Wilsonville Road Interchange Area Management Plan

Angelo Planning Group, as a subconsultant to DKS Associates, provided land use planning assistance for an Interchange Area Management Plan to support planned reconstruction of this major urban interchange project. APG provided technical support for assumptions regarding existing and planned land use conditions and then prepared an analysis of city policies and development regulations that need to be updated in order to meet federal, state, and regional requirements for managing land uses in the vicinity of urban interchanges. APG currently is working on recommended plan policies and code amendments, which will address access spacing and local connectivity requirements. The plan should be completed by the end of 2009.

US 101 Scenic Byway Coastal Management Plan

Frank Angelo served as a lead planner of a multi-disciplinary team working with the Central Oregon coastal communities of Coos Bay, North Bend, and Reedsport in developing the US 101 Scenic Byway Coastal Management Plan. This plan required extensive cooUS 101 Scenic Byway Coastal Management Planrdination with federal, state, local, and community groups to identify scenic features and enhancement projects that would qualify the US 101 Corridor for federal status as a National Scenic Byway. The US 101 Corridor was officially designated as a National Scenic Byway in 1998. [back]

Jackson School Road Interchange Area Management Plan and Article VII

As a member of the David Evans & Associates' project team, Frank Angelo was a principal author of the Jackson School Road Interchange Area Management Plan (IAMP) and Article VII/Development Review land use application. The IAMP was developed to implement conditions placed on funding the interchange improvement by the Oregon Transportation Commission. The IAMP prepared land use and transportation strategies designed to protect the function and capacity of the improved interchange. Extensive coordination occurred with the cities of Hillsboro and North Plains, Washington County and Metro through the Jackson School Road Task Force to prepare the final recommended IAMP. The application presented presented alternative analyses and an evaluation of the inprovement against Washington County's development code standards for road improvements. [back]

Newberg Dundee Bypass

Mary Dorman has worked on several phases of the planning for the Newberg-Dundee Bypass project. She wrote the land use chapter of the Draft & Final Location EIS and assisted with writing the statewide goal exception for the portions of the Bypass that extended outside of urban growth boundaries on resource land, including high value farmland. Mary continues to work with ODOT and Yamhill County with refinements of the approved goal exception.

Multiple Interchange Area Management Plans

Angelo Planning Group has worked on the preparation of numerous Interchange Area Management Plans throughout Oregon . Specifically, APG staff has provided land use, policy, and implementation strategy support on IAMPs for the new Jackson School Road interchange, the North Ontario interchange, and I-5 interchanges in ODOT Region 3. APG staff is currently working on IAMPs in Salem ( Kuebler Road interchange) and North Plains (Glencoe Road interchange).

170th Avenue Expansion

Frank Angelo managed the Washington County and city of Beaverton development review process for the expansion of SW 170th Avenue, a Washington County minor arterial road. This $30 million dollar project involved extensive coordination with a variety of agencies including Washington County, the city of Beaverton, the Oregon Department of Transportation, Tri-Met, Clean Water Services, and the Beaverton School District. Frank worked with the citizen Project Advisory Committee on the design and impact assessments of the project.

Because SW 170th Avenue is located in both the city of Beaverton and unincorporated Washington County, two separate land use reviews were required for the widening project. Frank was responsible for preparing the Type III Development Review/Article VII application for Washington County and the Type III Design Review application for the city of Beaverton. Both land use reviews required public hearings. [back]

Interstate 5 Corridor Plan

Frank Angelo was lead planner on a multi-disciplinary team that evaluated the 365-mile I-5 Corridor in Oregon and recommended improvements over the length of the corridor. Frank was the team leader for the ODOT Region 3 (southern Oregon) portion of the I-5 corridor. Frank worked with local jurisdictions within Region 3 to identify corridor deficiencies and issues and develop project recommendations for immediate improvements in the corridor. [back]

Angelo Planning Group was part of the project team for the Commuter Rail project between Wilsonville and Beaverton. APG staff provided land use planning assistance related to the permitting for the five Commuter Rail stations along the route. Frank Angelo prepared a draft Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) between Washington County, Wilsonville, Tualatin, Tigard, and Beaverton that was used to guide land use permitting for the commuter rail station areas. Frank also worked with each jurisdiction to determine land use permitting requirements for the various station locations. APG prepared and submitted the development applications to each jurisdiction for land use approvals. [back]

Brookings/Highway 101 Couplet Analysis

Frank Angelo was the project manager for the Brookings/Highway 101 Couplet Analysis that developed recommendations to convert Highway 101 to a one-way couplet through central Brookings. The analysis examined three project alternatives (including widening existing Highway 101 to six lanes), considered future traffic volumes and patterns, and assessed land use impacts and opportunities associated with each project alternative. The project included community open houses to present the alternatives and obtain citizen and business input. The study was presented to ODOT and the city of Brookings and adopted as the preferred improvement strategy for Highway 101 through Brookings. [back]
