Curious about the Proud Ground long-range planning. What was determined? The Affordable Housing Construction Excise Tax(CET) fund was established by the Council through Ordinance 19-16 in 2019.This tax and the associated fund implemented one of the key recommendations of the Affordable Housing Plan adopted by the Council earlier that year. CETs for affordable housing were enabled by Senate Bill 1533 in 2016. State law restricts the use of these funds for the development of affordable housing. The city's CET fund is held separately from the general fund and is not fungible, meaning that money from the CET fund cannot be used to fill budget gaps in programs that do not produce affordable housing. The city's use of CET is directed by the adopted Affordable Housing Plan and is currently used to support permanently affordable homeownership through a contract with Proud Ground, the region's only community land trust.This 5-year, $3 million contract was approved by Council. If the contract could be legally cancelled without cause, this cancellation would not free up any funding for other purposes across the city. In the coming year, the Housing Production Strategy will assess the health and uses of the CET fund, and in coordination with the Housing Policies adopted for River Terrace 2.0, will support the construction of affordable and workforce housing, ensuring that the city makes meaningful progress on the targets established for the city in the Oregon Housing Needs Analysis established by House Bill 2003 (2018). The city will be required to adopt housing production strategies that support meeting these targets and the CET fund is the only significant source of funding that will allow for meeting those requirements. 2. How long has the Planning position been vacant-are there specific examples of city work that will be delayed due to the elimination of this position? The Project Planner position has been vacant for approximately 9 months.The position was left unfilled while the position description was being reconsidered to accommodate departmental needs. At the onset of budget season, the position was held open in the event that FTE cuts were needed. Responses from Community Development Department This position would have filled a critical long range planning role.The following projects were placed on hold as a result of leaving this position unfilled: o Public infrastructure standards updates-this project, paused until staff capacity recovers,will update the city's standards for the construction of streets, sidewalks, and other public infrastructure in the right-of-way to bring them in line with current engineering standards, relevant case law, and new state regulations.The standards currently in effect place the city at risk of appeal of development approvals that rely on them and make the process of development approval more difficult for applicants and staff. o Comprehensive Plan Update-the city's current Comprehensive Plan was adopted in 2008,with a horizon year of 2028. An update is at least 5 years overdue as a result of limited staff capacity, and because a Comprehensive Plan update is a major multi-year project, the city is at risk of entering 2028 with a plan that does not look past that date. In addition, the context of growth has changed significantly in the past 20 years and we are overdue for a fresh look at the future of development, housing, and economic activity. 3. Transportation Performance Measures-Can examples be given regarding the 65% progress on the Transportation System Plan? How was this determined? The 65% completion target for the Transportation System Plan was based on an August start date and an expected 18-19 month completion timeframe. Within that timeline, the project would be approximately 65% complete at the end of FY27. 4. Do you have metrics to track businesses in the economic development pipeline?And at what stage of development are these different businesses in? How many business have you talked to and which ones actually begin development in Tigard and why? o We are averaging about 30 new business license applications per month. o We also rely on information sharing between economic development and the rest of planning/engineering to hear what development applications, new use applications, or tenant improvement projects are being supported through the land use and permitting processes. Responses from Community Development Department o We maintain working relationships with developers and brokers in order to keep a pulse on the opportunities to connect businesses interested in Tigard with spaces that could support their business plans. o We monitor engagement between the business community and our primary partners of the Tigard Chamber and the Tigard Downtown Alliance to watch for trends in the business climate. o Our developed centers (Washington Square Mall and Bridgeport) regularly report performance measures which we can use to attribute to nearby businesses as well.We are trending well above national and state-wide averages for performance of our retail centers. o We just invested in a partnership with Placer in order to use consumer data to inform identification of target areas and sectors for recruitment and development opportunities in Tigard. 