ADJOURNMENT Sioc%, Sess. a/Q - A AIS -294 Business Meeting Date: 01/25/2011 Length (in minutes): 10 Minutes Agenda Title: Update on Urban Forestry Code Revisions Project Schedule Submitted By: Todd Prager Community Development Item Type: Update, Discussion, Direct Staff Meeting Type: Council Business Mtg - Study Sess. ISSUE It is proposed to extend the Urban Forestry Code Revisions project timeline by 6 months to allow the Citizen Advisory Committee more time to deliberate and staff more time to develop a well prepared proposal. Staff would like Council to provide direction on the proposed revised timeline. STAFF RECOMMENDATION / ACTION REQUEST Accept staffs proposed revised timeline. KEY FACTS AND INFORMATION SUMMARY On February 16, 2010, Council directed staff to pursue a comprehensive update of the City's urban forestry related code provisions within an approximately 18 -24 month timeframe. Staff developed an aggressive proposal to complete the Urban Forestry Code Revisions (UFCR) project with Council adoption in October 2011. The reason for the aggressive timeline was due in part to community input indicating that the process should move forward as quickly as possible. The UFCR Citizen Advisory Committee (CAC) was appointed by Council on May I I, 2010 to advise staff during the UFCR project. The CAC has been meeting regularly since June 2010 and already addressed the issues of hazard trees, street trees, and the use of the Tree Replacement Fund. They have developed a general level of consensus on these issues and are beginning to address the final set of issues which include urban forestry standards for development, the tree grove preservation program, and tree permit requirements. The final set of issues is more complex and controversial, and the CAC has indicated that they would like more time to deliberate before attempting to develop consensus on the issues. Staff also thinks it would be beneficial to allow more time to develop a well thought out proposal that fully addresses and incorporates input from the CAC and community. Although one of the initial goals was to move the project forward quickly, the CAC and staff agree that it should be balanced with developing a proposal that is broadly supported. Both Council and Planning Commission have also expressed a desire for the issues to be adequately vetted during the CAC process to avoid unnecessary controversy during the adoption process. As a result, staff is proposing to extend the project timeline by six (6) months with Council adoption in April 2012 (see timeline attached). In addition, staff will be proposing to extend the length of the CAC meetings from two (2) to three (3) hours to allow more time for robust discussions for the remainder of their meetings. The revised timeline will meet the CAC's goals of allowing more time for deliberation, and staffs goal of allowing enough time to develop a well thought out proposal that addresses input from the community. The proposed revised timeline also addresses Council and Planning Commission's goal to adequately vet the proposal by allowing ample time for community input in October through December 2011 and an open house prior to the adoption process. Finally, the proposed revised timeline is cognizant of Council's initial direction to complete the project in approximately 18 to 24 months. If the starting point of the project is measured from the appointment of the CAC (May 2010), then staff is proposing to complete the project in 23 months (with Council adoption in April 2012). OTHER ALTERNATIVES Continue according to the existing project schedule or develop an alternative schedule. COUNCIL GOALS, POLICIES, APPROVED MASTER PLANS Council Goal 1.b - Update Tree Code Council Long Range Objective - Tigard citizens are involved in the community and participate effectively. Urban Forestry Master Plan DATES OF PREVIOUS COUNCIL CONSIDERATION February 16, 2010 Fiscal Impact Fiscal Information: Approximately $10,000 dollars will need to be budgeted in FY 2011 -2012 to cover fees for the third party facilitator because of the additional number and length of CAC meetings. The third party facilitator will also be facilitating the community open house prior to the adoption process when the package of code revisions is complete.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION / ACTION REQUEST No action required. KEY FACTS AND INFORMATION SUMMARY During the 2010 - 2011 budget process last spring, the city's Events Coordinator position was eliminated. During the discussions with the Budget Committee, staff advised the members that funding for city events was also discontinued. The 2010 - 201 1 budget was adopted last June without funding for Family Fest or recognition of the city's 50th birthday. In the requested budget for 2011 - 2012, staff will request $5,000 for the city's birthday celebration. That would fund an event the afternoon of Sunday, September I Ith (the City's actual 50th birthday) in the Community Room at the Library. The event would feature music, cake, and remarks by Mayor Dirksen and Curis Tigard. In addition, attendees would have the opportunity to read "Tigard memories" previously submitted by current and former residents or write their own. THe scale of this event could be planned, promoted and coordinated by existing staff. The event would be promoted in Cityscape, on the Neighborhood Network web pages, and local media. OTHER ALTERNATIVES Council could direct staff to develop other options for consideration. COUNCIL GOALS, POLICIES, APPROVED MASTER PLANS N/A DATES OF PREVIOUS COUNCIL CONSIDERATION Council discussed this issue during the Budget Commitee meetings in May 2010. mc- LEENTAL PAC` 1 /.. /cDo :7 • ei City of and �,, tY f Ti g (DATE OF MEETING) 11 G A R D Memorandum To: City Council & Craig Prosser, City Manager From: Toby LaFrance, Finance and Information Service Director FL— CC: Debbie Smith -Wagar Re: Sale of $17 million Parks Bond & $9 million Library Bond Refunding Date: January 25, 2011 This morning we had a successful sale of the $17 million parks bond and the $9 million library bond refunding. The parks bond received nine bids. The bids were awarded based on the lowest Total Interest Cost (TIC). Wells Fargo Bank, NA was the low bid with a TIC of 4.14 %. In the ballot, it was stated that the bond would cost $0.29 per $1,000 of assessed value in the first year of the 20 year bond repayment; equating to $60 in the first year for an average home owner with a median assessed value of $207,000. That was calculated with level annual payments at an estimated 5% interest rate, and the total payments of principal and interest would have been $27,282,480 over the life of the bond. With today's sale, the cost will be $0.275 per $1,000 of assessed value in the first year of the 20 year bond repayment; equating to $56.84 in the first year for the same average home. This is with level annual payments with total payments of principal and interest of $25,861,387. Today's sale represents a savings of $1,421,093 over the information provided in the ballot. The refunding of the library bond received ten bids. The bids were awarded on the same basis. Further, we set 3 percent net present value of savings over the current bond as the minimum level. If none of the bids provided at least the 3 percent savings, all of the bids would have been rejected. Citigroup Global Markets Inc was the low bid with a TIC of 2.91 %. Their bid results in a 7.44% net present value of savings over the current bond. With this award, Tigard property tax payers will save $863,289 over the remaining twelve years of the library bond. When you combine the savings versus the voters' expectations from the ballot and the additional savings we achieved on the existing library bond, Tigard is able save property tax payers $2,284,382 over the next twenty years based on today's bond sale results.

