0118 PUBLIC ~RARING - OLCC LICENSE APPLICATION FOR SALVADOR'S
BAKERY ~3, 320 N. PACIFIC HIGh,WAY.
Mayor Kirksey declared the public hearing open at 7:19 p.m..
Administrator Childs read into the record a letter received
from Attorney Timothy O'Neill, representing Mr. Larios, which
included a letter of explanation from Mr. Larios regarding the
incidents outlined in the staff report.
The business establishment is located at 320 N. Pacific Hwy.,
formerly known as Hi-Way 99 Market and prior to that Linds
Market, and the new owner is requesting a change of ownership
Package Store liquor license.
Chief Wright reviewed the staff report providing information
on inconsistencies found during the background investigation
between Mr. Larios's original 1992 liquor license application
and his current application. The report summarized specific
incidents in which Mr. Larios was unwilling to cooperate with
the Police Department after he had called the police for
assistance. Additionally, Mr. Larios had failed to disclose
criminal arrests and violations on the liquor license
individual history application. It was also noted that Mr.
Larios had an outstanding warrant in Toppenish, WA for
Statutory Rape, however, there is no disposition on this case
at this time. Based on information obtained during the
investigation process, Chief Wright recommended the denial of
the liquor license change of ownership application.
Timothy O'Neill, attorney representing Mr. Larios, spoke on
behalf of the applicant and stated that Mr. Larios has made
mistakes but feels that a more thorough investigation needs to
be completed by the Council before a decision is rendered. In
his opinion, there are only 2 of 9 reasons that might be
considered as justifiable reasons to refuse the license, that
being 1) the applicant was convicted of a felony, and 2) the
applicant provided false or misleading information. In regard
to the first reason (convicted of a felony), Attorney O'Neill
stated that Mr. Larios has only been charged with a felony
with a hearing pending, and, in his discussions with the
victim, he feels that she does not want the authorities in
Washington to pursue the charges. He stated that Mr. Larios
has had no drug or alcohol related charges. When he needs
assistance from the Police Department, he does call them to
his place of business but feels that the Police delay their
response to his business and he gets frustrated with the
Department. In regards to the second reason (providing
material false and misleading information), he stated that Mr.
Larios does not have a clear understanding of the English
language. His original application was completed in 1992 at
which time he was assisted by Attorney JoAnn Beck. It was
noted that he has only a 3rd grade education and, in 1992, he
did not read English and was illiterate at the time of
Page 2 - Council Meeting Minutes, June 24, 1996
COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES

READING
completing his application. In 1996, he had a better
understanding of English and he completed the application
himself and does not feel that he left out the information in
the original application intentionally. He stated that it is
well-known that Mr. Larios runs a clean business and is a very
hard worker but a communication problem does exist between
himself and the Police Department. He also indicated that it
is his understanding that the Police Department tends to treat
Hispanic businesses and/or individuals differently from
caucasians. He urged the Council to recommend to OLCC the
approval of the package store license.
1516 Attorney JoAnn Beck stated that she has represented Mr. Larios
in his business practice and feels that his lack of
understanding of English was the main contributing factor in
not fully completing the 1992 license application. She had
assisted him in completing the 1992 application and feels that
he was not trying to be misleading when he did not fully
complete some of the questions. He has been a US citizen
since 1991 and has worked regularly for many years in not only
the bakery business but in any other work necessary to insure
the welfare of his family. In more recent years, he has
gained a greater knowledge of the English language and he
strives to complete more of the forms himself. He sets
specific goals and is always in a hurry to get there without
taking the time to make sure the information is accurate. She
stated that she had represented him on the Recklessing
Endangering charge and now wishes that he would have gone to
trial on the charge rather than pleading guilty since he
didn't want to take the time to go to court. In her opinion,
his businesses are an asSet to the community and the license
should be approved.
1925 Salvador Larios, applicant, stated that he feels he has a
problem with the Police Chief and briefly reviewed his version
of the office visit with the Chief in June 1995. In his
opinion, the Police is purposely not responding to his calls
for service in a timely manner and he feels that the Chief is
upset with him since he had contacted an OLCC investigator
directly regarding an incident rather than contacting him.
2025 Gordon Stalhberg, former owner of Tia Maria in Gervais, stated
that Mr. Larios had worked for him from 1987 to 1991 and he
had a good relationship with him. Mr. Larios eventually
purchased the business from him. While an employee, Mr.
Larios was a very ambitious and responsible individual. He
has loaned him money in the past on a handshake and he has
always repaid on time. He highly recommended approval of the
liquor license application.

