ROLL CALL: Staff Present Jim Hendryx, Director of Economic and Development Services Don Dolenc, Associate Planner Jon Stuart, Assistant City Attorney Sign Focus Group Present Pete McCallum, City Council Mike Sumner, Case Automotive Teri Sunderland, General Manager, Woodburn Company Stores Chairperson Bandelow opened the workshop /meeting at 7pm. Vice - Chairperson Jennings led the Commissioners in the flag salute. Minutes Vice- Chairperson Jennings moved to accept the minutes of December 9, 2010 as written. Commissioner Piper seconded the motion, and it was unanimously approved. Business from the Audience There was none. Communication There was none. Workshop — Sign Amortization Bob Barman, Chevron Station owner, spoke to the Planning Commission and members of the Sign Focus Group about sign amortization in his home town of Lake Oswego. Several business owners there protested needing to bring their non - complying signs into compliance and took their cases to court. One owner went all the way to the 9 th Circuit Court. The Court handed down the decision that Lake Oswego did have a right to amortize. Barman approved the idea of a 10 -15 year sign amortization period, thus giving Planning Commission Meeting — January 27, 2011 Page 1 of 3 I businesses plenty of time to bring their signs into compliance. He suggested having a good publicity plan, using the Woodburn newspaper and the Chamber of Commerce to publicize the sign amortization policy time frame. Consistent communication, as well as a clear time countdown, is a good help meet in achieving compliance. A 2 tier system might work well, where signs over $5,000 (such as monument and pole signs), would be given a longer period of time to bring into compliance than signs under $5,000. Pete McCallum, City Councilor, noted that regular reminders to business owners could be helpful. Jim Hendryx, Economic and Development Services Director, gave a Power Point presentation to the group entitled, "Amortization of Nonconforming Signs ". The City Council passed a resolution on December 13, 2010, which initiated an amendment to the WDO sign regulations, adding sign amortization provisions. The Council asked the Planning Commission, with assistance from the Sign Focus Group, to make time -frame recommendations for sign amortization. Previous survey results indicate that the majority of Woodburn citizens feel that there should be a 3 -5 year time limit to bring all signs into compliance. Assistant City Attorney Jon Stuart discussed three cities with different amortization schedules; Keizer, Lake Oswego and Newberg. The Planning Commission and Sign Focus Group concentrated their efforts to 3 key questions: 1. Should there be an amortization period for non - conforming signs? 2. If so, what types of signs will be affected, and what zones should be included? 3. How long should the amortization period last? City Councilor McCallum noted that sign amortization is vital; otherwise sign compliance is unenforceable. Support for amortization was unanimous by both the Planning Commissioners and the Sign Focus Group members. Several people urged simplicity and enforceability. All types of signs are to be included in the amortization, though it was not yet decided whether to implement the 2 tier system Bob Barman suggested. A ten year amortization period was agreed upon by both groups, with a hardship provision added as an option for business owners who were having trouble meeting the deadline. All Woodburn zones would be included in the sign amortization process. Vice - Chairperson Jennings noted that it was important to let the business community know what is happening. There was a suggestion to ask the Chamber of Commerce be an outlet for that information. Planning Commission Meeting — January 27, 2011 Page 2 of 3 I Meeting — Items for Action A. Revisions to the Planning Commission by -laws, which included clarification of voting and election of officers, were discussed. Commissioner Piper made a motion to approve the changes, and Commissioner Jennings seconded it. The motion was unanimously approved. B. Commissioner Piper nominated Dick Jennings as new Chairperson of the Planning Commission, and then nominated Ellen Bandelow as Vice - Chair. Commissioner Corning made a motion to approve the changes. The motions were unanimously approved. Reports Hendryx gave an Urban Growth Boundary update. On January 12, 2011, the Land Conservation Development Commission (LCDC) met and approved the Woodburn UGB expansion by a 5 -1 vote. The proposal will go back for final approval in 60 days. Hendryx proposed that the Planning Commission hold a workshop /meeting on Thursday, February 24 to focus on the Hwy 99E Corridor project. In response to a question, he noted that ODOT has final say on improvements to the corridor, though the 99E Corridor Group will give input and suggestions. The new sign ordinance went into effect on Monday, January 24 2011. The Planning Department will be handing out 1 page sign summary flyers to businesses along 99E and 214.

