Through our partnership with Woodburn Together, we are able to offer the Teen Scene program for middle

Communities Support program as administered by the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquence,
A major part of this grant is the formation ofa Woodburn Youth Council. This council will consist of seven
high school students from Woodburn High, These individuals will help to shape many of the activities, rules
and policies that will govern the program. In addition, the youth council will provide leadership training to not
only themselves but to the middle school students that they will mentor as well,
We conducted interviews last week of those high school students that submitted an application form. We have
attached their applications to this memorandum for your review. Our interview team has ranked them in order
of how they presented themselves in the interview and application process. The outcomes are as follows:
Rank Name
1 Givorgy Kraskoff

above be appointed to the Woodburn Youth Council in accordance with our grant application, The youth
council members will begin work immediately in order to allow the program to begin on February I, 2003,
The terms of their appointment should run until September 30, 2003.

Mayor Jennings stated that, since this was his last meeting in which he will be presiding
as Mayor, he would be changing the order of the agenda.
0060 PUBLIC HEARING: CONTINUATION OF HEARING ON SUBDIVISION
APPLICATION NO. 02-03 (WOODBURN CREST ESTATES MOBILE HOME
PARK).
Mayor Jennings declared the continuation ofthe public hearing open at 7:04 p.m..
Recorder Tennant read the land use statement required under ORS Chapter 197.
For the record, Mayor Jennings stated that he is not related to, nor ever met, the applicant,
Jerry Jennings.
Director Mulder stated that this is a proposal to convert the existing Woodburn Crest
Estates Mobile Home Park into a 45-10t subdivision. The property is located at the
southeast comer of June Way and Highway 211 and is zoned in a multi-family residential
district. He stated that the Oregon 2001 Legislature had adopted a new statute (ORS
92.830 to 92.845) that would generally require the City to approve any application to
subdivide a mobile home park, notwithstanding local subdivision regulations, which were
adopted under the previously existing state law. This new law limits the City's discretion
and, in this case, infrastructure concerns needed to be addressed which is why the staff
has negotiated a proposed Subdivision Conversion Implementation Agreement with the
applicant. The Planning Commission did hold a public hearing on this issue and the
Commission did recommend a denial of the application. However, the applicant, city
staff, and respective legal counsels did enter into discussions on how the application
Page I - Council Meeting Minutes, November 25, 2002

, I + J
T

READING
could be approved. This was based on a desire of the applicant to address the practical
considerations that staff had raised throughout the process and on a perception that a
majority of the Planning Commission appeared to be in favor of allowing the conversion
to go ahead if these practical considerations and technical issues could be addressed, The
practical considerations primarily relate to the disposition of the infrastructure system
within the existing mobile home park and it relates to the number of lots that would be
allowed in an approval. The Planning Commission had previously approved a 40-10t
mobile home park and this proposal is for a 45-10t subdivision. The proposed agreement
would allow for 43-10ts in order to compensate the applicant for upgrading the
infrastructure within the mobile home park to meet city standards. The applicant has
agreed to the proposal which would bind them to compliance of certain conditions and
complete various improvements. City staff feels that this proposed agreement adequately
addresses staff's concerns regarding the conversion to a subdivision and, with this
agreement, staff believes that the City Council is now in a position to approve the
application under the new State statute if they so desired.
Councilor Bjelland questioned if staff new how many other conversions have taken place
since this statute has been in effect.
Director Mulder stated that he is aware of one in Donald and one in Salem.
Councilor McCallum questioned if all aspects of this project are now standard for a
subdivision.
Director Mulder stated that the applicant has agreed that, before the City will approve a
final plat which can be recorded and creates the lots, the provisions of the agreement must
be met.
Councilor McCallum questioned if the Planning Commission had taken another formal
vote following the original denial.
Director Mulder stated that Commission minutes reflect that a majority of the
Commission expressed a desire to allow the conversion if staff s concerns and the legal
issues could be addressed. No formal action was made by the Commission to change the
original decision from a denial.
Councilor McCallum also questioned if the proposed agreement is adopted, would it bind
the Council in the future to allow future conversions provided that standards are met.
City Attorney Shields stated that each case will be looked at individually but one case
may have some relevance to future cases. He stated that provisions within this statute do
not include certain subdivision law that would normally be applicable and an
implementation agreement seemed to be the best method of making this proposal
workable. Future cases may have some similarity to this case but each application still
needs to be looked at separately.
Administrator Brown indicated that staff would like to have future requests be treated
similarly, however, it may not be possible in all cases. This particular case has given the
City a little more latitude in negotiating some of the improvements than what the City
Page 2 - Council Meeting Minutes, November 25, 2002

may be looking at in some of the older more established mobile home parks in the City.
Councilor Bjelland stated that it appears that the City is accepting responsibility to
maintain the water system and the sanitary sewer system whereas the streets would
remain as private streets and the homeowners association would be responsible for their
maintenance,
Councilor Figley stated that she was pleased to see that the developers were asked to
submit a copy of the Homeowner's Association agreement and the CC&R's. She also
hoped that the documents were clear on the face of them to the homeowners that they are
responsible for some of the infrastructure and, ifit does not meet city standards, the City
will not responsible for making improvements that will bring the infrastructure up to City
standards.
Councilor McCallum questioned if there has been a cost to the City on this application
other than staff time.
Administrator Brown stated that the only cost to the City as of this date has been staff
time and staff has tried to engineer this proposal in a way to not incur a cost to the City
and to try and minimize the cost to the homeowners.
1078 John Hinkstaff, attorney with Ramis, Crew, Corrigan, & Bachrach representing applicant
Jerry Jennings, reiterated that this proposal is a conversion of a mobile home park to a
subdivision, therefore, the infrastructure approved by the City previously worked well for
a mobile home park but does not necessarily work well for a subdivision. His firm has
negotiated with City staff the conversion agreement and the tenants were very
appreciative of the opportunity to become homeowners. He felt that there was assurance
that the public standards would be met for the water and sewer, and the street would
remain as a privately maintained road. Therefore, they believe the concerns of the
Planning Commission and staff have been met. They appreciated the cooperation of staff
and requested the Council to follow the recommendation of staff in approving this
proposed agreement.
Councilor Bjelland questioned how many lots were currently occupied within the subject
property.
It was noted that there are 12 lots currently occupied.
1306 No other comments were received from the audience on this proposal.
Mayor Jennings declared the public hearing closed at 7:23 p.m..
Councilor Nichols stated that he is satisfied with the proposal since the applicant has
agreed to the provisions asked for by the staff.
Councilor Figley stated that the City is tied to statutory requirements and this subdivision
will have sub-standard infrastructure since it was originally designed as a mobile home
park. However, the public will not have to pay for the infrastructure improvements
required as a part of this agreement.

Councilor McCallum expressed concerns for the future especially since Homeowner's
Association and CC&R's are not always followed, He appreciated the staffs work on
this project and in helping the developer and owners of this park.
Councilor Bjelland stated that there have been problems with mobile home parks when in
a rental situation which is why the state may have responded in the way that is outlined in
the statute. He felt that the negotiated agreement is probably making the best out of the
situation and it is probably in the best interest of the residents where they have an
opportunity to own their lot as opposed to being potentially faced with increasing fees for
space rental.
Councilor Sifuentez agreed with the comments made by Councilor Figley and felt that
staff did a good job in developing a resolution to this matter.
Councilor Chadwick agreed with Councilor Bjelland in that people who own their home
will more likely take better care of their property thereby raising the standards.
Mayor Jennings stated that the City is required to follow state law requirements, however,
the negotiated agreement will establish a set of standards that other developers requesting
conversion will also have to meet in the future.
Administrator Brown stated that it may be appropriate for the City to discuss this issue
with city officials from other areas to see if they are willing to approach our legislative
delegations to ask them to take another look at this statute since it is difficult to
implement.

2241 Preston Tack, 2197 Camelia Way, had attended the Mayor's Roast on November 15th and
he suggested that a repeat performance be held by the comedy team of Russell and
Shields.
2364 Nancy Kirksey, 1049 McKinley, stated that she had made a promise on Veteran's Day at
Belle Passi Cemetery that she would write a letter to the Editor of the local newspaper
encouraging citizens to sign a petition that would keep Veteran's Day separate from
Election Day. She supports the beliefs ofthe Benevolent Order of Elks and the Veterans
groups that combining the Day, even though it would occur only once every four years,
would diminish the sacrifice that the Veteran's have made for the protection of our
freedom. She read the resolution drafted by the Elks which will be published in the local
newspaper and she encouraged everyone to go on the website and ask that House Bill 62
be defeated.
Mayor Jennings stated that he had a copy of the resolution and he is offended that anyone
would want to demean the practice that this country has had in place since 1918. He
asked that the Council give some consideration between now and the next meeting as to
whether or not the Council is willing act on that resolution and forward a copy of it to our
congressional delegation.