Business Meeting Date: 01/25/2011 Length (in minutes): Consent Item Agenda Title: Change the Name of the Committee for Citizen Involvement to the Neighborhood Involvement Committee and Adopt New Bylaws Prepared For: Joanne Bengtson Submitted By: Joanne Bengtson Administrative Services Item Type: Resolution Meeting Type: Consent Agenda ISSUE Should the Council adopt revised bylaws and a name change from the Committee for Citizen Involvement to the Neighborhood Involvement Committee? Statewide Planning Goal 1 calls for widespread citizen involvement and requires local jurisdictions to maintain a committee for citizen involvement related to land use issues. In November 2010, land use involvement duties were assigned to the Tigard Planning Commission. The city's other boards and committees are modifying their bylaws to include citizen involvement as a program component, allowing the Committee for Citizen Involvment to focus on oversight of the Neighborhood Network Program. At meetings on July 21, September 12 and November 17, 2010, members of the Committee for Citizen Involvement developed revised bylaws and chose a new committee name for Council approval. Members voted to amend the committee name to Neighborhood Involvement Committee to reflect their new mission. STAFF RECOMMENDATION / ACTION REQUEST Adopt the attached Resolution and revised bylaws. KEY FACTS AND INFORMATION SUMMARY Statewide Planning Goal 1 calls for widespread citizen involvement and requires local juridictions to maintain a committee for citizen involvement. In May 2010, staff in Community Development began looking at the type of issues the Committee for Citizen Involvement was handling public involvement for, discovering that few related to land use issues. Subsequent conversations took place with Anne Debbaut, the city's liaison with the Department of Land Use Conservation & Development and it was determined that Statewide Planning Goal 1 requirements could be met by reassigning citizen involvement duties related to land use to the Tigard Planning Commission. Tigard City Council adopted this change on November 23, 2010 under Resolution No. 10 -62. The Committee for Citizen Involvement met in July, September and November 2010 to discuss focusing citizen involvement efforts through the Neighborhood Network Program they developed. With this change, the group adopted a revised set of bylaws and selected a committee name that reflects their mission- the Neighborhood Involvement Committee (NIC). OTHER ALTERNATIVES 1. Adopt revised focus with new committee name and bylaws. 2. Make no changes to committee structure. 3. Disband the committee. COUNCIL GOALS, POLICIES, APPROVED MASTER PLANS Tigard Comprehensive Plan, Statewide Planning Goal 1 DATES OF PREVIOUS COUNCIL CONSIDERATION Council discussed these changes on November 23, 2010 as part of a request to amend the city's citizen involvement structure and appoint the Planning Commission to serve as the committee for citizen involvement.

