City Council Work Session and Regular Meeting, July 20, 2026
Added:never.
Hey See?
Heat. Heat.
H I Okay. Yeah.
me.
Hey baby.
about me.
I call to order the work session of the Wils City Council for July 20th, 26 at 5:00 pm.
I'll start by asking council members for review of the agenda and items on consent. Are there any comments?
Uh any councelor general concerns?
Okay. Next, we turn to council input on board and commission appointments and reappointments.
There's any individual who wish me to consider for the appointment on the planning commission. And I think that's the only one that's before us. Uh I could use those names now to consider.
Councelor Skull.
I'd like to make a recommendation for Mary Pettinger. I've reviewed all the uh uh applicants and uh her applications seem to be uh done very well. She has a good amount of uh qualifications. uh she served uh on several committees and graduated from the uh civics academy and she also has uh experience in teaching and uh uh in land use in Oregon land use rule uh laws and everything. So I would [snorts] put her name forward to uh to interview. Thank you.
>> All right. Thank you. Anybody else on council?
>> Councelor Cuttingham.
[snorts] I've had a few people contact me with uh their interest.
I think all of them were highly qualified. Uh those people included Katie Dunwell, Jenny Hill, and John Bado. John Bado is a former first citizen of Wilsonville. [snorts] Uh has extensive background in planning and logistics uh through the military uh and is a uh extremely uh uh volunteers a lot of time in the community. Um Miss Hill uh is a local realer. uh she has a lot of conversations with a lot of people in this community about what they're looking for [snorts] uh what they're looking to see this community provide and I think she would offer a unique perspective uh for our planning commission. And then finally, Katie Dunwell, who's served before on our DRB and of course on city council, has a great understanding of how the city operates and uh things get done. Of the three, is there any order? The order you present, is that your order? If I other ones, >> uh, I would probably say, uh, Jenny Hill, John Bado, and Katie Dunwell.
>> Okay. Thank you. Any Oh, um, uh, city council president Barry.
>> Um, I agree, um, with the first nomination. I think that should make an excellent candidate.
>> Of which one?
>> Mary Pettinger.
>> Yes. Okay. Any other counselor comments on this?
Okay, thank you everybody. Take those names under consideration. Uh turning now to our work session. Uh first up is housing statutory compliance.
Good afternoon, Mayor O'Neal and city councilors. I'm Kim Ryold, senior planner with the city's planning division, and I'm here tonight to kick off part two of the housing statutory compliance project. Uh, as you're aware, uh, the overall housing statutory compliance project uh started, we started work on this uh about maybe eight or so months ago and split this project into two parts. uh one of which dealt with required process changes to residential review uh which were adopted by the city council last month and are in effect as of July 1st of this year.
The second part of this project will turn its focus to uh changes that uh mostly came into place during the 2025 legislative session through House Bill 2138 uh which tackled a variety of topics uh related to middle housing tree codes, middle housing land divisions, and some other code cleanup related to housing.
Uh we're also going to be looking at some other bills that have come about over the past handful of years that uh the city has not yet been able to assess and incorporate into the development code. Uh so with me tonight is Lee Allig from 3J Consulting. Uh they are our partner on this project in assessing the code. Uh and Lee will kick us off by providing some background on the statutory requirements that we are looking at. uh with this part of the project.
>> Great. Thank you, Kim. Good evening, Mayor O'Neal and council members. I will give a quick overview of the project purpose and the requirements, prevent the code audit assessment, and then we're looking to gather input to informed the outreach that we're planning and the development code amendments that will ultimately come out of this effort.
So, the primary focus of part two is on the provisions of HB238.
As Kim mentioned, uh the city has maintained a list of other needed code updates based on recent legislation, and these additional items are addressed in the assessment that was included in your packet for tonight's meeting. And to support the primary focus of this project, we'd like to engage you and the public on tree removal and preservation standards for residential development, which Kim will speak to in greater detail later in the presentation.
So, you can see here our schedule. We are currently in July 2026. We've published the code audit memo. We're holding these work sessions. Outreach and draft code amendments will occur in the fall. We are aiming for hearings at the end of this year and early next year. January 1st is when HB238 is effective. Um you can see that that effective date is before these amendments are expected to be adopted.
Um and that's true of many of the other amendments that we'll be making in the interim. Staff will be applying state law directly um while we're developing these code amendments for you.
So the city has a robust tree program and it's been implementing the code for a number of years. Uh HB 21318 requires that all cities or jurisdictions have to create clear and objective tree removal standards for residential development.
As Kim mentioned, it also includes looking at streamlining the middle housing land division process. And there's a sample here from Lake Asiggo that shows um how an attached triplex might be divided into three underlying lots. The city does have a process for this currently, but there will need to be some small changes to comply with the state law updates. And there are also different types of um residential uses like single room occupancies that need to be addressed and incorporated into the code.
So, in addition to HP 2138, there are other legislative actions that are addressed in the memo and the matrix that you all received. And so that includes affordable housing provisions such as allowing additional units if there's an accessible or affordable dwelling unit included in a middle housing development. There's a looking at the definition of household. Uh state law prohibits defining household based on the number of people in a household and their familial relationship. So, we'll be looking at that, updating where uses like family child care homes and child care centers, residential treatment facilities and treatment homes, um where they can be located in the community without a special level of review. We're also uh looking at removing reference to the city review of condominium platting. The process for a condominium plat would remain the same, but the city doesn't have a formal role in the legal component of the condominium plat review. There provisions that allow the conversion of commercial buildings to residential without uh zone changes or variances.
There are also provisions that prohibit requiring frontage improvements for alterations and res renovations in certain cases where a building doesn't expand and the um use classification doesn't change. And finally, there's some provisions specifically to natural occurring hazards and destruction of residential uses, providing an additional amount of time for people to pull permits and replace those dwelling units to allow them to get through um insurance uh or any law um lawsuits that may come out of those hazards.
And so that is the ultimate um overview and I'm going to hand it back over to Kim.
>> Thank you. Uh I just want to before we get into a deeper dive on the tree uh requirements that we have before us, I want to provide a little background on how our current tree preservation and protection codes work uh particularly as it relates to residential development.
Um because this is the one area where we are required to move to a clear and objective process but uh we do have some policy choices for how we decide to do that. Uh the current code was adopted by the city in 1996 and it strives to consider tree preservation as an equivalent design principle to other uh aspects of development that might be considered. So considering it on an evil even level such um you know such as you would with street layout or um where you're placing uses and buildings. We also want to be able to uh think about how different design alternatives might result in tree preservation. Uh the pictures that are on this slide are some examples of how the city has done that since the tree uh code has been in effect. The upper left picture is actually early on in the development of Vila. And you can see how some of those existing trees that are there were incorporated into the street tree network and into open spaces. and that was a very important principle in the layout of that neighborhood. Uh since then uh we've taken similar approaches as we've evaluated development uh in places such as Frog Pond West. Uh and so we have as examples here the uh Willow Creek Oak that was preserved during development of the neighborhoods there.
Uh as well as preservation of tree grows uh and using those tree groves as open space in the neighborhood. Uh and you can also see how uh the city prioritized preservation of existing mature Doug Douglas trees at the Voya development.
Uh and so the way our tree code has been written and used uh allows that flexibility to look at a site and think about which trees are worthy of preservation and think about how a site can be designed to achieve that preservation. Uh we do this by requiring a tree survey with development that provides information on the location of trees, species of trees, size, health, and other characteristics. And for any trees that are removed with development, the city requires one forone mitigation.
And if that's not feasible, payment into the city tree fund. Um with House Bill 2138, the city has to develop clear and objective tree removal standards for residential development. Uh so this is very similar to other standards that the city has developed over the years for residential development, things like numerical uh quantifiable standards for setbacks or building height. We kind of have to now take that approach with trees as well. Uh notably the statute does still allow for cities to offer an optional discretionary path at the applicant's choosing. Uh so because of this uh we are considering a process change for the tree surveys that I mentioned whereby we would treat these similar to traffic studies that the city actually maintains a relationship with a traffic consultant that then processes all of the traffic studies. uh we're considering doing that with tree surveys to ensure quality and consistency uh in our analysis of development. Uh some considerations in actually developing the standards for tree removal that is clear and objective. Uh things we could consider would be species to prioritize for preservation. Uh certain characteristics of trees whether that be health, size, location on a site, whether or not the trees are alone or in groves. uh as well as uh as I mentioned retention of the current standards as an optional alternative discretionary path. Uh so these are some ideas we could consider in developing that code. Um we uh presented this information to the planning commission at their work session earlier this month and sought feedback on these questions as well.
uh they um didn't have necessarily any strong feelings right now about specific characteristics to look at. Uh they did think that uh going to the community with visual preference information to actually be able to see what examples have looked like over the years could be helpful. Uh so tonight we are just hoping to get similar feedback from you uh to give you an opportunity to ask any questions you have about the statutory requirements and the code changes that would come with those. But then really try to get any initial feedback you have on uh potential considerations for development of a clear and objective tree code. and in particular if there's anybody you would like us to talk to or any specific ideas you have for outreach that would inform your decision-making as we move forward. Uh so with that we are happy to answer any other questions or hear what feedback you have. Thank you >> council president Barry.