Farmworker Housing Development Corporation (FHDC). The total project cost is
estimated at $1.2 million, The Council had previously authorized the execution of an
agreement with FHDC that addressed the relationship that the City would have with
FHDC during the construction period and during the next five years under which the
grant provisions would apply to the City, In order for the project to move forward, it is
necessary to have a Trust Deed executed which would take security from that property
that will be built upon and puts in the City's name for the period of five years. Once the
Trust Deed is adopted, then the next step would be to let the bid award for the
construction work. There were a number of issues that needed to be worked through
before the Trust Deed could be brought before the Council for consideration. He
reviewed his staff report which listed a number of steps that staff has taken to ensure that
the City's liability and risks have been minimized. It was also noted that the architect has
been asked to sign a partial waiver of construction lien agreement to insure that there are
no further outstanding encumbrances arising from unpaid work through November 20,
2002 which is the date all of the Trust Deed documentation was put together. He stated
that there is still an outstanding encumbrance of $87,500 in favor of the State of Oregon,
with the City taking second position, and there are a couple of pieces of FHDC property
that will be sold with the proceeds going to eliminating that encumbrance. There will be
another $20,000 encumbrance that will be maintained most likely throughout the life of
this five year agreement. The City's main concern relates to cost overruns that may be
incurred with this type of project and staff proposes through diligent construction
management to make sure that there are no changes to the construction costs unless the
very strict application of change order procedures is followed. He stated that the goal has
been to make sure that there is not money owed that the City would then be responsible
for to a creditor. Staff is recommending that the Trust Deed be approved by the Council
since the benefit of this facility in our community outweighs the risk and staff will do
what they can to further minimize any risk to the City. If approved, the Trust Deed will
be recorded and there will be escrow instructions that will be prepared and forwarded to a
Title Company in order to obtain title insurance in the amount of $600,000.
Mayor stated that, as a member of the fundraising committee, this has been a very
difficult and lengthy process and he feels that there needs to be a certain amount of trust
between the City and FHDC. He reminded the public that there are no tax dollars going
into this particular project rather funds from a multitude of private donors and the grant
will be paying for this facility.
FIGLEY/SIFUENTEZ... accept the conveyance of the attached trust deed to secure the
Cipriano Ferrel Education Center property.
Councilor Figley stated that this is a project that would be beneficial to the community
and, with her eXIPerience in the title insurance field, there are times in which the end result
is a default. In this case, she does not feel that default is an issue. Her concern is that the
project adhere to typical customary standards as to the progress of the project versus

every remedy that may be needed in a worse case scenario even though she does not feel
that it will be necessary in this case.

The motion passed unanimously.
3690 LAND USE PARTITION #02-01 (1820 E. Hardcastle): City Council Options.
Administrator Brown stated that this was a simple lot partition in which the project met
the established guidelines. This parcel had been before the Council in the past, however,
it had involved a zone change plus a number of other issues that did not receive Council
approval. In this case, the partition allows for the separation of a house from the rest of
the lot.
FIGLEY /MCCALLUM... rescind the Council motion to bring this issue up for public
hearing. The motion passed unanimously.
3794 Mayor Jennings proceeded to give Chief Russell a roll of Police Dept. security tape that

Figley a number of items that he had uncovered in his office that he felt might come in
useful during her tenure.

4340 CITY ADMINI~TRATOR'S REPORT.
Administrator Btown stated that there was a sewage spill across Highway 214 near the
High School early this morning. Public Works staff responded very quickly to this
incident and it was found that a temporary pipe separated at the pump station construction
site. The sewage spill involved approximately 20,000 to 25,000 gallons of which it is
estimated that 5,000 gallons made its way into Mill Creek. Staff had contacted the
Department of Environmental Quality and City crews had a majority of spill cleaned up
by 5:00 am this morning. The staff feels confident that they have taken care of any health
concerns regarding the spill and signs have been posted both upstream and downstream
warning people not to be in the creek due to the spill.

in his neighborhood and he reminded the public that homeowners need to lock their
vehicle doors when they have them parked in their driveway to protect any valuables in
the car and potential vehicle theft. He also reminded the public that solicitor's are
required to have a City license and residents are encouraged to call the Police Department
to report any solicitor who does not have a license.

Vincent's de Paul local charity and $250 will be donated to the St. Luke's Correctional
Ministry, She stated that she will miss working with the Mayor and Councilor Chadwick

Councilor Chadwick stated that she had also enjoyed the party and she congratulated
Councilor Sifuentez in organizing the party.
Mayor Jennings questioned when the E. Hardcastle sidewalks would be completed.
Director Tiwari stated that the sidewalk would have been finished earlier, however, the
City has asked the contractor to place the blocks at a slightly different location plus there
are a couple of improvements that will be made based on requests of the property owners.
On the north side of the road, a couple of sidewalk areas have not been completed since it
involves the Postal Department and staff felt that it was best to wait until a final decision
was made on the mailbox issue.
Councilor Figley stated that the actual surface of the street near the east end does not
seem to be as smooth as what she would expect for a new street.
Director Tiwari stated that he would have the roadway checked by his staff.
5545 EXECUTIVE SESSION.
Mayor Jennings entertained a motion to adjourn into executive session under the
authority ofORS 192.660 (1)(e), ORS 192.660 (l)(h), and ORS 192.660 (1)(f).
BJELLAND/SIFUENTEZ.... adjourn to executive session under the statutory authority
listed by the Mayor. The motion passed unanimously.
The Council adjourned to executive session at 8: 17 p.m. and reconvened the meeting at
8:56 p.m..
5570 Mayor Jennings stated that no decisions were made in executive session.
The Mayor suggested that the Council consider putting the existing Community Center
on the market as surplus property, along with other property that the City should dispose
of, rather than putting capital funds into the building. The Meals Program does use the
facility regularly. however, providing them advance notice of the City's intention to put
the property on the market will give them time to find a different meal site location,
Sale proceeds could then be placed in an account for a new Center or wherever the
Council would like to place the money for future use.
Administrator Brown stated that the financing plan for a new Center did identify the sale
proceeds from that facility to be put back into a new Center. He stated that he would like
to make some contact with the Senior Nutrition Program management and give them a
few months to think about what they would like to do when the City would come to them

the condition of the turf on the soccer fields. Randy said that we need to schedule
fields so we let them heal up, and that we will work. this into the Master Plan. Randy
said that a survey would be done on the coaches. Rosetta and Herb commented that
we received a nice response to the survey, and that it is important to get feedback
from parents and to keep the good feeling going. We will keep the evaluation process
and will weave it into future activities.

III Presentation, Jim Mulder
Sign Ordinance. Jim stated that the Community Development staff is currently drafting a new
ordinance which will be in effect is approximately 9 months. The current one is ambiguous
and doesn't have clear parameters, it doesn't include temporary signs (banners, garage sale,
sandwich boards). The new ordinance doesn't really draw from the old one.
Enforcement is a major problem with the sign ordinance as there are not enough enforcement
officers to monitor all offenders regularly. The cost of enforcement is expensive. Jim states
that rigid rules will not make the business community happy and therefore there will have to
be a balanced approach toward temporary signage. One possible method would be to allow
businesses to have temporary 5ignage displayed for a set number of days per year, as a
regulatory measure.
Public education will be needed with the new sign ordinance. The Uvability Task Force will
work to assist with the educational campaign.

