager and Assistant City Manager warned Council that there would be those needs,including an additional management analyst. The amount was not known but there was a recognition it TIGARD CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES-April 13, 2021 City of Tigard 1 13125 SW Hall Blvd.,Tigard,OR 97223 www.tigard-or.gov 1 Page 8 of 11 would not be free.Assistant City Manager Nyland added that because of how the PSAB evolved, staff knew from the onset it would be unique from other boards and committees due to the sensitive nature of the discussion material and that is why a management analyst and outside facilitator were requested. Councilor Goodhouse asked about the DLR contract amount was it for the extra work Council approved in February. Mr.Kang said the approval action did not set aside appropriations and this action tonight is the actual appropriation. Councilor Shaw asked if the management analyst position was funded and Assistant City Manager Nyland said it was budgeted and is being filled by Eduardo Ramos,who is doing a great job. Councilor Newton thanked staff for an excellent presentation and robust conversation.She said there was great interest on the PSAB about the Police expenditures and it was her understanding that there will be an opportunity at a PSAB meeting to consider these police technology policies before the equipment is put into use. Chief McAlpine said the expanded policy is going through the chain of command now and then the police union will look at it She will take it to PSAB before it is an official policy. Councilor Newton referred to the Public Works request for PTO (personal time off)buyout due to COVID-19 and asked if other departments will be hit with this, adding that she hoped this will be managed better in the future. Management Analyst Kang said no further PTO buyouts were expected. D. Public Testimony— There was none. Councilor Newton noted that the Public Safety Advisory Board submitted a recommendation today.Mayor Snider said he considered it part of the staff information,but it could be considered public comment.

LOCAL CONTRACT REVIEW BOARD-CONSIDER CONTRACT AWARD FOR BODY WORN CAMERAS,FLEET CAMERAS,TASERS,INTERVIEW RECORDING PLATFORM,DIGITAL EVIDENCE STORAGE,MAIN PENANCE AND SUPPORT Contracts and Purchasing Manager Moody gave the staff report for this item,requesting Local Contract Review Board approval of a five-year contract with Axon in the amount of$1,467,765 for body worn cameras,fleet cameras,Tasers,interview recording platform,digital evidence storage,maintenance,and support. Staff explored multiple options for purchasing this equipment and found that Axon Enterprises holds a national cooperative contract through Sourcewell, a government service cooperative in which the city is a member.The city is allowed to use cooperative contracts in order to obtain best pricing. Council President Lueb moved to approve the contract and Councilor Shaw seconded the motion. City Recorder Krager conducted a roll call vote and the motion passed unanimously.