>> Uh thank you for your update. Um, you mentioned uh potentially looking at having a consultant that would write all the reports for any kind of applicant.
Is that >> did I understand that correctly?
>> That is correct.
>> Did the planning commission give you feedback on that?
>> Um, I think uh we had a couple of commissioners suggest that that seemed like a reasonable approach.
>> I mean to me that seems reasonable also just for consistency and fairness.
>> Thank you. Thank you, >> Council Skull.
>> Relative to tree replacement, I have several questions. Uh being involved in the HOA and Villa, uh the neighborhood's probably about 20 years old and uh so if I understand, if it's a removal, it's a one forone replacement.
>> Correct.
>> Would there be any u setback rules from the from the homes? A lot of the trees that were planted way back either have root balls or they're interfering with the homes now, damaging the homes. And we as the HOA have to basically mitigate that situation on a yearly basis. So my suggestion there would be some type of rules that would be in uh that would affect the replacement uh in terms of what type of trees you're using and what the setbacks away from the homes would be considering growth over a 10 15 20 year period and also height too. Uh we have some pretty large trees that are probably upward to 60 70 feet I'm just guessing. But at some point in time, they're going to need to be dealt with and as we work into this with any of the new development, I think that should be considered.
>> Thank you, >> Councelor Chevlin.
>> Thank you. Um, thank you, Kim. May I ask a question about something other than trees?
>> Yes.
>> Okay, good. Thank you. Although I I I just wanted to note that we are a tree city, a very proud tree city. Um so it uh appears that it shouldn't be too difficult for us to come into compliance with um the requirements because we've already got quite a bit in place. But my question has to do with um the prohibition on requiring a traffic impact analysis or exactions for most middle housing development. I'm not quite sure what was the purpose of prohibiting the traffic impact analysis.
Could you help me with that?
>> Sure. I can't tell you that I understand the practice of prohibiting it. I know that in practice in some cases a traffic impact analysis would al actually benefit the developer because it would support requiring less than might have otherwise been supported. Um but that is that is the legislation that was adopted.
All right. Well, maybe we can find out a little bit more about it. I mean, are we So, we're prohibited from conducting the analysis, which means that we could face some sort of legal issues if we actually conducted the analysis. Is that correct?
>> Uh, correct. So my understanding and I I don't want to fully speculate on legislative intent but um particularly with middle housing developments um a lot of these types of developments happen in an infill settings where you have an already developed uh area and um I think in some cases these were seen as burdensome to developers uh when you know you're already kind of in an established network with traffic infrastructure. I think in the Wilsonville case, um this isn't or has not historically been as common. It could be more more so over time. Uh typically, if you're dealing with only, let's say, up to 12 units. Um that's something that um often can be dealt with via a smaller scale study and or traffic memo. Um but again we would be prohibited from requiring that as part of an application process. So um certainly if we tried to do that I I think that's something where I most likely see that a de developer would just uh say no I don't have to provide that and I'm not going to and then we would have to process the application without it.
>> All right. Thank you councelor Cunningham.
Yeah. Can you expound upon uh there was one bullet point that said residential allowances and non-residential zones.
What would some examples or what would that look like?
>> Sure. Uh there are certain zones um essentially everything except heavy industrial where childcare centers must be allowed. Uh residential care homes and resident residential care facilities need to be allowed in residential and commercial zones I believe. Um, and then there's the provision that allows for conversion of a commercial building to residential use in all or part of it without requiring its own change or some kind of a variance approval or something similar. So, some of these aren't directly housing related bills like the childcare center and um residential care homes, but they're looking at making sure that these facilities can be cited in communities, areas of the community where they are needed.
Does how does that play into something like a mixeduse building with ground floor commercial?
>> That's a great question. I think so.
There are a couple of things at play here. One is SP 1537 which is mandatory adjustments and one of the provisions of SP 1537 is that an applicant can request a waiver or an adjustment to a requirement to have ground floor active uses or commercial uses in some conditions. I think part of what we'll be doing through the development code amendments is figuring out what it might look like if someone wants to convert a commercial use to a residential use and what combination of tools they might have to make that request and then what ability the city has to shape what the outcomes are. So that's we're still in the early exploratory phases of that effort.
So it would be a possibility to convert that ground floor space to residential.
Then >> if they requested an adjustment through SP 1537 um they can request a adjustment to that requirement in some cases most cases >> and I would note that the adjustment process in 1537 is a temporary process.
So that's why we are not addressing that in the development code that will sunset. Uh so the development code updates that we will be looking at uh the bill that speaks specifically to conversion of commercial uses that would be something for existing development.
So, uh, again, I don't want to fully speak to legislative intent, but this, I think, came about, uh, in in more of that, um, vacant office building type of situation where you hear a lot about this in Portland where there's questions of, well, why we should be able to make it easier to convert this vacant office space into a residential use. And so, I think a lot of that was the genesis behind this bill. Um we don't have a ton of office building uh square footage in Wilsonville that is in that circumstance. Uh so uh you know but technically we have to allow for that per the statute.
>> Yeah, that's a little concerning. I know you won't speak to legislative intent, but as I look through this list, it sure appears like there's a lot of frustration from the governor's office around unmet housing goals as this just opens us up to having our ability to control our zoning and our uh how we plan our city and where we put certain things and and how we set things up um kind of blows it up in our face um to chase after those those unmet housing goals. So, it's frustrating >> in that particular scenario. The conversion of um non-residential buildings to residential, it doesn't wave any of the other building code requirements or structural code requirements which tend to be as ownorous, if not more ownorous than land use requirements.
>> Thank you, Council Cunningham.
Bringing us back to trees.
>> Okay.
>> My input on that and then I'll yield to you in a second if I can. Okay. Um, and maybe I missed it. A focus on native trees >> seems to me important.
I think that a lot of my neighborhood, uh, the native tree was planted by the prior owner of my house, for example, and the tree that was put in based on city requirements was a non-native maple tree. Um, the other thing that I know both and I'm just observing what's happened in Mory's Landing especially, but where these trees are placed in relationship to the sidewalks results in sidewalks deteriorating a lot quicker and being a hazard to uh residents and if I remember correctly, it's the resident that has to replace the sidewalk, I believe. Right.
>> So, to me, that's a problem. Uh and uh so those are things I would consider.
I'm for traffic studies and community developments. So I disagree with that being removed. I was on the DRB when it became very important concerning a community that was getting an increase of traffic. So I personally have a problem with that. I concur with councelor Cunningham's comments that we have some things that are deteriorating uh local control from the legislature and the governor that if we don't follow the rules we end up losing funding um in other parts. So it's kind of like we're held hostage in many respects. So with that um councelor Skull >> just two quick questions. Uh could you define allowances for child care homes and centers? Uh I was under the impression that uh they were already permitted in these areas and there's a lot of child care homes throughout the communities here that are actually licensed uh personal homes are licensed for child care activities. So is there specific definition for that?
>> There is a definition of what qualifies in OS. I don't have it in front of me, but essentially, you're correct. Um, they have been allowed.
This is one of those situations where because the code doesn't speak to it.
It's one of those things that staff has had to track when we get these applications in because we just because it's not in our development code doesn't mean we can disallow it, but it's more that the development code doesn't provide us with guidance that those uses are allowed in those locations. And so we've been applying statute in those situations directly. Uh so we you know would like to just codify it to be consistent with what the state is requiring here. Uh there are some minor changes that have been made that expand upon child care centers versus family child care homes. Uh which I think the family child care home is maybe what you've been seeing more of in the neighborhood context. And so, uh, making sure that those changes that have been most recently adopted in statute are included in what we're putting in the development code, uh, will be important as well. So, >> okay. The [clears throat] reason why I ask is I my business takes me into a lot of these daycare homes and, uh, and child care homes and for inspections and all that. I see and I check for state licenses, but I don't check for local or community licenses or or approvals or anything of that sort. they're not required to show that. So I'd be curious about how that's going to be managed.
>> So essentially if they have to come in for a building permit, it's like any other outright allowed use. So the corollary being a single family home essentially the family child care home.