5. It would be helpful to see the planning projects in the scope of future development and what these projects might cost community members.What can be reduced and postponed? The Community Development department has a number of ongoing long-range projects related to future development.These projects include: o River Terrace 2.0 o Tigard HOME o Downtown Reimagined o Tigard Housing Plan There are also a backlog of other multi-year long-range projects that are slated to follow these projects: • State-Mandated Comprehensive Plan Update (5+years overdue) • State Housing Compliance Updates (overdue) • Public Infrastructure Standards Update (5+years overdue) • Tigard Triangle Refresh (due) Responses from Community Development Department • Sensitive Land Chapter Update (5+years overdue) • Urban Forestry Manual/Urban Forestry Plan Update (due) • Rate Study(overdue) The Comprehensive Plan Update alone is a massive project that will require several staff as well as a consultant team to complete. Each of the others involves at least an internal project team of 3+ people, and some involve hiring of outside consultants. In many cases if these state updates and requirements are not met,the City will be forced to apply state regulations, thereby removing our ability to apply policies that the community as prioritized. There is no consensus on how development impacts a city's tax revenue. A Cost of City Services (CCS) study is a large undertaking that requires retaining experts with specialized knowledge.The results are often inconclusive and can depend on how the study is framed and which methodology is applied. A meta-analysis of CCS studies published in 2009 suggests that the results of these studies are often more precise than they are accurate, statistically speaking. There seems to be a general suggestion that commercial development returns more in revenue than residential development; however the true relationship between these types of development is highly dependent on the specific circumstances of the subject city. 6. It would be helpful to see the proportion of external resources compared to internal resources for future planning projects (ie River Terrace 2.0, Downtown Reimagined,Tigard Home, and Housing Capacity Analysis, etc.) Responses from Community Development Department Project External Funding Resources Internal Contribution River Terrace 2.0 Metro: $846,950 (main project) Approximately 1.5 FTE Metro: S140,000 (TIF study) over three years DLCD: $207,379 Department of Energy: S118,610 Downtown ODOT (TGM Grant): $250.000 Approximately 0.75 FTE Reimagined over two years Tigard HOME Metro: $95,000 Approximately 1.2 FTE over two years Tigard Housing Plan DLCD: S190.000 Approximately 1.2 FTE over 18 months Much of the long-range planning work that the City is required to do requires support from multiple disciplines and involves several staff, with one project manager. As shown in the table above the use of staff planners allow the City to obtain need funds from our partners to achieve this goal. Not only do they provide a source of revenue for the city guide community conversations on how to direct future growth. 7. Asked for CD to talk about what would happen if CD loses FTE, due to future planning projects. Shift Library FTE loss into the Planning department of CD. The Community Development department functions currently on a lean staffing basis.With such a small department, we rely on seasoned professional planning staff and high- performing junior staff who can contribute across both the current development approval and long-range planning functions of the department. Junior staff also contribute to the long-range planning efforts as well as providing critical services to the development community. The reduction of one FTE has already been proposed for the department specifically in the Planning Division. The loss of additional FTE would have multiple impacts: o Slowing customer response and development approval times, resulting in costs to developers and homebuyers and dampening economic output. o Not complying with state-required land use deadlines due to lack of staffing, resulting in legal action against the city. Responses from Community Development Department o Canceling one or more current long-range projects, resulting in the loss of reimbursable funds and requiring repayment of funds already reimbursed from granting agencies, further impacting future general fund dollars. o Increasing the backlog of policy updates needed, including those to comply with new state laws, that result in the loss of the city's Home Rule authority to regulate development. 