Workshop Meeting Meeting Date: 10/19/2021 Length (in minutes): 45 Minutes Agenda Title: Receive Parks and Recreation System Plan Update Prepared For: Rick Gruen, Public Works Submitted By: Marissa Grass, Public Works Item Type: Update, Discussion, Direct Staff Meeting Type: Council Workshop Mtg. Public Hearing: No Publication Date: Information ISSUE Provide a briefing on the Parks and Recreation System Plan update. Offer questions and guidance based on the briefing and draft System Plan. STAFF RECOMMENDATION / ACTION REQUEST Direct the team to bring the Parks and Recreation System Plan back at a future meeting to consider adoption of the plan. KEY FACTS AND INFORMATION SUMMARY Background The City of Tigard is updating the Parks and Recreation System Plan that was last updated in 2009. The updated plan will address and incorporate the many significant changes over the past ten years that pertain to Parks and Recreation services. NOTE: In an effort to advance our anti-racism work, the word "master" is being removed from City documents. The publishing of this agenda item occured before we could make all of the necessary changes. This document will become the Parks and Recreation System Plan and before final approval by the council (tentatively set for December 2021) all references to the word "master"' will be removed from the document and associated materials. System Plan Effort: Advancing Equitable Access to Parks & Recreation The city's vision: Tigard:An equitable community that is walkable, healthy, and accessible for everyone set the direction for the Parks and Recreation System Plan. The vision guided the content in the system plan, and also the process used to update the plan. The System Plan is based on extensive community input that was guided by a robust public engagement program implemented between August 2019 and June 2021. Work over the last 14 months has been divided into four phases: •System Inventory and Analysis —In the first phase of the project, the team presented information about the physical gaps in the city's parks and recreation system. Outcome:All residents do not enjoy the same access to parks and recreation services. Approximately one-third of Tigard's population must walk more than ten minutes to reach a developed park. •Needs Analysis— In the second phase, the team worked to identify gaps and opportunities in other aspects of our parks and recreation system, including staffing, organizational structure, and funding. Outcome: The increase of PAR Ffunding to $7.94 allows us to sustainably maintain Tigard's existing inventory of parks and recreation services today. However, it does not allow for any growth in areas recommended in the system plan as an increase in natural area management, maintenance of future new parks as they come on line, or expanding recreation services. •Action plan— In the third phase, the park system concept was developed to achieve the vision for an equitable, walkable, healthy, and accessible city. Outcome:Five strategies were developed: 1) Serve gap areas with high quality parks, 2) maximize the recreation value of existing parks, 3) complete planned parks or park phases, 4) coordinate with other transportation-related planning efforts to connect the trails network, 5) acquire and develop new parks. •Recommendations and Prioritization— In the fourth phase, prioritization criteria was developed to assist the city with determining which projects move forward into the city's six-year Capital Improvement Plan. Community feedback from an online map-based engagement opportunity helped to refine the criteria. Outcome:Projects that increase equity will receive high priority, in addition to other more traditional measures. Draft Plan The final draft Parks and Recreation System Plan is attached for review. The plan was available for review beginning in August and the attached memo, dated October 1, 2021 from MIG, summarizes the changes made in response to this input. At the workshop meeting, the City team and the consultant team will deliver a presentation on the key elements of the system plan, which include: 1. Vision: Advancing equitable access to parks and recreation requires strategic decision making and prioritization of projects and programs. The goals of the system plan describe how we will get there. 2. Overarching goal: To provide high quality parks and recreation services within a 10-minute walk of everyone. 3. Key performance indicators: Key elements of the Parks and Recreation System Plan analysis can be replicated annually to show progress towards our goals. 4. Strategies: Five strategies (listed above) were developed to meet the city's vision for future parks and recreation services. 5. Action Plan: In addition to closing the physical gaps in service, additional actions like prioritizing capital projects, enlivening the park system, taking care of what we have, and building organizational capacity are important. Advancing the Strategic Plan and the Community Promise These framing elements provided the foundation and guidance for the Parks and Recreation System Plan update and are directly reflected in the goals and strategies described in Chapter 3 that will guide decision-making for parks and recreation over the next 10 years. Parks and Recreation Advisory Board Input The City team and MIG presented the draft System Plan update to the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board (PRAB) on October 11. The team will update council as to PRAB's review and recommendation. Next Steps Once the council is comfortable with the Parks and Recreation System Plan update, the City team will look to them to direct that the System Plan be scheduled on a future meeting agenda for them to consider adoption. Once the System Plan is adopted, work will begin on an implementation plan to assist City Council with work related to Council Goal 4. OTHER ALTERNATIVES Not applicable. COUNCIL GOALS, POLICIES, APPROVED SYSTEM PLANS This project directly addresses Council Goal 4 and will update and replace the current Parks System Plan. It aligns with Tigard's vision of being, " An equitable community that is walkable, healthy, and accessible for everyone". The proposed plan embraces the Community Promise and embraces the 5 Es- environemnt, economu, environment, equity and excellance.

Tigard currently • More Limited Recreation Programming.Tigard has lean staffing in both these areas. Especially with offers less programming than peer agencies and offers a communications and marketing functions,the workload more limited range of recreation options than is the norm is bigger than can be supported by existing parks in the Metro region.