Uh what statute tells us is that this is also allowed and it's allowed u just like you would allow a single family home. And so what happens is when when the building division intakes an application for any sort of interior work or anything that might be um happening to allow for that uh planning staff will get a chance to review and sign off but there isn't necessarily a land use process that that applicant would have to go through.
>> Okay. Thank you. Uh last thing uh circling back to the trees uh I if there's any activity that's probably primarily for Kim if there's any activity of of working together on that tree process I would like to volunteer for that uh in our HOA I think I've got one of every condition that you know blocking visual you know to for traffic uh sidewalks uh you know house interference uh and uh so I'd like to I'd like to work on that with you.
>> Great. Thank you.
>> Thank you, >> Councelor Cunningham.
>> Yeah. Back to the trees. Um I support uh what councelor Skull and Mayor O'Neal said about the types of trees that we're looking at. Um I have had some conversations with some citizens as well who have had damage to their their homes, the structures, sidewalks, all those things. And uh a lot of times in those discussion it's it's because the wrong kinds of trees are being planted. So I think anything we can do to have have more focus [clears throat] on proper setbacks um uh putting the right trees next to sidewalks that aren't going to push them up are going to grow those roots down not out and up. Um anything we can do there because that becomes extremely expensive for uh our citizens. Uh we have our sidewalk fund where we try to help out as a city. But you know uh recently we decided to kind of piggy back our graffiti uh enforcement and uh proactive or I guess reactive uh reward work with that. Uh so anything we can do to to just work smarter and not harder on u the right trees in the right places um I would be in support of that because it gets very expensive and I'm sure that 60 or 70 foot tree in the HOA is not going to be cheap to have to deal with when it needs to come down. So >> thank you.
>> Thank you.
>> I think you got our input on the tree part.
>> Yeah.
>> I think so. Uh we will report back later [clears throat] uh this fall uh if we have any follow-up questions and we'll bring forward draft code edits at that point. So thank you.
>> Thank you.
>> Thank you.
>> Okay. Next up is the Town Center Development District, excuse me, district ballot title and polling results.
>> Okay, mayor. Um I'm gonna I'm gonna start this one. um just kind of kick it off and then I'll turn it over to our consultant. This is actually a two-part item for you. We're going to talk about the results of the recent polling that was done for uh for town center. And then we're going to talk about the ballot title for a town center development district. That's why you see city attorney uh Guile Henman on uh Zoom right now. Shu will talk about that piece of it. And then as folks are kind of getting set up here um let me just kick off the conversation about the about the polling. So in June uh right um communications did a polling of the community to give information about um town center and this is really just a data point for you one of many data points that you will get uh as you decide if you're going to put uh urban renewal on the ballot this November.
Tonight, the consultants are going to walk through with you what the results were of that polling. Uh you in your packet was a uh copy of a presentation as well as some of the results. So you have that with you. And then with that, I'm going to turn it over to uh to the folks from uh Wright public affairs and they will um I think take it from take it from there. And so this is I think Jeremy's going to start us off.
>> Yeah. Hey, can everyone hear me? Okay.
>> Yes. Thank you. Great. Uh thanks for having me. Sorry I couldn't be there in person. Uh other side of the country right now. Um uh tonight I'm going to briefly talk walk through a little bit of the mechanics of why we poll. It's always good to uh level set a little bit about our uh you know the the purpose of this and I'm hand it over to Maggie from from Panken Research Strategies uh who will uh there in the room walk through the the actual results. Um, again, Jeremy, right? Right. Public affairs. We work with uh cities and counties and school districts and community colleges and anyone who's interested in uh understanding the perceptions of their community, understanding uh how they feel about possible issuances of bonds and levies, and then figuring out what makes the most sense to uh go out and place on the ballot. Uh our work here has been with uh producing the information you're going to see tonight.
So, why do we pull? Um, we pull because, you know, polling is a scientific way to provide you with statistically accurate data that allows you to sift fact from fiction and make smart strategic policy decisions. Um and you know what oftenimes happens is that you know we when we're engaged in public policy um that you know the you know the loudest voices in the room sometimes dictate or the ones who show up at meetings or whoever uh are the ones who dictate policy because they're the ones who are are there um or who have provided comment or show up at a a community meeting. And what polling allows you to do is get a understanding of your uh community at large in a scientific way that um reflects the the the the everyone who um is part of uh the Wilsonville city of Wilsonville voting district. Next slide.
So what are the basics of polling? It's a quantitative versus qualitative which really means um and I believe there's another slide on this next slide. um which really means that you know there's kind of there's many different ways we gather opinion uh as um public agencies uh the one on the right is the qualitative the feeling ones which are things that I call the opt-in these are the things that whether it's you know you send out a community survey uh send out a web survey you're asking parents to get involved in a school or PTA thing or you ask staff to be involved or folks come to a city council or board and they testify or you have online feedback back or you have a community neighborhood association meeting. All those things are what we call qualitative stuff uh uh input and they're very valuable. They're very important because that stuff is allows us to begin to understand where your community is at what the loud what the you know the general zeitgeist is so to speak which then allows us to do the quantitative which is the polling we're going to present tonight which is the facts and what does that look like? Um we want a verified sample of voters. So, we're saying, okay, if we're looking at a November 2026 election, who's going to be, you know, oh, let's talk to folks who are actually going to be likely voting. We want to make sure that that group of voters, and I'll talk a little bit about the process, looks like your target election. We do a statistical sample. Um, and so that's a random sample of the folks that we're calling.
Uh, and then we make sure that there we know a margin of error. So, again, uh, understanding that we have enough folks who responded to have a good margin of error. So you have good data. Um and you and you do calling not through hey I want to take a web survey but uh actual reaching out to people through live callers or text to web um which is uh we did live callers in this case. Next slide. Um always say this polls are a snapshot in time. Very often what people do uh unfortunately is take something they saw six months ago and say well the poll said this. Um, and so what you're seeing tonight is where the people uh the city of the residents of the city of Wilsonville uh were at the time of us taking this poll. Now polls can be helpful in telling us, okay, where do we need to go? If we give people information, if they learn about this, do does that change their mind. That type of stuff is excellent to use polling for in terms of understanding where people move, but they are they are a snapshot of where your voters are at the time we did the poll. They're not going to predict exactly what will happen when any given election.
Finally, next slide. How do we poll? And then I'll hand this over to Maggie. Um just because this helps answer questions we always get. Uh we get a list of every voter in the district. So this a voter file which is you know Clackens County elections there. Um then we look at the target election date and say okay in this case we were saying what does a November 2026 electorate look like?
meaning the circle of people who are actually going to vote which is smaller than the total circle of people in your community uh and in total registered and then the people who are going to vote in one specific election. Um, so we create that universe to say, "Okay, what is, you know, who's November 2026? What does that look like?" And Maggie will talk about that in a minute. And then we randomly call and text them until we keep it takes a lot of calls these days, get people to answer the phone, but we do. And out of that, we stop calling. In this case, we had a 400 sample. Um, and so people go 400, that's how how does that work? And that actually when you do the math on it and the work that Maggie and her team does and the Pankan research folks do behind on you know it gives us a margin of error less than five five points 5%. So uh we're able to accurately re you weight those that number to reflect your entire you know community and then we make sure that that uh that universe is reflective of what we think the November election is going to look like and then we analyze and report the data and that's what we're going to report tonight. Um when you do polling you get these huge reams of data and then we have to synthesize it up um into something that's digestible. So wanted to start with that as a level set. Um happy any qu answer any questions about like methodology or purpose or just go ahead and let Maggie uh do the presentation on results.
>> You can go ahead.
>> Great. Thanks Jeremy. All right. So again I'm Maggie Simich. I'm from the firm particular research strategies.
We're a public opinion research firm that does, as Jeremy noted, lots of research for local municipalities, community colleges, school districts, um, all sorts of, uh, local jurisdictions.
Um, as Jeremy noted, um, our methodology was a survey of N equals 400 likely voters within the city of Wilsonville.
Um, we used, uh, professional interviewers, um, to both cell phones and landlines. Um, we used a v voter file based sample and then we used both quotas and weights to reflect a likely November 2026 electorate. Um, we were in the field June 16th through the 18th of 2026. The margin of error is going to be plus or minus 4.9 percentage points at the 95% level of confidence. Um, we also have an arbitrary break at age 50 in terms of how we think of uh sort of younger versus older voters. And then um because of rounding, it's occasionally [clears throat] the case that things don't sum precisely to 100%.
