Mayor Cook opened the public hearing and announced that anyone may provide testimony.
Finance and Information Services Director LaFrance presented this item. Mr. LaFrance
reminded council they had adopted the current Transportation SDC Methodology (TSDC) and
fee for residential TSDC and provided background. He explained that approving this resolution
would amend the current master fees and charges and create a non-residential Transportation
System Development Charge. Mr. LaFrance said developers pay the fee when they apply for
their building permits and the purpose for the fee is to help the city pay for the additional impact
to the city's transportation system due to the increase in capacity to existing buildings as well as
new development. Mr. LaFrance explained staff had done extensive outreach to the non-
residential development community and they have analyzed multiple types of non-residential
developments and how the fee would be assessed. He said back in April 2015, council adopted
the methodology that shows the maximum the city could assess and the residential and non-
residential allowed discounts. He said because of the outreach staff had done,they received a
letter from the Tigard-Tualatin School District stating that while they prefer not to pay,what is
before council tonight is something they can live with.
Mayor Cook asked how many outreach meetings staff has had with the non-residential
development community and what kind of attendance they had from that group at those
meetings. Mr. LaFrance said they had two meetings with this group, they were well attended and
there were robust conversations. He said it is because of those meetings that staff is
recommending the fee and discount they are, as well as phasing in the implementation of the fee.
Mayor Cook asked if anyone from the audience would like to provide testimony. There was no
one.
Mayor Cook closed the public hearing.
Council President Snider stated they have had this conversation several times and what he is
hearing back from staff is that while the non-residential development community does not love it,
they can live with it. He said this is a good compromise and he can support it as proposed.
Councilor Woodard agreed and his biggest concern is making sure the city has enough dollars
going into the bucket to cover costs.
Mayor Cook agreed and said the city has gone two years without getting anything and that it ends
up being a five-year process rather than just the three years of phasing in.
Councilor Goodhouse agreed.
Councilor Anderson moved for adoption of Resolution No. 17-42 and Councilor Goodhouse
seconded the motion. Motion passed by a unanimous vote.
Deputy City Recorder Burgoyne read the number and title of the Resolution.

5. TOWN CENTER DEVELOPMENT AGENCY RESOLUTION IN SUPPORT OF
HOUSING PROJECT
Redevelopment Project Manager Farrelly gave the staff report and provided background. Mr.
Farrelly explained that approving the resolution would direct the Executive Director of the Town
Center Development Agency to write a letter of financial support for the Community Partners
for Affordable Housing's Tigard Triangle project. He said the Community Partners for
Affordable Housing (CPAH) is a non-profit affordable housing developer and service provider
who provides services in Tigard and other surrounding cities. They are currently putting together
financing for an affordable housing project that will be located in the Tigard Triangle Urban
Renewal District. Mr. Farrelly said this project would help fill the gap in the shortage of
affordable housing units in Tigard.
