A Trip Generation and Distribution Description is required for:

1. Any zone change that may result in more trip generation than previously allowed
2. Any development that, in the judgement of City staff, would generate 100 or more new daily trips.  Developments anticipated to generate this level of traffic, and thus require a Trip Generation and Distribution Description, include:
   1. 10 or more single-family homes,
   2. 15 or more multi-family units,
   3. Industrial buildings 15,000sf or larger,
   4. Office buildings 8,000sf or larger,
   5. Any use with customers or public coming to the site (such as retail, restaurant, school, medical office, recreation, etc.)
3. Any case where, in the judgement of city staff, a Trip Generation and Distribution Description is necessary to protect the public interest.

Because there are many repairs and replacements needed throughout our park system, projects will be sequenced and prioritized based of the following criteria:

• System Balance
• Urgency & Immediacy
• Ease of Implementation
• Synergistic Benefits
• Environmental Sustainability
• Operational Sustainability
• Scale of Benefit

If your project requires a new or upsized water meter, an SDC will apply for the cost of the meter, plus installation.  For the current water meter SDC rates, please see the document attached below. When a meter is upsized, credit will be given for the existing water meter. This fees is used for maintaining our clean water system through the water system fund.

Los parques son vitales para todas las comunidades, ya que estos:

• Nos conectan con la naturaleza
• Mejoran nuestra salud y bienestar con abundantes oportunidades para       acondicionamiento físico 
• Crean lugares de reunión comunitaria
• Crean ecosistemas que proporcionan aire más saludable y agua más limpia

New trails would create connections to reduce traffic, improve pedestrian safety, and promote healthy transportation options. Expanding trail connections would make parks, schools, and transit stops accessible to more community members. 

Access to and creation of sports fields in City parks and through cost-effective partnerships with the School District, would provide places for youth health and wellness. 

Creating a new riverfront destination in Tualatin’s downtown would enhance local businesses, provide environmental education opportunities, and create a place for river access.

A full Transportation Impact Analysis is required for cases (in staff’s judgement) that:

1. Would be anticipated to generate more than 500 vehicle trip ends per day and/or more than 60 vehicle trip ends in the morning or evening peak hour and/or more than 100 vehicle trip ends during the peak hour of development traffic.  Developments anticipated to generate this amount of traffic (and thus require a Transportation Impact Analysis) include:
   1. 50 or more single-family residences,
   2. 80 or more multi-family residences,
   3. 75,000 square feet or more of industrial space,
   4. 40,000 square feet or more of office space,
   5. 10,000 square feet or more of retail space,
   6. any restaurant, convenience market, or gas station,
   7. any development with a drive-through.
2. Would be anticipated to generate more than 20 large truck trips per day
3. Propose a zone change that, in typical build-out scenarios, would be anticipated to generate more traffic than the previous zoning
4. Are adjacent to a roadway where there is question about its cross section, such as the need for turn lanes at intersections or a site driveway, need for adequate queuing space between intersections and/or driveways, need for pedestrian or bicycle facilities, or other issues.
5. Would result in significant non-residential traffic through a residential neighborhood.
6. Would be required to submit a traffic study by the County or State guidelines for impact on their roads.
7. There is any doubt that the existing or proposed transportation facilities in the vicinity of the proposed development are capable of accommodating the amount of traffic expected to be generated by the proposed development or that on-site facilities would adequately function without impacting public streets.
8. A traffic study is necessary to protect the public interest.
