Subject: Parks & Recreation Master Plan
Date: October 29, 2001
On November 5, a workshop is scheduled between the Parks and Recreation
Advisory Board and the City Council to discuss a number of items, including
the Parks & Recreation Master Plan. Attached is the most current draft of the
Parks & Recreation Master Plan. The draft contains a summary of the report,
followed by the consultant's detailed report and findings. As you know, Tom
Beckwith, the consultant hired to develop the Master Plan, will be present at
the meeting to discuss the plan and answer any questions that might arise.
The information contained in the plan was obtained by the consultant
through a series of meetings with the Parks & Recreation Advisory Board,
Natural Resources Advisory Board, Team Sports Advisory Board, local
organizations, and staff. Upon initial review of the plan, the Parks and
Recreation Advisory Board identified a number of areas needing clarification
and requested that the plan not be released to the public until these matters
were resolved. As a result, the draft has not been reviewed by those groups
who originally submitted information at the initial stage of plan
development.
Over the past three months PRAB has continued to review the documents
and forward their comments to Mr. Beckwith. However, during this process,
PRAB has not had an opportunity to discuss the plan with him directly.

PRAB continues to have a number of questions and issues they would like
clarified and are looking forward to the opportunity to discuss the plan in
person with Mr. Beckwith and the City Council on November 5.
Background
Preface
Quality of life is important to the citizens of Lake Oswego. Lake Oswego's parks, recrea-
tional and open space system is essential to maintaining the high quality of life that resi-
dents have come to expect. Over the years, public officials and citizens laid the groundwork
for the extensive park and recreation system enjoyed today.
The 1999 City of Lake Oswego Quality of Life Task Force Final Report quantified the ele-
ments found in the city that make Lake Oswego unique and desirable. In addition to its
"village" character, the report finds that the city's "parks, recreational facilities, recreational
programs and open space each help to improve the entire community's quality of life by pro-
viding all residents the opportunity to exercise, relax and enjoy nature." Indicators outlined
in this report that signify continued quality of life include ease of reserving fields, courts and
tee times, as well as a high number of residents served by various programs.
In 1990, the Comprehensive Parks and Recreation Master Plan was adopted to guide park
acquisition and development for the next ten years. The majority of the recommendations
were fulfilled, including the development of new community parks, pathways and athletic
fields, and in particular the purchase of land for future uses. However, the population of
Lake Oswego has continued to grow and, over time, the development of parks, recreation,
and open space facilities and services has not kept up with demand.
The choices that confront Lake Oswego at the present time are significant and could alter
the character and quality of this vibrant system if not properly planned. Therefore, it is es-
sential that a new Park and Recreation Master Plan be developed to provide options and a
clear direction for parks and recreational development for the next 10 to 15 years.
The process for developing the Park & Recreation Plan began in earnest in the spring of
2000, concurrent with the planning for the Lake Oswego Open Space Plan. While this docu-
ment looks primarily at inventory and forecasts demands for park and recreational facilities,
the Open Space Plan focuses open space planning and management. The scope and ap-
proach of this Park & Recreation Plan were presented for review at joint meetings with the
Parks and Recreation Advisory Board (PRAB), the Natural Resource Advisory Board
(NRAB) and the Team Sports Advisory Committee (TSAC). Several in -progress review
meetings were held with these groups.
Demographic Profile
Since the 1990 Parks Master Plan was completed, the city's population has increased more
than 11 %. Recent population projections by Portland State University estimate that an addi-
tional 4,962 persons will be living in Lake Oswego by the year 2015, bringing the population
up to 39,262. This is an increase of 14% from the 34,300 persons counted in 2000. As the
population expands the demand for park and recreation facilities is expected to grow, put-
ting pressure on existing facilities and programs.
Master Plan Goals and Objectives
The 1994 Lake Oswego Comprehensive Plan outlines the following goal for Parks and Rec-
reation: The City shall plan, acquire, develop and maintain a system of park, open space,
and recreation facilities, both active and passive, that is attractive, safe, functional, available
to all segments of the population and serves diverse current and long range community
needs.
The City's goals for this master plan are to:
• Establish policies to guide development and improvements for the next 15 years.
Provide proposals for upgrading the existing system and developing new facilities
and services to meet current and future needs.
• Develop a high quality diversified recreation system that provides for all age and in-
terest groups.
• Develop a high quality system of multi-purpose park trails and corridors that access
significant environmental features, public facilities and developed local neighbor-
hoods and business districts.
Forecasting Criteria
In generating recommendations for this Pian, national ratio standards and a Pacific North-
west participation model were applied to Lake Oswego's facility inventory to determine fu-
ture needs. The most widely used park land ratios have been formulated by the National
Recreation & Park Association (NRPA) using standards that have been developed over time
by major park and recreation departments across the country. The participation model used
was based on Pacific Northwest resident's recreational diaries that record their participation
in specific recreational activities over a measurable period of time. Facility requirements
were estimated for 21 park and recreation activities that were deemed to be of most interest
to the City.
Development Recommendations
Existing Public and Private Resources
As noted in Chapter 3, pages 9-18, the City of Lake Oswego, Lake Oswego School District,
State of Oregon and other public and private agencies have assembled 1,243.9 acres of
land devoted exclusively to park, recreation and open space uses within or adjacent to the
Lake Oswego urban growth boundary.
The City of Lake Oswego owns 530.7 acres of land available for public park, recreation and
open space use. This includes 21 developed, undeveloped and natural areas, 1 outdoor
swim park, , an indoor tennis center, 5 outdoor tennis courts, an Adult Community Center,
municipal golf course, and a water sports recreation center. Currently, there are 37.6 miles
of trails. However, with the expected population increase to 39,262 resident in 2015, addi-
tional parks, open space and recreation facilities will be needed.
The Lake Oswego School District owns 13 properties with 55.5 acres of land utilized for rec-
reational facilities within Lake Oswego urban growth boundaries. Recreational facilities in-
clude athletic fields, indoor gyms and classrooms, an outdoor swim park, 15 outdoor tennis
courts, and 1 indoor swimming pool.
Other public agencies own 4 properties with 671 acres of land utilized for public facilities
with recreational spaces and /or conserved for resource habitat and trail opportunities within
or adjacent to Lake Oswego city limits.

