Bill Wettstein, 1106 N Third, stated that he, along with his neighbors Mr. Jackson and

Third Streets. Last year, they had paid to have the roadway paved with emulsified asphalt
with the intention of doing it again, however, there has been so much traffic on Yew
Street that it did not last through the winter. A portion of the problem stems from young
people who hot rod on the loose gravel. Additionally, they are seeing an increase in

traffic from St. Luke's Church parishioners since this is the only street north of the
Church connecting, and once a week United Disposal makes up to 8 trips a day with their
heavy trucks. The street is full of potholes, dusty, and unbearable with the amount of
traffic. Second and Third Streets are also used as a racetrack which makes the problem
even worse. They suggested that the Council pave the street or close it off it the middle
and make it a dead-end street. He stated that they have had to put up with this problem
for a long time and the City does not seem to want to do anything about it. Staff has told
them that paving the street would require curbs and sidewalks and the residents abutting
this street cannot afford to pay for improvements to the extent the City would be requiring
in order to meet existing roadway standards. He requested that counters be placed on the
street to provide necessary traffic information to determine if the street should be paved

FACTORY OUTLET CENTER.
Councilor Chadwick introduced Council Bill 1977. Recorder Tennant read the two
readings of the bill by title only since there were no objections from the Council.
Attorney Shields stated that the Council, in their previous motion, had directed staff to
prepare an ordinance for the final land use action and the attorney for the applicant to
prepare the findings, conclusions, and conditions for submittal to staff for review. He
stated that the original motion did include a condition pertaining to traffic impact
mitigation and that staff had included the condition (Exhibit B, page 24 of 24, under
Conclusions IV(6)) in the Council Bill. Options available to the Council are 1) to make a
motion to incorporate IV(6) into the conditions of Council Bill 1977 thereby clarifying
their intent and to direct staff to revise the.findihgs?0n~luSi~ti~ an~ Cbi~ditions, o~ 2): .- -

previous Understanding of the Council's motion. He reminded_the COuncil that this was a
land use issue and the public hearing has been closed, however, the Council could hear
from the applicant's attorney as to whether or not the condition should be included in the
conditions but cautioned the Council that no new testimony can be taken by the Council
without re-noticing and re-opening the hearing.
Councilor Figley expressed her opinion that the condition needs to be clarified what her
intention was at the time the original motion was made following the close of the public
hearing. It was her intent to require the applicant to do another traffic study only in
extreme circumstances since the applicant had already done a traffic study considering a
three phase project even though the initial application was for only the first of three
phases. The City could initiate their own study in the future if they felt it was necessary
and traffic impact fees could be adjusted based on the study results. Additionally, the
City should not waive their rights until there is some actual experience on the impact
which will be available by the time the developer submits his site plan for Phases 11 and
I1/. She reminded the developer that the City did leave out some conditions that ODOT
and the Planning Commission wanted included in the final order but the Council realized
that the developer should only have to pay or make improvements based on impact
created.
FIGLEY/KILMURRAY... amend IV(6) to read that no additional traffic impact study
be required of applicant and that the issue of traffic impact mitigation be required at the
site plan stage.
Councilor Pugh stated that he is in favor of Section IV(6) and feels that the original
motion was very clear but is willing to listen to other viewpoints before making a final
decision.

READING
The other Councilors also agreed with Councilor Figley and felt that the findings and
conclusions needed to be amended to clarify the Council's intent.
Mayor Jennings briefly described his concerns regarding the traffic impact study issue
and stated that the developer has a right to know if the City would be pursuing a new
study utilizing different data which would either increase or decrease his share of
infrastructure cost for Phase I1 or III.
Discussion was held as to whether or not Attorney Robinson, representing Woodbum
Company Stores, would be allowed to speak on this land use issue. A majority of the
Council objected to allowing Attorney Robinson to speak since the record is closed.
Mayor Jennings stated that he felt that the Council should allow Attorney Robinson to
speak on this land issue provided that the testimony is restricted to Section IV(6).
Attorney Shields clarified his legal advice in that the Council should resolve this issue
amongst themselves if at all possible, otherwise, ff they need to hear from the developer,
it only be through his legal representative and be reS.trieted t° Section IV(6).
Following some additional discussion on the content of the motion, Attorney Shields
reminded the Council that the motion to amend the CounciI Bill could pass by a majority
vote of the Council. However, passage o~f the Council Bill would require a unanimous
vote of the Council at the meeting it is introduced, or, at a subsequent meeting, pass by a
majority vote.
The Council reviewed the content of the amendment. Mayor Jennings called for a vote
and the motion to amend passed unanimously.
FIGLEY/PUGH... staff be directed to revise the Findings and Conclusions to be
consistent with the inclusion of condition IV(6) as amended and present the revised
Council Bill for final approval at the next meeting.
Mayor Jennings questioned if staff would be conferring with the developer's attorney
prior to submittal of the Council Bill at the next meeting.
Attorney Shields stated that he would be communicating with the developer's attorney.
Following some additional discussion on procedure, the Mayor called for a roll call vote
and the motion passed unanimously.
2638 STATUS REPORT - WOODBURN COMPANY STORF~: PHASE I.
Steve Craig, developer of Woodbum Company Stores, provided the Mayor and Council
with a status report on infrastructure improvement completion dates prior to the "soft
opening" date of July 23, 1999 and the Grand Opening date of August 19, 1999. He
stated that by July 23fa, all of the paved surface of Arney Road to Woodland will be
completed, however, the street lights and curbs are scheduled to be completed by July
30th. He clarified the meaning of "soft opening" in that it is a transitional period leading
up to the Grand Opening. It is anticipated that 25 to 30 stores will initially open on July
23rd with the rest of the stores working towards opening their stores on or before August

19th. In regards to the raised median on Highway 219, he stated that it is scheduled for
completion on August 6th and the re-striping of the bridge and Highway 214 will be
completed on August 14th. He stated that ODOT only allows contractors to do this type
of work on a Saturday night and this is the first available date that ODOT will allow the
work to be done. The sign bridge has been delayed since ODOT was unable to do the
design work in-house and it has been contracted out for completion. Until the sign bridge
is installed, ODOT will be placing temporary signs on 1-5. ODOT has also decided to
change the traffic signal interconnect and make it into a hard wire system. Until such
time as they complete design and make the necessary changes, ODOT will be periodically
adjusting the signal that was originally ordered so that the traffic signal will be operable
and coordinated as closely as possible with the timing of the other signals.
Tape 2
Steve Craig requested that a Temporary Certificate of Occupancy be granted even though
re-striping and the traffic signal interconnect will not be completed by July 23~. He
reminded the Council that the traffic signal will be activated by July 23~, the sidewalks
and curbs will be in by the fkrst part of August, the south bound ramp off of 1-5 has been
widened, and the ADA signage will be installed.
Richard McSwain, ODOT engineer, stated that the traffic interconnect will be completed
over the next several weeks. Until then, ODOT will be working with the developer and
State Police to try and keep traffic moving on Highway 214/219 and off of 1-5.
Mayor Jennings suggested that Amey Road at the Highway 219 intersection be a right
turn in/right turn out to divert motorists to the Highway 219/Woodland Ave. traffic
signal.
Don Jordan, ODOT engineer, stated that they will be placing barrels in the vicinity of the
Arney Road extension to divert traffic to Woodland Avenue and out to the traffic light.
Steve Craig also stated that they have publicized other routes for employees and
customers to take to get to the mall for the purpose of trying to reduce the amount of
traffic in the I-5 interchange area. He also expressed his thanks to Building Official Rob
Mendenhall and City staff for their assistance with this project which will soon be
completed and operational.
0490 Administrator Brown expressed his pleasure in hearing how much of the work was going
to be done by the "soft opening" date of July 23rd. He stated that this report was before
the Council at this meeting to keep them abreast of what will be done by the time the
developer plans to open the stores and, unless the Council has objections, the temporary
occupancy permits will be issued provided that all of the items on the staff report are
completed except for the items brought before the Council relating to the (1) completion
of the sidewalk, curbs, and re-striping prior to August 19th, (2) delay in the installation of
the sign bridges, and (3) delay in the hard wiring of the traffic signal.
Brief discussion was held regarding the placement of a noise barrier along Woodland
from the Arney Road extension to Highway 219. Mr. Craig stated that if the Council

Council Bill 1978 was introduced by Councilor Chadwick. Recorder Tennant read the
two readings of the bill by title only since there were no objections from the Council.
Brief discussion was held on Section 3(C) regarding the developer meeting with the
residents to resolve privacy, security, and sound abatement issues. Attorney Shields
suggested that the condition remain in the Council Bill since it was an original condition
and, from the staff's prospective, that condition has already been complied with by the
developer.
Councilor Bjelland questioned if the condition to record the conditions of approval needs
to be added to the Council Bill.

would be recording the ordinance and conditions on the subdivision.

CITY ADMINISTRATOR'S REPORT.
Administrator Brown stated that he is in the process of developing a performance
evaluation form to be used by the Council in evaluating the City Attorney and City
Administrator' s work. As part of this process in developing the evaluation form, the
Council needs to give the public an opportunity to comment on the evaluation form and,
following the receipt of public comment, the Council can finalize the form which will
then be used to evaluate these management positions. He stated that he will then utilize
this same performance evaluation form for all top managers. He briefly reviewed the
four major areas to be reviewed: work product, desirable characteristics in the employee,
interpersonal relationships, and management. He also reminded the Council that they had
previously established a pay scale which included a merit pay range and he will be
developing a performance evaluation form to be used by managers for the purpose of
implementing future merit pay increases.

PUBLIC HEARING
A. SPR 99-03, Unocal 76 Station, Adjacent to Oil Can Henry's
Staff read applicable ORS statement and provided presentation as reflected in the Staff
Report.
Testimony by Applicant
Peter Kappertz, Kappertz Design Corp., 11930 SE Zion Hill Dr., Gresham, OR stated that
they are employed by Stein Oil Co. to develop this site plan. He commented that they
realized that 4 dispensers with 8 fueling positions as originally proposed were quite an
intensive use for this size lot. Mr. Kappertz further added that the plan before the
Commission shows a facility with only 3 dispensers and 6 fueling positions. He explained
that they will be receiving a letter from Bi-Mad in support of this development and
acknowledgment that the easements are recorded and available for their use because they
Planning Commission Meeting - July 8, 1999 page 1 of 8
benefit the parcel they are proposing to develop. He pointed out that their customers will
be already on the road thus, they will not be creating more traffic.
Questions
Commissioner Lonergan inquired as to the size of the tanks.
Peter Kappertz. replied they have a 20,000 gallon tank and a 12,000 gallon tank that is split
into 2 compartments to provide 2 products in 1 tank and the vents will be going up the side
of their utility building.
Commissioner Lonergan also asked whether it will be paved over?
Peter Kappertz said it is a drive able surface. He stated that the minimum volume to make
this site justifiable in terms of capital expenses would be about 100,000 gallons a month.
Commissioner Lonerqan questioned whether this facility will be a 24 hour operation?
Bob Stein, President of Stein Oil Co. interjected to say that at this point in time it will not
be a 24 hour operation unless there is sufficient traffic in business.
Vice Chairperson Cox expressed his appreciation to the applicant for putting in the extra
work to make some beneficial changes. More importantly, that they have given the
Commission clearer information and documentation.
Commissioner Lima asked how many types of fuel will be dispensed?
Peter Kappertz stated they are looking at a total of 4 products, 3 gasoline products and 1
diesel. They are only going to store 3 products and the mid-grade will be blended between
super and unleaded.
Commissioner Lima stated that there is no question in that the site plan shows a better
plan for cars and the pumps but he continues to have significant concerns about the
egress and ingress.
Peter Kappertz explained that 95% of the trips would be traffic that is already on Highway
214.
Commissioner Lima pointed out that persons at Bi-Mart, Shop-N-Cart, Sears and Coastal
Farms will see a gas station there and their first inclination will not be for them to go back
to the highway, enter the station and get out again, but to come in from the south side and
create a bottle neck there.
Peter Kappertz reported that the intent is for the cars to leave the highway, go through their
site and go through the Bi-Mart easement to the existing 3-way driveway on the highway.
The exiting right turn lane to the highway was primarily illustrated for Oil Can Henry's cars
so that they can maintain their existing traffic flow. He added that they are trying to
discourage gasoline customers from going through the Oil Can Henry's site.

Planning Commission Meeting - July 8, 1999 Page 2 of 8

Commissioner Lima stated that the good intentions may not prove to be what the applicant
is trying to accomplish i.e. right turn only sign at McDonalds. He stated that he has seen
even trucks getting in from the left in the area by the freeway. Commissioner Lima
continued to express his concerns and stated that the site may not be the best for the
community.
Peter Kappertz responded that they are not expecting to have a significant impact on the
number of cars on the road but they are increasing the trips on and off of the road. He
added that they can only go so far as to controlling peoples behavior. Mr. Kappertz
remarked that ODOT is in support of the new driveway configuration because it provides
better control of the right in right out access than the existing configuration.
Bob Stein interjected to they would be willing to put up proper signage to reassure the
Commission and their customers that they can in fact get the proper flow. He added that
they will self-enforce what they have to.
Commissioner Lima expressed his concerns with this project creating a bottleneck in the
future.
Commissioner Will asked what the connection is between Vision Oil and Stein Oil?
Peter Kappertz replied that Vision Oil is the property owner and Stein Oil is the property
purchaser.
Commissioner Will also inquired if they have worked out everything with ODOT?
Peter Kappertz reported that they have gone through the complete ODOT process other
than the City representative signing off.
Commissioner Will stated he did not have page 2 of the application and inquired if there
is anything else on this page?
Peter Kappertz explained that page 2 are normal conditions requiring about 20 standard
items that ODOT uses to govern work in the right-of-way.
Commissioner Will questioned what the peak hours will be?
Peter Kappertz clarified that peak hours are during the morning commute to work and the
afternoon commute home with a small peak at the mid-day hour.
Commissioner Will asked where they will receive the fuel from and what is the normal size
of the truck that off loads?
Peter Kappertz answered he believed it comes from a terminal in Portland. The normal
truck size is 10,500.
Chairperson Young referred to page 1 of the easement agreement and inquired whether
a fuel truck is not considered as heavy hauling?
Planning Commission Meeting - July 8, 1999 Page 3 of 8
8])
Bob Stein remarked that it will be empty when it goes out.
Chairperson Young asked if the entrance coming by the underground tanks is also the
entrance into Oil Can Henry's?
Peter Kappertz replied affirmatively. He explained that they will have shared access
easements north and south along the property line.
Chairperson Young commented that this is a much better design than originally presented.
However, he shares Commissioner Lima's concerns regarding the amount of traffic exiting
out through the Bi-mart parking lot.
Peter Kappertz reported that Bi-Mart has 3 access points, two on Highway 214 and one
to a side street that goes to 99.
Commissioner Bandelow expressed her concerns regarding the lining up of the driveway
into the Shafts - Safeway complex across the street.
Peter Kappertz replied that this is proper traffic planning.
Commissioner Lonergan inquired whether a truck and trailer will be able to go directly in
the site without having to swoop over to the second lane of Highway 2147
Peter Kappertz responded yes and pointed out that the driveway has been widened and
the radius of their curb changed.

