Warner, Executive Director SUBJECT: Report Number 09-14 Waterfront Park and MAX Retail Construction Contract Amendments EXECUTIVE SUMMARY BOARD ACTION REQUESTED Adopt Resolution No. 6669 Adopt Resolution No. 6670 ACTION SUMMARY These actions will authorize an increase to the construction contracts for the Waterfront Park and the MAX Retail / Burnside Bridge improvement projects (Projects): • Brown Contracting Contract increase of $359,857, from $10,261,236 to $10,621,093 • Cedar Mill Construction Contract increase of $215,449, from $951,214 to $1,166,663 • Total increase for both Brown and Cedar Mill: $575,306 Several causes have led to the cost increases, including: • Increased costs for utility connections • Unforeseen subsurface conditions in Waterfront Park and MAX Retail • Design related issues, including drawing errors and omissions that resulted in increased design fees and additional Portland Parks & Recreation (PP&R) staff time • Recent unforeseen weather impacts The Projects are under a compressed schedule, to accommodate the Portland Saturday Market move to Waterfront Park in time for their 2009 season. PUBLIC BENEFIT The Projects are part of the Ankeny Burnside Development Framework adopted by the Board on December 13, 2006 (Resolution #6420), and implementation supports the permanent home for Portland Saturday Market, Mercy Corps World Headquarters (80,000 square feet, $37 million historic rehabilitation and new construction), the White Stag / University of Oregon Portland Center (133,000 square feet, $33 million historic rehabilitation) and the disposition of Block 8 between NW Naito Pkwy., 1st Ave., Couch and Davis (anticipated historic rehabilitation and new construction).

  • A Report on the 2003 Parks Levy Investment Objective 1: Restore
    A Report on the 2003 Parks Levy Investment In November 2002, Portland voters approved a five-year Parks Levy to begin in July 2003. Levy dollars restored budget cuts made in FY 2002-03 as well as major services and improvements outlined in the Parks 2020 Vision plan adopted by City Council in July 2001. In order to fulfill our obligation to the voters, we identified four key objectives. This report highlights what we have accomplished to date. Objective 1: Restore $2.2 million in cuts made in 2002/03 budget The 2003 Parks Levy restored cuts that were made to balance the FY 2002-03 General Fund budget. These cuts included the closure of some recreational facilities, the discontinuation and reduction of some community partnerships that provide recreational opportunities for youth, and reductions in maintenance of parks and facilities. Below is a detailed list of services restored through levy dollars. A. Restore programming at six community schools. SUN Community Schools support healthy social and cross-cultural development of all participants, teach and model values of respect and inclusion of all people, and help reduce social disparities and inequities. Currently, over 50% of students enrolled in the program are children of color. 2003/04 projects/services 2004/05 projects/services Proposed projects/services 2005/06 Hired and trained full-time Site Coordinators Total attendance at new sites (Summer Continue to develop programming to serve for 6 new PP&R SUN Community Schools: 2004-Spring 2005): 85,159 the needs of each school’s community and Arleta, Beaumont, Centennial, Clarendon, increase participation in these programs.

The City selected the five following districts to participate in the program in order to promote sustainability across a diverse set of neighborhood “typologies”: • Portland State University - South of Market Ecodistrict (“SoMa”) • North Macadam Urban Renewal Area - South Waterfront Ecodistrict • Lents Urban Renewal Area - Foster-Green Ecodistrict • Gateway Urban Renewal Area - Gateway Ecodistrict • Lloyd District - Lloyd Ecodistrict This evaluation is one element of a four-part Bullitt funded project to more deeply understand best practices for district and neighborhood sustainable development in the region. The four elements are: Portland Pilot program evaluation; analysis of neighborhood sustainability projects in the Cascadia Region; update of the EcoDistricts Protocol; and a technical guide for green infrastructure and ecosystem services. All four elements of this project have been designed to inform the development of the Global EcoDistricts Protocol and other EcoDistricts-initiated programs intended to accelerate district-scale sustainable development in the region and beyond.

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.
