City Manager Prosser introduced Finance
Director Bob Sesnon who started at the City
on February 13, 2006.

Tigard High School Activities. A copy of her
report is on file in the City Recorder's office.

landslides. She said tree removal requirements for
slopes need to be reviewed.
Mayor Dirksen noted that this land is not in the
City limits, but in the urban services area;
therefore, any change adopted by Tigard would
need to be adopted by the County also.
Councilor Harding said she wants to discuss at
next week's Planning Commission meeting, the
negative effects development can have on
neighboring properties.
• Cleon Cox III, 13580 SW Ash Ave., Tigard, OR,
discussed his perception of a lack of
communication and customer service from the
City. He recalled being the only person to testify
in person on a particular matter at a prior
Council meeting, yet he knew a neighbor had
submitted written comments in a letter. He did
not see the letter opened and read at the meeting.
His concern is that a decision was made without
consideration of all available public input. He
realizes that the Council is charged with making
decisions but must rely on information given to
them by staff. He urged the Councilors to make
sure the staff is doing all they can to get them
necessary information. He was in the City's
volunteer leadership group and their final project
was to put together a packet of communication
ideas. This was given to the Assistant to the City
Manager. He said citizens who want to be heard

do not feel heard. People who had issues felt
they were not being listened to by City staff and
the Council. He asked how this can be resolved.
Mr. Cox used an example of a citizen asking
about a Highway 99W traffic issue, who was told
that ODOT was in charge of the highway.
Why, Mr. Cox asked, didn't the staff person talk
to ODOT rather than suggest that the citizen do
it? He said City staff members know the
transportation lingo and could be more effective.
Mr. Cox reiterated that communication must be
improved.
Councilor Harding asked him for suggestions
and requested information from him for, next
week's meeting where better communication is
an agenda item.
Fifth Tuesday Meeting Follow-up:
City Council and City Manager Prosser discussed
the issue regarding Development Code
regulations for towers. This matter was brought
to the City Council at its January 31 Fifth
Tuesday meeting because of a radio tower
constructed in a neighborhood.
Interim Community Development Director
Coffee said the Development Code does not
define the term "attached" as it applies to an
accessory structure. Whether or not a structure
is attached to the main structure affects setback
requirements. Councilor Wilson requested that
tower height and attachment requirements be
added to the list of items for the Development
Code discussion with the Planning Commission
next week. It was noted that the neighborhood
group that attended the January 31 Fifth
Tuesday meeting should be provided a status
report on what is being done to look into their
concerns. In addition there was a suggestion
that the process to appeal staff interpretations be
discussed with the Planning Commission next
week.
Other matters at the Council's Fifth Tuesday
meeting included:

o A signal at Main Street and Tigard Street -
This will be reviewed as part of the
downtown development.
o Suggestion for feedback in the Cityscape for
Parks and Recreation. (Parks and Recreation
Advisory Board feedback).
o Concern with changes with a development
after the developer's meeting with a
neighborhood. It was noted that the public
should be informed that a development
could change as it moves through the
process, which includes public hearings.
City Manager Prosser indicated he would review
the notes from the Fifth Tuesday Meeting and
provide the City Council with additional follow
up information.

District No. 35 The motion was approved
(Ash Avenue) Public Hearing Testimony- by a unanimous vote of
Council present.
Cleon Cox III said he had several things he wanted to
point out: 1) During testimony on the formation of Mayor Dirksen Yes
District No. 35, he said there were two protests, his Councilor Harding Yes
and another one written by a woman who could not Councilor Sherwood Yes
attend the meeting. He said her written testimony Councilor Wilson Yes
was not opened during the public hearing. He Councilor Woodruff Yes
thought the meeting minutes should reflect that. 2)
He asked why this was not made into a Local
Improvement District. 3) His final bill had increased
by 50% and there was a 10% increase in cost within
six months, which was high. He asked what this rate
was based on. He noted that one person listed on
this District's map lived closer to an existing line on
Garrett Street than the proposed line on Ash Street.
Mr. Cox wondered why City staff didn't know about
this option for that owner's corner lot. He also
questioned the lateral line depths recommended by
the City.
Mayor Dirksen asked City Engineer Duenas to
discuss the lateral line depth estimates. Mr. Duenas
said they plan for worst-case scenarios but owners are
notified to coordinate their property's particular
requirements with the inspector.
Councilor Wilson asked why initial estimates differed
from final costs. Mr. Duenas said all of the bids were
higher than the estimate. The cost of materials had
gone up 20%, partially due to the increased distance
contractors had to travel to obtain gravel. Unstable
land issues experienced during sewer line
construction in the Edgewood/O'Mara Sewer
District made contractors apprehensive of bidding
too low.
Mayor Dirksen said Tigard has a five-year plan to
make sewer available to all residents. Mr. Duenas
said it makes more sense to do it systematically rather
than react to each case of septic sstem failure.

Mr. Cox said the district was not wanted. Councilor
Sherwood reminded him that people do not have to
hook up at the time the lines are put in their street.
City Manager Prosser suggested that Mr. Cox meet
with City Engineer Duenas to get his specific
questions answered.
Mayor Dirksen closed the public hearing.

Tigard's maintenance share for the bridge is reduced
from 57.5% to 45% - a reduction of 12.5% over the
life of the bridge.
Councilor Wilson discussed a letter from Western
Wood Structures of Tualatin questioning the use of
steel rather than wood from a local company. Mr.
Plaza noted that the City has purchased bridges from
Western Wood Structures in the past and that the
material choice for this bridge was controlled by the
Oregon Department of Transportation. Their
concern is leachates into the stream. Both steel and
timber trusses were evaluated and it was determined
that steel would last longer and require less
maintenance. He noted that the steel will be 100%
USA-manufactured.
It was noted that the Tigard Youth Advisory Council
recommended that the City Council approve this
project.

