NATURAL RESOURCES AND HISTORIC AREAS
ach community possesses certain
natural and historic resources that
help to establish its identity. Tigard
is fortunate to contain a variety of these
resources that contribute to its high quality
natural
of life. From the riparian corridors along the
Tualatin River and its tributaries, to the City's
resources are
wetlands, to the upland habitat resources, the
community's natural resources are a visual i visual and
and ecological asset. The historic and cultural
resources of the community represent a part ecological
of the community that provides a living history
i
of the area. Protecting and conserving these
resources are vital components to a successful
land use planning program.
FROM
"To protect natural resources and conserve scenic and historic areas and open spaces."
As awareness of the importance of natural and historic resources and their
relationship to the quality of life has increased, so has concern for protecting
these resources. Protecting the City's valuable natural and historic resources
is thus one of Tigard's primary goals. In addition, the City must comply with
federal, state,and regional laws protecting the resources,including sensitive,
threatened, and endangered species and their habitats. The following resources
are addressed in this chapter:
■ Fish and Wildlife Habitat
■ Wetlands
■ Streams
■ Groundwater
■ Historic and Cultural Resources
As Tigard's population continues to grow, so does the potential for conflict
between the desire to preserve resources and the need to provide adequate land
for growth.As development patterns change to accommodategrowth,more
pressure is placed on the resources that are present. The tension between the
built and natural environments results from the competition for land resources.
The steady trend of growth and development further necessitates the impor-
tance of finding a suitable balance in the future, both locally and regionally.

NATURAL RESOURCES AND HISTORIC AREAS
Fish and Wildlife Habitat
Despite growing urbanization.Tigard and the surrounding area remain home
to an impressive diversity of birds,mammals, fish, amphibians and reptiles.
Fish and wildlife species depend on a complex array of habitat conditions for
their food,water,mobility, security,and reproductive needs. Wildlife habitat
within the City of Tigard is heavily concentrated adjacent to water bodies, such
as Summer and Fanno Creeks,Summer Lake,and the wetlands in Cook Park.
However, there are patches of upland habitat in drier,higher elevations across
the City, such as the forested ravines of Bull Mountain. This upland vegetation
not only contributes in providing protective cover for wildlife,but also contrib-
utes to the aesthetic quality of the community and serves as an essential element
in controlling runoff and soil erosion,moderating temperatures, and reducing
air pollution.
A number of agencies are involved in the effort to address the management
and protection of fish and wildlife habitat. In 2000,Metro began work on a
regional inventory of significant fish and wildlife habitat, focusing on riparian
corridor and wildlife habitat resources. Shortly after completion of the inven-
tory in 2002,the Tualatin Basin Partners for Natural Places, an alliance between
Washington County and local cities (including Tigard) working with Metro,
Tualatin Hills Parks and Recreation District and Clean Water Services,was
formed to meet relevant federal, state,and regional requirements. Metro
entered into an intergovernmental agreement (IGA) with the Tualatin Basin
Partners for Natural Places to develop a basin-specific approach to protect
Goal 5 (riparian and wildlife habitat) resources in compliance with Metro's
Urban Growth Management Functional Plan,Title 3 (Water Quality and Flood
Management) and Title 13 (Nature in Neighborhoods).The result of the IGA
was the City adopting the Significant Habitat Areas Map and voluntary habitat
friendly development provisions in December 2006 that seek to protect the
wildlife habitat identified within the community. The provisions include an
opportunity for low impact development practices that can reduce impacts to
the identified resources.
The Tualatin Basin Partners for Natural Places used the regional habitat inven-
tory as the basis for conducting a general analysis of the Economic,Social,
Environmental, and Energy (ESEE) consequences of allowing,limiting,or
prohibiting uses that would negatively impact inventoried resources. The site-
specific component of the ESEE analysis provided a more localized analysis
and an opportunity to refine the Basin-wide"limit" decision where necessary.
