Parks and Public Works Director Matt Samitore reported that the City previously
budgeted for the Hamrick/Pine and the Beebe/Hamrick intersections out of the
Development Commission Street 2021 and 2023 Fiscal Year Budgets. The final
engineering has been completed for the new intersection at Hamrick and Pine;
however, the current construction numbers are significantly higher than anticipated.
Staff recommends delaying the project for one calendar year to explore other funding
sources and watch the market for the best time to bid out the project. There could be
Grants available to help fund the process.

This party has been in contract to lease a lot in the Table Rock Crossing Subdivision.
She was told that the deal was dependent on improved access. After researching the
inquiry, it was determined that an additional access onto Table Rock Road cannot be
supported due to access spacing requirements and the high volume and close proximity
to the intersection of Table Rock and Biddle Road.

ISSUE SUMMARY
TO: City Council
DEPARTMENT:
Public Works
FROM: Matt Samitore, Parks and Public Works Director
MEETING DATE: October 14, 2021
SUBJECT: Resolution No. ________, Accepting the Lowest Responsible Bid from
Knife River Materials Inc. for the Highway 99 Streetscape Project and
Authorizing the City Manager to Execute a Contract
ACTION REQUIRED:
Resolution
RECOMMENDATION:
Approval
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
The City conducted a bid letting procedure for the Highway 99 Sidewalk and Parking Lot
project. This joint project with School District 6 and Highway 99 to enhance pedestrian
safety and improve the last section of the unimproved sidewalk along Hwy 99 N/Front Street.
The project will include new sidewalks along the west side of Front Street along the Highway
99 frontage, including a new bio-swale. Additionally, a second pedestrian crossing and a
pedestrian signal will be installed near the entrance to the Highway 99 to allow for safer
pedestrian movements from Crater High School to Highway 99. Lastly, the front parking lot
will be paved as part of the overall project. The School will pay that portion.
The engineer’s estimate was $225,000-$250,000. The City received three qualified bids for
the project. The lowest responsible bidder for the project is Knife River Materials at
$250,050. The School District will pay $31,020 for the parking lot portion through our
existing Intergovernmental Agreement. Total City funds will be $219,030.
FINANCIAL ANALYSIS:
The project was initially budgeted in the 2021/22 Development Commission budget. However,
the budget was re-allocated at the last Development Commission meeting to allow the Pfaff
park restroom replacement to proceed forward. With the re-allocation, only $100,000 will be
contributed by the Development Commission. The remainder will come from the Street
7.A
Packet Pg. 12
Infrastructure line item. Though not budgeted specifically, staff has re-allocated priorities to
fully fund the project in the FY 2021-23 City of Central Point Budget (street fund). No
additional budget appropriation is needed to complete the project.
LEGAL ANALYSIS:
The City of Central Point public contracts/bidding is governed by Oregon Revised Statute
(ORS) chapter 279, and Central Point municipal code (CPMC) chapter 2.40.
COUNCIL GOALS/STRATEGIC PLAN ANALYSIS:
Community Investment; Goal 5 – Plan, design, and construct modern and efficient
infrastructure in all areas and systems. Strategies 3 and 4.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Approve a resolution awarding the Highway 99 Streetscape construction project to Knife River
Materials, Inc.
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
I move to approve Resolution No. ____ accepting the lowest responsible bid from Knife River
Materials Inc. for $250,050 for the Highway 99 Streetscape project and authorizing the City
Manager to execute a contract.

Staff Report to Council
ISSUE SUMMARY
TO: City Council
DEPARTMENT:
City Attorney
FROM: Sydnee Dreyer, City Attorney
MEETING DATE: October 14, 2021
SUBJECT: Resolution No. ________, a Resolution approving property exchange
agreement – Bear Creek Greenway – with Jackson County.
ACTION REQUIRED:
Motion
Resolution
RECOMMENDATION:
Approval
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
Currently, Jackson County owns a number of parcels within the Bear Creek Greenway that are
located within City limits. The City seeks to take ownership of all such properties within the
Bear Creek Greenway, that are in City limits, to better enable the City to maintain and manage
Greenway properties. In particular, taking over ownership of these properties would allow the
City to more consistently maintain not only the land which contains the multi-use path, but also
those undeveloped areas which abut the multi-use trail.
Additionally, taking ownership of the above-described Jackson County parcels will allow Central
Point to annex the property into our boundaries (city limits and urban renewal boundary).
Adding the property to our urban renewal boundary will create an alternate funding source to
assist with completing the development and construction of our conceptual design.
FINANCIAL ANALYSIS:
Jackson County is not charging the City of Central Point for the above-described property.
However, we will be covering a number of closing/processing costs, which we anticipate will be
minimal.
LEGAL ANALYSIS:
Legal counsel has been extensively involved in these negotiations and has no objections.
COUNCIL GOALS/STRATEGIC PLAN ANALYSIS:
Strategic Priority – Community Investment
GOAL 5 - Plan, design, and construct modern and efficient infrastructure in all areas and
systems.
7.B
Packet Pg. 21
STRATEGY 1 – Continually update infrastructure plans.
STRATEGY 2 – Provide regular financial analysis on utility enterprise funds so infrastructure
can be adequately maintained, restored, upgraded, and expanded.
STRATEGY 3 – Aggressively seek to capitalize on partnerships with Jackson County, the City
of Medford, and the Oregon Department of Transportation to eliminate infrastructure
deficiencies and build for the future.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Make a motion to approve.
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
I move to approve Resolution No. ________, a Resolution approving property exchange
agreement – Bear Creek Greenway – with Jackson County and authorizing the City Manager to
execute same.

