  • 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.

  • 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.

Through this letter, I hope to share a bit more background on Metro's Parks and Nature Program; provide general comments and concerns on the proposed Comprehensive Plan amendments; and propose plan language amendments for your consideration. Metro seeks edits that support Metro's role as a park service provider and to balance recreational needs and uses with natural resource protection and neighborhood concerns. I would also like to thank Planning Director Michael Cerbone and Multnomah County staff for their work on this complex project. The Comprehensive Plan Amendment Process: The County's Comprehensive Plan update process is largely a citizen-driven process, with the Citizen Advisory Committee (CAC) submitting its recommendations to the County Planning Commission for consideration and discussion. The Planning Commission was the first county government body to review the draft plan and thereafter provide policy guidance to the Board of County Commissioners. Before the Planning Commission, Metro presented comments and concerns, as well as proposed revisions to the County's draftcomprehensive plan language. The Planning Commission heard testimony that supported Metro's positions. The Planning Commission also heard testimony that sought to isolate the County's rural lands and residents.

  • 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.

  • Streetcar Plan Posters
    WELCOME Welcome! The purpose of this open house is to present draft recommendations from the Bicycle Master Plan and the Streetcar System Plan to the public. City sta! and citizen volunteers are here to present the material and to answer questions. The room is divided into three sections: one for the Bicycle Master Plan, one for the Streetcar System Plan, and one called “Integration Station,” where we tie the two concepts together. Refreshments and child care services are also available. The bicycle and streetcar networks will play a key role in Portland’s future. Together, they will reduce reliance on the automobile for daily tasks, they will reinforce urban land use patterns, and they will help the City achieve its goals to combat climate change. This is the beginning of a transportation transformation. WHY PLAN? PORTLAND HAS A HISTORY OF SUCCESSFUL LONG-RANGE PLANNING In 1904, landscape architect John C. Olmsted produced a report for the City Among the parks that resulted from the Olmsted Plan are Holladay Park, Irving Parks Board.