Minutes Commissioner Corning moved to accept the minutes of January 27, 2011 as written. Commissioner Grigorieff seconded the motion, and it was unanimously approved. Business from the Audience There was none. Communication There was none. Workshop — 99E Jim Hendryx, Director of Economic and Development Services, gave a brief introduction to the topic being discussed in the workshop — the 99E Corridor Project. This commercial corridor has been developed to a certain extent over the years and has an important current and future role in the community. A corridor study was begun 6 -8 months ago to provide a comprehensive look at its state both today and in the future, and Planning Commission Meeting — March 24, 2011 Page 1 of 8 11 to help the City decide how it can best serve the businesses and property owners along 99E. The Citizen's Advisory Committee (CAC) was formed to help develop a plan to improve the corridor. This plan will ultimately be adopted by the Planning Commission and the City Council. The CAC has met twice so far, with the Planning Commission being represented at the meetings by PC Chair Dick Jennings. Two open houses have been held for 99E business and property owners, and were attended by approximately 20- 25 people each time. Frank Angelo, the lead consultant on the 99E Corridor Project, introduced himself and his team, and told the Planning Commission that the key objective of the project is to facilitate the revitalization of the corridor as a viable, safe and sustainable business district. The 20 year plan needs to be an expression of what the community wants. Some of the purposes of the corridor plan are: 1. To protect the long -term function and performance of 99E 2. To balance state and regional traffic demand with local traffic demand 3. To serve adjacent land uses in the corridor 4. To ensure state and local government make transportation and land use decisions together 5. To meet standards and policies in both the Oregon Highway Plan and the Woodburn Comprehensive Plan The Corridor Plan's study area includes the land and development' /2 mile on either side of the 99E highway. Major issues along the corridor include: 1. Economic development 2. Motor vehicle mobility and safety 3. Corridor aesthetics 4. Pedestrian and bicycle access safety 5. Business /property owner participation 6. Neighborhood connections 7. Property access Ellie Fiore, a member of the consultant team from Owens Cogan Owens, presented the vision statement for the corridor project. The overall goal for 99E is to create a safe, vibrant and sustainable business district that is easily accessible to shoppers and travelers by car or on foot. She requested feedback from the commissioners on the following questions: 1. What are the critical land use, transportation and other issues that need to be addressed? 2. How does the Planning Commission view the role of 99E in determining Woodburn's future transportation and land use patterns and economic development opportunities? 3. What are the desired outcomes and important statistics that the Planning Commission would like to see emerge through the corridor planning process? Planning Commission Meeting — March 24, 2011 Page 2 of 8 12 Chair Dick Jennings emphasized that improved lighting along Highway 99E is critical, especially within the developed commercial area. Chair Jennings noted that many businesses on the corridor are rented, and that both the business owners and the property owners need to understand what the potential impacts would be for any proposed changes. Commissioner Piper noted that the southern end of 99E is older than the northern end, and hasn't been improved in a very long time. It is important that the aesthetic quality of the corridor be improved, especially on the southern end, in order to promote economic growth in the corridor. Commissioner Piper noted, however, that it was important to avoid imposing overly prescriptive aesthetic requirements for private property, such as paint colors, as the businesses and their customers are diverse and have different preferences and needs. In response, Frank Angelo clarified that the corridor plan will not include detailed aesthetic requirements for private property down to the level of paint colors. Commissioner Piper stated that improving safety will be an essential part of plans for and improvements to the corridor. Commissioner Grigorieff expressed the need for sidewalks and better lighting along the corridor, and wants to be sure that there are enough lanes to accommodate traffic on the southern end of 99E. Commissioner Corning observed that that community outreach should be a top priority. Frank