—Original Message—
From: Tracy,Morgan
Sent: Friday,Apnl 23, 1999 10:50 AM
To: Lev,Deborah
Subject: NRAB's recommendations/Staffs proposed changes
Deb, could you please forward this to the NRAB members. We will be providing this to DRC
and PC members on Monday night along with the proposed amendments that have already
been sent out.
The proposed Code revisions to Chapter 55 respond to the City Council's direction to address
the issues raised in the Natural Resources Advisory Board's memo of December 18, 1998. The
following identifies the issues raised in NRAB's memo, and describes what changes to the
Code are proposed to address each of those issues.
1. Requirement Arborist Reports for all Type II permit requests related to tree health.
First, the category for"dying trees" was deleted, leaving tree health related requests only for
removing dead and hazard trees. Staff feels confident that a dead tree can be identified without
a certified arborist report; however, hazard trees are more subjective. As it stands, the City
may require an arborist report. Language was added to enable staff to request not only a report
11/
substantiating the request, but also providing alternative recommendations to alleviate the
hazard apart from removal of the tree [LOC 55.02.080(2)(b)].
2. Violations and Mitigation
NRAB wanted to require uniform mitigation (tree replacement) for any Type II tree removal.
Current standards leave more discretion for imposing mitigation. A new section (LOC
55.02.082) was added to require mitigation based on a minimum one for one tree replacement.
NRAB wanted to emphasize that mitigation was a positive and not punitive component of the
code. The penalties section was largely re-written to require a person found in violation of the
tree code to satisfy the mitigation requirements as if a permit had been properly issued, in
addition to fines that are directly related to the severity of the violation. Refer to LOC
55.02.130(4). To promote education related to the values of trees and the permitting program,
a provision was added to allow a 25 percent reduction of the imposed fine if the person found
in violation attends an "approved tree education course."
3. Clarify Emergency Trees from Hazard Trees
Language was amended in both LOC 55.02.080(2) and LOC 55.02.035(3)(a) to better
distinguish between what constitutes an "Emergency" from a "Hazard." Additional reporting
requirements were added and an independent oversight review provision was added for
"Emergency trees."
4. Notice Requirements for Type II permits
Three issues were identified with the current notice procedures. NRAB wanted to expand the
required notice for Hazard and Dead trees. NRAB also proposed door hangars for notifying
abutting neighbors. Third, Major and Minor development proposals are not subject to the same
• notification procedures as tree cutting permits when tree removals are involved (i.e. notice is
provided through standard Notices Mailed to property owners within 300 feet).

DRAFT RURAL LAKE GROVE NEIGHBORHOOD PLAN
• STEERING COMMITTEE
Meeting
May 4, 1999
CALL TO ORDER
The meeting was called to order at approximately 10:10 AM on Tuesday, May 4,
1999, in the Municipal Courtroom of City Hall, by Chair Ken Sandblast.
II. ROLL CALL
Committee members present were Chair Ken Sandblast, Laurie Mahar, Cathy Shroyer
and Peg Trippe. Staff present was Jane Heisler, Project Planner, City of Lake Oswego
Planning Department.
III. APPROVAL OF MINUTES
The minutes of the April 20, 1999 meeting were approved as modified.
IV. DISCUSS APPROACH TO COMMERCIAL LANDS AND TREES
Prior to the commercial lands and tree discussion there was general discussion on
some other items. Ken indicated that John Williams, a neighborhood resident, would
submit a Letter of Intent for the Neighborhood Enhancement Program, for a pathway
between Kimball and Inverurie to improve access to Waluga Park. Staff will prepare a
draft flyer for the June 3, 1999 neighborhood meeting and email to the Committee for
review along with the draft plan. Ken mentioned that he went to the LONAC (Lake
Oswego Neighborhood Action Coalition) on Saturday. He suggested that more Rural
Lake Grove officials attend. Albertson's proposal was briefly discussed. Apparently,
they are proposing more parking than allowed by code.
After some discussion, the Committee agreed to not propose any additional
commercial areas or any areas to study for the possibility of commercial uses, within
the neighborhood. Reasons cited included a sufficiency of commercial with the West
Lake Grove Plan adoption as well as the possibility of raised expectations when
naming a study area. It was concluded that property owners who wanted to propose
commercial could rely on the City's existing comprehensive plan policies, but the
neighborhood plan would indicate that additional commercial was not desirable.
Another related issue discussed was whether the Carman/I-5/Lake Forest area should
be designated as a study area for higher density housing. The Committee concluded
that indicating this as a study area would raise expectations and would be too
undefined. The question was raised about whether a developer could develop under
• County standards and then annex. Staff would look into this and get back to the
Committee. Staff will also explore the question of whether the UGMA or the

