BACKGROUND
Representatives of the City Council, Lake Oswego School Board, City staff and LOSD staff have
been meeting as a task force to evaluate the potential of a partnership between the City and
LOSD to build and operate a combined Recreation and Aquatic Center. LOSD has contracted
with Opsis Architecture to guide the process, provide technical information and lead public
engagement regarding the potential partnership. Opsis was charged with building upon the
Superintendent’s Pool Task Force work completed earlier.

DISCUSSION
The parks bond explanatory statement included in the May 2019 Clackamas County Voters’
Pamphlet states:
“Specific uses of the bond proceeds will be guided by the City’s current and future parks and
capital improvement plans, with input from the public and from the Parks, Recreation and
Natural Resources Advisory Board.”
In alignment with the above statement, the Lake Oswego Parks and Recreation Department
engaged community outreach consultant Nancy Hamilton to provide a framework for public
feedback to the Parks Board on parks bond project priorities. Between June 12 and June 21,
2019, four community outreach opportunities took place:
• June 12: Lake Oswego Public Library Pop-Up Event (125 participants)
• June 15: Lake Oswego Farmers’ Market Pop-Up Event (424 participants)
• June 20: Parks Bond Investment Community Forum (51 participants)
• June 12-21: Online Community Survey (705 respondents)
At the pop-up events, residents selected their top five priorities from 13 choices by placing a
bean in each of the five cups corresponding to their preferred projects. During the community
forum, residents participated in an interactive exercise which required a cost-based
prioritization of parks projects that could not exceed the bond amount of $30 million. The
online community survey allowed residents unable to attend planned events to provide their
feedback by rating the 13 projects in order of preference from 1-13.
Members of the Parks Board attended each event to interact with residents and answer
questions related to proposed projects. The Parks Board received an Executive Summary
completed by Nancy Hamilton detailing the results of the public outreach process. Parks and
Recreation staff presented outreach findings to the Board for its deliberation of bond
investment priorities. The board held a special meeting to discuss Bond Project priorities on
February 4, 2020, and created the Prioritized Park Bond Project list (Attachment 1).
RECOMMENDATION
The attached prioritization is the Parks Board’s recommendation to City Council specifying the
ranking of possible parks projects. Additionally, staff seeks Council direction on which projects
to implement using bond funding.
