PUBLIC HEARINGS
1. Public Hearing and approval of the Siskiyou Boulevard Design concept.
Public Works Director Paula Brown presented a synopsis of the Siskiyou Boulevard redesign efforts. She stated that the
primary objective and goal was on safety. A detailed cost estimate was not available, but the project is estimated at $2.1
million. Additional goals include: Sense of Community Place; Park-Like Ambience; An Environment Supporting
Transportation Choices; Functional and Maintainable Infrastructure; Safety for All; and Maintaining Historical Character.
Brown presented maps and explained, in detail, concepts and designs for the Historic and University Districts. Brown
asked the council for approval on the concept level and explained that the concept level encompasses the over-all idea of
the plan, not specifics such as curb placement, intersections, etc.
Gateway District (Library/Fire Station) Brown noted that redesign for the gas station, library, or fire station is not
included on this design. It is the recommendation of the committee to close the swooping left turn typically used for the
fire station emergency vehicles. Emergency vehicles would exit let~ at a point further down on Siskiyou, which would be
made specifically for them.
The Historic District A considerable amount of pedestrian movement would be provided throughout this section. The
medians at Union, Harrison, and Liberty Sweets would be changed, prohibiting left tarns onto Siskiyou. Two traffic signals
would be added, one at Sherman and another at Morton. These signals would allow for U-turns. The end of Iowa Street
will be closed, stopping traffic from entering Siskiyou. Heavily landscaped medians would be put in on Siskiyou between
Beach and Mountain prohibiting pedestrian crossing mid-block.
The University District Brown noted that blue lines on the map along Siskiyou indicated pedestrian well-defined
crossings. Marked concrete and pedestrian lighting will raise vehicle awareness. A possible promenade along Siskiyou
in front of the Southern Oregon University is of interest to both citizens and the University. However, this is not part of
the CUlTent plan. One contentious issue involves removing the possibility of a left turn at the end of University Way. From
a safety standpoint, it is important to reroute this traffic. At the end of the parking lot on Siskiyou, the left turn would also
be blocked. At each intersection, signs would be posted allowing for U-turns.
South Gateway It was noted that the traffic pattern at Highway 66 changes at this section. Siskiyou at Wightman would
be narrowed to include one thru-lane and one left lane. This is for two reasons: 1 ) traffic safety; 2) continuing the look and
feel of Siskiyou Blvd. Brown clarified for council that the goal of the committee was to look at traffic safety. The volume
City Council Meeting 2-06-01 Page 1 of 7
of traffic currently in that area, as well as projected volumes, indicate that five lanes are unnecessary. By narrow the street
from five to three lanes would allow for a dual left-turn lane, two travel lanes, and a bicycle lane, which leaves nine feet
on both sides of the street to make parking bays and plant trees. Brown requested council direct her to bring back
recommendations for this plan.
Reid commented on her concern of current construction taking place at this time and noted that it may be necessary to cut
freshly laid cement.
Hartzell noted her concern regarding the Walker Street intersection. Brown stated that should the street be reduced from
five to three lanes, something would need to be done to address significant pedestrian issues at that intersection.
Brown explained that the landscaping shown on the map at Highway 66 is only a future suggestion as it is not part of the
Siskiyou project. The intersection at Siskiyou and Highway 66 would be straightened and given a more box-like
appearance instead of the skewed pedestrian crossing currently at that site.
Brown farther clarified, in regards to the narrowing of streets, that city street standards are set at 11 feet, whereas current
streets are 12 feet. She agreed to bring copies of studias indicating that 11-foot lanes are as safe as 12-foot lanes along with
a list of streets with 11-foot lanes so that council can test-drive them. Tom Litster, Project Manager of OTAK, explained
that 11 -foot travel lanes are very common, especially in urban areas. That there is no data indicating that 11 -foot lanes are
less safe than 12-foot lanes. In addition, the narrower lane reduces the size of right-away and impervious surfaces, which
is critical for storm water management and air-temperature at the street level. Studies have shown that narrower lanes create
traffic calming by slowing vehicles. In his experience, there has not been a detrimental consequence to narrowing lanes
to 11 feet.
Public Hearing Open:7:35 p.m.
Dennis Sweet/1135 Reiten Drive/Submitted a letter to the council, noting his opposition to a proposed three-lane design.
He requested the retention of the present five-lane design with street-side enhancements. Sweet thought the potential for
the creation of congestion is not worth the safety risk.
