Introduction
1994 was a year of change for the City of Tigard.
k
THE PAST YEAR AND THIS PRESENT
t
a Key policy-Makers
The City had three sitting mayors and elected a fourth.
We said goodbye to one city administrator and welcomed
another. We also welcomed two new city councilors. It
truly was a year of change of key policy makers at city
hall. C
Water k
E
In 1994, Tigard became the water provider for the
mcljcass-LY vi tine households and businesses in the city. In
addition, negotations began with Lake Oswego to provide
long-term water needs of -the district as well as
ownership of the treatment facility. The Tigard area ~
water district has never owned its water supply and has
i
had to rely can other distracts for -water. These
taegtsLlatiunti could sailovs us to own our owa water supply.
6
Metro 2040
This past year the Metro 2040 plan became reality which
will require changes to our current comprehensive plan g
and removing more local control to a regional authority.
At the saute time, Metro is pushing us to increase
density, that is, the number of residents per acre.
Sixsce Lhis is considered undesireable to most Tigard
residents, I would hope that the new Metro board will
reconsider that element of the r
plan sometime in the
future.
}
L
f
Yard Debris
1994 saw the beginning of yard debris collection for our
J residents. This is a mandated program, maintained by the
private disposal coopanies in our area, which will reduce ;
;a
the amount of garbage going to our landfill and increase
the recycling in our community.
Citizen Involvement Tears
} M.r
The clLy euharnced its citizen involvement teams with the
goal to encourage increased citizen participation and
j cul'LivaL a efftst;Live cojit8Etunicdtiou between City Mall -and
1 Tigard residents. I hope that even more people as time
gaiGt~' U11 WC)Uld Lake advantage of these teams to
i communicate with the Council and city staff.
Arts Policy
~ R
For the first time ever the city council created an arts
Policy Lo rund arList.ic activity in the community.
i
Funding levels are yet to be determined. Staff is
t:ux2:ex7& l-y loz'a.esljasj gvi aApuL rxasskh c:!Ly 1:ekila:aents regarding
possible ,projects.
Homeless
The homeless issue was addresser) by a citizen task force
which iusLiga-ted a necessary course of action. Although
more remains to be done, the work accomplished by the 4
Leek force was an in teyr-al stud significant part of the
continuing process.
i
Tax Base
Or. November 8, Tigard voters approved a new tax base.
The effect of the new Maas base will be the -addition of
several new police officers and the stability of all
exis,Li:ig city services for several years to come.
i
-
3 FUTURE
i
This next year brings many challenges to our Council and
Staff.
.r
Growth
Residential and commercial growth remains high in Tigard
as all of Washington County. This places increased
demands can all city services because dealing with growth
issues without increasing staff levels is always
difficult. Growth in 1994 was dorm is all areas of s
construction compared to the year prior; and 1995 will
probably not see an increase in construction activity.
_j Fiscal Management
r:
A solid budqet and financial management are necessities
in all organizations. The city of Tigard will soon begin. ~
the development of its budget for the 1995-1996 fiscal
year- We will continue to manage tax dollars very
carefully. i
Transportation
. i
. Transportation presents signifIcaant challenges for our
res:iueiats and those who pass through Tigard on a daily
i
basis. With an annual incE eaase lia tcaEfic: voluide of Len
- perc'e at each year, this problem will only get worse.
{ Studies are currently under-way -fur the 1-5/217 intei-
c:iaFnge aYad Pacific Highway. Both projects lack adequate
funding at this time. The Western Bypass :9tudy has also j
i
stalled. Tigard needs to become a regional player in
transportation to eaasure that additional projects are la
1 t.[1C plaaaaing &aad development stage and will recieve
funding- This will be -fuy hig'01'esL pr:ioa:i%y -as juayoi:.
' Volunteers
a F:
I feel it is important to mention the volunteers who not'.
only assist the'City of Tigard but the organizations that ~
provide services and oversee activities in this
community. These groups substantially increase the
livability and duality of life in this community. I
r-
welcome input from them as to ways the Council may assist
them.
- a
1
Staff
k
R No organization mould be complete without the employees
E
who actually carry out the policies of the council. I
believe the City is fortunate to have quality employees 1
who are experts in their fields. I look forward to
getting acquainted with them over the newt four years
CONCI'L JSION
A t
The Council will be meeting in early February to
est.asblish: its goals for the next two years, wetting up
the direction of the city. itbi. significant nawness in
the city team, new relationships are being developed, and
I axe looping forward to this key event to stengthen our
team.
I wish to thank the staff, councilors and Mayor Schwartz
for their help over the past two months in the
preparation for any role as mayor.
I thank the citizens of Tigard for entrusting me in this
N
role. I will do spy best to meet your weeds and to
maintain the quality of life in Tigard.