Angelo noted that as alternatives for the corridor are developed and the project becomes more tangible, public outreach will become even more important. He also noted that there is a project website ( www.woodburn99e.com ), which provides an additional way for people to obtain information and provide comments on the project. Frank Angelo presented Technical Memorandum #1, which is a review of relevant plans and policy documents! In response to a question from Chair Jennings, Frank Angelo explained that the Highway 99E Corridor Plan will look ahead to the year 2035, even though the City's Comprehensive Plan and other earlier City planning documents extend through 2020. The planning team will ensure that these are made consistent when the Corridor Plan is adopted. Jim Hendryx noted that the plans and policies summarized by Frank Angelo in some cases include competing objectives, such as providing for through - traffic and serving businesses. He noted that these policies will become more important as the alternatives for the corridor are developed, as they will shape the range of options available. The consultant team's presentation to the Planning Commission, which includes a summary of Technical Memorandum #1, as well as summaries of the other Technical Memoranda presented and background information on the project, is available on the project's website: http:// www .woodbum99e.com /mectings.html Planning Commission Meeting — March 24, 2011 Page 3 of 8 13 Commissioner Piper asked how much flexibility was left once all the policies are addressed, and how the community would know where the regulatory framework left opportunities to make choices. Frank Angelo responded that the corridor plan itself will become the guiding policy for the corridor when it is adopted, and that there are opportunities to modify some of the rules as part of the planning process, as long as it is done cooperatively with the City, ODOT, and other regulatory bodies. John Bosket of DKS gave an overview of Technical Memorandums 2 and 3. Technical Memorandum #2 describes the current access conditions. These accesses (or driveways) have an effect on corridor safety and mobility, as well as accessibility in general. They are also the customer entrance for the business, and there may be opportunities to improve the customer experience by making it easier to find the entrance or to get from one business to another. The goal now, after doing a great deal of research (detailed in Technical Memorandum #2) is to decide what methods, or "tools" could be used to achieve the best results along the corridor. He discussed several possible tools, such as two businesses sharing a driveway, or interparcel circulation, where adjacent businesses provide a connection between their parking lots so cars don't have to get back on the highway to go between businesses. Commissioner Piper noted that the number of existing access points might constitute a problem and that there would be a need for shared parking. John Boskett responded that the plan would need to find a balance between safety, mobility, and access to businesses. He also clarified that most access management solutions would be implemented through policies that would govern future development and redevelopment in the corridor, rather than being imposed on existing development today. Chair Jennings noted that it is important to keep the peace between different property owners to implement some of these tools. John Boskett then presented a summary of Technical Memorandum #3, which deals with existing and predicted future traffic conditions. John noted that at present: 1. Sidewalks are needed between Lincoln and Cleveland Streets, with extensions southward 2. Obstructions are common 3. Bicycle facilities are needed from Lincoln to Cleveland Streets 4. More pedestrian and bicycle crossings are needed 5. Amenities, such as pullouts and bus stops, need to be considered John reported that the CAC had raised several issues at their last meeting similar in nature to the Commissioners' comments, including: 1. More illumination is needed 2. The speed limit is too high 3. Congestion along 99E is far worse during regional events or highway incidents * The consultant team's presentation to the Planning Commission, which includes a summary of Technical Memoranda 2 and 3, is available on the project's website: http: / /www.woodbum99e.com /meetings.html Planning Commission Meeting — March 24, 2011 Page 4 of 8 14 4. Safe pedestrian crossings are important 5. More lanes are needed further south John noted that there are several projects planned for the corridor already, including improvements for