  • Public Facilities and Services Element
    PUBLIC FACILITIES AND SERVICES ELEMENT 5.1 OVERVIEW Beaverton was platted in December 1868 in anticipation of a railroad link being constructed to Portland. The railroad arrived in 1871. Prior to the railroad the area was developed with farms. The construction of the railroad and electric trains provided reliable access to and from Portland, which was a major improvement over the wood plank Canyon Road constructed in 1851. This connection to Portland allowed Beaverton to develop as a bedroom community. Today Beaverton is an inner ring suburb in the Portland Metropolitan area. Except for the southwest corner of the City, which touches the Urban Growth Boundary, Beaverton is surrounded by urban development. There is very little undeveloped land in the City or in its Urban Services Area. What undeveloped land exists is being developed rapidly. The population of the existing City and its Urban Services Area will continue to increase due to measures taken by both the City and Washington County to allow for or require new development to be at a higher density than currently exists. Public facilities and services are essential to an urban community. The availability and adequacy of these facilities and services is required for urban land uses. The need to provide these services historically has been a primary reason for cities to incorporate or for areas to annex to existing cities. The City of Beaverton incorporated in 1893 primarily to provide municipal services. The City has provided these services in the most logical and economic way possible. Over the years, the City has made arrangements with special districts to provide services when that was the most logical route at the time.

Other issues, such as equitable access and problems with projected growth were brought up, but the primary focus was on safety issues and transit access.
