Your investment has been used wisely. Year 5 of the Bond started out as planned: • In July 2019, Commissioner Fish cut the ribbon on the completely overhauled Peninsula Pool. • In October 2019, the community gathered to celebrate a more accessible playground at Glenhaven Park. • Construction wrapped up on the installation of new play pieces and drainage repairs at over 30 parks. Sadly, 2020 started off with the loss of our colleague and beloved Parks Commissioner, Nick Fish. And then COVID-19 hit. With some adaptations, Bond projects stayed on track. Construction began on a new playground for Creston Park, and we completed a new playground at Verdell Burdine Rutherford Park, the first Portland park to be named solely after a Black woman. The public health crisis was followed by a groundswell of action for racial justice. Now, our parks and open spaces are even more precious than ever, serving as shared public spaces to exercise our bodies, our minds, and our voices. While this Bond could only tackle the most critical maintenance needs, it has given us all a glimpse of what we can achieve together. Let’s continue to create a more sustainable and more equitable future for our city and our parks. Stay safe, stay healthy, and stay hopeful. Sincerely, Commissioner Amanda Fritz Portland Parks & Recreation Director Adena Long 1 PARKS BOND EXECUTIVE SUMMARY YEAR 5 46Projects completed Glenhaven Park playground opening celebration Projects6 underway Peninsula Pool opening celebration Current3 projects ahead of or on schedule Marshall Park bridge construction 2 PARKS BOND EXECUTIVE SUMMARY YEAR 5 NORTH Acquisitions at Cathedral, Open Meadow.

The new shop “will be a big step forward and an improvement for worker health and safety,” he says. “Urban Forestry will be better prepared to respond to tree emergencies.” He adds, “Now I finally feel that my More to trails work as a City employee is valued…” than just recreation Read Frank’s story at Dave Manville, a SWTrails board member, ParksReplacementBond.org notes that the new Bond-funded bridges in the Foley-Balmer Natural Area and Marshall Park are not just for recreation. “The bridges and the surrounding trails and greenways make up a network for casual walks and getting to important activity centers such as bus stops.” “You see all sorts of people—hikers, runners, dog walkers, families,” Mike Charles, chair of the Marshall Park Neighborhood Association says. “Having these natural trails within the city limits is amazing, especially during the stay-close- to-home restrictions of COVID-19. The parks and trails are being used more than ever…” Read Dave and Mike’s story at ParksReplacementBond.org 5 PARKS BOND EXECUTIVE SUMMARY YEAR 5 She didn’t seek the limelight With Lynchview Park already slated for improvements, it was only fitting that its name also be updated. The new name is Verdell Burdine Rutherford Park. Verdell and her husband, Otto, were leaders of the Oregon NAACP and helped pass the Public Accommodations Act in 1953, which outlawed discrimination in public places. Charlotte says that her mother, who passed away in 2001, was a hardworking volunteer and community activist, and although she didn’t “seek the limelight, she would have accepted this honor humbly, The important knowing that this park will provide a place work of play for the community to gather together…” Esther Arellano Harlow, a Roseway Read Charlotte’s story at resident, couldn’t be happier with Bond- ParksReplacementBond.org funded renovations at Glenhaven Park. The park has always been a place where people meet neighbors and kids would play in the mud on rainy days. But the park wasn’t a playground destination. “It felt very hot and exposed during the summer, and it seemed like people didn’t stay long,” Esther recalls. The new playground shows that “children are considered important community members who need special places of their own to meet and do the important work of play.” Of course, to her kids, “it is pure fun…” Read Esther’s story at ParksReplacementBond.org 6 PARKS BOND EXECUTIVE SUMMARY YEAR 5 Performance Design and Permits Contracting Construction Expected Completion Playgrounds Couch Park• Done Creston Park• 2020 Gabriel Park• 2021 Gilbert Primary Park• Done Glenhaven Park• Done Kenton Park• Done Lents Park• Done Playground Pieces & Drainage• Done North Park Blocks• Done Ventura Park• Done (formerly Lynchview Park) Verdell Burdine Rutherford Park• Done Trails and Bridges Foley-Balmer Natural Area• Done Forest Park: Lower Macleay Trail• Done Forest Park: Maple Trail• Done Marshall Park• Done Springwater Corridor Bridge #48• Done Springwater Corridor Bridge #140• Done Pools Grant Pool• Done Matt Dishman Pool and Spa• Done Peninsula Park Pool Feasibility Study• Done Peninsula Park Pool• Done Protecting Workers Mt.