the intersection of 214 and 99E and a project to improve the visibility of the median there, and a signal at the intersection of 99E and Cleveland. He also noted that the addition of a two -way left turn lane south of Cleveland would improve traffic mobility in that area, and that a traffic management plan could help handle traffic for special events and when 99E is used as a detour for I -5. Technical Memoranda 4 and 5 were discussed by Allison Wildman of SERA Architects. She told the Commissioners that the character of development along Highway 99E changes along the corridor, and can be thought of in 3 zones: the north, which has good landscaping, road improvements and businesses which are set back from the highway; the center, where driveways and developments are closer, and the road is still fairly wide; and the south, which is made up of smaller shops, as well as trees, farms and largely undeveloped land along the highway, and where the roadway is narrower. Commissioner Piper noted that there are isolated pieces of property on the east side of the highway that are not within City limits, and that policies affecting those properties would require coordination with the county or annexation to the City. Frank Angelo noted that Marion County is represented on the Technical Advisory Committee and is participating in the project. Allison Wildman described site conditions along the corridor — generally parking is located in front of the building, but there are various configurations, from small properties with one row of parking to large properties with large parking lots. She also noted that while there are limited opportunities for parallel routes to Highway 99E, there are opportunities for non - motorized connections from some neighborhood streets to the corridor. Allison then described various tools that could be utilized to improve the corridor, such as:' 1. Marked pedestrian crossing treatments at intersections, with signals that can help pedestrians cross more safely 2. Special pavers that can be used to increase visibility to motorists 3. Pedestrian refuge islands (a protected "break" in the center of the roadway, to allow bikes and pedestrians to cross in 2 separate actions) 4. Bulb -outs — an extension of the sidewalk into the vehicular right -of -way 5. Sidewalk design to create an attractive, pedestrian- friendly area 6. Buffered sidewalks, with a 4 -6 foot buffer zone of trees and landscaping, which will beautify the corridor and buffers pedestrians from traffic * The consultant team's presentation to the Planning Commission, which includes a summary of Technical Memorandum #4, is available on the project's website: http: / /www.woodburn99e.com /meetings.html t A handout illustrating the tools was provided at the meeting. This handout can be found on the project's website: http: // www .woodburn99e.com /meetings.htmi. A more detailed explanation of the tools is included in Technical Memorandum #5, available from the project's website: http://www.woodburn99e.com/documents.html#techmemo Planning Commission Meeting — March 24, 2011 Page 5 of 8 15 7. Bike lanes (5 -6 feet wide and well- marked) 8. Pedestrian - oriented streetlights - lower lights that illuminate the walkway for pedestrian safety 9. Gateways (There are many types of possible gateways, such as statue art, archways, buildings, etc.) The Commissioners then gathered around a 10 foot map of Highway 99E and made location - specific recommendations for improvements. Their comments were recorded on the map and will inform the draft alternatives that the consultant team develops in the next phase of the project. After some discussion of specific issues on the corridor, the Commissioners returned to their seats and Allison asked for their feedback on each type of tool she presented. She first asked for comments about pedestrian crossings. The Commissioners' comments included: 1. Pedestrian refuges are a good idea to improve safety, the question is how many and where they should be located. 2. In siting pedestrian refuges, the consultants should look at what the attractions are that people are trying to cross to get to. If these are too dispersed, crossings will be dispersed and pedestrian refuges may not be very helpful since people won't walk out of their way to use one. People cross illegally even near signals to avoid going out of their way. 3. One option would be to include just a few refuges (e.g. two between Hardcastle and Safeway, one between Hardcastle and Lincoln, two or three south of Lincoln). Another option would be to locate one every few blocks — build enough so that they are convenient much of the time and they get used. 4. Specific locations mentioned where crossings are more concentrated include the Jehovah's Witness church between Hardcastle and Safeway, a laundromat at Cleveland, and near Gary's Autobody. 