The meeting was held at Tigard City Hall in the Red Rock Creek Conference Room with a hybrid MS Teams option. 2. CONSIDER MINUTES The April 1, 2026, meeting Minutes were unanimously approved. 3. PUBLIC COMMENT Tigard resident Jim Strain expressed concern about a neighborhood meeting he attended and the development being proposed. Tiffany noted that because the proposal is still in the pre-application phase, there is no role for TTAC at this time. Members expressed interest in an informational session to better understand how proposed developments are evaluated through a transportation lens, including a few examples, so TTAC may be able to contribute to that process in the future. 4. SS4A LETTER OF SUPPORT Tiffany briefly reviewed the letter of support included with the agenda. Members unanimously supported Chair signature. 5. CITY COUNCIL GUIDING QUESTIONS Barrett shared sample questions aligned with the five E’s of the Council’s Community Promise, which were included in the agenda. Members will review these questions, and an online survey will be used to gather additional suggestions. 6. RIVER TERRACE 2.0 TRANSPORTATION PLAN Brittany reviewed the material included with agenda including the Transportation Policy Goals, Engagement Feedback & Priorities, Competing Priorities, City Council Feedback, Street Design Types, Collector A: Commercial Collector, Original Commercial Collector Design, Collector B: Mountainside Way, and Original Mountainside Way Design. Council requested that alternatives to two of the street designs, Collectors A (Commercial Collector) and B (Mountainside Way), be explored to reduce their footprint and cost to build. Brittany noted that the design for the Commercial Corridor is the widest at 108 feet and includes angled parking which increases the number of parking spaces and accommodates ADA parking better in some cases. River Terrace Blvd. is 110 feet wide as a comparison. The ground floor will be required to be for commercial use and any parking lots will be located behind the buildings. Numerous complaints have been TIGARD TRANSPORTATION ADVISORY COMMITTEE May 6, 2026 Page 2 of 2 received about the lack of parking in front of houses in the River Terrace 1.0 residential development areas so the forthcoming street designs in the city code for those roads will include parking in front of the houses while allowing space for driveways. The issue of on street parking was discussed at length and how to balance the needs of the different modes of transportation, not just automobiles. Members suggested using a combination of parallel and angled parking spaces in the commercial area, reducing the width of the street, and reducing the number of parking spaces along the street to improve business visibility and encourage alternative modes of transportation. Brittany noted that the Commercial Corridor design is the widest at 108 feet, incorporating angled parking to increase the number of spaces and improve ADA accessibility in some situations. For comparison, River Terrace Blvd. is 110 feet wide. The corridor will require ground-floor commercial uses, with parking lots located behind buildings. She also explained that the city has received numerous complaints about the lack of on-street parking in the River Terrace 1.0 development. As a result, upcoming residential street standards will include on-street parking in front of homes while still accommodating driveways. The group discussed on-street parking at length, focusing on how to balance the needs of multiple transportation modes, not just automobiles. Members suggested exploring a mix of parallel and angled parking in the commercial area, narrowing the street width, and reducing the number of on-street parking spaces to improve business visibility and encourage the use of alternative transportation modes. 7. FUTURE AGENDA TOPICS & TOUR Tiffany presented the survey results, noting that the survey will remain open to allow additional responses. She highlighted the topics garnering the most interest.. 8. NON-AGENDA ITEMS A. Shawne shared the Freedom Concepts website which builds accessible bikes for all abilities. He works with the company and the agency he works for has purchased ten of them. ODOT funding has been cut so it will take time before they are able to purchase additional bikes. B. Sarah presented the updated scooter safety handout, which now includes minor edits from Tiffany. Tiffany will bring the revised version with any member edits to the next meeting. If the group reaches consensus, she will submit the handout to the city’s Design and Communications Department for city branding, printing, and approval for citywide messaging. C. Michael noted that some attendees at the Council meeting were surprised to learn about the McDonald St. project. He contrasted this with the extensive outreach for the city’s Police and Public Works bond measure, which included numerous signs and door hangers. Tiffany emphasized that the goal is to reach as many community members as possible about the project and that outreach efforts are ongoing to keep residents informed.. 9. ADJOURNMENT The meeting adjourned at 7:55 p.m. Joe Patton, TTAC Meeting Secretary Michael Hendrickson, Chair
