Councilor Cox questioned if the project will be accomplished this fiscal year since the project design still needs to be developed. Administrator Brown stated that the project should be completed during this budget cycle since the design phase will not take that long to complete. He felt that the constraints on this project will be related to the acquisition of the piece of property that sits within the larger footprint of the parking lot.

A) Administrator Brown stated that Public Works Director has been on medical leave over the last couple of weeks and he is recovering from his illness. It is anticipated that he will be out for another two weeks and, in the meantime, the deputy directors are keeping the department operating smoothly. B) Public Works Manager Randy Rohman updated the Council on the status of the City's water supply. He stated that water conservation is encouraged since water usage is higher than last year due to warmer weather conditions. The higher usage does put a strain on the wells and the public is being asked to water their lawns in either the early morning hours or after 10:00 pm in the evenings. Councilor McCallum questioned if the increased number of business and housing units in the City is a major factor in the usage increase. Manager Rohman stated that the increased number of units has some effect, however, the warmer temperature and limited storage reservoir capacity has a greater impact. The water table is going down but that is not uncommon during the summer months and, during the winter months, the water table is replenished. It was also noted that the new wells and water storage facilities to be installed over the next couple of years will help take care of this problem. 1476 MAYOR AND COUNCIL REPORTS. Councilor Cox commented on how the Mayor and Councilors had expressed many positive comments about the 4th of July Celebration and Fireworks display but there were a number of letters to the editor in the Woodburn Independent regarding the parking and traffic situation at the park. He suggested that the organizers look into the possibility of making arrangements with the owners of the field across from the park to allow parking of vehicles for this event or to look at other options that may be available. Mayor Figley stated that the individuals involved with the planning of this event will be Ioo~ing into this issue and see what can be done to improve the situation for next year. Councilor Nichols stated that he was pleased with the accomplishments of the Cascade Surge this year and the games were well attended by local fans. Councilor Veliz stated that the Copa Mexico soccer event was held in Woodburn a couple of weeks ago and there was a good turnout to this first-time event for the Latino Page 5 - Council Meeting Minutes, July 28, 2003 COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES J U LY 28, 2003 TAPE READING 1753 Educational and Recreational Network (L.E.a.R.N.).

Mayor Figley stated that she, along with Park Director Westrick and three other people associated with the Community Center group, went on a field trip last Saturday and they visited 5 different facilities located in towns of about 7,000-8,000 population which are considered more like blue-collar communities rather than using Portland metro community centers as model centers. She was pleased with the quality of all of the facilities and the Community Center group will do some debriefing to determine what type of facility would work best to meet our community needs for the future. 1900 1940 EXECUTIVE SESSION.