Discussion
Chairperson Young closed the public hearing.
Commissioner Lima stated that his concerns continue to be what he had previously
expressed and remarked that he is not in favor of having this type of business in this
location.
Vice Chairperson Cox understands Commissioner Lima's and Bandelow's concerns but
he does not believe that the project will generate any new traffic along the road. He favors
the project.
Commissioner Will also favors the project and stated that the reduction of one fueling
island made the most difference to him.
Commissioner Loneraan commented that a well run station certainly can generate trips but
he also thinks that you can control your flow of traffic through there. He stated that the
Planning Commission Meeting - July 8, 1999 Page 4 of 8
8D
project meets all of Staff's condition of approval and therefore he is in favor of it.
Commissioner Bandelow remarked that although she has some reservations concerning
the traffic, she is in favor of the project.
Chairperson Young added to state that he is looking at a much improved plan, reputable
business person and it is an allowed use and therefore feels in favor of the project.
Vice Chairperson Cox moved to agree with Staff's prior approval of the plan as modified
and subject to the conditions that were already imposed by Staff. Commissioner Will
seconded the motion. Motion carried with Commissioner Lima voting No.
FINAL ORDER
A._,. Site Plan Review 99-11, Variance 99-04, 1175 E. Lincoln Street, Four Square
Church
Vice Chairperson Cox stated he would abstain from voting because he was not present for
this meeting.
Chairperson Young reviewed the final order and stated all the Commissioner's concerns
were addressed. He referred to the Police Department memorandum, item 5 of the
recommendations and stated that he thought that disabled parking is required.
Staff responded that it is required and it has been identified on site already.
Chairperson Young also referred to Attachment F item 3 of the site plan review and
inquired whether the minimum 16 foot wide utility easement to be conveyed to the City is
part of the existing sidewalk area?
Staff replied yes.
Commissioner Will moved to accept Site Plan Review 99-11 and Variance 99-04 and be
signed by the Chairperson. Commissioner Lima seconded the motion, which unanimously
carried.
B._~. Annexation 98-04, Zone Map Amendment 98-05, Minor Partition 98-04, 1055 Mt.
Hood Avenue, John Hibbard, Franklin & Emily Doss
Vice Chairperson Cox stated he would again abstain from voting because he was not
present for this meeting.
Commissioner Will moved to approve Annexation 98-04, Zone Map Amendment 98-05
and Minor Partition 98-04 and have the Chairperson sign it. Commissioner Lima seconded
the motion. Motion carried.
DISCUSSION ITEMS
A.~. Site Plan Review 99-15, Property Line Adjustment 99-01, 798 Wilson St.,
Oregon Rehabilitation Housing Association
Staff explained that this is a single family residential home and it really does not require
Planning Commission Meeting - July 8, 1999 Page 5 of 8
for it to come for review but he wanted to make the Commission aware that this is a facility
that will be used as a group care home. He further added that HUD makes allowance and
overrides all local jurisdictions in regards to zoning in these cases. It is a permitted outright
use.
Commissioner Will moved to accept Site Plan Review 99-15, Property Line Adjustment
99-01 administrative approval by the Planning Director. Vice Chairperson Cox seconded
the motion, which carried.
B_~. Woodburn High School Sinage
Commissioner Will commented he read the City Attorney's comments and stated that the
only thing they can do is to go for an amended ordinance to cover all the bases and as far
as acceptance of the Variance he added that he could not support the Variance based on
the attorney's comeback to them.
Chairperson Young remarked that it does not seem that it has left the Commission with
anything that they can really say or do about it.
Staff inquired if he raised all the questions and concerns the Commission raised?
Commissioner Will said he had.
Staff remarked that the Variance is weak because what we have is a non-conforming sign.
We do not make allowance for sinage and that is one of the faults of the sign ordinance.
Vice Chairperson Cox inquired whether we prohibit signs or we just do not address them
at all?
Staff replied that it is true that we don't address them. Staff read the ordinance.
Chairperson Young clarified that the Commission agrees that this will be a great
opportunity for the school and their concerns are for outside of this use.
Commissioner Will asked how could we work it so that we can allow a sign there but not
somewhere else in town where we did not want it to begin'with?
Staff stated he does not believe that we could deny a sign that meets the square footage
and does not exceed the sign heights.
Vice Chairperson Cox commented he felt this should not be handled as a Variance but
assuming that it is, we should grant it. If nothing else, it gives us the opportunity to impose
some conditions.
Vice Chairperson Cox moved to approve the Variance with the conditions recommended
by Staff including the one about removing the old one and locating the current one.
Commissioner Lima seconded the motion. Motion carried with Commissioner Will voting
No.

Planning Commission Meeting - July 8, 1999 Page 6 of 8
Commissioner Lonergan inquired if one of the conditions was to establish a 3 minute time
frame for the message.
Commissioner Will asked if the point regarding advertising was covered?
Staff stated that the School District indicated they are willing to just stay with community
messages.
Vice Chairperson Cox moved to amend the previous approval by adding the 3 minute
intervals condition. Commissioner Bandelow seconded the motion, which unanimously
carried.
C._~. Amendments to the letter to City Council regarding Commission's Concerns
about Portable Toilets
Commissioner Bandelow requested some reference be made in the letter regarding the
addition of a concession stand with no washroom facilities and establish a time table.
Vice Chairperson Cox commented that it is not clear to him in the letter that the
Commission hopes that the Council will take action on the portable toilet issue in addition
to the wash rooms.
Staff will mail a draft letter to the Commission for their comments.
D.~. KWBY Radio Request to House Station at the New Napa Store
Staff explained that the request involves placing satellite dishes on site.
Commissioners took a 10 minute break to review the information regarding KVVYB Radio
request.
Staff requested the Commission's guidance in how to proceed with this issue.
Vice Chairperson Cox thought that this project falls under the definition of what is
considered site review and therefore, should be handled with a regular site review
application.
Commissioner Will concurred with Vice Chairperson Cox.
It was the Commission's consensus that this project be handled as a regular site plan
review application.
REPORTS
A_~. Building Activity for the Month of June 1999

and morals subject to the convenience and welfare of the City and of the area, as stated
in Chapter 6 of the Woodburn Zoning Ordinance, Section 6.040.
Staff replied that as far as the ordinance itself this is correct but as far as the toilet issue
it is pretty much a County issue.
Vice Chairperson Cox mentioned that there has been no work done on Hazelnut Street.
He further stated that there is a written guarantee by Tukwila Partners states that the fancy
brick work would be maintained by them.
Staff will follow up on this issue.
Commissioner Bandelow requested information from the Woodburn School District
regarding the cost of the sign. She would like to weigh this with the cost of rest rooms.

Summer Water Use Information for the Public
July 21, 1999
The City of Woodburn has an adequate supply of water to supply the needs of its
residents. In the summer, when water use is at its highest, the city suggests that
residents make some adjustments to how they use water for outside uses such as
watering of yards and gardens. Water use during the hottest part of the summer is
often three to four times the quantity used during the winter.
Occasionally, although it hasn't happened yet this year, in the summer in the
afternoon and evening between 4:00 pm and 10:00 pm city water use will exceed
the amount that the wells can produce and the water tank is drawn down to make
up the difference. Staff recommends that residents restrict their outside water use,
particularly for lawn watering, during this time period. This will help insure that there
is an adequate supply for' residents use and also reserve capability to meet fire
protection demands if they are needed.
Lawn watering during the cool parts of the day, generally before 10:00 am, is best
since it reduces the amount of water that evaporates and reduces the potential for
disease. A good way to see if the lawn needs watering is to step on the grass. If the
grass is stepped on and it springs back it does not need water. If it stays flat it is
time to water. When watering do it long enough for the moisture to soak down to
the roots where it will do the most good. A good guide is to water long enough to
fill up an empty tuna fish can with water. Also position sprinklers so water lands on
the lawn or garden and not on paved areas.
Other hints to reduce outside water consumption include sweeping your driveway and
sidewalks instead of hosing them off with water. Do not run the hose while washing
the car. Also check for leaks that may be present in the sprinkling system or other
outside water devices.
By reducing outside water use during the hottest part of the day from 4:00 pm to
10:00 pm Woodburn residents can insure that there is an adequate supply of water
for use by residents and sufficient reserve capacity to meet potential fire protection
needs. Once again there is no shortage of water for domestic use.

Status of Goose Creek Pipe Installation Project
Recently the city has received bids for installation of storm drain pipe to eliminate the
existing ditch that is a safety hazard for children. This ditch, known as Goose Creek, is
located between Henry's Farm Subdivision and Lincoln Elementary School on Boones Ferry
Road. Although many issues have been resolved, the contract award recommendation is not
being forwarded to the city council at this time because we have not received a permit from
the Corps of Engineers as yet.
The cost sharing formula for installation of pipe was approved by the city council last fall.
The Division of State Lands has given its approval and staff has met with property owners
regarding the easement and a deposit to cover their share of the cost. Staff has provided an
easement document to each affected property owner and will work with property owners to
resolve the issues of concern to them. However, without a permit from the Corps of
Engineers the project cannot proceed.
I want to make the City Council aware that the application for permit was made on March 4,
1999. I have proposed different mitigation options to the corps for their decision. It appears
the corps representative wants the city to keep a smaller size ditch (two to three feet deep)
between the pipes in back of the subdivision lots. I have advised the corps that the
maintenance of such a ditch behind individual lots will be difficult and does not eliminate the
hazard to the city's satisfaction.
Staff plans to continue discussions with the representatives of the Corps of Engineers until
we arrive at a satisfactory decision. However, council needs to be aware of the problem and
the reason staff has not presented the contract award at this time.

RE: Lot 29, Henry's Farm Subdivision, 1288 Mayanna Drive.
Dear Property Owner:
This is a follow up letter/meeting in regard to the proposed drainage improvements along the
south portion of the above referenced property.
The city has been requested by some of the adjacent home owners, homebuilders and the
Woodburn School District to develop a cooperative pipe installation project and eliminate the
existing open ditch for safety reasons. The City Council did approve the above request and
construction plans for the pipe installation have been developed.
Originally the city proposed that the property owners be responsible for the cost of materials for
the improvements, which was estimated at $5000.00 per lot. The city has since reduced this
amount to a fixed cost of $3,430.00 per lot, which is slightly less than 40% of the estimated
construction cost. The School District has provided the necessary easement to the city and the
school board has approved the cost share distribution, in the fixed amount of $36,000.00.
The city council approved the cost share of $ 3,430 per lot for the properties located north of the
ditch and $36,000 for the school district property. The cost to the city is expected to be more than
$50,000. It should be noted the property owners cost share has been fixed and the city cost is
variable. If the final project cost is more then the project estimates, it will be absorbed by the city.
In order to accomplish this project, a following things need to happen
Proper easements need to be conveyed to the city by all affected properties. A permanent
easement of 20 feet in width. At locations where no permanent structure has been
constructed a temporary construction easement of 15 feet in width is being requested on
the affected lots adjacent to the drainage way within the Henry's Farm Subdivision.
( Note: The School District has already provided the necessary easements to the city.)
8G
All affected property owners in Henry's Farm Subdivision need to deposit the fixed
amount of $3,430 for the affected lots adjacent to the drainage way, or make agreement
with the city for a payment plan. This deposit will be placed in a city recorder trust
account to fund the improvement.
A regulatory permit from the Division of State Lands and the Army Corps of Engineers
will need to be obtained prior to start of construction within the drainage way. The city
has applied for this permit on March 4,1999.
On March 30, the Division of State Lands responded by letter, indicating that no state
permit would be required from them to construct the proposed culvert and fill as we
proposed.
On May 14, the Corps of Engineers responded by letter explaining they had some
concerns on the project and a permit would be required. So far staffhas not been able to
receive approval fi.om the corp of engineers for the pipe installation.
Enclosed is the permanent easement which describes the southerly 20 feet of your lot. If no
permanent structure exists, a temporary easement which describes an additional 15 feet in width
north of the permanent easement is also included. I have included a map showing both the
permanent and temporary easements. We would request that you sign the attached easement and
return it to us as soon as possible. The document must be notarized, We have a notary on staff at
city hall that can provide this service to you.
As mentioned above, the project has been bid and a contract could be awarded to the apparent
low bidder to complete project without delay. However, without the Army Corps permit it
appears the project may need to be delayed. The construction in the wet winter months is not
practical for this project. Your signed easement and deposit of $3430.00 in a city recorders trust
account will facilitate decision for faster action if Corp. of Engineers permit is received.
If you have any questions or I can be of any further assistance please don't hesitate to contact me
at 503.982.5247

Ecologist/Senior Project Manager

PO Box 2946
Podland, OR 97208-2946
Ref: Corps Number 99-317
Dear Mr. Gebhart:
Thank you for your field visit on June 15 and for your recent letter of July 2, 1999 that addresses
some of your concerns regarding the storm drain pipe installation project in VVoodburn.
I will try to respond to two of your major concerns, namely, pipe capacity and mitigation need.
A
Pipe Capacity Issue
Please note that the two pipes proposed to convey the storm water have enough capacity
to carry a 50-year storm run off. The run off amount was calculated by Crane and Merseth
Engineers utilizing computer modeling and the pipe sizing was done utilizing Manning's
Equation. This letter should be considered as a certification from me, the City Engineer,
that the pipe has been properly sized to carry storm water for a 50-year storm event. You
should also note that the city has created an additional safety feature that allows water to
back into school fields if a pipe blockage occurs during flooding.
Mitigation Issue ~
Please be aware that the City of Woodburn is an environmentally responsible public agency
that is trying to accomplish a piping project to remove hazardous conditions in the vicinity
of an elementary school. The project is supported by the adjoining property owners and by
the school district. I have previously indicated that the city will be willing to take appropriate
mitigation action that is useful and practical. However, it is not practical to maintain a ditch
above the proposed storm drain pipes in the backyard of properties on the west side of
Boones Ferry Road.
Mr. Richard Gebhart
July 14, 199
Page 2
8G
I am proposing that you choose any one of the following as the mitigation action to be taken by
the city:
Option 1. City pay an appropriate amount determined by the Corp of Engineers instead of
any mitigation action.
Option 2. Woodburn Public Works provide native vegetation and shrubbery at no cost to the
property owners for its planting along Goose Creek on the east side of Boones
Ferry Road.
Option 3. City plant approximately 200 saplings of native trees along Goose Creek east of
Boones Ferry and or Mill Creek with property owners' approval. These sapplings
will be planted in a distance of 400 yards as proposed by you.
Option 4: Any modified combination of the above four options that allows the construction to
proceed immediately.
Urgent action on Woodburn's permit and its approval with a selected option, as outlined above,
is requested so that this safety project can proceed without delay.

