conditions, however, as suggested by Councilor Mitchell, staff
is proposing another condition that would require the video
cameras to be 100% operational and, if not, no alcohol can be
served at the establishment until the cameras are fully
operational. since this is a change of ownership application,
incidents over the past 12 months such as illegal activities,
disturbances, calls for service, and life threatening
incidents are considered for the purpose of determining a
recommendation of approval or denial of the license. Playa de
Oro Restaurant, located at 553 N. Front st., has been under
the ownership of Mr. Rodrigu.ez since April 1994. There have
only been two calls for service since Mr. Rodriguez has taken
over the business. Prior to that time, the restaurant had on-
going problems relating to illegal drugs and various other
negative activities which had occurred in and or around the
premise. The Oregon Liquor Control commission (OLCC) had
previously denied Mr. ROdriguez a temporary license based on
the problems at the establishment in the past. Staff's
recommendation is to deny the Class A liquor license change of
ownership application, however, if the Council were to endorse
the application, they requested that the 21 special conditions
be attached to the license.
0559 Carol Bartlett, attorney representing Mr. Rodriguez, stated
that the past history brought out in the staff report involve
2 different owners of the restaurant that have nothing to do
with the current owner. They have recently met with Chief
Wright and now have a better understanding of what problems
the Police Department has had in the past at the
establishment. She stated that Mr. Rodriguez is willing to
accept the 21 conditions and she urged the Council to endorse
the application with the conditions. OLCC has indicated that
they may be willing to issue a temporary license until the
formal Commission hearing is held in late November or December
if the Council endorses the application with the 21
conditions. If the Commission endorses the license, the
Council will have another opportunity in March 1995 to review
the establishment's operation during the annual license
renewal process.
Salvadore Rodriguez, applicant, stated that he is aware of the
prior history at the establishment, however, he would like to
have the same opportunity to sell alcohol with meals similar
to other businesses within the city. He plans to remodel the
business and is trying to make it a cleaner and more enjoyable
environment. He expressed his willingness to work with the
city and to take whatever measures are necessary to secure a
liquor license.
Councilor Figley questioned if Mr. ROdriguez was willing to
only sell alcohol with meals rather than having a lounge
atmosphere.
Attorney Bartlett stated that he is always willing to sell

food items and/or make hors d'oeuvres available for those
consuming alcoholic beverages. She stated that Mr. ROdriquez
is committed to making this a respectable establishment.
Mayor Kelley suggested a 30 or 60 day trial period.
Attorney Bartlett stated that it could be another condition
with an outlined procedure to follow, however, the renewal
period is next spring and the Council has an opportunity at
that time to re-evaluate the license.
Gib Ramage, 1030 Astor Way, submitted a petition signed by 17
individuals who are urging the Council to endorse the
application. He read the petition which included information
as to the owners efforts to clean-up the restaurant and make
it a family style restaurant.
Dave Downs, Hit Parade Music Co., stated that his business is
located near Playa de Oro Restaurant. He expressed his
opinion that business owners need to take advantage of all
avenues that are available to them in order to make a viable
living. In his opinion, the license endorsement would benefit
both the owner and the City.
Chief Wright expressed his opinion that the department's
recommendation does carry a precedent. He still stands by the
recommendation to deny the license based on past history,
however, if it is endorsed, he recommended that the conditions
be attached. The conditions were drafted by his staff without
the input of Mr. ROdriquez. He briefly reviewed the different
types of OLCC licenses and the Commission's rules relating to
conditions.
Attorney Bartlett reiterated that OLCC has indicated that they
would reconsider the temporary license with conditions before
it goes to the Commission for a formal hearing. She urged the
Council to give Mr. ROdriquez a chance to improve the
financial condition of his business and an opportunity to work
towards a change in clientele who patronize the business.
Fraul Rodriquez, 838 Meadowvale Lane, stated that he has a
Business Degree and he his assisting his brother in trying to
make this a viable business. He urged Council endorsement of
the liquor license.
In regards to the number of conditions proposed by staff,
Chief Wright stated that this is the most stringent list
recommended by staff due to the problems experienced in the
past.
Mayor Kelley closed the public hearing at 8:22 p.m..
Each of the Councilors expressed their views and concerns on
this issue. In summary, they were willing to give the new
owner an opportunity to have the Class A license but strongly
encouraged the serving of alcohol only during meal hours.
Tape 2 JENNINGS/SIFUENTEZ.... make an affirmative endorsement to OLCC
with the additional 21 licensing conditions recommended by

HABITAT FOR HUMANITY -REOUEST FOR WAIVER OF DEVELOPMENT FEES.
Ismael Villastrigo, 418 Bradley, spoke on behalf of the local
Habitat for Humanity organization and requested a reduction
and/or waiver in development fees. He stated that the
organization has built two homes in Woodburn in the past and
is proposing a third home at 475 S. Front street. Volunteer
time and donations help to keep the actual cost of the home at
an affordable level to families who could not otherwise
purchase a home. The new homeowner is responsible for all
taxes on the property which is included in their monthly
payment. In the past, the city had waived all but $1,800 in
fees. The fees have now increased to approximately $6,000.

fees should be paid from other city funds. .

