5.3 Implementation of the Housing Plan
A. Staff Report
Svart summarized Items A & B and read the staff report with each.
B. Applicant's Presentation:
None
C. Public Testimony:
John Butler, 9760 S.W. O'Mara, asked why the proposal had not gone
to the NPO groups for consideration before being heard at the
Planning Commission level? Thought that smaller lots did not
necessarily mean cheaper houses. .
Smith stated that the Commission was setting up policy and framework
for the NPO's to work within.
Bill Clark, 7175 S.W. Baylor (Tigard Triangle) , complained about the
undependability of the notification process. Stated that the water
accessibility and traffic situation made the possibility of a high
density zone in that area unfeasible.
Jerry Scott of the Tigard Triangle Area stated that he did not want
apartments in that area.
Hugh Mayon, Bob Mullen and Marjory Sethger concurred with the ideas
of Jerry Scott and Bill Clark concerning the development of the
Tigard Triangle Area.
D. Staff Recommendations:
Staff recommends the tabling of Item A and Item B pending work with
the NPO's, with the goals contained in the memorandum dated November ;I

E. Commission Discussion & Action continued:
Items A & B:
o Wood thought the proposal was too strong and that staff should
work with the NPO's. Also thought the figure of 60% was too '
high for the percentage of people in the Tigard area who could
not afford the cost of a new home today, and that the proposed
density was too great. Agreed with staff proposal B and thought
that there was probably a need for more apartments in the area,
but not at the density staff proposed. •Did not think that smaller
lots would decrease housing costs.
o Funk agreed with Wood.
o Seeber thought that some lots should be 5,000 square feet but not
60%. Thought that apartment density was good.
o Speaker asked what the outcome would be if the NPO's and the
Planning Commission did not meet housing goals.
o Svart corrected the 60% figure and stated that 33% could afford .
5,000 square foot lots who could not afford the larger lot size.
o Brian stated that staff and the Commission should be careful with
statistics and a "phantom market." Thought that Planned Development
Districts took care of smaller lots. Questioned the medium income
figure.
o Smith stated that the Planned Development did not take care of smaller
availability. In that the base zoning for the development and
the overall density was based on R-7 zoning and its corresponding
larger lots.
o Smith stated that the smaller lots in a Planned Development were
not answering the problem of low cost housing in that their
smaller size was allowed due to open space areas and the additional
cost of that unbuilt open land. Spoke on the quality of the
community with allowing the smaller lot sizes, Portland had poor
quality neighborhoods and high quality neighborhoods with 5,000
square foot lots. Thought that staff figures were accurate in that
most people would buy a lower cost home if it were available.
Thought that if it did provide smaller lots, should decrease proposed
multifamily. Thought that all areas could be considered as R-5
zones which were currently R-7 and allow the NPO's to decide which
would not be R-5 zones. The market could also dictate the cost of
saleable homes.
o Weaver presented an outline of procedure for dealing with the citizen
participation groups.
o Wood presented motion: "That approximately 20-40% of the estimated

o Wood continued - total of new single family dwelling units that t
can be built in the future on buildable land in the Tigard area
should be available on lot sizes of 5,000 square feet. All R-7
and R-l0 zoned land in each NPO area should be considered, but C
each parcel that has been designated for this use by the staff
should be discussed individually by the NPO's.
o Smith suggested that the NPO's designate areas for smaller lots
by preference (i.e. least desirable to most desirable) . Thought ,;
that the percentage should be one figure and not a range.
o Wood modified the second sentence of the motion to read "The
relative suitability of all R-7 and R-1O land in each NPO area
should be considered, but each parcel that has been designated
for this use by the staff should be discussed individually by
the NPO's."
o Brian seconded.
Passed unanimously.
o Wood moved that approximately 30-35% of the total new dwelling
units in the Tigard Plan area shall be multifamily in keeping
with the relative proportion and in view of the strong regional
trend towards an even greater percentage of households living in
these areas. The NPO's should address the question of whether an
increase to this percentage in apartment dwellings should be
accomplished through an increase in the amount of land zoned for
apartment use or through higher density development or both.
o Smith asked for a modification of the motion?
o Wood modified the percentages of the first sentence to read "25-35%"
and added a final sentence, "The NPO's in recommending the
the appropriate percentage also should take into account the
percentage of land that is recommended to be zoned for R-5."