5. The type of crossing that is used on Lancaster with flashing lights works well. 6. The people who are most likely to need the crossings may not be represented at the meetings, but need to address their needs. The next topic was sidewalks, bike lanes, and streetscape features. The Commissioners' comments included: 1. There should be continuous sidewalks from north to south. 2. Utility poles blocking the sidewalk are a common problem in the corridor. It would be helpful to underground the utilities and get the poles out of the way in the north as well as the south part of the corridor. 3. ODOT will require bike lanes, so there is no choice on whether to include them. 4. Buffered sidewalks would be preferable, but there isn't enough room to fit them within the existing right -of -way, so it will be a question of trade -offs and how much impact there would be to properties and businesses. Planning Commission Meeting — March 24, 2011 Page 6 of 8 16 5. Hasn't ODOT changed their policies on "curb- tight" sidewalks? (The consultant team clarified that while ODOT policy now has a preference for buffered sidewalks, curb -tight sidewalks are still acceptable.) 6. What is the right -of -way needed to accommodate all these features, including sidewalks, bike lanes, etc.? (The consultant team responded that the roughly 90 foot right -of -way that currently exists on the north end of the corridor represents roughly the minimum to accommodate four travel lanes, a center turn lane, sidewalks, and bike lanes.) 7. Don't add garbage cans, benches, etc. along the corridor — they create a service and maintenance issue. 8. Bus stop improvements are a nice idea, but are not a priority. If transit service is not going to increase, it's not worth investing in the stops unless there is special funding for it from another source. There are some locations where improved stops may be more worthwhile, such as near Key Bank and Lincoln. 9. Reducing the number of lanes on Highway 99E south of Lincoln may create traffic problems — it's already busy in the afternoons. The next topic was multi -use trails and bicycle and pedestrian connectivity. The Commissioners' comments included: 1. Consider off - street bicycle /pedestrian paths. 2. A bike trail was proposed through Woodburn that would go all the way to Aurora. 3. There is an existing footpath to the Young Street Grocery, but it crosses the railroad. The next topics discussed were site development and zoning. The Commissioners' comments included: 1. Shared parking may be needed. 2. Putting parking behind the building and to the side may be good, but need to keep options open for developers. 3. Some requirements in the Woodburn Development Ordinance promote buildings set back from the street. Goodwill, which was built recently, has its entrance oriented to the parking lot rather than the sidewalk. 4. Many lots are too shallow to redevelop if the right -of -way is expanded. 5. If any rezoning of existing residential neighborhoods is proposed as part of an alternative, a lot more outreach will be needed to those neighborhoods. The next topic discussed was access management. The Commissioners' comments included: 1. Access consolidation is most important, but also most challenging, in the core area of the corridor. 2. Existing opportunities for cross -over easements were mentioned, including between Bank of America and Linda's, and between Do It Best and Los Cabos, 3. Property owners get territorial — if they aren't getting along, they will have conflict over shared access or shared parking. Planning Commission Meeting — March 24, 2011 Page 7 of 8 17 4. Lot consolidation or land assembly may be appropriate at the intersection of 99E and Young. 5. The community is not willing to consider medians. They should not be included in the plan. Frank Angelo closed the workshop, reminding everyone watching on live television that this was a part of various preliminary discussions and that no firm decisions have been made concerning the Highway 99E corridor. Meeting Sign standards have been updated, and a staff member is going from business to business in Woodburn, educating owners about the new sign standards and handing out informative flyers. The City Attorney is presently working on the best time interval for sign amortization. The next Planning Commission meeting /workshop will take place on Thursday, April 28 tH Adjournment Commissioner Jennings made a motion to adjourn the meeting.

