  • Portland Parks and Recreation
    Portland Parks and Recreation CBO has posted the online, interactive version of the bureau’s performance dashboard here: http://www.portlandoregon.gov/cbo/article/523266 The following questions were asked during the bureau’s budget work session. Responses are included in the attached packet. 1. Please provide a breakdown of scholarships by community center. 2. What facilities and parks would be closed if there were no increase in major maintenance funding? 3. Did the increase in the value of scholarships granted correspond to the number or participants in the program? Was there an increase in workload or did the cost of the programs go up? 4. List/plans of the following: Five-year major maintenance queue Five-year SDC funded projects Prior five-year SDC fund projects 5. Please provide descriptions and budget amounts for the two new requests: (1) parks rangers expansion and (2) tree code implementation PP&R Council Budget Questions – Follow up from March 17th Budget presentation: 1) Breakdown of scholarships by community center See Attached Scholarship PDF File 2) What facilities and parks would be closed if there were no increase in major maintenance funding? Rather than close whole facilities or parks when there is inadequate major maintenance funding we reduce levels of service (thin the soup) across the system and we also delay repairs and replacements, thus allowing the risk of failure to increase. Examples are the sewer back up at Sellwood, the sewer failure at Buckman Field House, the emergency culvert failures, etc. The one counter example that resulted a full closure and demolition was the wood play structure at Couch Park.

  • South Waterfront Operations Plan
    South Waterfront, Portland, Oregon Neighborhood Emergency Team (NET) Operations Plan Overview The South Waterfront Neighborhood Emergency Team (NET) is a trained volunteer arm of the Portland Bureau of Emergency Management (PBEM), responsible for providing emergency assistance when deployed by PBEM or self- deploying when communication with PBEM is not possible. South Waterfront NET covers the area from the Ross Island Bridge at the north to and including the south side of Bancroft on the South, and from Interstate 5 on the west to the Willamette River on the east. South Waterfront is a complex community. There are no single-story family residences within its boundaries. Rather, it is composed of several high-rise residential buildings, one of which is a retirement community, three multi-story Oregon Health and Science University buildings, one of which houses overnight patients, one of which has units for longer-term stays for patients and families. In addition, in South Waterfront, there are several (mostly six story) medium-rise residence buildings, three lower grade schools or day care centers, and a variety of shops, restaurants, and professional offices. 1 South Waterfront NET Operations Plan, Nov 30, 2020 South Waterfront NET Leaders Team Co-Leaders (TLs): Laura McKinney and Ed Parker Amateur Radio Operators (AROs): Bill Waldman, Ed Parker, Barbara Short At present, South Waterfront has one NET team. Members of this NET live in various residence buildings and are in the process of developing disaster preparedness groups within their own buildings. With the help of NET members, other residents, referred to as Affiliated Trained Volunteers (ATVs), are being trained to prepare themselves to survive a disaster and to assist their neighbors.

Park advocates, professionals and residents are frequently vocal about the benefi ts of parks. Resi- dents often cite greenways and trails as a top community amenity and voters show a fairly consis- tent willingness to support parks at the ballot. Collectively we cite the natural beauty, relief from noise and stress, and the joy of meeting our neighbors and playing with our children and dogs. At a deeper level we talk about the health, environmental, aesthetic and community benefi ts as well as the value parks provide in terms of stormwater management, fl ood storage, wildlife habitat and air quality. However, in these tough economic times, we need to consider every public investment, including parks, in light of economic realities.

  • South Waterfront Greenway Construction Update May 16, 2013
    South Waterfront Greenway Construction Update May 16, 2013 Hello Neighbors! In anticipation of beginning the next stage of construction, we are reintroducing our twice monthly project updates…. We have included the final update from December 2012 at the end of this to refresh your memory on last year’s work. Construction – Portland Parks & Recreation is planning to resume construction on the South Waterfront Greenway in early June. We are still working out the details of the budget and costs. Construction activities are anticipated to be similar to last summer and fall: earthwork, shallow –water habitat excavation and plantings. We expect to complete major construction in December 2013. The lawn grasses will establish themselves through Spring 2014. Construction fences will be removed once the lawns are sturdy enough to withstand public use. Water Levels - As with last year, we are dependent on the water levels in the Willamette River. Initial indicators (an unseasonably warm spring with minimal rain) suggest that the water levels will fall to an appropriate level. Work hours Mon – Sat, 7 am – 7 pm Osprey – A second Osprey pole was installed on the dolphin at the southern end of the site earlier this year by Bob Sallinger, Audubon Conservation Director. Thanks Bob! The Portland Parks & Recreation website – www.portlandparks.org is the place to go for accurate and up to date information on the progress of the project. We know that construction is inconvenient, messy and sometimes dangerous. By providing accurate and timely information, we will do our best to let you know what to expect. Please let me know if you have any questions, Elizabeth Kennedy-Wong, 503-823-5113 or [email protected] Elizabeth Caruthers Park Caruther Park Construction….