Motion was seconded by Commissioner Gri.qorieff. Motion unanimously carried. BUSINESS FROM THE AUDIENCE None COMMUNICATIONS A__=. Woodburn City Council Minutes of May 27, 2003. Vice Cha rperson Youn.q inquired whether anything will be coming forward from the JLR/Bruce Pack request for City services or will it remain a County Planning Commission issue? Staff replied they are currently in the waiting process and indicated the City Council's position is that the City will stop providing sewer service unless they commit to Annex. Vice Chairperson Youn.q commented that seems consistent with what was proposed for Food Services of America. PUBLIC HEARING None ITEMS FOR ACTION A. Final Order for Conditional Use 03-02, Design Review 03-03, Variance 03-18 and Phasing Plan 03-01, request to construct permanent classrooms at the Woodburn High School, 1785 N. Front St., Woodburn School District, applicant. Commissioner Lonergan moved to adopt the final order as presented. Vice Chairperson Youn.q requested clarification regarding Condition Item #4 and indicated it states in the Final Order that the applicant will be filing for a Variance. Staff remarked he believed a Variance application has not been submitted and clarified the applicant still had Planning Commission Meeting - June 26, 2003 Page 1 of 3 8 to show it on the plan. However, the applicant has the option of applying for a Variance and obtaining approval prior to getting occupancy of the building. Staff pointed out the addition of verbiage to Condition Item ¢¢4. He explained the condition was written to kick the final occupancy to the second phase of the project which means they may obtain the permit for the first phase. Vice Chairperson Young seconded Commissioner Lonergan's motion. Motion carried unanimously. B. Final Order for Conditional Use 03-04, conditional use to allow money transfer business located at 1165 N. Pacific Hwy., Mexico Transfers, Inc., applicant. A motion was made by Vice Chairperson Youn.q to accept Conditional Use 03-04 Final Order as presented by Staff. Commissioner Loner.qan seconded the motion, which unanimously carried. C. Proposed securitv fencin.q for the Parr Road Water Treatment Plan site located at 828 Parr -- Road (Case File Nos. ANX 01-04, ZC 01-03, CU 02-08, DR 02-19, VAR 03-03, Var 03-04, VAR 03- 05 & EXCP 03-03. D. Proposed security fencin.q for Country Club Road Water Treatment Plant located at 1084 -- Country Club Road (Case File Nos. CU 02-05, DR 02-16, VAR 03-06 & VAR 03-07). Randy Rohman addressed both Water Treatment Plan Final Orders and reported the concrete block wall came out to about $210 per lineal foot and the chain link 6 ft. tall with the plastic slats came out to approximately $30 a lineal foot. He indicated that added up to a differential cost of approximately $180 a square foot. Mr. Rohman further explained it would have added approximately $497,000 on to the cost of the treatment project if they were to put the concrete block wall around the entire site. Prior commitments were made to City Council not to exceed a value that was stated in the 1996 Master Plan for Treatment Plant construction. He also stated they felt it is probably a little more critical and they could see the potential benefit to screening the east and west sides of Country Club Rd. as there is a residential area along there and are proposing to build the block wall on the east and west sides of the Country Club Rd. site. Additionally, they would propose a chain link fence with the plastic slats along the Country Club Rd. frontage as it will be a little bit more of a well traveled street. Mr. Rohman further reported they propose to install a 6 ft. chain link fence around the entire Parr Rd. site with the plastic slats. The cost of the Treatment Plant will be increased by approximately $130,000, saving approximately $366,000 from the estimated cost of the Treatment Plan construction. In closing, Mr. Rohman stated although the proposal may not meet all of what was expressed at the Planning Commission hearing as to what they were looking for, the proposal is what they feel is economically sound and also is probably the most beneficial for the surrounding properties. Commissioner Gri.qorieff inquired whether bids from various contractors were obtained? Randy Rohman responded their consulting engineer provided them with estimates for treatment plant construction. He further explained the consulting engineer went back and looked at several types of fencing that they have bid at other parts of Oregon and the West Coast and came up with what they have seen as a prevalent cost for these types of fencing in other projects they have done. Mr. Rohman further reported they estimated based on their experience and they did not actually go out and get a contractors bid. However, they are just in the process of bidding right now. Commissioner Lonerclan questioned how secure are these types of fencing? Randy Rohman replied they have included a hayer type of security with the fence being the initial layer and there will be various other layers. Moreover, there will be other detection systems as you go across the fence and before you enter into the building as well as various detection systems on the storage reservoirs. Commissioner Loner,qan further stated he needs to be convinced that this will be a secure site. Randy Rohman answered he is comfortable with the fact that it will be a secure site the way the project is designed. He further explained they enhanced some of the detection systems that come after the fence and decreased the distance between the various sensors on the inside of the fence. There were also Planning Commission Meeting - June 26, 2003 Page 2 of 3 modifications made to the actual security system. Vice Chairperson Younq thought Public Works has listened to the concerns of the Planning Commission and developed a contingency plan that has been presented using more electronic security and using the fence more as just a sight obscuring part of their security. He felt this seems to be a reasonable solution. Commissioner Lonerqan moved to approve the proposed security fencing for Parr Rd. Water Treatment Plant and Country Club Rd. Water Treatment Plant as presented tonight. Motion was seconded by Commissioner Gri.qorieff, which unanimously carried. DISCUSSION ITEMS Vice Chairperson Younq inquired whether there would be a difference in the rate for Traffic Impact fees (TIFS) between the County and the City? He also questioned if improvements, i.e. painting a building, warrant a higher rate? Staff answered there will probably be a difference in the rate for TIFS as each jurisdiction sets their own fee and there are various factors involved. He also stated TIFS are based on capital improvement programs. Staff further reported TIFS are based on use and square footage of that use. REPORTS A._:.