Business Meeting Date: 01/25/2011 Length (in minutes): Consent Item Agenda Title: Schedule a Public Hearing for Vacation of Right -of -Way on Burnham Street Adjacent to Matsumoto Property Submitted By: Cheryl Caines Community Development Item Type: Resolution Meeting Type: Consent Agenda ISSUE Should the City initiate vacation proceedings and schedule a public hearing to consider vacating 114 square feet of unimproved public right -of -way adjacent to the Matsumoto property located at 8770 SW Burnham Street? The area to be vacated is on the south side of Burnham Street, approximately 200 feet west of the Hall Boulevard intersection. • STAFF RECOMMENDATION / ACTION REQUEST Approve the attached Resolution initiating proceedings to consider vacating a section of right -of -way including a public hearing before Council on March 8, 2011. KEY FACTS AND INFORMATION SUMMARY As part of the Burnham Street project, the street was realigned. A driveway reconfiguration for the Matsumoto property resulted in a 114 square foot portion of unimproved and unused right -of -way. In conversations with the previous City Engineer, the adjacent property owners (William and Nina Matsumoto) have requested that the this portion of the public right -of -way be deeded to them. In the City vacation process there are two ways of initiating the vacation of streets, easements and other public dedicated areas. The City Council may initiate vacation proceedings by passing a Resolution to schedule a formal public hearing to consider such a vacation. The second option is for an applicant to file a petition with the Planning Commission requesting a vacation. This requires signatures of all abutting property owners and of the owners of two - thirds of the properties affected by the vacation. The Planning Commission then makes a recommendation to the City Council based on compliance with the Comprehensive Plan. In this case the City Council is being asked to initiate the vacation proceedings and schedule the required public hearing because the adjacent property owner was impacted by access management associated with the Burnham Street project. This request is coming before the City Council at this time because the agreements with a neighboring property owner for a second, shared access have now been finalized. OTHER ALTERNATIVES The City Council may decide not to initiate the right -of -way vacation proceedings. The property owners (Matsumoto) will then need to file a petition with the Planning Commission to begin the process. COUNCIL GOALS, POLICIES, APPROVED MASTER PLANS This request is not associated with any Council goals, policies, or approved master plans. DATES OF PREVIOUS COUNCIL CONSIDERATION This issue has not previously been considered by City Council. Attachments Burnham Vacation Resolution Burnham Vacation Vicinity Map AIS -145 Item #: 3. E. Business Meeting Date: 01/25/2011 Length (in minutes): Consent Item Agenda Title: Approve Transfer of Hall Blvd. Right -of -Way Located at the Knoll @ Tigard Project to the Oregon Department of Transportation Submitted By: Agustin Duenas Community Development Item Type: Resolution Meeting Type: Consent Agenda ISSUE Shall City Council approve a quitclaim deed to the Oregon Department of Transportation covering approximately 4,608 square feet of right -of -way along the Hall Boulevard frontage of the Knoll at Tigard development project? STAFF RECOMMENDATION / ACTION REQUEST Staff recommends that City Council pass the attached resolution approving the quitclaim deed to the Oregon Department of Transportation for the right -of -way described in the attached documents, and authorize the City Manager to sign the deed. KEY FACTS AND INFORMATION SUMMARY • The land use approval for the Knoll at Tigard, a 48 -unit affordable, senior housing complex located at the northeast corner of the SW Hall Boulevard /SW Hunziker Street intersection, required dedication of right -of -way along SW Hall Boulevard, SW Hunziker Street, and SW Knoll Drive and construction of half-street improvements along those streets. • Because ODOT has jurisdiction over Hall Boulevard, a district highway, transfer of the dedicated right -of -way needs to be made to ODOT. • To ensure timely issuance of permits so that construction could begin on the project, both ODOT and the City agreed to dedication of the necessary frontage along Hall Boulevard to the City, followed by subsequent transfer of that property to ODOT, would be sufficient for issuance of the permits required to begin the project. • The City's standard dedication documents transfer property for use as public right -of -way but does not specifically transfer fee title to the City. • The Knoll at Tigard, LLC, dedicated the Hall Boulevard right -of -way to the City via Dedication Deed recorded with Washington County as Document No. 2010- 028168 dated April 13, 2010. • Because ODOT requires fee title to any property transferred to that agency, the dedication deed is not sufficient to transfer ownership of the dedicated right -of -way to ODOT. • Approval of a quitclaim deed from the City to ODOT followed by execution of a Donation Deed from the property owner transferring fee title to ODOT is acceptable to that agency. • Council is requested to pass the attached resolution approving the quitclaim deed and authorizing the City Manager and City Recorder to sign the deed. • A Donation Deed transferring fee title to ODOT will be executed by the property owner following approval and recordation of the quitclaim deed. • The dedication of the right -of -way to the City was at no cost to the City, and the subsequent transfer to ODOT proposed in this Council action will likewise be at no cost to the City or ODOT. OTHER ALTERNATIVES N/A COUNCIL GOALS, POLICIES, APPROVED MASTER PLANS The current Regional Transportation Plan adopted by Metro requires SW Hall Boulevard between Pacific Highway and Durham Road to be a 5 -lane facility as the ultimate section. The dedication to ODOT would provide the right -of -way needed on the east side of Hall along the Knoll at Tigard frontage to accommodate that ultimate road section. DATES OF PREVIOUS COUNCIL CONSIDERATION There has been no previous Council consideration of this matter Fiscal Impact Fiscal Information: The right of way was originally granted to the City at no cost so this resolution transfers the right of way to ODOT at no cost. Therefore there is no fiscal impact. Attachments Resolution Approving Ouitclaim Deed Exhibit A to Resolution Dedication Deed for Hall ROW AIS -319 Item #: 3. F. 1. Business Meeting Date: 01/25/2011 Length (in minutes): Consent Item Agenda Title: Approve Purchase of a Vactor Truck from Owens Equipment Prepared For: Joseph Barrett Submitted By: Joseph Barrett Financial and Information Services Item Type: Motion Requested Meeting Type: Consent Agenda - LCRB ISSUE Shall the Local Contract Review Board approve the purchase of a new catch basin cleaner truck from Owen Equipment utilizing a Washington State Department of Transportation contract? STAFF RECOMMENDATION / ACTION REQUEST Staff recommends that the Local Contract Review Board approve the purchase of the Vactor 2110 J6 catch basin cleaner truck from Owen Equipment through the State of Washington Department of Transportation contract for the equipment and authorize the City Manager to carry out any steps necessary to execute the purchase. KEY FACTS AND INFORMATION SUMMARY The City is in need of replacing an aging catch basin cleaner truck. This truck is heavily used by the Public Works Department and has a fleet -life expectancy of 10 years. The City's current truck was purchased in 2001 and is entering a stage where maintenance will be costly. In researching replacement options for the truck, staff was made aware of an existing contract that the Washington State Department of Transportation (WADOT) had for same type of truck. In examining the contract from a standpoint of helping with the creation of a City- issued Invitation to Bid, staff discovered that not only were the base specification and available option packages what the City was looking for but also that the City was able to piggyback off the contract through our membership in the Oregon Cooperative Purchasing Program (ORCPP.) Under Oregon Revised Statute (ORS) 279A.220, the City is eligible for an interstate cooperative purchase which is what a purchase under the WADOT contract would be. In purchasing the truck under this type of agreement, the City will save money on staff time, materials, and advertisement typical of running a full Invitation to Bid. The estimated cost of the catch basin cleaning truck, a Vactor 2110 J6, through Owen Equipment, one of the contractors under the WADOT contract, is just over $336,000. Staff recommends that the Local Contract Review approve the purchase of the catch basin cleaner truck from Owen Equipment utilizing the existing WADOT contract. OTHER ALTERNATIVES The Local Contract Review Board could decline this award and direct staff to conduct a City- issued Invitation to Bid for the truck. Such direction would add expenses to the purchase of the truck however via staff time, materials, and advertisements. COUNCIL GOALS, POLICIES, APPROVED MASTER PLANS N/A DATES OF PREVIOUS COUNCIL CONSIDERATION N/A Fiscal Impact Cost: $336,000 Budgeted (yes or no): Yes Where Budgeted (department /program): Public Works - Sanitary Sewer (500- 6600 - 56003) Additional Fiscal Notes: The anticipated cost of the new catch basin cleaner truck is $336,000. This is below the budgeted amount of $350,000 for the purchase in the City's Sanitary Sewer Fund. Attachments No file(s) attached. AIS -305 Item #: 3. F. 2.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION / ACTION REQUEST Staff recommends that the Local Contract Review Board award a contract to Metereaders, LLC for the City's water meter reading needs and authorize the City Manager to carry out all necessary steps to execute the contract. KEY FACTS AND INFORMATION SUMMARY The City currently reads and bills approximately 108,000 water meters annually. These meters were historically broken into 8 groups, each of which was read and billed every two months. These groups range in size from 1,850 -3,000 meters each. The City, as of January 2011, has moved to a monthly billing cycle for all water customers. The City strives to continue to provide the City's residential and commercial customers with accurate bills and cannot do this solely with existing staff. While the City will continue to read approximately one -half of the meters each month with existing staff, contracted assistance is necessary. In mid- November, staff issued a Request for Proposal for water meter reading services. The City received two proposals in response to the Request for Proposal; one from Metereaders. LLC and one from Contract Callers, Inc. Criteria used to evaluate the proposals included the following: • Firm Qualifications (50 %) • Approach to the Project (20 %) • Fee Structure (30 %) After a review of the proposals using the criteria laid out in the Request for Proposal, the RFP's selection team concluded that Metereaders, LLC best meets the City's current needs. OTHER ALTERNATIVES No other alternatives were determined to exist at this time. COUNCIL GOALS, POLICIES, APPROVED MASTER PLANS N/A DATES OF PREVIOUS COUNCIL CONSIDERATION N/A Fiscal Impact Cost: $55,000 Budgeted (yes or no): No Where Budgeted (department /program): 2200 - Utility Billing Additional Fiscal Notes: The budget adjustment will be part of a larger omnibus budget amendment that will be corning to Council later this year with Water Fund revenue as the funding source. The Utility Billing division currently has enough budget authority to begin this contract. This contract has no minimum or maximum; the contractor will read the number of meters that the City asks to be read each week. The contractor is charging 49 cents per meter for regular reads and 59 cents for any meters that we ask them to read with less than 2 weeks advance notice. Attachments No file(s) attached.

