Access To and From Site Traffic Impact Neighborhood Impact Environmental Impact COMMENT: NO COMMENT: [J Signed: Date: CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT APPLICATION KOREAN HOPE PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH INTRODUCTION: This application requests approval of a Conditional Use Permit to establish a church on property located at 10330 S.W. Scholls Ferry Road. The subject property, which is de- scnbed as Tax Lot 3300 of Map No. 1S 134AB, contains an existing single family residence. It is proposed that this existing home be used as a temporary meeting place for the church until such time as the congregation can afford to build a permanent church facility on this site. The basement of the existing home proposed to be used for worship services,while the main floor will be used as a residence for the pastor's family. The subject property is designated Medium Density Residential by the Comprehensive Plan and is zoned R-12. Churches are a listed as a Conditional Use in this zoning district. This report has been prepared on the behalf of the applicant,The Korean Hope Presbyteri- an Church of Tigard, which has an option to purchase the subject property. The owner of record, Mr. Chester Robinson, has given his authorization for the submittal of this applica- tion for Conditional Use Permit approval (see attached letter). This report will demonstrate that the proposed use complies with the relevant approval criteria and development stand- ards of the Tigard Community Development Code. DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED USE: The Korean Hope Presbyterian Church presently has a congregation comprised of approx- imately 50 families. As mentioned above, it is proposed that the church will meet in the basement of the home on the subject property. This basement has a floor area of approxi- mately 2,000 square feet. The church proposes to have two worship services on Sunday: a morning service from approximately 10:00 a.m. to noon, and an afternoon service from 4:00 to 6:00 p.m. In addition to Sunday services, the church will have an evening meeting on Wednesdays from approximately 7:30 to 9:00 p.m. Additionally, a small bible study group will meet once a week in the home of the pastor. A parking lot is proposed to be construct- ed on the property to provide for the parking needs of the church. 1 CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT APPROVAL CRITERIA: A. The size and dimensions of the site at which the conditional use will occur must provide adequate area for the needs of the proposed conditional use; Comment: The subject property is 2.54 acres in area, is gently sloping to the south- west,and is proportioned such that all of the site is usable. The site plan submitted with this application shows the location of the existing home on the subject property as well as the planned parking lot improvements. This drawing demonstrates that the site is of adequate size and physical configuration to support the proposed use. B. The characteristics of the site must be suitable for the proposed conditional use. Charac- teristics to consider are such things as size, shape, location, topography and natural fea- tures; Comment: The suitability of the site in terms of size and shape have been addressed in the comment on Criterion "A", above. The location of the subject property is ideal for the proposed use. The site has frontage on Scholls Ferry Road and can be provid- ed with access at the signallized intersection of Connestoga Drive with this street. This direct access to an arterial street means that the proposed use will not have to make use of local streets,thereby avoiding undesirable traffic in residential areas. The site is also ideal in that it is buffered from Low Density Residential areas to the south by a City park so that any potential noise impacts upon this residential neighborhood is buffered by the park. Site topography is depicted on the site plan. The site is very level (less than 5 percent in grade) over the majority of the property,with a small area of steeper slopes in the southwest corner (approximately 8 percent in grade). Thus, the site terrain poses no constraints to development. The vegetation on the subject property consists of landscaping around the home and a garden area along the south- ern border of the property. No significant natural areas exist on the property and, therefore, the proposed use will not have any impact upon such areas. C. All public facilities needed by the proposed conditional use must have adequate capacity to serve the use; Comment: The subject property fronts on Scholls Ferry Road. This roadway is undergoing major improvements by Washington County to provide four travel lanes and a center left turn lane. All right-of-way required for these improvements has already been deeded to the County. A traffic light is also planned to be installed at the intersection of Connestoga Drive with Scholls Ferry Road. With these improvements, this roadway will meet County arterial standards and, thus, will be fully capable of serving the proposed Conditional Use. Sanitary sewer is available from a sewer main located at the southwest corner of the subject property. This line is a fifteen inch sewer main and has capacity to serve the proposed use. Water service is available from Tigard Water District. The existing home is connected to the water main in 2 • • Springwood Drive.Storm drainage from the subject property can be accommodated by the natural stream corridor in Englewood Park to the south of the subject property. Storm drainage from the parking lot is proposed to be channeled through a grassy swale, as shown on the site plan, to provide for treatment of the storm water, and drained to the creek. Fire protection is provided by Tualatin Valley Fire and Rescue District. D. Any applicable requirements for the zoning district in which the conditional use will take place must be met. Those requirements that are modified by the Community Develop- ment Code's Conditional Use chapter, however, are exempted. Comment: The minimum dimensional standards of the R-12 District are: a 20,000 square foot minimum lot size (the subject property is 2.54 acres in size and, thus, exceeds this standard); a 25 foot minimum front yard setback (a special 75 foot set- back from the centerline of Scholls Ferry Road is also required by the Code. The existing house has a setback in excess of 30 feet from the right-of-way and approxi- mately 80 feet from centerline of the road); 20 foot side and rear yard setbacks (the existing home is centrally located on the subject property and has side and rear yard setbacks which greatly exceed these minimums); and a 35 foot maximum height limit (the existing home is a single-story ranch home which is well under this