Dear Mayor and City Councilors;
City of Ashland
Community Development
November 14, 2006
As you must now realize, the packet for planning action 2006-00078 is extensive. As
two appellants, we would like to help hone your review process down to the specific
water issues that are still on the table. In the Staff Report Addendum of June 13, 2006,
city planning staff noted that the outline plan approval criteria require "That the existing
and natural features of the land; such as wetlands, floodplain corridors, ponds, large
trees, rock outcroppings, etc., have been identified in the plan of the development and
significant features have been included in the open space, common areas and
unbuildable areas." At the time of approval by the Planning Commission the above
criteria was not fully met for Lot 18. Further, specific information as to the properties of
the well, the springs in the pool, and the spring in the pool holding tank were not
disclosed. It is not our intention to imply this was deliberate, we believe it arose from a
misunderstanding as to whether Lot 18 was part of this application or not. This
misunderstanding plagued the proceedings for quite some time until staff made it clear
that Lot 18 was part of the application. The proceedings were further plagued by the
uncertainty as to whether Lot 18 was being represented in the application. The
applicant, Sage LLC, subsequently made it clear that she represents the entire parcel
slated for sub-division. The existing natural features of the other lots were extensively
covered during the hearings before the Planning Commission. That brings us to Lot 18.
The appellants below signed this appeal to bring to the council's attention the above
requirements for Lot 18. They are yet to be addressed.
We urge you to read the Draft Geothermal Assessment Report from Cascade Earth
Sciences recently made available in the packet. While not answering all questions (e.g.,
how much water is coming from the artesian well/spring box?) it certainly answers many
of them, and will help you focus on what remains to be designated existing and natural
features of the entire parcel.
We wish to thank you for your careful consideration of this appeal.
Sincerely,
Cyndi Dion

Planning Action 2006-0078 Helman Springs Development--
Supplemental Filing During Council's 7 -Day Record Period
by Art Bullock
This document is a supplemental filing of key points and evidence for the record of Planning Action 2006-
0078, Helman Springs Development, submitted Nov 15, 2006 during the 7-day record period.
1. Include video records of related meetings. I ask that the record include videos of PC (Planning
Commission) meetings where this application, or the general issue of development access streets and LID
policy, was discussed, including and not limited to Mar14, Apr11, May9, Jun13, Jul11, and Aug8, all 2006. It's
not necessary to individually copy these video records since videos are viewable online and downloadable; no
work is required of staff. I ask that videos be incorporated by reference and preserved on the website until all
appeals on this application are exhausted. I also ask that the record be supplemented to include the minutes
and related documents submitted at those meetings, if not already included in the packet.
2. Attached is a signed petition showing neighborhood support for appellants' consensus position.
Over 95% of those contacted, on and off Laurel Street, signed to support appellants' proposal that:
(a) Council needs to set a policy for how developers should participate in a nearby LID to mitigate
the effects of traffic on the neighborhood, and
(b) Developer Sage should be required to pay their fair share of street improvements costs in
Laurel St LID.
The petition is submitted with confidential address information, which I ask be kept confidential to the fullest
extent allowed by Oregon's Public Records Law and other laws. A separate copy is submitted with addresses
redacted for this purpose.
The petition page with the Laurel St signatures was lost or misplaced by the copy business, and is not
available for submission at this time. Several attempts to locate it have been unsuccessful. It included dozens
of signatures on Laurel St from Nevada St to the railroad tracks at Hersey St.
3. Also attached is a related email from a neighborhood resident to my Iistserve at
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/AshlandCouncil, which should be included in the public record.
4. The LID policy has indeed changed. At the Oct 17, 2006 hearing, Councilor Silbiger questioned
whether the LID participation policy had changed, and got an ambiguous answer. We dispute the PO
(Planning Dept) answer/insinuation that the LID policy hasn't changed. The policy has indeed changed, even if
there's no formal statement that the policy has changed. The old policy is simply not being followed any more.
THAT'S the policy change.
Council may recall its May 17,2006 meeting on Plaza St LID, when Councilor Chapman asked city
attorney Mike Franell if non-remonstrance agreements don't mean anything, why are we using them? Franell's
answer was "good question". They're meaningless and unconstitutional, and no longer used. Non-
remonstrance agreements were used to force a developer to pay large sums of money to City without the legal
right to object ('remonstrate') to bad street design. Given we've now demonstrated that property owners have
such a right under city code and the Constitution regardless of a signed document saying they don't, PO and
Public Works don't pursue them. If City forces a developer to participate in the LID while retaining the right to
stop it with a huge block vote, City empowers the developer to stop the LID with 1 block vote, which in Nevada
St LID constituted a one-person majority in a 125-lot LID. This new situation is a total turnaround from the old
disempowerment pattern of a financial burden with disenfranchisement. Even if the developer agrees with the
financial costs, the homeowners who buy the lot may not, so the developer's position at the time of application
is non-binding and thus not very meaningful.