RESOLUTION NO. _______
A RESOLUTION APPROVING PROPERTY EXCHANGE AGREEMENT - BEAR
CREEK GREENWAY - WITH JACKSON COUNTY AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY
MANAGER TO EXECUTE SAME
RECITALS:
A. Jackson County owns multiple parcels of land which are developed with a
portion of the Bear Creek Greenway multi-use trail and/or which abuts
properties along the Bear Creek Greenway.
B. The City of Central Point desires to take ownership of real property along the
Bear Creek Greenway, which is within City limits, to allow the City to more
efficiently manage and maintain greenway property in order to reduce fire risk,
and ensure the greenway is an attractive, usable public amenity.
C. Jackson County has agreed to transfer the properties to the City subject to a
Land and Water Conservation Fund Project Agreement, to which Jackson County
is currently subject.
The City of Central Point resolves:
Section 1. The attached Property Exchange Agreement for properties within the Bear
Creek Greenway with Jackson County (the “Agreement”), in substantially the form
attached hereto as Exhibit “A” is approved.
Section 2. The City Manager is hereby authorized, on behalf of the City and without
further action by the City Council, to execute the attached Agreement and to perform all
necessary acts, sign all necessary documents, and complete any other necessary matters
in order to effectuate this Resolution.
Passed by the Council and signed by me in authentication of its passage this _____

maintenance and all other obligations of any other nature of the Tracts upon Closing and all obligations under the Land and Water Conservation Fund Project Agreement Number41-00556
applicable to the Tracts; and (b) Jackson County shall have no further management and

3. Title. Jackson County shall convey title to the Tracts by quit claim deed, properly executed and notarized conveying title to Central Point in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E.

ISSUE SUMMARY
TO: City Council
DEPARTMENT:
City Attorney
FROM: Sydnee Dreyer, City Attorney
MEETING DATE: October 14, 2021
SUBJECT: Resolution No. ________, a Resolution approving property exchange
agreement – Bear Creek Greenway – with the City of Medford and
authorizing the City Manager to execute same.
ACTION REQUIRED:
Motion
Resolution
RECOMMENDATION:
Approval
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
Currently, the City of Medford owns an approximately 13.91-acre parcel of land within the
Bear Creek Greenway that is located within City limits. The City of Central Point seeks to
take ownership of all such properties within the Bear Creek Greenway, that are in City
limits, to better enable the City to maintain and manage Greenway properties. In
particular, taking over ownership of these properties would allow the City to more
consistently maintain not only the land which contains the multi-use path, but also those
undeveloped areas which abut the multi-use trail. The transfer of this parcel would be
subject to an easement for the benefit of Medford for future stormwater detention facilities
on the Medford side of Bear Creek.
Additionally, taking ownership of the property currently owned by the City of Medford will
allow Central Point to annex the land into our boundaries (both city limits and urban
renewal district). Adding this land to our urban renewal district boundary provides a
significant funding source for the future development and construction of our Bear Creek
Greenway concept.
FINANCIAL ANALYSIS:
The City of Medford is not charging the City of Central Point for the above-described land.
And although Central Point will cover closing/processing costs, we anticipate the overall
expense will be minimal.
LEGAL ANALYSIS:
Legal counsel has been extensively involved in these negotiations and has no objections.

mechanisms such as creation of a Greenway taxing district, grant funding or other

