Commissi�ner Munro stated that she is in support of the amendment. She is not in fav�r �f larg� area� of asphalt parking lot� ba�ed oro peak demand bu� are largely unus�d. �s fiar a� implcmenting this parking �lan, Commi�sioner Munro would like to see appiicants use crea#ive strat�gies and Ic�ok at all aspects of their parking needs, such as �arpoaling, encauraging public transportatic��1, p�rtnering with park $�. ride, sh�t�l�s, �tc., a� weli as being s�lf-policing, in order to minimize impact on the �urrounding neighborh�od. Commissiansr Mare� anc� Commi�sianer S�tton �xpressed suppa�rt of the recomrnendafiior�. Cot�nmissicaner Sienerth said that while she does fe�l that the current parking requirerr�ent �s s�i��wh�t sfirict, she cioes have som� Goncerns about allowing or�-street parking fior a religious f�cility. T'here should be uniformity in the parking code and they s�hould nat set a preCedent where ofiher uses will use thi� amendment as a b�si� fior s�ekir�g exc�ption� to the parkin� code. �h� supports the am�ndm�nt i� par�, but vvc�uld Bike t� limit the ratio �0 1-to-3 ratio wi#hout adjustment. Prssident Padgett pointed nut th�t sh�red parkin� with adjac�nt prc�pertie� is also an adjustment a�d that on-street p�rking can b� vi�v►+ed as shared p�rkir�g. Commi�sion�r Bienerth �aid she is in favor of shar�d parking, h�r c�bjection is anly with an-str�et parking v�ahen it impacts surrounding n�ic�hbors, She would l�ke �taff to car�sider�this is�ue. Comrv�issioner Anderson cc�mmented that on-stre�t parking is only allowed on �tre�ts d�signed to �ccommodate or�-stres� parking and are approved for that st�ndard. While on-street parking �an imped� tr�f�ic flow, it also seeves to slow tr�ffic. Commi�sianer S�ttarl noted thiat on-atr�et parking is required to be adjacen� to the facility and is no# allowed on local residential classifie�d sfireets. In addition, a s�reet must be upgr�d�d for on-str�et parking ta be allowed. A bri�f discussie�n was held r�garding str�et cla�sifications and what streets are eligibl� for on-street parking. The intent i� to preclude an�street parking an lacal residential streets, but parking is permitted on Iocal collector and cor�mercial streets. Commissioner Bushner stated she supports the 1-to-3 r�tio, but noted that rriany churches have a larger senior popula#ion tha4 cammanly only have one persan in the car. Her main concern is about on-street parking and its impact on the community. Ce�rnmissianer Webb has no objectior�s to the amendment, but also is concerned about on-street parking. PLANNING COMMISSION MEBT{NG MINU'I'E5 - February 4,2002 — Page 4 ` � Comrnissioner �utton asked what the requirements are tn ensure that a street is , suitable far aliowing on-streefi parking. Staff responded that an applicant seeking to ccaunfi c�n-street parking must present a plan showing that the street meets the requirements for and can aceommodate on- . street parking. On-street p�rking is limited to thc�se stre�ts that are nof lacal neighborhood streef�. If there is an impact, it ca� be addressed through th� conditi�nal use proces�. �ommissi�ner �uehner asked if the City has the ability to force a r�ligious institution ta address their parking needs if the us� expands over time. �taff respn�nded that the City can only req�aire that th� facility provide the required numb�r of spaces based on the nu►aiber of seats in the main sanctuary. Presider�t Padgett stated thafi h� is in support of the amendment. He does �ot feel that what�ther j�risdictians req�ire should be a consideration here. He supports increasing the ratio ta 1-to-4. This amendmenfi daes not encourage people to park on neighb�rhood streets. V1/her� an applicant presents a parking plan that counts on-street parking, that �applicant will be required fc� �mprove the �treet tv meet the sfandards fc�r ac�omrn�datin� on-street parking. He feel� that the concerns expr�ss�d a�iov� have be�n addressed. �c�liawing dis�ussion, Commis�ioner Munrv moved, bas�d on the fir�dings in fihe staff report and testimor�y heard tonight, fo recommend �o City C�uncil to adopt the prop�os�d amendrroent, includir�g �he amendment to Footno�e 6 as folluws: "Relig9ous institutions may pravide one space for ev�;ry faur s�ats an site in the main a�sembly ar�a prnvided that they supply the Cifiy with a parking plan that dernonstrafies that th� peak parking d�r�and of ane space f�r every three se�ts i5 rnet utilizing �r�y r,ombination caf the alternatives m�enfiinned in this chapter.

The City will therefor� be de�ling with two separate stiandards until ar�d if Vl/ashington County changes its code to apply to that area. Fu�h�r di�cussion was held regarding the Coty af Tigard ar�d Wa�hington �ounty's adoption af these amen�ments.

F��ligious institutions have changed the way th�t they operate. One can no longer �ay that religious instifutions are comprised �fi a mair� sanctuary and several �mall classrooms for Sunday school. In addition to Boy Scoufi� and Girl Scout� there are aerobics se�ssions, art I�ssons, counseling, day care anc� schools.

