This requires consideration of both long-term and short- term effects on ecological, economic, and community systems. Operating sustainably means that we are leaving a legacy for the community of Lake Oswego and the planet. A sustainable Lake Oswego is a place recognized nationally as a model of livability—a unified city with a vital downtown, a strong sense of neighborhoods, and a harmonious relationship with the natural environment. The lives of everyone who lives, works, and conducts business in Lake Oswego are enriched by a wide range of choices in transportation, housing, recreation, and culture. Our infrastructure is sound, our finances stable, and our citizens and employees healthy and engaged.

Approval of Minutes The Board unanimously approved the March 21, 2016 meeting minutes. Public Comment None. Regular Business A. Review Agenda Co -Chair Ratcliff reviewed the meeting agenda. B. City Council Update/City Council Goals Update Joe Buck updated SAB on Council business. The City is looking to sell a piece of property adjacent to Yakima. The funds that come from this sale have to be used for Parks. Looking to do something parks or pathways related within that vicinity. The City entered into an agreement with Alder Creek Canoe and Kayak to do kayak and canoe rentals at George Rogers Park. Council is also looking at some park planning for Iron Mountain and Woodmont Parks to be funded by SDC funds. Iron Mountain is 50% funded by SDCs and Parks is applying for a federal grant to cover the other half. Total cost for development will be a little over $1 million. Also awarded a contract for the development of a master plan of Woodmont Park. Woodmont has covenants on the deed related to the Hawthorne trees on the property. Sebastian volunteered to be on the Woodmont Park planning committee. Richard asked for an update on marijuana and fiber. Marijuana will be going to the voters to overturn the ban. Fiber- there haven't been any developments on that front since the last meeting. The board briefly discussed the merits of municipal fiber vs google fiber, as far as which customers would be covered. Trying to get a commitment from Google by early summer, so we know whether to put it on the ballot. C. City EV Charging Jenny briefly updated the Board on the grant application process to obtain State funding for EV charging infrastructure. Looking at getting chargers for the fire stations and in each of the parks. D. Block 137 Update Matt Baker from Lease Crutcher Lewis brought some drawings and mockups of the Block 137 project. Some of the project details presented by Matt include: • 200 units, 460,000 sf, underground parking, ground floor retail, 3 floors of residential on 2 buildings, 4 floors residential on 1 building • Over 20 different fagade types • 3 different design themes- Tudor, Oregon rustic, arts and crafts • 15 different roof slopes • Courtyard between the buildings, putting green, bocce ball court, etc • Building was designed from the outside in, so not many unit types that are the same • 1 to 4 bedroom units • High end branding to fit the demographic • Targeting LEED for homes mid -rise Gold • On-site stormwater treatment • Low flow fixtures • Reclaimed some glue laminated timber materials from Wizer • 13 EV charging stations for residents as an amenity- no charge • Pet relief room • Bike storage Mary asked if the parking lot can ever be adapted to be EV parking for all. Matt answered that at some point the will be able to add more conduit to accommodate more EV parking. The project is applying for LEED for Homes Mid -Rise, which is performance based and practical based. Jenny asked whether there would be photovoltaic cells on the roofs, but Matt stated that the design did not a lot of room for solar on the roof. Matt updated the board on current project status. The construction team is starting to go vertical and pouring the concrete cores for the buildings. Gary asked about parking spaces per unit. Matt stated that the parking ration over 1:1 but not quite 2:1. Gary also asked whether the sidewalks surround the property would change in size. The sidewalk size will be the same, and there will also be an east -west pathway connecting 1St to 2nd street. Paul asked the questions that were raised in the SAB letter about the project last year: - Parking- as stated above. - Roofing composition: slate and fiberglass. The composites have a recycled component. - Landscaping: planters all throughout to indicate grade changes and to delineate spaces. Will also use a specialized soil mixture. Trees along 2nd street all preserved, as well as the Japanese maple along 1St and A. - Noise abatement strategies: construction starts at 7:30am, not 7am.
