,,- CITY OF TIGARD, OREGON
TO: City Council and Budget Committee August 17, 1984
FROM: John E. Cook, Mayor
SUBJECT: SPECIAL MEETING MONDAY, AUGUST 20, 1984
The Budget Committee met on Thursday, August 16, 1984, at the Durham Treatment
Plant. Failing to obtain a quorum, 5 members convened a Committee of the
Whole and discussed the Tax Base issue. It was decided to call a special
Budget Committee meeting at 7:00 p.m. , Monday, August 20, 1984.
Since Councilor/committee member Phil Edin will be in Eugene, and can only
attend telephonically by speaker phone at City Hall, the meeting will be held
at City Hall. For that same reason, I am calling a Special City Council
meeting for 7:15 p.m. , Monday, August 20, 1984, at City Hall to consider the
Budget Committee's recommendation and Tax Base Election Resolution.
i4ww, The revised Monday, August 20, 1984 agenda is:
0 7:00 p.m. . . Budget Committee meeting at City Hall
0 7:15 p.m. . . City Council meeting at City Hall
0 7:25 p.m. . . Recess City Council at City Hall
0 7:35 p.m. . . Reconvene City Council at Fowler Junior High

Budget Committee
Ladies and Gentlemen:
I apologize for being out of town and missing the special Budget Committee
meeting called for August 20, 1984. So that I might have some input, I am
offering the following comments and attaching my analysis.
I am convinced that we Budget Committee members have no responsible choice but
to opt for a tax base election at the November General Election. The
alternative is not pleasant if Measure #2 passes, and I believe that it will,
the only question to be determined is "how much."
I have come to the conclusion that a logical and defendable amount would be
$1,150,000. My attached analysis shows how I arrived at that amount. In
general, what I am saying is $911,000 was an acceptable level in 1983-84. A
tax base of $1,150,000 should be acceptable for 1985-86 and 1986-87.
Thank you for giving this input your consideration.
Respectfully submitted,
Phil Edin
Councilor