5-2 City of Tigard I Comprehensive Plan
NATURAL RESOURCES AND HISTORIC AREAS
The analysis results show that the City of Tigard has 588 acres of habitat desig-
nated as "highest"value (i.e. Metro inventoried Class I and II riparian resources
within the Clean Water Services Vegetated Corridor). An estimated 370 acres
of Class I and II riparian habitat situated outside the Clean Water Services'
vegetated corridor are designated as "moderate"value. In addition,422 acres of
non-Class I and II riparian resources within the City are designated as "lowest"
value,including both upland and lower-value riparian habitat areas.
-------------
Wetlands
"Wetlands
Wetlands,including swamps,bogs, fens,marshes, i
lso offer
and estuaries,play a crucial role in a healthy
ecosystem by providing essential habitat for prime
waterfowl, fish, amphibians and many otherfor people
animal and plant species. The state defines a
wetland as an area that is inundated or saturated to witness 11�n
by surface water or groundwater at a frequency
and duration sufficient to supportthe wonders
, and that under
normal circumstances does support,a prevalence
of vegetation typically adapted for life in satu- O
f a unique
rated soil conditions (Oregon Administrative Rule
natural
(OAR) 660-023-0100). These areas also serve
5.7
several natural hydrologic functions,including
absorbing flood waters, sustaining summer stream
flows,replenishing groundwater,and filtering out -
harmful pollutants from waterways. Wetlands also offer prime sites for people
to witness the wonders of a unique natural setting where fish,wildlife,plants,
and water converge.These beneficial functions of wetlands,however,may be
adversely affected by human activities such as encroachment through develop-
ment,alterations to natural drainage patterns,pollution,and the introduction of
nuisance plant species.
As outlined under OAR 141-086 for Wetland Conservation Planning,Tigard's
locally significant wetlands were designated according to the criteria and proce-
dures for identification of significant wetlands adopted by DSL. Inventoried
wetlands were deemed significant if they received the highest rating on at least
two of the four primary wetland functions,namely wildlife habitat, fish habitat,
water quality,and hydrological control. Of the wetlands (within the City limits)
identified in Tigard's Local Wetlands Inventory,roughly 98% are classified as
significant wetlands.
Comprehensive Plan I City of Tigard 5-3
O
D NATURAL RESOURCES AND HISTORIC AREAS
In 1997, the City of Tigard Local Wetlands Inventory (LWI) and Wetlands
Assessment were approved by DSL. Approval by DSL means that the wetlands
inventory meets state LWI standards, and therefore becomes part of the
State Wetlands Inventory and must be used in lieu of the National Wetlands
Inventory.
Since the approval of the LWI, several new wetland delineations have occurred
within the city limits. These new delineations were performed by wetland profes-
sionals and concurred by DSL.The newly delineated wetlands become part
of the LWI, although a function assessment was not performed. Without the
assessment, significance cannot be determined. However, the majority of the
newly delineated wetlands is currently under protection from the City's sensi-
tive lands review process because of their location in a stream corridor, 100-
year floodplain, or within the CWS vegetated corridor. The remaining wetlands,
although not covered by the City's sensitive lands review process,are subject to
the state Removal-Fill Law and must secure permits as required by the law.
Streams
Roughly 30 miles of stream corridors cross through the City and nearly all the
streams in Tigard drain into Fanno Creek,which then flows into the Tualatin
River. These stream corridors provide a complex ecosystem linking water,
land,plants,and animals. They perform several ecological functions,including
storing and conveying surface water,modulating flows,removing pollutants,and
providing vital habitat for aquatic organisms.
The City collaborates with Clean Water Services (CWS), the surface water
management and sanitary sewer system utility for urban Washington County,
to protect local water resources. Through CWS Design and Construction
Standards,local governments in the Tualatin Basin (including Tigard) developed
a unified program to address water quality and flood management requirements
for Title 3 of Metro's Urban Growth Management Functional Plan.
In 2002, the City of Tigard adopted regulations restricting development within,
and adjacent to, sensitive water resource areas,including streams, through
standards in the CWS Design and Construction Standards. The CWS standards
provide for vegetated corridor buffers, ranging from 15 to 200 feet wide,and
mandate restoration of corridors in marginal or degraded condition. In addition,
land-use applicants proposing development near streams and wetlands are
required to prepare a site assessment and obtain approval from CWS prior to
submitting a land use application to the City.
