The Beaverton Resource Guide (BRG) is a free monthly community paper written, edited and published in Beaverton, by Beaverton residents and for the businesses and people of Beaverton, Oregon, USA. Cedar House Media published the first edition in April of 2011 featuring local businesses, community news, and the Farmers Market. That first issue was 16 pages. Today, the paper is 32 pages and sponsored by a diverse cross section of public and private community organizations.
Beaverton has so many positive attributes and many go unnoticed. The BRG is our way of giving back to the community by highlighting what makes our city a great place to live, work and shop. With a focus on small, local businesses, we’d like to encourage our neighbors to first visit nearby stores and give them a chance before moving on to businesses outside our community.
With our unique layout, colorful design and exclusive community content, our readers are beyond loyal. Not only do they want to know "What's Happening in Beaverton This Month" but they also agree with our philosophy of: "Shop Local - Give Local - Stay Local."
As a business in the Beaverton area, your ad will be seen by those who are most willing to go out of their way to keep their dollars close to home. These shoppers, your potential new customers, also happen to be our best readers! In addition, we don’t print massive quantities and mail them out to uninterested parties. Our papers are located in convenient and high traffic locations ready to be picked up by those who love Beaverton. With low rates, targeted distribution and a willingness to provide more value than what you pay for, you'll find that we're just as interested in stretching your advertising dollar as you are!

Tualatin Hills Park & Recreation District: connecting people, parks and nature
by Bill Evans, THPRD
A unique project funded by THPRD’s 2008 voter-
approved bond measure is taking shape in several of the district’s most popular natural areas.“Nature Revealed: Discovering Nature through Art” funds natural resource art installations at ve natural areas and parks. The project was conceived to educate patrons about natural history and the environment, encourage them to connect with nature, and foster repeat visitation to parks. “We’re excited to offer a new, engaging, and artistic way for our
patrons to connect with nature in our parks,” said Kristin Atman, interpretive programs supervisor and the project’s manager. “It’s a rst for our district.”
The rst installation was completed in August at the Jordan Woods Natural Area in Cedar Mill. “Mossuments” consists of three large granite sculptures that focus on the small things in nature (e.g., moss) in a grand, monumental way.“It was fun for my 8-year-old son,” said area resident Michael Barton, who regularly visits park sites with his family. “I told him there would be things to look for on the trail, and that became his pursuit, to nd the installations before I found them.”The granite blocks aren’t dif cult to nd; they’re huge (9,000 pounds).Each stone has appropriate pH
levels to allow moss to grow, which means they will constantly be changed by nature. “This particular installation is about how nature happens over time, in particular with the growth of moss on structures,” Barton said. “My son got excited thinking about coming back in the future and seeing what changes actually happened.”Two other installations are at various stages of completion. “Tree Tectonics” at Raleigh Swim Center and Park features two large granite sculptures highlighting geological processes that have been placed intentionally next to trees that will interact with the stones as they grow. At Greenway Park, trees will be planted among three granite compositions engraved with poetry. These installations are
meant to change, grow, shift, heave, and evolve over time as the trees reach maturity. The stones have been placed in the park; trees will be planted later this fall.Two other installations are scheduled:
Hazeldale Park Bethany
Lake Park and Rock Creek Greenway

Q: Is speeding up to get through a yel-low light legal as long as my front
tires enter the intersection before the light turns red?
A: No. Under ‘ORS 811.260, Appropriate Driver Responses to Traffic Control Devices’, a driver facing a steady curcular yellow signal must do the following: The driver shall stop at the intersection. If a driver cannot stop in safety, the driver may drive cautiously through the intersection.
Q: I drive a delivery van and was told by a store man-ager that I could park in the striped space in front
of the store. The space just left of the striped space is a disabled parking space. Is it legal for me to park in the striped space that is next to a disabled space?
A: (No) Oregon Revised Statute 811.615, “a person commits the offense of unlawful parking in a space reserved for persons with disabilities if the person parks a vehicle in the aisle regardless of whether or not the vehicle displays a disabled person parking permit”. Aisle spaces are the space next to a disabled space and are used for unloading wheelchairs from the side of a vehicle.
Q: Can a person park in a disabled parking space if there is no sign but just the symbol on the
ground?
A: (No) Oregon Revised Statute 811.615 “A person commits the offense of unlawful parking in a space reserved for persons with disabilities if the person parks a vehicle in any parking space that is on private or public property and that is marked or signed to provide parking for persons with disabilities and the vehicle does not conspicuously display a disabled person parking permit”.

Synopsis: HART Theatre is again presenting our Playwrights’ Showcase, taking a unique look at the creative process which takes a playwright’s work from page to stage with readings from previously unproduced plays or works in progress. Actors will read the scene(s), followed by a discussion of what has just been presented. There will be six readings in all. Bring your inner director, be prepared to discuss what you’ve seen, and don’t forget your imagination! Our panel of judges will select one of the works to be produced in July of 2015.
Classes are Fridays, Oct. 3, 10, 17, 24 (noon-2:30pm) at Beaverton Lodge,