0571 CONNECTION OP SANXTARY SEWER SERVICE TO PROPERTY OUTSXDE OP
THE CITY LIMITS.
Councilor Jennings questioned why the property is not being
annexed at this time.
Director Tiwari stated that the properties involved (2560 &
2580 N. Boones Ferry Rd.) are adjacent to Tukwila Subdivision
and there is concern that the septic system may be disrupted
or altered from the development, therefore, creating a failure
and a health hazard. If the connection is allowed, the
property owner would pay the required connection fees and
would be charged 1.5 times the established service rate.
Councilor Jennings stated that he would not be voting on this
issue due to a potential moral conflict since he has been

situations similar to this case.

evangelistic group shares there message to interested
individuals by playing music, passing out literature, and
providing a social atmosphere. There have been no complaints

fact sheet on the tax base issue as recommended. The motion
passed unanimous1y.
It was the consensus of the Council that Councilors not be
designated to assist the Administrator with this project.
1043 Rosemary Hammack, 1225 Hardcastle, expressed her frustrations
in the lack of city ordinances which would force owners of
rental property to be responsible property owners who would
evict tenants that are creating disturbances or problems in
the neighborhood. She cited a specific case in which gang-
related activities are taking place at a rental home located
on Park Avenue which is owned by an individual in Alaska and
drive-by shootings have occurred in the neighborhood as a
result of the gang activity. She expressed concern over the
safety of individuals, especially children; who live in the

(F) Water Test Results for Microbiological Contamination --
Public Works Manager Rohman stated that recent water sampling
on Wilson Street resulted in a positive test sample and
subsequent testing from connections from both upstream and
downstream had also tested positive. Since the testing is
done from outdoor hose connection points, sterilization is
more difficult and it is believed that this the reason for the
positive tests. By law, the City is required to notify the
pUblic of the test results through pUblication of a notice in
the local newspaper and by mail to the water customers. The
City is working with the state Health Department on this
issue. Water lines in the area have been flushed and
additional samples have been taken with results to be received
mid-week. It was noted that all samples taken did not contain
any fecal coliform or E. Coli bacteria.
Councilor Hagenauer stated that the barriers in front of the
Salud building are down and garbage is COllecting in front of
the building.
Director Goeckritz stated that he will contact Salud's
Director to have the area cleaned up and the barriers
replaced.

Staff read the Approval Criteria, the Raise it or Waive it Rule, the Right to Have
the Record Remain Open and the Right to a Continuance of a Hearing. The
zoning of the area is Interchange District and a service station (gas, oil,
lubricating, minor repair, general repair) is a outright permitted use. Staff
further stated that the automotive service center is similar to a service station
and the activities that take place although no gas will be sold. Although an
automotive service center is not identified as a specific land use in this Zoning
District, the proposed use will meet the intent and purpose of the zone.

Staff pointed out on the map where the property was located. The applicant
has submitted all the necessary information for staff to support a
recommendation for approval with certain conditions listed in the staff report.
Staff read a correction into the record. "If the Planning Commission does
approve this application, one recommendation of approval on page 10,
condition K, number 1, states that the applicant sign a nonremonstrative
consent form to pay the fair share of cost of Arney Road improvements." Staff
recommends that this statement be omitted. They will still be required to pay
their fair share cost of signalization of Arney Road where it interconnects with
Hwy 219 plus road frontage improvements.
Commissioner Pugh asked if the conditions regarding any change to Arney
Road were a commitment to the future improvements of Arney Rd. or only that
if that should occur that this would be a commitment.
Staff answered that if the improvements are realized, they will help pay for the
cost of the improvements.
Eldon Edwards, Architect, Wilsonville, stated that the property was located at
the interchange area. He stated that the building would be approximately
18,000 sq. ft. He stated that they will have a reciprocal agreement with the
RV Park for access to Highway 219 and the park to the north. He did have
concern about placement of a the 12" water and 10" sewer main the full length
of the property. He stated that they would like to flag this as something to
discuss in the future.
Staff stated that this could be discussed between the Public Works staff and
the developer.
Chairperson Warzynski asked if there was anyone in the audience who wished
to speak for this proposal. There were none. She then asked if there was
anyone who wished to speak against this project. There were none. She then
closed the public hearing.
Commissioner Pugh made the motion to approve this application based on the
standards, findings and conclusions as provided by staff.
Commissioner Bjelland seconded the motion.