sanitary sewer and storm drainage capacity to serve the Phase I retail development.
II. PROCEDURAL HISTORY.
The Applicant submitted this application on September 18, 1998. After timely notice
of a public hearing as required by the Woodburn Zoning Ordinance, the Woodburn Planning
Commission heard the application at a public hearing on February 11, 1999. No party
requested that the hearing be continued or that the record remain open. The Planning
Page 2 - Findings and Conclusions
ATTACHMENT- ~ -- lO,/~
Page ~ of ~
Commission tentatively approved the application at the conclusion of the public hearing. The
Planning Commission adopted a final order recommending that the Woodburn City Council
approve the application on February 25, 1999.
The City of Woodburn provided timely notice of the City Council's hearing on
May 10, 1999. The City had previously provided the required 45-day written notice to the
Oregon Department of Land Conservation and Development for this post-acknowledgment
amendment.
The Mayor opened the public hearing and read the announcements required by
ORS 197.763(5). No party objected to the City Council's jurisdiction.
The City Council heard testimony from the applicant and the Oregon Department of
Transportation. ODOT requested that the record remain open. However, the City Council
chose not to keep the record open pursuant to ORS 197.763(4)(b). This section provides "if
additional documents or evidence are provided by any party, the local government may allow a
continuance or leave the record open to allow the parties a reasonable opportunity to respond."
The City Council finds that this statute provides it with the discretion as to whether to
keep the record open. In this case, the application has not changed since the Febr~_~ary 11,
1999 Planning Commission hearing and ODOT had the opportunity to place a letter into the
record concerning the application. Moreover, ODOT did not object to the City Council's
denial of its request that the record remain open. The City Council also notes that ODOT did
not request an opportunity to rebut any additional evidence presented at the hearing but had a
full and fair opportunity to make its case during its testimony. The City Council placed no
time limits on ODOT's testimony.
The Mayor closed the public heating. The City Council tentatively approved the
application with a motion by Councilor Figley seconded by Councilor Pugh on a vote of 5-1
(Councilor Bjelland opposed). The City Council directed the applicant's attorney to prepare
findings for review by city staff and adoption by the City Council at its meeting on June 14,
1999. The City Council decided not to impose a condition, which was recommended by the
Planning Commission, that traffic impact be determined based upon an additional Traffic
Impact Study (TIS) to be paid for and obtained by the applicant. However, the City Council
added a condition that the City address the issue of required traffic impact mitigation at the
time of site plan review.
The applicant's attorney proposed findings and submitted them to the City Attorney.
After the findings were reviewed by city staff, certain revisions were made and condition IV-6
was added, as follows: "That any additional traffic impact mitigation would be required at the
site plan stage, if necessary."
Page 3 - Findings and Conclusions
ATTACHMENT~
Page~of ~q' --
A disagreement arose between city staff and the applicant's attorney as to whether the
City Council intended to include condition IV-6 as part of the findings.
At its meeting on July 12, 1999, the City Council was presented Se proposed findings
and discussed the inclusion of Condition IV-6. The City Council then clarified its intent
through a motion by Councilor Figley. Councilor Figley's motion, seconded by Councilor
Pugh, was a follows:
I would move that item IV, sub 6 be amended to say that no additional traffic
impact study be required of applicant; that the issue of traffic impact mitigation be
required at the site plan stage, and no "if necessary." ...I made that
motion...someone would second it so we could discuss .....
10A
The motion passed 5-0.
A second motion was then made at the July 12, 1999 meetly, g to direct city staff to
revise thc Findings and Conclusions to bc consistent with the inclusion of Condition IV-6, as
amended, and to present thc revised Council Bill for approval at the fo]lowing City Council
meeting. This motion passed 5-0.
IH, APPLICABLE APPROVAL CRITERIA.
The City Council herein adopts these findings approving this aPPlication. The City
Council expressly incorporates by reference the findings as to the applicable approval criteria
contained in the applicant's submittal dated September 18, 1998. Where there is a conffict
between these findings and that submittal, these findings shall control.
A. Annexation.
(1) Relevant Approval Criteria.
a. Statewide Plannim~ Goals ("Goals"}.
(i) Goal 1. "Citizen Involvement."
"To develop a citizen involvement program and
insures the opportunity for citizens to be involved
in all phases of the planning process."
The City of Woodburn has established a land use notification and heatings procedures
to assure citizen involvement.
Page 4 - Findings and Conclusions
ATTACHMENT
Page ~5--' of
(ii) GO~ 2, "Land Use Planning."
"To establish a land use planning process and
policy framework as a basis for all decisions and
actions related to the use of land and to assure an
adequate factual base for such decisions and
actions."
10A
This Goal requires that the City coordinate Plan amendments, including annexations,
with affected governmental units. The City has coordinated this application with Marion
County, the Oregon Department of Transportation CODOT"), and the Department Land
Conservation and Development ("DLCD").
(iii) Ooal 5. "Natural Resources. Scenic and Historic Areas.
0.nd _Open Spaces."
"To protect natural resources and conserve scenic
and historic areas and open spaces."
FINDING:
No Goal 5 resource exists on Tax Lot 101.
(iv) Goal 6. "Air. Water and Land Resources Ouality."
"To maintain and improve the quality of the air,
water and land resources of the state."
State agencies play a key role in achieving this goal. At the time of development, the
Department of Environmental Quality ("DEQ") is responsible for administering permits for
drainage and for air Quality ("DEQ") with respect to large parking facilities. The Division of
State Lands ("DSL") is responsible for administering wetlands.
(v)
Goal 7. "Areas Subiect to Natural Disasters and
Hazards."
"To protect life and property from natural
disasters."
Page 5 - Findings and Conclusions
ATTACHMENT
Page {r~ of
There are no hazards associated with the subject property.
(vi) Goal 8. "Recreational Needs."
"To satisfy the recreational needs of the citizens of
the state and visitors, where appropriate, to
provide for the siting of necessary recreational
facilities including destination resorts."
The Subject property has not been identified by the City as a potential park site for any
type of recreational facility.
(vii) Goal 9, "Economic Development."
"To provide adequate opportunities throughout the
state for a variety of economic activities vital to
the health, welfare, and prosperity of Oregon's
citizens."
The subject property provides the opportunity to reinforce the activity of the existing
factory outlet center. There is no other site in the Urban Growth Area with the same
locational characteristics. The opportunity for expansion of the factory outlet center to an
abutting parcel will better serve the existing market area and expand the market area, thereby
creating more jobs and local payrolls.
(viii) Ooal 10. "Housing."
"To provide for the housing needs of citizens of
the state."
The City of Woodbum has provided for a variety of housing types and densities in its
Plan and implementing ordinances, consistent with the Guidelines for implementing Goal 9.
The available inventory of residential land within the UGB exceeds the amount needed to serve
future population needs.
IOA
Page 6 - Findings and Conclusions
ATTACHMENT
Page ~ o~ -~
As documented on page 39 of the Plan, there is sufficient land designated for
residential use in the Plan to accommodate a population of 28,000, plus a surplus that includes
approximately 100 acres of both the Low Density and High Density Plan designations. This
analysis is based on the carrying capacity of the two (2) residential categories in the plan in
relation to the densities permitted in the underlying zoning. The capacity of the Low Density
Residential designation is six (6) dwelling units per gross acre. The capacity of the High
Density designation is conservatively indexed at a density of twelve (12) dwelling units per
gross acre, where the corresponding zoning allows densities ranging up to twenty-five
(25) dwelling units per gross acre.
(ix) 00al 11, "Public Facilities and Services."
"To plan and develop a timely, orderly and
efficient arrangement of public facilities and
services to serve as a framework for urban and
rural development."
The subject property is well positioned for the further extension of public facilities
constructed to serve Phase I development of the factory outlet center.
(x) Goal 12, "Transportation."
"To provide and encourage a safe, convenient and
economic transportation system."
This Goal is implemented by the Transportation Planning Rule ("TPR"). The City of
Woodburn has implemented the Goal 12 and the TPR through the adoption of an
acknowledged Transportation System Plan CTSP") in 1996, Ordinance 2170. The TSP
accounts for the development of all the land within the Urban Growth Boundary as provided
for the Woodburn Comprehensive Plan.
The TSP fulfills the Goal 12 through facility plans for streets, bicycles, pedestrians,
and transit; implementation priorities and a financing program. The City has established a
TSP that reflects the annexation and urbanization of the subject property. Additional findings
demonstrating compliance with the TPR are found below.
(xi) Goal 13. "Energy Conservation."
"To conserve energy."
Page 7 - Findings and Conclusions
10A
ATI'ACHMENT--
page ..~L.~
The development of the subject property will assist in conserving the energy used for
shopping by encouraging one stop shopping due to the aggregation of a wide range of goods at
a single location. The buildings in the center will all conform with required energy
conservation codes.
(xii) Goal 14. "Urbanization,"
"To provide for an orderly and efficient transition
from rural to urban land use."
10A
Goal 14 provides for an orderly and efficient transition from rural to urban land use.
Tax Lot 101 is "urbanizable" and not "rural" since it is within the Urban Growth Boundary.
Urbanizable lands are defined as lands with the UGB which are determined to be necessary and
suitable for future urban uses, can be served by urban services and facilities and are needed for
the expansion of an urban area.
The 8.0 acre annexation is an appropriate parcel to be included within the City. Since
the property abuts the existing factory outlet center, it is a logical location for expansion of the
center. The public need for this particular land use at this particular location was documented
in the City's 1992 and 1998 annexation land use approvals of the factory outlet center. As a
facility with a regional market area, the annexation provides the opportunity for the factory
outlet center to increase its market penetration by expanding in a location that has previously
been selected and improved for the purpose. The annexation fulfills the City's need to grow
incrementally and to provide for mutually supporting uses.
(xiii) Goals 3.4.15 and 16 through 19.
The following goals are inapplicable to this proposal: Goal 3, Agricultural Lands;
Goal 4, Forest Lands; Goal 15, Willamette River Greenway; and Goals 16 through 19, the
Coastal Goals.
b. Woodburn Comprehensive Plan.
(i) Commercial Development Policies
· Plan Policy B-1. The citY should at all times have sufficient land to
accommodate the retail needs of the City and the surrounding market area. The
Page 8 - Findings and Conclusions
ATTACHMENT t~
Page o/ of ~. s/-
City presently has four major commercial areas: 99E, 1-5 Interchange, the
downtown area and the 214/219/99E four comers intersection area. No new
areas should be established.
IOA
Plan page 14 identifies the special market area considerations for commercial uses at
this location:
"This area serves as an interstate service center. It is a freeway
oriented service center. This area also has a more regional retail
orientation than the rest of Woodburn."
Consequently, the need for commercial land in this area is independent of other commercial
sites in the City. There are no comparable sites in the area available for commercial use. The
proposed (a factory outlet center) use can only be served at the proposed location. A factory
outlet center is appropriately located at this location because of its location relative to
transportation facilities
P,.I,III2.OliC. Y_~. Lands for high traffic generating uses (shopping centers,
malls, restaurants, etc) should be located on well improved arterials. Thc use
should provide the necessary traffic control devices needed to ameliorate their
impact on the arterial streets.
The subject property is located on Arney Road, which is classified as a "Service
Collector." Arney Road has been improved to essentially the same standards as a "Minor
Arterial," except that the turn refuge lane is two (2) feet narrower. Arney Road has direct
access to Highway 214, which is classified as a "Major Arterial." The appropriate traffic
control requirements along Arney Road have been identified as part of the traffic impact
analysis.
(ii) Annexation Policies
Plan Policy D-1. While it is important that enough land is available for the
necessary development anticipated in the City of Wbodburn, it is also essential
to prevent too much land from being included in the city limits as this leads to
inefficient, sprawling development. The City should ensure that there is a five
(5) year supply of vacant land within the City. Services should be provided to
the land during the five (5) year period.
Page 9 - Findings and Conclusions
ATTACHMENT /~'~
Page
As found in Commercial Development Policy (V.D. 1 .a. above), the I-5 Interchange
location of the subject property has special, regional market characteristics and therefore is not
directly competitive with other commercial sites within Woodburn. In addition there is
virtually no other vacant commercial land available at the interchange at present. Therefore
the subject property satisfies this policy.
Plan Policy D-2. Prior to the approval of Site Plan, Subdivision or Planned
Unit Developments for land annexed to the city west of Interstate 5, a detailed
Transportation Impact Study with the Department of Transportation involvement
will be required.
This process allows the City to condition development with transportation improvement
requirements that are "roughly proportional" to the traffic impacts that are generated by the
development.
A Traffic Impact (TIS) Study was completed by the applicant and is contained in the
record. The City finds that this policy is satisfied for the purposes of this application and will
not require the applicant to prepare an additional traffic impact study for Woodburn Company
Stores, Phases II and III. However, the City reserves its right to address any future traffic
mitigation issues when a Site Plan review application is submitted on the subject property.
P10n Policy M-4. The County shall retain responsibility for regulating land use
on lands within the urban growth area until such lands are annexed by the City.
The urban growth area has been identified by the City as urbanizable and is
considered to be available, over time, for urban development.
10A
Based on the on-going needs of the community to accommodate growth and the specific
commitment to construct Phase I of the factory outlet center, it is timely to allow urbanization
of the subject property.
Plan Policy M-6. Upon receipt of an annexation request or the initiation of
annexation proceedings by the City, the City shall forward information
regarding the request (including any proposed zone change) to the County for
comments and recommendations. The County shall have twenty days to
respond unless they request and the City allows additional time to submit
comments before the City makes a decision on the annexation proposal.
Page 10 - Findings and Conclusions
ATTACHMENT,
Page I/ _of,,
The City notified Marion County of the proposed annexation by letter in November
1998. The County Public Works Department responded December 13, 1998 for the Land Use
and Transportation Divisions. The comments indicated the need for a copy of the
Transportation Impact Analysis for Woodbum Company Stores Phases II & III, dated
December 1998 which was subsequently provided. In addition the County requested a site
plan addressing access, including the abutting property to the west of the subject property.
Plan Policy M-7. All land use actions within the urban growth boundary and
outside the city limits shall be consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan
and County's land use regulations.
The pwposed annexation is consistent with the Plan because it is a proposal to permit
the urbanization of the subject property, subject to a concurrent Plan map amendment. There
are no County regulations that preclude the proposed annexation.
Plan Policy M-11. Conversion of land within the boundary to urban uses be
based on consideration of [the following five (5) factors]:
Orderly, economic provision of public facilities and
services;
All the public facilities necessary to develop the abutting property for the same use
have been provided. Access to these public facilities therefore only requires minor extensions.
Availability of sufficient land for the various uses to
ensure choices in the marketplace;
The proposed annexation is required to provide the opportunity for future expansion of
a specific regional commercial use in the only site within the City that is appropriate.

