TIGARD TIMES
CITY CENTER TASK FORCF MEETS
The newly formed City Center Task Force met for the first time on 4/30/87. As
one of its first actions, the committee asked that copies of reference
materials relating to the downtown area be placed in the Tigard Library. As a
result of this request, some sixty documents and maps have been gathered
together, by planning department staff and turned over to the library . The
documents are arranged by subject area and are contained in six ranged
binders . The subject areas include history, Tigard Urban Renewal. Agency, land
development applications, and demographic and economic data. Other areas are
opinion surveys, zoning, traffic and transportation, drainage, and parks.
'The documents and maps are available for committee and general public use.
They are shelved in the Local Government Information section of the City
library. To keep these resource materials up to date, as they become
available, any new documents relating to the City Center area will be filed in
the binders. In a further effort to increase citizen participation and
knowledge, copies of all briefing materials and minutes
of Steering Committee meetings also will be placed in the binders .
For those who wish to attend Steering Committee meetings, the regular- meeting
date is the third Thursday of the month.