  • Portland Parks and Recreation
    Portland Parks and Recreation CBO has posted the online, interactive version of the bureau’s performance dashboard here: http://www.portlandoregon.gov/cbo/article/523266 The following questions were asked during the bureau’s budget work session. Responses are included in the attached packet. 1. Please provide a breakdown of scholarships by community center. 2. What facilities and parks would be closed if there were no increase in major maintenance funding? 3. Did the increase in the value of scholarships granted correspond to the number or participants in the program? Was there an increase in workload or did the cost of the programs go up? 4. List/plans of the following: Five-year major maintenance queue Five-year SDC funded projects Prior five-year SDC fund projects 5. Please provide descriptions and budget amounts for the two new requests: (1) parks rangers expansion and (2) tree code implementation PP&R Council Budget Questions – Follow up from March 17th Budget presentation: 1) Breakdown of scholarships by community center See Attached Scholarship PDF File 2) What facilities and parks would be closed if there were no increase in major maintenance funding? Rather than close whole facilities or parks when there is inadequate major maintenance funding we reduce levels of service (thin the soup) across the system and we also delay repairs and replacements, thus allowing the risk of failure to increase. Examples are the sewer back up at Sellwood, the sewer failure at Buckman Field House, the emergency culvert failures, etc. The one counter example that resulted a full closure and demolition was the wood play structure at Couch Park.

  • Citizens Advisory Committee Announces Recommendations for Locations of Future Skateparks
    NEWS RELEASE CONTACT May 19, 2005 Bryan Aptekar Community Relations Portland Parks & Recreation (503) 823-5594 Citizens Advisory Committee Announces Recommendations for Locations of Future Skateparks Citizens Advisory Committee Recommends 19 Sites Throughout Portland Glenhaven Park Recommended as Site for Next City Skatepark After 18 months, more than two dozen public meetings, and a series of site visits, the SkatePark Leadership Advisory Team (SPLAT) has made its recommendations to Portland Parks & Recreation (PP&R) for a system of 19 skatepark sites to be developed in the City of Portland. Two of the skateparks will be developed within the next three years, and the rest to follow, as funding permits. SPLAT is a citizens advisory group that was convened in 2003. At their final meeting on May 10th they completed 18 months of work to meet the need for safe, legal recreational opportunities for the city’s estimated 30,000+ skateboarders, freestyle BMX bike riders and other action sport enthusiasts. Advisory Committee Creates Vision for “System of Skateparks” The recommended sites reflect the SPLAT’s vision for a system of skateparks consisting of one regional, several district, and many small neighborhood skatespots. The regional park will be more than 25,000 square feet (sf) in size and would be sited in a non- residential area. The district parks will be at least 10,000 sf (smaller than two tennis courts) and would potentially be covered and lit for extended hours use. The smaller neighborhood skatespots will be typically less than 8,000 sf (the size of one tennis court) and would serve a more limited number of users.

  • The Fields Neighborhood Park Community Questionnaire Results March-April 2007
    The Fields Neighborhood Park Community Questionnaire Results March-April 2007 A Community Questionnaire was included in the initial project newsletter, which was mailed to over 4,000 addresses in the vicinity of the park site (virtually the entire neighborhood) as well as other interested parties. The newsletter was made available for pick-up at Chapman School and Friendly House and made available electronically as well. A total of 148 questionnaires were submitted, either by mail or on the web, by the April 20 deadline. The following summarizes the results. 1. The original framework plan for the River District Parks suggested three common elements that would link the parks together. Which do you feel should be included in The Fields neighborhood park? 100 90 80 70 60 50 40 30 20 10 0 Boardwalk Pedestrian Gallery Aquifer 2. This park is envisioned as a “neighborhood park no answ er – over two square blocks providing more traditional spaces for neighborhood residents. Do you agree ? with this overall concept? no yes Comments Regarding Question #2 “Traditional Neighborhood Park” #1 - None (of the original “framework concepts” are important What to you mean by "traditional" As long as this park does not become filthy (ie. bad terrain, homeless) like the waterfront, I'm for it. Excellent idea. A traditional park will be a nice complement to the other two parks. I don't know if my selections were recorded above. A continuation of the boardwalk is essential to making the connection between and among the parks. The design of the buildings around the park has narrowed the feeling of openness so it is beginning to look like a private park for the residential buildings surrounding it.

    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.

  • PP Annual Report Exec Summary V4.Indd
    2015–16 Dear Portlanders: Thank you for your recent commitment to repairing and improving Portland’s parks. In November 2014, you and an impressive 74 percent of Portlanders voted “Yes” for the Parks Replacement Bond Projects26 underway — the highest percentage ever for a Parks ballot measure. You became part of a long tradition of Portlanders who’ve built and maintained our city’s enviable collection of park facilities. In this fi rst full year of the Bond, from July 2015 to July 2016, we’ve laid the foundation for the work to be done. In this upcoming year, you’ll start to see tangible results in the parks. Replacement of the 70 to 90 year old mechanical systems at Grant Pool was the fi rst completed project, and next year, results will be visible across the city. Project1 completed About every nine years over the last century, Portlanders have invested in increasing, preserving and maintaining our park system by voting “yes” on parks bonds or levies. Before the 2014 bond, the last major bond was in 1994, meaning 20 years passed without signifi cant park improvements or address- ing dire repair needs. Portland Parks & Recreation anticipates a $248 million funding gap for major maintenance needs over the next 10 years. The $68 million in funds from the 2014 Parks Replacement Bond will not address all of these maintenance issues, but it is vital to fi xing, upgrading and replacing the most crucial of these needs. Projects18 ahead of As your Parks Commissioner and Parks Director, we are making sure the funds will be used wisely and schedule maximize benefi ts to the greatest number of park users.