BOARD REPORT Friends of the Library Report — John Hunter The Friends of the Library have changed their library discard vendor to "Better World Books ". This company has a web - portal that gives Judy the ability to scan a book into their system and it immediately lets her know whether or not to send the book. John also reported that the "Book Shop" corner brings in revenue of $100 -$150 a month. 7. NEW BUSINESS Public Bulletin Board Policy — John Hunter At the annual Oregon Library Association conference John learned about limited public forums. The library currently has two bulletin boards that the community uses. John has drafted a new policy that once approved by the Board will be translated and posted on each of the Library bulletin boards which will then be monitored by library staff or volunteers. Phyllis McKean /JD Mitchoff — Motion to accept the new Public Bulletin Board rules. The motion passed unanimously. Page 1 of 3 19 Bulletin Board Policy The bulletin boards located within the Woodburn Public Library are available, as space allows, for the posting of announcements promoting educational, cultural, and social programs and services in Woodburn and the surrounding community. Priority will always be given to events sponsored by the Library, the city of Woodburn, and /or Friends of the Woodburn Public Library Commercial advertisements and materials offering goods and services for sale by individuals will not be displayed. The Library reserves the right to refuse to post announcements, posters, pamphlets or exhibits that in its judgment do not meet the above criteri a. Acceptance of materials for display does not imply approval or disapproval by the Library of the ideas or opinions expressed. Limits may be set on the length of time an item may be displayed and on the size of a display. Generally, items will be posted no more than two weeks prior to an event. Items for the bulletin boards shall be given to library staff at the circulation desk for posting. Approved postings will be identified with a unique label that shows the posting's expiration date Library staff or a specified volunteer shall post and remove all notices from the bulletin boards. Library staff, or a specified volunteer, will have the responsibility for monitoring the bulletin boards and have the authority to remove items that do not meet the criteria set by the Library Board. Review of Open Hours — John Hunter John gave a brief history of library open hours; May 22, 1991 reduction of hours due to budget cuts; July 1994 increased hours; Dec 1994 open on Sundays for 2 hours as a 6 month experiment; September 1995 Sunday hours became permanent; Sept 1998 Monday hours began; August 1999 Seven day service which began Sept 13, 1999. As times and trends change, the Library must change also. In the last eighteen months, there have been significant changes due to John reviewing library operations and efficient use of budgeted money, making necessary changes of, re- organizing staff positions, increasing collection material; moving services and collection locations to better serve patrons, improved technology trends (e- books, WiFi, GALE databases) and updating building policies. Now, it is time to review scheduling and open hours. In this process, John developed several statistical spreadsheets comparing the 1 '/2 years which included; days of week, average per day, open hours, visitors per hour and the comparable variance. He then explained the spreadsheets and highlighted some interesting points to the Library Board. The final analysis of the collected data gave him the validation that the Library is operating effectively and changes in operation or hours were not needed at this time Music in the Park 2011 — John Hunter John gave the Library Board a printout showing Music in the Park expense /revenue numbers for this year's concert series and a list of scheduled bands. He pointed out that because of the seasonal daylight changes in late August, there will be 8 concerts this year July through August. Discussion took place on the difficulty of city employees asking for donations and asked Friends of the Library to help secure sponsorships for this well attended community event. Page 2 of 3 20 8. MANAGER REPORTS January - March Statistics — John Hunter John gave the Library Board printouts of statistics for the months of January, February and March. The three areas that John pointed out were; Collections — 15% less; Services — Library Visit, circulation and transactions - all up; Interlibrary Loans lent and borrowed - all up. Discussion took place comparing circulation, technology use and other services the library provides compared to door count. Discussion also took place on the use of GALE database that patrons can now access from home and if that may contribute to circulation numbers. John is motivated to increase circulation with a goal of 200,000 a year. He shared that the Deeda Chamberlain's Summer Reading Program has over 500 kids signed up and thanks to the Ready to Read grant, this program is fully funded. John complimented the circulation staff on their hard work in coordinating all the interlibrary material. He also shared that Woodburn is one of the few libraries in the Chemeketa Cooperative Regional Library Service (CCRLS) that has seven day service. Phyllis McKean pointed out that the Library notices on WCAT were very informative. 9. FUTURE BOARD BUISNESS Next scheduled meeting is July 13, 2011 10.