Pete said that a probl~m with the enforcement now is that the code enforcement officers are
reacting to problems and not able to be proactive and monitor the community to spot
problems early on.
Jim stated that the intention is to make the new ordinance apply more to the problem areas,
such as pole-standing signage or monument signage. The new ordinance would not be so
strict about signage attached to buildings, for instance.
Jane questioned the issue of compliance in the existing signage. Would businesses be able to
keep their non-conforming signs as they were "grand fathered in" or would they need to come
into compliance with change of business ownership or remodeling? Jim said that the
ordinance review is assessing the possibility of amortization, which is the gradual phasing out
of non-compliant signs with a specific time frame.
Usa questioned the issue of sign quality -- the quality of materials, craftsmanship, spelling, and
aesthetics. Jim stated that the new ordinance win address signage quality. Perhaps a sign
review board will assess new signs and make discretionary decisions regarding the
appropriateness and acceptabifity of the proposed signs.
Pete questioned the electronic signs, what is acceptable? Jim stated that the current code is
unclear about them but the new code will clarify the acceptable electronic signage.
The new ordinance will specify the height, size, and locations of new signage. Issues of
banners and flags will also be addressed with new ordinance.
The Task Force is considering putting together a program for public access television that will
address the new sign ordinance issues and serve as a component of the public education
campaign. This will be modeled after a similar program currently running regarding the-
revised noise ordinance.
The use of volunteers from the community would also be useful as non-compliant temporary
sign monitors. These properly trained volunteers could then pick up the- offending signs on a
regular basis, thus assisting the code enforcement officers in the enforcement.
IV. Project Updates.
Rower Baskets. No update, JoAnn was not present. There needs to be an effort to get the
appreciation plaques completed soon.
Front Street Park. Betty was not present but Pete reported on the project. Only one portion
of the park win be fenced. The picnic table has already been vandalized but instead of
removal, the Park Dept. will monitor and maintain the equipment vigilantly, per Randy
Westrick.
VII October 12 Fall Cleanup. The cleanup was publicized with inserts in water bill inserts, a

MEMO

TO:
SUBJECT: Aquatic Center Chemical Separation Building Update
DATE:
December 4, 2002
The site plan review and a conditional use application for the chemical separation
building for the aqltlatic center will be on the December 12,2002 Planning
Commission agenda. The conditional use is required since an aquatic center is a
conditional use for a public use zone in the Woodburn Development Ordinance
and the chemical separation building is considered part of the aquatic center.
The plans for the chemical separation building are complete and specifications
are close to completion. The project should be ready for bidding in January
2003. There is a possibility that the foundation work and structural work will be
bid separately.
It is anticipated that the building will be completed by June 30, 2003.

From: David N. Tor. geson, P.E., Assistant City Engineer <l1J..Tr
Date: December 3, 2002 fV'~ /.
Subject: Mill Creel< Pump Station
Status Report
The last report to Council was made October 7,2002. Since that report, piling
supports for manholes and pipes have been installed, tested, and accepted.
Placement of two large diameter manholes and connecting gravity sewer pipes is
now complete, adding capacity and reliability. The new pipes also corrected a
previously undeteqted infiltration leak that had admitted significant quantities of
groundwater to the system over time. The lines were inspected and placed in
operation November 27, 2002, allowing the contractor's temporary bypass
pumps to be taken out of service. (Returning to near-normal operation provides
greater safety against the potential of sewage spill related to temporary facilities.)
During the same time, the new Flygt pump was installed in the drywell at the
pump station, and stainless-steel discharge pipes were installed at the pump
discharge, immediately outside the pump station building. The stainless pipes
replaced older, cotroded pipes that passed through the wetwell, making their
inspection and maintenance difficult.
Work remaining includes restoration of surface improvements around the station.
Paving and fencing will be completed after the trenches are backfilled. Minor
work, involving control programming and electrical testing of the new Flygt pump,
will also occur while the outside is restored. City forces will clean the sewer
wetwell of accumulated solids after all systems have been accepted for public
maintenance. Completion of all project elements is expected to occur before
December 24, 2002.

SUBJECT: Tree and Poison Oak Removal in Burlingham Park
DATE:
December 4, 2002
There was a complaint from a Burlingham Park user regarding poison oak in the
park. Two children came in contact with the poison oak and required a doctor's
treatment.
Parks maintenance found several minor poison oak occurrences on some of the
trees and these areas of poison oak have been removed. This park will be
sprayed next spring to prevent reoccurrence of the poison oak.
One major poison oak infestation was found on a tree that is adjacent to the west
park boundary by the church. The poison oak limbs at the tree base are in
excess of two inches in diameter and extend approximately 25 feet into the
approximately 45 foot tall tree. An arborist was consulted and indicated that with
the extensive poison oak infestation that this tree should be removed.
Unless other direction is received from council, staff will proceed to contract for
removal of this tree and the poison oak that is growing in it.

Comprehensive Plan Amendment 01-03 and Zone Change 01-07
To:
From:
Subject:
RECOMMENDATION: Continue the public hearing on Comprehensive Plan
Amendment 01-03 and Zone Change 01-07 to the City Council meeting of January 13,
2003.
BACKGROUND: At their hearings of June 13, 2002 and June 27,2002, the Planning
Commission considered a request by Tim Doman to change the Comprehensive Plan
Map designation on property located at 373 Gatch Street from Low Density Residential
(less than 12 units per acre) to High Density Residential (greater than 12 units per acre)
and change the Zone Map designation from Single-Family Residential (RS) District to
Multi-Family Residential (RM) District. On July 11, 2002, the Planning Commission
approved a final order recommending denial of Comprehensive Plan Amendment 01-03
and Zone Change 01-07. The Planning Commission's action is in the form of a
recommendation because only the City Council is authorized to approve comprehensive
plan amendments and zone changes.
Subsequent to the Planning Commission's action, the applicant requested the
opportunity to provide additional evidence and argument to address the Planning
Commission's findings for denial of the applications. City staff granted the applicant's
request, because a comprehensive plan amendment application is not subject to the
State's 120-day processing rule. On November 5, 2002, the applicant submitted its
supplemental evidence and arguments. These consist of a traffic impact analysis and
the applicant's 12-page "Hearing Statement" with multiple attachments. Due to the
significant amount of additional evidence and arguments submitted, staff has not had
sufficient time to analyze the additional materials in a comprehensive manner. To
provide sufficient time to do so, staff recommends that this item be continued to the first
City Council meeting in January.

The property to the south is zoned Single Family Residential (RS) and Multiple
Family Residential (RM). Six existing manufactured dwellings are located on the
property to the south. The property to the east is located outside of the

east of the subject site.
The applicant is proposing to subdivide the Woodburn Crest Estates
Manufactured Home Park into 43 lots pursuant to Oregon Revised Statute (ORS)
92.835, This statute is a new law enacted by the 2001 legislature entitling a
property owner to subdivide a previously lawfully established manufactured
dwelling or mobile home park, ORS 92.835. If a MHP complies with the new
statute, a city must approve a tentative plan to subdivide it, even if it does not
satisfy city-adopted subdivision standards.
IV. RELEVANT APPROVAL CRITERIA:
OREGON REVISED STATUTE
Chapter 92. Section 92.835
V. FINDINGS:
ORS 92.835 Subdivision of manufactured dwelling park or mobile home park.
Notwithstanding the standards and procedures established under ordinances
and regulations adopted by the governing body of a city or a county under ORS
92.044 or 92.048, when application for approval of the subdivision of a
manufactured dwelling park or a mobile home park is made under ORS 92.040
to the governing body of a city or county, the governing body of the city or
county shall approve:
(1) A tentative plan upon receipt and verification of evidence
that:
(a) The park is in compliance with the governing body's
standards for a manufactured dwelling park or a mobile
home park or is an approved nonconforming use. Forthe
purposes of this paragraph, a park is in compliance if the
governing body of the city or county has not issued a
written notice of noncompliance on July 2, 2001; and
(b)
The tentative plan does not increase the number of lots,
as defined in ORS 446.003, approved for the park,
change the boundary lines or setback requirements or
SUB 02-03 Findings in Support

T
make other development changes; and
(2) A plat in compliance with the applicable requirements of ORS
92.010 to 92.190, except standards and procedures adopted by
regulation or ordinance under ORS 92.044 or 92.048.
Note: Section 7, chapter 711, Oregon Laws 2001, provides:
Sec. 7. Sections 1 to 5 of this 2001 Act [92.830 to 92.845J and the
amendments to ORS 92.427 by section 6 of this 2001 Act apply to a
manufactured dwelling park or a mobile home park lawfully established before
the effective date ofthis 2001 Act [July 2, 2001].
FINDING: The City of Woodburn approved a conditional use permit and site plan for
a 40-lot manufactured home park on the subject property in 1995. There is no
evidence that the applicant received necessary approvals for building code
compliance for the Woodburn Crest Estates Mobile Home Park development.
Despite some irregularities, the mobile home park has been physically established.
The physical improvements were installed to serve 45 lots. The new law establishes
minimum standards, which if satisfied gives the applicant a right to the subdivision.
The law does not prevent the City from approving subdividing a mobile home park
that falls short of meeting all these minimum criteria.
The City Council finds that the existing park is in compliance with the original park
approval because the City did not issue a specific written notice of noncompliance
by July 2, 2001.
The City Council finds that the tentative plan complies with this statute because
increasing the number of lots from 40 to 43 is a small increase that may be
considered in substantial conformance with the original approval and the tentative
plan does not change boundary lines or setback requirements or make other
development changes.
A condition of approval requires the final plat to comply with the applicable
requirements of ORS 92.010 to 92.190.
The applicant has entered into an agreement (ref. Exhibit "B") to address practical
considerations and other issues relating to the conversion of the subject property to
a subdivision. Compliance with this agreement is required as a condition of approval.
VI. CONCLUSION:
Subdivision Case No. 02-03 satisfies all approval criteria relating to ORS 92.835.

