Interstate Corridor Urban Renewal Area Advisory Committee Portland Parks & Recreation Kathleen (Kip) Wadden, Project Manager & Portland Development Commission John Southgate, Interstate Project Manager July 14, 2003 2 Executive Summary Parks in the Interstate Corridor will be safe places that provide residents with quality outdoor areas for relaxation and play in spaces that are separate and apart from the built environment. Interstate CAC Vision Statement From July 2002 to July 2003 staff from Portland Parks & Recreation (PP&R) collaborated with the Interstate Parks Citizen Advisory Committee (CAC) to produce a Parks Needs Assessment. This project was funded through the Portland Development Commission (PDC). The Needs Assessment provides a prioritized list of the more pressing capital projects for the 12 parks in the Interstate Corridor Urban Renewal Area (ICURA). Each year the CAC will make recommendations to PDC about allocating urban renewal funds for parks. The Needs Assessment provides background and direction for those choices. It provides a flexible 5 year capital improvement scenario with a more defined look at the next two years. The CAC can use the Needs Assessment each time it revisits its short and long term strategies for improving parks, trails and open spaces in the Interstate Corridor URA. When assessing the 12 parks in ICURA only the “out of door” park space was considered. Pools and community centers sited in several parks were excluded from review, as were school properties. In addition, the project looked at the NEEDS of existing parks and did not address deficiencies in recreational resources, population growth or changing recreational trends. Recreational facility and acreage needs were discussed but it was agreed that they are elements of a future CAC work plan. Since the allocation of urban remewal funding will be low in the first 5 years, this initial CAC planning effort focused on short term goals (2003-2008) and smaller scale projects. Over the long term the ambitions for parks and open spaces are more visionary. As funding increases over 20 years the CAC efforts will work to fully realize their vision statement. 3 Table of Contents i. Purpose of the Parks Needs Assessment I. Project Background II.

  • 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.

Introduction 1.1 Nature of the Metro Council's Action This action adopts a Land Use Final Order (LUFO) for the Columbia River Crossing (CRC) Project, which is an element of the larger South/North Corridor Project. The action is taken pursuant to Oregon Laws 1996 (Special Session), Chapter 12 (referred to herein as "House Bill 3478" or "the Act"), which directs the Metro Council (Council) to issue LUFOs establishing the light rail route, light rail stations, park-and-ride lots and maintenance facilities, and any highway improvements to be included in the South/North Project, including their locations (i.e. the boundaries within which these facilities and improvements may be located). 1 This LUFO is the fifth in a series of LUFOs the Council has adopted for the South/North Project. The previously adopted LUFOs are as follows: • On July 23, 1998, the Metro Council adopted Resolution No. 98-2673 (the 1998 LUFO), establishing the initial light rail route, stations, lots and maintenance facilities and the highway improvements, including their locations, for the South/North Project. • On October 28, 1999, the Metro Council adopted Resolution No. 99-2853A (the 1999 LUFO), amending the 1998 LUFO to reflect revisions for that portion of the South/North Project extending from the Steel Bridge northward to the Portland Metropolitan Exposition Center (Expo Center), primarily along Interstate Avenue.

  • Summary of Public Comments on Skatepark Sites
    Summary of Public Comments on Skatepark Sites This document is a summary of the public comments received during the November 2004 public comments on potential skatepark sites around the City. They are a compilation of handwritten and web-based comment forms, as well as comments from people who attended the series of three public workshops on the project. Members of the Skatepark Leadership Advisory Team (SPLAT) read and reviewed the comments on each site. Each wrote up a few of the site summaries below. Basic Details about the Meetings: Three Public Workshops were held on Wednesday 11/10/04 and Saturday 11/13/04. • Total attendance at these three workshops was roughly 75 people. Staffing details: • Twelve committee members, including each of the representatives for the Neighborhood Coalitions joined us for at least one of the meetings. • A total of eleven PP&R staff volunteered time (some for several meetings) to help staff the events. • The noise control office had a staff person join us for two out of the three meetings. • Neighborhood Association members, school principals, users, parents and concerned citizens were in attendance On-Line Survey Comments from the Public • The majority of folks who attended the meetings chose to fill out their comment forms on-line, as we received very few paper comment forms back from those in attendance at our meetings. • A total of 654 comments were received on 35 potential sites. • 103 people responded to the general questions about use of skateparks and demographic information. • Of those that filled