JW Y 10, 1995
i
over the past twelve months, the City of Tigard has experienced f
several changes. The majority of the members of the City Council
' were not on the Council at this time last year. Nor was I employed
as city Administrator. The challenge for 1995 is for the Mayor,
f
Council., Administration, and employees to hear, interpret, and
carry out the goals of the citizens of Tigard.
The citizens of Tigard have approved a new tax base which.goes into
effect in July 1996. We are in the final eighteen months of the
' existing five-year plan. The support given to the tax base
proposal last November illustrates the citizens' support of
existing city programs and a willingness to allow for expansion of
services to addressthe impacts of growth. Steps that we take in
1995 will allow for the most effective use of the tax bade
increase.
City efforts to communicate effectively with the }public will
continue to be a high priority. Through the Citizen Involvement
Team (CIT) process and Cityscape, the City attempts to keep the f
public informed of City issues. More will be done in 1995 as we
attempt to factor citizen input into areas of city-wide
significance.
Page 1
~ t
!a
i
j Several. important and controversial topics and issues were studied
l and discussed over the pest year. Some will be carried over for
further re'v'iew and analysis in 1995. Among them, the tree
ordinance, Tigard Triangle Study, and water supply will dominate
i F
the Council calendar in the initial months of the year. Both the
tree ordinance and Triangle Study have undergone extensive public
participation.
The water supply issue has primarily been a staff and Council
effort. As the City has assumed greater responsibility for the
administration of the water system, the major remaining task is the
creation of a long-term relationship with a provider of water.
Discussions have been held over the past several months with
F
representatives of Lake Oswego to secure a partnership where
Tigard, Durham, King City, and the. Tigard Water District share in
the ownership and operation of a water system with secure water
rights. Other options must also be explored as the City makes a
i decision which will result in a significant financial commitment.
i
{ Besides the water issue, Tigard is involved in several issues that
go beyond our boundaries. In transportation, 1995 is the year that
significant decisions on the western Bypass, 1-5/217 Interchange }
Subarea Study, and 99W should be made. It is also expected that a p
third Major Streets Transportations improvement Program 4MSTIpj will
be peat before the voters . If approved, the HSTIP will provide f
funding to address City as well as County transportation concerns.
Page 2
I _
a -

r '
within the City, we will contiraue.to carry out the city's first ~
F
seven-year Capital Improvement Program, adopted in 1994. Projects
aimed at street and storm drainage improvements will be underway t_
throughout the year. At the same time, we will further refine our ~
transportation and street classification systems.
Planning for growth in Tigard remains a challenge as development
activity continued strong in 1994 and is expected to continue in
1995. In 1994, four Comprehensive Plan amendments were wade which
{
i will allow for increased commercial development. Commercial
development will continue to occur primarily in the Triangle and
72nd Avenue areas. The completion of Dartmouth Street and
reconstruction of the 99W and 72nd Avenue intersection, led to the
occupancy of the Cub Foods complex, Costco and an application for
an additional large retail center. in 4-16 Psaic Mist" '.me'.:en an
72nd:, a 125,000 square feet office retail center was approved. E
More development is planned. E
Construction activity in 1994 was strong although below the 1993
pace. overall, new valuation was $88.7 million, a significant
increase in city value.
i
i
As development continues, City staff is busy addressing several
environmental concerns. An inventory and assessment of forest
Areas was completed in 1994. A draft tree ordinance was prepared
Page 3
j and reviewed which is now under review by a City task force. These
f : ...1
s projects will be completed around the time that a now Community
Development Director is hired. Among the Director': duties, will
i
be the task of reviewing and proposing amendments to the
Development Code so that this rights of existing residents and
neighborhoods are balanced with the rights of those who choose to °
develop their land. The harmonious integration of new
subdivisions, multi-family, and commercial uses into the fabric of
Tigard while preserving the many positive community features is an
ever-present goal. As infill development occurs, the final links
,a in our greenway parkway systems area beginning to fall into place.
Increased concern for customer service is an sver-present goal.
yHk~v
Police, Library, Maintenance Services, Finance, Engineering and
Community Development, have all made improved service for customers
-7 a major goal. community Development., along with Enngineering, is
i I.
? reorganizing its approach to front-counter service by consolidating
certain building and engineering functions into a four-member team
of Development Services technicians. This team concept represents
an effort to increase the City's effectiveness by empowering a
cross-trained staff to provide: a full-service approach to customer } -
inquiries.
i
Another challenge facings the city is the continued need to address
the problems of homelessness in Tigard as well as Washington County.
A task force was created in August to study the issue of
" Page 4
.mod ~
t
.i
i
homelessness and made recommendations. a result of their work,
~~f in Rovember the City Council accepted the .'ask Force's report and F
i took action. A severe-weather policy was adopted and the Tigard i
A 'Dater Building was rude available as a. severe-weather shelter as -of e
December 5. in 1995, the City will take steps to educate the ~
public about the problems of homelessness. Tigard will also work
with the Task Force members to facilitate formation of an eastern
Washington County Task Force with a goal of siting a permanent
homeless shelter serving the area. E
! Besides supporting the efforts of the Homeless Task Force, the City
is supporting the efforts of the Downtown Merchants Association. ~
a The Association plans several improvements to the downtown
A
,..a utilizing a grant from the City. The investment of funds by
property owmers coupled with City funds, capital improvement
a ty as~c_ a t.s focused on the downtown

should improve the economic viability of the area.
As growth continues to place pressures on our City facilities,
i
.infrastructure, as well a Police and Library resources, we strive
for ways to deliver service to a. growing population base. Police
have devoted attention to increasing neighborhood watch there
f
are 66 active neighborhood watch programs. The introduction of the
Community Service Officer Program in 1994 has allowed us to
redirect some of our uniformed officers to higher priority concerns

while at the same time transferring the. Codes enforcement program

to the Cso's to allow for greater coverages.
"the Library continues to respond to growing and changing demands
-j for service. Circulation reached an all-time high mark in 1994.
j At the same time, now services and the manner of delivering service
d
changed. Changes were made to introduce technology while reducing i
1 cost of service. Volunteers helped offset growth as the level of
-I volunteer contributions reached a new high. The contracting out of
1
i Educational services allowed for a significant cost-savings with no F
,.1
lass of services.
The City staff will continue to work with Council and citizens to ;
respond to change while fine tuning services that are provided.
Technological advances will be monitored and changes proposed so
that the level of service can continues to keep pace with demands in
1995.
_T
1 loop forward to working with the Council, staff and citizens as
we face the challenges of 1995.