5) DISCUSSION:
Site Plan Review 94-05 Patrick Industries
A request for amendment to a Planning Commission condition of approval.
Staff stated that the Commission established a condition when Fleetwood and
Patrick brought a proposal before the Commission. The condition was that a
cul-de-sac on the Fleetwood property be improved and an access point from
that cul-de-sac to Patrick Industries property be improved for the development
of this site. Patrick Industries has some concerns on being able to meet the
condition because Fleetwood is not proceeding simultaneously with their
construction along with Patrick Industries.
It was conveyed by staff to Patrick Industries that staff does not have the
authority to amend a condition, the Planning Commission is the only authority
to do that. Staff reminded the Commission that Patrick Industries was required
to secure a access point from Highway 99E and from National Way. The two
basic reasons were to allow for an alternative route for emergency access and
allow employee traffic an alternative route along with industrial truck traffic.
At the original hearing neither Patrick Industries or Fleetwood objected to this
condition. In fact, Fleetwood and Patrick Industries site plans showed that
Fleetwood was going to sell to Patrick Industries that property that adjoins
National Way.
Mr. Darwin Doss said Patrick Industries is ready to go ahead with construction.
But because the property is not under their control, the extension of National
Way, the cul-de-sac and the emergency exit from their property they cannot
proceed with that condition. He stated that they were asking for a continuance
of the condition which requires the road extension and cul-de-sac for three
years. Negotiations are still continuing between Fleetwood and Patrick
Industries on the property south of the site.
Chairperson Warzynski asked if the emergency exit through Familian is already
in place. Familian has agreed to let Patrick Industries have access through their
property as a emergency exit.
Mr. Doss stated that yes it was agreed with Familian only if this emergency exit
was required. He stated that in the past 5 months Patrick Industries has

Commissioner Pugh stated that he was concerned that Fleetwood was not here
at the meeting.
Mr. Doss stated that it was their understanding they were on different
construction time schedules. Fleetwood did not wish to complete their project
then have it sit empty until needed.
Staff discussed the purpose of extending National Way, and the cul-de-sac.
Staff stated that if the Commission wishes to approve the request, in regards
to temporary access, staff has no problem with that but would be concerned
with setting a precedent if a three to five year extension was approved. Staff
recommended that it be for one year with the possibility of an extension
beyond that time frame.
Commissioner Pugh suggested that the applicant bring back a letter from
Fleetwood and Familian Sierra Craft stating their intentions before the building
permit is issued.
Commissioner Kosikowski made the motion to approve the proposal with the
conditions that there is a one year time frame and if necessary come back and
ask for an extension. In addition, a letter from Fleetwood and Familian that
addresses the issue of the temporary access through Familian and Fleetwood
and their intentions about building.
Commissioner Pugh seconded the motion.
A vote was taken and the motion passed.
6) REPORT:
A. Partition #94-07
Staff stated that the applicant asked for administrative approval of a partition.
The property is located at 845 Lincoln Street. Staff gave approval and wished
acknowledgement from the Commission.
B. Zoning Ordinance Amendments Chapters 8 & 9
Staff stated that the changes are represented by a dash-line for things that
staff wished deleted, the additions are in italics, and staff comments have been
added to the end of the chapter.

Administrator's Note: The helpful city employee has been identified as Water
Department Technician Floyd Barth. I commend Mr. Barth for his diligence, which is
typical of the public spirit encouraged of all Woodburn employees. While people are
quick to point out any negatives, the extra effort of people such as Mrs. Wells to take
the time to write a positive comment is admirable and certainly appreciated.

Acceptance of Donated Flail Mower
DATE:
October 5, 1994
RECOMMENDATION:
Accept the donation of a 1968 Mott flail mower to the City Street department from
Casey Jones with an estimated value of $1,200.
BACKGROUND:
Mr. Casey Jones lives at 7390 South Drake Road in Mount Angel. He is a retired
equipment salesman and municipal employee who worked in the Willamette Valley for
many years. He would like to donate to the city a 1968 Mott self propelled flail
mower. This is a walk behind flail type mower with a 32 inch width of cut. It has
been very well maintained and the flails used are readily available.
The engine and gear box were stolen from the machine in 1991 and Mr. Jones spent
approximately $1200 to have the mower repaired. Mr. Jones used this cost when he
estimated the value of the mower.
The street department will use the mower for right of way maintenance. It will be
used in ares that tractor mounted equipment can't reach. It is in very good condition
and upkeep is expected to be minimal. Staff recommends that the donation be
accepted.

STOP sign request on Meadowvale Lane at the intersection of Hermanson
Street
THROUGH:
FROM:
SUBJECT:
DATE:
September 30, 1994
RECOMMEND A TION:
It is recommended that Council approve the installation of a STOP sign on Meadowvale Lane
at the southern intersection of Hermanson Street due to inadequate site distance at this
intersection.
BACKGROUND:
The Meadowpark Homeowner's Association has requested STOP signs in this subdivision for
safety reasons. With the addition of Carn Subdivision to the south of Meadowpark there is an
increase of traffic through this area.
Traffic counts were taken at both intersections of Meadowvale Lane with Hermanson. The
volume of traffic at either intersection is too low to warrant STOP signs. However, the sight
distance at the southern intersection is hindered by the curvature of Hermanson Street through
Meadowpark and into Carn Subdivision.
The Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices states that STOP signs can be warranted where
there is limited view. This intersection is hazardous because of the limited sight distance on
Hermanson.
Therefore, it is recommended that a STOP sign be installed at the southern intersection of
Meadowvale Lane with Hermanson Street because of the hazard created by limited sight
distance.