Clearly, this inventory of facilities shows that these public agencies have amassed an im-
pressive amount of acreage that includes every conceivable kind of parkland and recrea-
tional facility. The City of Lake Oswego, Lake Oswego School District, State of Oregon and
other public agencies presently provides almost every kind of park and open space land. A
significant portion of this inventory includes regional facilities serving populations that reside
outside Lake Oswego. The Lake Oswego School District controls a significant percentage of
the park and recreational inventory.
Land and Facility Demand
Chapter 5 focuses on demand forecasting for park and recreation land and facilities. The
following discussion summarizes this information and provides recommendations for facility
and renovation needs for parks, recreation facilities and trails required to meet the needs of
the City of Lake Oswego for the near future of 6 to 10 years and the long term of 15 years.
A more detailed list of proposals, including locations and costs for proposed renovations
and new development are described in detail in Chapter 9, page 189 on the "Proposed level
of service additions -by site" chart.
Specific Recommendations
Total Park Land
Generally: the city, school district, and state provide a significant amount of land for park
and recreation interests to satisfy most local and significant regional interests. However, the
present allocation is not balanced between different types of park and recreation land re-
quirements. Therefore, another 16.0 acres of land should be acquired to meet needs in the
near future.
Athletic fields
While the total supply of athletic field land is significant, the total acreage includes a signifi-
cant inventory of non -regulation fields that cannot support competition games or practices.
However, the City and other agencies have properties in their inventory that can be devel-
oped for additional fields. The current supply of land owned by the City, School District and
other public and private agencies is sufficient to meet the growing needs of local residents
to the year 2015.
Baseball and softball activities - particularly coed leagues - are growing. It is recommended
over the next 6 to 10 years that four existing fields are upgraded from practice or non -
regulation fields to competition fields. In addition to these fields, 4 additional new fields will
be needed in the next 15 years.
Interest in soccer is also growing. To meet this growing interest and anticipated population
increases, one existing soccer field should be improved over the next 6 to 10 years and 7
new fields should be added over the next 15 years.

