  • 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.

  • District Background
    DRAFT SOUTHEAST LIAISON DISTRICT PROFILE DRAFT Introduction In 2004 the Bureau of Planning launched the District Liaison Program which assigns a City Planner to each of Portland’s designated liaison districts. Each planner acts as the Bureau’s primary contact between community residents, nonprofit groups and other government agencies on planning and development matters within their assigned district. As part of this program, District Profiles were compiled to provide a survey of the existing conditions, issues and neighborhood/community plans within each of the liaison districts. The Profiles will form a base of information for communities to make informed decisions about future development. This report is also intended to serve as a tool for planners and decision-makers to monitor the implementation of existing plans and facilitate future planning. The Profiles will also contribute to the ongoing dialogue and exchange of information between the Bureau of Planning, the community, and other City Bureaus regarding district planning issues and priorities. PLEASE NOTE: The content of this document remains a work-in-progress of the Bureau of Planning’s District Liaison Program. Feedback is appreciated. Area Description Boundaries The Southeast District lies just east of downtown covering roughly 17,600 acres. The District is bordered by the Willamette River to the west, the Banfield Freeway (I-84) to the north, SE 82nd and I- 205 to the east, and Clackamas County to the south. Bureau of Planning - 08/03/05 Southeast District Page 1 Profile Demographic Data Population Southeast Portland experienced modest population growth (3.1%) compared to the City as a whole (8.7%).

  • The Fields Neighborhood Park Community Questionnaire Results March-April 2007
    The Fields Neighborhood Park Community Questionnaire Results March-April 2007 A Community Questionnaire was included in the initial project newsletter, which was mailed to over 4,000 addresses in the vicinity of the park site (virtually the entire neighborhood) as well as other interested parties. The newsletter was made available for pick-up at Chapman School and Friendly House and made available electronically as well. A total of 148 questionnaires were submitted, either by mail or on the web, by the April 20 deadline. The following summarizes the results. 1. The original framework plan for the River District Parks suggested three common elements that would link the parks together. Which do you feel should be included in The Fields neighborhood park? 100 90 80 70 60 50 40 30 20 10 0 Boardwalk Pedestrian Gallery Aquifer 2. This park is envisioned as a “neighborhood park no answ er – over two square blocks providing more traditional spaces for neighborhood residents. Do you agree ? with this overall concept? no yes Comments Regarding Question #2 “Traditional Neighborhood Park” #1 - None (of the original “framework concepts” are important What to you mean by "traditional" As long as this park does not become filthy (ie. bad terrain, homeless) like the waterfront, I'm for it. Excellent idea. A traditional park will be a nice complement to the other two parks. I don't know if my selections were recorded above. A continuation of the boardwalk is essential to making the connection between and among the parks. The design of the buildings around the park has narrowed the feeling of openness so it is beginning to look like a private park for the residential buildings surrounding it.

    AN ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION OF Michelle Lee Talal for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Environmental Science presented on May 7, 2019 Title: Exploring Urban Parks: Plant Communities, Visitor Experiences, and Manager Perspectives in Portland, Oregon Abstract approved: ______________________________________________________ Mary V. Santelmann Urban parks are biodiversity hotspots within cities and have the potential to provide a range of socio-cultural benefits for people, but may not always meet the needs and desires of park visitors. A variety of land use practices and environmental factors affect urban park biodiversity and vegetation structure, composition, and ecological function, but more studies are needed to compare plant taxonomic composition, biodiversity patterns, and species traits across different types of urban green spaces. Additionally, there is a lack of research that explores park user experiences, vegetation perceptions, and accessibility issues in a range of urban park types interspersed throughout Portland using qualitative methods to observe and interview visitors on-site. More research is also needed that focuses on interviewing park managers about their perspectives on park benefits and management. The findings of my interdisciplinary dissertation may assist managers in their aims to achieve various ecological goals, as well as meet the needs and desires of park visitors within increasingly developed urban areas. The purpose of this research is three-fold, and includes examining: 1) The relationships between plant community composition, biodiversity patterns, environmental variables, and species traits in a range of urban parks in Portland, Oregon; 2) how the vegetation in these urban parks currently meets the needs and desires of visitors; and 3) how park managers currently manage vegetation in the parks to meet the needs and desires of visitors.

  • PP Annual Report Exec Summary V4.Indd
    2015–16 Dear Portlanders: Thank you for your recent commitment to repairing and improving Portland’s parks. In November 2014, you and an impressive 74 percent of Portlanders voted “Yes” for the Parks Replacement Bond Projects26 underway — the highest percentage ever for a Parks ballot measure. You became part of a long tradition of Portlanders who’ve built and maintained our city’s enviable collection of park facilities. In this fi rst full year of the Bond, from July 2015 to July 2016, we’ve laid the foundation for the work to be done. In this upcoming year, you’ll start to see tangible results in the parks. Replacement of the 70 to 90 year old mechanical systems at Grant Pool was the fi rst completed project, and next year, results will be visible across the city. Project1 completed About every nine years over the last century, Portlanders have invested in increasing, preserving and maintaining our park system by voting “yes” on parks bonds or levies. Before the 2014 bond, the last major bond was in 1994, meaning 20 years passed without signifi cant park improvements or address- ing dire repair needs. Portland Parks & Recreation anticipates a $248 million funding gap for major maintenance needs over the next 10 years. The $68 million in funds from the 2014 Parks Replacement Bond will not address all of these maintenance issues, but it is vital to fi xing, upgrading and replacing the most crucial of these needs. Projects18 ahead of As your Parks Commissioner and Parks Director, we are making sure the funds will be used wisely and schedule maximize benefi ts to the greatest number of park users.
