Laurelview, Hillsboro, Oregon, mentioned that he recently listened to Chairman Brian on radio station KUIK. He wished to address the disposition of surplus property on Tualatin Valley Highway. Mr. LaHaie wondered if a timeline exists for holding a public hearing on this matter. Chairman Brian responded that this has not been firmed up or scheduled at this time. He said the intent was for this issue to be discussed at a public meeting. Chairman Brian explained that it is a matter of practice to invite the public to comment when such interest is expressed. He stated that he has not discussed this specific item with the full Board yet. Mr. LaHaie wondered if a public notification process would precede the meeting at which this issue will be discussed. Commissioner Rogers clarified that there would be no individual notification. He recommended checking the County website, where all upcoming Board agendas are posted. Mr. LaHaie said there is considerable interest and some frustration in the community at not having an official forum for suggestions for disposing of the surplus property. Chairman Brian commented that there are other ways to address these concerns. He said he would be happy to meet with a group to talk about this issue. Commissioner Jones suggested that the public might want to organize an approach to be used during the two or ten minute oral communication opportunities at every regular Board Meeting. She felt this might be better than waiting to speak at the meeting where the final decision is made. 3. PUBLIC HEARING - LAND USE AND TRANSPORTATION 3.a. RO 99-149 Public Hearing for Renaming Certain Roads John Rosenberger recommended that the Board rename N.W. 97th Terrace as N.W. Ashcreek Lane. He explained that this would address confusion and safety issues in the neighborhood. The public hearing was opened. No public testimony was offered. The public hearing was closed. There was a motion to rename N.W. 97th Terrace as N.W. Ashcreek Lane. Motion - Jones 2nd - Duyck Vote - 4-0 4. LAND USE AND TRANSPORTATION 4.a. MO 99-344 Proposed Ballot Measure 56 Notice for Proposed Land Use Ordinance No. 541 (All Rural CPOs) John Rosenberger explained that the proposed notice is required by Ballot Measure 56. It was moved to approve the proposed Ballot Measure 56 notice for proposed Land Use Ordinance No. 541 and to authorize staff to charge an appropriate fee for printing and mailing costs for proposed ordinances. Motion - Rogers 2nd - Duyck Vote - 4-0 Commissioner Jones inquired if it is necessary to approve the charge for every notice. Mr. Rosenberger said he would check into this and report back. Commissioner Duyck pointed out that it is important to be consistent on this point. 4.b. MO 99-345 Intergovernmental Agreement with the City of Beaverton John Rosenberger said that this agreement is the result of a negotiated LUBA action with the City of Beaverton for the Hearings Officer to hear the remand. He stated that the property is currently in the City of Beaverton. It was moved to approve the intergovernmental agreement with the City of Beaverton. Motion - Rogers 2nd - Jones Vote - 4-0 OFF DOCKET - LAND USE AND TRANSPORTATION RO 99-156 Transfer Jurisdiction of Certain County Roads to the City of Beaverton (CR 3046T/J) John Rosenberger reported that the County has worked with the City of Beaverton over this transfer of jurisdiction from the County to the City of Beaverton. He indicated that this area has annexed and that Beaverton has mostly taken over the local streets and non-countywide road system. The public hearing was opened. No public testimony was provided. The public hearing was closed. It was moved to approve the Resolution and Order transferring jurisdiction of certain County roads to the City of Beaverton. Motion - Rogers 2nd - Duyck Vote - 4-0 OFF DOCKET - LAND USE AND TRANSPORTATION RO 99-157 Transfer Jurisdiction of Certain Roads to the City of Hillsboro John Rosenberger stated that this represents the transfer of certain roads to the City of Hillsboro.

    Date: January 27, 2021 To: Board of Directors From: Doug Kelsey Subject: ORDINANCE NO. 362 OF THE TRI-COUNTY METROPOLITAN TRANSPORTATION DISTRICT OF OREGON (TRIMET) RETROACTIVELY ADOPTING APRIL 2020 AND AUGUST 2020 SERVICE CHANGES AND UPDATING ROUTE DESIGNATIONS (FIRST READING AND PUBLIC HEARING) 1. Purpose of Ite m Ordinance 362 requests that the TriMet Board of Directors (Board) retroactively adopt service changes and revise route designations now described in TriMet Code Chapter 22, Section 22.05. 2. Type of Agenda Item Initial Contract Contract Modification Other: Ordinance 3. Reason for Board Action The Board may adopt service changes and revise TriMet Code route designations only by adoption of an Ordinance. 4. Type of Action Resolution Ordinance 1st Reading and Public Hearing Ordinance 2nd Reading 5. Background In response to dramatic losses in ridership and adoption of health precautions due to the COVID-19 pandemic, TriMet implemented urgent service changes on April 5, 2020 and August 31, 2020. The first set of service changes were put in place on April 5, 2020 in response to a precipitous fall in ridership due to the outbreak of the pandemic. TriMet staff quickly developed a service reduction plan intended to protect transit service levels provided to low-income and minority communities, hospitals, and major job centers with a high percentage of low-wage jobs. The April 5, 2020 service reduction plan included: • No change in weekday service levels for 24 of 85 bus lines (28% of all lines) • Weekday service adjustments to 61 of 85 bus lines (72% of all lines) • Bus lines receiving weekday service adjustments transitioned from weekday service to Saturday service; lines without Saturday service had their weekday service modified to a lower level; span of service (later or earlier) was adjusted to accommodate demand • Bus lines with weekend service were adjusted to Sunday service for the entire weekend • Weekday MAX service was adjusted to operate every 15 min.

  • Transportation Element
    CHAPTER SIX: TRANSPORTATION ELEMENT TRANSPORTATION ELEMENT 6.1 BACKGROUND Like many communities across the nation, Beaverton's development pattern evolved as a result of several economic and geographic circumstances that established the transportation framework of the City. The historic presence of a large beaver marsh in what is now central Beaverton, the advent of the railroad, and the community's early history as a commercial center of farming and logging activities all influenced its early settlement. The City’s location within the Tualatin Valley and its proximity to Willamette River commerce in Portland destined Beaverton to become a regional transportation hub. As the City grew, so did the demand for roads. The road systems of the various subareas reflect the transportation philosophies and attitudes during the times they were built. The central downtown area was the first to be officially platted and is characterized by the traditional grid pattern of streets. After the original traditional grid was established, subsequent street creation and extension patterns varied greatly as incremental development demanded. East Beaverton residential areas, such as Royal Woodlands, developed with a series of long local streets. In contrast, south Beaverton developed at a time when residents wanted to be protected from through traffic. The result was a maze of short, circuitous, dead-end streets that fulfilled this goal but overburdened the few connecting local streets and adjacent collector and arterial streets with high residential traffic volumes. The road system west of Murray Boulevard was initially designed to serve farming needs. It has proven to be inadequate in accommodating the travel needs of more recent residential development.