Many af the Religious Institutic�ns within Tigard have indicat�d tha4 th�y will be seeking to expand their facilitiss within the next few years. Sev�ral of the ministries approached City staff about amending fihe parking standards to reflect a standard that would be� more in line with other jurisdic�ions ar�aund Tigard. Staff cor�ducted � survey of surrounding jurisdiction requirements, and faund that the Tigard D�veiapment Code w�s stricter than surrounding jurisdictions. However, a literafiure review of profes�ional sources show� that Tigard regulations are in line with professional rec�rnmendations. To that ��d, �taff was directpd to work with a parking committe� to come up with a resolution and proce�� with an application to amend the code. �E�`TI��1 8V. �U�liIIAARY C►F e4PPLI�A�L.� CF�ITERi,A Cha�t�r 1�.3�0 stat�s �ha� I�gisi�t6ve text �rn��drnents sh�l[ b� �andertak�n by r��ans of� �'ype 8�! pra��da�re, a� go�ern�d �y ��ctiora '!�.390.060G. �hap�e� °iffi.�90.060G sfiates th�t the recor�re�endation by the C�o�rnissian and th� d�ecision b� the Council �ha61 be b�sed on consider�tion of th� fodlo�ing f��tor�: .

In additic�n, the fed�rally mandated air quaiity plan aclopted by the state relies on the 2040 Growth Concept tially achieving its transportation abje�ctives. This titfe established r�gionwide-parking polici�s th�t set the minimum numb�r c�f parking spaces which can be required by loca9 governments for certai� fiypes of new development.

The City of Tigard irnplem�r�ts this policy through its off-street parking sfiandards. Currently, Tig�rd's parking standard for religious ir�stitutions is the m�ximum minimum allowed by Metro.