Randall Westrick, Recreation and Parks DirectorlJ- SUBJECT: WMAC Statistics RECOMMENDATION: Receive the report. BACKGROUND: Last May the Recreation and Parks Department began the practice of providing the City Council with monthly reports that track revenue and attendance at the Aquatic Center. When the City Council reviewed that report, staff was asked to begin compiling more detailed information on visitor demographics. DISCUSSION: Attached for the Mayor and City Council's review is the July 2003 report. Beginning with this month, staff is also compiling demographic information that will track visitation to recreation swims by age group. That report is also attached. The Revenue Comparison report shows that July revenue for 2003 has exceeded 2002 by $3,195. The report also indicates that attendance is down by 939. The reduction in attendance is a result of more accurate counting methods. In the past, all visits to the Aquatic Center were counted. This included parents and families visiting during lessons and other swim sessions that were not participating in a program or otherwise using Center facilities. Now, only visitors who are actually participating in a swim session or enrolled and involved in a program are counted. FINANCIAL IMPACT: None noted.

Randall Westrick, Recreation and Parks Director ~ SUBJECT: League of Oregon Cities- Youth Program Report RECOMMENDATION: Receive the information. BACKGROUND: This month, the League of Oregon Cities released "involving, Educating and Engaging; Youth Programs in Oregon's Cities." This publication is a compilation of the most effective youth programs offered by cities in Oregon. To select the programs evaluated, the League objectively reviewed 97 different programs considering four criteria including: uniqueness; transferability; youth engagement; and level of city involvement. DISCUSSION: As a result of the League's scoring criteria, Teen Scene emerged as the top program serving various ages among cities with a population between 9,000 and 30,000. Attached for the Mayor and Council are excerpts from the report. The full report is available in the Recreation and Parks Office and the City Administrator's Office. Recreation Division staff has received significant interest from other communities in Oregon regarding Teen Scene. Therefore, staff has organized an educational session for presentation at the Oregon Recreation and Park Association's annual conference in October. The session is tilted, Creating Partnerships ta Develop Teen Pragrams; Methods to rally community partnerships to fund, plan and operate teen programs. Woodburn Together has received word from OJJDP that the grant that funds Teen Scene has been renewed for the 2003-04 fiscal year. FINANCIAL IMPACT: None noted.

As important as each of these elements are, cities also have another responsibility to fulfill as a participant in the positive development of local youth. At first, this may seem an unlikely fit for a body that is more familiar with fixing potholes and replacing water mains. However, cities, as a unique type of community, have an integral role in promoting healthy and engaged youth. The report Broadening the Bounds of Youth Development explains, "Young people grow up in communities, not programs, and efforts to promote positive youth development must be focused on the overall context in which that development occurs.'*~ The ancient African proverb captures the concept most succinctly: It takes a whole village to raise a child. But what does "raising" a child actually mean to a city? What exactly is youth development? The answer is not easily categorized. Youth, or individuals from birth to age 18, go through very distinct development stages and their needs vary depending on gender, race, income, ability and family support. As the study Youth Development: Issues, Challenges and Directions discusses, youth development programs are numerous in design and purpose: "Positive youth development is not a single program, and does not bring to mind any particular substantive action or content... Effective youth work is creative and ' Mohamed, Inca and Wendy Wheeler. Broadening the Bounds of }buth Development.

