  • 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.

    2019–20 YEAR 5 PARKS BOND EXECUTIVE SUMMARY YEAR 5 Dear Portlanders, We are happy to report that 46 of the 52 Bond projects have been completed, with the remaining six projects underway. 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.

    AS AMENDED 5/18/16 Exhibit A substituted ORDINANCE NO. Amend Park System Development Charge Capital Improvements Plan to update the project list (Ordinance, amend Ordinance No. 187150) The City of Portland ordains: Section 1. The Council finds: 1. Ordinance No. 172614, passed by the Council on August 19, 1998 authorized establishment of a Parks and Recreation System Development Charge (SDC) and created a new City Code Chapter 17.13. 2. In October 1998 the City established a Parks SDC program. City Code required that the program be updated every two years to ensure that programgoals were being met. An update was implemented on July 1, 2005 pursuant to Ordinance No. 179008, as amended. The required update reviewed the Parks SDC Program to determine that sufficientmoney will be available to fund capacity-increasing facilities identifiedby the Parks System Development Charge Capital Improvement Plan (Parks SDC-CIP); to determine whether the adopted and indexed SDC rate has kept pace with inflation; to determine whether the Parks SDC-CIP should be modified; and to ensure that SDC receipts will not over-fund such facilities. 3. Ordinance No. 181669, passed by the Council on March 12, 2008 updated Parks and Recreation System Development Charge, increased the calculated Park SDC recovery rate to 75%, established a Non-Residential Parks SDC fee, and implemented a two tiered SDC feestructure consisting of the Central City and the non-Central City areas, and created a new City Code Chapter 17.13. 4.