So starting out just a little bit on the district voter demographics just to give a sense of what uh Jeremy was talking about about the difference between a likely November 2026 electorate and just sort of the general population um of registered voters within the city of Wilsonville. Um just to give give a sense of that. And the the main thing I would flag so we use we use historical data to determine what this likely November 2026 electorate looks like. We have historical turnout information. We have sort of individual level past participation in elections. Um, and we use that to develop um, who's likely to turn out in a midterm general election in Oregon. Um, the main thing I would flag about the difference between a likely November 2026 voter and sort of the total voter population in the city of Wilsonville is that the likely November 2026 uh, population trends a little bit older. So on the population as a whole, you have 49% who are over the age of 50. When you look at a lengthy November 2026 electorate, that's 62% who over the age of 50. And similarly, you have a lot more seniors over age 70. So, as opposed to 22% of the general registered voter population, they make 30% of the likely November 2026 electorate. Um, the other piece that I'll emphasize in terms of where there's a difference in terms of these two data sets is in terms of partisan registration on the file. Um, the likely November 2026 electorate is just a bit more partisan in general. also have fewer of these non-affiliated independent voters um and comparatively more registered Democrats and Republicans, which makes sense for a a partisan election.
All right, so where we start? Um we asked a question about the trajectory of uh the city of Wilsonville. So generally speaking, do you think things in the city of Wilsonville are headed in the right direction or do you feel things have gotten pretty seriously off on the wrong track? And voters are divided. Um so 45% say that they say the city's on in the right direct going the right direction. 453% say that it's going the wrong track. Um as Jeremy noted the the margin of error is plus or minus 4.9 percentage points. So that is statistically even in terms of the number who feel that the city's headed in the right direction versus the wrong track.
We then tested um sort of mocked up ballot language. Um this is best practice for these types of uh ballot initiatives. This is the one piece of information that we know that every voter is actually going to get, which is the the exact wording that's printed on their ballot. So, we said, "This November, a measure may appear on your ballot for the city of Wilsonville." The measure reads, "Vote to create an urban renewal uh district in Town Center.
Should the district adopt proposed ordinance number 905 establishing an urban renewal district to address blight in Town Center? Now, election today, would you vote yes or no? Um, we start with a plurality in support of the urban renewal district. 45% of voters start out voting yes, 36% voting no, 20% undecided. Um the intensity of feeling is fairly weak um with uh with only 18% saying that they feel that way strongly in either direction. So 18% say that they're voting yes strongly, 18% saying that they're voting no strongly. When you sort of sum up the folks who have not strong opinions or undecided, there are sort of a lot of empty empty heads um that need filling. folks folks don't have super strong perceptions either way um as a starting point on the urban renewal district.
There we go. We then tested um individual projects that could be a part of a urban renewal um battle measure. So next is a list of potential projects that we could be funded if this measure were to pass. And we look at the top tier. These these uh items on this slide are sort of the top tier based on the total percent who say that they favor those project as well as the percentage that say that they favor those projects strongly. Um at the top of the list is constructing a gathering space and parking garage um as well as limiting building height to uh prevent any construction beyond five stories.
We then have sort of the middle tier of projects which still get to a pretty high percentage of voters who say that they favor them overall. You know, you see from a lot of these you have majority um support um with intensity of feeling right around a quarter or more.
That middle tier tier projects includes creating a food cart and small business incentive program. Um addressing blight and Wilsonville town center, constructing a transit hub, um sort of infrastructure, so roads, sewers, sidewalks, and water lines. And then constructing mixeduse buildings with apartments and condominiums condominiums on the upper levels for individuals, families, and seniors.
All right. So, now diving into the town center development specifically.
Um, we had sort of a a few ways that we uh tested the the popularity of the Wilson Town Center plan specifically and then Uber urban renewal districts more broadly. Um, in terms of the W Wilsonville Town Center plan, we asked favorability on the plan itself. Um, it got to um 39% who say they have a favorable perception of Wilsonville Town Center. Um on the other side you have uh just over um 32% who say that they have an unfavorable perception. Um you have 17% who say they have a neutral perception and then 12% who say that they've never heard. Um so a plurality having favorable impressions sort of off the bat of the Wilsonville Town Center plan. Interestingly we then asked a question. So this is after we had asked ballot language um sort of explaining a little bit more about what exactly an urban renewal district is. So, some cities in Oregon create districts to help pay for infrastructure and public improvement in areas planned for future development without increasing local property tax rates. In Wilsonville, this type of tool could be used to help fund roads, sidewalks, utilities, public gathering spaces, and other improvements needed to support the city's Wilsonville Town Center plan. Knowing this, do you support or oppose using this type of district to pay for improvements in the city of Wilsonville without raising taxes?
That question gets to 52% who say that they are supportive of that and 27% who say that they oppose it. I want to note that the percentage who support that is higher than the number who initially start out voting yes on the urban renewal ballot measure. Um what that tells us is that voters don't intuitively know what an urban renewal ballot measure is without a little bit of explaining. Um so just the ballot language alone that's on the ballot doesn't really give voters all of the information they need. When they learn just a little bit more sort of like in English explanation of what a urban renewal district could do in Wilsonville. Um you see an increase of about 10 points. um over the where folks start.
Um we also asked a question about how much folks know about the Wilsonville Town Center plan. Um and there's a pretty high level of awareness. Um you have 57% of voters who say that they know either a lot or at least some um about that plan, 34% who say they know not too much and just 7% who say that they haven't heard anything at all. Um overall that's a pretty high level awareness about something like this.
We then um did an exercise where we asked folks sort of how they would which name resonated the most in terms of how they would describe the town center plan. And the one that comes out on top is the town center development district.
Um in the middle tier you kind of have urban renewal district or the Wilsonville economic improvement district. We also tested Wilsonville Community Investment District, the Gateway District, Community Investment Area. So, um really the town center development district is one that makes most intuitive sense to to um respondents.
We then tested a series of um specifics um including both arguments sort of in support of and in opposition to a potential urban renewal measure um and sort of key takeaways from that exercise. Um it was really clear we had sort of like multiple data points throughout that sort of supported these um first what Wilsonville residents want from a town center development district.
These items are rankordered based on their priorities. Um, they want a downtown plaza or gathering space. They want a food court or small business incentive program. They want more jobs and increased uh property values. They want a parking garage that helps alleviate street parking. They want to address blight. And they want to create a transit hub. Um, what they do not want is large apartment buildings. Um, a plan that increases taxes, a plan that impacts schools specifically in terms of their funding. and then apartment buildings over five stories tall.
With that, happy to take any questions about this polling.
>> Council any questions?
>> I think you're off the hook.
>> Oh, I take that back. City Council President Barry, >> I don't really have questions. It was a lot of data and I think uh what was stressed at the beginning of the report is that this data reflects one point in time. Um I find it really helpful. I really appreciate it. I think um finding out that people prefer to call it a um actually I probably need to see the slide but the town center development um area or district u came out on top and um that people want to address the blight and see gathering places and um I think that reflects what I've been hearing from the public. So I appreciate having a poll that is statistically sound. Thank you for one point in time.
>> Councelor Skull, >> just one question regarding the uh let's see there's seven options to name this project. Uh what are the how did the how were the names generated?
Um those were just sort of brainstorming with the with uh folks on city staff um knowledge from sort of other urban renewal districts and how they're titled. So for example the you know gateway district is a you know something that we saw in in other parts of the metro area. Um so based on either where we've seen other cities how they've we've seen them refer to urban renewal districts or just sort of general uh ideas. So in terms of when you were questioning the respondents, uh the question was based around if you had the choice to name this, which one would you pick?
>> That's a great question. Okay. Sorry, I misunderstood your initial question. Um we include we had a list of these options and then we asked which are the two that they thought were the most descriptive that they sort of felt resonated the most based on what they had learned up until that point in the survey.
>> Very good. Very good. Great information.
Thank you, >> Councelor Cunningham.
Yeah, I noticed so uh can you go to that last slide that that one? Uh I noticed that our our packet is slightly different. It doesn't include the large apartment buildings in Wilsonville under do not want. So I'm wondering why there's a discrepancy between that one and our packet.
Um, where what how was how was that piece of feedback gathered? What where did that come from?
>> That's a great question. That came from the one of the items that sort of asked about limiting development to five stories uh tall um in combination with some of the uh statements for and exempts that uh showed that folks were interested in housing or at least you know uh mixeduse development. um just not necessarily over five stories tall sort of when you combine findings from those two sets of questions.
>> Okay. Um and then I noticed too that when the question was asked about the mid in the mid-tier project section, it it talked about mixeduse buildings with apartments and condominiums. Uh based on our financial feasibility study, it condominiums are virtually non-existent. Um, but I guess there's no way to discern whether or not that was the draw for people.
Is that right?
>> Yeah. Unfortunately, we're unable to sort of parse what the support is for apartments versus condominiums specifically since we mentioned both of them in tandem in that question.