ISSUE SUMMARY
TO: City Council
DEPARTMENT:
City Attorney
FROM: Sydnee Dreyer, City Attorney
MEETING DATE: October 14, 2021
SUBJECT: Resolution No. _____, a Resolution approving an assignment of water
rights between City, Wild River Orchards, Inc. and Del Rio Vineyards,
LLC and authorizing the City Manager to execute same.
ACTION REQUIRED:
Motion
Resolution
RECOMMENDATION:
Approval
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
On April 7th, 2004, Wild River executed a “Water Right Sale Agreement” with the City. Pursuant
to the Water Right Sale Agreement, Wild River transferred its water rights to the City, which
thereafter converted them for municipal purposes. Wild River at the same time secured irrigation
water from the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation from its Lost Creek Reservoir to enable continued
irrigation of the subject property pursuant to the Lost Creek Reservoir Contract for Water
Services #059E101522 (“Contract for Water Services”). In exchange for the water rights, the
City is obligated to pay to Wild River and its successors and assigns the yearly charges
resulting from the Contract for Water Services for the initial term of the Contract for Water
Services, which is the period of 2005 through 2045. All of the obligations of the Parties under
the Water Right Sale Agreement have been fulfilled or satisfied, except for the City’s obligation
to reimburse Wild River and its successors and assigns for the yearly charges it pays
associated with the initial term of the Contract for Water Services and the associated Attorney
Fee and Notice clauses.
Wild River and Del Rio entered into a Real Estate Sales Agreement dated July 30th, 2021,
whereby Wild River has agreed to sell the subject property to Del Rio. After closing, the Parties
will cooperate with each other such that a Water Services Contract in the name of Del Rio will
be issued by the Bureau of Reclamation to replace Contract No. 059E101522 (the
“Replacement Contract for Water Services”). Under the Contract for Water Services, the City
will remain obligated to reimburse Del Rio for the yearly charges associated with the
Replacement Contract for Water Services for years 2021 through 2045.
Wild River and Del Rio negotiated an Assignment Agreement for the sale of the Water Rights,
and seek City’s agreement and consent to the form and terms of this Agreement to ensure that
the City’s obligation under the terms of the Water Right Sale Agreement to reimburse Del Rio
the yearly charges associated with the Contract for Water Services applies to the yearly charges
associated with the Replacement Contract for Water Services, and that after the transfer of the
subject property from Wild River to Del Rio, the City will be obligated to reimburse Del Rio for all
7.D
Packet Pg. 45
of the yearly charges associated with the Replacement Water Services Contract for the years

ISSUE SUMMARY
TO: City Council
DEPARTMENT:
Community Development
FROM: Stephanie Holtey, Planning Director
MEETING DATE: October 14, 2021
SUBJECT: Planning Commission Report
ACTION REQUIRED:
Information/Direction
RECOMMENDATION:
Not Applicable
The Central Point Planning Commission met at their regular meeting on October 5, 2021. There
were two (2) discussion item on the agenda regarding to introduce cottage housing as a new
housing type and to discuss a minor amendment to the Transportation System Plan Project No.
230. At the conclusion of the meeting, updates were given on development and the City’s
floodplain management program.
Cottage Housing
Planning staff provided an overview of cottage housing as a potential new housing type that
could be allowed in low and medium density zones in the City. The purpose of adding cottage
housing is to increase housing supply and affordability, while offering more housing options for
singles, small families and seniors. As part of the introduction, planning staff briefly reviewed the
key features of cottage housing, various code elements that are commonly applied in other
communities that allow cottage housing developments, and examples of how the current
regulations currently preclude this type of development.
Planning Commission members engaged in the discussion offering feedback regarding the
need for this housing type and how it could serve the city. Since this is a new housing type that
is missing in the city currently, there was some uncertainty as to how to best craft regulations
that will fit Central Point. A suggestion was also made to provide the Planning Commission a
primer on planning and zoning to help Commissioners visualize the distribution of the City’s
zones and to understand what they are and how they influence the recommendations that they
will ultimately make.
As part of the discussion and exploration of this housing type, Planning Commissioners were
invited to a Cottage Housing Tour in Ashland on October 18, 2021. This will present an
opportunity to see what two developments look like and to learn how changes in the City of
Ashland’s zoning code impacted the outcomes of each. This experience is expected to help
inform future discussions as draft code language is prepared for Central Point.
Minor Transportation System Plan Amendment: Project No. 230
The Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) received grant funding approval through the
All Roads Transportation Safety (ARTS) program to construct improvements at the intersection
8.A
Packet Pg. 53
of Scenic Avenue and Highway 99. The project will involve installing a signal and applying a
road diet from the City’s jurisdictional boundary just south of the intersection to Exit 35. A Minor
Comprehensive Plan Amendment is needed to the Transportation System Plan (TSP) to add
the road diet to the project in order to receive funding.
Planning Commissioners discussed the project concept and expressed agreement that safety
improvements are needed at the intersection. However, there were questions and concerns
about the impact that a road diet could have on the community as a result of decreased road
capacity to accommodate traffic during times of emergency, as well as impacts from increased
traffic volume due to the connection of 140 to Highway 62. Planning staff recommended that the
Planning Commission direct staff to schedule a public hearing and initiate the process of
providing notice to affected agencies and the public. The Planning Commission agreed that
initiating the public process would allow for technical input on the application as necessary to
make a recommendation to the City Council.
Development Update
Staff provided an update on development activity during the month of September. The same
report was provided at September 23, 2021 City Council meeting.
Flood Program Update
Planning staff provided an update on changes to flood insurance rating. He noted that the
Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) is phasing in changes that will make it
possible to get a more accurate understanding of flood risk for structures in the community.
Instead of focusing on flood zone and the lowest floor height, the new rating methodology will
include a broad range of factors, including but not limited to type of flooding, distance from the
flooding source, first flood height relative to the flooding source, etc. Based on preliminary
information, almost half of Central Point residents are expected to see a decrease in their
monthly premiums. A little more than half will see between a $0 - $10 increase per month and
1% is expected to see an increase of up to $20 per month.
It was noted that the City is currently in the process of going through an audit for the Community
Rating System (CRS). This program provides automatic discounts on flood insurance to Central
Point residents. This program will become increasingly important under the new rating model,
which accounts for mitigation actions that reduce flood risk. A future update will inform Planning
Commissioners of the CRS audit outcome, as well as more information about flood insurance
changes as we learn more.

