Powell, City Attorney COUNCIL REPORT Subject: Resolution R-01-0057/ LU -01-0041 Agreement authorizing Steve Berrey to use River Run Park for the purpose of a Wetland Enhancement Project Date: September 7, 2001 BACKGROUND In 1999, Pacific Habitat Services (PHS), a Consultant acting for developer Steve Berrey, approached the City of Lake Oswego's Natural Resource Coordinator for the purpose of creating a wetland mitigation project on City property. Mr. Berry was required by state and federal law to do compensatory mitigation for the fill of .25 acres of wetland in the City of Tualatin in 1999. The City Natural Resource Coordinator recommended that PHS implement a portion of the Canal Area Master plan by "daylighting" a stormdrain, creating a wetland, and developing a trail in River Run Park. PHS held a community meeting with the River Run neighborhood and sent out flyers and questionnaires. The plans were modified per recommendations of neighbors. PHS submitted a Resource Enhancement Permit Application on 7/16/01 for Administrative Review (LU -01-0041). In order for the application to be approved, the Council would need to authorize the use of the River Run Parcel, a City owned property, for the above state purposes. Adoption of attached Resolution R-01-0057 authorizes the City Manager to sign such an agreement. DISCUSSION This agreement grants Steve Berrey authorization to use River Run Park for a natural resource mitigation project. The applicant is proposing to daylight the stormdrain to provide hydrology for the wetland area, excavate a seasonal wetland, remove invasive species and vegetate the area with native plant species, construct a neighborhood loop trail along the Tualatin River in River Run Park, and will abide by all State, Federal and City regulations for the construction and maintenance of the project. In addition, the applicant will be required to maintain and monitor the wetland for five years following construction. The cost/benefit analysis included in Attachment 3 illustrates the total cost of these activities at over $53,000. The grantee will assume these costs and the City will realize partial implementation of the Bryant Woods/Canal Area Master Plan as identified in Attachment 4. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution R-01-0057 granting temporary easement and use of River Run Park for the purpose of a wetland enhancement project and direct staff to execute the attached easement.

Lasmend Page 3 - Easement RIVER RUN MITIGATION COST ANALYSIS July 28, 2001 In 1999, Pacific Habitat Services (PHS), contacted Deb Lev and Chris Jordan of the City of Lake Oswego for help in identifying a location for a required wetland mitigation project that would meet state/federal regulations and also be a benefit to Lake Oswego interests. River Run Park was selected because there was an adopted master plan for that park. The Canal Area Master Plan identifies River Run Park (West) as an area to enhance for water quality, wildlife, and passive recreation. The master plan recommends in particular the "daylighting" of the stormdrain into a newly created wetland. The plan also recommends a trail along the Tualatin River with views of the river and the created wetland. There were several River Run neighborhood meetings and correspondences to also identify community concerns for the project. River Run Park is completely within the floodplain of the Tualatin River and is identified as a resource on Lake Oswego's sensitive land overlay. Brian Kelly, a third -party appraiser, estimates the value of land of this type between $500 and $2,500 per acre. PHS is proposing to enhance an acre of the park (which does not include the land to be used for the trail). The ('anal Area Master Plan estimates some of the costs for restoring the wetland and building a trail as follows: *The master plan estimates $48,000 for the implementation of the whole plan for River Run east and west. The $16,000 is one third of the overall cost for implementation of the plan recommendations. **The master plan estimates the removal of invasive plants for both River Run east and west at $1,500. The $500 value is one third of the overall cost because the enhancement area is approximately one third of the park. ***Approximately 500 feet of crushed gravel trail at $15 per linear foot.