With such a vague definition of what it means to participate in youth development activities, cities may find themselves asking exactly how to proceed. With that concern in mind, the League of Oregon Cities developed Involving, Educating and Engaging: Youth Programs in Oregon's Cities as a reference tool.

Throughout the 1990s, the "Youth policy in the United States historically has been characterized by a fragmented set of programs with no center. No single entity addresses youth issues holistically at the national level." - James P. Connell, et al. Youth Development in Community Settings: Challenges to Our Field and Our Approach, 2000 country saw a surge in violence perpetrated by youth.4 This violence was not limited to inner cities, but stretched across lines of poverty and race, as the citizens of Springfield, Oregon witnessed in 1998. The desire to prevent future violence was then coupled with a new, more holistic approach to youth development. Before the 1990s, youth development strategies were mostly reactive in nature and addressed problems in youth after they occurred. Over the last 10 years public policy shifted significantly: The new orientation is more attuned to the basic needs and stages of a youth's development rather than on simply "fixing" whatever "problem" may have arisen. It focuses on youth's need for positive, ongoing relationships with both adults and other youth; for active involvement in community life; and for a variety of positive choices in how they spend nonschool time. It aims to build strengths as well as reduce weaknesses.5 The policy change has not been without barriers as many youth development programs are not adequately funded. The funding opportunities that are available have become increasingly competitive as the demand for youth programs has grown.6 In addition, as a relatively new field, youth development is not yet heavily researched and studied.7 4 Public/Private Ventures (8). s Public/Private Ventures (9). 6 Padgette, Heather. Finding Funding: A Guide to Federal Sources for Out-of-School ITme and Community School Initiatives.

Studies have shown that youth programs result in reduced dropout rates, lower crime rates and a reduction in need for emergency services.~ The investment can be quantified in that for every dollar spent on youth programs, society potentially sees $7-10 in return.9 In 2000, the League of Oregon Cities Special Committee on Youth found that the earlier such investments are made in the course ora youth's life, long-term costs are reduced even further. "The costs of not providing programs far exceed the actual price of program provision when compared to relative costs of incarceration or health care.'' ~0 In addition to reducing long-term costs, the National League of Cities (NLC) found that dedication to youth programs also helps to "level the playing field," economically, racially and ethnically, and such programs are an additional incentive in attracting a strong work force. ~ "Institute for Youth, Education, and Families.

There is conclusive evidence that kids in Oregon who participate in after-school programs generally make healthier choices for themselves.., and have fewer incidences of juvenile crime or violence tendencies." -LOC Special Committee on Youth, 2000 While the benefits communities receive from supporting youth programs are great, the effects on the individual participants are even more impressive. The positive outcomes for youth on a personal level include: "bolstered self-esteem, improved academic attainment and aspirations, lower rates of delinquency, higher levels of political and civic engagement, and the development of leadership skills and peer popularity." ~2 Cities have an additional stake in promoting youth development outside of the standard K- 12 educational system. Individuals from birth to age 18 make up 24.7 percent of Oregon's population, 13 creating a large constituency whose input is important in cultivating tomorrow's community leaders. Involving youth in local government is one way to invigorate civic affairs: During adolescence, many young people are driven to explore issues of social justice. They are creating and experimenting with their own principles and ideas... Consequently, in many organizations, the young people become the keepers of the vision. They are the ones who focus on a mission? The relationships between youth and adults are reciprocal. Youth learn from the adults' life experiences and adults are encouraged, through the youths' inquisitive nature, to examine old problems in a new light. ~2 Russell, Stephen T.