Indoor Tennis Courts
A study conducted in 1999 by the Tennis Industry Association confirmed a 14% increase in
the number of people playing tennis nationally since 1995, or a total of 14.1 million people.
Of those, 68% play on public tennis courts.
In general, existing public and private indoor facilities meet tennis needs for residents and
school children during summer months. However, the present supply of indoor public courts
do no meet needs during rainy portions of the year, primarily late fall through spring. Addi-
tional indoor courts are needed to meet the current demand. Additional study will be re-
quired to determine the number and location of these courts.
Picnic tables and shelters
There are no existing national standards for picnic facilities. Yet regional models show that
Lake Oswego does not now provide a sufficient number of tables with which to meet the re-
quirements for residents and visitors during peak summer weekends and events. Nor are
the current tables and shelters equally distributed to provide access to all neighborhoods
and residential areas. Over the next 15 years, the City should add another 83 picnic tables
and 11 shelters at park and trail sites. No new properties would need to be acquired in order
to provide these new facilities.

Playgrounds
The regional participation model indicates that Lake Oswego is close to meeting standards
of needed playgrounds. Yet the present supply of 12 playgrounds is not evenly geographi-
cally distributed to provide equal access to all neighborhood areas. Ten additional play-
grounds are recommended for development within the next 6 to 10 years in the under-
served parts of the city. These new playgrounds can fit onto existing City -owned parklands.

Trails
Trails can be built along natural corridors, such as abandoned railroad lines, road right-of-
ways, or natural area greenways. They also can link together schools, libraries, commercial
areas and parks. The current supply of City and other agency acreage devoted to trails in
Lake Oswego falls short of the NRPA standard. In conjunction with the following recommen-
dations, the City should obtain the Portland Chip Plant property to allow for the extension of
the Willamette River Trail to connect to Roehr Park.
Park trails — Popularity of walking as an activity is ,growing — especially for older
adults in local park settings adjacent to residential neighborhoods. The present
supply of park trails is not sufficient to provide access to the numerous natural ar-
eas, waterfront sites, historical landmarks and other interesting features. Another
12.8 miles should be added to the inventory in the next 6 to 10 years to increase ac-
cess within city parks.
Walking/biking off-road trails — Also growing in popularity, particularly as a form of
commuting to jobs, schools and other facilities, as well as for recreational enjoy-
ment. Currently 25.3 miles of walking trail miles and 1 mile of biking trails. Future de-
mand shows that another 22.3 miles of hiking trail and 9 miles of biking trail should
be added to the inventory in the next 6 to 10 years.
Equestrian trails — There are currently no horseback riding trails within the City's
park system. The plan calls for 3.4 miles to be added over the next 15 years to in-
clude trails and linkages and access to rural area park sites.

Recreation Center/Swimming Pool
Recreation centers and pools are facilities providing swimming pools, physical conditioning,
gymnasiums, arts and crafts, classrooms, meeting rooms, kitchen facilities and other
spaces to support public recreation programs for all ages. The existing supply of these type
of facilities would likely meet the recreation center objectives, were it not that part of this
supply is provided by the Lake Oswego School District and is thus not available during
school hours, weekends, or during the holidays. The need for a recreation center is evident,
as outlined below. To accommodate such a facility, an additional 2 acres of land will be re-
quired.

Swimming Pool. The City of Lake Oswego does not currently provide indoor swim-
ming facilities. The Lake Oswego High School swimming pool Is available for some
public activities, in addition to school and athletic activities. Assuming this pool has
much needed renovations but remains the only principal facility available for public
use, the present supply may not be sufficient to meet needs of future population.
The high school pool should be renovated in the next 6 to 10 years and possibly expanded
to accommodate instruction and competition needs along with public access to Portland
Community College's pool. In addition, another indoor facility should be constructed in the
next 15 years to provide indoor, year-round swimming activities to the general public as well
as for school and swim team needs.
Indoor Recreation Centers. The City of Lake Oswego does not provide indoor gym-
nasiums, physical conditioning or racquetball/handball court facilities. There are fa-
cilities available in school facilities and private athletic clubs. The existing facilities
are not sufficient to provide public access to recreational facilities by current and pro-
jected future populations. A recommended 10,000 square feet of gymnasium and
4,000 square feet of physical conditioning space should be added in the next 6 to 10
years in a day -use facility. Since there is no existing site available for this new facil-
ity, 2 acres of land will need to be acquired.
Indoor Community Center. While there currently are arts and crafts, classroom facili-
ties, and meeting space available to residents of Lake Oswego, the majority of this
inventory is provided at schools that are not available for general public use during
daytime, weekend, and holiday use. An estimated 4,000 square feet of arts and
crafts, 200 square feet of small meeting space, 4,000 square feet of large assembly
space and 800 square feet of catering area should be added in the next 6 to 10
years for use by the general population. These proposed new facilities will provide
for future population increases and broaden the services available for community ac-
tivities.