The policy change is the unannounced stoppage of the old policy without a replacement. PC recognized
the problem, and specifically asked council to direct it with a a policy statement of how PC and PO are to
approach LIDs in planning applications. Similarly, appellants ask for a general council-set policy on the
appropriate way to mitigate development traffic costs on neighborhood, which will then be applied to Helman
Spring Development. Given that PO and PC don't know what council expects for LIDs, it's incumbent on
council to generate the replacement policy.
5. To correct the misrepresentations/misunderstanding--there's no request that Sage pay all, or
even most, of laurel St LID costs. Billings Ranch subdivision has already added much traffic to Laurel St,
with much more coming, including much heavy truck subdivision traffic barreling down the Laurel St incline
past the school zone and homes with children playing. Billings subdivision should also be required to pay its
test
fair share, because of the dramatic increase in traffic resulting from that 72-home subdivision, of which only a
few homes are currently occupied. Other traffic comes from Laurel St and side streets.
6. I dispute Assistant City Attorney Richard Appicello's claim that Sage agreed to any other
agreement other than that in our jointly-filed appeal document Appicello claimed that Sage and Legal
Dept had agreed to allow Legal Dept to apply Dolan criteria (from the landmark Dolan v. City of Tigard
Supreme Court case) to determine the developer's costs for Laurel St LID. The so-called 'agreement' solved
NONE of the problems that prevented this from occurring before: definition of access streets, formula for
calculating developer costs, timing of payment (now vs. by homeowners years later), etc. The developer has
considered many options for fair share costs, and to my knowledge, has not agreed with or directly opposed
any option. In consensus sessions, Sage's position was that Sage would be willing to participate in the LID
consistent with a Council-set policy. Sage and the 2 appellants working on this issue (Stout & Bullock) ask for
a guiding policy that sets criteria, formula calculations, what costs and access streets are included, timing of
payment, etc. We're not asking for a precedent-setting backdoor policy from the Legal Dept. We're asking for
a publicly-discussed and council-set policy on how to fairly treat the developer and neighborhood in mitigating
traffic costs.
7. I object to any 'agreed-upon' condition that has not been put in the record to allow review and
rebuttal. Appicello claimed Sage agreed with a condition of approval, yet there's nothing in the record to
support such a claim. Sage didn't say Sage agreed with it, and in fact, principal Devian Aguirre said, after
Appicello's testimony, that some of what she had just heard was inaccurate. There's no factual basis for
Appicello's claimed condition. If such a written agreement exists, it should be placed in the public record for an
opportunity to review and rebut. If the agreement is oral, then it should be converted to writing so Sage can
agree or disagree in writing, and we have the opportunity to review and rebut.
As appeal documents show, we object to any 'factual' assertion of what the developer (or any other party)
agreed to without that agreement being signed by the party that City claims agreed.
As council sees in the record, a continuing planning procedural error is requiring as a condition of approval
everything the applicant agreed to, without clarity or signatures of what was actually agreed to, whether in
public or behind closed doors. For example, Appicello or Franell could privately ask the developer, "Are you
okay with a flat payment up front to mitigate traffic costs?", Sage could answer, "If that's council policy, we'd
agree with it", and Legal Dept could mishear that as a "YES", claiming later that Sage agreed to a flat payment.
The best way to prevent City from hearing what it wants to hear as an agreement to an undocumented,
unreviewable condition of approval is to require the agreement to be in writing and signed, and in the record
BEFORE the condition is set. When Appicello claims on the record that the applicant agreed to something off-
record, off-camera, behind closed doors, on the phone, etc., it has the effect of forcing a non-existing
'agreement' to become a condition of approval, with wasted appeal time later trying to clarify what the
agreement and condition of approval was. Since these conditions must be met later, it opens the door to
expensive claims months later about what was and was not actually agreed to.
8. Despite new claims, development access streets have not been identified, as required by code.
gave separate presentations to PC regarding decision rules for how to determine ALL access streets to a
development, as required by code. Current code requires that all development access streets be fully
improved to existing city standards. They haven't been improved, or even identified. That's a LUBA-
appealable error. This hasn't been resolved because neither PO nor PC know how to do it without a new
guiding policy. The bully power of non-remonstrance agreements is gone and there's nothing to replace it, so
PO and PC ignored this requirement. It's still City code that ALL development access streets be FULLY
improved to existing city standards. This has to be done, and it's up to council to determine the fair distribution
of street improvement costs.
