3. INITIATE PUBLIC REVIEW OF TIGARD TRIANGLE URBAN RENEWAL PLAN
Senior Planner Shanks and Consultant Eileen Howard talked about the CCDA's role in the public
review of the Tigard Triangle Urban Renewal Plan,vision of the plan and identified barriers. Ms.
Shanks explained staff had received input from the Citizen Advisory Council and the Technical
Advisory Committee,and all agreed it is a good project in creating the Tigard Triangle. She went
over the board's previous discussion from the last meeting and said she had followed up with Jim
Long as requested,but that she hadn't heard back from him. She said TVF&R supports the plan,
but has some concerns that city staff and TVF&R are working through. She explained they were
before the CCDA in order to initiate the public review of the plan and if the board approved a
motion tonight,the next steps were to brief the Washington County Board of Commissioners on
October 18,2016,the Planning Commission on November 14,2016 and then go before City
Council on December 13,2016 for adoption and referral to the May 2017 election.
Director Henderson asked if this was a time sensitive situation and if there was enough time to
address TVF&R's concerns. Chair Cook said this will need to be presented to City Council in
December. Ms. Shanks said yes,and stated it was not time sensitive at this point and that staff
would be presenting the final version at the December 13 meeting;which allowed enough time to
make it on the May 2017 election. She said they were asking the CCDA to initiate the public review
process at tonight's meeting and if the CCDA chose to move forward,staff would be sending out
consultant review letters to the general public and overlapping taxing districts.
Ms. Shanks explained staff would be revising the plan before the December 13 City Council meeting
and would include any changes from TVF&R, the legal description and current property value data
which would be released from the County Assessor in mid-October.
Chair Cook asked when the start date for locked in values began. Eileen Howard explained that
when and if the voters approve the Urban Renewal Plan and it is adopted,the frozen base of
property values will be at that time and they would have already been established in October 2016.
There was discussion about bare land value vs land that had already been developed. Ms. Howard
said the roll the Assessor adopts would be within the next two weeks and is based on the values of
those properties as of January 1,2016;so that any development that has come on the tax roll after
January 1 goes into that incremental value within the area. She explained the Assessor's values are
based on a calendar year and not a fiscal year when assessing property.
Ms. Howard discussed the language in the State Statue and what was required from the city.
Motioned by Director Goodhouse and seconded by Director Henderson to forward the Tigard
Triangle Urban Renewal Plan to the Tigard Planning Commission for their review of the Plan's
conformance to the Tigard Comprehensive Plan and then to the Tigard City Council for a public
hearing,the review,and vote. Motion passed by a unanimous vote.

4. PUBLIC REVIEW OF CITY CENTER URBAN RENEWAL PLAN SUBSTANTIAL
AMENDMENT-
Redevelopment Project Manager Farrelly discussed initiating the public review for the City Center
Urban Renewal Plan Substantial Amendment and what was discussed at the last meeting. Mr.
Farrelly explained that because the recession had reduced property values and development,the city
was falling behind on its capacity and was projecting six million less in tax increments than what was
originally projected. He said that in order for the city to get closer to the 22 million dollars in
maximum indebtedness,they needed to expand the urban renewal area;allowing for collection of
tax increment revenues that would be more in line with the original amount envisioned for the
urban renewal area. He explained the City Center Advisory Commission had been briefed on the
substantial amendment. He said the next steps in the process would be to brief the Washington
County Board of Commissioners on October 18,2016,the Planning Commission on November 14,
2016 and finally the City Council on December 13,2016 to consider adopting the draft plan.
Chair Cook asked if the expansion would create a need for rezoning. Mr. Farrelly said it would not
necessarily change the zoning.
Director Goodhouse asked if the property value of the areas that are existing are locked in and if the
property value for the new areas would be forged from the start date of January 1;creating two sets
of values within the new district. Mr.Farrelly said that was correct. Ms. Howard said the Assessor
would combine those into one frozen base.
Director Henderson asked if the timeline would catch up with the Tigard Triangle Urban Renewal
Plan. Mr. Farrelly said they are trying to mirror the same timeline and bring this item forward at the
same time to each Commission/Committee.
Motioned by Director Goodhouse and seconded by Director Henderson to forward the City
Center Urban Renewal Plan Substantial Amendment to the Tigard Planning Commission
for their review of the Plan's conformance to the Tigard Comprehensive Plan and then to
the Tigard City Council for a public hearing,the review, and vote. Motion passed by a
unanimous vote.

Mr.Farrelly said they would be getting an endorsement of this motion from the City Center
Advisory Council(CCAC) next week.
Director Henderson asked if the same committees that reviewed the Tigard Triangle Urban Renewal
Plan had also reviewed this plan. Mr. Farrelly said no,but letters would be going out to all the
taxing districts. Ms. Howard said she would be at those meetings and would show them the
amendment.