Zane Jones/223 W. Hersey/Offered his support of the project and noted his concerns about pedestrian crossings.
Kate Jackson/359 Kearney/Noted her positive experiences working with the committee. She stated that the values and
comments incorporated into the conceptual design have been consistent with the recommendations of the 1994 public
design process and the Transportation Element of the City Comprehensive Plan. Jackson asked the council to approve the
proposed design concept and move forward with detailed engineering.
Brent Thompson/582 Allison/Stated that this project should be third on the list of priorities after Ashland Street and North
Main. He is not in favor of shrinking the medians or blocking streets. Streets could be made safer by adding lights for
pedestrians and bicycles. Thompson suggested starting with smaller projects by enhancing pedestrian and bicycle safety
first. He also cautioned about grant money and possible strings aRached.
Dick Meister/1777 Crestview/Read letter by Steve Meister supporting beautification, but not at the expense of function.
Ron Peil/1500 Siskiyou Blvd/Submitted a letter on his concerns regarding proposed Siskiyou Blvd designs for the
commercial portion, Reducing from five to three lanes will restrict the flow of traffic and increase congestion. Population
increases will only compound the problem.
Carole Wheeldon/815 Oak S~/Commended city staff for the work involved in the proposed conceptual design. She
cautioned that money from ODOT for this kind of project is rare and may not be available again. The way to relieve vehicle
congestion is to encourage pedestrian and bicycle usage through safe traveling options.
David Young/672 Monroe/Stated he was a representative of the bicycle/pedestrian community on the committee. This
project has developed a comprehensive way of thinking about traffic. Safe infrastmctore should be engineered first and
then teaching can occur. Young requested support for the proposal from the council.
Valri Williams/744 Helman/President of the Ashland Chamber of Commerce/Noted the Chamber's concerns about lane
reduction. She urged the council to look at the potential for growth before removing the two lanes.
Don Greene/229 Normal/Supported the proposal for 3 lanes, and was convinced that 5 lanes are not warranted. Safety is
the biggest issue. Greene felt the only solution is to reduce the lanes.
City Council Meeting 2-06-01 Page 2 of 7
Wes Brain/298 Garfield/Voiced his concern regarding pedestrian safety. He felt a higher level of enforcement by police
officers in the school areas, especially the university district, was needed. Enhanced crossing is necessary. Brain supported
raised medians to guide pedestrians to cross at designated points.
John King/289 Palm Ave/Noted the need for pedestrian safety, including the maintenance of sidewalks. He shared his
personal experience involving vehicle/pedestrian accidents. King urged council to think of safety first.
George Fardelmann/490 Liberty St/Spoke in favor of bike lanes on Siskiyou Boulevard. He supports narrower lanes
and the lane reduction. Fardelmann suggested a citywide 25-mph zone between Maple and Walker.
Carol Lee Rogers/327 Glenn St/Remarked on the unsafe conditions for bicyclists riding on the sidewalk. She supports
bicycle lanes on Siskiyou Boulevard. Rogers urged the council to accept the plan and move forward.
Public Hearing Closed: 8:25 p.m.
Brown explained that the proposed signals would be timed, and that pollution, associated with stopping and starting
vehicles, is most evident with "cold starts." The timing of the lights will improve traffic congestion and pollution. Reid
requested data on pollution from vehicles stopped at signal lights. Litster explained that it would be difficult to determine
the amount of pollution. Forcing vehicles to drive an extra half block in order to make a U-turn would be balanced by more
trees, lower air temperatures, and the beautification of the boulevard.
Reid requested a traffic comparison for University Way be completed before a decision is made to close any streets.
Brown clarified that the decision, whether to reduce from 3 to 5 lanes, should be set aside until a later time in the conceptual
design. She stated that strings, attached to the project by ODOT, include bike lanes and keeping the lanes open during
construction. Staff will be gathering traffic-count information.
Brown explained that staffused the quick response design team, funded by DLCD and ODOT, to go through a rapid design
process. That it took three and half months, which is a compressed amount of time and there was good participation at the
meetings. She explained that throughout the design and construction phases, businesses will be included and that sidewalk
repair or replacement is part of the plan.