James Magnus spoke in favor of mobile homes. Presented photographs
demonstrating the similarity between mobile homes and stick built
homes. Preferred that skirting be eliminated and that the dwelling
be placed directly on foundations.

staff recommendation that individual mobile homes be permitted as
an outright permitted use in an R-5 and R-7 zone and conditional
uses in R-10 zones.

homes as a planned development?

north and west side, the United Sewer Treatment Plant on
the east across 85th and a single family parcel of three (3)
acres to the south.
6 . The site fronts S .W. 85th which is a county road in substandard
condition, having 30 feet of right-of-way with approximately
20 feet paved.
7 . The site will be served by USA having its interceptor at
the intersection of S .W. 85th and S .W. Durham. Water will
also be provided with adequate facility.

as permitted by the institutional development designation
with conditional use mini storage units (See CU 29-78) .
II . Conclusionary Findings:
1 . The right-of-way along S.W. 85th Street is inadequate. Ten

Tigard Planning Commission

Tigard, OR 97223
Gentlemen:
Mr. George Edens, the developer, is applying for a Conditional
Use permit to allow construction of a mini-storage complex on
a 4.39 acre parcel of land at 16285 SW 85th, Tigard; also
known as Tax Lot 1100 on tax map 2S-1-14-A. The land has been
recently annexed to the city.
The proposed use will be in conformance with the City of Tigard' s
Adopted Comprehensive Plan, amended by neighborhood plan No. 6,
August 1977, which shows the property in an institutional zone.
The developer feels that the proposed use is not incompatible
with the institutional activities surrounding it. The develop-
ment would be low occupancy and low keyed with only light
vehicular traffic added to SW 85th. The site is buffered on
four sides with open space, two sides of which (north and west)
are the playing fields of Tigard High School.,a.d one side (east)
the parking and landscaped areas of the Unified Sewerage Agency's
treatment plant. Given the inherent need for security in a
mini-storage complex, the exterior aspect of the complex would
largely be a blank wall, softened by landscaping.
With the large areas of urban and suburban low density housing
in the immediate vicinity, as well as apartment and retirement
complexes nearby, Mr. Edens feels that his project will answer
both a public and community need for extra storage space. Sto-
rage will be available for boats and recreational vehicles, as
well as general use storage.
The property is in an area recently annexed by the City of
Tigard and all city services are now available to the site.
The proposed location for the developer ' s use is more suitable
than other areas in the city already zoned M-4 because the
amount of land required for such a storage complex is not avail-
able at an economically feasible price in such areas. Given
the need for security above high visibility of such projects,
the distance from other structures is ideal.
Tigard Planning Commission
Page 2
October 11, 1978
The proposed development will have low impact on the adjacent ..
properties. The mini-storage buildings will "turn their backs"
toward the property lines and so will provide automatic screen-
ing augmented by landscaping for the activity inside. The
three shop buildings at the east side of the property will be
visually more interesting, with more visible activity, but
are directed away from the school buildings toward the Unified
Sewerage Agency buildings. No objectionable sounds are envis-
ioned as being emanating from the project. Sounds generated
would be mainly automotive, occasional, and dampened in part
by the shapes of the buildings themselves. The automotive
traffic would be light enough as to cause no problems at the
intersection of SW 85th & Durham Rd. The development would
generate no smoke or objectionable odors and would create no
additional student load on the schools.
No new public services are needed for the proposed development
except for the extension of construction on SW 85th Avenue.
Access for city fire trucks is facilitated by the generous
spacing between buildings. The buildings are planned to be better
than 1-hour fire resistive construction. An on-site manager
is planned which should minimize any extra load on the city
police department. No public transportation will be required.
Site drainage will be taken care of by catch basins in the
paved areas to the existing storm sewer in SW 85th Avenue.
Finally, the developer feels that due to the odors associated
with the Unified Sewerage Agency' s treatment plant, most insti-
tutional and other high human occupancy uses1would not want
this particular location.