SUBJECT:
Honorable Mayor and City Council ^ /~
John C. Brown, City AdministratorP"
Exteqsion of Portland Gas and Electric Franchise Agreement
Recommendation:
It is recommended that the City Council adopt the attached ordinance, which
extends the Portland General Electric franchise until February 28, 2003.
Background:
The City's current franchise agreement with Portland General Electric (PGE) was
executed in 1993. This is a non-exclusive franchise that allows PGE to locate,
operate, and modify its system within the City's rights-of-way. It further dictates
service requirements, the terms under which PGE's system may be constructed
and relocated, and other provisions such as indemnification and reporting
responsibilities. The agreement also establishes franchise fee payments to the
City. Franchise fees are limited to 3.5 percent of the PGE's gross revenues
derived from the franchise area in the previous year, adjusted for bad debt. In
1993, as allowed under State statute and the franchise agreement with PGE, the
City also instituted a 1.5 percent privilege tax, which too is imposed on PGE's
gross revenues.
Discussion:
PGE's franchise agreement expires on December 31, 2002. In anticipation of a
franchise renewal, City and PGE staff commenced franchise negotiations earlier
this year. For the most part, negotiations have addressed provisions of the
franchise agreement related to relocation and conversion of facilities, and the
regulatory relationship between the City and PGE. While some progress has
been made, negotiations are still ongoing, and will not be completed in time to
hold a public hearing on the franchise renewal or obtain City Council approval
of a new agreement prior to December 31,2002. To allow adequate time for
these activities to occur, your approval of a two-month extension of the existing
franchise is recommended. The attached ordinance accomplishes that extension,
and affirms that privilege taxes will continue to be collected during the extension
period. PCE has reviewed this document and agreed to the extension.

ORS 190 Agreement with City of Hubbard for use of police firearms range
Recommendation: Enter into an ORS 190 agreement with the City of Hubbard to allow their
use of the Woodburn Police Firearms Range
The Woodburn Police Department has had a long and cordial relationship with the City of
Hubbard Police Department. This relationship has included training partnerships to reduce costs
and provide modern, realistic, and mandated training to police officers from both jurisdictions.
Recently the City of Hubbard was forced to seek a new location at which to conduct it's police
firearms training. Subsequently the Hubbard Police Department requested permission to utilize
the Woodburn Police Firearms Range for their training purposes. The sharing of our range
facility with Hubbard Police will provide the following benefits:
.
City of Woodburn can recoup some maintenance costs
City of Hubbard will share their training equipment and mobile storage facility
Hubbard Police Chief David Dryden is a recognized expert in the field of police
firearms training systems and his assistance will only bolster the quality of the
training provided by the Woodburn Police Training Unit to our officers
Quality Firearms training at a reduced cost for both agencies
Improved police operations through the sharing of training and facilities
.
.
.
.
The ORS 190 agreement was drafted to assure proper safety and liability measures are followed
in order to provide for a safe and efficient training facility for all those involved in the training
and the public as well.

Minimum Wage Increase
Recommendation: Council adopt the accompanying Council Bill which provides for an increase in the base
minimum wage as required by Ballot Measure 25 plus grade/step adjustments for positions listed on the exhibits.
Backeround: On November 5, 2002, a state-wide ballot measure was approved by the voters which increases
the minimum hourly wage frbm $6.50 to $6.90 effective January 1,2003. Additionally, future increases in the
minimum wage will be adjusted annually for inflation and the Commissioner of the Bureau of Labor and
Industries will calculate the adjustment in September of each year with the increased wage to be effective the
following January 1 st.
The City's hourly rate schedule for Park and Recreation employees (Exhibit A) provides for a beginning step
at minimum wage with 5% step adjustments. Under the City's current Personnel Policy manual, hourly
employees are eligible for merit increases following the completion of 1,040 hours within each step. The
majority of part-time employees work less than 20 hours per week and, as a result, it takes them one year or
longer in order to be eligible for a merit increase. This schedule also provides for hourly rate increases to those
classifications which have greater responsibilities and/or lead worker responsibilities over other park and
recreation hourly employees.
On October 14, 2002, the Council adopted Resolution 1699 which increased the hourly rate schedule for Part-
time and Seasonal employees for all positions listed on the schedule except for Library Page, Clerical Aide, and
Park Maintenance Aide (PT - 1.0). These part-time positions were left at minimum wage since they are
considered an entry-level position. The proposed Council Bill would also increase this hourly rate schedule to
meet the new minimum wage law requirements but all other positions on this schedule would remain status quo.
Financial Impact: The total estimated financial impact for fiscal year 2002-03 is $6,850 ($6,000 in wages and
$850 in benefits) whereas annually, based on current year budget projections of part-time hours, the financial
impact is estimated at $13,000 for wages and $2,000 for required benefit costs.

A RESOLUTION RE-EST ABLISHING THE COMPENSATION SCHEDULE FOR

WHEREAS, th~ City Council is obligated per Section 11 of the Woodburn City Charter
to establish compensation for each City officer and employee; and
WHEREAS, on October 14,2002, the City Council enacted Resolution No. 1699 which

WHEREAS, a state-wide ballot measure was adopted by the voters at the November 5,
2002 general election which increased the minimum wage paid to employees effective January 1,
2003; and
WHEREAS, th~ City Council recognizes the need to adopt a hourly rate schedule to
maintain compliance with State law and maintain proper equity compensation between
classifications; now, therefore,
THE CITY OF WOODBURN RESOLVES AS FOLLOWS:

time/seasonal employees (Exhibit A), and the hourly rate schedule for Part-Time/Seasonal

John C. Brown, City Administrator--
~ution to Keep November 11th as Veterans Day
Recommendation:
It is recommended that the City Council determine its policy regarding adopting
a resolution in opposition to House Resolution 62.
Background:
At its November 25, 2002 meeting, the City Council discussed House Resolution
(HR) 62. HR 62 was introduced in Congress to designate Veteran's Day as
Election Day in presidential election years. It appeared the consensus of the
Council was to oppose changing Veterans Day, as that action would diminish the
importance of the holiday to the men, women and families of those who have
served their country. Staff was requested to bring the matter back to Council on
December 9, 2002, to allow the Council to decide whether it wants to take a
formal position in opposition to HR 62.
Discussion:
The attached resolution was prepared, based on the model sponsored by the Elks
National Service Commission. It is provided for your approval and adoption,
should you determine to formally opposed HR 62.

COUNCIL BILL NO.
RESOLUTION NO.
A RESOLUTION TO KEEP NOVEMBER 11TH AS VETERANS DA Y.
WHEREAS, House Resolution (HR) 62 has been introduced in Congress to designate
V cterans Day as Election Day in presidential years; and
WHEREAS, traditionally, November 11 th around the world was solemnly celebrated as
Armistice Day, the anniversary of ending World War I; and
WHEREAS, in 1954, to honor those who served in all armed conflicts to keep our nation
free, Armistice Day-November 11th in the U.S.A. - became known and celebrated as Veterans
Day; and
WHEREAS, American veterans are due their own day to honor their comrades in arms,
as well as cherishing the memory of those who gave "Full Measure" in defending and preserving
the American way of life; and
WHEREAS, this proposal would only serve to replace Veterans Day, as we know it, and
will undermine its traditional solemnity; NOW, THEREFORE,
THE CITY OF WOODBURN RESOLVES AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. The City Council of the City of Woodburn opposes HR 62.
Section 2. The City Council advises Congress and all citizens that we support keeping
November 11 th as Veterans Day for all years to come. The service of all veterans, living and
dead, who helped secure the freedoms we enjoy today should not be diminished for political
expediency.

TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council... /9?
VIA: John C. Brown, City AdministratorP'/
FROM: Kezia MacAlistaire, Management Analyst II
SUBJECT: 2003 Tourism and Economic Development Grant Program
Recommendation
It is recommended the City Council grant 2003 Tourism and Economic
Development Grant funds to the Chamber of Commerce in an amount not-to-
exceed $35,888; and $0 to Cascade Scenic Railway, Inc. Funds will be distributed
pursuant to a grant agreement between the City and the grantee.
Background:
In 2002-03, the City Council increased the Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) to 10
percent, and earmarked two-ninths (22.22%) of the TOT for tourism and
economic development via grant program. The Council also approved grant
requirements and guidelines. These monies are distributed through a
competitive grant process to local organizations who promote tourism or
economic development, who can advance the City Council's purposes in creating
and allocating grant funding, and who can demonstrate the ability to deliver
projects that will benefit the Woodburn economy.
Eligible projects pursuant to grant guidelines include those which:
. Promote existing tourist attractions & events
. Create a greater diversity of activities to attract tourists to Woodburn
. Promote diversification of the City's economic base
. Promote projects and activities having the capacity to enhance long-term
economic growth
. Promote and assist existing small businesses
. Provide technical and financial assistance to expand existing businesses
. Provide technical and financial assistance to develop new businesses.
Two agencies were funded last year: the Woodburn Downtown Association
(WDA) and the Woodburn Area Chamber of Commerce. The WDA used $2,500
to promote Saturday Market and for its Downtown Tree Lighting Project. The
Chamber was granted $35,200 to expand Visitors' Center Services.
2003 Grant Applic~tion and Review Process
October 2002. Notice of funding availability was provided to three organizations
that showed interest in the Tourism and Economic Development grant: the
68
T , .,.,.
T
WDA, the Chamber of Commerce, and Cascade Scenic Railway, Inc. Only two
submitted grant applications. The Chamber requested $37,501 and the Cascade
Scenic Railway requested $10,000 (Attachments 1 and 2).
November 2002. City staff evaluated applications for eligibility. A review panel
was formed, and grant proposals and program guidelines were provided to the
panel. The panel was comprised of 3 owners/ managers of tourism-related
businesses: Woodburn Inn, Bauman's Farms, and Elmer's Restaurant. The
members independently reviewed the applications. Then evaluated the
applications as a group, listened to presentations by Chamber and Cascade
Scenic Railway representatives, and discussed funding recommendations.
December 2002. The grant review team submitted final comments and funding
recommendations to City staff.
The panel agreed the proposal submitted by the Chamber clearly furthers the
objectives of the Tourism and Economic Develbpment Grant Program. The three
members' funding recommendations were $37,501, $37,501, and $33,751. The
group approved averaging these recommendations, resulting in a final funding
recommendation of $35,888 for the Chamber of Commerce. The group felt that
expanding Chamber Visitors' Center functions will promote tourism in
Woodburn. The creation and distribution of promotional printed material was
cited as a particular strength, and the panel encouraged increased effort in that
regard. The panel also recommended that the Chamber of Commerce strive to
involve its membership in tourism-related programs and activities.
The panel had difficulty making a clear connection between the Cascade Scenic
Railway project proposal and the project's ultimate goals. The reviewers felt the
project concept and vision need to be more concrete. They also indicated they
would be more comfortable awarding monies to a project with more financial
commitments in place, such as matching funds from other benefiting
communities. Concern was also expressed over the Railway's eventual
partnership with a for-profit organization, as the grant program is for not-for-
profit ventures. Based upon their concerns, the review panel recommended no
funds should be awarded to the Cascade Scenic Railway project at this time.
As the application recommended for funding meets established grant guidelines,
and is recommended by a panel of individuals representing tourism-related
businesses, your approval of the recommended grant awards is respectfully
requested. Upon you approval of these recommendations, a fee-for-services
agreement will be negotiated and executed with the Chamber of Commerce.

Project Director: Jerry L. Wheeler, Sr.
Mission Statement:
Our mission is to advance and promote the economic and civic interests of
Woodburn and the surrounding area.
History:
The Woodburn Area Chamber of Commerce has been around for many,
many years, first as a volunteer organization, and then incorporated in 1959.
It has always served as a promotional and networking tool for the
community and its businesses. Today the Chamber also works in the areas
of economic development, workforce development and providing services to
its members.
Similar Experience:
The Chamber has been serving as a Visitor Center, but on a very limited
scale due to limited funds. By default the Chamber was consistently the
"one stop shop" for anyone looking for information on a particular
community. With a new professional, more welcoming presentation and
updated equipment we are better able to serve and increase the number of
visitors to Woodburn.

3. The objective of the project is to enhance the overall quality and image of
Woodburn area visitor promotional efforts, in order to create increased positive contacts
with our community. By continuing to offer a full service Visitor Center and more
comprehensive information on what to do in the area it is more likely visitors will stay in
the area longer and spend more dollars in the community. More visitor contacts translate
into more dollars spent here in our local economy, benefiting businesses and improving
the quality of life. .
A vibrant tourism industry here also means that new businesses will be attracted to
the community. Some may be tourism oriented but others, because of what they see here,
will choose to relocate, generating more tax revenue and better paying jobs, allowing for
enhanced city services and improving the quality of life.
While it is almost impossible to track how many people who pick up a tourism
brochure at any given venue actually visit that brochure's listed area, it is quite safe to say
that not having brochures on Woodburn throughout the state and elsewhere results in
nobody visiting our area from these high traffic visitor information venues. By not
participating, Woodburn forfeits a huge resource for enhancing the reputation of our
community.
Everything asked for has been created with a two-fold purpose in mind. First, to
create the promotional materials and activities necessary to potentially attract new visitors
to our community and to make them more readily available to those potential visitors.
Second, once those visitors have arrived, create a welcoming and professional environment
that will further clarify what is available here for our visitors.
While it is true that the Chamber of Commerce has always answered the phone as a
one-stop information center on Woodburn, our City partnership has enabled us to extend
our Visitor Center operating hours, provide professional and informed "greeters" and
extend our promotional efforts into the surrounding region and the state. We could not
advertise the surrounding communities, nor could we promote regional and state
attractions. We would also never be involved with the amount of walk-in traffic that is
occurring and has literally doubled since we opened at our new address. My assistant is
spending most of her time greeting visitors, and less time doing other Chamber work. This
success has necessitated hiring additional staff, and as our role expands will require even
more staff investment.
We've done all this, concentrated on implementing these objectives, because it
helps to fulfill a portion of our mission in the areas of community promotion and economic
development. We've also done this because the City of Woodburn has asked us to partner
with them in bringing new visitors to this community. This is a full-time challenge for
which the Chamber is accomplishing in a part-time setting with professional resources
(albeit limited). The City, and tourism-related businesses, get a Visitor Center, professional
staff and equipment, all at a fraction of the cost to create and man a stand-alone facility.
Failure to grant the needed funds will force us to drastically scale back the City's Visitor
Center and move to a more affordable location.

In order to achieve these goals, CSR Inc expects to spend approximately $750,000 in land acquisition and
approximately $100,000 on four passenger cars. The cost of building a platform/terminal in Woodburn is expected to
be about $15,000. In order to raise these funds, CSR Inc. is currently working on a marketing campaign and intends
to a Iy for a ro riate local, state, federal and private grants.
Briefly describe the history of your organization (including years of operation:
Interested participants have been meeting since September 1999 and have garnered extensive support, optimism and
unanimity. The group formed a not-for-profit corporation in August 2001, with a board of directors that represents
the communities and interests along the line. They continue to be committed to the mission of an orderly
engagement of community and county partners and other public and private entities to implement new transportation
opportunities, beginning with excursion service. The main terminal of this service will be in Woodburn. The Oregon
Department of Transportation recently completed a feasibility study on the viability of the passenger service between
Woodburn, Mt. Angel and Silverton. The cost of this study - $70,000 - was donated as an in-kind service. CSR, Inc.
has entered into an agreement with the Willamette Valley Railway Company for an exclusive right to operate
passenger service to operate passenger service on the line

The project for the purposes of this grant is the nmdraising/marketing campaign to continue increasing support for
Cascade Scenic Railway and to raise the funds necessary tp/for land and equipment acquisition and construction.
Negotiations are underway with Union Pacific, ODOT, Wfll~tte Valley Railway Company, and CSR Inc for CSR
Inc to purchase the land from Union Pacific. The land acquisition is anticipated to be completed by the summer of
2003, with construction and equipmcnt acquisition completed by the end of2003.
This will take a major financial commitment and CSR Inc, will be relying on grants and donations to achieve the
goal. Therefore, CSR lnc will contract with a grant writer as soon as possible. Th.e organization also has begun a
marketing campaign which will reach potential donors. Thc marketing campaign necds to bc developed
professionally and CSR has made contact with a professional who is \\iilling to provide services at cost and in-kind.
The Cascade Scenic Railvvay is scheduled to open in SprIng 200-1. opcr3ting on an il1ltial schedule of 150 days a year.
It will provide inter-connected tourist related transportation between the cities of Woodburn, Me Angel, Silverton,
and eventually Stayton.
Woodburn is the natural major tenninal for the project as it is at the start of the line and already has strong interest in
the railway, being the home of SP 1785. It will be necessary to have some sort of depotlboarding platform, probably
in the historic, downtown area, close to the current site of SP 1785. Although the initial service will be diesel, the
intention of CSR Inc. is to run steam as a component of the service.

An in-depth feasibility study carried out by the Oregon Department of Transportation, which outlines the potential of
a tourist based passenger service, concludes the project is economically viable. With the study in hand, CSR Inc, has
begun education and outreach that will help build additional financial support. CSR, Inc. has entered into an
agreement with the Willamette Valley Railway Company for an exclusive right to operate passenger service to
operate passenger service on the line and is currently negotiating with Union Pacific to purchase the rail bed.
Cascade Scenic Railway Inc already has gained support in the communities along the line, including some financial
support. However, in order to make this $2.5 million project a reality, it is necessary for CSR to apply for grants, and
further develop its marketing strategy in order to raise the money to purchase land and equipment and for
construction.