Subject: TYAC support of Tualatin River Bridge Project
Mayor and Council,
On February 1, at the Tigard Youth Advisory Council's meeting, we supported the Tualatin River Bridge
project. It will provide a critical link between the Tualatin skate park and south Beaverton. It will also
provide easier access to youth and connect the parks in both Tigard/Durham and Tualatin.
Thank you,
Sarah Walch
Member of the Youth Advisory Council

CITIZEN COMMUNICATION FOLLOW UP
FOR THE FEBRUARY 14, 2006 MEETING
At the last City Council business meeting held on January 24, 2006, the following individual(s)
testified during Citizen Communications to the City Council:
• John Frewing spoke about the Parks System Development Charges. He said he spoke
at a Council meeting one year ago saying he felt these charges were too low and needed
to be revised annually. His concern was that the property values continue to rise and
the SDC's need to keep pace. Mayor Dirksen asked Dan Plaza to comment and Mr.
Plaza said SDC's are increased annually in January.
• Dave George, of 13132 SW Ascension Drive in Tigard, said he was representing his
neighbors and himself. He said their concern is the lack of parks and open spaces. As a
teacher he used open spaces as outdoor classrooms and feels that many people enjoy
hiking, bird watching and observing wildlife. He is frustrated to see so many open areas
disappearing due to development.
Mayor Dirksen said the City of Tigard shares his concern and is trying to gain more
local control with policy changes. He said this Council is looking for properties not
only inside but outside of the Tigard city limits for future open spaces and parks.
Councilor Wilson said he was disappointed in a recent public opinion poll that showed
people were not interested in spending much for parks. He suggested that Mr. George
and others talk it up among their neighbors. He would like a bond measure for parks.
Follow-up to Previous Citizen Communication: There will be follow-up on the Refuge at
Fanno Creek project later at this meeting.

6 Feb 2006 Mayors & Chairs Forum
Text of Tigard Mayor Craig Dirksen's Remarks to the Forum
The City of Tigard has seen a huge transition in the past two decades, going from a
small town of just over 14,000 in 1980 to over 45,000 today. This over three-fold
increase has created a profound change in the lifestyle and quality of life in our
community. Tigard has gone from a town of primarily small houses on oversized lots to
a city of many different types of environments. By careful planning and judicious
application of minimum density standards we have striven to preserve our existing,
traditional low-density areas while meeting the 2040 plan's capacity requirements by
the inclusion of higher-density single-family and multi-family areas.
In response to the Metro 2040 plan, in 1977 Tigard established its own visioning
process called "Tigard Beyond Tomorrow". Residents, government professionals,
business people, and community group leaders worked together to create a document
identifying issues, values, and goals to guide the City Council and staff in decisions
and direction. The task force continues to meet each year to review and evaluate
current progress and make recommendations. Annual Council goals are chosen
based on this Visioning Document, and even individual Council agenda summaries
indicate which visioning goal is being addressed.
Over the years the City has implemented several different plans to deal with the
increase in population and the attendant need for more commercial and industrial land.
Tigard has long been blessed with a healthy industrial base along the 1-5 corridor, and
in '90s the city supplemented this area by changing the zoning in what came to be
called the Tigard Triangle from what was once our largest residential area into one of
commercial, professional and light industrial. The continuing development of the
Washington Square Regional Center along with coveted commercial and retail property
along highway 99W has provided Tigard with sufficient economic development to this
point without much attention from local government. One goal for the future will be to
de-emphasize the 99W corridor and focus commercial development in centers rather
than along transportation corridors. To address that and other issues, Tigard is in year
2 of a 3-year comprehensive plan review & revision.
In 2001 the City completed a detailed Transportation System Plan anticipating what
street additions and improvements will be necessary to serve the city when it reaches
its "built out" state. The list of necessary improvements is very large, and the cost far
exceeds any expected contribution by continuing development or by conventional
funding sources. So, though we have identified the problem and can see the solution,
the path to that solution is still unknown. Last year Tigard and the Oregon Department
of Transportation were awarded a Transportation and Growth Management grant to do
a study of the 99W corridor. That study will commence this spring, with the goal of
identifying specific and achievable projects to alleviate the congestion that now exists.
In 2005 Tigard concluded a 3-year planning process by approving a Downtown
Improvement Plan to guide the revitalization and redevelopment of our central
business district. When implemented, this area will provide a semi-urban environment
of mixed use high-density housing, retail and professional development, and public
gathering spaces close to commuter rail and other public transportation which will help
us meet residential density and capacity needs while continuing to protect the small-
town feel of our older areas. The City Council has recently decided to place an Urban
Renewal District on the ballot for this coming May to allow the use of Tax Increment
Financing for funding of public infrastructure in the area.
Despite our best efforts and some success, the rapid growth of the area and the
capacity requirements placed on us by regional land use planning have negatively
impacted the quality of life enjoyed by those of us who have lived here for 20 years or
more. Increased capacity needs without additional land has led to development on
increasingly small lots and on properties with steep slopes and adjacent to riparian
corridors previously considered too difficult to develop. This has led to increased
concern by local officials, to say nothing of our residents, of the impact these more
intense developments have on an ever-more fragile natural environment. This has
also led to rapid loss of precious open space we had formerly taken for granted at a
time not long ago when our city still had cows and horses living among us. At the
same time that land prices have skyrocketed, increasingly limited local budgets plus
regional attention focused elsewhere has prevented the City from being able to
purchase and preserve any significant portion of what little open space is left, leaving
Tigard park deficient, with only about 8 acres of parks and open space per thousand
residents, instead of the minimum 11 acres nationally recognized as the target. This is
a crucial need to the livability of increasingly urban landscapes. People living in closer
quarters need parks and open spaces in their neighborhoods to retain an agreeable
quality of life. Public reaction to all this growth has been predictably negative, with
displeasure with the present and pessimism for the future the near constant refrain at
public meetings. Even more moderate voices express resignation rather that
enthusiasm.
One item that must be addressed is a solution to the problem of long-term provision of
urban services to developed lands inside the urban growth boundary but outside of any
municipal jurisdiction. Today 36% of Washington County residents live in these areas.
The resultant imbalance of services and taxation has created a dichotomy that is,
amongst other things, one of the main underlying reasons for the lack of citizen support
for city and county requests for increased or even continuing funding for those
services. The status quo cannot continue and must be resolved, and soon. The recent
reaction and backlash to Tigard and Beaverton's attempts to meet the goals outlined
by State Senate Bill 122 and Washington County's own County 2000 plan make it
clear that a local solution is currently not possible; but must come from the regional
level, if not the State.
In spite of all this, my community and I support the concept of the urban growth
boundary and the prevention of urban sprawl to preserve rural areas and agricultural
land. But it is my belief that some regional planning goals and guidelines have led to
unforeseen and undesirable results and the entire plan needs to be reviewed and
changed to respond to the resultant reality. It is my hope that the New Look we are
exploring today will be able to successfully address the problems we face.