The most prominent of these themes were utilizing volunteers, partnering with local schools and designing flexible programs to allow lbr the unpredictable nature of working with youth. Utilizing Volunteers In one third of the programs profiled, volunteers were crucial to program success. These volunteers, most of whom work tbr the city, facilitated all or most of the individual programs by adding additional tasks to an already full- time list of duties. This phenomenon reflects the difficulty of funding youth- based initiatives and presents some continuity barriers. Ifa program depends solely on a volunteer's efforts, and that person leaves, it may be difficult to recruit a willing and capable replacement. Most of the remaining programs profiled also utilized some sort of additional volunteer assistance, usually from parents. Partnering with Local Schools As important as volunteers are in facilitating youth development programs, partnerships with local schools are even more critical. Over two thirds of the programs profiled worked very closely with the school through the donation of facilities or used the school as a means to publicize program eftbrts. Overall Flexibility In all of the programs profiled, an overall attitude of flexibility was apparent. This flexibility was exhibited by the attitude of program directors, who changed leadership strategies to accommodate the unforeseen needs of the youth involved. A majority of the programs profiled also underwent a period of adjustment which can be attributed to program age; many of these programs have been in place five years or less. 6 2"/ Population: · 20,860 Age group 2rogram serves: · Middle school and high school aged stu- dents. Program Description: Teen Scene is an after school program consist- ing of lwo sil'es, The Spot and The Club, for Woodbuln's middle and high school aged stu- dents. One of the main objectives of Teen Scene is to reduce drug, alcohol and tobacco use in area youth. Program Cost: Community padners in Woodburn secured a $87,000 federal grant and provided matchir~ funds. In October 2002, Woodbum Together received an $87,000 grant from the U.S. Department of Justice's Drug Free Communities Support program to fund the Teen Scene program for middle and high school aged students. Community partners Woodbum Together, the City of Woodbum and the Woodbum School District also provided $87,000 in matching funds. Of the total budget, a majority was designated for staffing and facility costs. Woodbum Together Grant Writer and City of Woodbum Recreation Service Manager Brian Sjothun worked for five years to secure the funding to implement Teen Scene for Woodbum's youth in an effort to reduce drug, alcohol and tobacco use. The effects of the center on reducing at-risk behavior will be measured, in part, by the Oregon Healthy Teens survey which is administered by the Woodbum School District. The Scene With the federal funding in place, the panners worked to open two after school program sites, which are directly supervised by the Woodbum Recreation and Parks Department. On February 24, 2003 The Spot, the high school after-school center, opened at Legion Park. The Spot is open 9.8 Monday through Friday, from 3:00-8:00 p.m. On March 31,2003 a middle school venue called The Club opened at Settlemier Park, near the city's new skate park. The centers are designed to be student friendly, with bean bag chairs, couches, a stereo, a TV and a VCR. Over 50 high school students and 100 middle school students initially registered for both programs. By the end of the 2003 school year those numbers had grown, with 75 high school students and 180 middle school students enrolled in the program. For Teens, By Teens An integral aspect to getting the sites ready was the formation of the high school and middle school youth councils, who helped to develop the center's rules and mission statement, which reflect the goals of the teens in wanting a place to socialize and the overall effort to reduce at-risk behavior. The high school council also helps to design programming, including service projects, games, trips and homework assistance. The Spot and The Club members can participate in community service programs such as Graffiti Busters and Meals on Wheels to earn points towards center sponsored trips. For those cities looking to create a similar program, Sjothun advises to include local youth in the program design. "The program has surpassed our first year projections. The students have been very proactive in making this program work for them and providing suggestions on what to improve upon," says Sjothun. Sjothun also recommends visiting other communities with similar programs and becoming familiar with federal requirements. Teen Scene Mission Statement We are committed to creating a positive environment of diversity through healthy, exciting and fun activities that appeal to today's teens in our community.

