The Regular Meeting of the Beaverton City Council was called to order by Mayor Rob Drake in the Forrest C. Soth City Council Chamber, 4755 SW Griffith Drive, Beaverton, Oregon, on Monday, November 14, 2005, at 6:35 p.m.

VISITOR COMMENT PERIOD:

Henry Kane, Beaverton, referred to the Metro Report concerning the proposed expansion of Highway 217. He said the report included the public comments received on the proposed improvements during the public comment period from September 22 to October 28, 2005. He said in the report Metro staff concluded that the public opposed the toll lane option; there wasn’t any public support for the toll lanes. He said Highway 217 should be given regional priority for State and Federal construction funds.

COUNCIL ITEMS:

Coun. Stanton said on Wednesday, November 16, 2005, at 7:30 a.m., Community Action of Washington County would be hosting a free "People You Should Know" breakfast at the Kingstad Center. She said this was an opportunity to meet others in the community and learn more about Community Action. She invited everyone to attend.

Coun. Doyle said on Thursday, November 17, 2005, at the Moonstruck Café, the Westside Police Activities League (PAL) would be holding a wine and chocolate tasting event from 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. He said everyone was welcome and there was no charge; all proceeds would benefit the PAL program.

There were none.

CONSENT AGENDA:

Coun. Bode MOVED, SECONDED by Coun. Doyle, that the Consent Agenda be approved as follows:

Minutes of the Regular Meeting of November 7, 2005

05211 Liquor License Application: Greater Privilege - Copper Monkey

05212 Compensation Approval and Transfer Resolution (Resolution No. 3841)

05213 A Resolution Approving Petitions for Annexation of Territory Within the City of Beaverton to the Tualatin Hills Park and Recreation District (Resolution No. 3842)

Coun. Stanton thanked staff for answering her questions. For the benefit of the public, she asked for an explanation of the annexation issue on the Consent Agenda, as the City was not annexing any property at this meeting.

City Attorney Alan Rappleyea said the Tualatin Hills Park and Recreation District was currently processing and sponsoring a number of voluntary annexations into the District; the owners of these properties wish to be annexed into the District. He said one of the statute requirements for District-sponsored annexation was to obtain the consent of the local city. He said Agenda Bill 05213 (Resolution No. 3842) was a formality to show the City agrees to the District's annexation of these properties.

Question called on the motion. Couns. Arnold, Bode, Doyle, Ruby and Stanton voting AYE, the MOTION CARRIED unanimously. (5:0) Coun. Stanton said she would not vote on the minutes of November 7, 2005, as she was not at the meeting.