ZOA2001-U0003 PAGE 4 OF 8 2/4/02 PUBLIC HEARlNG STAFF REl'(JRT TO PLANNING COMMISSION � � S�G'Tl��D i/. aTA►FF A��4LY51� The pt-�posed amendment �Ilows religious institutions and in cases of shared parking, other u�es, �ome added flexibiiity. There i� an inherent conflict between required p�rking based on peak demand and actual need as peak demand is not always consistent. And, there are many pros and cons tn accommodation of parking. The arnendmerrt under consideration would reiax the curren# one space far every twa se�ts in the rrtiain sanctuary. It wo�ld alldw religiau� in�titutions to utilize several altern�tives to meet the underlying ratio of one space far every three seats in the main sanctuary. Ti�� benefits of requiring I�ss parking include le�s impervious sur�ac�, more spaGe fnr development or open spr�ce, and less �tress or� the Tigard stormwater system. The dawnside is discussed im m�re detail below. In order to realize fhe current propo�ai, the following ste�s were taken. Sta�' was approached by the Tualatin Valley Christian Ministries (TVCM), a conglomerat� of Tigard Churches, to review and amend 4he Tigard Development Code (TDC) to allow one space for ev�ry four seats in the main �an�tuary. A� a r�suit of this request, staff began researching the validity of the problem. 6t w�s discavered in a survey ofi oth�r jurisdictional requirements (�.xhibit B), th�# Tigard wa� in fact sfiricfier than the surrounding jurisdictior�s when it came to parking. it was also discovered in a lifierature survey of prafessional resources tha�t parking requirement� for rsligiaus institu�ians varied dramatically across the country. In same insfances the rafiio wa� ane �pace for every ten se�t� in the mair� sanctuary, and in other cases, the r�equire�rien� was one space for every fwo seats in the main sanctuary. Th�re seer��ed to be no re�l justification far any orae �t�ndard. Staff proce�ded to conti�ue r��e�rching alternatives and solutions that would accammadate the Relig6ous irrstitutions in "('igard, but tho�e same alfernatives and sol►�tions wc�uld also have to reli�ve Tigard neighborhoods o$ added congesti�� and conflicts that become a probi�m during religiaus acti�iti�s. �s indicated ir� the previous discussion, citizens vaius fhe righf to peacefuf enjoyment nf their neighborhoods almost as much as their right to freedom of religion. The prof��siona! resourcE;s, Eno Faundafiion for Transportafion, Inc. and Institute nf Traffic Engineers (ITE) both indicate that one space for every two seats is ap�ropriate based on demand, but concede that the actual requirements are highly variabie. In describing �aarking demand, the Eno Foundation states that, "...parking demand is c�efined as the accumul�tion of vehicles parked at a given fime as a resu/t of activi�y at a given site. Dernands may reflect maximum accumulations during the ' aver�ge day, peak day of the week, or during the peak seasan of the year. Irrespective of when they occur, parkin�g accurraulatians result from interactions between three traffi� variabl�s: total daily trips attracted, time pattern of arrivals, and avPrage lengths of stay. To illustrate, two sites with tB�e same land ar�a and floor�pace may attract equal daily numbers . ofi' vehicles, yet their parking accumulations can be quite different. If at one location cars arrive nearly simultaneously and park for�an average of�ight hours, ifis parking �ccumulation could be four tim�s that of the� secand site, if fhe seco�nd site's vehicle arrivals are spread ouf evenly over eight hours and the average length of stay is 2 hvurs. Thus, in determining pa�ki�►g needs, the arrival pattern ar►d length of stay (parking duration) are as importanf as the total number of daily vehicles attracted."(Pg. 37) Z.CA2001-00003 ' PAGE 5 OF 8 7;/4/02 PUBL{C HEARINC STAFF REPORT TO F'LANNING COMMISSION � � However, ir� the case of most religious in�titutions, peak demand is not met as frequ�r�tly as mo�t uses. So, staff could concede that at times nther than m�in service 4ime�s, the requirsr�ent �f one sp�ce for every two seats in the m�in sar�ctuary could s�em on�raus. Ac�ording to the 2000 Census results, the average hau�ehald size is �.48 persons in the C@t,y c�#Tigard. Assurr�ing every househald ir� 7igard attended � religious funr,tion in only one car per famiBy, the nn site parking ratio would need to be 1 space for ev�ry 2.48 seats in fhe sanctuary to accommod�te all �arking on site. Sfiaff realizes that every household in Tigarc� d�aes not attend only one church, but all of the parishioners are not 1°igard resid�nts, and we traditianally pi�n f�r worst case �cer�arios. T'he IT'E manual r;onducted parking studies ofi religiaus institutions that show a direct correfation with the rE:quirement of on� space for �very two seats in the main sanctuary. Th� res�its of their studies are illustrated in the following table: DAT'A IP�.t'T�1N1� �4�lJATlOf�i 8QQ W 700 ei. � � 6Q0 C� tt3 ' � 5U0 a � � 0 4 � 400 :� � � , � 3p0 t�. �c � zoa � �� _ � �oa � ' d a - 20� 400 60Q 8Q(3 1,Q00 1,200 1,400 X = NUM�Ef�O�ATTE6VD��S O ACl'UAL DAT�POINTS FI'fTf�O CURVE �ite�d cuPV� Eq�,at�on: � = o.4J5(X) — �S.o Ftz = 0.�49 ZOA2Q01-000U3 PAGE 6 OF 8 2/4/02 PU�LIC HEARING STAFF REPORT TO PLAIVNONG COMMISSION � � Religious In�#ifiutions are defined as, "places ofi rc9igious worship which may include related accesso� �ses such a� offices, �las�roo�n�, auditoriums, social halls, gymnasiums, and. nfiher recreation�l actidities" in the Tir�ard Dev�l�pmenfi Code. When these ancillary uses becor�ie a part of a particular institi�tiian, the activities on site increase, and so does the demand for parking. There does not a�pear to be �ignificant overlap with religious services, so th� cnde does not place any additiona! requirement� �or the accessory us�s. However, religiaus institutians are permitted conditian�lly or outright in every re�idenfiial and commercial zoning district, and r,ur inability �o treat fihem individually as it relates to parlcing, undoubtedly creates conflict ir� those institutians that are located within or close to neighborhoods. As a result, the stricter standard is more appropriately impos�d to prevent conflict. The am�ndment beforP the Commission is an attempt to balance the need� of the neighborhaods with tl�e needs of the re(igious institutians. The proposal was draffied as a result of r�search, department�i camments, and the cooperafion of a parking committee camprised of two representatives from the TVCM, ane represent�tive from a neighborhood that recently voic�d concerns regarding a Church parking facility, and one Planning Comrnission member. Th� proposed c�anges to the �ode can be reviewed in Exhibit ",40" T'he only change that was not agr�ed upon by the committ�e was the ct�ange in ratian fi'rom 1 space for every 3.3 se�ts to 1 space far �very 3 seats. StafF inade this chane�e in light of the census results. Staff obser�ation is that in fihis day large numbers of si�egle and two person vehicles attend churches. The � �pac� for every 4 5eat �fi�ndard may ri�ve been more rel�v�nt in a time�evhen mare families and larger families attended Church t�c�et'h�r. In stammaryy th� changes in�lude rel�xir�g th� base standard to o�e �pace for e��ry #hree seats, permit�i�g religious institutions fio �ount on-stre�fi parking where the street is adjac�:nt to the sifie, desi�ned, and improv�d to accornmodate on stre�t pap•king, and allowing shared p�rking to be ac:commodated at site� fhat are �p to 50Q fee$ away from the site as appos�d to the 300 feet currentl,r in the cc�d�. The 500-foot sfiandard would appiy to all uses. This amendment came about after st�ff researched the stafie Transporta�con Planning F2ule �s it relates to the acc�ptabl� vvalking distance for pedesfirians. Typicaliy, ped�strians consider a quarter of a mile to be acceptable in ped�striar� c►riented developments. If an applicant c�n show that the one space for ev�;ry thr�E; seafi� can be iliustraF�d in a parking plan utilizing � �omhination of the above measure�, adjustments, aind variances, fihen they would be requiired tc� onfy accommodat� parking afi one spacE for every fiour seats in the main sar�c.tuary on site.