Business Meeting Date: 01/25/2011 Length (in minutes): 20 Minutes Agenda Title: Informational Public Hearing to Consider a Resolution Establishing SW 100th Avenue Sanitary Sewer Reimbursement District No. 42 Prepared For: Ted Kyle Submitted By: Ted Kyle Public Works Item Type: Resolution Meeting Type: Council Public Hearing - Informational Business Meeting - Main ISSUE Shall the City Council hold a public hearing and consider a resolution establishing SW 100th Avenue Sanitary Sewer Reimbursement District No. 42? STAFF RECOMMENDATION / ACTION REQUEST Staff recommends the City Council hold the public hearing and adopt the resolution forming the reimbursement district. KEY FACTS AND INFORMATION SUMMARY • Under the Citywide Sanitary Sewer Extension Program, the City installs public sewers to each lot within a reimbursement district. At the time of connecting to the public sewer, the property owner: • Pays a connection and inspection fee, currently $4,135. • Reimburses the City for the owner's share of the sewer installation. • Is responsible for any plumbing modifications to connect to the public sewer. • Is responsible for disconnecting the owner's existing septic system in accordance with Washington County regulations. • On February 10, 2010, staff held a neighborhood meeting with the property owners within the proposed district. The project procedure, construction schedule and estimated costs were discussed. Several owners were concerned about the status of a land use permit for the development of several lots within the proposed district. Recently the status of the development was resolved; no development activity is currently proposed. Another owner requested evaluation of alternative sewer routes. This evaluation was performed; the original route remains the most efficient option. • To update owners and solicit additional input on the reimbursement district, another neighborhood meeting was held on December 16, 2010. Eleven of the 23 owners were represented at the meeting. The written comments from three of the owners are attached. Owners were generally supportive of the project although concerns about future development remained. In a telephone call, one owner said that the sewers were not needed and would promote development that would change the character of the neighborhood. Following the meeting, post cards requesting additional comments were delivered to each house. Seven postcards were returned to the city and are attached. All responses supported the project. • The owners have been notified of the hearing by mail. The notice and mailing list are attached. • If the Council approves the resolution to form the reimbursement district, the City will solicit bids from contractors to construct the public sewer line. • Once sewer line construction is completed and actual costs are determined, the Council will be asked to consider a subsequent resolution to finalize the reimbursement district. OTHER ALTERNATIVES The Council could choose not to establish the reimbursement district, and construction of the public sewer line would likely be abandoned. COUNCIL GOALS, POLICIES, APPROVED MASTER PLANS The proposed Reimbursement District meets Goal No.1, "Implement Comprehensive Plan," by furthering Comprehensive Goal 1 1.3, "Develop and maintain a wastewater collection system that meets the existing and future needs of the community." DATES OF PREVIOUS COUNCIL CONSIDERATION This is the first time the SW 100th Avenue Sanitary Sewer Reimbursement District has come before the Council.

There is no requirement to connect to the sewer or pay any fee until connection is made. Each property owner's estimated fair share is summarized in the attached tables. As discussed at the neighborhood meeting, 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 No. 01 -46. 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 No. 03 -55, payment of the amount in excess of $15,000 may be deferred until the owner's lot is developed. In addition, the owner would be required to pay a connection fee, currently $4,135, at the time of connection to the sewer. Also, 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. h \HNC \I -Active Pm)ec,a\100Ih Ave San Sew neimbuvwma,i Dial 42 IFAS 9,10 2 Key 9304^_ -500 \Formation \Reim 1)i.1 12 lever Notice Ldoc January 7, 2011 NOTICE Informational Hearing NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN THAT THE TIGARD CITY COUNCIL AT A MEETING ON TUESDAY, January 25, 2011 AT 7:30 PM IN THE TOWN HALL OF THE TIGARD CIVIC CENTER 13125 SW HALL BLVD TIGARD OR 97223 WILL CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING: Proposed Sanitary Sewer Reimbursement District No. 42 (SW 100 Avenue) The Tigard City Council will conduct an informational public hearing to hear testimony on the proposed Reimbursement District formed to install sewers in SW 100th Avenue and View Terrace.

WHEREAS, the City Council has initiated the Neighborhood Sewer Extension Program to extend public sewers through Reimbursement Districts in accordance with TMC Chapter 13.09; and WHEREAS, on July 10, 2001, the City Council established the Revised and Enhanced Neighborhood Sewer Reimbursement District Incentive Program through Resolution No. 01 -46 to encourage owners to connect to public sewer within three -years following construction of sewers; and WHEREAS, Council has directed that additional incentives should be made available to encourage owners of large lots to promptly connect to sewers once service is available.

The land use permit shall not be issued until payment of the deferred amount is made. The Annual Fee Adjustment required by TMC Section 13.09.115 shall not apply to payment of this deferred amount. SECTION 2: Lots that qualify under Section 1, within reimbursement districts that have exceeded the three -year period for connection, and have not connected to sewer can connect the existing structure, pay a reimbursement fee of $6,000, and defer payment of the portion of the reimbursement fee that exceeds $15,000 if connection to the sewer is completed within one year after the effective date of this resolution. SECTION 3: Vacant lots improved with a single family home or duplex during the term of the reimbursement district shall qualify for the provisions of Resolution No. 01 -46, pay $6,000 if the fee exceeds that amount, and may defer payment of the portion of the reimbursement fee that exceeds $15,000 as provided by Section 1. SECTION 4: Vacant lots that are partitioned, subdivided, or otherwise developed during the life of the reimbursement district shall qualify for the provisions of Resolution No. 01 -46, shall pay a reimbursement fee of $6,000, and shall pay any amount due over $15,000 at the time of development. The Annual Fee Adjustment required by TMC Section 13.09.115 shall not apply to payments made under this section.

