PUBLIC HEARING ITEM:
PLANNED DEVELOPMENT REVIEW (PDR)2010-00001
- TIGARD RETAIL CENTER MODIFICATIONS -
REQUEST:  The applicant requests minor modifications to the approved Tigard Retail Center Planned Development (PDR2008 00001).  The 18.16-acre vacant property is located within the Tigard Triangle southwest of SW Dartmouth Street and SW 72nd Avenue.  The approved plan includes a proposed 137,900 square foot “big box” Target retail building (Retail 3) and two additional 12,000 square foot retail buildings (Retail 1 & 2).  The proposed modifications would change the design details and color pattern of Retail 3 by removing all Target related details and replacing them with a generic earth-toned color scheme.  A 1,800 square foot recycling area is also proposed at the rear of the site.  The project would otherwise be consistent with Tigard Retail Center detailed plan approval and Planning Commission Final Order No. 2009-02 PC.  LOCATION:  The property is located south of SW Dartmouth Street, west of SW 72nd Avenue within the Tigard Triangle.  Washington County Tax Assessor’s Map (WCTM) 1S136CD, Tax Lot 04200, WCTM 2S101BA, Tax Lot 00101, and WCTM 2S101AB Tax Lot 01400.  ZONE:  C-G (PD) General Commercial District with Planned Development Overlay.  The C-G zoning district is designed to accommodate a full range of retail, office and civic uses with a city-wide and even regional trade area.  Except where non-conforming, residential uses are limited to single-family residences, which are located on the same site as a permitted use.  A wide range of uses, including but not limited to adult entertainment, automotive equipment repair and storage, mini-warehouses, utilities, heliports, medical centers, major event entertainment, and gasoline stations, are permitted conditionally.  (PD).  The purposes of the planned development overlay zone are: 1) To provide a means for property development that is consistent with Tigard’s Comprehensive Plan through the application of flexible standards which consider and mitigate for the potential impacts to the City; 2) To provide such added benefits as increased natural areas or open space in the City, alternative building designs, walkable communities, preservation of significant natural resources, aesthetic appeal, and other types of assets that contribute to the larger community in lieu of strict adherence to many of the rules of the Tigard Community Development Code; 3) To achieve unique neighborhoods (by varying the housing styles through architectural accents, use of open space, innovative transportation facilities) which will retain their character and city benefits, while respecting the characteristics of existing neighborhoods through appropriate buffering and lot size transitioning; 4) To preserve to the greatest extent possible the existing landscape features and amenities (trees, water resources, ravines, etc.) through the use of a planning procedure (site design and analysis, presentation of alternatives, conceptual review, then detailed review) that can relate the type and design of a development to a particular site; 5) To consider an amount of development on a site, within the limits of density requirements, which will balance the interests of the owner, developer, neighbors, and the City; and 6) To provide a means to better relate the built environment to the natural environment through sustainable and innovative building and public facility construction methods and materials.  APPLICABLE REVIEW CRITERIA:  Community Development Code Chapters 18.350, 18.390, 18.520, 18.620, 18.755, and 18.780.