>> Okay.
Um, were were any questions any was there any polling done regarding number of housing units or density of of residential?
>> That's a good question. We did um have a question that uh talked about the uh we specifically asked about sort of like large apartment whether folks wanted large apartment buildings. Um and that was something that um it looks like 25% of voters said was a very convincing reason not to support urban renewal. Um but otherwise we didn't specifically ask anything about density.
>> And then my or >> number of units, sorry.
>> Yeah. Um, and then it it lists the top tier and the mid-tier projects. Were there was there any other were there any other things that were that were asked about that aren't included in here?
>> No, the um the top tier and the mid tier were fully inclusive. There was nothing that tested below that 51% waiver.
>> That's all I have. Thanks.
>> Thank you, Councelor Chevlin.
>> Thank you. Um, I really appreciate the work on this. I appreciate the discussion between qualitative and quantitative data. Um, I have a question about whether or not you collected any anecdotal comments. Um, you there were some comments that were presented during the polling comments uh say um you know we've heard around town uh that parking may be a problem. Uh then the question was is this a very convincing or somewhat convincing or not too convincing reason to support the project? But uh I'm I'm just kind of hooking on to councelor Cunningham's questions about um density and size of buildings or some of those things. Did you were there we I didn't see any collection of anecdotal comments. Was there an opportunity for that?
>> Yes. So in this survey there was not because of the way this was set up as sort of a statistical scientific survey.
it was really limited to these sort of close-ended quantitative questions. Um, it didn't have sort of open-ended commentary in it. Um, so that's that's not sort of something that was addressed in this particular research tool.
>> Sure. Of course. Thank you.
>> Any other questions? Okay. Thank you for that piece.
What's next?
I think the next item as part of part two of this item is to talk about uh the ballot title draft ballot title language. I'm going to turn it over to uh the city attorney who is remote and I think going to take it from here.
>> Thank you, Mayor and Council. Amanda Guy Henman, city attorney. Um >> good morning. Is it is it morning?
>> Oh, it's it's well into the morning.
>> Okay.
>> It's about 3:00 a.m. here.
>> Okay.
Um Matt Lorenson should be setting up the slide deck. I can't see the um table though. So, okay. Thank you, Matt.
>> You got it.
>> Um [clears throat] so, this evening I will be uh discussing the town center development district ballot title, draft ballot title that's in the council's packet. Um and Matt's also there to assist if there's particular questions on um the draft plan that will be coming before council here shortly. Next slide.
So, by way of background, um, in 2019, as this council knows, following a community planning process, the council adopted the town center plan. In its listed economic development strategies, tax increment financing, or TIFF, was identified as one potential funding mechanism to help implement public improvements to support the vision and development of Town Center. To evaluate the feasibility of using TIFF, the city completed the Town Center urban renewal feasibility study in 2023.
That study analyzed redevelopment potential, financing capacity, and possible public investments that could be supported through a town center urban renewal area. The study ultimately informed preparation of a proposed urban renewal district that was referred to the Wilsonville voters in May of 2024.
Although the measure was not approved, the planning, financial analysis, and community engagement completed during that process provided a foundation for future consideration of a revised proposal if council so chose. So then in March 2025, the city council identified revisiting a town center urban renew renewal district through community education and outreach among its council goals. Consistent with that direction, staff conducted community outreach and updated the financial analysis and redevelopment assumptions through preparation of the 2026 Town Center urban renewal feasibility study.
And that re uh feasibility study was further updated in June of 2026. And the updated study reflects current market conditions, revised project costs, and a more conservative redevelopment scenario than previously evaluated.
So the revised proposal also incorporates previous council direction as I mentioned in June intended to better align the proposed district with community priorities that the council had heard. Included in these refinements were reduction of redevelopment assumptions and associated tax increment revenue projections, lower proposed maximum indebtedness, a shorter anticipated district duration, removal of the proposed I-5 bicycle and pedestrian bridge project. addition of economic development incentive programs supporting food carts and the recruitment and retention of small and locally owned businesses. Next slide.
So what this all leads to um what this information leads to and as a result of the May 2026 um uh initiative petition that was passed that adopted a new charter an amendment to the city charter. Um, one of the provisions that the council must undertake if it wants to refer to the voters, uh, an urban renewal district is that now we have to have a proposed ordinance for the electric to vote on. So, what staff is doing now um, that should be coming to council um, in the next couple weeks is ordinance number 905. That ordinance is set up to adopt a plan and report to establish this district for town center.
So ordinance 905 would establish the town center development district and also adopt the plan and accompanying report. However, ordinance 905 would only be considered by the council for actual adoption after a vote of the electorate to adopt the ordinance consider consistent with the charter the new charter amendment conferral with overlapping taxing districts hearings before planning commission and city council and required statutory notice.
So essentially, we're going to how because the um charter amendment requires that an ordinance be proposed to the electorate for a vote. Um that ordinance will be prepared. It will be provided to the electorate and then if the electorate adopts or approves that ordinance, we still need to go through the remaining statutory processes for for approval of that ordinance. And that's where the conferral, the hearings, and the notice come into play.
We do anticipate that the ordinance plan and report will be presented at a work session the last week of July that a special set works work session with the city council. So I will say that you're all viewing this ballot this draft ballot title somewhat in a vacuum rather than with the context of the ordinance that it's referring to in the plan and report that um where the information is coming from. So just be aware of that as we're having a discussion about the draft ballot title. Next slide.
So, ballot title is a draft ballot title or a ballot title is a requirement, a statutory requirement um under Oregon law uh to accompany any ballot measure that's being put on the ballot. And there's three main components to the ballot title. The caption, the question, and the summary. The caption is limited to 10 words, and it has to reasonably identify the subject of the measure. The question is limited to 20 words. It has to plainly phrase the chief purpose of the measure so that an affirmative response so a yes to the question corresponds to an affirmative vote on the measure. And then finally the summary is limited to 175 words. The summary must be concise and a concise and impartial statement summarizing the measure and its major effect.
The summary is different than an explanatory statement which is um a different part a different uh description of what the measure is accomplishing. That is uh limited to 500 words and not part of what is considered the ballot title.
Next slide.
So, questions for council. Understanding that um you will be looking at a draft ordinance plan and report for the work session planned for the last week of July. And I anticipate you'll probably have some more questions and updates once you're seeing the context under which the ballot title has been drafted.
Um right now, what staff is looking for are um if there's any questions, considerations, or revisions that council may want to see at this next work session along with the draft ordinance and accompanying documents.
and I will turn it over back to the mayor. Thanks, >> Councelor Cunningham.
>> Yeah, I had a question about the the wording used in uh both the caption and the question and the summary, I guess, of Wilsonville Town Center Development District. If I remember correctly, when we've put similar things to the voters in the past requesting approval for uh funding of TIF, uh we've used the words urban renewal and I'm wondering why this language change has occurred in this ballot title.
>> Yeah, that's a great question. So, um we've done both. So, if you're familiar with the win program, the win program when it was um the ballot title for it, it was called the business incentive program for investment and job creation by manufacturers as an example. So, we've done it um both ways. However, the difference here compared to what we've done before is the fact that we are putting forward an ordinance. We've never had we've never been in a situation where we're putting forward an ordinance and a plan. Um what we've done before is con having voters do an advisory vote on a con concept of developing a plan and report in a district. So here what we're doing is we are trying to match the language that voters will see assuming that that's how council wants them to be drafted that voters will see in the ordinance plan and report. So the language is trying to match those two things for consistency and not to confuse them. um we struggle ourselves in what we're in and referring to the town center plan versus the town center district and the plan that is going with that. And so we're trying to create make sure that we're being very consistent with our language. But at the end of the day, it's council's prerogative um what language you use in the ordinance plan report and the ballot title.
>> I So I don't recall ever hearing it referred to as a Wilsonville Town Center Development District before just the last several until this I saw this packet it that's that's the language that matches the the polling is does that the polling have anything to do with it?
>> So what we took from the polling is that that's how that's how our electorate understood or best understand what this is trying to do. So again, we're trying to limit the confusion around what this is >> and it's not to stay away from the words urban renewal.
>> That's not our intention. And so, but it is council's prerogative. If that's how you want if if that's a suggestion that council would like to see a revision to include that language or change that language, we can make that change. to to me it feels like that's what it's been colloquially referred to in our community and that's what people know this funding mechanism as. So I think that would be the most accurate thing to ensure that our community is getting the um you know straight shot from us on that.
I'll add briefly that um the plan document itself, which as um Amanda noted, you haven't seen yet, uh it reads the town center development district plan, subtitle, an urban renewal plan of the city of Wilsonville, Oregon. Um that's just a consideration, not necessarily a rebuttal to what you're saying.