NEW BUSINESS Immanuel Lutheran Church Project Jim gave a brief history of the proposed project that Immanuel Lutheran Church has envisioned. He then introduced Terri Berkey- Gonzalez, representative from Immanuel Lutheran Church, who showed a PowerPoint slide of the proposed site concept plan. Terri explained that approximately five years ago, the church purchased 8 acres at Evergreen Rd and Linfield Ave. The church then hired an architectural firm which developed a concept plan incorporating their idea of a new church building, but also outdoor recreational spaces that would be available for public use. She shared that the church is not in a position to start construction on the church building, but they wanted to get the project going and has $210,000 to start the project with a pre - building phase. This first phase would include a gravel parking area, soccer field, walking paths, and landscaping. Talks within the church led them to the idea of partnering with the city to help with operating the soccer field, recreational features, landscaping maintenance and water for irrigation, all while allowing the Page 1 of 4 22 City of Woodburn Recreation and Park Board Minutes rc April 12, 2011 • 6:30 p.m. j ODBUR — ��` VV 1V City to utilize the outdoor recreational features for public use. She stated that this project would be self - funded with grants and future fundraising. The Church will vote on this plan on May 8 and if passed, they would like to start the first phase of this project along with a city partnership. Jim stated that this area, south of Wal -Mart, has grown dramatically in recent years, and as the Parks and Recreation Master Plan notes, is badly in need of parkland. In fact, of the three new park locations recommended by the Master Plan, this area is noted as the highest priority. This project would be made even more valuable if the City were able to eventually acquire the adjacent six acre parcel immediately to the east. The combination of these two sites could make for a very nice neighborhood park at some point in the future. Discussion took place on NRPA standards for park size and whether this would meet the city's need in future park acreage and potential grant opportunities. After the discussion, the board unanimously agreed to support the development of a "joint use agreement ". 7. DIVISION REPORTS FROM THE DEPARTMENT Aquatics — Jim Row Jim reported that they are now into the third month on the "Aquatic Center Turnaround Project ". He gave the Board a copy of the new Spring Aquatic Program brochure that shows the new marketing approach and modest program changes. They are currently working on the Summer Aquatic Program brochure that will be the kick -off of all the new expanded dynamic program opportunities. While still monitoring the finances, Jim found that revenues dropped off January through February but was back up in March. The city expects a 50% cost recovery from the Aquatic Center in next fiscal year's budget. Within the next month, modifications in the lobby and reception area will take place. Discussion took place on the resurfacing project, future cost recovery expectations and possible building expansion that would give additional space for dry -land exercises and classrooms. Jim addressed Board concerns about patronage decline, fee increase and pool temperature. He replied that the decline in patron usage was expected during this phase of the project, but he expects the numbers to increase once the summer programs start; for those having difficulties with new fees, he encouraged them to fill out the Scholarship form available at the front desk; the temperature is being monitored daily and is currently at 83 degrees but they are trying to find the ideal temperature for all uses of the pool. Recreation — Stu Spence Youth Sports — T -Ball is underway with 105 participants this year. Adult Sports — Men's Spring League has 24 teams participating and generates revenue for the city.

Parks and Facilities — Jim Row Centennial Park The construction contract still includes landscape maintenance until the end of May. Jim stated that the park is in high use and staff is looking forward to a busy summer season and the Dog Park remains very popular. Mill Creek Greenway Project Jim reported that as soon as the weather breaks the contractor will be back to complete the gravel pathways. Also, Public Works is building the signage for the project and an Eagle Scout will paint and install them. It was suggested that the Eagle Scout come to a meeting to report, show pictures on the project when the project is complete. Discussion took place on the winter wet conditions and how the creek water is breaching the bank along the pathway. Wyffels Park Jim updated the Board on the Settlemier Park boundary dispute issue, and how that is holding up the approval of our Land and Water Conservation Fund grant for the Wyffels Park Playground project. Discussion took place on master plans, vision process, current and future projects, park development and maintenance and how important it is to stay mindful of how tax and grant dollars are being spent so that the community would receive the greatest long term benefit. 8.

Russell, Chief of Police SUBJECT: Police Department Enabling Ordinance RECOMMENDATION It is recommended the City Council enact the Ordinance affirming the existence of the Woodburn Police Department, providing for the operation of the department according to State Law, and acknowledging the duties and responsibilities of the Police Chief. BACKGROUND The Woodburn Police Department and the office of Police Chief are identified in the Woodburn City Charter and Ordinances. However, upon comprehensive review there is no specific detail on the scope of department operations or reference to the enabling Oregon State Statutes. Despite this, the Department's legal standing is well documented in State Law and City Ordinance, all of its officers are fully sworn and certified under law, it conducts all of its business in accordance with City policy and budget, and the Department has faithfully discharged its duties nearly continuously over the past 120 years. DISCUSSION During the course of our recent accreditation process it was brought to our attention that there was not a clear reference enabling or acknowledging the existence and operation of the Police Department contained in the City Charter or Ordinances. This is not a critical legal need as these are already well established in Oregon Revised Statutes. However, the proposed ordinance does serve to establish an important continuity of authority and function between the elected body, the City Administration, and the Police Department. The proposed ordinance encompasses the information, duties, and responsibilities that the Oregon Accreditation Alliance hopes to see in such a document, and are based upon the current job description for the Police Chief.