SIL VERTON MUL TIMODAL AL TERNA riVES STUDY
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Authorized as a State Planning and Research Project (SPR) for the Oregon
Department of Transportation, the Silverton Multimodal Alternatives Study set out
to examine whether rail passenger service between Woodburn-Stayton in Marion
County could benefit parallel road systems by reducing congestion and
maintenance costs, and postpone or defray future capital expenditures to
increase road capacity. A second concern was survival of rail freight service on
the same line provided by Willamette Valley Railway 0/'NR). Continued rail
service to the affect~d sections of Marion County is by no means guaranteed.
The combination of low freight volumes and a legacy of deferred maintenance
inherited by VWR threaten long-term continuation of this method of transport
Losing it would shift more tonnage onto the highways and handicap industrial
development in the corridor where V'-NR operates.
The study begins with an overview of the rail corridor between Woodburn and
Stayton, examining the railroad and its sideline into east Salem, paralleling and
connecting highways, traffic volumes and growth trends, population and
population growth, and economic factors.
This is followed with a detailed look at the capital costs associated with
implementing a unique excursion passenger service that also provides a
legitimate transportation function by transporting people to and from a new major
tourist attraction-the Oregon Garden in Silverton. Additional information
includes sample schedules, discussions of motive power and rolling stock,
potential station sites, operating costs, creation of a maintenance facility, . a
discussion about fares and a review of marketing ideas and options.
The report also touches lightly on future prospects for a relatively high speed
commuter train operation and reports on college-level railroad curriculums that, if
adopted by a local junior college, could use this rail line as a laboratory for
students to gain valuable hands-on experience.
Key Findings
The Oregon Garden appears to be fulfilling expectations of becoming a
significant tourism destination and steady growth is forecast for the foreseeable
future. The commercial district of historic Silverton is already reacting to the
prospect of having many new visitors in town and this activity will suffice to attract
more new visitors who may arrive for attractions other than the Oregon Garden.

The road system serving Silverton is not overtaxed nor is it in any immediate
danger of reaching capacity. But traffic in general is growing and other
development not associated with the Oregon Garden is adding vehicles as well,
particularly between Salem and Silverton where the designated travel route
entails county roads rather than state-maintained highways.
There is an opportunity to create a unique combination of an excursion train
that ha,uls tourists, to another major attraction in the process. Such opportunities
are rare, as most excursion trains are attractions unto themselves, usually relying
upon scenery and the fun of a train ride, and do not provide a means of transport
to someplace else. But the situation here is different and such an operation, if it
were to be successful, could haul substantial numbers of Oregon Garden visitors
annually with a resulting decrease in demand for highway resources, fuel
consumption, air pollution and congestion.
Passenger haulage could grow to eclipse freight haulage over VNR providing
a critical new sour1ce of revenue and helping to assure continuation of the historic
rail line for future economic development and future conversion into a higher-
speed commute service.
The most prob~ble recipe for success is a service that operates multiple trips
daily with the same set of equipment Woodbum-Silverton-East Salem and
. marketing to attract Oregon Garden visitors out of their autos in Salem and .
Woodburn and substitute a train ride to Silverton. Initially, such a service could
begin with an operating schedule of 50 days yearly in the nicer travel season and
it appears that sustainability could occur by carrying between 500 and 1,000
riders per day at an average round-trip fare of around $15. This would amount to
25,000 "rides" per season but this is only using approximately 22 percent of the
capacity recommended to acquire. In reality, a well run, consistently operated
service aggressively marketed should be able to fill up far more capacity and
probably expand its operating season too. Further attraction can be added to the
excursion component by operating some of the season with a steam locomotive
and possibly offering a dinner train service that might travel the Stayton leg of
VWR.
Cascade Scenic Railway, a non-profit group that is incorporating to promote
train tourism, has already begun the process of converting vision to reality. While
this study does not purport to be a blue print for success it does endeavor to
identify the critical elements necessary to successfully launch and operate a rail
passenger excursion.

Fee Deferral for Crown Two Development, LLC
Recommendation;
It is recommended that the City Council authorize the City Administrator to
execute a loan contract with Crown Two Development, LLC. related to Parks
System Development Charges.
Background:
Crown Two Development, LLC is the owner of the Evergreen Retirement
Community, located on Evergreen Road. The facility, which is nearing
completion, will house 96 congregate care units, 40 assisted living units, and 8
independent cottages. Site plan approvals were given in the late spring, 2001. In
pre-application discussions, Public Works staff gave Crown Two a Parks SDC
estimate of approximately $500. The calculation was erroneously based on
commercial, rather that residential zoning. Crown Two indicates it used the
calculation when securing project financing. City staff subsequently found and
corrected the estimate. That resulted in a revised estimate of $197,750. This
information was available to the applicant prior to Planning Commission
approval of the project. A copy of the corrected Parks SDC estimate was
included in the Commission's package, and was incorporated in condition of
approval No. 21 related to the project, which stated" All system development
charges shall be paid at the time of building permit issuance in accordance with
adopted ordinances". Crown Two executed an " Acceptance of Conditions"
form, agreeing to all conditions of development. Building permits were issued
for the project in September 2001. Crown Two took exception to paying the
corrected Parks SDC's at that time, and according to notations on the building
permit paperwork, was given approval to delay payment to "a later time". That
approval was given in lieu of a written request by, or written documentation of
the deferral directed to, Crown Two. Staff intended to collect the charges prior to
issuing an occupancy permit for the project.
During the development period, Crown Two entered into a number of leases for
units, and individuals sold homes in anticipation of taking up residency at the
complex. Completion of the project is slightly behind schedule, and I am advised
that some individuals sold their homes and are now residing in motels or other
temporary housing waiting to move into the Retirement Community.

Honorable Mayor and City Council

Discussion:
Last week, Crown Two requested an occupancy permit for the development, and
was denied, because it has not yet paid Parks SDC's. Since that time, City legal
and administrative staff have worked with Crown Two to resolve the occupancy
permit issue. As of the writing of this report, City planning and building staff is
working with Crown Two to resolve any outstanding punch-list items that might
delay issuance of an occupancy permit. The SDC fee payment will be, then, the
only outstanding issue preventing occupancy of the building.
Crown Two indicates that while it has the ability to pay the outstanding SDC,
currently calculated at $216,176, it does not have adequate capital available to
pay at the current time. Monies may be available in project contingencies, can be
obtained through monthly lease cash flow, or could be provided by lender
financing. Each of the options, however, means further delay of the issuance of
occupancy permit, and further delay and inconvenience to those who have
leased units in the development.
To expeditiously resolve this situation, it is recommended that the Council
approve a deferral of Crown Two's Park SDC for a period of six months,
pursuant to a loan contract which would secure the City's interest in the project
if fees are not paid. The Council has discretion, pursuant to State statute, to defer
these fees for a period of its choosing, and to impose interest and administrative
charges. A draft of a loan contract is provided for your information. The final
draft may be altered, based on final negotiations with Crown Two.
Based on discussion with Crown Two, a six-month deferral period may be
adequate to resolve this issue. If it is not, the contract provides for a six-month
extension, if half the outstanding charges are paid by June 15, 2003. An interest
rate of 9 percent is recommended. That rate is consistent with the interest on
judgments for the payment of money and with the maximum interest rates that
may be charged for commercial transactions that occur outside of financial
institutions. If an extension is to be granted, an interest rate of 12 percent is
proposed for the extension period. This consistent with maximum rates charged
by other municipalities, and utilities related to similar and other loans. Security
for the loan would be provided by the property, via a recorded lien.
This matter has been developing quickly, and unfinished business remains to be
addressed before a loan contract can be offered to Crown Two. Staff will need to

review ownership information, records of encumbrances on the property, and
the financial position of the Limited partnership, in addition to reaching
agreement on the loan contract. This is the last opportunity to take this matter
up with your Coupcil for the next month. Accordingly, your authorization to
complete the negotiations with Crown Two, and to execute a loan contract is
respectfully requested. It is anticipated that, with your authorization and
completion of the loan contract, an occupancy permit can be granted during the
week of December 9-13, 2002.