The Neighborhood Plan Steering Committee Needs Your Help!
Did you know that Rural Lake Grove Neighborhood is developing a Neighborhood Plan?
In conjunction with the City of Lake Oswego and Clackamas County,the neighborhood
has the opportunity to put together goals and policies to help guide neighborhood
improvements. The Neighborhood Plan represents a commitment by the residents,
property owners, business owners and the City and County to enhance the quality of the
neighborhood.
The Steering Committee needs your help! Since this will be YOUR Neighborhood Plan,
it should reflect your opinion and that of your neighbors. What things about the
neighborhood do you think need to be preserved, enhanced or, don't bear repeating?
What kinds of strategies for specific areas or groups of issues are important to you:
Street design, neighborhood character, public improvements? This is your chance to state
your opinion. t -�i(k 8r y►'�0�(,Q t� lo-L '10

The proposed amendments require notice for a Type II permits [LOC 55.02.075(1)]. Door
hangars were discussed but seemed ineffective and required either increased staff time to hang
• them or verify that they were distributed by the applicant. Instead, post card type notices will
be sent to all adjacent properties, LOC 55.02.075(4). Thirdly, changes were made to LOC
55.02.035 requiring a site plan indicating the proposed tree removals and flagging of trees in
the field. This site plan would be mailed along with the Major or Minor Development notice of
application. This enables members of the public to determine which trees will ultimately
require removal as part of the development proposal.
5. Type II permit triggers.
NRAB, in concert with the recently adopted Lake Grove neighborhood plan, desired to limit
the applicability of Type I permits. Currently, any single family property (with some
restrictions)that is not divisible into three or more lots can remove all the trees on the lot with a
$7 permit and no criteria to disallow the request. LOC 55.02.042 was changed so that Type II
permits are required in all circumstances except when a residentially zoned single family
homeowner requests to remove no more than two trees, each less than 12 inches in diameter.
6. Dying and diseased trees
The provisions for"dying" and"diseased" trees were deleted form the code. Staff and NRAB
concur that the"dying" category is far too broad and could include trees that will be in the
process of dying for many years. Diseased trees will be considered part of trees not dead or
hazardous. In cases of fast spreading blight where the delays associated with a two week
notice process would be possibly detrimental to other nearby trees, emergency tree permits
could be an alternative.
7. Removals on single family lots in Commercial or Industrial Zones
NRAB was concerned by the inequity caused when non-conforming single family homes apply
• for tree cutting permits. Currently they are automatically Type II permits subject to the Type II
permit fees. NRAB and staff believe that the Type II criteria are still relevant and that tree
removals in commercial and industrial zones should be scrutinized. However, the fees should
be similarly applied as if the property were in a residential zone. No code changes are
necessary to achieve this, and a separate fee resolution will be presented to Council including
other proposed fee changes.

