River Plan / South Reach RECREATION, PARKS, TRAILS & SCENIC RESOURCES WHAT WE’VE LEARNED • Sellwood Riverfront Park is well-used by people and dogs; a master plan would help address user conflicts and delineate recreational opportunities. • The westside’s Willamette Greenway Trail is popular but there are trail alignment challenges due to adjacent development and ownership. • Additional pedestrian accesses and directional signage are needed from the SW Macadam Avenue area to the Willamette Greenway Trail. • Brooklyn neighborhood wants direct access to the Springwater Corridor Trail and the river, but access is a problem due to crossing McLoughlin Blvd. and the steep bank down to the trail and river. • The Springwater Corridor Trail is popular for cyclists and pedestrians. People have expressed concerns about safety and suggested the separation of users. • Adding amenities such as water fountains, restrooms and benches along the Springwater Corridor would enhance the user experience. • People appreciate scenic views of/by the riverfront and want to see views preserved and new views recognized. • A pedestrian connection from River View Natural Area to Powers Marine Park is desired. • A swimming beach on the east side of the river is desired. • The former Staff Jennings site could become a recreational hub that includes picnic tables and access to the river. • A master plan for the Oaks Bottom Natural Area Complex, including Ross Island, is needed to manage habitat, natural resources and public access. • Oaks Amusement Park, a non-profit, is interested in developing a boating dock and swimming beach area, in partnership with others. DRAFT PLAN CONCEPTS – ZONING CODE • Allow limited retail uses and development in the Open Space zone such as light water craft and bicycle rentals and refreshments for purchase to support recreation. • Allow maintenance of parks and natural areas using small machinery. DRAFT PLAN CONCEPTS – ACTION ITEM IDEAS • Fund Portland Parks and Recreation (PP&R) to: • conduct a Sellwood Riverfront Park Master Plan. • conduct a swim beach and dock study, including an evaluation of a public/private partnership with Oaks Amusement Park. • conduct a natural resource management plan for the Oaks Bottom/Ross Island complex. • conduct a master plan for the west side at the former Staff Jennings site. • create a pedestrian connection between River View Natural Area and Powers Marine Park. • conduct construction of the greenway trails on both sides of the river. • Explore funding opportunities to construct Brooklyn neighborhood access to the Springwater Corridor Trail. • Seek funds for design and construction of trail access, safety and user amenity improvements and wayfinding, on both sides of the river. www.portlandoregon.gov/bps/riverplan H G I E L R D E E N R T V Y S A A N A L T I .
