    Chapter 7. Parks and Recreation Element

    1 Chapter 7. Parks and Recreation Element 2 7.1. Introduction 3 Parks, recreational facilities, and open space are generally considered beneficial resources and 4 essential contributors to a community’s quality of life. Located within the County are a number 5 of different types of parks and recreational facilities. 6 The County has not traditionally served as a provider of park and recreation facilities. Local 7 cities, private agencies, federal agencies, and schools have an established history of furnishing 8 these services. 9 The purpose of this element is to evaluate parks and recreation facilities in the County and to 10 develop goals and policies that guide management and coordination of them. 11 7.1.1. Applicable Growth Management Act Goals 12 GMA planning goals that are applicable to the Parks and Recreation Element include the 13 following: 14 . Open space and recreation. Retain open space, enhance recreational opportunities, conserve 15 fish and wildlife habitat, increase access to natural resource lands and water, and develop 16 parks and recreation facilities (Revised Code of Washington [RCW] 36.70A.020(9)). 17 . Public facilities and services. Ensure that those public facilities and services necessary to 18 support development shall be adequate to serve the development at the time the development 19 is available for occupancy and use without decreasing current service levels below locally 20 established minimum standards (RCW 36.70A.020(12)). 21 . Historic preservation. Identify and encourage the preservation of lands, sites, and structures 22 that have historical or archaeological significance (RCW 36.70A.020(13)). 23 Goals described in the Shoreline Management Act (SMA) also support the Parks and Recreation 24 Element.

More than 100 attended. We now have 106 members as the chapter continues to grow. The exciting Columbia River brunch/cruise and joint gathering with the Washington State Chapter on April 25 is shaping up to be a memorable experience. See the meeting information on page 7. I was not aware, until recently, of a very disturbing trend relating to the Oregon Legislature's biennial appropriations to our State Historical Society (OHS). Over the last decade the OHS funding has been decreased by more than 50%, while public visitation to their superb exhibits, library, archives and requests for technical services to county historical societies continue to increase. Our neighboring Northwest state legislatures all fund their historical societies at levels 3 to 6 times more than the OR Legislature allocates OHS. That is an incredible and unjustified difference. Oregon's rich history and what it means to our citizens educationally and economically deserves better. As you know, the OHS has been the principal force behind the planning for the L & C Bicentennial. The OHS staff, although extremely competent and diligent, simply cannot meet the challenges ahead without adequate funding. If you know someone in the OR Legislature I hope you will write, expressing your concerns.

  • July 17 Activities for Lewis & Clark Buffs in the Columbia Gorge

    July 17 Activities for Lewis & Clark Buffs in the Columbia Gorge

    July 17 Activities for Lewis & Clark Buffs in the Columbia Gorge Question for the month: what is Opuntia polyacantha? Or Sagittaria latifolia? We know them as prickly pear cactus and wapato roots. On Saturday, July 17, join Dr. Gary Moulton for an educational and entertaining evening in the heart of the Columbia Gorge: The Garden of the Lewis and Clark Expedition. Using slides, quotes from the Journals and anecdotes from his own research, Dr. Moulton will share the fascinating story of the expedition's well-traveled botanical specimens. His lecture will begin at 7:00 p.m. in the auditorium of the Columbia Gorge Interpretive Center. Your Washington State Chapter is a co-sponsor of this lecture, along with the Columbia Gorge Interpretive Center, the Governor's [Washington State] Lewis and Clark Trail Committee, Skamania Lodge, & the Lewis and Clark Trail Heritage Foundation. The lecture is free & open to the public. We encourage attendees to make a voluntary donation while visiting the Center. Dr. Moulton's lecture is one of three activities planned by your chapter on July 17. The day also includes an afternoon board meeting and planning session regarding the future direction of the Washington Chapter from 2:30-5:00 p.m. at the Columbia Gorge Interpretive Center. Our chapter is still new, and this meeting will focus on planning future direction for the chapter, its meetings and projects. One challenge in this planning process is the large number of agencies and groups involved in Lewis and Clark activities, understanding their common and separate missions and objectives, and finding our chapter's unique place in this fabric.