After much difficult discussion, neighbors and developers reached a consensus position that if council sets
a specific policy for LIDs before the final plan, and applies that policy to the development as part of the final
plan, then appellants would agree to defer the details of how Sage pays their fair share to the final plan.
What's critical here is that council, not Legal Dept, take responsibility for generating an LID policy before the
final plan with adequate time for the PO and PC to apply that new policy to the Helman Springs Development.
If council were to do so, we could shift city and neighborhood resources from a LUBA appeal to the more
constructive approach of clarifying and applying a 'Fair-Share Policy' to mitigate traffic effects on a
neighborhood. We don't need to waste City resources on an unnecessary LUBA appeal. We need a public,
community-building consensus council decision on traffic mitigation cost distribution.
test
9.1 dispute Appicello's claimed definition of 'significant feature', as presented in the Oct 17, 2006
council meeting. There's nothing in the record to indicate or support his claimed definition, which was
presented as a factual statement, claiming the definition is x. It was not presented as his interpretation or
Franell's interpretation. The record shows the developer and Franell (not Appicello) met and used a different
interpretation of significant existing and natural features, which was used as the basis for PC decisions and our
consensus appeal.
10. We have a continuing procedural error of allowing staff and developer to enter new evidence
and arguments after public testimony has concluded. The record shows this occurred repeatedly at PC,
causing multiple hearings.
This procedural error was repeated at the council meeting, when Appicello and PO staff introduced new
evidence after the public portion of the hearing concluded. When I made a procedural objection to allow the
right to rebut, mayor disallowed it, saying that part of the hearing was closed. Appicello informed the mayor
that I indeed had a right to rebut, and all 5 appellants were then allowed to rebut the new, allegedly improper
evidence.
11. Allowing developer to lodge new legal arguments after the close of the record period is a
separate procedural violation. I dispute the new policy, to which council acquiesced, that would allow Sage
to make new legal arguments after the 7-day record period closes. I object in advance to any so-called 'final
arguments' that are new and occur after the record closes. ORS 197.763(6)( e) may allow 'final arguments' that
aren't new; Oregon's quasi-judicial rules don't allow any party to introduce any evidence or arguments without
all other parties having the right to review and rebut.
It's a procedural error to allow ANY new arguments by the developer or any other party after closing the
record. We again assert our right to rebut ANY new arguments (or evidence) raised by Sage or any other
party after the record closes on November 15, 2006. Council should stop this reversible procedural error and
prevent an unnecessary LUBA appeal by disallowing any new arguments or evidence after the record closes.
Oregon law requires fairness and balance. Every party has the right to review the evidence and
arguments, and rebut. When we return the system to fair balance, with equal opportunity to review and rebut,
City of Ashland returns it to imbalance, giving the developer an unfair advantage to add information after the
close of the record, or significant information just before the hearing, or after the public testimony period of the
hearing. PC and council perpetuate this error by: (1) asking questions of the developer after public testimony,
who introduces new evidence and arguments in answering questions, (2) allowing staff to present new
information and variations of old information either voluntarily or in response to questions, and (3) allowing
Legal Oept to introduce new evidence/arguments on behalf of the applicant. This continued violation of basic
quasi-judicial law generates needless appeals, wastes taxpayer money that would be better spent building
consensus, and increases distrust by taxpayers, who see Ashland's planning process as unfair and stacked
against the public interests.
12. Council improperly interpreted the procedure to extend time. Franell has clarified previously his
interpretation that it is NOT proper to request an extension of an appiicant--the only proper process is a
voluntary extension initiated by applicant. Appicello had council ask Sage for an extension, under what
appeared to me to be undue pressure, then asserted another automatic 7-day extension as a result of the
request to hold the record open for 7 days, as allowed by code. Both the request, and the 'automatic'
extension of 7 days, were improper.
13. Mayor improperly denied applicant's right to include appellants in her presentation. Applicant
Sage brought the 4 other appellants to the table as part of her 15-minute presentation, which was appropriate
given the joint nature of the prepared presentation. Mayor and Appicello disallowed it, saying that appellants
would not be allowed to speak at that time. City has no authority to determine who does and does not speak
with or for the applicant, nor does mayor or Legal Dept had statutory authority to prevent appellants from
speaking during the applicant's 15-minute period, if the applicant so chooses, as she did.
Developer principal Devian Aguirre WAS allowed to speak during the appellants' 15-minute appeal, as one
of the appellants, giving her nonstop access for the entire period--applicant, appellant, and applicant rebuttal.
