Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between Sharp, Camas School District and the City of Camas Regarding Transportation Improvements
Details: Sharp Electronics Corporation (Sharp), Camas School District (CSD) and the City have worked together to jointly plan and provide for transportation improvements that will increase safety and reduce congestion in the vicinity of Sharp’s existing land and facilities bordered by NW 18th Avenue, Payne Road and Pacific Rim Boulevard. The attached MOU supports the ongoing purchase and sale negotiations between Sharp and the CSD regarding parcels currently owned by Sharp, including the existing westerly Sharp building. The transportation improvements identified in the MOU include completion of a new traffic signal at the Payne Road and Pacific Rim Boulevard intersection, closure of the existing “Sharp Drive”, a new Sharp Drive access to Payne Road at the existing Lacey Way intersection and a new access for Sharp onto NW 18th Avenue to be located just east of NW Whitman Street. Staff reviewed the terms of the MOU with Council at the July 5, 2016 Council Workshop.