>> Yeah. Yeah. And I guess thinking about that there's probably not a ton of people who are going to go very very much further past just this ballot title. And uh I'm not sure that we're going to get as much understanding about what they're looking at or what they're voting on uh with this change in language from what was used two and a half years ago and has been the conversation in the community for a long time around Town Center.
Yeah, that's and one thing I will note, councelor Cunningham, to your point, one thing that we have talked internally about a potential um revision that we may be bringing in at the end of July is actually adding um we'll have to change the word count because we'll go over otherwise, but is to add a web web page that will have all the information available. Yes, it will require voters to have to go outside of the voter pamphlet, but making it um very clear where the information on the ordinance plan and report can be easily found on a web page.
>> Okay, Councelor Chevlin, >> thank you. Um I respectfully have a different opinion than councelor Cunningham about the wording. I personally like the town center development district. Uh if the in if if the intent is to be clear about what we're trying to do and not hide away from urban renewal when we know that urban renewal those terms itself they're hard to grasp. Even the polling uh uh showed that and then when it was explained a little bit further then people were more likely to support um the project. So, I feel that um calling it what it is that we're developing the district and this is a plan to develop the town center district and then if there is a way though I I don't disagree with if there's a way to to fit into the word count and say what I believe Mr. Laorenzan just said that um it would be a urban renewal plan of some sort. Um we need to be transparent.
There's no question about that. But um I still believe that the intent of the project is to develop the district and if we use the language that the polling uh the member the citizens that were pled that said, "Oh yeah, I like that one uh more than the other five or six or seven uh that were offered that u I I believe that that is a reflection of what our citizens uh that were pulled felt like the wording represented the project. Thank you.
Councelor Skull, >> I [clears throat] would agree with Councelor Chevlin. Um I have no problem with the Wilsonville Town Center Development District in and in certain terms. Um I'm sure that once we get the uh the full text of the the package uh TIFF or urban renewal we mentioned throughout that package in certain places and everything. And the other thing I would like to touch on is right now in since 2019, Town Center has been a plan and hopefully when we get past this vote, uh if it's approved, then we turned into it turns into a town center development district. So it matures in the process as that uh as we continue down that path of approval and uh it becomes a district and then can be uh developed per the plan. So uh I don't have a problem with this. Thank you, >> Council President Barry.
>> Um, I also agree. I I like that um we're really working hard to make things really clear and easy for the lay person and our voters to understand and that the simpler uh that we can make it and if we can have links I think Amanda you were mentioning that maybe there would be a link for additional information that the U voter can refer to. I think that's a really great idea. Um, but I like the title, the district. Um, especially now that we had the results from the poll and we had a favorable results from the people that were talked to that represent the uh voters in Wilsonville.
>> Okay. And can I just clarify one thing and um you know I'm not the pollster at this but the question that was specifically asked was indicating which um which they which the person being um questioned what was the best way to describe the district. So it wasn't necessarily oh I like this term. It was how did they from their understanding of what was described which word best describes it. So again, kind of getting to that point of we want to be very clear and precise with our language um because it is a very confusing topic.
Anybody else? Okay. I'll just add from my perspective, I concur with councelor Chevlin's comments. I think if we can fit urban renewal in that word count as councelor Chevvin was suggesting is a possibility. I'm very much open to that.
I do like the title.
Thank you. Anybody else?
Okay. Thank you.
So what what's next after the city attorney on this project?
So I think that um and Gina can correct me but I believe that we are planning a special set work session the last week of July where you will see then a full draft packet of the ballot title to ensure with the ordinance plan and report as drafted to see if there's changes that you want to see to the ordinance plan and report and correspondingly to the ballot title and based on your feedback tonight I will work up some additional changes.
>> Okay. Well, thank you.
>> Thank you.
>> Okay. With that, is there anything else on the town center tonight? Okay. Uh the work session is adjourned at 6:10 p.m.
will resume at 7 pm.

I I hope you've all been enjoying your summer and I hope you enjoy the World Cup final if you're like our family. Uh it was an enjoyable long game. Uh this is our first regular city council meeting in several weeks. Uh while council's held a few special meetings to address timesensitive matters, we did not have a regular meeting earlier this month because of the Independence Day holiday.
It's been a busy few weeks on the mayor front. Uh but rather than take council's time this evening, I'll be submitting my written mayor business report to the city recorder at the conclusion of tonight's meeting as part of the official record, which anybody can take a look at if they're interested. Our next regular city council meeting will be held on Monday, August 3rd, beginning at 700 p.m.
Next, under uh mayor's business, we turn to uh the city attorney, Amanda Gal himman's employment agreement.
Before we take up this item, I want to thank the city attorney, Amanda Galman.
Amanda has consistently served this council and our community with professionalism, integrity, and sound legal judgment. I appreciate her willingness to work collaboratively throughout this process and the thoughtful approach she brought to these negotiations.
Councelor Cunningham and I represented the council during the negotiations.
From my perspective, the discussions were productive, respectful, and focused on reaching a fair agreement. I also want to thank councelor Cunningham for his time, preparation, thoughtful participation throughout the process.
What is before council this evening is the final agreement that was a result of those negotiations.
Um, councelor Cunningham, uh, would you like to offer any comments at this time or do you want to reserve them later?
>> No, I was just going to, uh, mirror your comments. Uh, I think that our city attorney does a fantastic job.
She works very hard and uh I think our discussions with her and our work together on this were very good. So appreciate the the effort put together.
>> Thank you. Uh with that uh councelor is is councelor Cunningham. Can I have a motion to adopt city attorney managment agreement?

>> Perfect. Thank you so much. Uh good evening, city council uh and counselors uh and mayor. Uh my name is Ryan Sher.
I'm with Schnitzer Properties. Um I'm reaching out this evening in regards to the Basalt Creek master plan um which is currently going through uh its process through planning commission and uh I understand in a few uh weeks uh there will be a work session and a hearing uh in before city council. Uh the reason why I'm here tonight is to uh address our concerns with the uh current development standards that are being proposed and to request um either a working group uh comprised of industrial um operators and companies and industrial brokers and developers uh to help improve the development standards. so that those standards do not hinder development as our um analysis uh that we attached uh from Johnson economics uh clearly outlines uh what the impacts would be uh to future tax revenue if the current development standards were to be uh adopted. Um so again uh it would be great if there was a working group and we took more time and didn't rush into uh the hearings and the work sessions and um develop a code that um uh industrial operators could uh actually uh have a functional site um as well as uh industrial owners can own for the long term and for the success of Salt Creek which also these standards will apply to future or to the existing Coffee Creek as well. Um and yeah, that's our request. Uh if we could do a working group. If not, we would uh also uh the second ask would be to have uh multiple work sessions and more time at the work sessions beyond three minutes to uh talk about some of the uh intricate uh details uh behind industrial. We understand industrial um is unique and um there's a lot of times some reasoning and education behind some of the things and the reasons why uh they are designed and developed the way they are. Um and uh that's it for me.
Thank you. And um I appreciate you um taking the time.
>> Thank you very much.
Uh next, Eric Winters.
Good evening, mayor, counselors. My name is Eric Winters. I've lived in Wilsonville for 21 years and my address is on file. I want to talk about the draft ballot title presented in work session. A ballot title for a city measure is supposed to describe a legislative act. You begin with a proposed ordinance. You identify its subject. Uh you determine what it will do and then you summarize its effects.
That's the sequence. The ordinance comes first. The description follows. That's not what happened here. The proposed ordinance has not been released. The public has not seen it. There is no proposed legislative act for this title to describe. So what was the title derived from if not the ordinance? The answer is clear because the staff report told us the city paid for a political poll.
That poll was completed a month ago and only released to the public today.
This was not a survey of what all the residents think. Anyone who said they weren't planning to vote in November was dumped from the poll. The people surveyed were sorted by party and then messaging was tested on them. This is not how a city communicates with its community. It's how a campaign finds voters it needs and learns what it needs to say to move them. It tested voter support at the start and at the end and measured how many points certain messages moved it. It tested six names for the district and reported which tested best. It tested arguments for and against and scored each for how convincing it was. That is not research into what an ordinance does. It is research into what sells it.
And you can re see the result in all of this by what the title leaves out. It doesn't even tell voters it is urban renewal. We just had a big election about urban renewal. Why? Because development district apparently pulled better even though it's not a term used under Oregon law. This proposal does not even identify that it involves public debt, much less that this debt financing won't pencil out without the construction of thousands of new apartments. Traffic is not in the title. The effect of the fire district, police, and public schools is never mentioned. The poll told you all of these are strong community concerns, but they were skipped over. The information voters are worried about is what the information is the information that the title omits and that's not an accident of drafting. That is what happens when you write a title to persuade instead of to inform.
