Greenspace Portland
GREENSPACE PORTLAND CITY OF PORTLAND The City of Portland Parks & Recreation (PP&R) Bureau manages most of the protected natural areas within the city limits. Other large natural area sites include Metro’s Smith and Bybee Lakes Wildlife Area and Oregon State Parks’ Tryon Creek State Natural Area. Additional natural areas are held by Portland’s Bureau of Environmental Services (BES), organizations such the Port of Portland, Three Rivers Land Conservancy and private neighborhood associations. Natural area settings in Portland include forests, meadows, wetlands, streams and riverbanks. The 7,000 acres currently managed by PP&R as natural area are primarily forest (85 percent) and represent the range of forest types naturally occurring in the region including upland Douglas fir stands, ash and cottonwood riparian forests, and younger deciduous forest types. Open woodlands, such as those dominated by Oregon white oak, account for another eight percent of the system. Shrublands and grasslands, including wetland marshes and scrubs, and upland sites occur less frequently but offer unique habitat features. Land Acquisition Program Property acquisitions for park purposes are made possible through a variety of resources. In some cases, funds are obtained for purchase of a specific piece of property through grants or special one-time allocations from City Council. Previous bond measures have also provided resources for park acquisition. However, the Park System Development Charge (SDC) is currently the primary funding source to meet the need created by growth for acquisition of land for future parks and recreation facilities. These funds can also be used for development. SDC funds are generated by a one-time fee that is charged to new residential development at the time the building permit is issued. -

The Brazos Valley Groundwater Conservation District: a Case
THE BRAZOS VALLEY GROUNDWATER CONSERVATION DISTRICT: A CASE STUDY IN TEXAS GROUNDWATER CONSERVATION Katherine D. Teel, B.A. Thesis Prepared for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS August 2011 APPROVED: Randolph B. Campbell, Major Professor Andrew Torget, Committee Member J. Todd Moye, Committee Member Richard McCaslin, Chair of the Department of History James D. Meernik, Acting Dean of the Toulouse Graduate School Teel, Katherine D. The Brazos Valley Groundwater Conservation District: A case study in Texas groundwater conservation. Master of Arts (History), August 2011, 90 pp., 6 illustrations, bibliography, 110 titles. This thesis examines the history of groundwater management through the development of groundwater conservation districts in Texas. Political, economic, ideological, and scientific understandings of groundwater and its regulation varied across the state, as did the natural resource types and quantities, which created a diverse and complicated position for lawmakers and landowners. Groundwater was consistently interpreted as a private property right and case law protected unrestricted use for the majority of the twentieth-century even as groundwater resources crossed property and political boundaries, and water tables declined particularly during the second-half of the century. The case study of the Brazos Valley Groundwater Conservation District describes the complicated history of groundwater in Texas as the state attempted to balance natural resource legislation and private property rights and illuminate groundwater’s importance for the future. Copyright 2011 by Katherine D. Teel ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to personally thank my committee for leading me through the thesis process and degree. The entire committee was helpful and encouraging throughout, consistently challenged my academic abilities, and pushed me to develop as a historian. -
