How Will We Pay For Street Repairs? We want to hear from you!
PUBLIC HEARING HAS BEEN RESCHEDULED:
The Street Maintenance
Fee will be considered at City Council on Tuesday, December 8, 7:30 p.m. in
the Tigard Town Hall (13125 SW Hall Blvd.).
The City of Tigard invites public comment on the proposed modification of its Street
Maintenance Fee. Interested persons will be able to comment on the proposed
increase of the Street Maintenance Fee to be phased in over the next three years
beginning January 1, 2010. Fees collected are and will continue to be used
by the Pavement Management Program for the corrective and preventative
maintenance of Tigard city streets.
Your input is critical to Council’s decision.
Tigard Street Maintenance Update
In the coming months, City Council will be revisiting our current Street Maintenance
Fee Program to ensure it remains an effective tool for safeguarding this community's
biggest investment: 148 miles of paved streets that keep the people of Tigard in motion.
