December 19, 2005 !OEC 2 9 2005 Administration Mayor Craig Dirksen City of Tigard 13125 SW Hall Blvd. Tigard, OR 97223 Dear Mayors Faes and Dirksen, I have received a copy of the proposed memorandum of understanding (MOU)between King City and the City of Tigard that will establish a foundation for the development of an Urban Services agreement for King City as desired by both Washington County and King City. To that end, Washington County has facilitated meetings between King City and Tigard to discuss future boundary issues and assisted the cities in drafting this MOU to clarify these issues. I understand that the mayors of both cities endorse the MOU and will recommend adoption by their respective city councils. While County Administrator Charles Cameron and staff facilitated the discussion between the two cities, I recognize that the product of those discussions was agreed to by the cities of their own volition. I also appreciate that the agreement between two mayors is not binding, but it is the first step toward the adoption of a King City Urban Services Agreement. I support your efforts and the MOU for the following reasons: ❑ King City and Washington County believe an Urban Services Agreement is a necessary step in fulfilling future growth plans and determining the King City's potential over time. ❑ As we have determined through our experience in other Urban Service Agreement processes, the early consideration of future boundaries serves to significantly shorten the timeline for the development of the agreement. This candid"laying of the cards on the table"by the participants relieves the process of substantial uncertainty. This type of coordination should provide us a firm basis for the subsequent discussions. On behalf of the Washington County Board of Commissioners, please accept my congratulations on arriving at an agreement that each of you feels will well-serve your respective communities. I look forward to the development of the Urban Services Agreement. Sincerely, row Tom Brian, Chairman Washington County Board of Commissioners Board of County Commissioners 155 North First Avenue, Suite 300, MS 22, Hillsboro, OR 97124-3072 phone: (503)846-8681 • fax: (503)846-4545
