The portion of the cemetery dedication proposed to be removed is described and shown in Exhibit “A” attached hereto. The abutting property owners to the proposed removal are as follows: 1N301, TL 300 Lone Oak Land and Investment Co., LLC 34059 NW Mountaindale Road North Plains, OR 97133 1N301AD, TL 6204 Paine Tract LLC 10305 SW Park Way #204 Portland, OR 97225 CRITERIA FOR EVALUATION OF ROAD VACATION REQUEST 1) Conformance with ORS 97.440 The property owners have stated in their petition that no interments are present in the cemetery property sought to be removed from dedication. The Historical and Archaeological Investigation Report and a response letter from the Oregon Commission on Historic Cemeteries are attached hereto, and made a part hereof. 2) Use of Dedication The portion of the cemetery proposed for removal from dedication is currently unimproved but is included in a proposed subdivision. The removal of this dedication does not replace the need to meet the conditions and requirements of development. An inadvertent discovery plan must be in place prior to development. If remains are found, all work must stop and follow the plan. All archaeological laws continue to apply beyond the removal of the cemetery designation. Based on the above statements, it is recommended that the Board of Commissioners remove the dedication proposed herein, as it is in the public interest. _____________________ Stacy Shetler, P.E. Washington County Engineer HISTORICAL AND ARCHAEOLOGICAL INVESTIGATION OF THE FIRST ST. EDWARDS CATHOLIC CHURCH CEMETERY, WASHINGTON COUNTY, OREGON By: Bill R. Roulette, M.A., RPA 11132 and Emily C. Taber, M.S., RPA 17399 Prepared for Pacific Community Design Tigard, Oregon October 8, 2019 APPLIED ARCHAEOLOGICAL RESEARCH, INC., REPORT NO. 2265 Historical and Archaeological Investigation of the First St. Edwards Catholic Church Cemetery, Washington County, Oregon INTRODUCTION Project Purpose This report describes the results of a study conducted by Applied Archaeological Research, Inc. (AAR) that focused on a one-acre plot of land that formerly was the St. Edwards Catholic Church burial ground that is located in North Plains, Washington County, Oregon (Figure 1). Victor Cropp donated the land to the church in 1919. The cemetery remained in use until 1926. That year the burials in it were exhumed and reburied in a newly-established cemetery located on Shadybrook Road in North Plains. The former cemetery site is within a larger tract that contains a little over 50.5 acres. Since the cemetery was decommissioned, it and the larger tract have been farmed. Now the Lone Oak Land and Investment Company, LLC, proposed to develop the larger tract into the Brynhill subdivision. Under Case No. 19-1081, the Oregon State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) reviewed the proposed development plans and requested a cultural resources study to determine if the former cemetery retains any burials or human remains, or if it contains other types of archaeological deposits. Pacific Community Design, the civil engineering and planning company that designed the subdivision master plan, contracted with AAR to conduct a cultural resources study to satisfy the SHPO request. AAR’s study also assists the project proponent in complying with Oregon Revised Statute (ORS) 97.440, which describes the conditions under which land dedicated for use as a cemetery can have that designation vacated; a necessary step in being able to develop the property. AAR’s study included in-depth research into the history of the cemetery and archaeological fieldwork to search for cultural materials. Key AAR personnel for the study were Emily C. Taber, M.S., RPA 17399, and Bill R. Roulette, M.A., RPA 11132. Project Area Location and Description The project area for AAR’s study is a one-acre piece of land in the northeast quarter of Section 1, Township 1 North, Range 3 West, Willamette Meridian (WM), that has the street address of 31235 NW North Avenue in North Plains (Figure 2). The former burial ground is a rectangular-shaped tract that measures about 165 feet (ft) east to west and 264 ft north to south. It is in the southeast corner of tax lot 1N3010000300. Elevation across it varies between approximately 200 and 205 ft above mean sea level (amsl). Its surface is mostly level and slopes slightly from the southwest to the northeast. At the time of AAR’s study it was covered in short grass and was within an open agricultural field (Figure 3). As seen on the preliminary design for the Brynhill development, six detached single-family houses and ten attached townhome units with supporting infrastructure and roadways would be constructed wholly or partly in the project area. Project-related excavations in the project area would include stripping the topsoil and the digging trenches for footings and for utilities. Those excavations would range between 2 and 3 ft for the footing and between 4 and 6 ft for the utilities. ENVIRONMENTAL OVERVIEW The project area is in the northeastern corner of the Tualatin Valley. Hydrologically it is in the Dairy Creek watershed of the Tualatin River subbasin of the Lower Willamette Basin. The Tualatin Valley is situated between the Tualatin Mountains (also known as the West Hills or the Portland Hills) to its east and the Coast Range mountains to its west. It forms the northwestern part of the Willamette Valley and is separated from the main part of the valley by the Chehalem Mountains. To a large extent, the modern landscape of the Willamette and Tualatin valleys is a byproduct of late Pleistocene glacial flooding. An unknown number of flood events occurred between about 17,000 Applied Archaeological Research, Inc.