Alder Lane NO PARKING request
THROUGH:
FROM:
SUBJECT:
DATE:
September 30, 1994
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that Council approve the installation of NO PARKING signs on the west side
of Alder for the first 100 ft. from both the intersections of Steven St. and Linda St. as shown
on the attached map. This will allow access of emergency vehicles to the street and still allow
residents some on-street parking.
BACKGROUND:
The residents along Alder Lane requested NO PARKING along the street due to its narrow
width. Council approved the installation of signs along the east side of Alder in January 1994,
as was recommended by staff. Some residents felt both sides should be restricted because of the
need for emergency vehicles.
The Fire Department was consulted on this and they stated if the first 100 feet was restricted
parking on the west side from both the intersection of Linda and Steven Streets, they would be
able to access the street for emergency services.
Alder Lane is 21.75 ft wide and according to the Transportation and Traffic Engineering
Handbook, would be classified for no parking on one side of the street.
Therefore, since it is vital that emergency services be unhindered to access this area it is
recommended that NO PARKING signs be installed on the west side of Alder Lane 100 feet
from both the intersection of Linda St. and Steven St.

Approval of Merit Salary Increase (M. Wolf)
DATE:
October 6, 1994
RECOMMENDATION: That Council approve, pursuant to Sec. 3 of Resolution
#1081 (dated 9/9/91) a 3.3% merit salary increase for Marianne Wolf,
Communications Center Manager, retroactive to October 1, 1994.
BACKGROUND: Resolution #1063 established the 1991-92 Non-Union Employee
Compensation Plan, which included a range/step plan for Executive Management
employees. However, Resolution #1081 (Sec. 2) removed management employees
hired after September, 1991 from the existing range/step plan. Also, Sec. 3 of Res.
#1081 requires that the City Council give final approval to merit increases for
management employees.
A performance evaluation for Ms. Wolf has been recently completed,
demonstrating that overall job performance meets or exceeds minimum standards.
Ms. Wolf has been an asset to the City of Woodburn and is deserving of this merit
increase.

As you will recall, on March 14, 1994 the Council enacted a resolution
. declaring the above-referenced structure a dangerous building and granting the owner
(Salud Medical Clinic) until December 31, 1994 to either abate (demolish) the
structure or repair it to appropriate safety standards. Councilors noted that such a
timeline would better enable Salud to deal with "red tape" at the federal government
level.
Over the past several months the Community Development Director and myself
have written a series of letters to both Salud and Farmers Home Administration
(principal lienholder on the property) continuing to emphasize the approaching deadline
and the need for an action plan. As a result of this correspondence, a meeting was
held on September 23, 1994 with several Salud officials, a representative of FmHA,
the Community Development Director and the City Administrator.
The upshot of the September 23rd meeting was an action plan that has already
been put into motion by Salud. Essentially, they have listed the property with a real
estate broker for what they believe to be a competitive price, given the condition of
the structure. The broker's strategy is to first solicit prospective leasehold tenants for
the building. Then, with the potentially guaranteed income stream as an enticement,
the broker will look at prospective buyers who would be willing, based on the rental
income assurances, to make the necessary investment in rehabilitating the structure.
Salud's marketing approach has apparently been O.K.'d by both FmHA and the
U.S. Public Health Service (Salud's principal source of operating funds). The Salud
officials stated that two different county agencies, the Health Department and the
Sheriff's Department, have expressed interest the possibility of leasing space in the
building. City staff has no indication of how firm such offers/inquiries may be.
Salud's intent, as stated in the meeting, is to do the utmost possible to
facilitate the preservation of the building; a desire that has periodically been expressed
from the bench by individual city councilors. There is an obvious historic and
aesthetic value in preserving the building. Also, it is commonly agreed that demolition
of the building could pose additional difficulties in respect to the structural integrity
of adjoining buildings. However, the Salud officials noted that a $70,000 settlement
15A
Page 2 - Salud Building (10/4/94)
from FEMA will be available to finance the demolition of the old structure if that is the
ultimate outcome.
If the council's priority is, in fact, to repair and preserve the building rather than
to demolish it, serious consideration will need to be given to extending the December
31 st deadline to allow time for Salud to follow through with their action plan.
Occupancy of the building by county departments, or any other governmental or
nonprofit entity (including state offices as suggested recently), would require
appropriate planning, discussion and, ultimately, budgetary approvals.
The Salud officials believe a time extension will probably be necessary to
successfully complete the process described. In turn, they asked "What does the city
need from us to grant a time extension to make this plan work?" While that is
ultimately a policy determination by the council, staff's initial response was that, Sl1
minimum, Salud would have to present, prior to December 31, 1994, formal evidence
sufficient to demonstrate that the marketing plan is viable. This would realistically be
in the form of signed documents indicating the intent of prospective tenants to lease
space.
The preceding summarizes the direction that Salud is presently taking in regard
to the building. City staff has continually worked to "prod" Salud toward achieving
a resolution to this matter that will minimize any potential costs to the city and its
taxpayers. If the city council visualizes a different outcome, it needs to be clearly and
concisely conveyed to Salud.