Summary of Maior Issues:
• West Lake Grove Design Plan recently adopted by City of Lake Oswego
provides for 15 acres of office/neighborhood commercial and townhouse
development.
• Metro 2040 Plan calls for additional commercial and higher density
residential to be placed in or near Town Centers, Main Streets and Transit
Corridors.
• The commercially zoned areas now abutting Rural Lake Grove
Neighborhood and including the West Lake Grove Design District lie
within the area Lake Oswego has proposed designating as a Town Center

• 75% do not want to rezone any additional areas to commercial
• 66% said they did not want any multi-unit housing in the neighborhood
Suggested Policy Direction:
Limit commercial growth to those areas designated in the West Lake Grove

:)ear Residents and Property Owners of the Rural Lake Grove Neighborhood Association:
0 ince September 1995 a group of residents from the Rural Lake Grove Neighborhood has been meeting twice
a month to discuss the future of our neighborhood. This neighborhood planning group is composed of
)eople in our neighborhood who volunteered at general membership meetings of the neighborhood association
luring 1995. In addition, these individuals have been presenting the results of their discussions at each of the
;eneral membership meetings held by the Rural Lake Grove Neighborhood Association.
In the spring of last year, our neighborhood was selected to participate in a formal neighborhood planning
program. A neighborhood plan guides the way our area will look and feel in the future. Policies and
ordinances regarding land use, traffic, natural resources, safety and public services will be drafted and adopted
that directly affect the future quality and livability of our neighborhood. Since this is only the beginning of the
neighborhood planning process, you have the opportunity to participate in identifying those issues that we, as a
neighborhood, consider important to guiding the future of our area.
It is for this very reason that your responses to the attached survey are vitally important. This is your chance to
be in on the ground floor of planning the future of our neighborhood. Other than organizing the survey around
several general categories, there have been no conclusions drawn or directions taken for the future of our
neighborhood. The results of this survey will act as our guide in all future work so please takes a few,
1 es to answer the attached Questions.
Instead of wondering when"someone" will do something about that particular issue you feel would improve or
protect our neighborhood, take a few minutes now to answer the attached questions and let your association
know what you think. We encourage you to participate in this ongoing neighborhood planning process by:
• Completing and returning this survey
• Attending Rural Lake Grove Neighborhood Association meetings
• Watching your mailbox/Reading the newspaper for information and meeting notices
• Calling one of the people listed below with specific questions or concerns
Thank you in advance for taking time from your day to respond to the attached survey. The deadline for
returning the survey is January 17. 1997. For your convenience, the return address is pre-labeled so that all
you have to do is COMPLETE IJiE SURVEY, FOLD IT IN THIRDS. PLACE A STAMP ON IT,
AND DROP IT IN THE MAILBOX.