Brown, City Administrat~ Downtown Parking Lot Closure for September 16th Celebration RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended the City Council adopt the attached Ordinance Prohibiting Parking in a Portion of the Downtown Area to Prevent Interference with the 2003 September 16tn Celebration. BACKGROUND: September 16m marks the 193rd anniversary of Mexico's independence from Spain. The date is observed as a holiday in Mexico and is recognized for its importance in many cities in the United States. City staff, in cooperation with merchants, Centro Mexicano de Oregon, and the Mexican Consulate in Portland is organizing a traditional September 16th celebration to be held in the Woodburn downtown. The event will be held in the downtown parking lot, with remaining activities conducted at Library Park. DISCUSSION: The organizers of this event plan to hold the September 16th celebration on Saturday September 13th and Sunday September 14th, from 10 am until 9 pm. The event is scheduled to take advantage of the weekend. The high point of the event will be "El Grito" (the shout), for which the Mexican Consulate of Portland will be in attendance. The remainder of the event is two days of traditional Mexican games, food, music, and story telling, aimed at sharing the Mexican Independence day experience with the Woodburn community. The event will be promoted and sponsored by local and regional radio stations, downtown merchants, and organizations such as Oregon State University, Silverton Hospital, and the Woodburn Downtown Association. Consistent with the City Council's goals related to special events, the City's participation in this event is limited to planning and coordination, providing locations for activities, Agenda Item Review: City ^dministrator~'~r City Attorney/(/~ Finance 30 Mayor and City Council August 11,2003 Page 2 and insurance coverage. Although there will be Police on duty in the vicinity of the event, security will be provided under private contract and funded by radio station sponsors. Admission to the event will be free, although patrons will be asked to contribute canned and packaged foods to the Aware Food Bank. As a first-year event, attendance is difficult to estimate. Regional rodio coverage suggests attendance could be large. The event, however, is being held on the same weekend as Mt. Angel's OctoberFest, which may reduce crowd size. Staff is securing a variety of off-site parking and transit shuttle services, in the event attendance is high, to minimize the impact of parking on surrounding neighborhoods. Parking locations and instructions will be included in radio advertising. The attachments to this report, prepared by the Community Relations Officer, provide a summary of the goals and objectives of this event, sponsors and participants, planned activities, and the layout of vendor booths and activities on the parking lot. The Community Relations Officer will attend your August 11,2003 meeting to answer any questions you may have regarding the event. To facilitate this event, the parking lot needs to be closed from Friday night until Sunday evening, to assure the lot is clear from obstructions and vehicles and ready for set up prior to start time. As was done with for the Saturday Market in 2000, it is necessary to adopt an enabling ordinance to close the parking lot and allow for parking enforcement. Signs indicating that parking is prohibited in the lot during specified hours must also be posted before enforcement can occur. A portion of the downtown parking lot is privately owned. The owners of that portion of the lot have agreed to allow the event to use, and restricted parking on, their property, if the City will execute a license agreement and extend liability insurance coverage to the property during the event. This is the same arrangement the Council approved in 2000 for the Saturday Market, and worked to the satisfaction of both parties. Staff will coordinate execution of such a licensing agreement with your approval of the attached ordinance. The September 16th celebration provides an opportunity for cross-cultural sharing and family oriented entertainment. It also satisfies Council goals for celebrating culture and diversity, and will benefit both downtown businesses and the Woodburn community. As such, your approval of the attached ordinance is respectfully requested. FINANCIAL IMPACT: None estimated. COUNCIL BILL NO. ORDINANCE NO.