Water Update on Total Coliform
TO:
SUBJECT:
DATE:
October 6, 1994
The city is still experiencing problems with total coliform results near the Wilson
Street sample point. The City has been in contact with the Health Division and they
have concurred with actions taken. Following is a summary of activity since the last
council meeting.
September 28: Results were received from three samples. Two were negative but
one positive sample from a house connection was recorded. Lines in the area were
flushed and additional samples were taken.
October 4: The sample point and both house connections again tested positive. Five
other locations in the city sampled in accordance with normal testing schedules were
negative. The decision was made to resample the locations without any further
action.
October 6: The sample point and both house connections again tested positive. In
consultation with health division it was decided to again flush the lines and resample
the sites. The results of these tests will be available at council meeting and an update
will be provided at that time.
The next step if positive samples do continue would be to chlorinate the water lines
in the vicinity. The results that will be available October 10th will dictate the city
response in consultation with State Health Division.
No action is required by city residents at this time and NO fecal coliform or E Coli
Coliform bacteria have been found in any of the samples.

Chris Childs, City Administrator ~
legal Synopsis: Compass Corp. vs. lake Oswego
TO:
SUBJ.:
DATE:
October 6, 1994
Attached for your review is an evaluation prepared by N. Robert Shields, our
City Attorney, regarding a land use case recently decided against the city of Lake
Oswego. Although directed to city staff, Mr. Shields' memo merits consideration by
both the city council and the planning commission.
The immediate issue concerns the "120 Day Rule". Because the city council
is an integral part of our land use process, applications that reach the council level are
subject to this rule. Particular thought should be given to the "120 Day Rule" in light
of several recent situations where land use issues have been remanded back to the
planning commission.
It would appear that violation of the "120 Day Rule", without an appropriate
waiver from the applicant, could result in 1) automatically required aooroval of the
application and 2) payment of applicant's related attorney fees by the city.
Please review Mr. Shields' memo carefully.