TIGARD CITY COUNCIL MEETING
JANUARY 6, 2006
Mayor Dirksen called the meeting to order at 12:19 p.m.
Council Present: Mayor Dirksen; Councilors Harding, Sherwood, Wilson, and Woodruff.
2006 Goal-Setting Discussion
City Manager Prosser reviewed materials submitted to the City Council to assist in the goal-
setting discussion. Materials included:
• 2005 City Council Goal Status Summary
• Departmental summaries of accomplishments for the year
• Volunteer report
• The Capital Improvement Program Progress Report for the 2005 Calendar Year
Council members proceeded with a brainstorming session, with each member suggesting
goals for 2006. (Recorder's Note: Attached is the proposed final 2006 City Council Goals
list submitted for Council approval at its January 24, 2006, business meeting.)
Below are highlights of the City Council discussion:
• Revise Comprehensive Plan - complete the draft by the end of the year. Notation
that the Plan is 25 years; identify where it is obsolete.
• Improve relationship and communication with citizens - implement the new
neighborhood program.
• Implement the Downtown Plan - add specifics of what is to be implemented in
2006; identify projects such as a public gathering place in the downtown. The City
Council can support the ballot measure and Council members decided they would
work to get the ballot measure passed and to support the political action committee.
• Improve 99W corridor. Projects in 2006 would include the implementation of the
Transportation Growth Management Study and improvements to the Greenburg
and Hall Boulevard intersections.
• Stabilize the Financial Picture as the City Council receives the Financial Strategy
Task Force report followed by appropriate City Council action. City Council
members also noted the importance of continuing to control costs.
• City Council members considered the potential goal to "address growth on the
western border." After discussion, City Council decided the goal should be stated in
terms for clarification of the City's position on the provision of urban services to
unincorporated areas and to protect the interests of the citizens of Tigard.
• Long-range water decisions will be necessary in 2006.
COUNCIL MINUTES -JANUARY 6, 2006 a page 1
• Build skate park. There was discussion on whether this should be a subsection of a
goal and it was placed under the broader goal of Implementing the Downtown Plan.
• Consider opportunities to make major greenspaces purchases. After discussion,
City Council members decided to add specific activities including purchasing first-
refusal options and to explore property exchanges with the School District.
• City Council discussed long-term water options including the joint Water
Commission, City of Portland, and Lake Oswego.
• Comprehensive Plan Review and Revision. There was discussion about:
o High-tech development in the region - Tigard is in the center of this activity
(i.e., Washington Square, Lincoln Center, Kruse Way).
o Analyze trends.
o Determine where current Code is obsolete. Define economic patterns and
strategies.
o Understand the economic trends and define what kind of City we want to
become.
o City staffing includes one-half FTE for an urban renewal planner and one-
half FTE for economic development.
.o Develop an economic assessment of existing conditions and opportunities
o The Comprehensive Plan sets out a vision for the City - a hierarchy of
purposes.
o Consider design standards.
• Address growth on the western border of the City, which will involve more than the
Comprehensive Plan Review (i.e., intergovernmental agreements, policies, Area
63/64).
• At this time unincorporated Bull Mountain area is not in the Comprehensive Plan
Review.
• There was a suggestion to include up to 150`h Street in the Comprehensive Planning
Review; however, there was a question as to whether the City would have the
authority to include this property. Another suggestion was to keep the area outside
the City limits as a separate issue while the City Council works out some of the
policy issues.
• There was discussion on the original policy for the urban services area noting the
changes in the "political landscape." Original policy clearly states that it was
anticipated that the City boundaries would extend to the current urban growth
boundary. The position on the urban services area needs to be clarified. Discussed
protecting the public's interest.
• There appears to be no mechanism to bring areas 63 and 64 into the City of Tigard.
• Referred to Senate Bill 122 directing cities and counties to address areas within the
urban growth boundary to determine how urban services would be provided; who
would be the ultimate service provider.
• There was a suggestion to do a comprehensive survey to tie together some of the
other smaller surveys.
• There was discussion about the continued improvement of the City's committee
system. It was suggested that sign up sheets provide a space so people can indicate
if they would be interested in serving on a board or committee (develop a resource
file).
COUNCIL MINUTES -JANUARY 6, 2006 page 2
• Utilize the library to get messages out.
• Promote the City's web page.
• Communication is two-way; suggested focus be on those who want to be part of the
communication process. Another comment was the desire to hear from the
"average" person as well as activists.
• Involve the Citizens for Community Involvement and the Neighborhood groups.
• Past surveys included: Library services; Citizens Academy program.
• Make public notices for land use more visible; include a telephone number so more
information could be obtained if desired.
• Progress in communication has included the 5`h Tuesday meetings and the use of the
City's website.
• Suggested that a recognition event be planned for the Neighborhood program.
• Discussed CPO's and the request to the County to restructure this program.
• Discussed City's relationship with schools, with the comment made that the mission
of the City is not. education. Continue to work on two-way communication and
cooperate with the schools where the two jurisdictions' missions overlap.
Meeting recessed at 2:09 p.m.
Meeting reconvened at 2:29 p.m.
• Reviewed the Transportation Growth Management Grant process.
• On March 4 there is a CPO 4B and 4K symposium on 99W. There was a request
for the City of Tigard to attend. More information is needed.
• A request was made for a Police report on activity on Bull Mountain.
• Add the Greenburg Road and Hall Boulevard intersection projects to the 99W goal.
• Reference made to performance audits for major expenditure programs - setting the
budget and "sticking to it."
• Discussion on how capital projects are carried forward from one fiscal year to the
next when projects have not been completed. Suggestion that draft Capital
Improvement Program identify projects not completed, but funded.
• Discussed how the City invests money as required by law.
• Discussed contingency funding for projects. Generally, the City sets aside 10-20
percent as contingency for projects.
• Discussed long-term financial picture. Budget is always balanced; however, a
number of desired programs and projects cannot be done.
• Metro dollars might be available for park/greenway purchases. The Parks and
Recreation Advisory Board is evaluating opportunities and options for
park/greenway purchases.
• Additional discussion on urban services area and whether the City might want to
consider that the boundaries of the City of Tigard are set; however, the other
viewpoint includes concerns by those who do not wasn't to see further use of City
services by people who have not paid for them. There was a suggestion that the
cities of Washington County come together on this issue and present a united
message to the County.
• City Council members agreed that the City map showing only the City boundaries
(not the urban growth boundary) be used as the City of Tigard map.
COUNCIL MINUTES -JANUARY 6, 2006 page 3
• The County adopted the City of Tigard Development Code, in a public process,
when the City and County entered the urban services agreements.
Briefly discussed the requirements for forming a new City. Feasibility study is being
conducted for formation of a new City on Bull Mountain.
Council meeting recessed at 3:30 p.m.
Council meeting reconvened at 4:04 p.m.
• Council members reviewed and selected a final logo design as presented by
Consultant Glen Marcusen.
• Official city font selected: Garamond