8. Development resource. RT 2.0 development resource.There is lore than during River Terrace 1.0, external consultants/builders helped to provide an additional FTE of support for planning and development. Is this something that's possible for River Terrace 2.0 and can you provide any information about how the FTE during River Terrace 1.0 was provided and what work they helped execute? The Community Development department has looked into the question of outside developers providing planning or building review for River Terrace. We can find no evidence in records of this practice and no staff with at least 15 years of tenure have any knowledge of this practice. For statutory compliance with the statewide planning goals, Metro's urban growth management functional plan, and the city's code, we would not recommend this approach as it constitutes a potential conflict of interest and puts the city at legal risk. Questions from Budget Committee Member Jeff Darland Debt Service Questions. 1) Water Debt Service. It appears as though debt service is exclusively paid for by fund 531 through transfer 57532: $7,206,346 q1: please provide allocation calculation used in initial LOT development showing excess capacity for development q2: why is Water SDC fund not contributing the amount required by ORS223? q3: please quantify historical gap since the Tigard began expensing interest. Response: Refer to the conversation and memo that was provided on 5/12/26 Question for Development: Question: What is the current staff turnover rate in the roles of inspectors (permitting) Response: The Engineering Division has four engineering techs who provide inspection services related to Engineering permits. This group has significant longevity with the City and the only turnover in the past few years was due to one retirement and one internal promotion within the Engineering Division. The Building Division has a very low turnover rate for inspectors. Building currently has a position open due to retirement but the average length of service for the remaining inspectors is nearly 10 years, with our inspection supervisor having 23 years of service. Question: What, if any, historical conversations have occurred regarding externalizing some permitting services Response: Outsourcing permitting services have not been evaluated in recent times. However, the city strives to provide quality and timely customer service and is currently having our processes and level of service evaluated by a consultant. The results of the customer surveys and consultant recommendations will provide insight into where we have gaps in service and how we can improve on any noted inefficiencies. Capital Improvement Questions: Question: CIP90129 - Police and Public Works Depart/Land Acquisition Predesign Why has, historically, the bulk of this been covered by the 530 - Water Fund. Amount close to $12 million. This appears to be predominantly capital or capital-related, and mostly not associated with existing water service. Response: Fund 530 is not restricted to operations and is being used for this project as a capital expense because the Water Division will operate out of the proposed new facility. Additionally, City Council passed an authorization of intent to repay with GO bonds for this land acquisition. Question: CIP29053 - Parks Maintenance It appears as though this is to related to capital acquisition for capacity increasing services. This appears to maintenance or "like for like" in terms of capacity. Confirm that it is acceptable under ORS 223.297-314, and Tigard's own policies Response: It is acceptable to use Fund 425 — Park SDC for maintenance per ORS 223.307. This major maintenance program would utilize the Reimbursement Fee component of the SDC. Question: CIP92072 - Cooper Creek Stabilization Q1: How much of the increase flow is due to infill construction (a.k.a, new development)? Please quantify or provide best existing model results. An appropriate apportionment to the SDC fund would seem appropriate. Please comment. Q2: Please justify the split with Sanitary Sewer Fund? Q3: Please justify the Parks SDC fund contribution? Response: CIP92073 —Copper Creek Stabilization has multiple funding sources as this project impacts the Park, Sanitary Sewer, and Stormwater Systems. The City's Stormwater Master Plan identified the need for this project as project #CIP 804 in the plan. The priority to deliver this project was advanced as the rate of erosion has increased since the time of developing the Master Plan and creating a threat for a sanitary sewer main break and possible loss of park and trail infrastructure. The increase in flow is primarily due to development that occurred prior to the current/modern stormwater management standards being in place. Question: CIP92077 - Park Strategic Acquisitions Q: Do I understand that this is an opportunistic fund? Has property been identified, or how has this value been estimate, in terms of what it would buy in acreage? It would seem that this might limit certain, desirable properties. What would the plan be if any opportunity exists that exceeds this? combine with 92078? Response: You are correct that this is an opportunistic project. The intent is to have funds set aside should property become available adjacent to existing parks. Without this program we may miss the opportunity