N. ROBERT SHIELDS. CITY ATTORNEY' \I (;;)
COMPASS CORPORATION V LAKE OSWEGO
COMPLIANCE WITH CITY "120 DAY RULE" STATUTE
TO:
SUBJECT:
DATE:
OCTOBER 4, 1994
In Comoass Corporation v. Citv of Lake Oswego. 319 OR 537 (1994), the
Oregon Supreme Court addressed the use of a Writ of Mandamus in a land use
context and substantially changed existing law in this area. While this may at first
seem rather remote and esoteric to you, I believe this legal interpretation could have
a significant impact on the city's everyday planning activities. Accordingly, the city
should take appropriate actions to comply with this judicial ruling.
THE "120 DAY RULE" STATUTE
ORS 227.178 is referred to by Oregon urban planners and land use lawyers as
the "120 day rule" and provides, in relevant part, as follows:
227.178. Final action on certain applications required within 120 days;
exceptions; mandamus authorized. (1) Except as provided in subsections (3)
and (4) of this section, the governing body of a city or its designate shall take
final action on an application for a permit, limited land use decision or zone
change, including resolution of all appeals under ORS 227.180, within 120
days after the application is deemed complete.
15E
PAGE 2 - MEMORANDUM OPINION NO. 94-05
* * *
(4) The 120-day period set in subsection (1) of this section may be
extended for a reasonable period of time at the request of the applicant
* * *
(6) Notwithstanding subsection (5) of this section, the 120-day period
set in subsection (1) of this section does not apply to an amendment to an
acknowledged comprehensive plan or land use regulation or adoption of a new
land use regulation that was forwarded to the director under ORS 197.610(1).
* * *
(7) If the governing body of the city or its designate does not take final
action on an application for a permit, limited land use decision or zone change
within 120 days after the application is deemed complete, the applicant may
apply in the circuit court of the county where the application was filed for a
writ of mandamus to compel the governing body or its designate to issue the
approval. The writ shall be issued unless the governing body shows that the
approval would violate a substantive provision of the city comprehensive plan
or land use regulations as defined in ORS 197.015. [1983 c.827 ~27; 1989
c.761 ~16; 1991 c.817 ~15]
FACTS OF THE LAKE OSWEGO APPLICATION.
On March 22, 1991, the applicant applied for a land use permit to partition
three patcels in the city of Lake Oswego. The city notified the applicant that the
application was complete on April 5, 1991. On June 3, 1991, the city's Development
Review Board conducted a public hearing on the application and on August 5, 1991,
the Board voted to deny the application. On October 27, 1991, the Board voted to
deny reconsideration of its decision and on October 22, 1991, the applicant filed an
appeal with the city council. Finally, on January 14, 1992, with the appeal pending
before the council, the applicant filed a legal action in the Clackamas County Circuit
Court seeking a Writ of Mandamus. In basic terms, a Writ of Mandamus is a legal
procedure where a private party can apply to a court for an order requiring a public
official to make a decision. In this case, the applicant petitioned the Circuit Court to
order the city to approve the application. The applicant's lawsuit was filed 285 days
after the city had determined the application was complete.
15E
PAGE 3 - MEMORANDUM OPINION NO. 94-05
CITY'S RESPONSE TO THE LAWSUIT.
After the lawsuit was filed, the Circuit Court set a show cause hearing for
February 12, 1992, on the question of why a Writ of Mandamus should not issue
against the city. On February 11, 1992, the city council met and denied the land use
application. The Lake Oswego City Attorney then argued at the February 12, 1992
court hearing that since the city had already made a decision on the application, the
Circuit Court was now without legal jurisdiction to hear the case.
CIRCUIT COURT RULING.
The Circuit Court rejected the city's argument and issued a Writ of Mandamus
requiring the city to approve the application. It held that under ORS 227.178 the
applicant, at this point, was not just entitled to "a decision" but to an aooroval of the
application. The Court also required that the applicant's attorney fees be paid by the
city.
COURT OF APPEALS
. The city immediately appealed the judgment to the Oregon Court of Appeals.
The Court of Appeals reversed the ruling of the Circuit Court, and relied on Ednev v.
Columbia Countv Board of Commissioners, an analogous case decided under ORS
215.428, the county "120 day rule" statute. The Court of Appeals stated:
At oral argument, plaintiff acknowledged that Edney is controlling, but
contended that it was wrongly decided. We recognized in Edney that there
was an inherent conflict between the mandamus statutes and the LUBA review
statutes, and that full literal effect cannot be given to both. We acknowledged
in that decision that there are persuasive arguments on both side of this issue.
However, it was our conclusion that the legislature intended that the LUBA
process, in which land use issues can be reviewed on their merits by the body
to whom the legislature has assigned that task, is preferred over compulsory
circuit court relief. We adhere to that view and to our decision in Edney.
121 Or App at 488.
SUPREME COURT RULING.
The applicant then petitioned the Oregon Supreme Court for review. The
Supreme Court not only agreed to hear the case, but stated in clear terms that it
agreed with the Circuit Court and reversed the Court of Appeals. The Court rejected
15E
PAGE 4 - MEMORANDUM OPINION NO. 94-05
the Court of Appeals rather fuzzy reasoning that the legislature had not intended to
give "literal effect" to the language of the 120 day statute and applied the actual
language of the statute. The Court suggested that, in many cases, judicial approval
of the application is the just consequence of the government's inaction. The Supreme
Court explained:
As the Court of Appeals noted in Edney v. Columbia County Board of
Commissioners, supra, 119 Or App at 10, the mandamus statute and the LUBA
statutes are silent about whether a city's belated decision to deny an
application affects the circuit court's mandamus jurisdiction. The Court of
Appeals concluded that such a decision by a city prevents the court from
issuing a writ, reasoning that there is no reason to force a city to make a
second decision. According to that court, once the city makes a decision, even
a belated one, the purpose of the mandamus statute has been satisfied, and
there is no need to resort to court.
That reasoning overlooks the applicant's statutory right, not merely to
an order that rules on the application, but to an order compelling an approval.
If a city could avoid the mandamus remedy by denying the application on the
eve of a court hearing, the incentive to make a timely decision within 120 days
would disappear. Properly viewed, the approval action that the court compels
through mandamus is not a second decision by the city; it is an action that the
law requires as a consequence of the city's violation of the 120-day deadline.
319 Or at 545.
As a final note, the Court left in place the portion of the Circuit Court's order requiring
the city to pay the applicant's attorney fees.
IMPLICATIONS OF THE DECISION.
In my opinion, this court decision is a tremendously significant legal ruling for
cities because it creates a "back door" process where an applicant may obtain a land
use approval by the government's failure to make a timely final decision. Likewise,
the legal ruling will adversely impact the city planning process unless extreme care is
taken by city staff to avoid the pitfalls it creates. In an effort to assist city staff and
avoid potential adverse impacts on the city, I have developed some guidelines to be
used when applying the 120 day statute. I will end this opinion by listing the
guidelines and suggesting that we meet at your earliest convenience to discuss their
implementation.
-
15E
PAGE 5 - MEMORANDUM OPINION NO. 94-05
GUIDELINES FOR ORS 227.178 - THE "120 DAY RULE."
1 . Initially, review all land use applications for completeness when they are first
submitted.
2. If an application is incomplete, send a letter to the applicant specifying what
information is missing and noting that the city does not consider the application
complete under ORS 227.178.
3. When an application is considered complete by the city, a letter should be sent
to the applicant noting this fact.
4. Remember that the statute requires the city to respond to an incomplete
application, as stated in Guideline No.2, within 30 days of receipt of the
application.
5. Monitor all applications with a timeline so that any delay in the process will be
apparent. This information should be shared with the applicant so that they are
aware of any problems.
6. Promptly obtain from the applicant a waiver of the "120 day rule" (under ORS
227.178(4)) when it is probable that a timeline will not be met. This waiver
must always be in writing and should specifically reference the statute.
7. It does no good to discuss the waiver issue with the applicant once the city is
in violation of the rule. Anticipate timeline problems before they occur and, if
a waiver can not be obtained, approach the City Administrator and City
Attorney about possible emergency measures that can be taken to expedite the
decision.