PROBLEM STATEMENT: There is a hole in the Tigard Municipal Building Code
(Title 18) which enables any residential homeowner in Tigard to construct a tower or
antenna structure of unlimited height.
REQUESTED ACTION: Amend Title 18 to reinstate height limits and setback
requirements on antenna and tower structures (attached or detached) built on residential
land in Tigard.
DETAILS: Although it is clear that Title 18 of the Tigard Municipal Building Code tries
to preclude the construction of unsightly, oversized, or inappropriate structures in
residential areas, a specific hole in the code allows for any residential homeowner in
Tigard to construct an "attached" tower or antenna of any height.
MUNICIPAL CODE:
Section 18.510.050 of the building code specifies Development Standards for residential
zones. Table 18.510.2 specifies that the Maximum Height requirements for R-1 through
R-7 residential zones range from 30 to 35 ft.
Section 18.510.060 of the building code specifies that "an accessory structure may not
exceed 15 feet in height."
Section 18.730.020.A removes all maximum height requirements from Title 18. It states,
"Projections such as chimneys, spires, domes, elevator shaft housings, towers excluding
TV dish receivers, aerials, flag poles, and other similar objects not used for human
occupancy, are not subject to the building height limitations of this title."
Although Section 18.730.020 removes all height requirements, there are still setback
requirements built into the city code. Section 18.510.060 states that "All freestanding
and detached towers, antennas, wind-generating devices, and TV receiving dishes, except
as otherwise regulated by Wireless Communication Facilities (Chapter 18.798), shall
have setbacks equal to or greater than the height of the proposed structure.
To get around the setback requirements, residents need only "attach" a free standing
tower to the side of the house. This attachment to the house need not be structural and
frequently serves no other purpose then to enable the resident to get around the setback
requirements. Once attached, the tower is then exempt from all height limits and setback
requirements and may be built to unlimited height.
Example radio tower at 14155 SW High Tor Dr: recently placed on residential lot and
towering over the High Tor and Hillshire neighborhoods.

REQUESTED ACTION: Amend Title 18 to restore height limits and setback
requirements on antenna and tower structures (attached or detached) built on residential
land in Tigard. Ways this could be accomplished could include:
• remove Section 18.730.020 which enables residents to build structures of
unlimited height on their residential land.
• amend Section 18.510.060 to remove the words "freestanding and detached".

PREPARED BY: Rob Block DEPT HEAD OK CITY MGR OK
ISSUE BEFORE THE LOCAL CONTRACT REVIEW BOARD
Shall the Local Contract Review Board approve the purchase of a replacement loader/backhoe from The Halton
Company utilizing the State of Oregon contract?
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the Local Contract Review Board approve the purchase of a loader/backhoe from The Halton
Company utilizing the State of Oregon contract.
INFORMATION SUMMARY
This purchase represents a scheduled replacement of the city's 1993 436B CAT loader/backhoe, as identified in the
FY 05/06 budget. The loader/backhoe is an essential vehicle in the city's fleet and will be used on a daily basis. The
loader/backhoe will be equipped with the necessary accessories to allow other divisions use of the machine. The
existing 1993 CAT loader/backhoe will be refurbished and transferred to the streets division where it will replace their
1987 loader/backhoe, which will then be sold as surplus.
The city is eligible to purchase from the State of Oregon contract, thus saving the city the cost and time of preparing a
solicitation for a new loader/backhoe.
OTHER ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED
The LCRB could decide not to approve the purchase of the loader/backhoe.
COUNCIL GOALS AND TIGARD BEYOND TOMORROW VISION STATEMENT
None.
ATTACHMENT LIST
None.
FISCAL NOTES
The cost of the new loader/backhoe is $94,162. The FY 05/06 budget includes $120,000 for this purchase.