This is a huge unfair advantage, and is an unnecessary LUBA-appealable procedural error. We saw no
evidence that Aguirre sought this unprecedented unfair advantage. Instead she worked to promote consensus
and community goodwill by including appellants in her presentation of our joint consensus, as we did when I
invited her to join our appeal and develop a consensus presentation to council. This procedural error led to an
unplanned situation where attorney Hearn was misinterpreted as representing appellants,- because we weren't
allowed to be part of consensus presentation as planned.
test
As a partial remedy, and to help prevent a LUBA appeal on this error, council and mayor should clarify for
the record and future appeals that City has no authority to decide who the applicant can or cannot have
participate in their presentation, even if it is appellants.
Conclusion
Developer Sage and the neighborhood have worked hard for months to reach consensus on every
issue before us. Devian Aguirre and the Sage team have worked diligently and persistently to satisfy PD, PC,
property owner, and neighborhood.
The problem is City's planning process, which continues to needlessly drive a wedge between
developer and neighborhood. Issues like spring water, tree removal, traffic mitigation, sidewalks, part rows,
and the like can all be resolved by consensus in an environment of effective communication. Instead of
supporting consensus-building, PD, PC, Legal Dept, and now council continue to make it more difficult.
"Let's you and them fight" is bad public policy. The current planning process assumes and supports a
confrontational conflict between developers and neighbors, rather than a community-building process of
developer and neighborhood working through issues and options with consensus. As the Siegel consulting
report clarified, Ashland's planning process is broken and needs to be fixed. Helman Springs application
shows from developer and Quiet Village's community-building approach and a dysfunctional process that
violates quasi-judicial procedures, needlessly prolongs the decision process, wastes taxpayers' money, and
generates distrust rather than goodwill.
It was improper for Appicello to claim the developer agreed to something without written documentation,
signed by Sage, as to what was agreed. This so-called 'agreement' didn't exist, and was an improper way to
influence council's decision by improperly claiming the developer agreed to what the Legal Dept wanted.
The Legal Department has had more than a dozen opportunities in the last year to resolve this LID
issue and failed to do so. Instead, they waited until after public testimony had ended to introduce a
new 'policy' where Legal Dept determines the traffic mitigation costs and procedures. This is exactly
what we AREN'T asking for. We aren't asking council to have the Legal Dept, after the close of public
testimony, to set a policy to get what the Legal Dept wants. We're asking for an open, transparent discussion
in the public interest to establish a Fair Share Policy for traffic mitigation costs, to get what the majority of
Ashland taxpayers want.
All 3 appellants for whom LIDs are an issue agree that council should set a Fair Share Policy. We're
not proposing any particular formula for traffic mitigation costs, or criteria for defining access streets, or
whether the amounts should be paid by the developer upfront rather than by the homeowners years later in an
LID. We've considered, and I've presented to you and PC, a wide range of issues and options, anyone of
which may be appropriate--or inappropriate--given council's Fair Share Policy. It's simply not possible to make
a traffic mitigation decision that's fair to developer and property owners who may get liens on their homes to
pay for Laurel St LID without a council policy that applies to this development and other applicants. None of
the appellants want to shift the burden from council to staff or appellants, which would define the policy from
one party's self-interest or narrow point of view. We're prepared to fairly apply a Council-led Fair Share Policy
to the Final Plan for Helman Springs Development.
To prevent legally arbitrary decisions and greater distrust of Ashland's planning process, the Fair
Share Policy for neighborhood traffic mitigation costs should be set by council policy, not by
patchwork.

RE: Helman Springs Application ( 247 OtIs Street)
Appeal of Planning Commission Approval of Planning Action 1#
2006.00078 (A Requ..t for Outline Plan approval under
Perfonnance .Stllndards Option)
Dear Mayor and Council:
The following brief closing points are respectfully submitted as -Rebuttal",
at the close of the public record in Planning Action # 2006-00078.
Applicant's principal (Devian Aguirre) worked closely with her co-appellant
neighbors, endeavoring to establish consensus on the primary issues of concern
to the neighborhood In general, and to the IndMdual co-appellants In particular.
Applicant's sincere commlbnent to the ongoing task of Identifying, addressing,
and resoMng co-appellantl' concerns is demonstrated by her many hours of
meetings and discussions with her co-appellant neighbors during every stage of
the process. This public hearing process concerns Applicant's preliminary
request for -Outline Plan- approval. The process both anticipates and requires
that Applicant will need to cOmplete further work, study, and Investigation before
receiving -Final Plan" approval.

