Dan and Gerald,
David has asked me to lend a hand in this matter. I’ve looked briefly at the relevant documents David forwarded and I think there are a couple of preliminary questions the City needs to answer. First, we need to make sure that the City is on solid footing to require ROW improvements (or a remonstrance waiver) when the applicant is seeking to rebuild substantially the same facility previously approved without such a requirement being imposed. Second, we need to look into the applicant’s argument regarding the City’s authority to require a waiver of remonstrance, when the Code explicitly authorizes it in certain sections and is silent elsewhere. If the City does in fact have the authority to require the improvements this time around, this second question may turn into a “be careful what you wish for” issue.
I will let you know what I find out.

Hi David,
I spoke with our Transportation Engineer and he said he needed to talk with you directly regarding rough proportionality. His analysis on other projects were related to offsite improvements. In this case, the frontage improvements are a standard condition of development so RP would not apply. If you could contact Scott Mansur, DKS Associates at 503.391.8773 to discuss that would be great. I could not find any condition related to frontage improvements in the Planning files for the original project. The Planner at the time only noted “unimproved” and “remote” area in his findings. In a partition plat done by the County Planning Dept (under contract with the City in 2013) they stated that they had not received conditions or comments from the then PW Director and that the applicant would need to coordinate with the City PW Director for required frontage improvements. We have looked in our files and do not have a copy of the planning files from the County.
The roadway was identified in the TSP in 2001.
The building was added on to in 2006 and the code at the time required half street improvement. The applicant did not extend the water and sewer services to the end of the property or comply with stormwater detention requirements.
The partition was done in 2013 and no record exists of the applicant complying with the street improvement requirements.
Hence my CofA for a waiver of remonstrance for street improvements.
Regards,
Gerald Fisher, P.E. | Public Works Director

Aldo – We need to have the following completed:
1. Meeting notice for the 17th in the Paper and on the Website and Facebook (Not a Public Notice).
2. Make sure the appellant receives one.
3. Gerald will ask our Traffic Engineer to perform a Rough Proportionality analysis.
4. Make sure the Adult Center is available.
5. I would like you to scour the original decision and find anything that has not been completed by Mr. Taylor. For example – Is the water line actually installed?