LOCAL CONTRACT REVIEW BOARD (LCRB) AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY
ISSUE/AGENDA TITLE Award a Construction Contract for the Information Technology Building
(Niche) Electrical Upgrade and Emergency Generator Power Supply
PREPARED BY: Rob Murchison, P.E. DEPT HEAD OK CITY MGR OK
ISSUE BEFORE THE LOCAL CONTRACT REVIEW BOARD
The LCRB is being asked to review and approve the construction contract for the electrical upgrade and
emergency generator power supply in the City's information technology building, known as the "Niche."
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends awarding the contract to the lowest responsive bidder, Frahler Electric.
INFORMATION SUMMARY
D
The location of this proposed project is 8720 SW Burnham Street. The Niche is currently occupied by the
Information Technology (IT) Department and is in need of an electrical supply upgrade. The building houses
the City of Tigard's main computer server, which is the backbone of the city's computing infrastructure. It
serves all city departments. With recent updates and additional software required by the departments, the
computing capacity of the existing server has become limited. In addition, a previous inspection of the building
demonstrated that a new generator should be installed to provide adequate backup power in the event the city
power grid goes down.
The City of Tigard's Public Works Department retained R & W Engineering to study and provide drawings
and electrical specifications to adequately address the existing server capacity and backup generator supply. This
study, and subsequent design, recommended the current 110 volt supply be upgraded to 220 volt and that a new
generator be installed.
With the design completed, staff issued an invitation to bid. A mandatory pre-bid walkthrough of the facility
was held on January 24, 2006. At that time, contractors were allowed to review plans and specifications,
examine the facility, ask questions, and request clarification from the engineer and city staff. Eight contractors
attended the meeting with five contractors submitting bids. After evaluating all five bids, city staff deemed one
bid as unresponsive because it did not include all the necessary documentation. The following remaining four
bids met all requirements:
Firm Bid
NAES - Power Maint. Resources $84,855.00
3D Electrical Services $74,100.00
Christenson Electric $81,885.50
Frahler Electric $71,353.00
The lowest responsive bid for this project was $71,353 from Frahler Electric. With the approval of the LCRB
on February 14, 2006, construction could begin within two weeks.
OTHER ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED
The LCRB could decide not to award the contract, although this would have a negative impact on city-wide
computer service.

COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY
ISSUE/AGENDA TITLE A Resolution Approving Budget Amendment #9 to the FY 2005-06 Budget to
Increase Appropriations in the Traffic Impact Fee Fund for Funding of Walnut Street Right-of-Way Acquisition
and the Street Maintenance Fee Fund for Funding of Additional Costs Related to the Pavement Major Maintenance
Program.
PREPARED BY: Michelle Wareing DEPT HEAD OK CITY MGR OK
ISSUE BEFORE THE COUNCIL
Shall the City Council approve Budget Amendment # 9 to increase appropriations in the Traffic Impact Fee Fund for
funding of right-of-way acquisition along Walnut Street and in the Street Maintenance Fee Fund for funding of
additional costs in the Pavement Major Maintenance Program (PMMP)?
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval of Budget Amendment # 9.
INFORMATION SUMMARY
The FY 05-06 Budget includes $635,000 in the Street Maintenance Fee Fund for the Pavement Major Maintenance
Program (PMMP). Due to increases in asphaltic concrete materials and extension of the Greenburg Road overlay,
staff has requested an additional $80,500 for this program. This will be funded by a contingency transfer in the
Street Maintenance Fee Fund.
The FY 05-06 Budget does not include any appropriations for acquisition of right-of-way along Walnut Street.
Thirty-three of the thirty-five desired parcels were acquired in FY 04-05. The two remaining property owners were
resistant to selling their portion of the property that was desired by the City for right-of-way. The two property
owners are now willing to sell the necessary land. The cost of the acquisition is estimated to be $50,000. This will
be funded by a contingency transfer in the Traffic Impact Fee Fund.
OTHER ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED
Do not approve Budget Amendment # 9

ISSUE/AGENDA TITLE Intergovernmental Agreement IGA) with Washington County for use of
MSTIP3 Bike and Pedestrian Program Funds on the Washington Square Regional Center Greenbelt Trail
Project cqc -
PREPARED BY: A.P. Duenas h~~`~" DEPT HEAD OK 0100 CITY MGR OK
ISSUE BEFORE THE COUNCIL
Should Council approve the attached IGA (Intergovernmental Agreement) with Washington County for use of
$250,671 in County MSTIP3 Bike/Ped funds on the Washington Square Regional Center Greenbelt Trail Project?
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that Council approve, by motion, the attached IGA authorizing use of MSTIP3 Bike/Ped funds
on the Washington Square Regional Center Greenbelt Trail Project.
INFORMATION SUMMARY
City Council approved Resolution No. 05-45 authorizing use of $250,671 in County MSTIP 3 (Major Streets
Transportation Improvement Program) Bike and Pedestrian Program funds for the Washington Square Regional
Center Greenbelt Trail Project. This amount represents Tigard's allocation of the $2.5 million Bike/Ped funds
approved by the voters as part of MSTIP 3. This IGA between the County and the City authorizes the use of
these funds for the trail project and sets out the obligations for both the County and the City. The IGA also
requires County Board of Commissioners approval and is scheduled for County Board consideration at the
February 21, 2006 meeting of the Board.
The Washington Square Regional Center Greenbelt Trail is part of the off-street system identified in the
Washington Square Regional Center Plan. The Greenbelt Trail project includes design of the off-street trail
from Hall Boulevard west across Highway 217 to connect to the Fanno Creek trail on the west side of the
highway. The project is divided into two phases for right-of-way acquisition and construction. The attached
vicinity map shows the entire trail alignment and identifies the two phases of the project. Phase 1 is the segment
from Hall Boulevard to Highway 217. Phase 2 is the extension of the trail across Highway 217 to connect to the
Fanno Creek Trail near Greenburg Road west of the highway. The scope of the trail project is for design of the
entire alignment between Hall Boulevard and the Fanno Creek Trail, followed by right-of-way acquisition and
construction of the segment (Phase 1) east of Highway 217 between Hall Boulevard and the highway. Because
of project costs associated with crossing of Highway 217 and continuing with the trail segment west of the
highway, Phase 2 of the overall trail project will be addressed at some point in the future.
The MSTIP 3 funding was originally directed towards the Tualatin River Pedestrian Bridge project and the
Washington Square Greenbelt Trail project was originally approved for Federal CMAQ (Congestion
Mitigation-Air Quality) funding. Because of the need for a pre-design phase on the Greenbelt Trail project,
substitution of funds between the two projects was agreed upon among Metro, Washington County and the City.
The use of the local MSTIP 3 funds would allow more flexibility in the design and right-of-way acquisition
leading to construction of the project. The substitution was approved by the Washington County Coordinating
Committee at its meeting on June 6, 2005. Council approval via Resolution No. 05-45 was the final step
required by Metro to make the substitution. Metro has already transferred the Federal funding to the pedestrian
bridge project. The MSTIP 3 Bike/Ped funds are now committed to the Greenbelt Trail project. The budget
amendment for the Pedestrian Bridge scheduled for Council consideration at this same meeting includes the
transferred Federal CMAQ funds ($224,928), the local match for that amount also transferred ($25,743), and
the additional local funds needed because of the cost increases on the project.
The IGA between the County and the City of Tigard authorizes the use of the MSTIP 3 funds for the trail
project and will allow the project to begin the pre-design process leading to design and construction of the
Phase 1 trail segment.
OTHER ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED
The option to leave the Federal funding for the trail project in place and create a pre-design phase to be funded by
Federal funds was initially considered before approval for the funding substitutions was obtained.
VISION TASK FORCE GOAL AND ACTION COMMITTEE STRATEGY
Both the Tualatin River Pedestrian Bridge Project and the Washington Square Regional Center Project meet the
Tigard Beyond Tomorrow goal of Alternative modes of transportation will be available and use shall be
maximized, strategy Encourage development of alternate modes.
ATTACHMENT LIST
1. Intergovernmental Agreement between Washington County and the City for use of MSTIP 3 funds for the
Greenbelt Trail project.
2. Vicinity Map showing the trail alignment and the two project phases.
3. Resolution No. 05-45
FISCAL NOTES
The Washington Square Regional Center Greenbelt Trail project is funded as follows:
MSTIP 3 Bike/Ped funds: $250,671
Local Funding through Parks SDC: $18,419
Metro MTIP Funding - Federal CMAQ funds: $160,950
Total Project Estimated Cost: $430,020
The Tualatin River Pedestrian Bridge Project received an equivalent amount of funding ($250,671) consisting of
$224,928 in Federal CMAQ funds and $25,743 in local City funding (Parks SDC) as the matching funds. The
budget amendment for the pedestrian bridge project includes the $224,928, the $25,743 in local City funding, and
additional Parks SDC needed to meet the City's share of the current project estimate.