The court. issued the alternative writ and
scheduled a show' cause hearing for February
12, 1992. On February 11, 1992, the city
council took final,' action to deny relator's
application.
At the show cause hearing on Februai-y 12,
1992, City moved to dismiss the proceeding
on the ground that the city council's action on
February 11, 1992, 'deprived the court of
authority to issue the writ. The court denied
the motion. In its answer, City admitted
that it had not taken final action on relator's
application within 120 days of April' 5, 1991,
and allegedtha( approval ,of the appliCation
would violate City's comprehensive plan and

'to approve the application. a The court con-

11. City of Lake Oawego, supra, 121 Or.App.
at 488, 856 P.2d 819.. .Acco~ to the Court
of Appeals, its interpretation of ORB 227.-
178(7) resolved' an inherent conflict between
the mandamus statute and the LUBA l't!view
statutes in a manner that supported the leg-
islature's preference for LUBA review of
land use issues. I d.
[1] Whether the belated deciSion by City
to deny petitioner's application deprives the
circuit court of authority to compel approval
through a writ of mandamus is a question
that is controlled by the legislature's inten-
tion in adopting ORS 22'1.178('7). To discern
the legislature's intention, we begin by exam-
ining the' text and context of the statute.
PGE 11. Bureau of Lobar &: IndustrieB, 317
Or. 606, 610, 859 P.2d 1143 (1993). Context
includes "other provisions of the Same stat-
ute and other related statUtes." Id. at 611,
859 P.2d 1143.
[2] ORS 22'1.178(7) provides that, if the
city's governing body fails to take action
within the 12O-<1ay period specified in ORS
227.178(1), the applicant may seek a writ of
mandamus "to compel the governing body or
its designate to issue the approval." That
wording ereates aright to a judicially com-
pelled approval of an application, not merely
a right to a prompt decision by the governing
body to approve or disapprove the applica-
tion. Nothing in the statUtory text suggests
that the legislature intended to permit a local
government to foreclose an applicant's access
to the mandamus remedy by denying the
court loses jurisdiction to issue the writ when a
county takes final action during the pendency of
the mandamus proceeding. [d. at 142, 863 P.2d
1259.
S. ORS 197.825 provides:
"(1) Except as provided in ORS 197.320 and
subsections (2) and (3) of this section. the board
shall have exclusive jurisdiction to review any
land use decision or limited land uSe decision of
a local government. special district or a state
agency in the manner provided in ORS 197.830
to 197.845.
"(2) The jurisdiction of the board:
application after expiration of the. l2O-day
deadline.
. [3i The policy behind ORS 22'1.178(7) is
evident. If.a governing body (ails to take
final action on an application within the re-
quired 120 days, the applicant is entitled to
obtain. an order compelling approval, subject
to defenses that the governing body must
establish: The statutory schemtlJpProvides
an incentive for timely governmental action,
along with a remedial 'mechanism that results
in an approval, unless the governing body
demonstrates that approval would violate the

tions. Our review of the text of ORS 22'1.-
17fWT) and other related. s~tutes that ad-
dress the review of land use applications by .
cities, ORS 227.160 to OM 22'1.185, discloses
no basis for concluding that ORB 22'1.178(7)
is ambiguous. .
The statutes that provide for LUBA re-
view of land use decisions by cities are relat-
ed to the subject matter of ORS22'1.178(7)
and are, therefore, a part of its context.' We
examine those statuteS to determine wheth-
er, in the light of their Wording, the meaning
of ORS 22'1.178(7) becomes ambiguous.
ORS 197.805 provides:
"It is the policy of the Legislative AB-
semblythat time is of the essence in reach-
ing final decisions in matters mvolving land
use and that those decisions be made con-
sistently with sound principles governing
judicial review. It is the intent of the
Legislative Assembly inenaeti.ng ORS
197.805 to 197.855 toaceomplish these ob-
jectives."
[~] ORS 1970825& grants to LUBA ex-
clusive jurisdiction to review land use deci-

court, of whether an' approval of atand use
application complies with the comprehensive
plan and land use regulations; Under ORB
197.829,~UBA must affirm a lOCal gov-
ernment's interpretation of those provisions
unless it is not consistA!nt with the express
wording, purpose, or policy of those provi-
sions, or of a state law that those provisions'
implement. By contrast; under ORS ~.-
178(7),
"[t]he \Vrit shall be issued unle88 the gov-
ernifl{l body shows that the approval would
violate a substantive provision of the city
comprehensive plan or land use regulations
as d~fined in ORS 19'7.015," (Emphasis'
supplied.)
The two schemes could, conflict if the city's
belated .decision rendered the mandamus
proceeding moot. As the Court of Appeals
noted in Edf&61/ t1. Colu~ County B.QO.nl of
Commiasion6r8, supra. 119. Or -^pp. at 10,
849 P.2d 1l25, the nu,ndsunlJA statute and the
. LUBA statutes are silent about whether a
city's be1ateddecision to deny an application
affeets the eireoiteourt's mandamUs jurisdic-
tion. The Court of Appeals concluded that
such a decision by a city prevents the court
from issuing a writ, reasoning that there is
no reason to force a city to make a second
decision. According to that court, once the
city makes a decision, even a belated one, the
purpose of the mandamus statute bas been
satisfied, and there is no need to resort to
court.
[10, 11] That reasoning overlooks the ap-
plicant's statutory right, not merely to an
order that roles on the application, but to an
order coinpeUifl{l an approval. If a city
could avoid the mandamus remedy by deny-
ing the application on the eve of a court
hearing, the incentive to make a timely deci-
sion within 120 days would disappear. Prop-
erly viewed, the approval action that the
COurt compels through mandamus is not a
7. ORS 197.829 provides:
"The Land Use Board of Appeals shall affirm
a local government's interpretation of its com-
prehensive plan and land use regulations, un-
less the. board determines that the local gov-
ernment' 5 interpretation:

city's Violation of the l2O-day deadline. For
that reason, a belated decision. to deny: aD
application does not render moot the appli-
cant's claim to the mandamus...JMereDledy.
Under our analysis, the absence of wording
in ORS 22'1.178 or the LUBA statutes ad-
dressing the effect of a belated. denial does
not ereate an ambiguity regarding the court's
authority to issue a writ of. mandamUs.
[12] Our review of the text and context of
ORS 22'1.178(7) leads us to conclude that the
legislature's intention behind that statute is
clear. It Creates a remedy...:.a judicially com-
pelled approvaI-for a city's violation of the
l2O-d9 deadline in ORS 227.178(1). The
applicant's right to .that remed.yls not affect-
ed by the city's decision, after. the 12O-day
period bas expired, to deny the. application.
Nothing in. the other statutes that relate to
the same subject, including the LUBA review
statutes, creates an ambiguity 88 to the legis-
lative intention regarding the eireoit. court's
authority under these eircuJnst;ances It fol-
lows . that the COurt of Appeals en-ed in
holding that City's belated denial of ~.ap-
plication deprived the circuit court of authori-
ty to grant a writ of mandamus requiring
approval.of the application. We reverse the
Court of Appeals' decision in that regard.
Because the Court of Appeals disposed of
this ease. on jurisdictional grounds, it did not
address City's other assignment of error.
We remand the ease to the Court of Appeals
so that it may address that assignment of
error.

The decision of the Court of Appeals is
reversed. The ease is remanded to. the
Court ofAppeaIs for further proceedings.

SUBJECT: Water Update on Total Coliform
DATE: October 10, 1994
Results from samples taken on October 10, 1994 showed a positive result from the Water
Division sample point on Wilson Street but negative results from samples taken from two
house connections. These two house connections were as far away from the sample point
as State Health Division rules allow. Staff feels that the problem is isolated to a very small
area around the sample point.
It has been decided, in consultation with the Health Division, to chlorinate the supply lines
in the immediate vicinity of the sample point. This will disinfect the lines and should
eliminate the coliform bacteria that are leading to the positive results. Where possible,
along the chlorinated section of line, the chlorinated water will be drawn into the home
systems. This action will be closely coordinated with affected homeowners.
Again NO samples contained any fecal or E. Coli type bacteria. Staff will continue to
closely monitor the situation in consultation with the Health Division.

Tentative Awarcl of BJA Grant
SUBJ.:
DATE:
October 10, 1994
In the next few days there will likely be media reports that the City of
Woodburn has been awarded a 3-year $150,000 federal community policing grant
($50,000/yr.). Police Chief Ken Wright was notified by federal officials Friday
afternoon, October 7th. A formal ceremony in Washington, DC is scheduled for
Wednesday, October 12, 1994 at which time President Clinton will sign the
appropriations bill.
This grant award poses a "pleasant dilemma" for the city. As councilors will
recall, the 1994-95 proposed budget, presented last January, made allowance for this
same BJA grant, which would fund two additional police patrol positions. A local
matching share of some $36,000 (per year) was included in the proposed budget.
Upon learning that the grant application was not funded last spring, the 1994-95
budget was adopted with the local matching portion reallocated, and some additional
dollars added, to add one full-time patrol position outright without benefit of the BJA
grant.
Consequently, as we receive word of this belated tentative grant award, our
1994-95 budget is in effect without an allowance for the $36,000 local match for the
BJA grant. Staff will further investigate our alternatives in this regard and keep the
council advised. At the present time, our options appear to be as follows:
1. Find $36,000 in "new" money in Fiscal Year 1994-95 with the certainty
that the same commitment can be continued through the following two fiscal years.
2. Pursuade federal officials to allow the grant to be deferred until July 1,
1995 (the next fiscal year), allowing the city an opportunity to budget for this
continuing cost during 1995 budget deliberations.
3. Decline the BJA grant because adequate local matching funds are not
available.
While Option 1 would be ideal, Option 2 is the most likely scenario (if the
acceptance date can be deferred). Option 3 has to realistically remain a distinct
possibility. In separate discussions with Chief Wright and also Mayor Kelley, we are
-
Page 2 - Tentative BJA Grant Award (10/10/94)
in agreement that this opportunity must be approached very carefully to avoid over-
committing the city's resources. The council will have to look closely at a number of
factors, including at least three measures appearing on the November 8, 1994 General
Election ballot (measures 5, 15 and 20), in determining whether the city will be in a
position to make the commitment to accept the grant and sustain that commitment
over a subsequent three year period.
On the positive side, Chief Wright and the Police Department, particularly
through the grant-writing efforts of Lt. " Paul Null, are to be commended for
successfully applying and competing for, and winning, this significant federal grant.
A more thorough report on our options will be provided at the next Council
meeting.