to purchase property that would improve park operations when they are placed on the market for sale. This project is not intended to be coupled with CP92078 as that project is for future parks that are not yet developed and are in gap areas as defined by the Park and Recreation System Plan. To protect our ability to negotiate with a seller, we are not able to disclose specific properties and our valuation of them. Question: CIP92078 - Park - Acquisition / underserved. Q: I understand the intent of this, but with 92077, what limitations on acquisitions are placed if the two funds streams are combined? ,maybe combining with 92077 adds flexibility? Response: See response to CP92077—The City does not intend to combine the two projects. Question: CIP92082 - Ash Creek Wetland Acquisition Q: Confirm that upon transition of ownership to Tigard that this will fall under our local wetland inventory map as significant, and managed by CWS through the agreement on title 3? Response: City or Private ownership doesn't change the classification of the wetland, but the intent of the project is for CWS to complete a full wetland restoration, in accordance with their best practices for wetland restoration and management. The City will own the wetlands once the project is completed. Question: CIP92084 - Artificial Turf Replacement Q1: What level of chemical safety is implied with future projection? Does it take into account future possible limitations on rubber crumb (e.g., 6PPD, and associated risks with salmonids)? Q2: What are anticipated increases if expected to follow limits? Does supplier hold any liability after installation should regulations change? Response: The products used will be evaluated by the project delivery team during design to ensure they meet current standards at time of design and construction. Unknown future regulation changes cannot be factored into cost estimating and budgeting at this time as they are unknown. The City doesn't put liability on suppliers after installation associated with regulation changes that are unknown at time of contracting. Question: CIP97028 - Tigard Triangle Parks Q1: Confirm existing land already purchased Q2: is future funding for opportunistic acquisition, or for already identified properties? Response: The property was acquired by the City in FY2026. Rather than closing the CIP project upon purchasing the property, the same CIP number remains open through design and construction of the new park so that all project costs are accounted for in the same CIP number. No additional park land is anticipated to be purchased with this CIP. Question: CIP93062 - Leron /Tigard Trunk Sewer Replacement Q1: This is explicitly a capacity increasing capital project, according to description. As such, please confirm that using 500 - sanitary sewer fund is defendable under ORS223. Q2: Please provide capacity calculations and determined allocation of increased capacity Response: This project is identified as a need in the CWS East Basin 2019 Master Plan. The plan recommends further flow monitoring prior to implementing the project to verify the need for the project, and those evaluations are underway now. By agreement with CWS the City is responsible for delivering sanitary sewer projects and fund said projects for small diameter pipe projects such as this one. Regional SDCs from CWS and cost share between CWS and City would apply to larger pipe diameter projects. This project may be revised upon conclusion of the flow monitoring effort. The City's only funding mechanism for this project due to the proposed pipe size is Fund 500. Question: CIP93063 - Bonita Trunk Line Q: same questions as with 93062, albeit for future spending Response: Same response as CP93062. However, this project has larger pipe sizes and will have a cost share with CWS. Question: CIP94049 - Red Rock Creek Stabilization Q1: What method for cost allocation was used to determine new "capacity"? provide calculations Q2: Verify that expenditures comply with ORS223, with regards to funds 500/510 Response: The project scope of work and need is a result of the City's Stormwater Master Plan and further studied and refined in the City's Red Rock Creek Subbasin Strategy plan that was produced by CWS in partnership with the City. The subbasin strategy provides that the intent to fund the project is to use stormwater utility fees, sanitary sewer fees, and urban renewal funds for upfront construction costs. New development will have the option to pay a Regional Stormwater Management Charge (RSMC) in lieu of construction of on-site stormwater detention after these improvements are completed. The RSMC funds collected will be used to pay back the City a portion of the cost to implement the creek enhancement projects reflecting the development's reasonable share of such costs. Question: CIP94053 - Compliance/ Mitigation Bank Q1: Is this opportunistic? Or, where does the purchase of the 7 acres fit in timewise? Q2: What are the annual expenditures used for, specifically? Response: This project is not opportunistic as it is used to meet