Delay of Reimbursement District for 1 more year (2012) to allow for other pending and potential developments to carry the burden of these RD #42 costs. 2. Construction should start July 1 due to unstable "soft soil" construction conditions which will drive up the costs of RD #42 (which are already excessive when compared to other similar RD #37 and #41. p. u.. 3. Consideration of all comments submitted previously and within city council Z 0 testimony. ,, r. 4. The current design and construction documents are not comprehensively accurate nor completed yet. Q. f D , 5. Prejudicial and /or Discriminatory Application within Reimbursement CO o� Districts: It is commendable when elected City Council Members and their Mayoral representatives are A not considered prejudicial or discriminatory. But the current city Reimbursement District application to properties appears to be that way, and needs to be revisited by our council for correction. My point is that the City can assess properties for sanitary sewer services on a "square foot basis of property ", and then apply City offset credits also on a "square foot basis of property." It can also assess property on a "per lot basis ", and apply City offset credits also on a "per lot basis." But to mix -n -match these assessments and credits is a form of discrimination and prejudice. And, unfortunately, that is exactly how our current reimbursement districts assessments are being presented (please reference attached "Exhibit A "). And by allowing properties to be assessed on a per square foot basis, but applying the City funded offset on a per lot basis, some properties are being subsidized at only a 15 -17 percent participation by the City, while others are being subsidized at a 60 -70 percent participation by the City. This is not only prejudicial, discriminatory, and unfair, but it also 'lust plain wrong! Additionally, when a larger parcel is split into multiple parcels prior to a reimbursement district being formed, the application of the "lump sum" City offset credit is unnecessarily benefiting those parcels at the expense of other neighboring parcels. The use of the per - square -foot application of the City offset credit would not benefit any one parcel over another and therefore would maintain equity among differing size parcels regardless of their contiguous ownership or otherwise. It is therefore requested that the City Council reconsider the method that is used to apply City Reimbursement District offset credits, and modify the application of them to be equitably shared among all properties so as to not be prejudicial and discriminatorily applied as is currently the case. 6. Unnecessary Depths of Sewers in the City Right - of - Way (ROW): Depths of Sewers are only required to "accommodate" property line access by dwellings. How those dwellings are positioned on the property, and raised or lowered by their builder /owner is not a requirement to be accommodated by the city or subsidized by other property owners within a particular Reimbursement District. If an Owner chooses to position Reimbursement District #42 Testimony [ 1/25/2011 a dwelling and create a daylight basement, that is their choice, however if that dwelling then requires a pump station to transfer their sewage to the city street, that too is the Owner's choice. Be it a new dwelling or an older dwelling, this is a consideration owners and potential buyers must consider prior to building or purchasing the property and its structure(s). It is not the neighborhoods' responsibility to accommodate a minority of properties poor choices of building options. 7. Untimely Timing of Reimbursement District assessments, hook -ups, and septic decommissioning: We are currently, and have been for some time, in a national and local recession. For those who may not be aware of that, it's in all the economic indicators, and is evidenced by recent significant Federal Reserve cuts in the prime lending rate. This is a time of uncertainty, and a good time for citizens to be cautions with their available savings, investments, and employment outlook. This is not a time for the City to be requesting or mandating significant sums of personal resources to be spent by its citizens on unnecessary expenses that could easily be deferred a year or two until the economic outlook has improved. This is the case with current Reimbursement Districts, such as RD #42. For the area being considered for this Reimbursement District, there are no current "struggling" septic systems. There is however, numerous developments that could easily defray the costs of this reimbursement district to its residents being affected by the RTD costs. With a number of residents being retired and on fixed incomes, and with the average cost to connect and pay the assessment running between $12K and $14K, the instigation of RD #42 just doesn't have any common sense. An additional, one or two years to let these developments occur can mean significant savings to those who can least afford it currently. 1 100TH AVENUE Reimbursement District No. 42 Estimated Cost to Property Owners January 4, 2011 ESTIMATED ESTIMATED AMOUNT AMOUNT THAT OWNER SITE ADDRESS TAX LOT ID AREA (S.F.)

The final fee to be paid by each property owner will be determined once the construction is complete and final costs are recalculated to reflect actual project costs. The final fee will be specified in the City Engineer's report, which will be submitted to City Council for approval upon completion of the construction. The amount that each owner will be required to pay is limited to $6,000.00 for connections completed within three years of City Council approval of the final cost. In addition to $6,000, owners will also be required to pay any fair share amounts that exceed $15,000.00. The reimbursement fee of $9,000.00 (the difference between $15,000.00 and $6,000.00) would be paid by the City if connections are made within the first three -year (the fee is shown in the "Amount to be paid by the City" column). Consequently, the total estimated amount responsible by each property owner is shown - under the "Estimated Amount to be paid by Owner" column. However, payment of the amount in excess of $15,000.00 may be deferred until the owner's lot is developed. Owners will also be required to pay a connection fee, currently 52,835.00, at the time of connection to the public sewer. In addition, owners are responsible for disconnecting their existing septic systems according to Washington County rules and for any other modifications necessary to connect to the public sewer. Owners are not required to pay any fees until they decide to connect. N Ref: Resolutions 01 -46 and 03 -55 1 PAGE 3 OF 4 1 I / k1.I 5 w ccA, /Lob C OM-rip ( crv, - - . °� i .� a AIS -261 Item #: 5. Business Meeting Date: 01/25/2011 l Length (in minutes): 15 Minutes Agenda Title: Consider Amending Tigard Municipal Code Chapter 12, Water and Sewers Prepared For: Greer Gaston Submitted By: John Goodrich Public Works Item Type: Ordinance Meeting Type: Council Business Meeting - Main ISSUE Shall the Council adopt an ordinance to update Tigard Municipal Code Chapter 12, Water and Sewers? STAFF RECOMMENDATION / ACTION REQUEST Staff recommends the Council adopt the ordinance. KEY FACTS AND INFORMATION SUMMARY The City of Tigard Municipal Code Chapter 12, Water and Sewers, is outdated. Much of this chapter was inherited from the Tigard Water District in the early 1990s. Staff has reviewed the entire chapter and is proposing changes: 1. Chapter 12.01, Utility Services Rule and Regulations - This new chapter addresses definitions, authority, agreements, responsibilities and establishes a framework for the development of administrative rules. 2. Chapter 12.03, Billing and Collection of Utility Charges - The revised chapter addresses rates, charges, fees, penalties and collections. The majority of this chapter has been removed from the municipal code. The information contained in the chapter was updated and incorporated into administrative rules. 3. Chapter 12.10, Water System Rules and Regulations - The revised chapter addresses rules and regulations as they apply to water utility policies. Some sections of this chapter have been removed from the municipal code. The information from these sections was updated and incorporated into administrative rules. Outdated, inconsistent or non- applicable sections were deleted. Much of the overall focus of the proposed amendments is to remove day -to -day business practices from the municipal code. Business practices are instead incorporated into administrative rules. While these rules implement City regulations, Council policies and exiting practices, they are designed to be more accessible and "user- friendly" than the municipal code. In short, the creation of administrative rules will improve the City's ability to communicate basic utility practices to its customers and the general public. Additionally the code amendments establish a procedure to update the administrative rules. The procedure includes a public review and appeal process. Many of the proposed code amendments and administrative rules were initiated at the request of the Intergovernmental Water Board. The Board provided input regarding water - related business practices. This input was incorporated into the administrative rules. The Board is supportive of the code amendments and the shift to administrative rules. The code amendments and the administrative rules were reviewed by the City Attorney. OTHER ALTERNATIVES The Council could choose to not adopt the municipal code amendments. The existing municipal code would remain in effect. COUNCIL GOALS, POLICIES, APPROVED MASTER PLANS This action supports Council Goal #4 - Advance Methods of Communication a. External: Develop communication strategy and methods in support of City goals. b. Internal: Support staff efforts to change the organizational culture to create a proactive environment of exceptional people and service, promoting the values of "respect and care," "get it done," and "do the right thing" (Strategic Clarity). The amendments to Chapter 12 and the use of more accessible and "user- friendly" administrative rules will improve the City's ability to communicate basic utility practices to its customers and the general public. DATES OF PREVIOUS COUNCIL CONSIDERATION The Council reviewed and discussed these code amendments and administrative rules at its October 19, 2010 workshop meeting. Fiscal Impact Fiscal Information: There is no fiscal impact associated with the adoption of the proposed municipal code amendments.

