A. Significant, Outstanding or Needed
The resources listed in this inventory are determined to be
significant, outstanding and needed related to the overall
development of Tigard as a diverse community. It is the
determination of the City through this Goal #5 process that
these resources are of great value to the community and should
be preserved, or preserved to some degree. The City Council
wants to encourage the Historic District Overlay designation
on historic sites. For that reason several sites in the
Citv's Planning Area have been identified and the Washington
County :Museum has conducted culturalinventories for each
site. Due to the limitations placed on the, roperty owner.by
the Historic District Overlay, however, the Council 'haa an
.,.` informal policy to place the historic overlay_ designation on
sites only with the suvoort of the property owner.

EXHIBIT "A"
0, JOY THEATRE
The Washington County Museum has performed a cultural resource inventory
on the joy Theatre and determined that it is ..pie of the few significant
architectural examples of Art Deco/Moderne Style Buildings in Tigard.
Built in 1939, it is the only indoor theatre in Tigard with a classical
marquee. Although tete lobby of the theatre was remodeled after 1939, the
remaining portions of the structure are original and the theatre has never
been used for anything other than a theatre use.
The Tigard Comprehensive Plan designates the resource site for
Commercial-General with the same underlying zoning; which allows
theatres outright. Therefore, there would not be any conflicting
uses due to land use designations, In addition, adjacent uses
include commercial and office uses which complement the theatre.
In order to protect this important landmark, the City approached the
property owner, J. J. Taggart, about assigning a Historic District Overlay
to the property. Mr. Taggart has indicated to the City that he is not
n•i ctri rt for the property at thio time.
.
It is the City Council's policy not to place the Historic Overlay
designation on a site without the support of the property owner. In
addition, the Joy Theatre is on a site with no off-street parking, and the
abutting property owners are concerned that the Historic District Overlay
will constrain future development in the area,
P. UPSHAW HOUSE/SEVEN GABLES
The Washington County Museum has completed a Cultural Resource Inventory
on the Upshaw/House of Seven Gables. Although this resource has been
subject to several alterations and remodelings, its' integrity has not
been compromised. The home is in good condition, well maintained and
respected by the current owners. The residence was erected around 1909,
and has never been moved. The site is now approximately 1.1 acres,
although it appears to have once been at least 13•-15 acres.
The Comprehensive Plan designates the area for Low Density
Residential with an underlying zone designation of R-10 (Single
Family Residential). Therefore, there is not a conflict between the
existing use and the land use designation.
In order to protect this resource, the City approached the property
owners, Susan and Dennis Reed, about assigning a Historic District Overlay
to the property. The Reeds have indicated to the City that they are not
interested in the Historic Overlay District for the property at this time.
It is the ^ity Council's policy not to place the Historic Overlay District
designation on a site w-ithout the support of the property owner. The
Reeds have indicated a desire to protect the character of the structure
but do not want future owners of the property to be limited by the
..: Historic District designation,
¢. TIGARD GRANGE
The Washington County Museum has completed a Cultural Resource Inventory
on the Tigard Grange and has determined that the building is historically
significant in that it has been in use as a Grange Hall since it was
constructed in 1425. The building has kept its original integrity and is
in good condition.
The Tigard Comprehensive Plan designates for this resource site is
Commercial--General with an underlying zoning designation of C- G
(General Commercial). There does not seem to be a conflict
concerning land use. Church uses are not permitted in a C-G zoning
district, therefore, it is considered nonconforming. Its use or
other subsequent commercial use, however, may be appropriate,
provided -that the architectural character of the structure remains.
In order to protect this resource, the City approached the Grange members
about assigning a Historic District Overlay to the site. The Grange
members have riot held a meeting to consider the matter. It is the City
Council's policy not to place the Historic District Overlay designation on
a site with put the support of the property owner. Tho members of tha
tigard orange will consider the placing the Historic District Overlay on
the property and will be encouraged by the City to protect the resource by
assigning the designation to �;he site.