· Compliance with Statewide Planning Goals.
The findings regarding compliance with applicable statewide planning goals are found

· Compliance with Woodburn Comorehensive Plan Goals and Policies.
The findings regarding compliance with applicable Woodburn Comprehensive Plan
Goals and Policies are found above and are expressly incorporated herein by reference.
· Dem0n~rated Public Need for the Plan Map Amendment.
The proposed change in the Plan map from "High Density Residential" fulfills a
demonstrated public need. It represents a change from the way the Plan was originally
mapped but was accounted for in the goals and policies of Plan. Consistency with the intent of
the Plan demonstrates that the public need is served by the change. As time passes, there is a
public need to weigh issues and opportunities and recognize that incremental changes to the
Plan map benefit the community.
In this instance, there is demonstrated public need to accommodate an opportunity to
Page 13 -Findings and Conclusions
IOA
ATTACHMENT
Page i? of
strengthen the economy, consistent with Goal 9. Goal 9 states that the Plan shall provide for
at least an adequate supply of sites of suitable sizes, types, location and service levels for a
variety of commercial uses consistent with plan policies. Currently the Plan is lacking a
adequate supply of suitably located property that can be used to bolster the regional shopping
function at the Woodburn Interchange. The subject change is needed to achieve the full
potential of the interchange, particularly the existing factory outlet center. The public need is
served by expanded employment opportunities and desirable mix of land uses for a
freestanding community.
The Statewide Guidelines for Economic Development address the public's need to
accommodate expansion of commercial use. The Statewide Guidelines state that:
"Plans should strongly emphasize the expansion of and
increased productivity from existing firms as a means to
strengthen local and regional economic development",
The subject change in the Plan designation is needed to be consistent with this guideline. The
Plan change augments the supply of suitable sites. The proposal is the only available site that
not only accounts for market forces, market location, and key public facilities, but that is
readily adaptable to expansion of the existing mall layout. The, proposal maximizes the use of
the existing facilities and the location advantages provided by freeway visibility and acce. ss and
complementary commercial uses.
The proposal is consistent with the w°°dburn commercial land use policies. Part of
the public need is to exercise the Plan in away that recognizes change and positive growth
opportunities that build a strong, liveable community. The proposal is consistent with the
Plan. This consistency is demonstrated in section V.D. above.
Key considerations in reviewing the need for the change include the fact that it
concentrates commercial activity in a priority commercial area. Concentrating commercial
provides the benefit of cumulative attraction which in turn enhances market share and reduces
overall shopping trips. And significantly, the map change takes advantage of existing public
and private investment.
· Proposal Best Satisfies the Need.
The need for additional commercial land to support the expansion of the existing
factory outlet center is best served by this property. This reinforces the policy of
concentrating commercial development. It strengthens the shopping pattern for existing
commercial uses and avoids the proliferation of commercial uses in a dispersed pattern that
lacks the mutual support of like uses.
In this specific instance a commitment has already been made in this location to
10A
Page 14 - Findings and Conclusions
ATTACI-JMENT ~
Page l~_ of '~?'
establish a special shopping area that serves a regional market area. This is the only location
in Woodburn that has the visibility, the access and an existing commercial use of this type.
The subject property is the only site within the community that can accommodate the
expansion of the existing factory outlet center.
The previous actions by the City in 1992 and 1998 clearly have set the stage that there
is a community need for this type of commercial use. Based on the public and private
commitments and investments, the location characteristics and the conformance with
commercial land use policy the subject property best satisfies the need for the expansion of the
factory outlet center.
· Burden of Proof.
(I) tn'st criterion is to prove that the original Plan was in error.
Conditions have changed since the Comprehensive Plan was originally drafted and first
adopted in 1978. In that context there are errors in the forecasts as well as the assumptions
about the composition of uses in land use categories. Such errors reflect changes in
circumstance that warrant amending the Plan map.
The second criterion requires showing how the community has changed
since the original Plan was adopted
The 1992 and 1998 decisions to approve the site for the retail center found that the
actual population growth in Woodburn substantially exceeded the population forecast used to
formulate the original Plan. This increased rate of population is found to demonstrate a
change for the predicted patterns of growth since those apparent when the Plan was adopted.
The findings of the previous decision also describe how multi-family land needs were
over estimated in the original plan and that the interchange location is a less than optimum
location for a large concentration of multi-family residential use. Present circumstances
confirm that finding.
In addition, the exposure and access provided by the interchange location has resulted
in the development of the factory outlet retail center, a use which has a regional market.
Commercial development with a regional market was not anticipated or accounted for in the
original plan. The commercial activity with this broad market does not supplant local
commercial uses but rather adds to the commercial land needs of the City.

D. llesuonse to I~ue~ ]~ni~d by the Oregon Deoartment of Transportation.
The Oregon Department of Translxmation ("ODOT") submitted two lettem into the
record dated February 4, 1999 and May 5, 1999. The May 5, 1999 letter states that it is
intended to update comments contained in the February 4, 1999 letter. This portion of the
decision responds to issues raised by ODOT.
As noted with respect to Goal 2, the City is required to give notice of this application
to ODOT, to allow ODOT an opportunity to comment on the application and to consider the
comments as much as possible. The City is not required, however, to agree with all of
ODOT's comments or to adopt them.
(1) The City Council finds that the I-5/Highway 214/219 Interchange will be
improved with sufficient capacity consistent with the adopted City-of Woodburn Transportation
System Plan ("TSP").
ODOT argues that the applicant's transportation impact study ("TIS") is flawed because
it is: "Based on the assumption that a major improvement to the I-5 Interchange will be
completed. Such an improvement is not, however, included in the City's TSP or the
Woodburn Comprehensive Plan. In fact, the TSP contains Goal 2, Policy 2, which states:
"Develop a strategy for providing improved access to I-5
Page 16 - Findings and Conclusions
ATTACHMENT r~
Page I-'7 ,, of ~,4
IOA
from the Woodburn area, through either improvements of the
existing Highway 214 Interchange and/or a new interchange in
the Woodburn vicinity (with supporting local roadway
improvements). This strategy will be developed following a
refinement study as outlined in the Transportation Planning
Rule."
The City Council finds that the applicant has satisfied OAR 660-12-060(1) because
the application has no present "significant affect" on a transportation facility. Further, the
administrative rule provides that the City may approve the application subject to conditions of
approval which mitigate a significant affect. The City Council finds that Condition 1V-6,
requiring that the traffic mitigation issues by addressed by the City at the time of site plan
review, serves to mitigate any potential significant affect.
The City Council finds that the applicant's TIS demonstrates that the application will
not have a significant affect on the transportation facility identified as the I-
5/Highway 214/219 Interchange. Table 4 of the TIS prepared by Kittelson & Associates, Inc.
("KAl") shows that in the year 2001, 1-5 will operate during a Friday p.m. peak hour at level
of service ("LOS") "C" or better, with minor improvements. TIS at pages 24-25. TIS
Table 5 shows that in the year 2003, the in~rchange will operate at LOS "D" or better. The
City Council finds nothing in the TPR requires it to look at the year 2015. In order to
determine whether the application has a present significant affect on the application, the City
Council finds that Tables 4 and 5 demonstrate that the application will cause the interchange to
operate at acceptable LOS through at least the next four (4) years.
In the whereas clauses adopted by the City Council for the TSP, a number of findings
demonstrate that the TSP, with its required refinement study, will satisfy the capacity
requirements of the TPR at this interchange. The City Council notes that neither ODOT nor
the Oregon Department of Land Conservation and Development ("DLCD") appealed the City
Council's adoption of its TSP.
One whereas clause adopted by the City Council for the TSP found:
"The City Council finds that the transportation system plan
adopted herein complies with OAR 660-12-060(1)(b) for the
affected transportation facilities, including but not limited to the
Highway 214/I-5 Interchange/Parr Road area."
Further, incorporated in the staff report for the TSP were several findings relevant to
the TPR. The City Council adopted findings regarding OAR 660-12-025(1). This section of
the TPR provides "except as provided in Section (3) in this role, adoption of a TSP shall
constitute the land use decision regarding the need for transportation facilities, services and
Page 17 - Findings and Conclusions
ATTACHMENT
Page ~,, of
major improvements in their function, mode and general location." Section (3) of the
administrative rule provides that a local government may defer decisions regarding function,
general location and mode of a refinement plan if the necessary findings are adopted. Pursuant
to the administrative rule, the city did defer certain significant decisions. The City decided to
defer the decision regarding the mode of improvements to the existing I-5 interchange and
make this decision after completion of a refinement plan. Three options were evaluated in the
TSP but there are other potential alternatives. The information as to mode of interchange
improvement could not be arrived at because Marion County had not completed its plan and
further evaluation of the area was needed. However, the city's deferral did not invalidate any
of the TSP assumptions because the need for an interchange improvement will still be
addressed and local improvements to aid traffic flow will still be addressed. Delay of this
decision did not, and should not, preclude implementation of the remainder of the TSP and
consideration of the present application. The result of the refinement study, which will include
a detailed, technical evaluation of the three current alternatives, plus others, will be an
interchange alternative which is precisely defined.
Additionally, the City Council found that the TSP satisfied OAR 660-12-030. The City
Council found:
"The TSP identifies the City's transportation needs including
those of the transportation disadvantaged, and support of
industrial and commercial development. These needs were based
on a 20-year forecast in population and employment within the
acknowledged comprehensive plan."
Further, the City Council adopted findings regarding OAR 660-12-060(1). The City
Council found:
"That the transportation system plan adopted here complies with
OAR 660-12-060(1)(b) for the affected transportation facility,
including but not limited to the Highway 214/I-5
Interchange/Parr Road area."
The TSP adopted by the City Council adopted three (3) I-5 access alternatives (see TSP
at page 1). The TSP states: "An element of the TSP is an improvement to existing I-5/214
Interchange" and "a reconfiguration of the interchanges proposed." (TSP at page 89.)
The City Council also notes that Table 6 (TSP at page 41) shows that at least one of the
options (the two interchange options) would result in LOS "D" or better in the year 2015.
The TSP contains a section entitled "Required Street Upgrades." The portion of this
section dealing with freeways states: "In the longer-term, reconfiguration of the interchange is
proposed. A specific improvement (improve existing interchange, split diamond interchange
or second interchange at Butteville Road) will be identified through a follow-up interchange
Page 18 - Findings a, nd Conclusions
10A
ATTAC, I..I~M ENT,
Page
refinement study of the TSP." (TSP at page 89.)
The City Council finds that while it has not completed the refinement study, it is
unnecessary to do so in order for it to determine that OAR 660-12-060(1)(b) is satisfied for the
purposes of granting this application. With the TSP and required refinement study, a solution
to the long-term capacity needs of the interchange will .be provided. In fact, the TSP
transportation financing plan contains a proposed roadway system capacity improvement for
the 1-5 interchange. (See TSP at page 115; Table 17.) Thus, not only has the City Council
determined to improve the interchange, it has provided some estimated costs for the
improvement in the TSP long-term financing plan.
The City Council finds that it need not complete the refinement study prior to this
application. Because the TSP is part of the City's acknowledged plan and because the TSP
states that a solution will be identified, the TSP has determined that the interchange will be
upgraded.
The City Council finds that under Goal 2, Policy 2 of the TSP a strategy will be
developed following a refinement study as outlined in the TPR. OAR 660-12-025(3)(c) says
that deferral of a solution to a refinement plan is allowed if it does not invalidate the TSP. In
this case, the refinement plan carries out the TSP's acknowledged strategies without
invalidating them. For these reasons, the City Council finds that the lack of refinement study
is not an impediment to a conclusion that the I-5 has sufficient capacity in the short term, as
required by the TPR, and in the long term sufficient capacity will be provided through a
solution identified in a refinement study.
IOA
The City Council declined to impose a condition, which was recommended by the
Planning Commission, that traffic impact be determined based upon an additional Traffic
Impact Study (TIS) to be paid for and obtained by the applicant. Instead, The City Council
imposed a condition that the City address the issue of required traffic impact mitigation at the
time of site plan review.
(2)
The City_ Council finds that KAI's TIS correctly analyzes the level of service at
the time of this ap_olication.
ODOT argued that the TIS does not adequately analyze the plan amendment impacts.
ODOT requested that the TIS be revised to reflect a "worst case analysis," meaning an analysis
of the highest traffic generating land use permitted in the commercial retail ("CR") zoning
district.
The City Council finds that this issue is not required to be reached because a condition
Page 19 - Findings and Conclusions
ATTACI;;IMENT ~
Page ~ of
!OA
of approval requires that the site be limited to a factory outlet center. This is consistent with
the City Council's 1992 and 1998 decisions regarding Phase I of the Woodbum Company
Stores. Thus, a worst case scenario for the highest traffic generator in the CR zoning district
is unnecessary since, in the event the Woodbum Company Stores Phase II and III is not
constructed, the property owner will be required to amend this condition of approval which
will require an amendment to this decision.
(3) OAR 660-12-045 is ~r can be satisfied.
ODOT argues that because the City of Woodbum has not implemented the
requirements of OAR 660-12-055(2), that it must address the applicable provisions of
OAR 660-12-045(3),(4)(a)-(e) and (5)(d). The City Council agrees with ODOT.
· OAR 660-12-045(3)(a).
This section requires bicycle parking facilities as part of new retail developments. The
City Council finds that it is feasible, at the site development review stage, for the application
to provide bicycle parking given the size of the facility (8.0 acres). The finding of feasibility
is based on the similar Phase I development.
· OAR 660-12-045(3)(b).
This criterion requires on-site facilities accommodating safe and convenient pedestrian
and bicycle access within new shopping centers to adjacent residential areas and transit stops.
It also requires that pedestrian circulation through parking lots generally be provided in the
form of access ways.
The City Council finds that it is feasible to satisfy this requirement. As with bicycle
parking facilities, Phase I of the Woodbum Company Stores has demonstrated that it is
feasible to meet both of these requirements. Therefore, the City Council finds that this
criterion can be satisfied.
· OAR 660-12-045(3)(c).
The City Council finds that it is feasible to require off-site road improvements that
would include facilities accommodating convenient pedestrian and bicycle travel. The City
Council has required the applicant, in the approval of Phase I of Woodburn Company Stores,
to provide a bicycle lane and sidewalks along Arney Road.
· OAR 660-12-045(3)(e).
This criterion requires that internal pedestrian circulation within commercial
developments be provided through the location of buildings, construction of accessways,
Page 20 - Findings and Conclusions
ATTACHMENT
Page ~l of
IOA
walkways and similar techniques. The City Council finds that because the applicant satisfied
this requirement in Phase I, it is feasible to satisfy this requirement in Phases II and m.
· OAR 660-12-045(4)(a).
The City Council finds that it is feasible to require this applicant to provide transit
facilities designed to support transit use through the provision of bus stops, pullouts and
shelters, optimum road geometrics, on-road parking restrictions and similar facilities as
appropriate.
· OAR 660-12--045(4)C0).
This criterion requires that retail development at or near major transit stops provide for
convenient pedestrian access to the transit stop. The City Council finds that there is no major
transit stop as that term is defined near this. site.
· OAR 66o42-o45(4)(c).
The City Council finds that this criterion is inapplicable since a pedestrian district has
not been established in this area.
· OAR 66042-045(4)(d).
The City Council finds that it is feasible to require employee parking in Phases H and
IH to provide for preferential car pool and van pool parking. The City Council makes this
finding based on its approval of Phase I.
· OAR 660-12-045(4)(e).
This criterion is inapplicable since it applies to existing development.
· OAR 660-12-045(5)(d).
The City Council lrmds that it is feasible to satisfy this criterion by providing a transit
stop along Amey Road or providing a connection to a transit stop if the transit operator
requires such an improvement. The City Council makes this finding based on its approval of
Phase I of Woodburn Company Stores.
For these reasons, the City Council finds that the issues raised by ODOT have been
satisfied and are not a basis for denial of this application.

Development in March 22, 1999 Letter.