Principles represents a milestone in the national movement to create more livable, sustainable communities for all. These 81 sustainability goals and 10 guiding PARTNER— $250,000 & above principles collectively define community-scale sustainability, and present a vision of Esri how communities can become more healthy, inclusive, and prosperous across eight The Kresge Foundation specific categories. The Goals provide a much needed vocabulary that local The Summit Foundation governments and their communities can use to more effectively strategize and define their sustainability planning efforts. Surdna Foundation PLATINUM — $100,000 The Goals and Guiding Principles also form the foundation of the forthcoming The Home Depot Foundation STAR Community Index, a national framework and performance - management system that will finally allow local governments to measure and rate their The Kendeda Fund sustainability performance. U.S. Green Building Council GOLD— $75,000 Why Communities Need Defined Goals —and STAR The Johnson Foundation Tumer Foundation For too long, community sustainability has been a nebulous concept with competing definitions and frameworks. There has never been a national standard SILVER — $50,000 by which to measure sustainability performance (e.g., economic prosperity, health The Bullitt Foundation and safety, climate protection, etc.) at the municipal or county scale. Establishing City of Seattle, WA these Goals and Guiding Principles is the first giant step toward addressing this National Building Museum critical need, and giving local governments the tools to accelerate their efforts and achieve greater success. This milestone is the product of thousands of volunteer BRONZE — $25,000 hours, and the engagement of more than 160 sustainability experts and stakeholders Argosy Foundation from broad disciplines using a collaborative and consensus -based process, drawn American Institute of Architects from government, the nonprofit and private sectors, and academia. City of Chicago, IL City of Dallas, TX How to Use the Goals City of Portland, OR The STAR Sustainability Goals and Guiding Principles are an invaluable resource National League of Cities for local governments and community stakeholders working to create or revise a Robert & Patricia Switzer FDN sustainability plan, and can help focus ongoing sustainability initiatives. Using the Siemens Sustainability Goals as a framework in combination with ICLEI's Five Milestones U.S. Department of Energy for Sustainability, they can more readily conduct a sustainability assessment and U.S. Environmental Protection establish sustainability goals to integrate into their plan. ICLEI is developing a Agency guidance document to assist these efforts. In the meantime, by aligning local priorities with STAR'S framework now, communities will be primed to utilize the Waste Management, Inc. full STAR performance management system when it is released in early 2012.

STAR Background and Development Mission About ICLEI -Local Governments for Sustainability USA Inc. The mission of ICLEI USA is ICLEI USA is a membership association of local governments committed to to build, serve, and drive a advancing climate protection and sustainable development. For 20 years, ICLEI movement of local j has pioneered the agenda, practices, and technical tools for local climate action and governments to advance urban sustainability, both in the United States and worldwide. ICLEI's deep reductions in membership in the United States is more than 600 strong representing nearly 30 greenhouse gas emissions, percent of the U.S. population, up 25 percent from 2008. Local governments execute clean energy , continue to join ICLEI because they realize the value of membership and the solutions, and achieve imperative of their climate and sustainability efforts. Internationally, ICLEI Global tangible improvements in serves as the focal point for local governments and was the second largest NGO at local sustainability. the 2009 United Nations Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen, Denmark. ICLEI has consistently been at the forefront of enabling local governments to institute sustainable practices —from its work on climate in the 1990s to the current commitment to the STAR system. The time is now to fundamentally i change the way that local governments and the communities they represent manage energy, reduce greenhouse gas emissions and advance sustainability. At ICLEI USA, we have found that educational and policy programs are not enough. Networks and best practices are not enough. Software tools and consulting are not enough. Transformation requires a carefully coordinated, linked up system of political education, professional training and networking, technical support and civic education, and constant performance evaluation and feedback with each local government member over an extended time period. ICLEI has always focused on building that `system.' STAR is designed to leverage each element of the system, and through our network of regional offices we are scaling up capacity to deliver and, together with our members, institute change as a matter of public interest.

STAR takes an integrated approach, addressing the three intertwining facets of sustainability— economy, environment and society. STAR will meet the immediate need to provide a standard framework of sustainability goals and validation measures —from recycling rates and reduce greenhouse gas emissions to education quality and public safety. With clear, consistent, and easily accessible performance measures, cities, towns and counties will be able to more easily track their performance over time. STAR's ambitious vision is primed for success thanks to the unprecedented collaboration involved in its creation. ICLEI USA is developing STAR with a "Built by and for number of key partners including the U.S. Green Building Council, the Center for � local governments, American Progress, and the National League of Cities.