R. KALLSTROM FIR GROVE
It has been determined by the City that the Kallstrom Fir Grove is a
significant Visual and Natural resource. Located on the east property
line of the Kallstrom property, the trees represent the only major stand
of Douglas Firs on the south side of the Little Bull Mountain area.
Planted by the original. owners of the property, the unique row of trees
represent a visual landmark for the residents in the area. There is a
small plaque along SW 100th denoting the fir grove.
r
The Comprehensive Plan indicates a Low Density Residential (1-5 units
per acre) designation for the area with an underlying zoning district
designation of R-10 (Single Family Residential). There are no land
use conflicts between the use and the tree grove other ti^oan the fact
that the grove could possibly be destroyed due to the subsequent
development.
The staff recommendation for this resource is to preserve the visual and
natural resource. The City recommends that a special NPO !#b policy be
written to call special attention to preservation of these trees
regardless of the type of subsequent development that may occur on the
site. The policy may read:
THE CITY SHALL PRESERVE THE KALLSTROM FIR GROVE ON N.W. 100TH AVENUE'.
a< ANY DEVELOPMENT ON OR ADJACENT TO THE SITE ?"I WHICH THE TREES ARE
LOCATED SHALL INCORPORATE THE FIR GROVE INTO THE DEVELOPMENT PLANS.
b. A DENSITY TRANSFER SHALL BE PERMITTED IN LIEU OF DESTROYING THE TREES.
S. TIGARD FARMHOUSE AND WINDMILL
�. The Washington County Museum has performed a Cultural Resource Inventory
on the Tigard Farmhouse and Windmill and determined that it is a
significant resource, due to its association with the Cowgill family for
many years. It is also one of the few bungalow farmhouses remaining with
a watertower- 9ti i i intact on tfie property. Th. was constructed in
the early 1900'x.
The Comprehensive Plan designation for the resource is Medium Density
Residential (5-12 units per acre) with an underlying zoning of R-12
(Multiple Family). The land use designation could be a potential
problem related to land values and the feasibility of keeping the
single family farmhouse and windmill structures amongst higher
density development. In 1982, the owner of the site partitioned off
the farmhouse and windmill from the remaining 10 acres; thus somewhat
deterring extensive development of the resource, In addition, it is
possible to integrate the farmhouse and windmill architecture into
any development proposal. This would be accomplished via the
Planning Development (PD) process.
In order to protect this resource, the City approached the prupi!rty
owners, Herb Burns and Donna Flemmer, about assigning a Historic District
Overlay to the property. The owners have indicated to the City that they
are not interested in tha Historic Overlay District for the property at
this time. It is the City Council's policy not to place the Historic
Overlay District designation on a site without the support of the property
owner.
T. TIGARD FEED AND SEED
The Washington County Museum has completed a Cultural Resource Inventory
on Tigard Feed and Seed. The store is not determined to be historically
significant but is significant to the City of Tigard in its association
with the variety of colorful owners since it's construction in 1924. The
store is the only wood frame building on Main Street that has not been
significally altered.
The Comprehensive Plan designated the site as Central Business
District (CSD) with the same underlying soning district, In
addition, this site falls within the Tigard Urban Revitalization Area
which is currently the subject of a revitalization effort.
Even though the store is not considered historically significant, the
owner was contacted about assigning a Historic District Overlay to the
I site. The owner, H.A. Johnson, was interested, however, Mr. Johnson owns
only the building, The land is owned by Southern Pacific, The Land
Development:, Manager at Southern Pacific indicated that Southern Pacific
usually resists assigning Historic Overlays to their property.
"It is the City Council's policy not to puce the Historic District Overlay
designation on a site without the support of the property owner. In
/ addition, since the site has not been determined to be historically
significant, the Historic District Overlay designation may not be
appropriate on this site,
