The Need for the Hillsdale Terrace Redevelopment is driven by the lack of affordable housing options in Southwest Portland and the magnitude of deficiencies in one of only three public housing options in Southwest Portland. The Need for the proposed project is characterized by infrastructure, site, and design deficiencies as well as the effects of the existing Hillsdale Terrace public housing on the surrounding neighborhoods. Please refer to Chapter 2.1.5 (Purpose and Need for the Proposed Action) of this document for a more detailed discussion of the proposed project’s Statement of Purpose and Need. Description of the Proposal: Include all contemplated actions which logically are either geographically or functionally a composite part of the project, regardless of the source of funding. [24 CFR 58.32, 40 CFR 1508.25] This Environmental Assessment considers two alternatives: the No-Build Alternative and the Hillsdale Terrace Redevelopment Alternative. Please refer to Chapter 2.2 (Alternatives Under Consideration) of this document for a detailed description of the alternatives evaluated. Existing Conditions and Trends: Describe the existing conditions of the project area and its surroundings, and trends likely to continue in the absence of the project. [24 CFR 58.40(a)] Please refer to Chapter 3 (Affected Environment and Evaluation of Alternatives) of this document. Additional information is provided in the Hillsdale Terrace Redevelopment Environmental Assessment supporting materials available at Home Forward, 135 SW Ash Street, Portland, Oregon 97204 (Appendix C: Supporting Documents).

    AN ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION OF Michelle Lee Talal for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Environmental Science presented on May 7, 2019 Title: Exploring Urban Parks: Plant Communities, Visitor Experiences, and Manager Perspectives in Portland, Oregon Abstract approved: ______________________________________________________ Mary V. Santelmann Urban parks are biodiversity hotspots within cities and have the potential to provide a range of socio-cultural benefits for people, but may not always meet the needs and desires of park visitors. A variety of land use practices and environmental factors affect urban park biodiversity and vegetation structure, composition, and ecological function, but more studies are needed to compare plant taxonomic composition, biodiversity patterns, and species traits across different types of urban green spaces. Additionally, there is a lack of research that explores park user experiences, vegetation perceptions, and accessibility issues in a range of urban park types interspersed throughout Portland using qualitative methods to observe and interview visitors on-site. More research is also needed that focuses on interviewing park managers about their perspectives on park benefits and management. The findings of my interdisciplinary dissertation may assist managers in their aims to achieve various ecological goals, as well as meet the needs and desires of park visitors within increasingly developed urban areas. The purpose of this research is three-fold, and includes examining: 1) The relationships between plant community composition, biodiversity patterns, environmental variables, and species traits in a range of urban parks in Portland, Oregon; 2) how the vegetation in these urban parks currently meets the needs and desires of visitors; and 3) how park managers currently manage vegetation in the parks to meet the needs and desires of visitors.

Degree awarded December 2012 ii © 2012 Lanbin Ren iii DISSERTATION ABSTRACT Lanbin Ren Doctor of Philosophy Department of Landscape Architecture December 2012 Title: Park-above-Parking Downtown: A Spatial-Based Impact Investigation Parking and parks are both crucial to downtown economic development. Many studies have shown that downtown parks significantly contribute to increasing surrounding property values and attract residents, businesses and investment. Meanwhile, sufficient available parking promotes accessibility to downtown that also contributes to increasing tax revenue for local government. However, both downtown parks and parking raise problems. Many downtown parks have become places for drug dealing, shooting and vandalism since the decline of downtowns in the 1960s. At the same time, residents and visitors alike oftentimes complain about the lack of parking while in fact parking spaces occupy a large amount of land in downtown.
