Adjournment NPO #3 MEETING JUNE 13, 1983 FOWLER JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL-FRENCH ROOM 1. Meeting Called to order at 7:22 PM 2. Roll Call: Present: Bledsoe, Remsdell, Smith, Mortensen and Porter. Absent excused were Fyre and Moonier. 3. Minutes of April 4, 1983 were approved as submitted. The meeting of May was postponed awaiting publication of the Community Development Code. 4 . Consideration of Conditional Use fulfillments on JB Bishop project (Pietro's) : We had received three documents: (1) a report by Planner Liz Newton on fulfillment of the conditions, prompted by inquiries made by Ralph Furrer, (a) a response by JB Bishop to Ms. Newton's report, and (3) a summary report by Planning Director Bill Monahan in response to JB Bishop's letter. Mr. Ralph Furrer had inquired a couple times about our meeting but he was not present; later he told NPO #3 Chairman Bob Bledsoe that he was unable to find the French Room, for which we are sorry. Mr. Monahan's letter stated that only three conditions were un- resolved, the primary being Condition #7 requiring landscaping of/ for Phase 4 of the project. Of the other two issues Mr. Bishop said he would supply a document requested in Mr. Monahan's Item #1, and Mr. Bishop said Item #3 is between the Building Department and the Fire District. JB Bishop said he mows the property once per year. This year it was just recently. This is the same practice as other commercial un- developed properties nearby, specifically across from C.F. Tigard School, behind Standard Gas Station, behind Hancock Gas Station, along Hall and McDonald, and behind Canterbury Square. NPO #3 is conclusion is as follows: The responses by JB Bishop seem adequate. NPO #3 is satisfied with what he has told us; and it seems consistant with other commercial properties in the area. It seems to be undue burden to require complete landscaping prior to development of Phase 4, and current maintenance is appropriate. As explained above, Mr. Furrer did not appear or submit written comments . 5. UPAA - Urban Planning Area Agreement NPO #3's recommendations, which were presented to the City Council that night were: a. As part of the agreement the County should adopt the City comprehensive plan in the Active Planning Area. Page 2 b. In all cases, not just one, should be deleted the provision that failure to respond is to be interpreted as "no objection." Instead the parties should agree to return an enclosed postcard as verification of receipt of documents mailed. C. Section II Cl The modified wording proposed by City Attorney Ed Sullivan should stop after the word "conflicts." NPO #3 believes it is a violation of the City's comprehensive plan to promise not to preclude transportation plans in the County's plan, since their plan is in opposition to the City in regard to Durham Road and the Murray Boulevard Extension. 6. Other Business: NPO X63 objects to the May 12, 1983 letter from Planning Director Bill Monahan to Washington County Planner Rick Daniels, which was entered as testimony for the County transportation plan. The letter does not accurately reflect the position taken by the City in its adopted comprehensive plan. This leads to the general issue that the City should establish and enforce policy that its employees shall accurately reflect the position of the City as adopted in its ordinances in their communications to other government agencies. The NPO Directed the chairman to write a letter to Council and to seek a hearing on these two items. 7. Community Development Code The Chairman, Bob Bledsoe, explained the copies that all NPO #3 members had received of selected sections of the code. We discussed these some but ran out of time. 8. Next meeting will be June 20, 1983 at 7:15 at the French Room. 9. Adjourn to Council meeting at about 9:30 PM AGENDA FOR JUNE 20, 1983: 1. Call to Order 2. Roll Call 3. Approve Minutes 4.