In May, 58% of the city passed the right to vote. And that came after a loud, expensive fight over a simple question.
Who gets to decide whether Wilsonville takes on urban renewal? After a fight like that, the staff should be bending over backward to give voters a fair process. Instead, it used public resources, our tax dollars, to test which words work best and built the title around the answers. That is the city putting its thumb on the scale in this election. It's regard it's wrong regardless of what you think of Town Center. I'm not asking you to oppose Town Center tonight. I'm just asking you to take your thumb off the scale. Finish the ordinance. Direct the city attorney to write a title that describes what it does. Keep politics out of the process.
If you want to describe the parts that pull well, then also describe the parts that pull badly. If the plan is sound, it will survive an honest description.
Thank you.
>> Thank you.
Tristan Roland I'll start by Oh, my name's Tristan Roland. Address is on file. Um, I'll start by correcting Eric Winters when he says correction or 58% of the city voted for it was 58% of the people who voted in that election which was a small fraction of the city. So, um, I'm here to talk about what I think is the greatest threat to Wilsonville and it's actually a group of people in the city.
Um, unlike them, um, I will be specific about who they are. Um, there are people like Kristen Roach, um, who if she uses my testimony online, I'll be I'll wear it as a badge of honor. Thank you. And, uh, Eric Winters, Doris Wher, Adam Cunningham, Cunningham, you guys know the list goes on. Um, and I'm calling on people to take them seriously when they say the things they say. Um, for Council Cunningham, I would encourage people to watch his YouTube channels, The Cover Officer and Officer Blue Gun. They're very enlightening and pretty shocking personally. Um, use all the time. these people. If you are a single mom, if you like to ride buses, if you live in low-income housing, if you live off of food stamps, they're coming after you. They've proven themselves that they're going to come after you.
And um I I have had it with this group and I have had it with people who want to capitulate to them and just uh compromise and you know whatever I it is time to fight. We have to fight because in in this next election we cannot afford to do anything but win. Thank you >> Moren Jackson.
>> I'm sorry. I'm here forisco.
>> Ah okay. Well say okay.
>> [clears throat] >> Thank you for letting us know you're there, but you didn't have to fill that out. All right, Elizabeth Peters.
Thank you, Mayor and Council. My name is Elizabeth Peters and my address is on file.
I watched the work session today where you talked about ballot title language for the town center plan and I have a question I would love to get an answer maybe by email later or whatever works for you. How much public money was spent on this poll?
A poll that informs staff what language to use to sell this plan to the voters.
That just feels wrong to me. It feels dishonest and a poor use of our tax dollars. I'm disappointed. I think you can do better and I think the voters deserve better. Thank you.
>> Thank you, >> Becky Fromheart.
My name is Becky from I don't think my address is on file. 7399 Southwest Woodbury Loop.
>> You can say it's on the card. That's okay.
>> Okay.
>> Thank you.
>> Um my main question is why are we voting on an urban renewal in November anyway?
because I thought that there was something that was decided upon in 2019 and I I'm not this might be like an innocent uneducated question, but I just don't understand why we're voting on an urban renewal district whether the wording is that this or that. Thank you.
>> Thank you.
Is that it everybody?
>> Okay, now turning to councelor comments, liaison reports and meeting announcements.
>> Council President Barry.
>> So again, thank you everybody for taking your time to come to city hall to give your testimony and to listen to what the city council is working on. Uh right now um I don't have too much to say. I do want to point out that part of our city council packet is once a month the city manager provides reports from each department head and I find these reports to be really useful and um because I've volunteered for the library that one always has a place in my heart. So, in this month's uh report for the library, just want to point out that we had a um staff librarian, Greg Martin, who's worked for the city for over 25 years, uh recently retire in June. And um in the article, and I would agree that he was much loved by the patrons and the staff alike. He had dedication, compassion, and a fense sense of whimsy.
Um he was known for consistently going above and beyond to help those in need.
And uh to me what is being said about Greg also reflects what I think of as so many of our uh staff people here at the city. We have really dedicated, hardworking, professional staff and I just would like to acknowledge that and say thank you.
>> Thank you councelor Cunningham.
>> Yeah. Yeah, I'd like to thank everyone for coming this evening, spending their time with us. Um, to go through some of that citizen input, um, Mr. Sherah provided uh Johnson economics report to council uh which it appears to show that um the typical flex industrial site plan that Schnitzer I guess is uh accustomed to kind of building um it looks a lot like the recent industrial development in Sherwood.
uh it compares that with our local standards and it shows a nearly a 50% reduction in assessed value using our standards. Um this is a second Johnson economics study that has been presented to this council in the last month or so and both of them are showing that our city code uh continues to be a hindrance for developers and continues to make things unworkable.
Um Mr. Sherah, I I know that he and some others came to the planning commission meeting recently and um they were afforded three minute opportunities to speak at the podium during citizen input. It's not a real effective way to have a conversation with the city and that's concerning to me because here we have a developer that has aggregated almost 50 acres of property in the Basalt Creek area. they can be a huge huge boon to development uh to kicking off an urban renewal district in Basalt Creek to um adding to that urban uh renewal tax increment financing uh with with kind of a a job ready situation up there and they're here in front of us in three-minute increments.
Um, West Hills came and has had two meetings with us, the opportunity to communicate. Um, and I really hope that u Schnitzer is offered the same opportunity to come given that they're the largest landholder in in our plan Balt Creek area. So, I hope that we can find a way to have better conversations with them going forward because this uh Johnson Economics uh report that they sent us uh is pretty enlightening.
Um, [clears throat] besides that, uh, I I'll go ahead and, uh, reserve the rest of my comments.
That's all I have.
>> You're reserving to come back or >> No, no, I'm I'm I'm finished.
>> Sounds good. Thank you, Councelor Chevlin.
>> Thank you everyone for being uh at the council meeting this evening. I'm sorry I'm not with you. So, thank you for accommodating my my uh digital presence.
Um, of particular interest um that I of a meeting that I attended this uh past week was a group by the Friends of French Prairie. Uh this is a group I'll remind everyone uh that the city of Wilsonville is uh also represented uh in this group and I um hold the honor of representing our city. This group of cities are um cities that are south of the Wamtt River in the French Prairie area which includes Wilsonville as being at the very northern end of the French prairie. The other cities are such as can be Woodburn, Donald and Aurora. Uh so this time we had a presentation and a discussion about the um emerald ashbor bore which our city has been or city council has been educated on before but this is a quite an uh infestation of um of this insect that is killing the ash trees and it's killed hundreds of millions of ash trees in the eastern part of the United States and is definitely making its way uh toward uh in the west now and on the west coast.
Uh recently the ashbor has been found in uh the cities of Twolitin and Newberg and Silverton. So it's creeping around us. And most recently uh this was part of our discussion at the meeting last week that I attended. uh Woodburn uh was found to have 40 uh trees that were 40 ash trees that were basically killed had to be removed by the emerald ashbor. Uh there was a representative at the presentation from the Oregon Department of Forestry and also the Woodburn U special projects manager Renado Wakeley.
Um and of particular interest uh Miss Miss Wakeley um um made a point of how important it is for city council to be aware of the financial impacts should the um ash emerald ash border be found in one city um because of the expense of having to remove the trees and having to replace the trees. There are a lot of restrictions around how those trees the uh timber from the trees once they're just uh taken down, how it has to be destroyed. You can't be transporting that wood, can't be selling it for firewood, moving it around the state because of the infestation problem. So uh in our work session today we had quite a discussion about trees and putting the right tree in the right place and uh being responsible uh being a responsible tree city as Wilsonville is and u what Miss Wakeley um shared with us at the uh meeting last week was how important it is for a city to have a plan in place uh if and when the uh emerald ashbor is is discovered and then plan for the mitigation. And so there is a template that she is and I'd be happy to share that with our city staff. But um one of the things she suggested is that each city undertake a um a tree identification uh program and process so that we really know where these trees are and oftentimes that educ that uh uh identification process is on public land but not necessarily on private land. So, also educating folks that may have these ash trees on their property and to know that they um could be at risk for the infestation. So, the whole key on the education was to slow the spread.
There's ways to do that by identifying uh trees and which ones would be at risk to educate our citizens and then to have a plan in place with our staff and then also for city council to be aware of the potential financial impact should we have an infestation. So that's all I have but I thought it was of particular interest and wanted to share this evening. Thank you very much.
>> Thank you councelor Skull.