Russell, Chief of Police,b~' Liquor License Application - Greater Privileqe - Full On-Premise Sales for Salvador's Bakery III Salvador's Bakery III 320 N. Pacific Hwy Woodburn, OR 97071 Salvador Larios, Owner RECOMMENDATION: The Woodburn City Council approve a Full On-Premise Sales liquor license for Salvador's Bakery III BACKGROUND: On April 19, 2003 the Woodburn Police Department received notice from Salvador Larios highlighting the operating conditions changes he wished to make to Salvador's Bakery III located at 320 N. Pacific Hwy. and.giving notice that the changes had been submitted to OLCC for approval. City Council was advised of these changes and OLCC subsequently approved the changes. On July 24, 2003 the Woodburn Police Department received an application from Salvador's Bakery III for a greater privilege liquor license granting them a Full On-Premise License allowing for the sale of distilled spirits, malt beverages, and wine for consumption on the premises. Salvador's Bakery III currently holds a Limited On-Premise Sales License. The Police Department responded to 25 calls for service at this location in the last 12 months. There were no reported liquor violations. The police department has completed a limited background investigation on the applicant business and found no~i~ of a questionable nature. An in- Agenda Item Review: City Adminlstrat~-'¥'_v'~'4'~' City Attorney ~ Finance 43 Mayor and City Council August 11, 2003 Page 2 depth investigation was completed on owner/managers and no offenses that would preclude a license being issued, and no changes in applicant status since this year's renewal investigation. DISCUSSION: In April of 2003 police department staff met with Mr. Larios and requested that he take some additional steps to ensure criminal conduct did not occur as a result of his business change, he agreed and entered into a compliance plan at that time. The operational hours of the business and conditions have not changed since my last report to council on the business change in April 2003. Mr. Larios was asked the reason for the requested additional change and he stated that it was for financial reasons. He was also asked what changes he intended to make if the application was approved and he responded that he would be increasing the frequency of live music and dancing in the restaurant portion of the facility. The police department has reservations about the need for such a license change given: the nature of the business (a bakery/food/grocery store); the proximity to the Highway 99E Safety Corridor; and the amount of Full On-Premise Licenses already in the area. Due to these factors it would be the police departments preference to recommend denial, however City policy, Oregon Revised Statutes, Oregon Administrative Rules, and OLCC rules do not allow such a recommendation. By design our City policy on OLCC matters is positioned at the upper limits of what the law allows, any recommendation beyond these limits would overstep our authority. The only area, upon which a denial could be reasonably based by statute, is a case of demonstrated "lack of need" for additional licensees. But in discussions with OLCC officials they advised that a local government has never successfully argued this limitation and they see no other reason to deny the license. The police department recommendation is only one component of the process. The City Council ultimately makes the recommendation to OLCC, and the final decision rests with OLCC. The OLCC, however, has advised that they see no reason to deny the license. The police department recommendation in this case is based solely on the limits of the current law. FINANCIAL IMPACT: None WOODBURN llA August 11,2003 TO: FROM: SUBJECT: Mayor and City Council through City Administrator A Jim Mulder, Director of Community Development Appeal of Design Review 02-12 and Variance 03-01 "Coastal Farm Supply Expansion" located at 1550 Mt. Hood Avenue RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the City Council act by motion to continue the public hearing on Design Review 02-12 and Variance 03-01 to the City Council meeting of September 22, 2003 pursuant to the applicant's request. BACKGROUND: At their hearing of April 24, 2003, the Planning Commission considered a request by Coastal Farm Supply to construct a 10,250 square foot addition to an existing 28,500 square foot retail building occupied by Coastal Farm Supply in the Commercial General (CG) zoning district. In addition, the applicant requested a variance from the Woodburn Development Ordinance Section 2.106.05.C.2 which requires a solid brick or architectural wall adjacent to an RS, RIS, or RM zone. The applicant proposed to substitute an existing berm, chain link fence with slats, and landscaping for the required wall. On May 8, 2003, the Planning Commission approved a final order approving Design Review 02-12 and denying Variance 03-01. The Planning Commission's decision was subsequently appealed by Coastal Farm Supply. This public hearing is to consider that appeal and has been noticed as a de novo hearing which allows new evidence and testimony to be presented by any party. DISCUSSION: The applicant is requesting another continuance of the public hearing for the appeal of Design Review 02-12 and Variance 03-01 "Coastal Farm Supply Expansion" from August 11,2003 to September 22, 2003. The applicant has Agenda Item Review: City Administrator~ City Attorney Finance 45 Mayor and City Council August 11,2003 Page 2 granted an extension of the 120 day rule from August 28, 2003 to October 17, 2003 to allow for the requested continuance.