(1) Statewide pl.a. nnin_~ Goal 10. "Housine". Is Satisfied.
DLCD argues that the City must adopt an updated buildable lands needs analysis to
satisfy Goal 10. Only at that point, DLCD suggests, is it possible for the City to assess
whether conversion of 8.0 acres from a multi-family designation to a commercial designation
satisfies Goal 10. The City Council rejects this argument.
This application is subject to compliance with the Goals and the acknowledged Plan.
ORS 197.175(2). Goal l0 simply requires the City to provide for housing needs. The City
has done this. The findings at the outset of this decision state the housing needs of the City of
Woodbum have been satisfied through the year 2014. The acknowledged Plan states that there
are 688 acres of high density residential designation. Of this, 57 acres are undeveloped and
188 acres are underdeveloped. (Plan at pages 15 and 16.)
The Plan further notes that the City has 238 surplus acres designated for multi-family
land uses. (Plan at page 38.) This allows, at 12 dwelling units per acre, an additional
2,353 dwelling units. (Id.) Table 9 of the Plan at page 39 shows that the City has a surplus of
1,305 multi-family dwelling units through the year 2014. The Council notes that the Plan has
recently been amended in March 1996 and in August 1997.
Moreover, assuming that this eight (8.0) acres can accommodate twice the 12 dwelling
units per acre figure, this area would accommodate 192 dwelling units. Removal of this site
from the High Density Residential designation would still leave 1,013 surplus multi-family
dwelling units by the year 2014.
The City Council finds that the acknowledged Plan's determination of a surplus of
multi-family housing units is a sufficient basis for it to determine that this application will
allow the City to continue to meet the housing needs of its citizens. There is no legal
requirement that the City defer this determination until the periodic review is completed as
suggested by DLCD. DLCD's assertion that the City's acknowledged Plan contains an "out-
of-date buildable lands inventory" does not mean that the City cannot rely on its acknowledged
Plan.
(2) Statewide PLonnlng Goal 9 Is Satisfied.
DLCD argues that the City must satisfy the administrative rule implementing Statewide
Planning Goal 9; OAR Chapter 660, Division 9. The City Council finds that this
administrative rule applies only at periodic review. OAR 660-09-10(2). However, assuming
that the administrative rule applies to non-periodic review decisions, the City Council finds, as
it did in 1992 and in 1998 that this application satisfies the administrative rule for the
following reasons.
Page 22 - Findings and Conclusions
ATTACHMENT
Page~ of ,~'-J
IOA
First, this application results in eight (8.0) acres of commercial development which will
increase the amount of the City's property taxes. Increased property taxes provide
additional revenue to the City. Secondly, an eight (8.0) acre commercial development
provides additional jobs for city and area residents. Finally, consistent with the Plan, approval
of this application further encourages the development of the 1-5 commercial area. The
acknowledged plan has long. anticipated that this area will be developed for commercial uses.
(3) The City Ho$ Coordlna.~ed with ODOT, DLCD and Marion County.
DLCD argues that ORS 197.015 provides that a Plan is coordinated when the needs of
all levels of government have been considered and accommodated as much as possible. DLCD
argues that ODOT's needs have not been satisfied since that agency requested a refinement
study. For the reasons described above, the City Couneii finds that a refinement study is not
necessary now. Moreover, the City Council has considered ODOT's request that a refinement
study be prepared before this application is approved but has rejected this request as explained
above. Nothing requires the City Council to agree with ODOT in order to satisfy its
coordination requirement under state law.
Finally, DLCD suggests that the City ought to defer this decision until the City's
periodic review has been completed. However, nothing in state law requires deferral of an
annexation, plan map amendment or zoning map amendment for completion of a periodic
review work task.t
(4) The Apph'cation does not Conflict With Periodic Review.
The City Council rejects DLCD's argument that the Plan amendment must be deferred
until the City has completed its periodic review work tasks. DLCD cites no legal basis for
requiring deferral until the periodic review work tasks are satisfied.
(5) The City Has Satisfied the 45-Day Post Acknowledgment Amendments.
The City caused notice of the February 22, 1999 Planning Commission hearing to be
timely mailed prior to that hearing. However, the "final heating on adoption" of these
amendments was the May 10, 1999 City Council hearing. Thus, both ODOT and DLCD had
I ODOT and DLCD's comments are directed at the comprehensive plan map amendment
and not at the annexation or zoning map amendment. Because ODOT and DLCD have not raised
an issue with the respect to the annexation, there would be no basis for the Land Use Board of
Appeals to remand or reverse the annexation decision. The City Council finds that ODOT and
DLCD raised issues related only to the Plan map amendment and not to the annexation
amendment. Consistent with ORS 197.763(1), these agencies did not raise issues with sufficient
specificity as to the annexation and the zoning map amendment.

more than 45 days notice of the City's final hearing on adoption which is required by OAR
Chapter 660, Division 18. Moreover, to the extent DLCD's comment raises a procedural
error, the City Council finds that the agency's substantial right to a full and fair hearing and an
opportunity to make its case have not been prejudiced. ODOT and DLCD placed letters into
the record and ODOT's representative appeared at the May 10, 1999 City Council hearing.
Thus, both agencies had a full and fair opportunity to make their case)
IV. CONCLUSIONS AND CONDITIONS.
The City Council finds for the reasons contained herein to approve this application subject

(4) That there be no development of Phase II until construction of improvements which
were required for Phase I as conditions of approval for Phase I are completed
satisfactorily.
(5) That the site plan review application shall satisfy OAR 660-12-045.
(6) That the applicant shall not be required to submit an additional traffic impact study
but that traffic mitigation shall be addressed at the time of site plan review.
20DOT requested that the City Council record remain open at the May 10, 1999 heating.
ORS 197.763(4)(b) provides that a City Council may continue a hearing when it is not the initial
evidentiary hearing. The initial evidentiary heating in these applications was the February 22,
1999 Planning Commission hearing. The City Council notes that ODOT's representative did not
object to the City Council's denial of his request that the record remain open.

In our telephone conversation, you seem surprised that I had sent to you a redline/strikeout
version of the changes. I did this as a matter of professional courtesy. There is no need to create
extra work for you. From my perspective, what is imperative is that the City Council be
comfortable that the findings accurately reflect their intent.
Please provide your response to me in a timely manner so I can discuss it with city stalE.
Thank you for your professional courtesy.

Adjacent and On-Site Land Use, Comprehensive Plan Map and Zoning
Map De$i~,nations and Utilities.
(1) Adjacent Comprehensive Plan Map Designations.
Woodburn Company Stores Phase I to the south and east is designated "Commercial"
on the Woodburn Comprehensive Plan ("Plan") map. To the north of this site is the Urban
Growth Boundary which is designated Exclusive Farm Use ("EFU") on the Marion County
Comprehensive Plan map. Land directly to the west of Tax Lot 101 is within the City's Urban
Growth Boundary and is designated "High Density Residential" on the City's Plan map.
(2) Adjacent Zoning Map Designations.
Adjacent property inside the City is zoned CR. Adjacent property outside of the City
but within the UGB is zoned UTF. Adjacent property outside of the UGB is zoned EFU.
(3) Land Use on Adjacent Properties.
The property to the north in Marion County is in farm use. The property to the east
within the Urban Growth Boundary contains a single-family residence. The property to the
south and east within the City limits is under development as Phase I of Woodburn Company
Stores.
(4)
On-Site Land Use.
Tax Lot 101 is vacant.
(5) Utilities.
Public utilities (water, sanitary sewer and storm drainage) are available to the site's
boundaries. There will be no difficulty in connecting these existing public utilities and
providing public utilities to the site. The applicant is responsible for all on-site public facility
improvements.
The City of Woodburn ("City") found in 1992 and 1998 that it had sufficient water,
sanitary sewer and storm drainage capacity to serve the Phase I retail development.
H. PROCEDURAL HISTORY.
The Applicant submitted this application on September 18, 1998. After timely notice
of a public hearing as required by the Woodburn Zoning Ordinance, the Woodburn Planning
Commission heard the application at a public hearing on February 11, 1999. No party
requested that the hearing be continued or that the record remain open. The Planning
Page 2 - Findings and Conclusions
IOA
Commission tentatively approved the application at the conclusion of the public hearing. The
Planning Commission adopted a final order recommending that the Woodburn City Council
approve the application on February 25, 1999.
The City of Woodburn provided timely notice of the City Council's hearing on
May 10, 1999. The City had previously provided the required 45-day written notice to the
Oregon Department of Land Conservation and Development for this post-acknowledgment
amendment.
The Mayor opened the public hearing and read the announcements required by
ORS 197.763(5). No party objected to the City Council's jurisdiction.
The City Council heard testimony from the applicant and the Oregon Department of
Transportation. ODOT requested that the record remain open. However, the City Council
chose not to keep the record open pursuant to ORS 197.763(4)(b). This section provides "if
additional documents or evidence are provided by any party, the local government may allow a
continuance or leave the record open to allow the parties a reasonable opportunity to respond."
The City Council finds that this statute provides it with the discretion as to whether to
keep the record open. In this ease, the application has not changed since the February 11,
1999 Planning Commission hearing and ODOT had the opportunity to place a letter into the
record concerning the application. Moreover, ODOT did not object to the City Council's
denial of its request that the record remain open. The City Council also notes that ODOT did
not request an opportunity to rebut any additional evidence presented at the hearing but had a
full and fair opportunity to make its ease during its testimony. The City Council placed no
time limits on ODOT's testimony.
The Mayor dosed the public hearing. The City Council tentatively approved the
application with a motion by Councilor Figley seconded by Councilor Pugh on a vote of 5-
(Councilor Bjelland opposed). The City Council directed the applicant's attorney to prepare
findings for review by~i~!~-,~~'g'~"- Ci~-y A~i-acy and adoption by the City Council at its
meeting on June 14, 1999. 'l'h~
Page 3 - Findings and Conclusions
IOA
"To protect life and property from natural
disasters."
There are no hazards associated with the subject property.
(vi) G0al 8. "Recreational Needs."
"To satisfy the recreational needs of the citizens of
the state and visitors, where appropriate, to
provide for the siting of necessary recreational
facilities including destination resorts."
The Subject property has not been identified by the City as a potential park site for any
type of recreational facility.
(vii) Goal 9. ~Economic Development.
"To provide adequate opportunities throughout the
state for a variety of economic activities vital to
the health, welfare, and prosperity of Oregon's
citizens. ~
The subject property provides the opportunity to reinforce the activity of the existing
factory outlet center. There is no other site in the Urban Growth Area with the same
locational characteristics. The opportunity for expansion of the factory outlet center to an
abutting parcel will better serve the existing market area and expand the market area, thereby
creating more jobs and local payrolls.
(viii) Goal 10. "Housing."
'To provide for the housing needs of citizens of
the state."
The City of Woodbum has provided for a variety of housing types and densities in its
Plan and implementing ordinances, consistent with the Guidelines for implementing Goal 9.

APPLICABLE APPROVAL CRITERIA.
The City Council herein adopts these findings approving this application. The City
Council expressly incorporates by reference the findings as to the applicable approval criteria
contained in the applicant's submittal dated September 18, 1998. Where there is a conflict
between these findings and that submittal, these findings shall control.
A. Annexation.
(1) Relevant A0nroval Criteria.
a. Statewide Plannln_e Goals ("Goals").
(i) Goal 1. "Citizen Involvement.
"To develop a ciffzen involvement program and
insures the opportunity for citizens to be involved
in all phases of the planning process."
Page 4 - Findings and Conclusions
10A
The City of Woodburn has established a land use notification and hearings procedures
to assure citizen involvement.
(ii) Goal 2. "Land Use Planning."
"To establish a land use planning process and
policy framework as a basis for all decisions and
actions related to the use of land and to assure an
adequate factual base for such decisions and
actions. '
This Goal requires that the City coordinate Plan amendments, including annexations,
with affected governmental units. The City has coordinated this application with Marion
County, the Oregon Department of Transportation ('ODOT'), and the Department Land
Conservation and Development ("DLCD').
Cai)
GOal 5. "Natural Resources. Scenic and Historic Areas.
lind _Open Spaces."
"To protect natural resources and conserve scenic
and historic areas and open spaces."
FINDING:
No Goal 5 resource exists on Tax Lot 101.
(iv) t3oal 6. 'Air. Water and Land Resources Ouality."
'To maintain and improve the quality of the air,
water and land resources of the state.'
State agencies play a key role in achieving this goal. At the time of development, the
Department of Environmental Quality ("DEQ") is responsible for administering permits for
drainage and for air Quality ("DEQ") with respect to large parking facilities. The Division of
State Lands ("DSL") is responsible for administering wetlands.
(v)
Goal 7. 'Areas Sub_iect to Natural Disasters and
H~_ard s."
Page 5 - Findings and Conclusions
IOA
The available inventory of residential land within the UOB exceeds the amount needed to serve
future pOpulation needs.
As documented on page 39 of the Plan, there is sufficient land designated for
residential use in the Plan to accommodate a pOpulation of 28,000, plus a surplus that includes
approximately 100 acres of both the Low Density and High Density Plan designations. This
analysis is based on the carrying capacity of the two (2) residential categories in the plan in
relation to the densities permitted in the underlying zoning. The capacity of the Low Density
Residential designation is six (6) dwelling units per gross acre. The capacity of the High
Density designation is conservatively indexed at a density of twelve (12) dwelling units per
gross acre, where the corresponding zoning allows densities ranging up to twenty-five
(25) dwelling units per gross acre.
(ix) Goal 11, "Public Facilities and Services."
"To plan and develop a timely, orderly and
efficient arrangement of public facilities and
services to serve as a framework for urban and
rural development."
The subject property is well positioned for the further extension of public facilities
constructed to serve Phase I development of the factory outlet center.
(x) Goal 12. "Tran _sportation."
"To provide and encourage a safe, convenient and
economic transportation system."
This Goal is implemented by the Transportation Planning Rule CTPR"). The City of
Woodburn has implemented the Goal 12 and the TPR through the adoption of an
acknowledged Transportation System Plan ("TSP") in 1996, Ordinance 2170. The TSP
accounts for the development of all the land within the Urban Growth Boundary as provided
for the Woodburn Comprehensive Plan.
The TSP fulfills the Goal 12 through facility plans for streets, bicycles, pedestrians,
and transit; implementation priorities and a financing program. The City has established a
TSP that reflects the annexation and urbanization of the subject property. Additional findings
demonstrating compliance with the TPR are found below.
Page 7 - Findings and Conclusions
IOA
(xi) Goal 13. "Energy Conservation."
"To conserve energy."
FINDING:
The development of the subject property will assist in conserving the energy used for
shopping by encouraging one stop shopping due to the aggregation of a wide range of goods at
a single location. The buildings in the center will all conform with required energy
conservation codes.
(xii) Goal 14. "Urbanization."
"To provide for an orderly and efficient transition
from rural to urban land use."
Goal 14 provides for an orderly and efficient transition from rural to urban land use.
Tax Lot 101 is 'urbanizable* and not *rural' since it is within the Urban Growth Boundary.
Urbanizable lands are defined as lands with the UGB which are determined to be necessary and
suitable for future urban uses, can be served by urban services and facilities and are needed for
the expansion of an urban area.
The 8.0 acre annexation is an appropriate parcel to be included within the City. Since
the property abuts the existing factory outlet center, it is a logical location for expansion of the
center. The public need for this particular land use at this pazticular location was documented
in the City's 1992 and 1998 annexation land use approvals of the factory outlet center. As a
facility with a regional market area, the annexation provides the opportunity for the factory
outlet center to increase its market penetration by expanding in a location that has previously
been selected and improved for the purpose. The annexation fulfills the City's need to grow
incrementally and to provide for mutually supporting uses.
(xiii) Goals 3.4.15 and 16 through 19.
The following goals are inapplicable to this proposal: Goal 3, Agricultural Lands;
Goal 4, Forest Lands; Goal 15, Willamette River Greenway; and Goals 16 through 19, the
Coastal Goals.
b. Woodburn Comprehensive Plan.
Page 8 - Findings and Conclusions
(i) Commercial Development Policies
~ B-1. The City should at all times have sufficient land to
accommodate the retail needs of the City and the surrounding market area. The
City presently has four major commercial areas: 99E, I-5 Interchange, the
downtown area and the 214/219/99E four corners intersection area. No new
areas should be established.
10A
Plan page 14 identifies the special market area considerations for commercial uses at
this location:
"This area serves as an interstate service center. It is a freeway
oriented service center. This area also has a more regional retail
orientation than the rest of Woodbum."
Consequently, the need for commercial land in this area is independent of other commercial
sites in the City. There are no comparable sites in the area available for commercial use. The
proposed (a factory outlet center) use can only be served at the proposed location. A factory
outlet center is appropriately located at this location because of its location relative to
transportation facilities
P_I~. I. ands for high traffic generating uses (shopping centers,
malls, restaurants, etc) should be located on well improved arterials. The use
should provide the necessary traffic control devices needed to ameliorate their
impact on the arterial streets.
The subject property is located on Arney Road, which is classified as a "Service
Collector." Arney Road has been improved to essentially the same standards as a "Minor
Arterial," except that the mrn refuge lane is two (2) feet narrower. Arney Road has direct
access to Highway 214, which is classified as a "Major Arterial." The appropriate traffic
control requirements along Arney Road have been identified as part of the traffic impact
analysis.
(ii) Ann~xa~Qn Policies
Pllm Policy D-1. While it is important that enough land is available for the
necessary development anticipated in the City of Woodburn, it is also essential
Page 9 - Findings and Conclusions
IOA
to prevent too much land from being included in the city limits as this leads to
inefficient, sprawling development. The City should ensure that there is a five
(5) year supply of vacant land within the City. Services should be provided to
the land during the five (5) year period.
As found in Commercial Development Policy (V.D. 1.a. above), the 1-5 Interchange
location of the subject property has special, regional market characteristics and therefore is not
directly competitive with other commercial sites within Woodburn. In addition there is
virtually no other vacant commercial land available at the interchange at present. Therefore
the subject property satisfies this policy.
plan Policy D-2. Prior to the approval of Site Plan, Subdivision or Planned
Unit Developments for land annexed to the city west of Interstate 5, a detailed
Transportation Impact Study with the Department of Transportation involvement
will be required.
This process allows the City to condition development with transportation improvement
requirements that are "roughly proportional' to the traffic impacts that are generated by the
development '- "- ' ......... -- iai~a,c~.-~ ............... ........ ' ""-' - - -" --- ' .... -' - ~-- ~
Plan Policy M-4. The County shall retain responsibility for regulating land use
on lands within the urban growth area until such lands are annexed by the City.
The urban growth area has been identified by the City as urbanizable and is
considered to be available, over time, for urban development.
Based on the on-going needs of the community to accommodate growth and the specific
commitment to construct Phase I of the factory outlet center, it is timely to allow urbanization
of the subject property.
Page 10 - Findings and Conclusions
IOA
Plan Policy M-6. Upon receipt of an annexation request or the initiation of
annexation proceedings by the City, the City shall forward information
regarding the request (including any proposed zone change) to the County for
comments and recommendations. The County shall have twenty days to
respond unless they request and the City allows additional time to submit
comments before the City makes a decision on the annexation proposal.
The City notified Marion County of the proposed annexation by letter in November
1998. The County Public Works Department responded December 13, 1998 for the Land Use
and Transportation Divisions. The comments indicated the need for a copy of the
Transportation Impact Analysis for Woodburn Company Stores Phases II & III, dated
December 1998 which was subsequently provided. In addition the County requested a site
plan addressing access, including the abutting property to the west of the subject property.
Plan Policy M-7. All land use actions within the urban growth boundary and
outside the city limits shall be consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan
and County's land use regulations.
The proposed annexation is consistent with the Plan because it is a proposal to permit
the urbanization of the subject property, subject to a concurrent Plan map amendment. There
are no County regulations that preclude the proposed annexation.
PI~ Policy M-11. Conversion of land within the boundary to urban uses be
based on consideration of [the following five (5) factors]:
aw
Orderly, economic provision of public facilities and
services;
All the public facilities necessary to develop the abutting property for the same use
have been provided. Access to these public facilities therefore only requires minor extensions.
bo
Availability of sufficient land for the various uses to
ensure choices in the marketplace;
Page 11 - Findings and Conclusions
IOA
The proposed annexation is required to provide the opportunity for future expansion of
a specific regional commercial use in the only site within the City that is appropriate.
c. LCDC Goals;
The LCDC Statewide Goals are addressed above.
Encouragement of in-filling development within
developed areas before conversion of urbanizable areas;
and
As a site to expand a specific existing use there are no in-fill locations that are suitable
for this purpose.
ee
Applicable provision of the Marion County and City
comprehensive plans.
The proposed annexation is found to be consistent with the applicable portions of the
Woodbum Comprehensive Plan as indicated in section V.D. The proposal is consistent with
the Marion County Comprehensive Plan in that the County Plan establishes the Urban Growth
Boundary as the area specifically set aside for urbanization after annexation to the City.
d. Transportation System Plan
· Functional Classification of Streets.
The proposed Plan amendment does not warrant any change in the functional
classification of streets as shown on TSP Figure 29.
TSP Figure 29 indicates a potential street connection along the north boundary of the
subject property. Marion County has also indicated this need (Attachment A). The
appropriate facility to fulfill this need will be addressed at the time of site plan review for
Phases II and III.
Page 12 - Findings and Conclusions
IOA
· Improvement Projects.
FINDING:
Development of a commercial use will cause the need for transportation facility
improvements as described in the TIA. These improvements are consistent with those
described in the TSP.
B. Comprehensive Plan Map Amendment
(1) Proposal.
The proposal is to change the Plan map designation for this site from "High
Density Residential" to "Commercial."
(2) Relevant Approval Criteria.
a. Plan Amendment Criteria, Woodbum Zoning Ordinance,
Section 16.050:
"a. Compliance with Statewide Goals.
'b. Compliance with Woodburn Comprehensive Plan Goals
and Policies'
'c. Demonstrated Public Need for the Plan Map Amendment.
"d. Proposal Best Satisfies the Need.
b. Burden of Proof, Woodburn Zoning Ordinance,