Sustainability issues are organized into the broad categories of environment, economy and society and across eight specific disciplines. A holistic approach has resulted in an integrated set of sustainability goals that are both individually relevant and collectively representative of a community's overall sustainability performance. This document provides an overview of the process and program structure, and makes public the Guiding Principles and 81 Sustainability Goals developed by committees and approved by the Steering Committee. Together, these elements comprise the framework on which performance measures will be developed. We invite you to explore the list of Sustainability Goals to experience the breadth and integration represented by the STAR system. For more background and context on STAR, visit vww.icleiusa.org/star. A National Framework to Drive Concerted Action Across the U.S., there is a pressing need for a national standard to guide local sustainability initiatives. A 2009 Living Cities survey found that four in five of the 40 largest U.S. cities consider sustainability among their top five priorities. Approximately one -half are either currently creating sustainability plans or have finished one within the past year, and another one - quarter have plans completed. ICT.EI USA's research indicates that these sustainability planning efforts are highly variable. Sustainability plans often adopt different measures of success and divergent approaches to integrate social, environmental and economic factors. The lack of consistency makes it difficult to compare progress across jurisdictions, identify collaborative opportunities, and share lessons learned. These differences G4•., •! are further magnified by the fact that there are no standard definitions for commonly used sustainability terms. A national framework with a robust supporting structure such as an online commons, establish a common language and facilitate the dissemination of knowledge. STAR will allow Buffalo, for example, to learn and measure itself vis-a- vis Portland's experience. Common definitions, coupled with a standard process by which to measure and verify performance, will provide greater certainty. This new level of standardization and integrity in a rating system will give local governments more confidence in their investment decisions. And more taxpayer dollars can go directly to the assessment and implementation of programs— instead of designing a sustainability effort from the bottom up. In turn, as local governments learn from each other and implement innovative policies and practices they will benefit from improved performance in greenhouse gas emission reductions, environmental protection, new jobs, more robust local commerce, and healthier communities. Governance and Development Process For every successful standard, framework, or certification, there are scores of examples that have simply not achieved significant market penetration. Reasons for this are many, but the level of stakeholder involvement in a framework's development appears to have lasting impacts on the public perception of the framework's objectiveness and, ultimately, its uptake in the marketplace. In much the same way LEEDTM is transforming the building industry, STAR uses a consensus -based approach to establish a comprehensive system for cities, towns and counties. Governance is also an important factor contributing to credibility, with a clear decision - making process the most important factor. In fact, ISEAL, International Social and Environmental Accreditation and Labeling, conducted a survey to identify the key factors that contribute to the credibility of social and environmental standards. The most important factors related to the process of development include: • Fair representation from key interest groups in the development process. • Independent, third -party verification of performance. • Clear description of the development process and decision - making process. • Clear social and environmental objectives. • Demanding "minimum level of performance." The STAR governance structure features three primary decision - making entities: ICLEI USA Board of Directors, STAR Steering Committee, and STAR Technical Advisory Committees. However, prior to completing the STAR Community Index all major stakeholders will have an opportunity to provide comments. In keeping with the objectives and character of the STAR Community Index, the decision - making process used by committees is collaborative and democratic. This approach helps ensure that the outcomes of the effort are widely supported and represent a broad range of interests, ideas and knowledge. Page . The ICLEI USA Board of Directors is a body of local leaders from across the country, including mayors and county executives representing each region, as well as global representatives. The Board of Directors will approve the STAR Pilot Version prior to its official release and launch of the STAR Pilot Program. The Steering Committee serves as the governing body responsible for defining the system's scope and structure, guiding development. It is comprised of 40 executives from a diverse group of cities and counties, federal agencies, national associations, and non -profit organizations. Two - thirds of the members are local governments, representing a diversity in size, region, and progress toward sustainability. The Steering Committee elected an Executive Committee to facilitate decision - making and act on its behalf between meetings. The Steering Committee approves the content —the goals and measures that comprise the STAR framework. Eight Technical Advisory Committees are charged with developing the sustainability goals and validation measures that define community -scale sustainability and comprise the STAR framework. Nearly 120 volunteers serve on these committees and are drawn from a spectrum of expertise and organizations that represent local governments, state and federal agencies, universities, non - profit organizations, and private corporations. Through a collaborative and cross - disciplinary process, these committees recommend content for approvaL Volunteers were selected with the aim to create a balance among a variety of perspectives which is imperative to address the breadth of issues under the purview of each committee. Experts in areas as diverse as urban forestry to workforce development have collectively devoted many thousands of hours to identify the constituent elements of community scale sustainability and develop language describing the purpose (outcome) of each element. For a list of current and past Executive Committee, Steering Committee and Technical Advisory Committee members, see Acknowledgements on page 21.

To Scope encourage broader I ■ A validation measure may be applicable to either the local government itself or participation, set the to the community at large, i.e. covering issues that jurisdictions are directly barrier to entry low. responsible for such as municipal operations and services, or extending to a broader set of issues that jurisdictions have influence over such as economic development, watershed protection and community health. • The initial level of achievement in STAR may be possible through local government activities alone; however, achieving the highest levels in STAR will require collaboration with other stakeholders. • STAR will evolve and improve over time. Structure • STAR is a rating system. It is not intended to be a ranking system, but rather a tool for cities, towns and counties to evaluate their own progress against a series of standardized performance and best practice benchmarks. i • STAR is a menu -based system. The flexibility of a menu -based system will allow local governments to select the goals they feel are most important and relevant for their communities. (As a menu -based system, ratings will be awarded on a percentage of points achieved.) • Some menu options are required as prerequisites within STAR categories. • STAR will contain both relative and absolute validation measures. Applicant and Designation • The lead applicant for STAR designation is a local government, or a city, town or county. • Applicants will be required to re- certify over time to maintain their STAR designation. • STAR will have a specific number of achievement levels, with a clear mechanism for determining an applicant's achievement leveL STAR Pilot Version • The pilot version, planned for release in early 2012, will serve as an important opportunity to beta test the system, gather feedback and incorporate changes. • The pilot version of STAR will feature validation measures — performance Fage metrics or outcome -based practices that can be independently verified as proxies of government or community- performance. Validation measures will strive to include performance metrics if possible. Practices measures may be identified if no quantifiable metrics exist for a goal area. Framework Terminology The STAR framework and terminology is easily understood by policy makers. The structure features a set of components that reflect public sector mechanisms that are proven effective in advancing change. The terms are commonly used by local governments and communicate both the strategic objectives and desired outcomes. The structure also allows for incorporation of a variety of types of measures —from qualitative or quantitative to prescriptive or performance -based to relative or absolute metrics —to reflect the breadth of issues covered and leverage the leading research and professional practice for each goal area. Term Definition Goal Title of desired outcome that a jurisdiction intends to achieve. Purpose Statement to clarify relevance, provide context and communicate the desired outcome. Validation Performance Measure: Verifiable indicator or metric, qualitative Measure or quantitative, representing the actual state of a system and used to identify progress relative to Goal. OR, Practice Measure: Actions, practices or systematic approach proven to be efficient and effective toward achieving Goal. Criteria for Validation Measures On May 1, 2010 ICLEI USA began working with Technical Advisory Committees to create validation measures for each STAR Sustainability Goal. Criteria were built around a series of Operating Assumptions to normalize and streamline measures development. The committee developed criteria for selecting measures and developed guidance for utilizing the measures typologies (Performance and Practice) listed in the table above. The following criteria are adapted from "Indicators and Information Systems for Sustainable Development: A Report to the Balaton Group" by Donella Meadows, 1998. • Relevant: Provide direct feedback on the outcomes of actions. • Feasible: Leverage use of credible, commonly collected data for cost effective performance reporting that is flexible enough to be implemented in various local contexts. • Timely: Capture actions and outcomes that are currently relevant, while looking forward to the future. • Useful: Provide significant value to help cities and counties make decisions and address local priorities. page 7 • Systemic: Draw attention to the preferred future, while offering a metric that measures true progress toward that achievement goal; and, where possible, will satisfy performance reporting for multiple goals to highlight the integrated nature of sustainability. • Reliable: Provide a consistent reflection of achievement or performance across communities regardless of community characteristics, facilitating comparisons between communities. • Valid: Represent the concepts and underlying phenomena that are embodied in the Goal area accurately. Get Started with STAR and The Five Milestones for Sustainability To develop and implement a comprehensive sustainability plan, ICLEI USA guides its members through the Five Milestones for Sustain ability, a performance- based methodology for improving community health, vitality and prosperity through intelligent, region appropriate strategies. The methodology underlying the Five Milestones provides a simple, standardized means to enable a community to effectively advance sustainability goals and report measurable achievements. ICT.F.T USA has unparalleled experience engaging and guiding all forms of local governments, including counties, cities, towns, villages, and boroughs, on taking significant action to quantify and reduce their greenhouse gas emissions through its proven Five Milestone for Climate Protection. The Five Milestones represent a unique and powerful approach because each step builds on the last and local governments can learn and adjust as they go. At Milestone Two, 155 ICLEI USA members have set formal emissions reduction targets, committing to a projected reduction of more than 1,360,000,000 metric tons of CO2e by 2020.