Funding and Implementation
Funding
Additional investment in Lake Oswego's park and recreation system is needed to meet cur-
rent and future demand. Needed improvements and additional facilities are more specifically
outlined on the fifteen -year Proposed Level -of -Service (PLOS) funding plan found in Chap-
ter 9, page 189 and in the Appendix . These proposed improvements reflect the highest
needs of Lake Oswego residents identified in the land and facility demand analysis. The
PLOS does not prioritize improvements as determining community priorities were beyond
the scope of this project. Further assessment is needed to determine which investments the
community feels most necessary in order to meet the future parks and recreational needs of
Lake Oswego.
Anticipated funding costs are outlined for all improvements. The total estimated cost for pro-
viding proposed facility improvements to meet the needs of the community to the year 2015
is estimated at over $34 million.
Potential funding sources and strategies are identified in Chapter 9 for providing needed fa-
cilities. Sources include three methods the City has used in the past, including System De-
velopment Charges, General Obligation Bonds, and the Parks and Recreation Fund. Other
potential funding mechanisms include public/private partnerships, charitable donations, and
the establishment of a non-profit Parks Foundation.
Role Recommendation
Chapter 6 describes a variety of roles an agency might play in providing parks and recrea-
tion facilities and programs and recommends that the laity of Lake Oswego assume a strate-
gic role in providing facilities and programs in the futures. A strategic role includes providing
park and recreation facilities and programs that no other agency can or is willing to provide;
acting as a coordinator of local interests where facilities are provided by many other agen-
cies; and acting as a facilitator where unique acquisition or development opportunities may
occur that could be implemented or operated by other agencies.
Opportunities for Joint Use/Development
A strategic approach for expanding the current park and recreation system may include de-
veloping lands for parks and recreation use that are owned by other public agencies or and
private organizations. Federal, state, county, utility, school, private homeowner associations
and private commercial operators own a variety of strategically important sites throughout
Lake Oswego. Some opportunities for joint use/development are listed below. A more thor-
ough analysis of these possible cooperative options is found in Chapter 4.
Portland Community College. Some portion of Portland Community College prop-
erty, particularly the adjacent undeveloped lands, could be jointly developed to pro-
vide a campus/community park with picnic grounds, trails, fields, and/or courts.
Mary/hurst College. Some portion of the Marylhurst College property, particularly the
undeveloped lands adjacent to Highway 43 and along the rivertront, could be jointly
developed to provide a campus/community park including athletic; fields.
Lake Oswego Hunt Club. Trail systems could be jointly expanded between Iron
IkAountain and the Hunt Club to create multi-purpose trail opportunities for hikers,
mountain bikers and horseback riders.