· (~omoliance with Woodburn Comprehensive Plan Goals and Policies.
The findings regarding compliance with applicable Woodburn Comprehensive Plan
Goals and Policies are found above and are expressly incorporated herein by reference.
· Demonstrated Public Need for the Plan Map Amendment.
Page 13 - Findings and Conclusions
IOA
The proposed change in the Plan map from "High Density Residential' fulfills a
demonstrated public need. It represents a change from the way the Plan was originally
mapped but was accounted for in the goals and policies of Plan. Consistency with the intent of
the Plan demonstrates that the public need is served by the change. As time passes, there is a
public need to weigh issues and opportunities and recognize that incremental changes to the
Plan map benefit the community.
In this instance, there is demonstrated public need to accommodate an opportunity to
strengthen the economy, consistent with Goal 9. Goal 9 states that the Plan shall provide for
at least an adequate supply of sites of suitable sizes, types, location and service levels for a
variety of commercial uses consistent with plan policies. Currently the Plan is lacking a
adequate supply of suitably located property that can be used to bolster the regional shopping
function at the Woodburn Interchange. The subject change is needed to achieve the full
potential of the interchange, particularly the existing factory outlet center. The public need is
served by expanded employment opportunities and desirable mix of land uses for a
freestanding community.
The Statewide Guidelines for Economic Development address the public's need to
accommodate expansion of commercial use. The Statewide Guidelines state that:
'Plans should strongly emphasize the expansion of and
increased productivity from existing firms as a means to
strengthen local and regional economic developmenff.
The subject change in the Plan designation is needed to be consistent with this guideline. The
Plan change augments the supply of suitable sites. The proposal is the only available site that
not only accounts for market forces, market location, and key public facilities, but that is
readily adaptable to expansion of the existing mall layout. The, proposal maximizes the use of
the existing facilities and the location advantages provided by freeway visibility and access and
complementary commercial uses.
The proposal is consistent with the Woodburn commercial land use policies. Part of
the public need is to exercise the Plan in away that recognizes change and positive growth
opportunities that build a strong, liveable community. The proposal is consistent with the
Plan. This consistency is demonstrated in section V.D. above.
Key considerations in reviewing the need for the change include the fact that it
concentrates commercial activity in a priority commercial area. Concentrating commercial
provides the benefit of cumulative attraction which in turn enhances market share and reduces
overall shopping trips. And significantly, the map change takes advantage of existing public
and private investment.
· Proposal Best Satisfies the Need.
Page 14 - Findings and Conclusions
IOA
The need for additional commercial land to support the expansion of the existing
factory outlet center is best served by this property. This reinforces the policy of
concentrating commercial development. It strengthens the shopping pattern for existing
commercial uses and avoids the proliferation of commercial uses in a dispersed pattern that
lacks the mutual support of like uses.
In this specific instance a commitment has already been made in this location to
establish a special shopping area that serves a regional market area. This is the only location
in Woodburn that has the visibility, the access and an existing commercial use of this type.
The subject property is the only site within the community that can accommodate the
expansion of the existing factory outlet center.
The previous actions by the City in 1992 and 1998 clearly have set the stage that there
is a community need for this type of commercial use. Based on the public and private
commitments and investments, the location characteristics and the conformance with
commercial land use policy the subject property best satisfies the need for the expansion of the
factory outlet center.
· Burden of Proof.
(1) first criterion is to prove that the original Plan was in error.
Conditions have changed since the Comprehensive Plan was originally drafted and first
adopted in 1978. In that context there are errors in the forecasts as well as the assumptions
about the composition of uses in land use categories. Such errors reflect changes in
circumstance that warrant amending the Plan map.
(~)
The second criterion requires showing how the community has changed
since the original Plan was adopted
The 1992 and 1998 decisions to approve the site for the retail center found that the
actual population growth in Woodburn substantially exceeded the population forecast used to
formulate the original Plan. This increased rate of population is found to demonstrate a
change for the predicted patterns of growth since those apparent when the Plan was adopted.
The findings of the previous decision also describe how multi-family land needs were
over estimated in the original plan and that the interchange location is a less than optimum
location for a large concentration of multi-family residential use. Present circumstances
confirm that finding.
Page 15 - Findings and Conclusions
IOA
In addition, the exposure and access provided by the interchange location has resulted
in the development of the factory outlet retail center, a use which has a regional market.
Commercial development with a regional market was not anticipated or accounted for in the
original plan. The commercial activity with this broad market does not supplant local
commercial uses but rather adds to the commercial land needs of the City.
(iii)
The ordinance provides the alternative to address either the second or
third criterion. Having addressed the second criterion, above there is no
requirement to address the third criterion.
C. Z0nln~ Ma0 Amendment.

Initiation of a Zone Change by Petition, Woodbum Zoning Ordinance,
Section 15.030
· Burden of Proof, Woodbum Zoning Ordinance, Section 16.080(b)
· Woodburn Comprehensive Plan Goals and Policies
(2) Woodburn Com_oreherr~ive Plan Goals and Policies.
Findings on these criteria are addressed in above, and are incorporation herein by
reference. The City Council finds that the Commercial Plan map designations implemented by
the CR zoning district.
D. R~_oonse to Issues Raised by the Oregon Department of Transportation.
The Oregon Department of Transportation CODOT") submitted two letters into the
record dated February 4, 1999 and May 5, 1999. The May 5, 1999 letter states that it is
intended to update comments contained in the February 4, 1999 letter. This portion of the
decision responds to issues raised by ODOT.
As noted with respect to Goal 2, the City is required to give notice of this application
tO ODOT, to allow ODOT an opportunity to comment on the application and to consider the
comments as much as possible. The City is not required, however, to agree with
ODOT's comments or to adopt them.
(1) The City Council finds that the I-5/Highway 214/219 Interchange will be
improved with sufficient capacity consistent with the adopted City of Woodbum Transportation
System Plan ("TSP").
Page 16 - Findings and Conclusions
IOA
ODOT argues that the applicant's transportation impact study ("TIS") is flawed because
it is: "Based on the assumption that a major improvement to the I-5 Interchange will be
completed. Such an improvement is not, however, included in the City's TSP or the
Woodburn Comprehensive Plan. In fact, the TSP contains Goal 2, Policy 2, which states:
"Develop a strategy for providing improved access to 1-5
from the Woodburn area, through either improvements of the
existing Highway 214 Interchange and/or a new interchange in
the Woodburn vicinity (with supporting local roadway
improvements). This strategy will be developed following a
refinement study as outlined in the Transportation Planning
Rule. '

The City Council finds that the applicant's TIS demonstrates that the application will
not have a significant affect on the transportation facility identified as the I-
5/Highway 214/219 Interchange. Table 4 of the TIS prepared by Kittelson & Associates, Inc.
CKAI") shows that in the year 2001, 1-5 will operate during a Friday p.m. peak hour at level
of service ("LOS") "C" or better, with minor improvements. TIS at pages 24-25. TIS
Table 5 shows that in the year 2003, the interchange will operate at LOS "D" or better. The
City Council finds nothing in the TPR requires it to look at the year 2015. In order to
determine whether the application has a present significant affect on the application, the City
Council finds that Tables 4 and 5 demonstrate that the application will cause the interchange to
operate at acceptable LOS through at least the next four (4) years.
In the whereas clauses adopted by the City Council for the TSP, a number of findings
demonstrate that the TSP, ~i~}i~:~i~::::7~f~F~:ii~ -,~-as in~eiided to satisfy the
capacity requirements of the TPR at this interchange. The City Council notes that neither
ODOT nor the Oregon Department of Land Conservation and Development CDLCD")
appealed the City Council's adoption of its TSP.
Page 17 - Findings and Conclusions
IOA
One whereas clause adopted by the City Council for the TSP found:
"The City Council finds that the transportation system plan
adopted herein complies with OAR 660-12-060(1)(b) for the
affected transportation facilities, including but not limited to the
Highway 214/1-5 Interchange/Parr Road area."
Further, incorporated in the staff report for the TSP were several findings relevant to
the TPR. The City Council adopted findings regarding OAR 660-12-025(1). This section of
the TPR provides "except as provided in Section (3) in this rule, adoption of a TSP shall
constitute the land use decision regarding the need for transportation facilities, services and
major improvements in their function, mode and general location."
.......... , .................... g~ ---
Additionally, the City Council found that the TSP satisfied OAR 660-12-030. The City
Council found:
"The TSP identifies the City's transportation needs including
those of the transportation disadvantaged, and support of
industrial and commercial development. These needs were based
on a 20-year forecast in population and employment within the
acknowledged comprehensive plan."
Further, the City Council adopted findings regarding OAR 660-12-060(1). The City
Council found:
Page 18 - Findings and Conclusions
IOA
"That the transportation system plan adopted here complies with
OAR 660-12-060(1)(b) for the affected transportation facility,
including but not limited to the Highway 214/I-5
Interchange/Parr Road area.'
The TSP adopted by the City Council adopted three (3) I-5 access alternatives (see TSP
at page 1). The TSP states: 'An element of the TSP is an improvement to existing I-5/214
Interchange" and "a reconfiguration of the interchanges proposed." (TSP at page 89.)
The City Council also notes that Table 6 (TSP at page 41) shows that at least one of the
options (the two interchange options) would result in LOS "D" or better in the year 2015.
The TSP contains a section entitled "Required Street Upgrades." The portion of this
section dealing with freeways states: "In the longer-term, reconfigurafion of the interchange is
proposed. A specific improvement (improve existing interchange, split diamond interchange
or second interchange at Butteville Road) will be identified through a follow-up interchange

The City Council finds that it need not complete the refinement study prior to this

identifies ~i'...'lhat a solution will be identified, the TSP has determined that the interchange

strategy will be developed following a refinement study as outlined in the TPR. OAR 660-12-
025(3)(e) says that deferral of a solution to a refinement plan is allowed if it does not
invalidate the TSP. In this ease, the refinement plan carries out the TSP's acknowledged
strategies without invalidating them. For these reasons, the City Council finds that the lack of
Page 19 - Findings and Conclusions

refinement study is not an impediment to a conclusion that the 1-5 has sufficient capacity in the
short term, as required by the TPR, and in the long term sufficient capacity will be provided
through a solution identified in a refinement study.

