Numerous board members have tried to resolve issues with Jim but have not received much [or any] communication to come to any terms. Board members came to conclusion that Jim and Ron are welcome to come to the meetings and discuss, but that further resolution will not occur outside of the meetings due to lack of communication from them. Neither Jim nor Ron attended the meeting.

Ron also mentioned that there is a bright light now installed to light up the sign. Board members will verify about the light and address that if the problem exists.

Regarding the man who walks his dog using a lawnmower is using paths to move between streets and is disrupting other dog walkers due to his speed.

Eagle Landing Report, Sept 2019
Eagle Landing has filed their Final Master Plan with the City of Happy Valley.  There will not be a public hearing, but comments are accepted until Oct. 4th.
 
Eagle Landing is proposing starting phase one by building on lot number 4, which is located at the SW corner of the site.  They will be building the hotel, some apartments and some retail.  They do not have a tenant for the hotel at this time. Not clear at this time the height of the buildings. They also will be building the entrance monument to the site which includes a clock tower.
 
There is an issue with the storm drain situation. A report by the company GeoDesign in the Drainage Report states that (pg.13): “Due to the presence of generally stiff silt soil with minimal sand and the potential for shallow perched groundwater during the wet season, it is our opinion that on-site infiltration at the site is not feasible and stormwater should be directed to municipal water systems.”  Eagle Landing has requested from Clackamas County a Stormwater Standard Modification Request due the above finding.  Eagle Landing owns the small parcel of land located directly north of the Office Depot store.  They propose to divert the stormwater from the Eagle Landing development to this site.  Unsure if there is already a stormwater detention pond there now or if they will be building one.  They must prove to authorities that they have authorization to use the parking lot at Office Depot to access their land – or provide access off of Bob Schumacher.
 
Eagle Landing is required to submit a new (auto) trip generation estimate to be reevaluated and approved by the City of Happy Valley and Clackamas County DTD prior to the issuance of the Final Master Plan.  This was a condition of approval as stated in Condition 48 when the Preliminary Master Plan was approved last year.  I did not see a new trip generation report included in the Final Master Plan so I am looking into this matter.  The only traffic report submitted was regarding sight distances at the entry/exit points at the site. 
  
Upcoming CPO Meeting:
 
The Sunnyside United Neighbors and West Mt Scott CPO meeting will be on October 7th, 7:00, at the fire station.  Topics will be:

• New proposed Clackamas County Courthouse
• Proposed regulation for short-term/vacation rentals in Clackamas County.
• Clackamas Regional Center Mobility Improvements Projects in Clackamas Town Center.
• Election of Officers and Board members.

Dave Gilman, Home Owner Participant

• Dave sent the board an email that New Hope Church had been sold, per his conversation with a church member, to the Asian Catholic church. From 800 members to 5000. Potential traffic issues.
  
• Dave also mentioned a tree that had fallen in the HOA common area around Derrick Court. Looks as though a section could be cut out and would be sufficient. Josh said he'd take care of it and Neil offered to help.

Eagle Landing/Sunnyside CPO:  Nancy Hall
Nothing new on Eagle Landing. CPO Meeting June 3
 
County Commissioner Ken Humberston spoke about the Courthouse Replacement Project.  Part of the cost is being funded by the State, the County is unsure how they will fund remaining costs.  Possible funding through a bond issue. Mr. Humberston spoke briefly about the County budget and said out of the total 1.2 billion dollar budget, the County basically has spending control on 150 million.
 
Jamie Poole, Outreach and Technology Coordinator for Clackamas County, spoke about disaster management - in particular about earthquake preparedness.  She said citizens should prepare to have at minimum enough food, water, etc., to last 2 weeks.   Minimum water needed is one gallon per person per day. Emergency extra water sources are: the water heater and water in the back of the toilet. If you have pets, you need to prepare for them too. Also keep your documents available (copies?) for a quick exit.  She suggested having a contact person who lives out of state for family members to contact in an emergency because local phone service could be down.  Area emergency radio stations are:  91.5 and 101.1. Some websites of interest: regionalh20.org and emergencytoilet.org
 
A representative from NW Natural gas was there and spoke about earthquakes and gas lines.  In neighborhoods built in 1990 and later, NW Natural may have Excess Flow Valves installed that sense pressure or movement that would automatically shut off gas to those neighborhoods.  Homeowners in other neighborhoods can pay to install an earthquake shut off valve on their gas line.  Some of these valves can be tripped by other means and NW Natural will charge to come out and turn back on your gas.  However, a valve called the Northridge 2000 can be easily reset by the homeowner if it is accidentally tripped. One company that can install these valves is NW Seismic at 503-741-8311.  The NW Natural rep also mentioned that their company was 160 years old and that they get their gas from Canada and the Rockies.  Natural gas is lighter than air and Mercaptan is the substance that is put in the gas to produce the rotten egg smell - otherwise it's odorless.
 
Clackamas County Representatives were there to get feedback about short term rentals, such as AIRBBs.  The County may or may not put restrictions on these types of rentals.  Information gathered will be submitted to the Board of County Commissioners for further consideration.
 
 
HOA Web Site and Homeowner Participant: Thomas Spathas. Noted cars blocking of sidewalks on 96th court. Thomas asked about adding address request for emails that come through the site from Homeowners. All board members agreed that would be helpful.
 
Dave Gilman, Homeowner Participant asked about what work was being done on 99th and Idleman. PGE was replacing some boxes this year and the rest next year according to Mr. Biseaius who had discussion with the workers.
