Welcome: A. Brian Heron facilitated the meeting and welcomed attendees who introduced themselves. B. Members (those who are attending at least a second EPAP meeting) were encouraged to sign an EPAP Partnership Agreement and submit an Affiliations form. D. Brian shared a list of identified East Portland “Riches” that were documented (See notes on page 13). People added: 40% of Portland’s school-aged children; massive available road right-of-way; more off-street bike paths; and natural beauty of the Buttes. E. Arlene referred to timekeeping. II. Budget and Project Proposal Updates and Advocacy Report Back A. lore spoke about the $279,692 for EPAP proposed by the Mayor in the City of Portland Fiscal Year 2010-11 Budget. She said that while this was not the over $1million that the EPAP requested (including funding of EPAP priority projects), we never thought that the Mayor could print the $, but that he could influence the City Bureaus to integrate the projects into their operations. B. David said that indeed, while there is much to be done related to transportation needs in East Portland, the Portland Bureau of Transportation (PBOT) has committed to funding each of the related EPAP priority project requests in this fiscal year. That means we got the $279,692 + $305,000 (plus the leveraged $315,000 that PBOT committed to in matching $ for the projects). David said that this brings us up to what we got last year. C. lore said that her understanding, from the Mayor’s budget detail and his presentation at the East Portland Enhancement Project (EP2) Economic Development forum, is that: 2 of 32 1. $129,692 will pay for the Advocate position and related expenses, 2. Up to $100,000 in funding is earmarked for the Small/Medium Grants program; and 3. $50,000 is available to apply toward the priority projects. She then introduced Warren Jimenez, Deputy Chief of Staff with the Office of Mayor Adams, and asked him to speak about EPAP and the budget. D. Warren spoke of the following: 1. State of Oregon funding is cut and the ripple effect is about a 10% cut for the City. This makes all discussions more complex and harder 2. Appreciation of the contribution that Katie Larsell made with her involvement on the City-wide Budget Advisory Committee. 3. The City was prepared for the need for budget cuts, and did mid-term General Fund $ cuts – 2% for Community Safety operations and 4% for other Bureaus. 4. Preserving core values were the factors influencing the cuts. 5. EPAP provided good lists of asks and needs, but given the economy, they cannot all be met. The $279,692 is for EPAP infrastructure building and allocations targeted toward the grant program. The remaining $ can be allocated as EPAP prioritizes (this includes determining how much will be allocated to the EPAP Grants program). 6. Today City Council adopted the Mayor’s proposed budget. There are still next steps before it becomes official. Further along, there will be talks and opportunities to look into existing workplans and leveraging other sources for funding. E. Tom Barnes talked about graffiti removal and the work he and Donna are doing with some support from Marsh Dennis from the Office of Neighborhood Involvement Crime Prevention. They started in the Powellhurst-Gilbert Neighborhood and with the $2,000 EPAP grant have leveraged $15,000 worth of volunteer hours. He wants to continue and to grow this program, which is an EPAP priority project request to create a fixed position. F. Warren responded that the EPAP grants showed significant leveraging success. G. Larry Kotan asked why, if 2-4% was made in City budget cuts, EPAP took a 40% cut in $ commitment. H. Warren said that the 2-4% was across Bureaus, but per program, some of the cuts were very high level. He said that public safety was the top priority. I. Frieda Christopher said that Portland Public Schools (PPS) received $70,000 for re-usable lunch trays and $200,000 for improvements on an athletic facility at Roosevelt High School in North Portland. She noted that PPS has long been given support, while it is difficult to get School District assistance out here. 3 of 32 J. Warren said that this year Parkrose School District was given $100,000 for their soccer field. K. Frieda said that this is an equity issue. L. Time allotted for the conversation ran out, so Brian asked how many people wanted to speak and allotted 2 minutes each. M. Larry spoke of the EPAP Economic Development meeting he and Brian had with Commissioner Randy Leonard. Larry asked why EPAP did not get more $ and said that the EPAP allocation was band aid. Randy responded that everyone was cut and all that East Portland needs is a couple key projects within the Urban Renewal Areas to get things going out here. N. Marie Daniels, Faith, Randy, Susan and 4 youth from the EPAP Youth Subcommittee met with Todd and Reese from the Mayor’s