The City Council finds that KAI's TIS correctly analyzes the level of servi¢e ~
ODOT argued that the TIS does not adequately analyze the plan amendment impacts.
ODOT requested that the TIS be revised to reflect a "worst case analysis," meaning an analysis
of the highest traffic generating land use permitted in the commercial retail CCR") zoning
district.
The City Council finds that this issue is not required to be reached because a condition
of approval requires that the site be limited to a factory outlet center. This is consistent with
the City Council's 1992 and 1998 decisions regarding Phase I of the Woodburn Company
Stores. Thus, a worst case scenario for the highest traffic generator in the CR zoning district
is unnecessary since, in the event the Woodburn Company Stores Phase II and III is not
constructed, the property owner will be required to amend this condition of approval which
will require an amendment to this decision.
(3) OAR 660-12-045 is or Can be satisfied.
Page 20 - Findings and Conclusions
IOA
ODOT argues that because the City of Woodburn has not implemented the
requirements of OAR 660-12-055(2), that it must address the applicable provisions of
OAR 660-12-045(3),(4)(a)-(e) and (5)(d). The City Council agrees with ODOT.
· OAR 660-12-045(3)(a).
This section requires bicycle parking facilities as part of new retail developments. The
City Council finds that it is feasible, at the site development review stage, for the application
to provide bicycle parking given the size of the facility (8.0 acres). The finding of feasibility
is based on the similar Phase I development.
· OAR 660-12~5(3)~).
This criterion requires on-site facilities accomm~g safe and convenient pedestrian
and bicycle access within new shopping centers to adjacent residential areas and transit stops.
It also requires that pedestrian circulation through parking lots generally be provided in the
form of access ways.
The City Council finds that it is feasible to satisfy this requirement. As with bicycle
parking facilities, Phase I of the Woodburn Company Stores has demonstrated that it is
feasible to meet both of these requirements. Therefore, the City Council finds that this
criterion can be satisfied.
· OAR 660-12-045(3)(e).
The City Council finds that it is feasible to require off-site road improvements that
would include facilities accommodating convenient pedestrian and bicycle travel. The City
Council has required the applicant, in the approval of Phase I of Woodburn Company Stores,
to provide a bicycle lane and sidewalks along Amey Road.
· oAR 66o-12-o450)(e).
This criterion requires that internal pedestrian circulation within commercial
developments be provided through the location of buildings, construction of accessways,
walkways and similar techniques. The City Council finds that because the applicant satisfied
this requirement in Phase I, it is feasible to satisfy this requirement in Phases II and III.
· OAR 660-12-045(4)(a).
The City Council finds that it is feasible to require this applicant to provide transit
facilities designed to support transit use through the provision of bus stops, pullouts and
shelters, optimum road geometries, on-road parking restrictions and similar facilities as
appropriate.
Page 21 - Findings and Conclusions
lOC
ATTACHMENT 1
IOA
· OAR 660-12-045(4)(b).
This criterion requires that retail development at or near major transit stops provide for
convenient pedestrian access to the transit stop. The City Council finds that there is no major
transit stop as that term is defined near this site.
· OAR 660-12-045(4)(c).
The City Council finds that this criterion is inapplicable since a pedestrian district has
not been established in this area.
· OAR 660-12-045(4)(d).
The City Council finds that it is feasible to require employee parking in Phases II and
III to provide for preferential car pool and van pool parking. The City Council makes this
finding based on its approval of Phase I.
· OAR 660-12-045(4)(e).
This criterion is inapplicable since it applies to existing development.
· OAR 660-124~5(5)(d).
The City Council finds that it is feasible to satisfy this criterion by providing a transit
stop along Arney Road or providing a connection to a transit stop if the transit operator
requires such an improvement. The City Council makes this finding based on its approval of
Phase I of Woodburn Company Stores.
For these reasons, the City Council finds that the issues raised by ODOT have been
satisfied and are not a basis for denial of this application.
Response to issues raised by Department of Land Conservation and
Dcvel0pmen~ in Msrch 22. 1999 Letter.
(1) Statewide Planning Goal 10. "Housing". Is Satisfied.
DLCD argues that the City must adopt an updated buildable lands needs analysis to
satisfy Goal 10. Only at that point, DLCD suggests, is it possible for the City to assess
whether conversion of 8.0 acres from a multi-family designation to a commercial designation
satisfies Goal 10. The City Council rejects this argument.
This application is subject to compliance with the Goals and the acknowledged Plan.
ORS 197.175(2). Goal 10 simply requires the City to provide for housing needs. The City
Page 22 - Findings and Conclusions
has done this. The findings at the outset of this decision state the housing needs of the City of
Woodburn have been satisfied through the year 2014. The acknowledged Plan states that there
are 688 acres of high density residential designation. Of this, 57 acres are undeveloped and
188 acres are underdeveloped. (Plan at pages 15 and 16.)
The Plan further notes that the City has 238 surplus acres designated for multi-family
land uses. (Plan at page 38.) This allows, at 12 dwelling units per acre, an additional
2,353 dwelling units. (Id_~.. Table 9 of the Plan at page 39 shows that the City has a surplus of
1,305 multi-family dwelling units through the year 2014. The Council notes that the Plan has
recently been amended in March 1996 and in August 1997.
Moreover, assuming that this eight (8.0) acres can accommodate twice the 12 dwelling
units per acre figure, this area would accommodate 192 dwelling units. Removal of this site
from the High Density Residential designation would still leave 1,013 surplus multi-family
dwelling units by the year 2014.
The City Council finds that the acknowledged Plan's determination of a surplus of
multi-family housing units is a sufficient basis for it to determine that this application will
allow the City to continue to meet the housing needs of its citizens. There is no legal
requirement that the City defer this determination until the periodic review is completed as
suggested by DLCD. DLCD's assertion that the City's acknowledged Plan contains an rout-
of-date buildable lands inventory' does not mean that the City cannot rely on its acknowledged
Plan.
(2) Statewide Planning Goal 9 Is Satisfied.
DLCD argues that the City must satisfy the administrative rule implementing Statewide
Planning Goal 9; OAR Chapter 660, Division 9. The City Council finds that this
administrative rule applies only at periodic review. OAR 660-09-10(2). However, assuming
that the administrative rule applies to non-periodic review decisions, the City Council finds, as
it did in 1992 and in 1998 that this application satisfies the administrative rule for the
following reasons.
First, this application results in eight (8.0) acres of commercial development which will
increase the ~i~ii~iiiCity's property tax~. baser. A-n Increased property tax~ base
provides additional revenue to the City. Secondly, an eight (8.0) acre commercial
development provides additional jobs for city and area residents. Finally, consistent with the
Plan, approval of this application further encourages the development of the I-5 commercial
area. The acknowledged plan has long anticipated that this area will be developed for
commercial uses.
(3) The City Has Coordinated with QDOT, DLCD and Marion County.
Page 23 - Findings and Conclusions
IOA
DLCD argues that ORS 197.015 provides that a Plan is coordinated when the needs of
all levels of government have been considered and accommodated as much as possible. DLCD
argues that ODOT's needs have not been satisfied since that agency requested a refinement
study. For the reasons described above, the City Council finds that a refinement study is not
necessary now. Moreover, the City Council has considered ODOT's ~request that a refinement
study be prepared before this application is approved but has rejected this request as explained
above. Nothing requires the City Council to agree with ODOT in order to satisfy its
coordination requirement under state law.
Finally, DLCD suggests that the City ought to defer this decision until the City's
periodic review has been completed. However, nothing in state law requires deferral of an
annexation, plan map amendment or zoning map amendment for completion of a periodic
review work task.~
(4) The Application does not Conflict With Periodic Review.
The City Council rejects DLCD's argument that the Plan amendment must be deferred
until the City has completed its periodic review work tasks. DLCD cites no legal basis for
requiring deferral until the periodic review work tasks are satisfied.
(5) The City Has Satisfied the 45-Day Post Acknowledgment Amendments.
The City mused notice of the February 22, 1999 Planning Commission hearing to be
timely mailed prior to that heating. However, the "final hearing on adoptionN of these
amendments was the May 10, 1999 City Council hearing. Thus, both ODOT and DLCD had
more than 45 days notice of the City's final heating on adoption which is required by OAR
Chapter 660, Division 18. Moreover, to the extent DLCD's comment raises a procedural
error, the City Council finds that the agency's substantial right to a full and fair hearing and an
opportunity to make its case have not been prejudiced. ODOT and DLCD placed letters into
the record and ODOT's representative appeared at the May 10, 1999 City Council hearing.
Thus, both agencies had a full and fair opportunity to make their case?
~ ODOT and DLCD's comments are directed at the comprehensive plan map
amendment and not at the annexation or zoning map amendment. Because ODOT and DLCD
have not raised an issue with the respect to the annexation, there would be no basis for the
Land Use Board of Appeals to remand or reverse the annexation decision. The City Council
finds that ODOT and DLCD raised issues related only to the Plan map amendment and not to
the annexation amendment. Consistent with ORS 197.763(1), these agencies did not raise
issues with sufficient specificity as to the annexation and the zoning map amendment.
20DOT requested that the City Council record remain open at the May 10, 1999
heating. O~ts i97.763(4)(V) proviaes mat' a uity uouncn may conttnue a I~eanng when it is

City Annexation Disapproved by the Oregon Department of Revenue (Heritage

The Annexation process calls for the City to submit all Annexations to the Oregon
Department of Revenue for final approval. The City's practice has been to provide the
Revenue Department the legal description for review prior to submitting the Ordinance to
Council for adoption. Inadvertently, this process was not followed in this case. I provided the
City Attorney a legal description for Ordinance adoption, which was prepared by a registered
surveyor, with a map that was correct but the written legal narrative that was incorrect. This
was discovered after Council approved Ordinance 2232 by the Oregon Department of
Revenue.
The legal description that is incorporated in the attached Ordinance has now been
reviewed and approved by the Department of Revenue.

subject: Fiesta Special Event Permit to Use Le~ion Park
RECOMMENDATION:
Authorize the Recreation and Parks Director to sign the Special Evem Park Use Permit with
the Fiesta Committee for the 1999 Fiesta at Legion Park.
As reviewed and recommended by the Chief of Police, authorize the use of sound
amplification equipment as follows:
Friday, August 6, 1999; 10 a.m. to 11 p.m.
Saturday, August 7, 1999; 10 a.m. to 11 p.m.
Sunday, August 8, 1999; 10 a.m. to 10 p.m.
BACKGROUND:
The Fiesta Committee is planning the 1999 Fiesta at Legion Park. Event organizers are preparing
an event for August 6 - 8, 1999. They envision more than 30,000 visitors to the event this year.
DISCUSSION:
The Recreation and Parks Department has prepared a Special Event Permit for the 1999 fiesta
(Attachment 1). This Permit is similar to the permit issued for the 1998 Fiesta. That Permit guided
a successful Fiesta that operated very smoothly. The Police Department has approved the Fiesta's
Dance and Parade Permits.
Among the provisions of the permit is a section on fees. Staff proposes a "no fee" permit. The
Permit also requires the Committee to post a $1,250 deposit to cover the costs for repairs should that
be necessary. Attachment 2 describes examples of conditions that would require the Department's
retention ora portion or all of the deposit. These conditions were suggested to the Fiesta Committee
as examples. Other conditions not listed could arise that might result in retention of all or portions
of the deposit. Also, considering the level of organization that the Committee has achieved, it is
possible that the entire deposit might be returned.

CONCLUSION:
The Recreation and Parks Department looks forward to working with the Fiesta Committee to
produce this important community event. In many ways the Recreation and Parks Department and
the City are in partnership with the generous volunteers who organize the Fiesta. Together, we
expect that the 1999 Fiesta will be one of our best ever.

subject: Potential Deposit Expenses
Similar to last year, the City has retained a $1,250 deposit from Fiesta organizers to recover costs for repairs
to City property if necessary. These costs do not include costs to help set up, rental, routine maintenance or
other expenses to accommodate the Fiesta.
To help develop a common understanding about the types of costs the City will charge to the deposit, the
following list is provided. Please understand that this list represents examples to clarify the types of damage
reasonably anticipated after an intensive three day event such as the Fiesta Committee is planning. Other
conditions and damages not anticipated could arise that qualify for charges to the deposit.
Potential Damage or Occunvncc Potential Cost to Repair
Vehicle damage to electrical services, turf; fences, park furniture or $500 per occurrence
buildings.
'Plumbing repairs (shelter sinks). $100 per repair
Crashed irrigation pipe. $150 per pipe
Repair to electrical system for overloaded circuits (breakers, etc.). $100 per occurrence
Clean up after permit expires (dump fees, labor, etc.). $500
Stolen supplies. $100
These items are potential problems that we could reasonably expect to happen. The deposit ensures to the City
that the resources are available to repair damages that the Fiesta incurs.
Before the Fiesta moves into the park, no later than Tuesday, August 3, 1999, we will walk through the park
to make a detailed inventory of existing cxmditions. This walk through will detail damage and other conditions
so that possible pre-existing damage is not attributed to the Fiesta. We will also confirm last minute facility
arrangements such as use of keys, stadium access, sound systems and other event details.
Thank you for your efforts in organizing community resources for this celebration. The Recreation and Parks
Department looks forward to working with you to make the 1999 event a success

Subject: Sound Amplification Permit - Centro Cristiano A/G Church
Ordinance 1900, 3, (5)
The use or operation of an automatic or electric piano,
phonograph, loudspeaker or sound-amplifying device so
loudly as to disturb persons in the vicinity thereof or in such
manner as renders the same a public nuisance; provided
however, that upon application to the Council permits may
be granted to responsible persons or organizations to
broadcast programs of music; news speeches or general
entertainment.
The police department has received a request for a sound amplification permit from
Centro Cristiano NG Church, 257 W. Lincoln Street., for Saturday, August 7, 1999,
from 4:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m., at Library Park. The church is also requesting a sound
amplification permit for an outdoor church service at 257 W. Lincoln St. on Sunday,
August 8, 1999, from 4:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m.
Centro Cristiano is also requesting street closure on Sunday, August 8, 1999, from
4:30 p.m. and 8:30 p.m., Lincoln Street between First and Second Streets. The church
event is intended to draw from the general public which possibly could cause an
overflow of persons into the street. For safety reasons, the church would like to close
the street in front of their church. I have met with Pastor Pineda and discussed
placement of barricades on Lincoln St. which would not restrict access to the Post
Office, M&M Towing, or First and Second Streets
Recommendation: The City Council approve a sound amplification permit for Centro
Cristiano A/G Church for August 7 & 8, 1999 from, 4:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. and street
closure of Lincoln Street between First and Second Streets on August 8, 1999, from

the A.Imighty does make use of human agencies and directly intervenes in human affairs is one of the
plainest statements in the Bible. I have had~e many evidences of His Direction, so many instances
when I have been controlled by some other power than my own will, that '1 cannot doubt that this power'
comes from above." A new day is coming and this year ends making history. May almighty God give
you each a leading for this City as we e,-,te~ the NeW Millennium. ,

asking permission to use the Library Park Stage August 7, 1999 for the purpose of having food, live
music between the hours 4:30 PM and 8:30 PM. This year Joe Pedrojetti who has become will know

alcohol and gangs for many young people. Joe shares and testifies of what God has done in his life and
as a Boxer.