Inter overnmental A eement for Auditin Services Related to
the west Franchise
Recommendation;
It is recommended that the City Council authorize the City Administrator to
execute the attached Intergovernmental Agreement related to
Telecommunications Financial Review Services.
Background:
Last year, several Oregon cities determined to audit the utility providers
operating under franchise in those cities. An audit regimen was agreed upon, as
were a tentative list of franchisee's to be audited and cost sharing formula
between the cities. Audits analyze fee payments, focusing on the gross fees and
customer data bases used to calculate franchise fees and utility, license, or other
fees paid to cities by the respective franchisees. The first franchisee selected for
audit was Portland Gas and Electric, as their records were readily accessible and
the company was cooperative. Woodburn joined the audit, and received
approximately $140,000 in franchise revenues owed to it. $130,000 was
appropriated in the 2002-03 budget. The remaining $10,000 was retained in fund
balance, for use in W oodbum' s share of an audit to be performed in 2002-03.
Discussion:
The cities have decided to audit Qwest in 2002-03. The audit will be performed
using a consultant retained through a personal services contract with the City of
Hillsboro. The audit will be managed, and administrative decisions made, by the
Cities of Portland and Hillsboro. Cities participating in the audit will do so via
intergovernmental agreement, and shall be subject to a share of the cost of the
audit. Woodburn's estimated share of costs is approximately $6,000.
It is anticipated that this audit of Qwest will net results similar to those from
PGE's, and that Woodburn will most likely receive unpaid fees in excess of its
investment in the audit. For these reasons, your authorization to participate in
the audit is respectfully recommended.

Alternative Traffic Impact Fee Rate Calculation for SafeWay~
FROM:
SUBJECT:
DATE:
December 5, 2002
RECOMMENDATION: Reject the alternative Traffic Impact Fee rate submitted
for Safeway.
BACKGROUND: Ordinance 2248 allows applicants the opportunity to submit
an alternative rate calculation for system development charges. Safeway was
issued a building permit on April 9, 2002 and at that time paid a Traffic Impact
Fee (TIF) of $856,184.18. Safeway representatives at that time indicated that
they may submit an alternative rate review. The attached alternative rate review
was received from Kittelson and Associates, Inc. representing Safeway on
August 22, 2002 that proposed the Safeway TIF should be $476,533.15. The
rate request provided data for a revised fee based primarily on revisions in the
pass by trip percentages and application of an internal trip calculation.
Staff requested that Don Ganer review the input and comment. His analysis and
recommendations are attached. Staff concurs with the recommendations in the
review and derived a similar conclusion from an independent review of the ITE
Trip Generation Manual, the Trip Generation Handbook and the alternative rate
request.
Staff provided the applicant the attached review of the requested rate adjustment
on November 5.2002. The applicant has provided no clarifying or additional
information regarding the request. The applicant was notified of the intent to
recommend that the alternative rate request be rejected.
Staff recommends that the alternative Traffic Impact Fee rate request submitted
by Safeway be rejected.

RE: Safeway Traffic Impact Fee Review - Woodburn, Oregon
Dear Randy:
As you requested, I have r~viewed the report prepared by Kittelson & Associates, Inc.,
(same subject) dated August 22, 2002. While the report does not so state, it is
assumed that the report was submitted as an Alternative Rate Calculation as is
authorized by Section 3(D) of the City's Transportation Impact Fee Ordinance. The
requirements outlined in the ordinance are as follows:
(D) Alternative Rate Calculation. Applicants may submit alternative rates for
system development charges, subject to the following conditions:
(I) In the event an applicant believes that the impact on City capital
improvements resulting from a development is less than the fee
established in Section (3)(B), the applicant may submit alternative
system development charge rate calculations, accompanied by the
alternative rate review fee established by resolution for this
purpose, to the City Administrator. The City may hire a consultant
to review the alternative system development charge rate
calculations, and may pay the consulting fees from system
development charges revenues.
(2) The alternative system development charge rate calculations shall
be based on data, information and assumptions contained in this
ordinance and the adopted system development charges study or an
independent source, provided that the independent source is a local
study supported by a data base adequate for the conclusions
contained in such study performed pursuant to a generally accepted
methodology and based upon generally accepted standard sources
of information relating to facilities planning, cost analysis and
demographics.

The alternate rate calculation prepared by Kittelson & Associates does not include a
"local study" as is required by the City's ordinance. The alternate rate calculation is
based on revising the number of "net new person-trips" using pass-by and diverted
linked trip information and internal trip calculations included in the Institute of
Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Handbook (Handbook).
Pass-by and Diverted Linked Trips
The alternate rate calculation includes a statement that "...34% of the trips on the road
are new trips, as opposed to the 48% new trips used in the tabulated TlF rates." The
Kittelson report does not include a calculation for the 34% figure. The Handbook
includes an average pass-by trip percentage of 36% for Supermarket (ITE Land Use
850), resulting in a new trip rate of 64%. The average pass-by trip percentage of 52%
for Supermarket in the tabulated TlF rates was calculated using data from ITE Trip
Generation, 5th Edition (1991), resulting in a new trip rate of 48%. Neither of these
calculations includes an allowance for diverted linked trips.
The Handbook includes diverted linked trip data gathered from specific traffic
surveys, but it does not include average percentages for diverted linked trips and
recommends that "...diverted linked trips should be treated similarly to primary
trips..." (Chapter 5.3, page 31). The City's TIF methodology followed this
recommended practice by providing calculations to remove pass-by trips, while
treating diverted linked trips the same as primary trips. Recent transportation SDC
methodologies developed for Clackamas County (Don Ganer & Associates, 200 I), and
for the cities of Lake Oswego (Kittelson & Associates, 1998) and Portland
(Henderson, Young & Company, 1997) also include allowances for pass-by trips, but
not for diverted linked trips.
Internal Trip Calculation
Internal trip calculations are appropriate for multi-use developments only. The
Safeway store is a 57,860 square foot free-standing Supermarket (lTE Land Use 850)
as described in ITE Trip Generation, 6th Edition (page 1519). Existing development
on the site consists of 69,860 square feet plus 16 fueling stations, all of which is
commercial/retail in nature. At full build-out in the future, the site is planned for no
more than 77,000 square feet, all of commercial/retail use. The Handbook describes
multi-use developments as "...ranging in size from 100,000 square feet to 2 million
square feet." (Chapter 7.2, page 79) The Handbook also indicates that if a
"...shopping center is planned to have out-parcel development of a significantly
different land use classification or a very large percentage of overall GLA, the site
could be considered a multi-use development for the purpose of estimating site trip
generation." (Chapter 7.3, page 80)
97
,...... T
Mr. Randy Rolunan
October 16,2002
page 3
Based on the Handbook's description, the Safeway development does not meet the
minimum size threshold for a multi-use development and does not include
significantly different land use classifications (i.e., retail, office, residential, etc.).
Since the Safeway development cannot be considered a multi-use development, the
internal trip calculation is not appropriate.
Conclusion
The alternate rate calculation should not be accepted because:
.
It does not inclllde a "local study" as is required by the City's
ordinance.
The proposed iIlew trip rate (34%) is not supported by
calculations. The Woodburn TIF methodology treats
diverted linked'trips in a manner similar to primary trips,
which is in aCC<)rdance with ITE Trip Generation Handbook
guidance and is consistent with other TIF methodology
studies.
The proposed internal trip calculation is not appropriate
because the Safeway development is not a multi-use
development as defined in the ITE Trip Generation
Handbook.

Please let me know if you have questions or need any additional information.

RE: Safeway Traffic Impact Fee Review - Woodburn, Oregon
Dear Ivlr. Rohman,
This letter is in response to the Transportation Impact Fee (TIF) to be assessed to the proposed
Safeway Store located in the southeast quadrant of the Highway 99FJHighway 211 intersection
in Woodburn, Oregon. Safeway Stores, Inc. has requested Kittelson & Associates, Inc. to
evaluate the traffic impact fee (TIF).
The purpose of a Transportation Impact Fee (TIF) ordinance is to obtain revenue for
improvements to the surrounding transportation system. The TIF a development pays is in
relation to the impact it will have on the surrounding roadways. The TIF for a proposed
development should take into account the true number of new trips that a development will
generate and the proportionate impact it will have.
Based on the City of Woodburn's Traffic Impact Fee Methodology Update (reference 1), which
describes the City's methodology for assessing TIF's, and the latest land use data available, we
believe the TIF assessed to the Safeway Store should be $476,533.15. The remainder of this
letter documents our findings. We examine the TIF calculated from tabulated values used by the
City for stand-alone developments and an alternate calculation considering the Safeway Store as
part of a larger development and using more recently published trip generation infOlmation.
TIF CALCULATED BY THE CITY'S TABULATED VALUES
The City of Woodburn publishes a traffic impact fee schedule, updated annually, which is based
on the TIF Methodology Update (reference 1). To more closely examine the assumptions of the
tabulated TIF rate in the fee schedule, this letter presents the step-by-step calculation of the TIF
using the assumptions used to reach the tabulated value. The formulas listed below are
consistent in content and numbering with the formulas found in the City's TIF methodology.

