The plan will address key challenges and opportunities, including maintaining a healthy tree canopy, making the park more accessible for all users, retaining park character while enhancing connections, and providing space for community events. Portland Parks & Recreation began the South Parks Block planning process by convening a community advisory committee to guide the project and launching a community visioning process in Summer 2019 to inform the development of three draft design concepts. The draft concepts were shared with the community in Fall 2019. The feedback on the design concepts guided the development of a draft preferred design. The community engagement approach for this stage of the project was designed to: • Enlist community participation in the design review process with a special focus on PSU students, the Native American Community Advisory Council and Parks Accessibility Advisory Committee; • Explain how community feedback and ideas heard during the draft concept phase influenced the development of Draft Preferred Design; • Gather and understand community feedback on the Draft Preferred Design to develop a preferred park design; and, • Strengthen community relationships and build support for the South Park Blocks and PP&R.

  • Community Advisory Committee Applications Report
    Community Advisory Committee Applications Report March 10, 2020 In the interest of transparency, this report includes verbatim application responses from Community Advisory Committee applicants received by the February 18, 2020 application deadline. 1 | March 10, 2020 Community Advisory Committee Applications Report Aaron Brown Interest: I am applying to represent an organizational interest Affiliation (if any): No More Freeways Organization represented (if any): Neighborhood interest: Primary interest: Urban design Secondary interest: Modes of transportation: Automobile Please tell us why you are interested in participating on this Community Advisory Committee. I am applying to sit on this Community Advisory Committee because, frankly, I'm morbidly curious to find out just how seriously ODOT is committed to public engagement, transparency, and community collaboration as the agency seeks to move forward on this billion dollar megaproject. I have spent approximately ten hours a week (and often times much, much more) for the past three and a half years tracking this proposed freeway expansion and supplementing ODOT's outreach to make sure local neighbors, climate justice advocates, parents and educational leaders, air quality and public health experts, and transportation activists were made aware of the exact discrepancies between the agency's flashy PR about the project and the decades of academic and empirical research. As one of the rabblerousers of No More Freeways, our organization has answered the calling to make sure that actual, independent community voices concerned about climate change, air pollution, traffic congestion, traffic safety, and bicycle/pedestrian/transit infrastructural improvements actually had a chance to proactively shape this mammoth infrastructure project that current and future generations of Oregonians will live with for the rest of their lives.

  • Ted Wheeler's Testimony to Congress on Portland Climate Policies
    The Oregonian Fact check: Ted Wheeler’s testimony to Congress on Portland climate policies By Gordon Friedman July 17, 2019 Mayor Ted Wheeler testified on Wednesday about Portland’s climate policies before a panel of U.S. Senate Democrats in Washington, D.C. The panel, called the Senate Democrats’ Special Committee on the Climate Crisis, is to examine the effects of climate change in the United States and “mobilize action and support for bold climate solutions,” according to its webpage. Wheeler testified alongside the mayors of Honolulu, Atlanta, Saint Paul and Pittsburgh in the committee’s first hearing, which was convened for testimony on “climate action at the local level.” In his testimony, Wheeler touted Portland’s eco-conscious credentials and said the city was “living proof” that environmentalism and a strong economy can go hand in hand. Wheeler said the climate crisis is “undoubtedly the greatest challenge we face this generation” and can only be solved by teamwork on a scale never seen before. He also made a number of claims about what Portland is doing to address climate change. The Oregonian/OregonLive fact checked them. Claim: Portland was the first municipality to adopt a climate action plan when it did so in 1993. “We’ve been earnestly tackling the issue of climate change for over 25 years,” Wheeler said. Fact check: Portland did enact a “Carbon Dioxide Reduction Strategy” in 1993 and was the first city to do so, making it an early leader in the fight against climate change. However, Portland was one of 14 municipalities that jointly adopted similar plans as part of the Urban CO2 Reduction Project.

  • Take a Hike, Pdx!
    TAKE A HIKE, PDX! A mini-guide to hiking and walking resources in and around Portland, Oregon. By Janet Farr, Author, Boomers on the Loose® in Portland (see page 10 for more information.) Need ideas for keeping up your 10,000 daily steps walking program? You’re in the right place. As we know, walking and hiking regularly is the easiest, low-cost way to good health and fitness. Experts recommend a goal of 150 to 300 minutes per week or 10,000 steps (about 4 miles) per day. To get started, get a good pair of walking shoes and comfortable socks and workout clothes. Join a group of like-minded people. Or find a walking buddy to keep you both on track. But for many, a little variety in activity and scenery helps. And there’s no better place than our own amazing part of the county for stepping it up. Make hikes and walks an excuse to see more of your family and friends, or meet new people. Or for some me time. Head out in your own neighborhood. Take in the scenery, the people and neighborhood parks and gardens. Then explore communities and neighborhoods beyond your own; discover out- of-the-way parks, trails and fun little towns. Check a neighborhood’s walk score (walkscore.com/score) which tells you how easy and safe it is to walk to shopping, activities and transportation. Or check out walking and hiking trails around town. Surround yourself with real forests and mountains, rivers and wetlands. Step it up and venture to other neighborhoods.