CITY OF TIGARD, OREGON
COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY
ISSUE/AGENDA TITLE Resolution to Allocate Funds for Commuter Rail Shelter Upgrade
PREPARED BY: Phil Nachbar DEPT HEAD OK CITY MGR OK
ISSUE BEFORE THE COUNCIL
Should Council adopt a resolution to allocate funds for FY 06-07 to pay for additional costs associated with
selection of the original TriMet Commuter Rail shelter instead of TriMet's revised shelter, plus two additional
foundations to allow for a 24 foot future expansion? It is necessary for Council to allocate funds now to insure
changes can be incorporated into TriMet's design and construction schedule.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Adopt the above resolution.
INFORMATION SUMMARY
On January 17, Staff presented options to Council for a different shelter design for Tigard's Commuter Rail station
in light of TriMet's decision to revise its shelter design as a cost savings measure. Council evaluated options and
chose the shelter which was TriMet's original design, which is more traditional in design, and in accordance with
the Downtown Task Force's design recommendations for the Commuter Rail station.
The change in cost for the original shelter is approximately $85,000 plus $6,000 for two additional foundations for
future expansion of the shelter to an additional 24 feet.
There may be a need for additional furnishings. TriMet includes three (3) benches, two (2) light poles, and two (2)
waste receptacles.
The Commuter Rail Working Group recommended specific features including entry art, an art sculpture, pavement
upgrade, upgrading poles for flower baskets, and a community display. None of these items would be included as a
part of this resolution. Depending on availability of funds, these items can be installed at a later time.
OTHER ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED
None at this time.

COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY
ISSUE/AGENDA TITLE Resolution to express appreciation to Providence Health System for a recent donation
to the Tigard Police Department D.A.R.E. Summer Camp program
PREPARED BY: Jim Wolf DEPT HEAD OK 6/P" CITY MGR OK
ISSUE BEFORE THE COUNCIL
A resolution by the Tigard City Council expressing gratitude and commending Providence Health System for their
community involvement by generously donating $7500 to defray operational costs associated with the Tigard Police
D.A.R.E. Summer Camp program.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council approve the proposed resolution.
INFORMATION SUMMARY
The Tigard Police Department sponsors annual D.A.R.E. Summer Camp programs. The week-long camps are
offered to 4th, 5th and 6th grade students free of charge. The camps offer positive summer activities while
reinforcing the importance of staying drug and violence free. The purpose of the camps is to foster self-esteem,
cooperation and patience. These concepts are introduced while teaching goal-setting and team-building skills.
Escalating operational costs and uncertainty for continued funding create planning challenges. The recent donation
by Providence Health System allows the program coordinator to proceed on firmer ground for planning purposes.
The donation may permit increasing the current five-week program to expand an additional week to allow more
students to participate and benefit from this positive learning experience.

COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY
ISSUE/AGENDA TITLE Finalization of Sanitary Sewer Reimbursement District No. 35 (SW Ash Avenue)
PREPARED BY: -G Berr vDEPT HEAD OK CldZLA~CITY MGR OK
ISSUE BEFORE THE COUNCIL
Finalize Sewer Reimbursement District No. 35, established to construct sanitary sewers in SW Ash Avenue, as part
of the Neighborhood Sewer Extension Program.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Approve the proposed resolution finalizing Reimbursement District No. 35 as modified by the Final City
Engineer's Report.
INFORMATION SUMMARY
Council approved the formation of Reimbursement District No. 35 by Resolution No. 05-51 on August 9, 2005
following an informational hearing. One owner offered testimony during the hearing. The owner explained his
opposition to the formation of the district and submitted a letter from another owner also in opposition to the
district. Since then, construction of the improvements has been completed and final costs have been determined.
The City Engineer's Report has been revised accordingly.
Through the City's Neighborhood Sewer Extension Program, the City has installed public sewers to each lot within
the Reimbursement District. The property owners must reimburse the City for a fair share of the cost of the public
sewer at the time of connection to the sewer. In addition, property owners must pay a connection fee, currently
$2,635, and are responsible for disconnecting the existing septic system according to County rules and any other
plumbing modifications necessary to connect to the public line. The sewer connections are available should
property owners need to connect. Owners will not be required to pay any fee until they connect to the sewer.
Each owner has been notified of the hearing by mail. The notice, mailing list and additional details are included in
the City Engineer's Report attached as Exhibit A to the proposed resolution.
If Council approves this request to finalize the Reimbursement District, owners within the district will be notified
that the sewer is available for connection.

FISCAL NOTES
The final cost of the project, is $121,985.96, 10.7% higher than the engineer's estimate of $110,215. These
amounts include the cost of construction plus an amount for administration and engineering as defined in TMC
13.09.040(1).
Bids submitted by the contractors were higher than the estimated cost. However, the bids appeared reasonable
and the low bid was awarded. The work was completed at a cost of about $2,500 less than the amount of the
contractor's bid. The difference was the result of actual work quantities differing from estimated work
quantities. There were no other changes to the contract.
The portion of the final cost assigned to each owner is tabulated in Exhibit A of the attached proposed
resolution. The cost to each owner under the Incentive Program established by Resolution 01-46 is also shown.
Funding is by unrestricted sanitary sewer funds.

Exhibit A
City Engineer's Report
Sanitary Sewer Reimbursement District No. 35
(SW Ash Avenue)
Background
This project will be constructed and funded under the City of Tigard
Neighborhood Sewer Extension Program (NSEP). Under the program the City of
Tigard would install public sewers to each lot within the project area. At the time
the property owner connects to the sewer, the owner would pay a connection
fee, currently $2,635, and reimburse the City for a fair share of the cost of the
public sewer. There is no requirement to connect to the sewer or pay any fee
until connection is made. In addition, property owners are responsible for
disconnecting their existing septic system according to Washington County rules
and for any other modifications necessary to connect to the public sewer.
Project Area - Zone of Benefit
Serving the nine lots in the following table will require the extension of an existing
sewer in SW Ash Avenue 510 feet south and west. Further extension of the line
could have also provided service to 13700 SW Ash Street. However, this lot
could be directly served by another existing sewer in Ash Street so it is not
proposed to be included in the district. City staff has discussed service options
with the owner.
The proposed project would provide sewer service to a total of nine lots as
shown on Exhibit Map B.
Cost
The estimated cost for the sanitary sewer construction to provide service to the
nine lots is $97,106. Engineering and inspection fees amount to $13,109
(13.5%) as defined in TMC 13.09.040(1). The estimated total project cost is
$110,215. This is the estimated amount that should be reimbursed to the
sanitary sewer fund as properties connect to the sewer and pay their fair share of
the total amount. However, the actual amount that each property owner pays is
subject to the City's incentive program for early connections.
In addition to sharing the cost of the public sewer line, each property owner will
be required to pay a connection and inspection fee, currently $2,635, upon
connection to the public line. All owners will be responsible for all plumbing
costs required for work done on private property.
Exhibit A Page 1 of 4
Reimbursement Rate
All properties are zoned R-4.5 but vary in lot size from about ten thousand to
twenty-seven thousand square feet as can be seen in the following list of lots.
Therefore, it is recommended that the total cost of the project be divided among
the properties proportional to the square footage of each property.
Other reimbursement methods include dividing the cost equally among the
owners or by the length of frontage of each property. These methods are not
recommended because there is no correlation between these methods and the
cost of providing service to each lot or the benefit to each lot.
Each property owner's estimated fair share of the public sewer line is
$0.5590 per square foot of lot served. Each owner's fair share would be
limited to $6,000 to the extent that it does not exceed $15,000, for
connections completed within three years of City Council approval of the
final City Engineer's Report following construction in accordance with
Resolution No. 01-46 (attached). In addition to paying for the first $6,000,
owners will remain responsible for paying all actual costs that exceed
$15,000. Upon request, payment of costs that exceed $15,000 may. be
deferred until the lot is developed, as provided by Resolution No. 03=55:
(attached).
Annual Fee Adiustment
TMC .1.3.09.115 states that an annual percentage rate shall be applied to eabh.
property. owner's fair share of the sewer line costs on the anniversary date of the
reimbursement agreement. The Finance Director has set the annual interest
rate at 6.05% as stated in City of Tigard Resolution No. 98-22.
Recommendation
It is recommended that a reimbursement district be formed with an annual fee
increase as indicated above and that the reimbursement district continue for
fifteen years as provided in the Tigard Municipal Code (TMC) 13.09.110(5).
Fifteen years after the formation of the reimbursement district, properties
connecting to the sewer would no longer be required to pay the reimbursement
fee.

Estimated Construction Cost $84,440
15% contingency (construction) $12,666
Estimated construction subtotal $97,106
13.5% contingency (Admin & Eng) $13,109
total project costs $110,215
total area to be served (S.F.) 197,163
total cost per S.F. to property owner $0.55900513
The "estimated cost to property owner" column shows the estimated reimbursement fee each
owner is required to pay to connect to the sewer. There are no requirements to connect to the
sewer or pay any fees until the owner decides to connect to the sewer. The final reimbursement
fee will be determined once construction is complete and final costs are determined.
The amount each property owner will be required to pay will be limited to $6,000 for connections
completed within three years of City Council approval of the final City Engineer's Report:..
following construction, in accordance with Resolution 01-46. This amount is shown in the "paid
by owner" column. The remaining portion of the reimbursement fee that the owner will not be
required to pay during this three year period is shown in the "paid by city" column.
Please note that this resolution also requires the owner to pay any fair share amounts that
exceed $15,000. Consequently, if the final fair share for an owner exceeds $15,000, the owner
would be required to pay $6,000 plus the amount the fair share exceeds $15,000. Under
Resolution 03-55, payment of the amount in excess of $15,000 may be deferred until the
owner's lot is developed.
The owner would also be required to pay a connection fee; $2,635 following June 30, 2005, at
the time of connection to the sewer. In addition, property owners are responsible for
disconnecting their existing septic system according to Washington County rules and for any
other modifications necessary to connect to the public sewer.
These costs will be explained during the Neighborhood Meeting and there will be an opportunity
to ask questions.