maximum height standard). The district requires that a minimum of 20 percent of the site area be landscaped (as noted on the site plan, the landscaped area greatly exceeds this standard). A minimum lot frontage of 25 feet is required (the subject property has in excess of 400 feet of frontage on Scholls Ferry Road). There are no other specific standards of the zoning district which would directly apply to this proposed use. E. Any supplementary requirements applicable to the conditional use must be met. These may be such requirements as sign standards, landscaped buffers, restrictions on operating hours, etc. Comment: Plans for signage have not been developed as of this time. A separate application for a sign permit will be made if this Conditional Use Permit is approved. Compliance with sign standards will be demonstrated at that time. The parking stand- ards for churches require a minimum of one parking space per 100 square feet of assembly area. The basement area of the home contains approximately 2,000 square feet. As shown on the site plan, a paved parking lot containing 25 parking spaces will be provided. The parking lot will also provide one parking space for disabled persons. Landscaping requirements for parking lots require that one tree be provided in or near the parking lot for each seven parking spaces. The site plan shows four new trees in the parking area to comply with this standard. 3 F. The conditional use applied for must comply with all the applicable policies of the com- prehensive plan. The applicable policies of the Comprehensive Plan are 2.1.1, 6.6.1, 7.1.2, and 8.1.3. Policy 2.1.1 will be satisfied because N.P.O. 7 and surrounding property owners will be given appropriate of the hearing on the proposed use and will be given the opportuni- ty to comment on the proposed conditional use. Policy 6.1.1 will be satisfied because existing roadways, neighborhood park, fencing, and existing vegetation will appropriately screen the proposed use from adjacent residential uses. The only new improvement to be constructed on site will be the parking lot for the church use. New tree plantings are depicted on the site plan for this area. Policy 7.1.2 is satisfied because adequate water, sanitary sewer, and storm sewer facili- ties are available to serve the proposed use, as discussed earlier in this report. Policy 8.1.3 is satisfied because the ongoing improvement project along S.W. Scholls Ferry Road will improve this street to full arterial standards. 4 n PARKSIDE CONESTOGA PARK OFFICES APARTMENTS (270 UNITS) ON THE GREEN CONDOMINTUMS d�P (351 UNITS) ENGLEWOOD TERRACE APARTX=S �p4 ° Wpp� SGAOL ENGLEW OOD ` SITE i Z a F �O PARK a N e WESTWOOD GREENS R.

In response, the intersection was added to our program for speed/traffic counts and automatic counters were placed at the intersection in mid-August . Review of the data indicates that one of the counters malfunctioned during part of the time and did not give us complete data. So, we are having to repeat a portion of the count to make sure we have good data. Therefore, I do not yet have a final report . Based on the data we have so far, it appears that SW 135th carries approximately 4, 000 vehicles per day. Morning Hill immediately east of 135th carries approximately 2, 000 vehicles per day; west of 135th, it carries approximately 400 vehicles per day. By comparison, 121st near North Dakota Street carries approximately 8, 000 vehicles per day. North Dakota near 121st carries almost 5, 000 vehicles per day. In other words, the traffic volume at 121st/North Dakota is more than twice the volume at 135th/Morning Hill . From the preliminary data, it appears that the 135th/Morning Hill intersection does not meet the warrants for a 4-way stop. However, as soon as the re-count is available, we will review the warrants again, including a review of speeds and accident history. I expect to have a final report ready prior to your October meeting. rw/135th-MH August 11 , 1990- To: 992To: NPO's and Commissions I am contacting all of you to give an update on an informal proposal I have submitted to the other City Council Members & Mayor Edwards. It came to my attention last week that a part of Tigard's Heritage was lost by Tigard City staff decision to the cutting down of more than a century old Catalpa Tree in front of Rosa Tigard's Mothers home on Gaarde street. The City of Tigard has been the project director and designer of the Gaarde Street extension .and realignment. I really feel remiss in the lost of this Heritage Catalpa tree because according to staff there were no plans to cut any trees along the access road for Gaarde street I didn't feel the tree was in peril. A piece of Tigards' history has been lost. This kind of information needs to have an avenue for dialogue for the future to protect other cultural, historic and natural resources. When are we going to have a preservation policy to recognize significant trees, specimens, etc? We need to address this so that an historical inventory can be made and documentation and location is-kept on file just as Historic Overlay Districts are now done. First- Establish a preservation alert within the engineering or Building dept. This might be done by age and/or height and/or diameter of tree. If the tree meets that criteria, it should be investigated and researched for significance. The City of Tigard requires that developers have a tree inventory and hire a arborist before any site is processed for development if the tree is over 6 inches in diameter at 4 feet high above the ground. Second- While the tree might not be a rare species in general, but be rare in Tigard. I bet no one knows. Same could hold true for a large Oak or Walnut, etc. Each should be reviewed by certified arborist against a written city policy. City of Tualatin has a yearly nomination from citizens to select a group of what they call heritage trees that are specifica113* inventoried and identified. Third- A formal or informal hearing be set up via Historic District Committee that we already have in place, to assess the inventory case by case until inventory status is implemented. If you support the general concept, I need your help in creating: 1. A policy and code into a definite avenue for tracing and protecting the heritage of our city trees. 2. A general policy that staff will have the same accountability for tree preservation as the developers are required to do. Please give me feedback and let other council members know your feelings via letter or telephone. Thank you in advance for bringing this to attention of your group. If you have any questions please call me. 3 y Fessler 639-1216 P.S. La t week the above general policy proposal was addressed by NP03 and they are very supportive that this issue be resolved & a policy is put into place.