ISSUE SUMMARY
TO: City Council
DEPARTMENT:
Public Works
FROM: Matt Samitore, Parks and Public Works Director
MEETING DATE: October 14, 2021
SUBJECT: Annual Storm Water Quality Report
ACTION REQUIRED:
Information/Direction
RECOMMENDATION:
Approval
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
The City assumed administration and oversight over the Storm Water Quality program from
Rogue Valley Sewer Services (RVSS) in early 2019. Each year since Public Works has
performed an annual review of our Storm Water Quality Program. Staff will present a
PowerPoint presentation showcasing the program's projects, successes, and future at the
October 14th City Council meeting.
The City has also submitted an application to the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality
(DEQ) for the 1200-CN program. This program allows the City to inspect all projects under 5
acres in size. We were informed last month that we had been granted that approval.
Unfortunately, the actual permit is still under review by the state, and until that new permit is
issued/finalized, we remain limited on the size of projects that we are allowed to inspect and
review. We hope that the new permit/regulations will be adopted by early 2022. Currently, the
City can issue permits for projects that are less than one acre in size.
Our current program is a three-pronged approach. Administrative duties of the overall program
are conducted by the Environmental Services Coordinator, Mike Ono. Additionally, Mike
facilitates the salmon watch program and provides interagency coordination. Furthermore, the
engineering review process is conducted by our contract engineer with RH2, Tyler Duncan.
Tyler reviews all new projects and serves and leads engineers on most of the City Capital
Improvement Projects. Lastly, Mike Blake handles all day-to-day inspection and enforcement

in the field. Mike is at job sites daily and also comes in during off-hours depending on the
amount of rainfall. Mike is readily available to his contractors and provides a consistent
approach.
Mike Ono will be presenting at the Council Meeting.
FINANCIAL ANALYSIS:
Similar to Rogue Valley Sewer Services (RVSS), the City of Central Point does not collect a fee
for erosion control projects that are less than one acre in size. However, once we begin
reviewing and inspecting projects between one and five acres, we will adopt a new fee
scheduled. Currently, RVSS's fees for projects of this size and nature are as follows:
Projects disturbing 5 acres or more: Permit Application fee and 1st year annual fee is
$2,734 (effective November 1, 2021).
Projects disturbing 1 to 4.99 acres: Permit Application and 1st year annual fee is $1,500.
Projects disturbing >5 acres renew through DEQ at their current rates.
Projects disturbing 1 to 4.99 acres will be invoiced by RVSS for the annual permit
renewal fee of $750.
In addition to erosion control projects, I ha

2040 Strategic Plan
Strategic Priority: Community Investment
GOAL 4 - Manage growth to provide places that are timeless and loved by the community.
STRATEGY 1 – Engage the community in placemaking focus groups to learn what
characterizes places that are distinctly Central Point and desirable as growth occurs in the
Urban Growth Boundary.
STRATEGY 2 – Continually monitor and update the community's land use to reflect the
community's preferences for how new growth areas will look, eel, and function. (As the City
8.B
Packet Pg. 56
grows in response to market demand, this supports the creation of urban form and architectural
character informed by the community's vision for its future.
STRATEGY 3 – Provide a professional land development review process that is efficient,
collaborative, and solution-oriented.
STRATEGY 4 – Develop a toolkit of incentives to leverage in exchange for more desirable
community places that provide public amenities associated with needed housing, employment,
and other services, including but not limited to: public plazas, open space, parks, affordable
housing, value-added design to attract professional office and other uses that provide more
living-wage jobs).
STRATEGY 5 – When developing new parks or updating features of our older parks, involve
the community in these planning efforts so that these facilities meet the needs of our citizens.
Each park should reflect the individual character of the neighborhood in which they reside.
Continually reevaluate the needs of our community in terms of parks and facilities.