Office. The youth advocated for safe places to meet – a Teen Center, youth economic development programs, and more after-school programs like 4-H and REAP. Marie explained that the EPAP youth related priority projects needing to be embraced by PDC and the Children’s Levy are a no-brainer. The Youth Subcommittee is scheduled to meet with Commissioner Dan Saltzman next Friday. O. David Hampsten spoke of his meeting with Representative Smith and PBOT staff members Mark Lear and Greg Raisman. He and the Representative advocated to get the East Portland Bike Master Plan completed ASAP and to include crossing improvements. They left with a commitment to build the Bike Blvd on 130th and Sacramento next year. David spoke about the items EPAP requested in the CIP. P. Mark White said that Commissioner Fritz was receptive to embedding projects in different Bureaus. She said that the Office of Neighborhood Involvement’s other districts had their small grant funds cut back this year. Mark stressed that the City dropped the ball related to the Federal Stimulus funds, which was a perfect opportunity to address issues in East Portland. He said that they need to make-up for this and the history of neglect. Amanda encouraged people to send communications via letter and email, so that the information can be more easily shared. Q. Katie Larsell explained that being on the City-wide Budget Committee puts you at the end of the process. EPAP needs to have representatives upfront on the Budget Advisory Committees of the Portland Housing Bureau and the Bureau of Environmental Services. She is welcome to talk with interested people. R. Warren said that he will be happy to help. He suggests that each representative have an alternate. S. David said that Linda Bauer is the Transportation Bureau alternate. T. Brian acknowledged that EPAP keeps showing-up. U. Warren said that he would stay connected, and as he left, he asked lore to contact him about next steps. He left his card for people wanting to contact 4 of 32 him: Warren Jimenez at 503.823.4046 or [email protected] .

  • Portland Pilot Program Evaluation 2 (1)
    Portland Ecodistrict Pilot Program Evaluation Report of Findings FEBRUARY 2015 © 2015 EcoDistricts. All Rights Reserved 1223 SW Washington St., Suite 200 Portland, OR 97205 TABLE OF CONTENTS Executive Summary 4 Background 7 Beyond the Portland Pilot 10 Pilot Evaluations 11 South of Market 12 South Waterfront 22 Foster-Green (Lents) 32 Gateway 44 Lloyd 52 Lessons Learned 60 Appendix 64 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Through the support of the Bullitt Foundation, EcoDistricts undertook an evaluation of the Portland Ecodistrict Pilot program, a three-year partnership between the City of Portland, Portland Development Commission (PDC) and Portland Sustainability Institute (PoSI) to accelerate sustainable neighborhood-scale projects in five districts throughout Portland between 2009 and 2012. 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.

  • East Portland Active Transportation Plan
    East Portland in Motion >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>A Five-Year Implementation Strategy for Active Transportation 6.5. Recommended Neighborhood Greenways This section describes recommended neighborhood greenways – low traffic, low speed streets where bicycling and walking are given priority, safety is improved at major road crossings, cut‐ through traffic is reduced, and environmental quality is enhanced through tree plantings and bioswales, all while maintaining vehicle access to private property. Neighborhood greenways have received strong support from the East Portland community, and will significantly increase the mileage of “low‐stress bikeways” in East Portland. East Portland in Motion recommends ten neighborhood greenway projects that total 29.5 miles, and that will bring more than 80% of East Portland’s population within a half mile of a low‐stress bikeway. 6.5.1. Neighborhood Greenway Funding and Phasing • Neighborhood greenways will be funded primarily through the city’s Affordable Transportation Fund, in addition to special grant funding on certain projects. • The two highest priority neighborhood greenways are the 130s Greenway and the 4M (Market/Mill/Millmain/Main) Greenway. Together, these two routes create a scaffold extending in all four directions from the geographic center of East Portland. • Gradual implementation. Some elements of the proposed neighborhood greenway network will be built over several years and through multiple funding sources. Work on the 130s Neighborhood Greenway, for example, will begin in year 1, but many of the more expensive elements will be funded through a Regional Flexible Funds grant in 2013‐14 (assuming the funding request is granted). PBOT must determine whether or not this earlier work can be considered as leverage for the grant.