COUNCIL M]BETING MINUTES
June 24, 1996
Marie Stalhberg stated that Mr. Larios originally came to work
for them as a baker. He is a hard worker and is very
concerned for his businesses. Additionally, he is
conscientious and responsible and provides not only wages but
housing for his employees.
Helmet Bubetz, 185 S. Settlemier, stated that he has enjoyed
doing business with Mr. Larios over the last 4 years and feels
that he is an asset to the community.
Salvador Mensola stated that he has known Mr. Larios for about
one year and, during that time, Mr. Larios has become a role
model to him. Mr. Larios is a good businessman who encourages
his employees to work with him rather than for him and he
provides employment for a lot of people. He also urged the
Council to recommend approval of the liquor license
application.
Chief Wright stated that he does not feel that he needs to
defend the Police Department. An allegation of a problem has
been made but feels that the record stands on its own. Since
1988, 30% of the officers are bi-lingual and the Department
strives to more sensitive to the situation not only from the
direction of the Council and community but their own
professional desire to be responsive to the needs of the
citizens. He does not believe there is a communication
problem with the Hispanic community but there may be a
communication problem between Mr. Larios and the Police
Department. He also reiterated his version of the day Mr.
Larios visited his office in June 1995. He reminded the
Council and the applicant that the City, by law, has
concurrent jurisdiction with OLCC over liquor laws in Oregon.
Brief discussion was held regarding Oregon Administrative Rule
language on the issue of providing a compliance plan so that a
favorable recommendation could be forwarded to OLCC.
Councilor Figley suggested that a recommendation to approve
the license be given if a compliance plan was agreed to that
would address the communication problem. It was also
suggested that a Councilor be present during the discussion of
a compliance plan with the applicant.
Mayor Kirksey expressed her concern in that a communication
problem exists but she did not hear of the applicant's
willingness to communicate with the Police Department to
improve the relationship between the two parties.
Chief Wright stated that he could only report according to the
incidents occurred the actions of the Police Department and
report those actions by victims, witnesses, and/or suspects.

Of the total incidents reported, only three are of concern and
those incidents tend to show a pattern of behavior.
Mayor Kirksey declared the public hearing closed at 8:28 p.m..
Councilor Jennings did not dispute Mr. Larios's honesty but is
concerned with the communication problem between him and the
Police Department. In his opinion, he feels that the barrier
can be overcomed and does not want this situation to become a
racial issue.
Tape 2
Councilor Pugh expressed his agreement with a compliance plan
that would address the issue of communications.
Councilor Figley stated that Mr. Larios's downtown businesses
are assets to the community and feels that the Hwy. 99E
business will also do well in the community. She stated that
she is in favor of the application with a compliance plan on
the communication issue which would be monitored by the
Council.
Councilors Hagenauer and Chadwick expressed comments similar
to those expressed by the other Councilors.
Mayor Kirksey stated that she feels that there has been no
consistency in the statements made by Mr. Larios and, if a
license is granted, the Council needs to be sure that there is
a compliance plan in place in which Mr. Larios must comply
with. Additionally, she suggested that the compliance plan be
reviewed after 6 months.
0148 JENNINGS/FIGLEY... request for transfer of package license
Salvador's Bakery #3 be approved providing there is a
compliance plan.
Discussion was held regarding the motion and the unspecified
time frame in which a compliance plan can be formulated and
agreed upon.

COUNCIL BILL 1720 - ORDINANCE ~LATING TO GRAFFITI NUISANCE
PROPERTY.
Council Bill 1720 was introduced by Councilor Hagenauer. The
first reading of the bill was read by Recorder Tennant in full
and the second reading was read by title only.
Councilor Pugh reiterated his objection to requiring the
victims to pay for the clean-up of graffiti.
Councilor Figley expressed her opinion that 95% of the
property owners do take care of graffiti removal immediately
and this proposed ordinance would require those property
owners who do not clean-up the graffiti to do so within a
specified period of time.
Councilor Jennings reminded the public that free paint is
available to property owners at the Fire Department and a
group of individuals has also offered their assistance to do
the repainting in those cases where help is necessary to get
the job done.
Mayor Kirksey stated that the penalty provision in the
ordinance will insure that all property owners are held to the
same standard in removing graffiti.
The roll call vote was 4-1 with Councilor Pugh voting nay.
This bill will be brought back before the Council on July 8,
1996 since it did not receive unanimous approval on the first
date it was introduced.
Administrator Childs stated that graffiti vandalism occurred
at one of the City's water well sites over the weekend and the
staff will be removing the graffiti immediately.
Councilor Pugh stated that he would like to see an ordinance
passed that would prohibit stores from selling spray paint to
individuals under the age of 18. He cited the program in
place at GWI Hardware as a model to what other businesses
could do within the City.
PUGH/FIGLEY... staff look into the writing of an ordinance
that would prohibit the selling of aerosol paint to anyone
under the age of 18.
As part of the discussion on this issue, Attorney Shields
stated that a legal evaluation would be necessary since
voluntary compliance is very different from mandatory
compliance.
After some further discussion on the issue, the motion and
second were withdrawn.
PUGH/FIGLEY .... City Attorney look into the possibility of
enacting that type of ordinance within the City. The motion
passed unanimously.