Morrison noted that there is no permeable surface under the medians, as they are dirt piled on top of pavemant, and that
new planters should go through the pavement to the dirt below. Brown agreed, and added that the new designs would garner
more groan areas than currently in existence. Morrison noted the increase in speed as vehicles cross the intersection at
Highway 66 and that the highest number of accidents occur at this point. Brown agreed that safety is a priority and she will
be gathering information about safety and the reduction to 3 lanes for the council. Litster stated that bicyclists and
pedestrians are the "yellow canary" of the roadway system, that when their numbers go down, it is a sign that the system
is fundamentally flawed. Safety should be proactive not reactive.
Brown clarified for the council that a 4-lane and median idea is possible, but turn lanes are necessary, and they would
reduce the width of the medians. Laws commented that business owners may prefer three lanes to four lanes with a median
strip. Litster stated that if the goal is to extend the powerful sense of Boulevard, the way to do this, is to go to 3 lanes with
a median strip and turn refuges.
Brown explained that the traffic signals were not in the original budget and that additional funding is needed. She stressed
that enhanced pedestrian crossings at signals is planned. She further explained that discussion regarding the promenade
along the university will continue in the future, and added that signs will clearly define crosswalks for pedestrians.
Brown stated that the proposed design has a 9-12 month time line and requested approval from the council on the concept
and to move forward on the RFP process:
Councilors Morrison/Fine m/s to approve concept design and to direct staff to implement the process to select an
engineering design team for final engineering design. DISCUSSION: Reid noted her concern regarding the number
of large projects the city is undertaking and that because the road is old, she is concerned about what may lay
beneath. She felt she could not support taking control of the street from the State, but would vote in favor because
she felt thc project is moving in that direction. Fine voiced his concern regarding the possibility of going over
budget and noted that there other highly unsafe areas in the city that need addressed. DeBoer reviewed staff's
recommendation to move forward, leaving the 3/5-lane option open. Hartzell clarified that other issues covered by
staff would be resolved as well. VOICE VOTE: ALL AYES. Motion passed.

PUBLIC FORUM
S.K. Lumen/1565 Siskiyou Blvd #26/Spoke regarding the need for affordable housing for the Upper and Lower Pine
Trailer Park and other low-income families in Ashland. She had just found out that the area in which she lives has been
deemed a "slum." The group living in this area will be meeting at the Presbyterian Church on February 13, at 6:30 p.m.
to discuss keeping their homes. A petition will be distributed in support of their cause.
UNFINISHED BUSINESS (None)
NEW AND MISCELLANEOUS BUSINESS
1. Update on the Middle School Bicycle Safety and Awareness Program.
Associate Planner Maria Harris explained that the Bicycle Transportation Alliance (BTA) had received a three-year grant
from ODOT to develop a safety curriculum for middle school children.
Scott Bricker of the BTA explained that the program is similar to a driver's education course. In addition to in-class time,
the students are taken out to the streets to practice rider safety. The BTA provides bicycles, helmets, and learning materials
for the project. The goal of the program is to increase ridership and safety. The grant is lapsing, and support has been
offered by the hospital, bicycle shops, the university, other city departments, and citizens.
Carol Lee Rogers of the BTA focused on the excitement at the schools. Not only children taking the class, but other
students are riding their bicycles more often.
Chris Trowbridge, a middle school student who took the class, told the council that he had learned hand signals, proper
helmet use, and the importance of reflectors.
Bricker clarified that the BTA runs programs in Portland, Hillsborough, Corvallis, Central Oregon, and the Rogue Valley.
They hope to have more programs in Eugene, Gresham, and Clatsop County.
2. Report regarding Living Wage.
City Administrator Greg Scoles explained that there are a number of policy issues which need to be resolved. Staff
recommended that an ad hoc committee or subcommittee be appointed to develop a final draft of the living wage ordinance.
Suzi Aufderheide/321 N Mountain/Stated that 50% of the children at the middle school are on free or reduced lunch,
which testifies to the economic needs of the town. Federal poverty levels severely under estimate the costs of meeting a
family's basic needs. A living wage is between 52% and 197% greater than the minimum wage. People often confuse the
minimum wage with the living wage. A significant percentage of working families are not able to meet their basic needs.
Incomplete and misleading information diverts attention from those suffering economic hardship. This is the reason for
the need for a committee to refine an ordinance.
Rich Rohde/124 Ohio/Oregon Action organizer/Felt that forming a committee would be a positive step toward a living
wage ordinance. Oregon Action supports the proposal, if it has a reasonable time line attached. He noted that many in the
community have been given the hope that the council would move forward.