FOR AGENDA OF 2/14/06
CITY OF TIGARD, OREGON
COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY
ISSUE/AGENDA TITLE Affordable Housing Fee Assistance Request
PREPARED BY: Duane Roberts DEPT HEAD OK__7C CITY MGR OK
CA-7
ISSUE BEFORE THE COUNCIL
Should Council award budgeted housing fee assistance funds to an applicant seeking assistance? The applicant is
seeking $2,243 in City assistance.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
After reviewing the completed application and listening to the presentation, Council should act on the request.
Staff has reviewed the application and determined that the request complies with all program guidelines.
INFORMATION SUMMARY
In September 2002, Council adopted the Affordable Housing Program, intended to emphasize and encourage
affordable housing in the Tigard community. The program includes a range of land use and non-land use
affordable housing promotion tools and strategies. One of the non-land use tools is a budget set-aside designed to
offset fees and charges imposed on affordable housing acquistion, development, and rehabilitation. A copy of the
adopted guidelines that define the requirements and conditions for the award of the subsidy funds to housing
providers is attached (Attachment 1).
FY 05-06 is the fourth year of the fee assistance program. According to program guidelines, applications are
accepted twice per year. No applications were received during the first round of the FY 05-06 funding period. One
application was received during the second intake period ending in December 05. This one application is a request
for $2,243 to offset building permit fees on major repairs to a five-person group home located on Hall Boulevard.
The applicant in question is Luke-Dorf, a non-profit community mental health agency located in Tigard since its
founding in 1977. Along with outpatient services, Luke-Dorf provides low-income disabled clients with safe and
affordable housing. The agency's fee assistance request relates to the renovation and expansion of a five-bedroom
house that currently is used as a residence for clients who are participating in a "'Dual Diagnosis" program and
require drug free housing as part of their individual treatment program.
The project meets City quidelines with respect to eligible activities, zoning, tenant income, and time limits. All
residents will have incomes below 50% of median income and will be charged rents based on a sliding scale
established by the State. With regard to guideline #7, the agency recently has applied for enrollment in the City
Enhanced Safety Program, and the Executive Director verbally has agreed to maintain long-term certification.
Guideline #11 states that the maximum amount of program dollars available is $500 per unit. The term unit is
undefined. Although the structure under discussion is a single family five-bedroom house, it will function as a
group living facility for unrelated individuals. This would make the Luke-Dorf facility eligible for up to $2,500 in
City fee assistance. The dollar amount requested is within this allowed maximum.
As indicated in guideline 98 of Attachment 1, an in-person presentation to City Council is required as part of the
application process. Luke-Dorf Executive Director, Howard Spanbock, will be present at the February 14'h
meeting to discuss the organization's request and to answer any questions Council may have.
OTHER ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED
Award fewer or no dollars.
COUNCIL GOALS AND TIGARD BEYOND TOMORROW VISION STATEMENT
Growth and Growth Management Goal #3 calls for the City to encourage and support "private sector programs to
maintain diverse and affordable housing."

AGENDA ITEM # q
FOR AGENDA OF February 14.2006
CITY OF TIGARD, OREGON
COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY
ISSUE/AGENDA TITLE A Resolution Approving Budget Amendment #8 to the FY 2005-06 Budget to
Increase Appropriations in the Parks Capital Improvement budget for Funding of Additional Costs Related to the
Tualatin River Bicycle and Pedestrian Bridge
PREPARED BY: Michelle Wareing DEPT HEAD OK CITY MGR OK
ISSUE BEFORE THE COUNCIL
Shall the City Council approve Budget Amendment # 8 to increase appropriations in the Parks Capital Improvement
budget to fund Tigard's share of increased costs for the Tualatin River Bicycle and Pedestrian Bridge?
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval of Budget Amendment # 8.
INFORMATION SUMMARY
At the January 24, 2006 Council meeting, Council members agreed to continue Tigard's participation in the Tualatin
River Bicycle and Pedestrian Bridge program and to fund Tigard's share of the increased costs related to the project.
This budget amendment appropriates the additional funds needed.
The FY 05-06 Budget includes $250,125 in the Parks Capital Fund to pay for Tigard's share of a pedestrian bridge
that crosses the Tualatin River at Cook Park and links Tigard to Tualatin and Durham. Additional costs have arisen
since the budgeted amount was adopted. The additional costs are due to the bridge structure needing to be longer
than originally envisioned, steel and concrete costs increasing significantly, and design complexity. Tigard's share of
the additional costs is $342,453.
As the contingency of $150,000 in the Parks Capital Fund is insufficient to cover the total additional funding needs,
staff is recommending that a portion of the appropriations from the Washington Square Regional Center Trail that
was budgeted in FY 05-06, but has been postponed until FY 06-07 be used to fund the additional $192,453.
Tigard's total cost of $592,578 will be paid for with Metro Transportation Improvement Program (MTIP) monies in
the amount of $224,928 and Park System Development Charges (SDCs) of $367,650.
OTHER ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED
Do not approve Budget Amendment # 8
COUNCIL GOALS AND TIGARD BEYOND TOMORROW VISION STATEMENT
Council Goal - "Addressing Growth - Acquire and Develop Park Land and Openspace"
Tigard Beyond Tomorrow, Urban and Public Services, Parks and Greenways #2 - "Open space and greenway areas
shall be preserved and protected." Strategy #1- "Acquire and develop park land."

FISCAL NOTES

project.