Council Appeal ofPA # 2006-00078
As discussed during the public hearing, the procedure for C10utline Plan"
approval under the .Performance Standards Option" Includes the following
criterion:
"That the existing and natural features of the land; such as wetlands,
floodplain corridors, ponds, large trees, rock outcropplngs, etc., have
been identiffed in the plan of the development and significant
features have been Included in the open space, common areas, and
unbufldable aress. "
AMC i 18.88.030 (A) (4) (c).
First, this -existing and natural features" criterion was discussed
extensively during the several public hearings before your Planning Commission.
It was ultimately addressed in the Findings, Conclusions and Orders issued by
the Commission. See attached Planning Commission Decision, at p. 5, ~ 2.7
(Record: p. 20); and at p. 10, Conditions 33 and 34 (Record: p. 25).
Second, the concrete pool and surrounding metal pool structure on Lot 18
are human-made .artlflclal improvementtf rather than .natural featuretf. Please
not that the Ordinance's examples of -existing and natural featureS' provided In
518.88.030 (AX4)(c) - ("That the existing and natural features of the land; such
... wetlands, floodplain .corrldors, ponds. I.",. tNes, rock OIJtClOpplngs,
etc., ..~ j - are. all fJIIfUral features, and do not support the conclusion that
dilapidated and leaking concrete swimming pools and any old metal structures
enclosing them should be Included in the common open space of the .Outllne
Plan- .
Third, requiring that the humanMmade, leaking concrete paol. and the
metal shed which houses It, be Included In the .common areas. of the subdivision
leads to a number of foreseeable, yet unintended, consequences. These Include:
. liability and Insurance issues associated with saddling the to-be-
formed homeowners association with 8 cracked and leaking
swimming pool and surrounding old metal sheet
. The property's Improvements (swimming pool, metal shed, and old
family home on Lot 18) have been In property owner Sylvia
Chambers' family for three generations. As stated In the record, Ms.

Council Appeal ofP A # 2006-00078
Chambers views the parent parcel (Lot 18) as her home and family
legacy. She apparently has no intention of ever selling it, according
to statements in the Record. The Record reflects that the Planning
Commission discussed at length - and ultimately resolved - this
unique Issue by providing that the to-be-formecl homeowners'
association would have a -first right of accesS' to use the spring if Lot
18 1$ ever partitioned or subdivided In the future. See attached
Planning Commission Declslonl p. 10, Condition 33 (Recordl p. 25).
Lastly, Applicant's Devian Aguirre provides her own Response, attached.
Thank you for your consideration of, and anticipated deliberation on,
Applicanfs request for Outline Plan approval under the Performance Standards
Option.
Sincerely ,
DAVIS, HEARN, SALADOFF & SMITH, P .C.

Appeal of

Helmam Sprmp Development
AppliMot ReIpoue
Honorable Council Members:
Thmuihout thh Pl8nnb1g Action we have made efforts to be inclusive in our immediate neipborhood and ~ the
public at large. It bec8me appII_t to us very earl)' on that a l8rge part of the problem is that there is a concern by
more than a few people that there is little 1rust in the process of hmd development in Ashland. In the process of
seeking approval afthis project we have wodced hard to build that trust and that is .why we chose to join the Appeal of
our project approve!. It WIS important to join in the Appeal 110 8S to not add to the divisive DItUre of these
proceedinp. We have ~ked towud CODSeDsUS and will continue to do so.
We have no substantiw diugreement here. the wetlands and sprinp are ultimately decided by the State
Department ofSta'Ce Lands and until such time that the City shall adopt its own spcci:fic wetland ordinarice. this is the
applOprlate jurisdiction to review the wetlands issues. The springs discovered under. the pool structure should be
protected and can be done so now or at Final Plan.
I have read the document sent for your review by one of my fellow Appellants, Art Bullock. I can see that there arc
neiahbon who took the time to ~ew the issue and sign the petition for the formation of an Improvement District.
Allow me tx:J restate our position that my requirement fairly impOsed to ~ development of Street Improvem.ents will
be accepted.
The issues that baw been expn:sscd by my fdlow Appellants are all jssues that can be addressed in FiDal Plan. And
we will addresS these and any other issues that arise at the Final Plan hearins (s).
Applicant requests that Councll take action in one of the three methods' recommended by Plannina Staff:
1. Approve the project as it is.
2. Approve, 8Dd lIII1end the Conditions of Approval.
3. Reject the approval of the project.
.lbe Applicant desires that any aDd all issues that may be present today are heud and decided upon at Final Plan
bearing.
Tba11k you for the time and effort to RVicw this project. We appreciate level ofpsrticlpation we have experienced
in thisprojcot aDd will do our best to be a positive addition to the neighborhood.