Services and the continuation of our property insurance

Capital Improvements
Chairman Frank Anderson opened the discussion on the topic of Capital
Improvements. Director Holly presented a rating scale in which to rate Capital
Projects. Director Holly pointed out that just because a project was rated as a top
priority did not assure the project would be funded first. Director Holly expressed
that rating a project high assures the Board, staff and City Council that the project
was important to the Department and Board and that the project would be funded
as resources become available. The Board proceeded to discuss at length the
various projects and assign them a priority rating as they went down the list. The
following rating was decided upon: The highest rated Capital Projects are rated in
the 1 category and the lowest priority 4.
Projects receiving a highest rating of Number I were: Front Street Park
Basketball Court, Drainage Tiling for Legion Field, Basketball Court for Legion
Park, Sand Volleyball Court for Legion Park, Multi-Play Area for Legion Park,

Public Works Program Manager ~
Special Public Works Fund Program Public Hearing
July 2, 1996
RECOMMENDATION:
After closing the public hearing authorize, by motion, that the city make application
to the Special Public Works Fund Program for a combination grant/loan for public
infrastructure improvements relating to an extension of Woodland Avenue and for the
mayor to sign said application.
BACKGROUND:
This public hearing is to discuss the city's intent to apply for combination loan/grant
funds from the Special Public Works Fund (SPWF) Program administered by the
Oregon Economic Development Department Community Development Programs
Section. The hearing will provide an opportunity for the public to comment on the
city's intent to apply and the project for which application is being made.
The SPWF program provides financing to local governments to construct, improve and
repair public infrastructure in order to support local economic development and create
new jobs, especially family wage jobs, locally. There must be a high probability that
family wage jobs will be created or retained within the boundary to be served by the
proposed infrastructure project or that industrial development of the properties served
by the proposed infrastructure project will occur.
The city is proposing to apply for $900,000 to construct a westerly extension of
Woodland Avenue south of State Highway 219. The street extension work also
includes sanitary sewer, storm sewer and water line extensions. The application to
be made would be for a $450,000 loan and $450,000 grant. The project would be
eligible for the loan/grant program based upon the jobs that will be created by virtue
of Waremart's development of its corporate distribution center south of the proposed
street extension.
Repayment of the loan portion of the OEDD package will be shared equally by
Waremart and the City of Woodburn. Staff believes City participation in this project
8A
City Council through City Administrator
July 2, 1996
page 2
is justified due to the unusual depth of the sanitary sewer line which will be included
as part of the project. The line will extend the existing sewer main, built in
conjunction with the HWI development, served by the City's I-5 pump station. This
will allow for continued extension of this sewer line to eventually loop into the West
Woodburn residential area, thus reducing the possibility of any potential environmental
contamination due to spills into Senecal Creek from existing lift pump failure. This is
environmentally sound planning that may also afford some capacity for future growth
as well. Construction of the street portion of the Woodland extension also helps the
City, as the SW industrial area develops fully, to preserve options in regard to future
I-5 interchange development or expansion.
The City's share of debt service on the loan portion of the OEDD package is estimated
at approximately $22,000 per year. Staff recommends that scheduled repayment be
made through some combination of State Revenue Sharing funds and Transient
Lodging (Hotel/Motel) tax proceeds. Precedent for use of State Revenue Sharing
funds for this type of program has already been established in connection with the
repayment of a similar state loan connected with the HWi development in 1991.
The Woodburn Area Chamber of Commerce recently pointed out to the Council that
business promotion is a logical and appropriate use of Hotel/Motel Tax proceeds.
there is perhaps no better method of business recruitment than to use some of these
funds in assisting a regional company, such as Waremart, to locate in the community
with an environmentally compatible development, creating new jobs, strengthening
the business community and adding significantly to the City's tax base. Final details
of a loan repayment package will be worked out through the budgetary process, with
the initial payment likely due in Fiscal Year 1997-98.
Staff recommends approval of the SPWF application and authorizing the mayor to sign
the application.

