Workshop Meeting Date: 05/17/2011 Length (in minutes): 20 Minutes Agenda Title: Annual Meeting with Neighborhood Involvement Committee Prepared For: Joanne Bengtson Submitted By: Joanne Bengtson City Management Item Type: Update, Discussion, Direct Staff Meeting Type: Council Workshop Mtg. ISSUE The annual meeting with Council allows Neighborhood Involvement Committee members to exchange ideas with (and update) Council on the status of the Neighborhood Network Program and the new focus for the Neighborhood Involvement Committee. STAFF RECOMMENDATION / ACTION REQUEST Provide NIC members with input on the Neighborhood Involvement Program. KEY FACTS AND INFORMATION SUMMARY Since 1973, Oregon has maintained a strong statewide program for land use planning that employs 19 Statewide Planning Goals. Statewide Planning Goal I (Citizen Involvement) requires Tigard maintain a citizen involvement program that ensures residents have an opportunity to be actively involved in the land use process. The statewide goals are achieved through local comprehensive planning. For many years, the Tigard City Council has placed citizen involvement and two -way communication with residents near or at the top of their priority list. It is equally important in our Comprehensive Plan. Over time, Tigard's Committee for Citizen Involvement found themselves spending a significant amount of time dedicated to issues outside of land use. In 2010, Community Development and City Administration began a reorganization of citizen involvement responsibilities. Land Use citizen involvement activity transitioned to the Planning Commission (Resolution No.10 -62) as the city's land use authority, and the bylaws and charge statements of other boards, commissions and committees were modified to specifically require citizen involvement as part of their responsibilities. In meetings with the Committee for Citizen Involvement (CCI), there was a shift toward focusing on oversight and development of the Neighborhood Network program. In November 2011, the membership of the CCI approved a name change to the Neighborhood Involvement Committee (NIC) to reflect their new purpose. Revised bylaws (superseding bylaws and membership criteria noted in Resolution Nos.05 -04, 07 -61 and 07 -69) and Resolution No. 11 -02 followed, approved by City Council at their January 25, 2011 meeting. The review and refinement of the Neighborhood Network Program is underway by NIC members. The following are general program areas which are or have been addressed by the committee: • Membership and appointment to steering committees • NIC and steering committee membership representation • New staff liaison from the City Management department. Initial discussions between city departments propose a transfer that is complete within a year.

Workshop Meeting Date: 05/17/2011 Length (in minutes): 45 Minutes Agenda Title: Annual Joint Meeting with Tigard Planning Commission Submitted By: Susan Hartnett Community Development Item Type: Update, Discussion, Direct Staff Meeting Type: Council Workshop Mtg. ISSUE Annual joint meeting with Tigard Planning Commission to discuss 2011 goals and planning topics. STAFF RECOMMENDATION / ACTION REQUEST Review goals and provide feedback. KEY FACTS AND INFORMATION SUMMARY The Tigard Planning Commission has prepared goals for 2011 (Attachment I) and would like to review these with the City Council and receive feedback. In preparing their goals, the Commission reviewed the City Council 2011 Goals, the Community Development Department's Council Goals Work Plan and the Tigard Planning Commission Work Program Matrix. As a result, the Commission's goals provide a high level of continuity with the City Council's priorities for the year. Because the successful implementation of key city goals will require collaboration with adjoining communities, the Commissioners included a new inter -city communication and outreach goal. The Planning Commission also included a new goal to improve the Commission's capacity through training and knowledge building. The Commissioners would also like to use this joint meeting as an opportunity to discuss and receive feedback from the City Council on any planning related topics that may be of interest or concern to the Council, especially those affecting the work plan and goal related activities of both the Council and the Commission. In particular the Commission would like to have a free flowing conversation about planning for the Tigard Triangle, including the cross over issues related to high capacity transit, the influences of the Transportation Planning Rule and the infrastructure funding needs of the district.

ISSUE Discussion of the process staff went through that led to the recommendation that the Local Contract Review Board award a contract for independent auditing services to Talbot, Korvola, and Warwick (TKW). STAFF RECOMMENDATION / ACTION REQUEST Information only. KEY FACTS AND INFORMATION SUMMARY ORS 297.425 requires the city to have a financial statement audit annually. The most recent audit service contract with the audit firm of Grove, Mueller, and Swank expired when the firm completed the fiscal year 2009 -10 financial statement audit. As a result, and in accordance with the City's Public Contracting Rules, staff issued a Request for Proposal for audit services in February of this year. Proposals were received from five firms prior to the due date of February 24, 201 1 : • Talbot Korvola & Warwick, LLP • Merina & Company, LLP • Moss Adams, LLP • Pauly Rogers and Co, LLP • Grove, Mueller & Swank. A proposal review team reviewed and scored the proposals based upon the criteria detailed in the Request for Proposal and the top three firms: Talbot Korvola & Warwick, LLP, Moss Adams, LLP and Pauly Rogers and Co, LLP, were interviewed on March 30, 2011. The firm receiving the most combined points between the proposal review and interview was Talbot Korvola & Warwick, LLP. Based upon this process staff has determined that Talbot Korvola & Warwick, LLP best meets the overall needs of the city and as such, received staffs recommendation for contract award. OTHER ALTERNATIVES The Local Contract Review Board could direct staff to hire a different firm or reissue the Request for Proposal.
