  • 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.

  • District Background
    DRAFT SOUTHEAST LIAISON DISTRICT PROFILE DRAFT Introduction In 2004 the Bureau of Planning launched the District Liaison Program which assigns a City Planner to each of Portland’s designated liaison districts. Each planner acts as the Bureau’s primary contact between community residents, nonprofit groups and other government agencies on planning and development matters within their assigned district. As part of this program, District Profiles were compiled to provide a survey of the existing conditions, issues and neighborhood/community plans within each of the liaison districts. The Profiles will form a base of information for communities to make informed decisions about future development. This report is also intended to serve as a tool for planners and decision-makers to monitor the implementation of existing plans and facilitate future planning. The Profiles will also contribute to the ongoing dialogue and exchange of information between the Bureau of Planning, the community, and other City Bureaus regarding district planning issues and priorities. PLEASE NOTE: The content of this document remains a work-in-progress of the Bureau of Planning’s District Liaison Program. Feedback is appreciated. Area Description Boundaries The Southeast District lies just east of downtown covering roughly 17,600 acres. The District is bordered by the Willamette River to the west, the Banfield Freeway (I-84) to the north, SE 82nd and I- 205 to the east, and Clackamas County to the south. Bureau of Planning - 08/03/05 Southeast District Page 1 Profile Demographic Data Population Southeast Portland experienced modest population growth (3.1%) compared to the City as a whole (8.7%).

  • DRAFT: TSP 2035 Existing Conditions and Future Needs Report
    Washington County TSP 2035 • Existing Conditions and Future Needs Report **DRAFT 9/27/12** Chapter 4: Active Transportation and Transit 4.1 ACTIVE TRANSPORTATION OVERVIEW This chapter describes existing conditions and future needs for three “active” modes of travel: walking, bicycling and taking transit. 4.1.1 What is Active Transportation? Active transportation refers to human-powered travel, including walking and bicycling. Public transit is also a component of active transportation because accessing transit stops usually involves walking or bicycling. Widespread use of the term began in the first decade of the 21st century as policymakers placed increased emphasis on non-automobile modes, and as the links between human health and transportation planning became more evident. Active transportation modes are essential components of the overall transportation system, meeting a variety of societal, environmental and economic goals. These include: • Environmental stewardship. In Oregon, approximately 34% of greenhouse gas emissions – the largest share – can be attributed to motor vehicles.1 Replacing automobile trips with active trips reduces the emission of greenhouse gases, air toxics and particulates, helping to improve regional air quality and address one of the leading causes of climate change. • Congestion alleviation. It is simple arithmetic that walk, bike and transit trips reduce the number of motor vehicles vying for space on roadways and in parking lots. The active mode share for commuting from Washington County is about 11%, representing roughly 27,000 people who do not drive to work.2 Reduced congestion improves air quality, quality of life, and economic productivity. • Health. America is facing a health epidemic related to obesity and inactivity.

Through this letter, I hope to share a bit more background on Metro's Parks and Nature Program; provide general comments and concerns on the proposed Comprehensive Plan amendments; and propose plan language amendments for your consideration. Metro seeks edits that support Metro's role as a park service provider and to balance recreational needs and uses with natural resource protection and neighborhood concerns. I would also like to thank Planning Director Michael Cerbone and Multnomah County staff for their work on this complex project. The Comprehensive Plan Amendment Process: The County's Comprehensive Plan update process is largely a citizen-driven process, with the Citizen Advisory Committee (CAC) submitting its recommendations to the County Planning Commission for consideration and discussion. The Planning Commission was the first county government body to review the draft plan and thereafter provide policy guidance to the Board of County Commissioners. Before the Planning Commission, Metro presented comments and concerns, as well as proposed revisions to the County's draftcomprehensive plan language. The Planning Commission heard testimony that supported Metro's positions. The Planning Commission also heard testimony that sought to isolate the County's rural lands and residents.

Among the difficult reductions proposed, Urban Forestry could be effected by elimination of the $185,000 Dutch Elm Disease (DED) Treatment program. The City of Portland has minimized the spread of DED and avoided the decimation of the American elm (Ulmus americana) with a successful elm monitoring and treatment program. Without advanced warning, rapid detection and removal, the American elm could ultimately vanish from our landscape. Eastmoreland, Ladd’s Addition, the South Park blocks, Lents Park, Laurelhurst Park, and Overlook Park are areas where elms play a significant role in neighborhood identity. "Many communities have been able to maintain a healthy population of mature elms through a vigilant program of identification and removal of diseased elms and systematic pruning of weakened, dying or dead branches" -Linda Haugen, Plant Pathologist, USDA Forest Service Eliminating this program will also require adjacent property owners to cover the cost of removing DED- infected street trees themselves. The cut will also reduce citywide 24/7 emergency response to clear roads of trees which have fallen during storms, and reduce regular maintenance of publicly-owned trees- additional activities performed by some of the same staff .
