22., 1986, upon a Council request by motion to call the application up for
review of the Hearings Officer's approval of the application request; and
WHEREAS, the City Council had before it the Hearings Officer's approval,
transcript of the hearing, staff report, and documentation provided by the
applicant as part of the application; and
WHEREAS, the applicable criteria in this decision are the following:
policies 8.2.1 and 8.2.2 of the Tigard Comprehensive Plan and Chapter
18.130.040 and 18.130.060 of the Community Developrant Code.
WHEREAS, based upon the record in this case, the City Council makes the
following findings of fact:
Section 1: The subject property is located at 8960 SW Commercial Street
(WCTM 2S1 2AA lot 4901 S. 4800).

proposal conforms to the applicable criteria contained in the Tigard
Municipal Code.
(2) The City Council concludes that the applicant's proposal is
consistent with Comprehensive Plan policies 8.2.1 and 8.2.2 which
call for the promotion of public transportation.
(3) The City Council concludes that, assuming the disposal of storm water

(5) The City Council concludes that at least two spaces for bicycle
parking should be provided on site.
(6) The City Council concludes that the proposed Tigard Transit Center is
riot expected to impact the traffic operations of the adjacent
streets. The p m. peak hour level of service at the Main Street/
Commercial Street int.prsection will be the same with or without the
proposed site under present and future (2005) traffic volume
conditions.
(7) The City Council concludes that the existing stop sign control of the
Main Street/Commercial Street intersection will provide for
acceptable level of service operations for the existing and future
traffic volumes with the proposed site. The 1986 level of service is
expected to be "C" and the year 2005 level of service was calculated
to be "D" with the proposed transit center.
(8) The City Council concludes that the expected gaps in vehicle flow
along Commercial Street will easily accommodate entering/exiting of
buses at the site access driveways.
(9) The City Council concludes that the site plan allows for a minimum of
250 feet of unimpeded sight distance for bus drivers leaving the
site. This distance provides a safe stopping sight distance for
motorists traveling at 35 miles per hour. It is recommended that the
departure of the buses from the two street bays occur before the
remaining buses. This recommended bus operations procedure will
greatly increase the site distance for both bus drivers and
Commercial Street motorists.
The City Council, therefore, orders the above referenced application be
approved subject to the following conditions:
1. UNLESS OTHERWISE NOTED, ALL CONDITIONS SHALL BE MET PRIOR 'TO ISSUANCE
OF BUILDING PERMITS.

vehicle marking is required; final design to be approved by the
Engineering Division. Final design shall include street structural

collector structural requirements may riot be sufficient.