LAND USE - DEVELOPMENT PATTERNS
Land use is a broad term that describes not only the past and present ways in which building and development has and is
occurring,but also takes into consideration plans for how development may occur in the future. Presently, the Rural Lake
Grove area is composed of predominantly single family homes on lots sized 15,000 to 20,000 square feet with several areas of .
newer home construction on lots sized 7,000 to 9,000 square feet. There is also significant commercial development around
the fringes of our neighborhood-Kruse Way/Bangy Road and Boones Ferry. FOOD FOR THOUGHT: Government
decisions will be made over the next few years to decrease the average lot sizes of new developments occurring throughout
the region, including any new development in our neighborhood How do we as a neighborhood want to address this
issue?
1. In terms of future growth in our neighborhood,do you support subdividing large lots to build more homes?
Yes No Why?
2. If large lots are subdivided,what should the minimum lot size be?
A. — 6,500 sq ft C. _ 8,500 sq ft(current county min.) E. Other
B. _ 7,500 sq ft(current city min.) D. _ 10,000 sq ft
3. What type of commercial businesses do you support having in our neighborhood? (Answer all 3)
A. In-home business which is owner/renter occupied. Zoning is residential. (ie.day care or piano lessons)
Yes,No If yes,what restrictions should apply? If no,why?
B. A business which is conducted out of a house,but no one lives there. Zoning is commercial.
(ie. Omni Electric) Yes_ No If yes,what restrictions should apply? If no,why?
C. A business in a new structure. Zoning is commercial. (ie. grocery,fast food,retail,etc.)
Yes_No If yes,what restrictions should apply? If no,why?
11111
4. Would you like to re-zone any area of our neighborhood?(ie.residential to commercial,commercial to residential)
_ Yes_No If yes, specify streets/locations on the map included with this survey. If no, why?
5. To help meet density requirements,would you support building multi-unit housing(i.e. town/row houses or
condominiums)in our neighborhood?_Yes_No If yes,specify location(s)on the map included with this
survey. If no,why?
6. Please write down any thoughts,concerns or questions pertaining to Land Use that were not addressed.
STREET DESIGN - TRANSPORTATION
Many of the roads within our neighborhood do not currently have curbs,sidewalks or bikelanes. Several streets are seeing
more and more cars which are traveling too fast. There are numerous dirt pathways used by children and adults alike when
walking throughout the neighborhood to connect between streets. POINTS TO PONDER: Do we want our neighborhood to
set standards for the future that keep our streets "rural"in nature or do we abide by existing governmental plans for
standard streets with curbs, sidewalks and bikelanes? What about connections between blocks for pedestrians?
7. At this point,all of the paths that connect our neighborhood are natural. Would you like to:
A. Pave any existing natural paths? — Yes _No If yes,where? •
B. Add any new paths? _ Yes—No If yes,where?
C. Keep natural,but improve paths? _ Yes_ No If yes,where?
Do we need to improve the pedestrian connectivity of our neighborhood?(ie. from street to street,to Waluga Park,to
schools or to stores) —Yes No If yes,specify location(s)on the map included with this survey.
).• Would you be willing to participate in a neighborhood Adopt-A--Pathway program? _ Yes_No
10. Are there any streets in our neighborhood that you feel pose a threat to pedestrian/bicyclists safety?
Yes_No If yes,list the street(s),what you think the main cause is,and what should be done to
make the street more safe.
11. Being as specific as possible,are there any places you would like to see: (Leave blank if answer is no)
A. Stop signs:
B. _ Speed bumps:
C. _ Sidewalks:
D. _ Curbs:
E. Ped/bike paths:
F. Traffic islands:
G. Other:
12. Would you be willing to contribute financially towards the costs of constructing improvements?_Yes _ No
13. Do you use the Tri-Met bus lines in our neighborhood? Yes _No
If yes,what improvements could be made?
14. Please write down any thoughts,concerns or questions pertaining to Trans,/Street Design that weren't addressed.
PUBLIC SERVICES

The Neighborhood Plan Steering Committee Needs Your Help!
• Did you know that Rural Lake Grove Neighborhood is developing a Neighborhood Plan?
In conjunction with the City of Lake Oswego and Clackamas County, the neighborhood
has the opportunity to put together goals and policies to help guide neighborhood
improvements. The Neighborhood Plan represents a commitment by the residents,
property owners, business owners and the City and County to enhance the quality of the
neighborhood.
The Steering Committee needs your help! Since this will be YOUR Neighborhood Plan,
it should reflect your opinion and that of your neighbors. What things about the
neighborhood do you think need to be preserved, enhanced or, don't bear repeating?
What kinds of strategies for specific areas or groups of issues are important to you:
Street design, neighborhood character, public improvements? This is y i r chance to state
your opinion. dNW tsby
The Steering Committee hopes to have a draft set of goals and policies to neighborhood
residents over the next few months. A January, 1997 survey sent to all neighborhood
residents provided good background and direction for the Neighborhood Plan, but needs
to be supplemented. Please fill out the attached questionnaire by May 14, 1999 and
either:
Fax it:
• City of Lake Oswego
Attention: Jane Heisler 635-0269, or,
Mail it to the City of Lake Oswego
Attention: Jane Heisler
P. O. Box 369
Lake Oswego, OR 97034, or,
Drop it by City Hall at 380 A Avenue, Lake Oswego
Thank you for your input.