Executive summa
Previous comprehensive plans
Lake Oswego has continued to change since the accomplishment of the last
comprehensive park and recreation plan in 1990. The choices that confront Lake
Oswego at the present time are significant and could alter the character and
quality of park, recreation, and open space facilities and services if not
adequately planned. This document outlines the choices that are available and
the means for implementing preferred actions of most benefit to Lake Oswego
residents.
This park and recreation planning process was conducted concurrently with the
planning process recently concluded in the adopted March 2001 Lake Oswego
Open Space Plan. The Open Space Plan developed thematic recommendations
for water access, heritage landscapes, scenic resources, natural resources,
green neighborhoods, and regional trail connections. In some instances this plan
repeats the proposals identified in the Open Space Plan in order to identify level -
of -service standards, specific project proposals, and potential financial
requirements. The Open Space Plan should be consulted, however, in order to
determine the overall theme within which these specific proposals are meant to
be realized.
2 Approach
This study analyzed the supply, demand, and need for public and private park
and recreation facilities and services within the Lake Oswego corporate limits
and urban growth boundary. The inventories include a comprehensive
assessment of all public and private facilities and services within the city and
urban growth boundaries.
The Lake Oswego Park & Recreation Advisory Board (PRAB), Team Sports
Advisory Committee (TSAC), Natural Resource Advisory Board (NRAB), and the
Lake Oswego Park & Recreation Department oversaw the completion of this
planning process. The proposals contained within this document represent the
consensus opinions developed during these events.
3 Inventory
• Lake Oswego, Lake Oswego School District, Oreqon State, and other public
agencies have amassed an impressive amount of acreage (1 177.3 acres) - that
includes every conceivable kind of park land and recreational facility within or
adjacent to the Lake Oswego urban growth boundary.
• Almost every kind of park, recreation, and open space land - is presently
provided by Lake Oswego, Lake Oswego School District, Oregon State, and
other public agencies within the region. The inventory includes wildlife
conservancies, waterfront beaches, picnic facilities, multipurpose trail corridors,
athletic fields and playgrounds, community centers, and related park supporting
administrative and maintenance facilities.
• A significant portion (76%) of the inventory are regional facilities - that are
used by populations who reside outside of Lake Oswego service area boundaries
even though the maintenance and operation of these sites has been financed by
the city. Out -of -area and state visitors and tourists use a significant portion of
these regional sites and facilities.
Lake Oswego School District has developed an extensive amount and
significant percentage of the inventory of park and recreational related facilities -
including outdoor playgrounds and athletic fields, and indoor arts and crafts,
meeting rooms, and gymnasiums. School facilities represent a significant portion
of the more competitive and higher quality, capacity sites - and much of the
smaller, more flexible facilities that are used on a local basis by neighborhood
residents.
4 Opportunities
A strategic approach may include lands that are owned for other purposes, but
that may be used for park and recreation activities under some conditions.
• Strategically important sites — are owned or controlled by federal, state, city,
school, private homeowner associations, and private commercial operators with
every kind of physical and socially valuable park, recreational, and open space
characteristic.
• A valuable park and recreation system includes lands and soils that may not
be suitable for urban uses — or even some kinds of developed recreational
facilities, but which can provide unique preserves, habitats, cultural, and
historical associations. These combined social and physical attributes provide a
balanced dimension to the park and recreation experience.
• A quality park and recreation system does not have to be implemented strictly
by public monies or purchase — but by the creative interplay of public and private
market resources using a variety of techniques including leases, easements, tax
incentives, design and development innovations, and enlightened private
property interests. Past park and recreation strategies may have relied too
heavily on purchase approaches and not enough on lower cost, but possibly
more cost-effective alternatives.
5 Future growth implications
Portland State University Population Research & Census Center expects the
population of Lake Oswego will increase from 34,300 persons in 2000 to an
estimated 39,262 persons by the year 2015 — or by 4,962 or 14% more persons.
This forecasted population increase will create significant requirements for all
types of park and recreation lands and facilities, especially within the developed
city which presently provides the park and recreation facilities that service most
of the urban growth boundary and surrounding area residents.

The approximate cost of sustaining the city's existing level -of -service (ELOS) -
meaning the current standard of park lands and facilities provided in relation to
the current population - would be equal to about $2,164 per every new person
added to the city's population or about $5,108 for every new housing unit.