Audit Contract for 1995-96
Date: June 24, 1996
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the Council approve the attachelresolution
autho~g the Mayor and the City Administrator to sign the attached contracts for the services
of Harris and Eide for the audit of fiscal year 1995-96.
BACKGROUND: For professional services such as insurance, banking, or auditing the City
should evaluate the market every three to five years. To stay with a finn longer than five years
without a competitive review may result in higher than market fees, less than full service, or a
relationship that simply grows too cozy. To change firms more olden than every three years does
not allow a firm to build on its early experience to become more effective and/or efficient in how
it serves the City's needs.
The City has used the services of Harris & Eide for its annual audit for over ten years. Ideally a
request for proposal would have been issued for audit work for the three year period beginning
with 1995-96. However, this came up at the same time staff'was administering fl~e request for
proposal for banking services. This was the first time a bank had been selected using a competi-
tive process. It was absolutely imperative that that process be completed by the end of the fiscal
year. That left too little time to successfully administer a second RFP.
Requesting audit proposals will occur a year from now. In the mean time this one year contract
will fulfill the need for the annual audit and preparation of the financial statements for 1995-96.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: The fee proposed by Harris and Eide is the same as last year,
$21,750. This has been budgeted in 1996-97.

Police Department Auto Leasing Contract
It was noted during the budget hearings for fy 96/97 that the police department fleet was
becoming high maintenance and high mileage. That the budget only allowed for limited
replacement of thc marked fleet and did not allow for unmarked vehicles. *see attached
summary of police vehicle maintenance cost for fy 95-96.
In completing research on how the police department could overcome the problem of high
mileage and high mainttmance costa it was found that the State of Oregon provides safe and
economical transportation through the Slate of Oregon Motor Pool. The State of Oregon
provides a lease arrangement to include all expenses including cost of the vehicle, fuel,
maintenance and administration. The rates are $210 or $240 per month and a mileage fee of
$0.10 - $0.11 per mile. Rates are baaed upon 1,000 miles pex month per unit. These rates
compare very favorably in that commercial leasing rates at local dealers are $279 per month.
The leasee is responsible for gas, tires incidental maintenance i.e. oil changes.
The l~s!ng of two sedan vehicles has been budgeted and approved with the adoption of the
police fy 96-97 budget. With thc leasing of two vchilcs thc police dcparUnent will be
reducing thc fleet by two units and substituting leased vehicles.
recommendation:
Thc City Council approve thc contract with thc Slate of Oregon
Motor Pool for the lease of two sedan vehicles.

that area.
As you arc aware, we have previously requested and received permission for similar activities, all
of which were carried off without incident and with a minimum of inconvenience to our neighbors

Please don't hesitate to contact me if you need any further information in order to act on our
request.

Community Development Director
Periodic Review
DATE:
July 1, 1996
This memo is to inform the council that the city is required by the
Department of Land Conservation and Development to begin periodic
review of the comprehensive plan. State law (ORS 197.628- 197.646)
requires local comprehensive plans to be reviewed and updated every
four to ten years. The purpose of periodic review is to ensure that local
comprehensive plans and land use regulations are continuing to comply
with the Statewide Planning Goals and that state laws and rules are
applied through the comprehensive plan. The Woodburn Comprehensive
Plan was acknowledged to meet the Statewide Planning Goals in 198t.
The last periodic review was completed in t989.
The periodic review includes several steps. First, local governments
evaluate their comprehensive plans and land use regulations to determine
what, if any, changes are needed. Second, develop a work program with
scheduled work tasks to be followed in making the necessary changes.
Third, carry out the work program.
The evaluation will take approximately four (4) months and the work
program will take approximately four (4) months. These two items will be
accomplished during the t996 fiscal year. The specific work programs will
be carried out during the t997/1998 fiscal year.

