	Tualatin Commons in Tualatin, Oregon : UnSprawl Case Study : Terrain.org
		Tualatin, which takes its name from the river that meanders along its northern board, is the Atfalati Indian word for "lazy." Though the region was settled in the 1850s, Tualatin was not incorporated until 1913.
		Tualatin was able to construct the infrastructure and other public aspects of the Commons without having to raise additional revenue—after land sales achieving a net public cost of only $2 million.
		Tualatin lacked a strong identity of its own and was in danger of becoming simply an ordinary suburb—that is, until a combination of circumstances and vision and hard work led to a solution: the development of a central place, a downtown, a civic "living room" on a 19-acre site.

		Still, certain portions of the river should not be held to a slow-no wake limit, preventing boaters from moving up and down the river more quickly with little risk to the environment or other river users.
		Having recreational boats on the river while helicopters are carrying and placing trees along the river would be very hazardous, according to the ODFW request.