Patty Frey/507 Tucker Street/Owner of Rare EarthNoiced her concerned with the council becoming involved in setting
wages. Guanajuato Way was donated in the 1970s, and the council at that time was clear that it would remain open and
accessible. The council has changed since then, and so has the accessibility of Guanajuato Way. Although the living wage
ordinance will only affect city employees, she is concerned that other businesses will be forced to comply as well. This
would raise the cost of goods, lose customers, and employment opportunities. Employers, forced to raise wages, will look
for higher quality employees, leaving students and the elderly without work. She felt that a living wage ordinance would
not make Ashland more affordable.
Valri Williams/744 Helman/Ashland Chamber of Commerce President/Voiced her concern about the affect on the
community. The living wage ordinance would affect non-profit organizations, and raises serious concerns regarding the
cutting of health benefits. The Chamber requests that the council allow the state and federal government to deal with wage
issues, as it is counter-productive to the community.
DeBoer noted a letter from Dan Thomdyke urging the council not to rush in resolving this issue.
Williams stated she would be interested in serving on a committee is requested.
DeBoer stated that he supports a livable wage, but questioned whether it was the city's role to pass an ordinance. He felt
City Council Meeting 2-06-01 Page 4 of 7
that a considerable amount of stafftime had been used to investigate an ordinance and that there is no stafftime to enforce
such a law. DeBoer requested that the council stop the forward movement on the proposed living wage ordinance and
to not form a committee.
Hartzell noted that the previous council had the intention of moving forward on the living wage ordinance. She clarified
that the proposed ordinance reflects how the city pays its staff. She supported the staffrecommendation that the council
forma committee of stakeholders (Chamber, Business Contractors, Service Masters, OSF, council members, etc.) to discuss
an ordinance.
Mordson commented that he had not decided whether he was willing to pass an ordinance but supported exploring it further
and that forming a committee of stakeholders would be a good way to get more information.
Fine supported the forming of a committee as he wants to see this issue move forward. He felt that the council has a
responsibility to make a moral statement mandating that city employees be paid a livable wage and that the proposed
ordinance would make a statement to the business community, and possibly induce private enterprise to join in.
Laws noted his concern on how a living wage may affect non-profit agencies. He is in favor of further discussion that
includes exemption for non-profits.
Hanson stated that if the proposed ordinance affected any private businesses he could not support it, but he feels that this
ordinance is harmless, as it only affects city employees and sub-contractors, who are already receiving a living wage.
Fine/Reid m/s to adopt staff recommendations. Voice Vote: All Ayes.
3. Ad Hoc Committee Report on the Ashland Watershed Protection Project - Final Environmental Impact
Statement.
Howard Heiner/784 Garden Way/Spoke regarding the report produced by the Ad Hoc Committee and is in response to
the draft Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) from the Forest Service. The governmental process required Ranger Duff3'
to add suggestions and make selections of alternates for the final Impact Statement, by February 12, in a Record of
Decision. This is the fmal legal document that binds the Forest Service into action around the plan for the protection of
the watershed. The committee is asking the council to pass their report on to Ranger Duffy as a recommendation from the
city. Heiner stated that the City has a Memorandum of Understanding, which was signed with the Forest Service in 1929.
It has been a passive agreement as the City has seldom exercised suggestions to the Forest Service. The committee urges
the council, under the Record of Decision, to take a more active role in the management of the watershed.
Jay Lininger stated the Ad Hoc Committee focused on alternative six of the final EIS, which was written by District Ranger
Duffy in response to a public involvement process of the drafi vemion. Alternative six changes the focus of the
management strategy from suppression to fire resilience. The challenge is to facilitate conditions permitting low-intensity
rims that would maintain soil stability, as well as forest and water quality. Alternative six is the first step in the process
of addressing 10% of the landscape, which allows time for addressing the other 90% in a long-term management strategy.
The watershed, topography, climate, and disturbance history defy sweeping generalizations about the historic fire
environment, as well as the effects of tim under current conditions. There is an incomplete understanding of the role fire
plays. Forest restoration is important, as it has been degraded by past management. A widespread application of intrusive
treatments, particularly mechanical logging applications, could lead to further damage of the forest's eco-system. It is
crucial that restoration efforts are done in a careful and incremental fashion recognizing the limits of the current knowledge.