[clears throat] >> Okay. during the last couple well uh my meeting notice past meeting notices uh or meeting activity is on file uh along with my uh future meeting uh was with the city recorder uh did participate in the Korean uh war memorial ceremony or attended it and everything and it was a great ceremony. The uh uh mayor spoke and along with a cast of others and there was a lot of good stories and it was a very emotional event. I wanted to mention something that as I looked across the audience, it was impossible not to recognize that uh for future gener uh you know that uh there's a lasting legacy that have left for future generations. And as I looked across the audience, it was impossible not to recognize within the next several years many of these veterans will no longer be with us. Uh that reality made the ceremony especially meaningful. Uh it was a privilege to stand alongside of them uh thank them in person and honor their commitment for pres uh to preserving freedoms that we uh enjoy today. Their stories and service deserves to be remembered long after the last Korean War veteran is passed and uh making it our responsibility to ensure that their leg legacy is never forgotten. And so I hope that in coming years, you know, more of the residents uh and and people attend these uh these ceremonies to remember uh the uh the war veterans and the Korean war veterans and everything and uh make these a special special event and I feel very uh privileged and u honored to have that memorial here in Wilsonville. So that's all I have. Thank you.
>> Thank you.
See, manager Troja, if I can uh just let you know that I am also uh interested in hearing more in some way, but I need to we'll probably need the city train to weigh in on what we can hear right now. Uh with respect to sniter properties concerns and the comments to me I agree with uh councelor Cunningham that that's something the salt creek coffee creek I've been advocating at my meetings if there's something that's impacting our ability to develop that. I I don't want to overreach in areas where we have to wait until it comes to council. I'd like to have more information on that as well.
So with councelor Cunningham and I if there's a possibility at least have some further conversations with us either offline or in a future work session. So I do concur with that.
>> Yep. We can do that.
>> Okay.

So staff proceed.
>> Thank you. Let me pull up our presentation for tonight.
There we go.
All right. Thank you, Mayor Council President. Councilors, I appreciate your time this evening. My name is Chris Myers. I'm a senior planner here at the city of Wilsonville. And tonight, I'm here to talk to you. I'm bringing you ordinance number 904, Cisco Property Zone Map Amendment. Uh but [snorts] before we get into that, as required by statute, I would announce that the criteria applicable to this application are stated starting on page four of exhibit D of the packet for ordinance 904, which has been entered into the record. Copies of the report are available at the side of the room and on the city's website.
So with that, there we go.
Just to [clears throat] give you some visual context of the subject property, it's an approximately 33 acre property uh due east of Parkway Avenue and of course Interstate 5. As you can see, it's directly south of Target and Costco. And then the existing Cisco facility is due east of the subject property that we are talking about tonight.
So on June 22nd of this year, DRB panel B approved these eight requests as part of the Cisco facility expansion and master plan application. Now these are not a part of tonight's discussion. I just put them up there for reference. So you can see that the larger application or the total application is quite large with a lot of moving parts.
For tonight, we're here to discuss zone uh zone map amendment zone 25-00002.
And that is the subject property I just showed moving from future development agricultural holding as a zone to the planned development industrial regionally significant industrial area zone.
[snorts] So approving Oh, I'm sorry. And I also forgot to mention uh the same uh DRB meeting in June uh the panel be recommended that city council approve this zone map amendment.
Now approving this amendment is actually going to do two things. Number one, it's going to bring the subject property into compliance with our own comprehensive plan where this property is designated as industrial. Uh it will also the second thing it will do is it will bring this property into compliance with metro's title four map in which ca in wi where this property is zoned regionally significant industrial area. So we're basically just aligning this property with our comp plan and with metro's plan as well.
So here on the left of the screen uh are is the existing zoning today. Uh the salmon color is tax lot 1100 the subject property for tonight. Um the existing facility uh sorry Cisco's existing facility is the lighter colored blue. On the [snorts] right hand side is the proposed zoning where tax law 1100 will become that darker blue. The planned development industrial regionally significant industrial area zone.
Now this doesn't have a whole impact on tonight. I just thought I'd show you a glimpse of the future of that site if the zone amendment is approved, the zone map amendment is approved. Uh this is a rendering of the full belt buildout after two phases of construction um for the Cisco facility. And as you can see just to the left of the screen is Parkway Avenue and I5 uh just to the west of that for reference.
So staff's recommendation is to approve zone map amendment 250002 moving the subject property from future development agricultural holding to plan development industrial regionally significant industrial area. So that is the conclusion of my presentation. Just a reminder that the zone map amendment and other information can be found in exhibit D of the packet.
Excuse me. And also a reminder, the applicants uh planner is in the audience tonight um if we have any questions or um whatnot. So I will open it up for uh discussion or questions.
Council, any questions?
>> No questions of staff.
>> Excellent. Um, any questions from or excuse me, comments or input from the assistant city to the attorney?
>> No comments, mayor.
>> Okay. And the applicants here, um, does the applicant have a presentation or any comments that they would like to submit?
>> Come right up here and >> Yeah.
>> Make sure the mic's on when you >> talk there.
>> Yes. Thank you, Mayor and Council. Um, actually I don't have anything to add. I just want to thank Chris for all his work on this project. Like you said, there's a lot of moving pieces, but we're excited to get to this point where the DRB has approved the master plan expansion and then tonight's for the zoning map amendment. So, but I'm here if you have any questions.
>> Okay. Any questions for the applicant?
Okay. Thank you. Nothing further uh members of the audience who wish to speak for the application in for or against anybody.
Okay. Uh we'll need you to fill out a card. I'll give you a few minutes to to do that.
>> Can I do it after >> as long we need to have it for the Yeah, you can go ahead, Miss Wher, to do it after, but please, we need it for a record for the Thank you.
>> You're welcome.
Doris Wher. I live at 6782 Southwest Whler Way in Frog Pond. I've lived here 60 years. So, let me give you Some of you won't know the history about this piece of land.
For many years, the prior owner, Ralph Ellixson, tried to get this changed to commercial use because it faces onto the freeway.
Many suitors came calling for this piece of land. Amongst them, Cabela's, Home Depot, Lowe's, and a couple of others.
However, Metro had decided and the city agreed that this should be regionally significant industrial land and therefore they would not change the from industrial to commercial.
Therefore, it makes sense to me that Cisco adjacent to this piece of property was a reasonable solution to having this piece used for good use.
So, I support the Cisco application.
They've been a great company here in Wilsonville for many years and what they have presented is not um questionable at all. So, I just want to say I support this fully. Thank you.
>> Thank you.
And thank you for submitting a card for the records. We appreciate it. Anybody else?
Mr. I had just one question for the uh uh the city or the developer is what about the uh widening of the road because that road is narrow now >> and there's going to be a lot more traffic. I assume there's going to be uh truck traffic and things like that. So, how does that fit into it? That was my only question.
>> Sure. Uh I'm I'm happy to answer that. I just want to be clear. It is not part of the zone map amendment. This has already been approved by DRB. Having said that, park uh Parkway Avenue will get a uh a full buildout. It'll get an expanded uh rideway width uh sidewalks, bike lanes, um trees, uh a full build treatment for to accommodate the truck traffic um that we would expect to come >> and that would be before they actually construct or concurrently. So in technically yes in the road the certificate of occupancy and functionality on the site would have the buildout of the road would have to come first. However, there is an avenue by which I don't want to get too deep into it but a local improvement district could be created. We're discussing it with them in which case construction may not have to finish before they can start operations. But it is absolutely a part of the application and of their approval.
>> Yeah. Thank you. Sir, >> could you please put your name and your address on the record?
>> Oh, I'm sorry. My name is Wayne Hickey and my address is on.
He's got it. Okay, great. Thank you.
Anybody Anybody else for as proponents?
Anybody in opposition that wants to give public testimony? Okay. Do we have anybody online?
Okay.
Okay. Any further comments from staff or the applicant in light of the comments that have been made by the public?
>> Uh, no sir. I think we're good.
>> Okay. Thank you. Hearing no further questions and everyone having a testify, I hereby declare the public hearing closed at 7:45 p.m.
Um, it's now time for the council to consider ordinance number 9004 on first reading. Uh, can I have a motion?
>> I move to adopt ordinance number 9004 on first reading.
>> Is there a second?
>> Second.
>> Okay. The motion adopting ordinance 904 has been made on first reading been made by city council president Barry and seconded by councelor skull. Is there any discussion?
Okay. Hearing no further discussion. I call for a vote on ordinance number 9004 on first reading. All those in favor say I.
>> I.
>> I.
>> I.
>> Okay. Motion passes unanimously at 5.
Okay. [snorts] City manager business.
Any?
>> I have nothing this evening.
>> Okay. Any city attorney business?
>> None tonight, mayor.
>> Okay. They were adjourned a world record in my view at 7:46 Yeah.