regulatory requirements that extend beyond when a capital project is closed out. The referenced mitigation bank for vegetated corridors is in design and land acquisition phase currently. Some of the specific items that this program funds are vegetation management, plant establishment, annual reporting requirements, and design services. Question: CIP94056 - Upper Red Rock Creek Stabilization / Enhancement Q: Same questions as with CIP94049 Response: See response to CP94049 Question: CIP94057 - 121 ave bridge/ Summer Creek Bank Q1: Presuming this will comply with Metro Titke 3, what is anticipated lifespan of stabilization method? Q2: What future increase in flows (and attribution) is being considered Response: The project design is complete and currently advertised for contractor bidding. The project had to go through a rigorous environmental due diligence process. IT will comply with all applicable standards set forth by the United States Army Corp of Engineers (USACE), Oregon Department of State Lands (DSL), Oregon Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ), Clean Water Services (CWS, and the City of Tigard. The anticipated life span of the wing walls being installed is 75 years. The Engineer of Record used the USACE's Hydrologic Engineering Center's River Analysis System (HEC-RAS) to determine that the proposed work will result in no-rise in the event of a 100-year flood. Question: CIP94059 - Aspen Ridge Drive Storm Line Q1: When did the problem begin? Q2: please put the flow issue in terms of timeline/development infill Response: City Operations & Maintenance staff brought it to the Engineering Division for assistance during this current fiscal year. It was evaluated as a possible project for our annual Stormwater Major Maintenance Program, but after the project manager completed the scope and cost estimating it was determined that this project is too large of an effort to fit the major maintenance program. Therefor a new CIP project is proposed. Question: CIP94060 - SW Beagle Court/ Storm Drain Q1: When was original swale installed? Q2: Cause of swale failure? Response: The as-constructed record drawings are dated 1999. The issue is due to stormwater discharge causing erosion and not a failed swale. Question: CIP95060 - Tigard Street/ Bridge Q: Relevance to the water fund? Response: The project scope of work includes work on the water system. Question: CIP95074 - McDonald Street Q: Relevance to water fund? Response: The project scope of work includes replacement and rehab of multiple water lines. Question: CIP95077 - Greenburg Road Q: Relevance of Water Fund? Response: The project scope of work includes rehab of an existing water line. Question: CIP95088 - Tigard Triangle Improvements Q: Source of "Other Revenue Sources" Response: The source is identified as Fund 945 — Urban Renewal Triangle Fund. Question: CIP96030 - 560-East Pressure Q: provide allocation calculations supporting SDC allocation Response: When the use of SDC dollars are determined, staff proposes funding for projects based on 1) use of eligible SDC funds, up to the maximum limits guided by the Water System Plan and Water SDC methodology 2) Funding availability. If SDC funding is not adequate, funding is proposed from other capital reserves, which includes utility rates. Question: CIP96063 - 560-West Pressure Q: provide allocation calculations supporting SDC allocation Response: When the use of SDC dollars are determined, staff proposes funding for projects based on 1) use of eligible SDC funds, up to the maximum limits guided by the Water System Plan and Water SDC methodology 2) Funding availability. If SDC funding is not adequate, funding is proposed from other capital reserves, which includes utility rates. Question: CIP96070 - ASR Expansion Feasibility Study Q: This is specifically directed to meet new demand. Why is the Water Fund relevant Response: Per the adopted Water SDC Methodology report, this project is eligible for Water SDC at a rate of 28%. Question: CIP96075 - LOT Expansion Q: why was water fund used historically for this, as it is exclusively for new capacity? Response: Staff will need additional time to determine the historical analysis of the use of water funds, but going forward, the intent and proposal is to use Water SDC's to fund this project as it is 100% related to growth. Question: CIP96076 - Reservoir 19 Q1: This seems primarily for new development, explain relevance of water fund Q2: Provide calculations supporting allocations between water fund and SDC Response: The long-term funding of this project is still under development. The proposed project only includes the first phase of the project, which is primarily siting feasibility. 100% of the project is related to growth. From a cash flow standpoint, SDC funds alone would not be adequate to fund this phase of the project. When the use of SDC dollars are determined, staff proposes funding for projects based on 1) use of eligible SDC funds, up to the maximum limits guided by the Water System Plan and Water SDC methodology 2) Funding availability.
