Tolls: Final version of recommendation scheduled for July
Continued from Page 1A
Paris Achen/Capital Bureau
Emma Sager, standing, of Portland-based consulting firm EnviroIssues, waits to write feedback from members of a Portland-area
tolling policy advisory committee on a draft recommendation for tolls on Interstate 5 and Interstate 205.
Representatives for environmental and
trucking interests clashed over whether
the pilot should include raising revenue to
build another lane on I-205. Environmen-
tal representatives want to encourage transit,
carpooling and other alternative modes of trans-
portation to decrease demand on the roadways
rather than increase space for more vehicles.
Jana Jarvis of the Oregon Trucking Asso-
ciation said she would support a plan only if it
included raising revenue for additional lanes.
“Congestion” or “value pricing” refers to the
practice of changing the toll price for a freeway
or a lane based on how much congestion is on the
roadway during that time. During the rush-hour
periods, the price would be higher, and at some
times at night, there might be no cost to use the
same road.
A $5.3 billion transportation-funding bill
passed last year requires the state transportation
commission to consider tolling in the Portland
metro area but does not mandate it.
A final version of the recommendation is
scheduled to be presented to the Oregon Trans-
portation Commission in July.
Transportation commissioners have until
December to send a proposal to the Federal
Highway Administration, which would need to
approve any plan.
It would take several years to implement the
tolling plan, according to state transportation
officials.
The Capital Bureau is a collaboration between
EO Media Group and Pamplin Media Group.
Hotel: ‘When you build on the river you build in the front yard of every home on the hill’
Continued from Page 1A
Sam Mullen, a representa-
tive from Hollander Hospital-
ity, said he doesn’t know what
steps the company will take
next, but will have a better
sense by the July meetings.
“It’s tough to say, but my
gut says we’ll start looking at
other plans,” Mullen said. He
believes there is flexibility to
change the way the proposed
hotel looks. On Monday, crit-
ics called the hotel generic
and ugly, a box and, more
specifically, a cigar box.
“This was pretty far down
a path,” he said of the appli-
cations under review Monday.
But the project received valu-
able feedback, he added.
The Design Review Com-
mittee meeting was standing
room only and 16 people tes-
tified against the project, none
testified in favor of it.
The committee voted 4-1
to deny the hotel applica-
tion. They said they were not
against a hotel at the location
— hotels are permitted out-
right in the zoning that exists
in the area — but they worried
about blocked views, how the
new building mashed up with
the old Ship Inn, and issues
such as parking and housing
for employees. People who
testified against the project
echoed these same concerns.
Views of the Columbia
River aren’t just for tourists,
said Sarah Jane Bardy, who
serves on the committee.
“When you build on the
river you build in the front
yard of every home on the
hill,” she said. A smaller
building could be a better fit,
she added.
She noted that stepbacks
the developers employed to
be allowed to build a taller
building within the Bridge
Vista overlay the city estab-
lished to guide development
in the area — literally step-
ping back portions of the
building to open up views
and avoid a flat appearance —
were misleading and didn’t
actually step back.
“I think you can do better
and I think we deserve bet-
ter,” Bardy said.
She also criticized how
Stephanie’s Cabin, a for-
mer restaurant on neighbor-
ing property also purchased
by Hollander Hospitality,
has fallen into disarray. A
chain link fence surrounds
the building and weeds have
grown up on the grounds.
“It looks abandoned
because it is abandoned,”
Bardy said.
After the meeting, Mullen
said the company hoped to
open a brewery at the former
restaurant and had reached
out to local brewers. No one
is committed to the space yet.
The Historic Landmarks
Commission voted unani-
mously to deny the hotel’s
application, saying the build-
ing is too large for the loca-
tion and that the design
doesn’t fit with either the
Ship Inn or historic buildings
developers referenced in their
application.
Several
commissioners
noted that once a structure
like the hotel goes in, it could
open up the riverfront to sim-
ilar development. Already,
large hotels are present at
the far west and east ends of
Astoria, they said.
Craig Riegelnegg with
Carleton Hart Architecture,
the firm designing the hotel
for Hollander Hospitality, said
they looked at other buildings
in Astoria, including historic
waterfront structures, when
designing the hotel. But both
city boards and critics said
they couldn’t see how historic
elements and Astoria archi-
tecture were reflected in the
final design.
“This building could be
located anywhere,” said
Loretta Maxwell, owner
of the Grandview Bed &
Breakfast.