BACKGROUND: The unimproved 50 foot right of way of Thorn Street that intersects with Settlemier Avenue varies from 82.77 feet to 99.71 feet in depth. This right of way has not been developed and the east end is the defined boundary of Settlemier Park (see Attachment A). The adjacent property owner to the north has been using an approach from Settlemier Avenue on the north side of the right of way for access for many years. The property owner has agreed that the property be vacated. The procedures for vacation of a street right of way are defined in ORS 271.080 through 271.230. By ORS 271.130, the Council, on June 23, 2003, moved by motion to vacate the above section of city street right of way. Notice of the public hearing was given pursuant to ORS 271.110. Public notices were published in the Woodburn Independent on July 26, 2003 and July 30, 2003 and individual property owners in the affected area were sent a notice of the hearing. Public notices were also posted at either end of the proposed vacation 14 days prior to the hearing. The City Council may not vacate the city street right of way if the owners of a majority of property in the affected area, as defined in ORS 271.080, object in writing. DISCUSSION: ORS 271.080 specifies the real property area that is affected by a vacation action. Attachment B is a drawing that outlines the affected area around the proposed Thorn Street right of way vacation as described in that section of statute. If a non-consenting abutting property owner's property would be substantially affected, provisions must be made for paying damages before the vacation can be granted. A vacation action can only "substantially affect" abutting property if it prevents public access to the property. No property in the affected area meets the "substantially affect" definition in statue. Agenda Item Review: City Administrato~~'~ City Attorney ./gt~, ~ Finance __ 4.8 Mayor and City Council Augus'~ 5, 2003 Page 2 The proposal is that the right of way be divided equally (25 feet to each property) between the property owners abutting the property to the north and south. The City of Woodburn is the property owner to the south and the property would be used as part of Settlemier Park. The resident to the north has used the right of way for access through an existing driveway approach for many years and with Settlemier Park on the east end of the right of way there is no identified current or future need for the right of way. The defined limits of Settlemier Park are outlined in Attachement A. The existing Third Street right of way is included in the legally defined limits of Settlemier Park. The portion of Thorn Street will not be a part of the legally defined park but will be considered as part of the park in a manner similar to the short section of Third Street that is adjacent to Oak and is a designated pedestrian entrance to the park in the proposed Settlemier Park Master Plan. It is appropriate that this section of Thorn Street right of way be vacated with half going to the city and the remaining half to the property owner to the north. There is an existing park entrance just to the south of the proposed vacation. There is no projected need to utilize this area as an entrance to the park. Vacation will allow the city to install a planned permanent fence on the newly established property line. This fence will provide a permanent separation between the residential properties and the park property and discourage use of this area as a non-designated park entrance. Vacation of this right of way will allow installation of the fence and also continued use by the property owner to the north of the Settlemier Avenue access. FINANCIAL IMPACT: There is minimal impact. The portion of the right of way vacated to the north will become part of that residential lot and returned to the tax roles. The increased lot size may cause a small increase in assessed valuation and property tax assessment. ATTACHMENT A x / r' r' ~ ?

RECOMMENDATION: No action is recommended. This item is placed before the City Council for information purposes in compliance with the Woodburn Development Ordinance. The City Council may call up this item for review if it desires. BACKGROUND: On July 30, 2003, the Community Development Director approved the applicant's request for administrative design review approval of a 998 square foot addition (new dining room) to the existing Denny's Restaurant. The subject site (1.32 acres) is located at 2919 Newberg Highway and further identified on Marion County Tax Assessor's Maps as T5S, R2W, Sections 12AC, Tax Lot 4400. No wetlands are located on the subject site and it is located outside of the 500 year floodplain. The subject property is zoned Commercial General (CG) and designated as Commercial on the Woodburn Comprehensive Plan Map. All of the surrounding properties are also zoned CG and designated as Commercial on the Woodburn Comprehensive Plan Map. Interstate 5 is located to the west of the subject site. The property to the east is vacant. Commercial businesses are located to the north and south of the subject site. A 50 foot wide looped private access easement connects the subject site to Newberg Highway. The easement was created when a lot was divided into three parcels (the Denny's site was one of the parcels) as part of Minor Partition Case File No. 91-05A.