Nevin Holly, Director Recreation and Parks
Subject: Passive Use Designation For Senior Estates Park
Date: July 2, 1996
At the regularly scheduled Recreation and Park Board meeting on June 25, 1996 the
Board considered a request by Senior Estates Executive Director, Dan Schrader to
declare Senior Estates Park a "passive use park". The concerns expressed by Mr.
Schrader on behalf of Senior Estates involve a possible shift in use patterns of this park.
These concerns and further considerations are presented in more detail in the
accompanying Staff Report presented to the Recreation and Parks Board.
In that the usage pattern of Senior Estates Park is passive now, and in that the
Recreation and Parks Department has no intention of shifting Senior Estates Park to a
more active theme park, I have recommended to the Recreation and Parks Board to
designate Senior Estates Park as a passive use park. The designation does not restdct
passive activities which are the pdmary uses of the park at this time. The Recreation and
Park Board voted unanimously to declare Senior Estates Park, Al Cowan Park and
Railroad Park as passive use parks. The designations will not attempt to illustrate all
activities which can be construed as passive, however we will restrict activities that
disrupt the passive theme.
The Park areas will use signage designated "Passive Use Park". Restricted activities
identified and signed will be baseball, softball, soccer and football. If City Council has no
problem with these designations the Department will proceed.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

STAFF REPORT
TO:
Woodburn Recreation and Parks Board
FROM:
Nevin Holly, Director Recreation and Parks
SUBJECT: Passive Use Areas On Public Parks
DATE:
June 25,1996
Tonight we are discussing the concept of designating public park areas as passive use
areas. Specifically, we have been requested by representatives of Senior Estates to
designate Senior Estates Park as a passive use area. Passive use can include whatever
activities we stipulate is allowable within the confines of Senior Estates Park, or for that
matter any of our public parks. Citizens who visit our parks are allowed to participate in
any activity as long as the activity does not violate public laws or the existing restrictions
imposed by our local Parks Ordinance. While it is preferable to allow our citizens as much
freedom in our City parks as is reasonably accommodating, it also may be preferable to
designate specific use which will better suit the needs of each parks' user. This is
particularly true in terms of neighborhood parks where the primary users of that park are
the citizens of that neighborhood, and where the citizens of that neighborhood provide
specific input into what they "the local users", desire.
The designation of a park or community fadlity as a specific use area is common place on
public properties. There are many State and local parks which throughout the country
have specific designations and corresponding rules and regulations of what is allowable
and what is not. The designations of a park as a passive use area for example, is quite
a common designation in many public parks. Specific uses are also commonly made for
specialty parks. Examples of these parks are public areas with a designated theme, for
example; a skateboard park, a water park or a park which is designed for the physically
challenged. Other recreational areas which public entity may operate which restrict or
focus activities are ballfield complexes. Therefore, should we chose to designate Senior
Estates Park as a passive area we would be setting no precedence.
What constitutes passive use at Senior Estates Park is our focus. If we decide to
designate Senior Estates Park as a passive use area we need to determine what is
allowable activity on this site. Senior Estates Park even without our formally acting, is
currently being utilized as a passive use area. The Park is visited almost entirely by
residents of Senior Estates and their guests. Primary uses are walking, walking of dogs,
horseshoe playing and picnicking. With the rapid growth, which as been realized within
the past 5 years, the residents of Senior Estates are concerned that the nature of usage
of this Park may change. While we cannot restdct access to any public park, we can
institute polities and rules which restrict activities. Senior Estates Park can be identified
as a passive use park by restricting the participation of active sports on the park area.
15D
These restrictions would include: baseball, softball, football and soccer. These are
probably reasonable restrictions on this park anyway because of the close proximity of
homes to the park. I do believe that horseshoes and frisbees are passive enough activities
that they should be allowable activities.
The Recreation and Parks Board must decide whether this request to designate this park
.as a passive use area best serves the citizens, and then designate what activities will be
restricted. I do not believe we can be so inclusive as to determine every activity which we
construe as passive, however, we can designate the park as a passive use area and
restrict specific activities which we believe violate that intent.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
The Woodburn Recreation and Parks Department has no intention of ever converting
Senior Estates Park to any athletic theme park. I believe it best serves the residents of
Senior Estates es it is currently being used. Therefore, to respond to the concerns of the
citizens of Senior Estates, I recommend Senior Estates Park be defined as a passive use
park. Passive use connotations, as I see them, refer to uses which reflect less physical
or athletic activity such as picnics, walldng, sitting or playing horseshoes. The restrictions
I recommend you impose with the passive use designation include activities which would
bring loud and obtrusive behavior to the park. These restrictions include: football,
baseball, soccer, volleyball and softball. I recommend that other logical areas be
designated passive use areas at this time. These areas include;~ AI Cowan Park and
Railroad Park.
Your recommendations will be forwarded to City Council for concurrence and proper
signage will be placed at designated sites.