Russell, Chief of Police SUBJECT: Authority to apply for 2011 COPS Police Officers Funding Grant RECOMMENDATION City Council authorizes staff to make application for a Police Officer Position under the 2011 COPS Hiring Grant. BACKGROUND The ability of the Woodburn Police Department to staff and maintain Police Officer positions is crucial to the Department's ability to provide timely and effective service to the citizens of The City of Woodburn. Staffing levels are a perennial topic of discussion as we see increased population and commensurate levels of crime. However, additional staff is expensive, takes large amounts of training and supervision time at the front end, and therefore gains in service levels and crime reduction can take substantial time to materialize. For these reasons the Department has sought high levels of computerization, maintained a flat organization, and strategically deployed our resources in order to maximize the number of officers on the street. Currently the Department maintains a level of 1.26 officers per 1000 citizens, slightly off the average of 1.5 for the Western U.S. In the past we have utilized grant positions to raise our staffing levels. Previous COPS (Community Oriented Policing Services Office of the US Department of Justice) programs have proved beneficial for the City of Woodburn including the COPS FAST grants of the 1990's which provided three additional police officer positions. As well as the COPS in Schools grant, this provided our current SRO (School Resource Officer) position. All of these grants provided for three year funding followed by a requirement that the City maintain the position for at least 12 months. Through careful planning and management all of these positions were eventually absorbed into the Department's budget at the appropriate time and are maintained to this day. This process allowed for additional police services to be in place and operating well before the City had to begin paying for them. Agenda Item Review: City Administrator x_ City Attorney _x Finance 41 Mayor and City Council May 9, 2011 Page 2 DISCUSSION On May 2, 2011 the Office of Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS) announced the opening of their 2011 competitive grants process for the COPS Hiring Program. The grant process will be completed on May 25, 2011 and all grant applications must be received by that time. The grants will provide one billion dollars in funding to assist in the hiring and rehiring of additional police officers by local governments. There is no local match required however, the funding will be based on current entry level salary and benefits of the grantee agency. The grants will pay for 100% of the entry level salary and benefits for 36 months for newly hired, full time, sworn, law enforcement officer positions. All such hired positions must be retained for a minimum of 12 months after the conclusion of the grant. During our current budget process it has been determined that the FY 2011-2012 Department budget would be insufficient to fund an additional full time position. The Department firmly believes that all reasonable efforts should be made to work on bringing department staffing closer to the 1.5 officers per thousand citizens level. The citizens of Woodburn have certain expectations of the level of performance of their police department, and these expectations can only be met through proper staffing levels and the availability of police manpower when they call upon us for service. Yet we are faced with our statutory requirement that the City of Woodburn draft a balanced budget. The COPS hiring grant provides an opportunity to increase staffing during difficult financial times without placing a major burden on the current budget. It allows a police officer position to be brought in earlier than the normal course of budget growth would allow and assures that at the end of the grant there will be enough population and fiscal growth within the City to support the position. FINANCIAL IMPACT In year one the grant will provide approximately $80,000 towards the position and the City's share will be $0. In year two the grant wilt again provide $80,000 towards the position and due to the agreement with the WPA and projected health insurance costs the City's share will be approximately $7,000. In year three the grant will again provide $80,000 towards the position and due to the agreement with the WPA and projected health insurance costs the City's share will be approximately $ 12,000. Over the three year grant period the COPS Office will have provided a total of approximately $240,000 towards the position and the City of Woodburn will have provided a total of $19,000. For the fourth year the City's cost to absorb the position would be approximately $92,000. 42