Title: Limited Horizons on the Oregon Frontier: East Tualatin Plains and the Town of Hillsboro, Washington county, 1840 - 1890. APPROVED BY MEMBE~~~ THESIS COMMITTEE: David Johns n, ~on B. Dodds Michael Reardon Daniel O'Toole The evolution of the small towns that originated in Oregon's settlement communities remains undocumented in the literature of the state's history for the most part. Those .::: accounts that do exist are often amateurish, and fail to establish the social and economic links between Oregon's frontier towns to the agricultural communities in which they appeared. The purpose of the thesis is to investigate an early settlement community and the small town that grew up in its midst in order to better understand the ideological relationship between farmers and townsmen that helped shape Oregon's small towns.

Transmission rate increases of 26 percent to 44 percent would be passed directly to industrial and residential consumers. On May 23, the White House fiscal 2018 budget included a cryptic entry for the sale of the Bonneville Power Administration's transmission assets. The proposed revenues from the sale are only 80 percent of the value of the assets being sold. This raises the question of why these valuable assets should be sold at a discount — and who would get the benefit of the discounted price. If the sale goes through, it also will raise novel regulatory issues. In the most likely scenario, the proposed sale could increase transmission rates by 44 percent. In a less likely scenario, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission might be persuaded to reduce the assessed value of the transmission assets to the proposed sale price, since the Trump administration proposes to sell the transmission system at a loss.

  • Hugh Mcgilvra Talk on Washington County Newspapers and Forest Grove History for the Tualatin Valley Historical Society
    Hugh McGilvra Talk on Washington County Newspapers and Forest Grove History for the Tualatin Valley Historical Society An audio recording of Hugh McGilvra, journalist and newspaper publisher in Forest Grove, giving a talk to the Tualatin Plains Historical Society on the occasion of his 50th anniversary of work. He talks about the newspaper history of Washington County for the first 25 minutes; the final 27 minutes are about his experiences working on the newspaper in Forest Grove and the community there. HM = Hugh McGilvra [00:00:00] [Recording begins mid-sentence] [HM]: ...practically everything in Forest Grove is that you don't know which is the egg and which is the chicken as far as Forest Grove and Pacific University are related. Historically, we know that they are intertwined and there has always been a relationship. I think as has been suggested by the introduction, that journalism in Washington County goes back to this date of about 1848. With a rather irregular publication of what was known as the Oregon American and the Evangelical Union, started in Tualatin Plains. Even if we ignore this rather odd publication as a real newspaper, there of course is still the Oregonian, which was actually started in Washington County, if you want to get your history straight. For a while, Multnomah County was not carved up into Washington and Clackamas County, until 4 years after the Oregonian made its [bow?] in 1850. This new county of Multnomah wasn't very highly -- was formed in spite of vigorous opposition of the Oregonian. Which regarded it as merely an opportunity for getting whatever the 1854 equivalent of the serving Democrats happened to be to get the opportunity for another office.