Total cost $ 36,386.569
Under the composite proposed level -of -service (PLOS) — meaning the proposed
standard of park lands and facilities provided by all public and private agencies
combined in relation to the future population - the forecasted population increase
will create a city-wide proposal for an additional 16.0 acres of land and 59,483
facility units (square feet, courts, fields, etc.) by the year 2015 — were these
agencies to supplement the existing inventory as described within this plan.
The realization of the composite agencies proposed level -of -service (PLOS) for
the Lake Oswego urban growth boundary could require a total of $36,386,569 by
the year 2015 - not accounting for any maintenance, operation or repair costs.
Urban encroachments
If these proposals are riot realized soon, however, the present trend of urban
developments may:
• encroach upon - or preclude the preservation and public accessibility of the
more sensitive and appealing environmental sites, particularly within the
developing urban growth boundary, and
• develop - or otherwise preclude the purchase and development of close -in,
suitable lands for athletic fields, recreation centers, and other more land intensive
recreational facilities.
Forcing city and urban growth boundary residents to:
• use crowded - or unavailable picnic areas, and swim or fish at crowded
beaches,
• commute to play - at overcrowded existing facilities and/or reduce organized
athletic programs for local youth,
• commute to use - available facilities in other jurisdictions and/or curtail
programs to prevent severe overcrowding conditions in the facilities that do
provide such services.
Such actions would be to the detriment of local residents who have paid the
costs of developing and operating these facilities.
Financial implications
This level of facility investment can not be financed with the resources available
to Lake Oswego, Lake Oswego School District, and other jurisdictions if each
jurisdiction pursues an independent delivery approach or uses traditional
methods of funding. These agencies will not able to financially develop, manage,
and maintain a comprehensive, independent park and recreation system using
traditional financing methods in light of the needs projected.
These needs require a city-wide financing approach using a combination of
shared user fees, excise taxes, joint grant applications, impact fees, and voter
approved general obligation bonds if levels -of -service are to be maintained and
improved upon in the face of continued Lake Oswego urban growth boundary
population increases.
6 Role recommendation
This plan recommends Lake Oswego pursue a modified strategic approach to
services where Lake Oswego assumes responsibility for those functions no other
agency or organization can provide, and helps coordinate or support those
functions and activities that have other viable sponsors. Lake Oswego would be
the coordinator or planner of first resort, and the provider of last resort.

Chapter 1: Preface
Chapter 1: Preface
1.1 "Village in a Park"
Over the years, city residents have expressed a major interest in protecting and
expanding the physical and leisure opportunities available to the community. The
concept of a "Village in a Park" defines the inter -relatedness of park, recreation,
and open space opportunities with the residential characteristics of the city and
surrounding area most valued by residents.
The city accumulated a diverse and high quality system of park and recreation
facilities over the years as a result of the "Village in a Park" vision. The existing
park, recreation, and open space inventory provides a wide variety of activities
including resource and historical conservancies, waterfront access sites and
beaches, picnic facilities, trails of all kinds, playgrounds, recreational courts and
fields, indoor recreation and community centers, and museums, amphitheaters,
and environmental exhibits. These facilities were acquired and developed to
provide recreational activities of interest to the widest variety of ages and skill
levels — and to residents who progressively age into and out of different
recreational interests and pursuits.
However, Lake Oswego has continued to change since the accomplishment of
the last comprehensive park and recreation plan in 1990. The choices that
confront Lake Oswego at the present time and over the next 15 year period are
significant and could alter the character and quality of park, recreation, and open
space facilities and services if not adequately planned. This document outlines
the choices that are available and the means for implementing preferred actions
of most benefit to Lake Oswego residents within this 15 year planning period.
1.2 Parallel open space planning process
This planning process was conducted concurrently with the planning process
recently concluded in the adopted March 2001 Lake Oswego Open Space Plan.
The Open Space Plan developed thematic recommendations for water access,
heritage landscapes, scenic resources, natural resources, green neighborhoods,
and regional trail connections. In some instances this plan repeats the proposals
identified in the Open Space Plan in order to identify level -of -service standards,
specific project proposals, and potential financial requirements. The Open Space
Plan should be consulted, however, in order to determine the overall theme
within which these specific proposals are meant to be realized.
1.3 Park and recreation plan objectives
The specific objectives of this park and recreation planning effort were to:
• Define the setting — within which park and recreation facilities should be
provided within the Lake Oswego urban growth boundary including climatic,
historical, cultural, and current developmental conditions.
• Inventory — existing public and private park and recreational facilities that
have been developed to -date within the Lake Oswego urban growth boundary by
the city, county, and school districts.
• Forecast demand — for future park and recreation facilities and services that
may be provided by the city, county, school districts, or other agencies.
• Determine the costs -- involved in maintaining and/or improving park and
recreation levels -of -service (LOS) standards for different lands and facilities.
• Identify appropriate roles and responsibilities — that should be undertaken by
Lake Oswego to meet critical recreational facility and programming needs.
• Develop the elements of a comprehensive plan — for developing and/or
refurbishing needed park. recreation, trails, athletic fields and facilities, indoor
community and recreation centers, and other special purpose facilities.
• Define an implementation program_ — outlining the actions necessary to
realize the plan's development.
1.4 Approach
This study analyzed the supply, demand, and need for public and private park
and recreation facilities and services within the Lake Oswego corporate limits
and urban growth boundary. The inventories include a comprehensive
assessment of all public and private facilities and services within the city and
urban growth boundaries.
The proposed development strategies are the result of this comprehensive
analysis Generally, the proposed strategies recommend the city focus it's
resources where park and recreation needs are most critical, and the city most
effective
1.5 Public involvement
The Lake Oswego Park & Recreation Advisory Board (PRAB), Team Sports
Advisory Committee (TSAC). Natural Resource Advisory Board (NRAB), and the
Lake Oswego Park & Recreation Department oversaw the completion of this
planning process.
The proposals contained within this document represent the consensus opinions
developed during these events.
1.6 Documentation
This report is organized into 9 chapters dealing with major topic issues. A
separate technical appendix includes detailed population statistics, facility
inventories. development cost estimates, demand model variables, and public
survey results