In parallel to researching the challenges in Milestone One, a local government can begin to develop their own set of sustainability goals based on local priorities and conditions. Taken together, these goals can define a captivating vision for the future of the locality. Beginning in 2011, STAR will offer performance measures for each STAR goal area. By aligning local sustainability goals with the STAR framework, a local government will be position to become an early adopter of these performance targets. And early adopters can begin to share best practices and their lessons learned through ICLEI's network to drive concerted action. Next Steps Measures for each STAR Goal area are being developed through 2011, using a process that balances focus on a particular Goal area with the need to recognize the interconnectedness and interdependencies between Goals. ICLEI USA will release measures in phases as they are completed to allow local governments to begin to integrate these measures in their sustainability plans and set realistic short and long- term performance targets for their communities. Weaving humankind In early 2012, the pilot version of the STAR Rating System will be released with an Into hardscrabble places online tool that will allow STAR to be more fully utilized as a sustainability Towards renaissance planning and performance management system.

Guiding Principles and Sustainability Goals The content of this document — representing the STAR structure, Guiding Principles, and comprehensive set of Sustainability Goals is the culmination of unprecedented efforts and collaboration of dedicated volunteers, staff members and others. ICLEI USA invites the reader to join us in celebrating the efforts of so many through the release of these foundation elements of a larger system still under creation. Guiding Principles The adjacent page shares the STAR Guiding Principles approved by the Steering Committee to ensure the performance measures embodied by STAR are holistic and representative of the three pillars of sustainability— environment, economy and equity. Guiding principles also make manifest the concepts and values that underpin STAR and local government -scale sustainability. These principles will provide guidance to the Technical Advisory Committees in the development of validation measures that will accompany each Goal area. Sustainability Goals In the following pages, ICLEI USA also presents the 81 Sustainability Goals as of October 2010. Each goal is combined with a Purpose statement that express the desired outcome or aspiration of what localities will strive toward The Sustainability Goals collectively represent a definition of community-scale sustainability. Individually, any one goal becomes an organizing mode for the performance and practice measures that make STAR into a rating system. Changes to language, structural modifications, and the addition, change or deletion of specific elements are all likely as development continues. In fact, the Steering Committee approved the Sustainability Goals with comments, which were submitted to the Technical Advisory Committees for future consideration. The comments ranged from moving a goal to a different category to changing the language to better reflect what is and is not under the direct control of a local government. The current focus of STAR development efforts is on creating measures associated with the goals listed within this document. These measures set performance levels and allow for evaluation and verification. It is assumed that measures development will further inform refining and evolution of the Sustainability Goals and Purpose Statements within this system. We welcome comments, suggestions and questions about these sustainability goals and the STAR development process. Please email starcommunity@iclei.org. Guiding Principles Sustainable communities take a systems perspective and recognize that people, Think —and act— nature and the economy are all affected by their actions. Local governments in systemically. these communities consider the broader implications before embarking on specific projects, and they look for ways to accomplish multiple goals rather than default to short -term, piecemeal efforts.

They have also provided input on development - related tree requirements. The UFCR Public Involvement Plan continues to be implemented with regular updates to the project website, interested parties and briefings to Planning Commission and Council. The required tree grove inventory is complete. This sets the stage for developing language for the incentive -based tree grove preservation program. c.

The PRAB presented a Park Property Acquisition and Improvement Program Charter. The PRAB has further defined the criteria laid out in the bond for property purchases.

External: Develop communication strategy and methods in support of city goals. The 99W HCT Corridor Land Use Study is underway, with staff conducting stakeholder interviews and employing new methods of communication for outreach. Council appointed the Transportation Advisory Committee in December to serve as the Citizens Advisory Committee (CAC) for this project. The first HCT CAC meeting will be held in January. The Urban Forestry Code Revisions project is in full swing with public input, online materials and a system for receiving comments through email, mail, or the web site as well as Cityscape and a new code revisions newsletter. A successful open house to kick -off the Tree Grove Preservation Program was held.

Council Goal Update 2 AIS -345 Item #: 9. Business Meeting Date: 01/25/2011 Length (in minutes): 10 Minutes Agenda Title: Consider Resolution Urging the City of Portland to Rejoin the Portland Joint Terrorism Task Force Prepared For: Al Orr, Police Chief Submitted By: Cathy Wheatley Administration Item Type: Resolution Meeting Type: Council Business Meeting - Main ISSUE The Tigard City Council will consider a resolution urging the City of Portland to rejoin the Joint Terrorism Task Force. STAFF RECOMMENDATION / ACTION REQUEST Adopt the proposed resolution. KEY FACTS AND INFORMATION SUMMARY • In light of the recent alleged attempted bombing of the Tree Bombing Ceremony at Pioneer Square, the City of Portland is reconsidering its 2005 decision to withdraw from the Joint Terrorism Task Force. • The City of Tigard is part of the Portland metropolitan area and recognizes that crime does not respect political boundaries and the fight against crime requires cooperation among all of our police forces. • Terrorism, in particular, because of its political nature, requires close cooperation between local police forces and national and international intelligence agencies. • Large public gatherings are likely targets and a successful terrorist attack has the potential to cause harm to persons who reside outside the political boundaries of Portland; the cities that surround Portland are impacted by decisions made by the Portland City Council. • The City of Tigard acknowledges the legitimate concerns of the City of Portland to protect the civil rights of citizens; however, the risk of potential violence perpetrated by terrorists in our area are sufficient to merit the City of Portland's renewed participation in the Joint Terrorism Task Force. • The City of Tigard has limited resources, which prevent participation in this task force and the city relies on participation by other local law enforcement agencies to provide timely and critical investigations of acts of terrorism within the Portland metropolitan area.