5-4 City of Tigard I Comprehensive Plan
NATURAL RESOURCES AND HISTORIC AREAS
Additionally, the Tigard Community Development Code (18.775) contains a
chapter devoted to the protection of sensitive lands,including natural drainage-
ways,wetlands, and the 100-year floodplain,by requiring applicants proposing
development within a sensitive area to obtain a permit for certain activities
depending on their nature and intensity.
The City of Tigard also collaborates in implementing Clean Water Services'
Healthy Streams Plan (June 2005). The goal of this plan is to improve watershed
and stream health for community benefit by recommending a number of policy
and program refinements,as well as outlining a capital projects program. The
capital projects focus on stream preservation and enhancement, flow restoration,
community tree planting, stormwater outfall and culvert replacement.
Groundwater
The importance of groundwater to the community is twofold. First,it serves
the function of naturally replenishing surface waters such as wetlands, streams,
and lakes.This helps provide vital habitat for aquatic organisms and wildlife.
Secondly,it is a source of clean water to help meet human water needs for
drinking, household use,commercial/industrial use,and irrigation.
The western portion of the City of Tigard is located above the Cooper
Mountain/Bull Mountain Critical Groundwater Area. The Critical Groundwater
Area was declared in 1973 in response to heavy pumping and the slow rate of
recharge. This is significant because the City owns water rights to withdraw
groundwater from the aquifer and it was once an important source of drinking
water. Currently,the City of Tigard Water Division has one groundwater well in
operation that is available to supplement the drinking water supply in times of
high demand.The Water Division has also developed Aquifer Storage Recovery
wells that allow potable water to be injected into the aquifer during the winter to
supplement the summer high demands.
Historic and Cultural Resources
In 1984, the City adopted a Cultural Resource Overlay District to manage signif-
icant historic resources. Sectiola 18.740 of the Community Development Code
governs the application and removal of the district overlay, the primary purpose
of which is to facilitate the protection, enhancement, and conservation of land-
marks and historic and cultural sites and areas. Under state law(ORS 197.772)
enacted in 1995,a local government is required to allow a property owner to
Comprehensive Plan I City of Tigard 5-5
O �
NATURAL RESOURCES AND HISTORIC AREAS
remove a historic property designation that was imposed by the local govern-
ment;in addition,the property owner may refuse to consent to the designation
at any time in the process,thus removing the property from consideration for all
but the National Register of Historic Places.The implication of the statute and
rule for Tigard's current historic code provisions is that if the property desig-
nation does not have owner consent, the provisions are no longer relevant or
enforceable.
Local conservation efforts can be combined with the National Register of
Historic Places (the National Register),a list of cultural resources of national,
regional, state,or local significance that is kept by the Department of the
Interior's (DOI) National Park Service (NPS). Being listed on the Register does
not protect a property from demolition,but it does document and evaluate the
property's historic significance based on National Register criteria and makes the
property eligible for federal grants when available,including rehabilitation tax
credits.
Many of the cultural resources associated with the original development of
the Tigard area have not survived the City's growth during the last forty years.
Improvements to Hwy 99W also contributed to the demise of the City's
resource base. Those resources that survived include a mix of residential, educa-
tional,and commercial buildings.
Currently,nine resources have the overlay designation.Two sites,the John F.
Tigard House and the Shaver-Bilyeu House,are listed on the National Historic
Register.The only property from which the overlay has been removed was the
Tigard Feed and Garden Store when the owner initiated the removal request.
Chapter 18.740 of the Community Development Code requires that if an
overlay property receives approval for demolition,a condition of approval
will require submittal of a graphic and pictorial history and artifacts to the
Washington County Museum.
KEY FINDINGS:
■ City sustainability programs will be evaluated for inclusion in the Capital
Improvement Plan and may have an impact on future building renovations
as it relates to the Tigard Community Development Code.