Federal funding for the implementation of manual treatments and prescribed burning exists now. Congress allocated $125
million to the forest service for a fuels reduction projects in urban wild land interface communities. Ashland is at the top
of the national priority list because it is a municipal watershed where fire has been actively suppressed and also provides
for critical habitat for endangered species (northern spotted owl). Money is available to hire local labor on a fee-for-service
basis. The process is broken into three parts: 1 ) manual treatments would emphasis the reduction of surface fuels (kindling
on the ground) and ladder fuels (small trees that could take a fire offthe ground and lit~ it up to the forest canopy), which
are the primary variable for the initiation of crown fires; 2) Gathered debris would be burned; 3) strategies for long-term
monitoring would be implemented. The committee's key recommendation is to begin in the urban wild land interface
closest to homes and roads where the highest fuel hazards exist. The vast majority of rims in the watershed occur in the
lower one-third of the watershed. People start most of the rims, not lightening.
Reid stated her support for the recommendation, but had a few questions. Heiner clarified that 10% of the watershed is
City Council Meeting 2-06-01 Page 5 of 7
addressed in the report. The plan would hopefully being this year and is expected to last three years. Lininger clarified
that there are three factors putting Ashland at the top of the list: it is a municipal watershed at risk due to fire suppression
standards, it is an endangered species habitat, and there is a unique public involvement process surrounding this project.
He added that this project has been held up as a model by the Forest service.
Hartzell Notes that NEPA is almost done. She stated that 10% is as large an area as the Forest Service could handle at this
time given the enormous acreage involved. Hartzell questioned the different names (mechanical, hand, manual) used to
describe treatments. Lininger noted that "mechanical" is the correct term. Lininger added that the final ElS does not
support canopy openings because the scientific justification is just not there from a wildfire management perspective.
Hartzell suggested that the committee discuss situations that might trigger an Environmental Assessment. Heiner responded
by pointing out page 4, number 4, from the Northwest Forest Management Plan safeguarding those situations.
Eric Naviekas/711 Faith Street/Noted that there has not been 100 years of fire suppression. There were fires in the
watershed in 1910 and 1959, both of which were suppressed. The Forest Service has performed significant under-burning
projects for years. In his observations he has found that the only areas where there are significant fuel loads are where the
Forest Service has done large logging projects for fire reduction. Navickas read a letter from Regional Forester to the Forest
supervisor regarding opposition to logging in the watershed. He displayed maps of the area and explained a compromise
that was reached between the Ashland Watershed Alliance and Forest Service.
A motion was made to extend the meeting to 10:30 p.m. Voice Vote: All Ayes. Motion passed.
Asha StoutJ130 Orange Ave/Representative of the Wilderness Charter School. He is sixteen years old and a student at
the charter school. Stout has fulfilled an internship in fire reduction program. He is concerned about the use of toxic fire
retardant in the watershed, the use of mechanical tree removal, and the removal and/or sale of large diameter timber from
the watershed. He asked that alternatives five and six of the FEIS are discarded for the health of the watershed.
Councilor Fine made a motion to note the report and pass it on to the Forest Service. Motion died due to a lack of
a second.
Councilors Laws/Fine m/s to forward the report of the Ad Hoc Committee and the letter received from the Forest
Commission on to the Forest Service recommending their serious consideration to the thoughts expressed.
DISCUSSION: Reid stated her concern regarding the high quality of water in the watershed. A hydrologist told
her that the Medford Water District has a higher quality of water because it is a deep spring, whereas Ashland is
drinking run-offwater. She is concerned about fire suppression chemicals used during fire season and the mixture
of the water with these chemicals.
Lininger clarified that cyanide is used in fire suppression materials. Communities in Montana have asked 3M to
develop a new formula, however, if one is not produced by fire season, the original will be used.
Morrison stated that the City should take a strong stand on this issue. The report from the ad hoc committee and
the letter from the forest service commission are aggressive statements reflecting thoughts, with a focus on the
interface of citizen's safety and welfare, as well as, a focus on the ecological conditions in the watershed. Soil
conditions are particularly delicate. He feels there needs to be a particular focus in this area.
Hartzell supported Morrison's statement. The report from the Ad Hoc Committee should be forwarded to Ranger
Duffy at the Forest Service.
Fine stated the report is very persuasive, but he lacks an expertise in forestry. He feels he cannot endorse this report
as the City's proposal. He thought Linda Duffy would be a better judge, and recommended sending it to her.
Fine clarified the motion made earlier: Council will accept the report from the Ad Hoc Committee and will send
it to Linda Duffy at the Forest Service, with a recommendation for very strong consideration of the materials.
Voice Vote: All Ayes. Motion passed.