Re:
STAFF REPORT
National Night Out, Tuesday, August 3, 1999
On Tuesday, August 3rd, neighborhoods throughout Woodburn are being invited to join forces
with thousands of communities nationwide for the "16th Annual National Out." National Night
Out will involve over 9,420 communities from all 50 states in the United States, U.S. territories,
Canadian cities and military bases around the word. In all, over 31.1 million people are expected
to participate in America's Night Out Against Crime and Drugs on August 3rd.
National Night Out is designed to: (1) heighten crime and drug prevention awareness; (2) generate
support and participation in local anti-crime efforts; (3) strengthen neighborhood spirit and police-
community relations; (4) send a message to criminals, letting them know neighborhoods,
communities, businesses and the police are organized and fighting back.
From 7:00 to 10:00 p.m. on August 3rd, residents in neighborhoods throughout Woodburn and
across the nation asked to lock their homes, turn on outside lights and spend the evening outside
with their neighbors and the police. Many Neighborhoods throughout Woodburn will be hosting
a variety of special events such as block parties, cookouts, ice cream socials, organized flashlight
walks, visits from the police and McGruff the crime fighting dog.
National Night Out Coordinator, Matt Peskin said, "National Night Out is an ideal opportunity
for citizens and law enforcement nationwide to form powerful partnerships in the fight for a safer
and more liveable America. National Night Out is a powerful reminder that the crime/drug
prevention awareness and programs must be nurtured and sustained every day of the year. On
Tuesday, August 3rd, millions will join forces to Give Crime and Drugs A Going Away Party."
COUNCIL ACTION
In order to accommodate the citizens of Woodburn who wish to close their streets for block
parties, I am requesting the Mayor and Council give the Chief of Police the authority to authorize
street closures on Tuesday, August 3, 1999 from 6:00 to 10:00 p.m.

Executive Employee Performance Evaluations
Recommendation:
It is recommended the City Council provide an opportunity for Public comment
on the form and process for evaluating the City Administrator and City Attorney.
Background:
State statute requires that the City Council provide an opportunity for the public
to comment on the process for evaluating the City Administrator. The City Attorney has
suggested the same opportunity for public comment should be given before the Council
evaluates his performance.
Discussion:
I developed a form for evaluating executive managers, which will be expanded
during the next year into a tool for evaluating all managers on a pay-for-performance
basis. A copy of the form is attached for the public's information and comment, and your
use in evaluating me and the City Attorney. The form is still a draft, and will be modified
according to any guidance provided at your July 26, 1999. It allows you to rate your
executive managers on the basis of how well we perform our job responsibilities and on
our work methods and personal work characteristics. It also provides you an opportunity
to establish a performance development plan for us for the coming evaluation period.
That plan will be the basis for subsequent evaluations. The form also defines criteria and
provides a framework for compensation adjustments.
To initiate the evaluation process, your are asked to approve the attached form. It
is proposed that each of you will then complete the form, in anticipation of evaluation
sessions for the City Attorney and myself. Mr. Shield's evaluation is scheduled for
August 9, 1999 meeting. My evaluation is scheduled for September 13, 1999.
Evaluations will be conducted in closed session, unless either of us requests an evaluation
in open session. It is proposed that you will discuss your individual rating responses and
comments in the evaluation session, and an overall rating will be assigned by consensus.
Compensation adjustments, if any, would be based on that consensus. Actions to be
taken in conjunction with the evaluations will occur in open session.
Conclusion:
The attached form is intended to offer a simple and concise tool, and meaningful
criteria for rating the performance of your executive managers. Your meeting of July
Mayor and City Council
July 26, 1999
Page 2.
IOH
26, 1999 will offer the opportunity for public comment on the evaluation process required
by statute, prior to Mr. Shield's evaluation in August, and my evaluation in September.

evaluation process, please contact me at your earliest convenience.

Name
Title/Classification
Evaluation Date
Department/Division
Time in Classification
Date of Last Evaluation
Part 1. Rating on Performance of Job Responsibilities. List in priority the four or five job
responsibilities performed by the employee, referring to job description for the classification. Evaluate
and assign the standard which best relates to the employee's performance during the review period.
State the reasons for your selected rating in the space provided for comments.
Part 2. Rating on Work Methods and Desirable Characteristics. Rate the Employee on the work
being performed and on achievement of desirable work characteristics by assigning the standard
which best relates to the employee's performance during the review period. State the reasons for
your selected rating in the space provided for comments. Ratings should be awarded based on
employee's performance for the entire rating period, and not based on an isolated incident.
Part 3. Summary of Overall Performance. Rate the employee's overall performance, based on
the ratings assigned in Parts I and 2.
Part 4. Compensation Adjustment. Indicate, based on overall performance whether employee's
performance warrants a merit increase or other compensation adjustment. Compensation
adjustments shall not be granted for overall performance which does not consistently meet job
requirements. Compensation adjustments may be granted for performance which consistently meets
job requirements, but shall be limited to the percentage of increase granted to other management
employees for annual step adjustments within their salary ranges. Compensation adjustments shall
be granted for unique and exceptional performance or performance which frequently exceeds job
requirements. Such adjustments shall be negotiated between the City Council and the executive
employee.
Part 5. Performance Development Plan.
A. Detail areas where improvement in employee's performance is required.
B. Indicate specific goals and objectives to be achieved by employee during coming rating
period.
C. Identify, with employee's assistance, actions to be taken, and resources needed to assist
employee in improving performance and achieving goals and objectives for the coming
period.
Executive Employee Performance Evaluation
Page I of 6
IOH
1. Unique and exceptional performance achieved by very few individuals.
The employee consistently exceeded all key performance expectations: required practically no
direction and work quality and quantity were consistently excellent. With this rating, you are
recognizing really outstanding worth to the organization. This performance category should be
reserved for performance that clearly exceeds expectations in all key areas.
2. Performance that consistently meets and frequently exceeds job requirements.
The employee fully met and frequently exceeded performance expectations: quality and quantity
of work were very good and minimal supervision was required, assignments were completed on
time or ahead of schedule, and extra projects and tasks were taken on while principal
responsibilities were done well. This rating means the employee clearly achieved more than a
manager might have been reasonably expected to achieve.
3. Performance that consistently meets job requirements.
The employee met and sometimes exceeded performance expectations with a normal amount of
supervision: completed projects and programs on time and with normal follow-up required while
quality and quantity of work were good. This rating is for those who have surpassed expectations
in some elements of performance while meeting or even occasionally falling short of expectation
in others. Since this category represents fully competent performance and it will be given to
about half of the employees, it should be viewed as a good appraisal rating.
4. Performance where improvements are needed to meet some job requirements.
The employee is performing slightly below the minimum requirements for the position:
improvement is needed to meet the normal performance requirements to remain in the current
position. This rating indicates that without significant improvement in the near future, termination
should be considered.
5. Performance which is unacceptable.
The employee did not meet several performance expectation: assignments were not
accomplished as scheduled or quality of quantity of work was unacceptable and intensive
direction and corrective counseling were required. This rating signifies that, overall, the work was
not satisfactory and immediate significant improvement required if the employee is to remain in
the position.

A. Woodburn Comprehensive Plan
The applicable land development policies have been addressed by the applicant.
C. Industrial Land Use Policies
O-1.
It is the policy of the city to provide for developments that,
whenever possible, will allow residents of the City of
Woodburn to work in Woodburn and not have to seek
employment in other areas. To accomplish this the city
should encourage that there be a healthy job market within
the city and enough industrial land is available for industrial
growth to accommodate the residential growth expected in
the city.
STAFF COMMENT: While there is no site plan or planned
development, this proposed action will add additional 'zoned light
industrial land within the city limits that could be developed to
provide an additional source of employment for city residents.
ANNEX 98-04,ZMA 98-05, MP 98-09 Page 3
C-2
Industrial land should be located so as to insure that road
transportation and secondarily, rail transportation, is available
to the industrial areas.
STAFF COMMENT: The industrial zoned portion has a permitted
access onto an arterial roadway. In addition it is adjacent to the
Union Pacific railroad tracks offering the potential for rail access in
addition.
C-3
It is essential that industrial lands be located on areas which
have good soils and are free from flooding dangers.
STAFF COMMENT: The land is at an elevation where flooding will
not be a hazard and the soils are conducive to development needs.
C-4
Industrial areas which are located adjacent to arterial streets
or to residential areas should be controlled through site plan
review and buffer zones so as to minimize the impact of
industrial uses.
STAFF COMMENT: The industrially zoned portion of the property,
which is adjacent to an arterial roadway, will be required to undergo
a thorough site plan review process prior to approval of any
industrial development on the site although the adjoining land uses
are not residential and industrial impacts should be minor and can be
easily regulated through the site plan review process.
D. Annexation Policies
D-1
Annexation policies are extremely important for the City.
While it is important that enough land is available for the
necessary development anticipated in the City of Woodburn,
it is also essential to prevent too much land being included in
the city limits as this leads to inefficient, sprawling
development. Because of the need to plan for public
improvements, the City should insure that there is a five year
supply of vacant land within the City. Services should be
provided to that land during that five year period.
ANNEX 98-04,ZMA 98-05, MP 98-09 Page 4
lIB
STAFF COMMENT: The Urban Growth Boundary was adopted in
1980. This boundary designates areas outside Woodburn's City
Limits that could be annexed to accommodate growth to the year
2000. The annexation of this land is to accommodate the growth
demands of the City in a timely manner. The subject property is part
of an enclave within the city limits and is contiguous to the current
city limits line. The applicant states that the "proposed
development conforms with this annexation policy since it is a
logical extension of existing industrial and public use areas and can
connect with existing services adjacent to this site."
H. Public Services Goals and Policies
H-2.
The level of key facilities that can be provided should be
considered as a principal factor in planning for various
densities and types of urban land uses.
STAFF COMMENT: No development is planned at this time. It will

EXHIBIT "A"
FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS
BACKGROUND FINDINGS
FINDING: The purpose of the application is to change the land designation for the
subject property to bring it into compliance with the comprehensive plan which
requires that the lot be partitioned to correct a potential split zoning situation and
allow the lot to the south to be sold.
ANNEXATION
FINDING: The proposal is to annex 5.19 acres of territory to the City of
Woodburn. The subject property is Tax Lot 600, Marion County Assessor's Map
5S, 1W, Section BBC. It abuts the existing city limits on the north, west and east
boundaries. See map and legal description included on pages 4 and 5.
FINDING: The applicant filed an annexation petition and consent representing all
owners. The petition complies with the consent required under ORS Chapter 222,
Annexation.
STATEWIDE GOALS
FINDING: The City of Woodburn has established a land use notification and
hearings procedures to assure access by citizens.
FINDING: This Goal requires that the City coordinate the annexation application
with affected governmental units during amendments to its plan. To the extent
that this annexation request constitutes an amendment to the City's
Comprehensive Plan, the City will make this land use decision by coordinating with
Marion County, the Oregon Department of Transportation, and the Department
Land Conservation and Development, as well as other affected governmental
entities.

FINDING: No other natural resource issues are apparent for the subject property.
FINDING: There are no documented hazards associated with the subject
property. The subject property is not within the lO0-year flood plain according to
the maps prepared by FEMA.
FINDING: The subject property has not been identified by the City as a potential
park site for any type of recreational facility..
FINDING: This Goal is implemented by the Transportation Planning Rule. The City
of Woodburn has implemented the Transportation Goal and the Transportation Plan
Rule through the adoption of an acknowledged Transportation System Plan (TSP)
in 1996 (Ordinance 2170). That plan accounts for the development of all the land
within the Urban Growth Boundary as depicted by the Woodburn Comprehensive
Plan.
The TSP fulfills the Transportation Goal through facility plans for streets, bicycles,
pedestrians, and transit; implementation priorities and a financing program. The
City has established a transportation framework that reflects the annexation and
urbanization of the subject property.
FINDING: The proposal does not require any changes in the standards that
implement the functional classification of streets.
WOODBURN COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
FINDING: The proposed annexation is consistent with the Woodburn
Comprehensive Plan in that it is a proposal to permit the urbanization of the
subject property, subject to a concurrent Comprehensive Plan map amendment.
There are no County regulations that preclude the proposed annexation.
FINDING: The proposed annexation is found to be consistent with the applicable
portions of the Woodburn Comprehensive Plan. The proposal is consistent with
the Marion County Comprehensive Plan in that the County Plan establishes the
Urban Growth Boundary as the area specifically set aside for urbanization after
annexation to the City.

partitioned to the south of Mt. Hood Avenue.

comply with the City of Woodbum's commercial driveway standard. Access permit
modification will be required and shall be obtained from ODOT.
The City has no Storm sewer facility adjacent to this development. The applicants is

however recommend this be modified.

SUB3ECT: Site Plan Review- Stein Oil Company
Thank you for notifying the Oregon Department of Transportation
(ODOT) of the land use action identified above. The purpose of this
letter is to inform you that ODOT has concerns about this proposed
project and its potential impacts to area transportation facilities.
The proposed project is the construction of a new retail gas station
on Highway 214 near its intersection with Highway 99E. The
proposed gas station is adjacent to the existing Oil Can Henry's and
would share the access to Highway 214 currently in place for that
use. The applicant has proposed modifications to the access
necessary to accommodate both uses. The proposed modifications
are generally acceptable, but will require further detailed review prior
to installation. Therefore, ODOT requests that the a condition be
applied to the site plan requiring that the applicant apply for and
obtain a new or amended approach road permit from ODOT prior to
the issuance of a certificate of use and occupancy (or the City's
equivalent) for the project. The City or applicant may contact Rich
Krog, District 3 Permit Specialist at 986-5776, regarding the process
for obtaining the permit.
14A
This letter should be included in the record as ODOT testimony.
ODOT should be considered a party to the hearing and be entitled to
notices of future hearings, or hearing continuances or extensions.
Please provide me with a copy of the city's decision, including
findings and conclusions.

You have requested that th.is office provide information concerning the group home
planned for Woodburn by the Office of Developmental Disability Services. While I cannot
legally give personal information concerning the individuals who are moving there, or their
specific disabilities, I cm~ give you some general inforrnation concerning the project.
The home is planned for four women with developmental disabilities who are now
residents of Fairview Training Center. The most common developmental disability is
mental retardation, though they may have cerebral palsy, epilepsy, or other physical
disabilities requiring support to live successfxdly in the community. This will be the
permanent home for these persons, and they expect to live there indefinitely. Very little
turnover is likely to occur in this pro,re'am.
The residents will receive 24 hour residential support from Mt. Angel Training Center, a
private non-profit agency with a long h/story of providing quality services to persons with
disabilities. They will continue that tradition here. Their staffis anxious to develop
positive relationships in the community, and be good neighbors. Mt. Angel will provide
phone numbers of the house manager and prog-rmn director to the neighbors in order to
promptly address an), problems that may arise. The home will be licensed by the Office of
Developmental Disability Services according to rules for progra, ms that provide 24 hour
residential support, All the residents will have jobs in the Woodburn area, and I'm sure
contribute to the quality of life in your city.
You related concerns about neighborhood safety in the meeting with Gerald Stolp and
Roy Olson. These four indMduals present no threat to community safety. They do not
have criminal records, are not sex offenders, and are not temporary or "transient"
occupants of the home. They and their families hope that this wilI be their permanent
home, and that they will many friends in the community. Their needs are not unlike other
persons with disabilities who already live in the Woodburn area.
I hope this infonna.tion is useful in your attempts to address some evident
misunderstandings about tlzis home. Representatives of this office are available to meet
with neighbors on request. You may contact Gerald Stolp (503-945-9785) or Marylee
Fay (503-945-9787) if you have further questions.