Formula 1: Cost Per New Person-Trip by Mode of Travel
The overall TIP methodology splits trips between auto (93%), bicycle and pedestrian (5%) and
transit trips (2%). Table 1 presents the cost per new person trip for each mode of travel as stated
in the October 1999 TIP update. The update also presented a methodology for annual increases
in the TIP based on increases in construction costs and real estate values in the City of
Woodburn. Table 1 also presents an average cost per person trip derived from the current traffic
impact schedule (Attachment "A"), which reflects increases in construction and real estate costs
since the October 1999 document.

*Value derived from the current traffic Impact fee schedule as of April 16, 2002
Formula 2: Net New Person-Trips
Assumptions for TIF based on the tabulated value are listed below.
· Safeway is categorized as a supermarket and will generate trips at the ITE Trip
Generation 6th Edition (reference 2) average rate of 111.51 trips per thousand square feet
of floor area per weekday.
. There are 1.65 person trips per vehicle trip.
· 48% of the trips are new trips on the system. The other 52% of trips consist of trips that
were already on the road system and either passing by the site (pass-by trips) or diverting
slightly from their original route in order to visit the site (diverted trips).
· The proposed Safeway has a gross floor area of 57,860 square feet.
· There are no internal trips between the grocery and other uses in the development.
Based on the trip generation assumptions and the tabular values, the following calculations can
be made.
=

Formula 3: Length Adjusted Person-Trips
The TIP methodology lists a trip length factor of 0.84, indicating that supermarket trips are
roughly 84% as long as the average trip from a single-family residence. A review of the
calculations in the TIP methodology indicated that the value as listed was rounded from
0.843636. In order to obtain results consistent with the TIP methodology, 0.843636 has been
used as the trip factor for all calculations. Based on this assumption, the following calculations
can be made.

The TIP rate can be calculated by dividing the TIP fee by the square footage of the proposed
development. The resulting rate is $14,589.71 per thousand square feet of floor area, which is
consistent with the total TIP per unit of $14,590 per thousand feet of floor area listed in the
October 1999 TIP schedule.
Results
The value for a traffic impact fee for a supermarket as published in the most recent table of
values is $15,503 per T.S.F.G.F.A. (Thousand Square Feet Gross Floor Area). The proposed
Safeway has a gross floor area of 57,860 square feet, resulting in a traffic impact fee of

$897,003.58. This fee uses the methodology as shown above, with an inflation adjusted average
trip cost of $208.08 rather than the $195.82 average trip cost that would be used under the
October 1999 TIP schedule. From this point on, the $208.08 average trip cost will be used in
calculations in order to produce current TIP fees.
ALTERNATE CALCULATION WITH NEW DATA AND SITE SPECIFIC VALUES
Upon review of the tabulated TIP methodology, it was found that two of the assumptions used in
the TIP could be updated to reflect the most recent trip generation data and site-specific trip
generation estimates. The changed assumptions and the updated calculations are listed below.
Formula 1: Cost Per New Person-Trip by Mode of Travel
The cost of new person-trip by mode of travel stayed unchanged and is listed in Table 1. This
option will use the current cost per trip in all calculations.
Formula 2: Net New Person-Trips
Two of the assumptions listed used in the tabulated TIP rate were re-visited and are addressed
below.
. The tabulated TIP rate assumes that the supermarket is a stand-alone use. In this case, the
supermarket is part of a larger development. As a result, some of the trips to and from the
supermarket will not come from the roadway system, but from other uses in the
development. Based on methodologies presented in the Institute of Transportation
Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Handbook (reference 3), it was determined that on a
daily basis, 25% of the total trips at the door to the supermarket will be going to and from
other uses within the development. The methodology behind this determination is
explained in greater detail below.
. The tabulated TIP rates use data from the 1991 ITE publication Trip Generation 5th
Edition (reference 4) to determine the percentage of net new trips. The most recent ITE
published pass-by and diverted rates can be found in the Trip Generation Handbook
(reference 3). Based on the more recently published information, 34% of the trips on the
road are new trips, as opposed to the 48% new trips used in the tabulated TIP rates.
Internal Trip Calculation
The ITE Trip Generation Handbook bases internal trip estimates on the maximum number of
trips that one use can contribute to another use. For retail uses, it was found that on a daily basis,
up to 30% of outbound trips from retail uses travel to another retail use in the same development,
and up to 28% of inbound trips to retail have visited another retail use. To calculate the
percentage of trips at the Safeway that will be internal to the overall retail development, Table 2
presents the demand for internal trips to and from Safeway for both Safeway and the other uses
within the development. The uses and the majority of trip generation estimates shown in Table 2
are taken from Summary of Analysis - Woodburn Safeway Highway 99E/Highway 211
(reference 5).

As shown in Table 2, the number of internal trips is controlled by the non-Safeway uses. That is,
the potential for internal trips to and from the other uses in the development is less than the
supply of potential internal trips from Safeway. It is estimated that a total of 1,612 daily trips to
and from Safeway will be internal to the development, which is 25% of the total trips generated
by Safeway. The Trip Generation Handbook indicates that internal trip factors are to be applied
prior to any reductions for pass-by or diverted trips are taken.

Results
Based on deducting for internal trips, the most recent published ITE net new trip data and the trip
cost from the most recent TIP schedule, the TIF contribution will be $467,533.15, which is
approximately 56% of the tabulated value methodology.
CONCLUSIONS
Based on the analysis presented in this letter, we recommend that TIP for the proposed
Woodburn Safeway be $476,533.15. We request that the City of Woodburn review our
recommended TIP calculations, contact us if you have any questions/comments, and then supply
a written response regarding the City's final TIP calculation.
Again, the purpose of a Transportation Impact Fee (TIP) ordinance is to obtain revenue for
improvements to the surrounding transportation system. The TIP a development pays is in
relation to the impact it will have on the surrounding roadways. The TIP for a proposed
development should take into account the true number of new trips that a development will
generate and the proportionate impact it will have.
We trust that the information set forth in this letter adequately explains the recommended
revisions to the Woodburn Safeway TIP and the methodology that was used to derive those
revisions. Should you have any questions or comments with regard to this information, please
feel free to contact us.

Canc~llation of December 23, 2002 Meeting
Recommendation:
It is recommended the City Council cancel its December 23, 2002 meeting.
Background:
Pursuant to City Charter, the City Council is required to meet regularly, at least
once a month. The Council usually meets twice monthly to conduct City
business. The Council occasionally holds additional meetings due to pressing
business, or cancels a meeting due to holiday schedules or lack of business.
Discussion:
The Council has routinely canceled its second meeting in December because of
that meeting's proximity to the Christmas Holiday, and because far fewer
business transactions are typically necessary during the latter half of December.
Accordingly, it is recommended your Council cancel the December 23, 2002
meeting.

Subject:
Community Development Director's Action on Residential
Architectural Standard Substitution 02-02.
On December 5, 2002, the Community Development Director approved an application
to allow alternate architectural elements to substitute for one required architectural
standard. This decision is final unless appealed or the City Council calls this decision
up for review.
Applicant & Property Owner:
Don Comstock
12020 SW 118th Street
Tigard, OR 97223
NATURE OF APPLICATION: The applicant requests approval to allow two alternate
architectural elements to substitute for not meeting one residential architectural
standard. The affected standard requires 25 year architectural style roofing.
The two alternate architectural elements that the applicant proposes to substitute for not
meeting the one residential architectural standard that requires 25 year architectural
style roofing are described as follows:
1. A minimum 4:12 roof pitch of a home is required in Section 3.107.03.8.1.a. of the
WDO. The applicant is proposing to exceed this standard by providing a roof pitch
of 8:12.
2. A minimum porch area of 48 square feet is required in Section 3.107.03.E.2.a. The
applicant is proposing a 95 square foot porch which exceeds this standard.
RELEVANT FACTS: The subject site is located at 1084 Comstock Way in the
Meadowwood Subdivision, further identified on Marion County Assessor maps as
Township 5 South, Range 1 West, Section 18CA, Tax Lot 15100, lot 47.
The subject property is zoned Single-Family Residential (RS). Existing single family
dwellings are located to the north, south, west and east (across Comstock Way) of the

subject site. Site-built homes are subject to the design standards in Section 3.107.03 of
the WOO. If these design standards are not met, then the applicant is required to apply
for and receive approval for a residential architectural standard substitution.
The standard the applicant is proposing to substitute on the home is the roof material.
Composition roofing is proposed, and the design standard in the WOO requires 25 year
architectural style composition roofing. The applicant proposes to provide 3-tab
composition roofing which does not meet this design standard.
The remaining design standards required in the WOO for a site-built home in the RS
zone are satisfied.