Chapter 2: Community setting
Lake Oswego planning area boundaries — are generally described as the city's
limits and proscribed urban growth boundaries. The planning area boundary may
also be described as the 10.6 square mile area bounded on the:
• north - Tryon Creek State Park, Knaus Road and Stephenson Street, and
Portland Community College,
• west - Interstate 5,
• south - the Tualatin River, Childs, Stafford, and Bergis Roads, and
• east - the Willamette River.
Lake Oswego is located between the Tualatin and Willamette Rivers in
Clackamas County, Oregon 7 miles south of Portland. Except for open
agricultural lands to the southeast, the city is bound by Portland city limits on the
north, Tualatin and Tigard city limits on the west, West Linn city limits on the
south, and Milwaukie city limits across the Willamette River.
2.1 Climate
Oregon State's climate is strongly influenced by moisture -laden air masses
created in the Pacific Ocean. The air masses may move into the region any time
of the year, but particularly during fall, winter and spring seasons. The air flow
from the Pacific Ocean is interrupted first by the Coast Range Mountains and
then significantly by the Cascade Mountains. As a result of the Cascade
Mountain range, the west or windward sides of the state receive moderate to
heavy precipitation. The east or leeward side of the state in the "rain shadow" of
the Cascades receive light to moderate amount of precipitation.
The Cascades also affect temperature ranges in the state. The west or windward
side of the state is influenced by maritime air masses generally milder than those
that sweep down from the mountains in British Columbia on the east or leeward
side of the state. Consequently, eastern Oregon usually has colder winters and
hotter summers, while western Oregon is milder and more frost -free.
Lake Oswego is located in the wet westward side of the state in the Willamette
River Valley between the Coast Range Mountains and Cascade Mountains at an
elevation about 700-900 feet above sea level. Mean temperatures vary from a
high of 80+ degrees in July to a low of 40 degrees Fahrenheit in January with
extreme variations recorded at -3 to a high of 102 degrees Fahrenheit.
Average annual precipitation is about 37 inches with a mean growing season
with temperatures above 32 degrees Fahrenheit for about 170-190 days.
Approximately 80% of the precipitation occurs from October through March with
less than 6% falling during June, July, and August.
2.2 Earth
Lake Oswego is located within the eastern edge of the Pacific Mountain System
which includes the Coast Range Mountains and Cascade Mountain Ranges. The
Cascade Mountains were created by continuous volcanic activity along the
border of the underlying continental plates. The mountains were in turn, subject
to the action of periodic glacial intrusions - the most recent being the Pleistocene
glacial period more than 15,000 years ago. The Pleistocene glacial intrusion
gradually carved and flooded the Willamette River Valley, the lowland areas, and
other valleys between the Coast Range Mountains and Cascade Mountain
foothills. The glacial intrusion also created a series of glacier dams that
subsequently breached and flooded the eastern portions of the state creating the
Columbia River drainage channels.
Lake Oswego is composed of a series of uplands and bluffs bisected by the
Willamette and Tualatin Rivers, and focused on Oswego Lake. The hillsides are
channeled by a number of tributary drainage corridors created by Tryon Creek,
Springbrook Creek, Pecan Creek, and Oswego Creek, among others. Over time,
the tributary drainage streams created dramatic hillsides and overlooks,
particularly of Oswego Lake and the Willamette River.
Topography ranges from 100 feet in the lowest portion of the Willamette River
corridor to 718 feet on Cooks Butte and 761 feet in the Skylands Area in the
south portion of the city, to 970 feet on Mount Sylvania in the north. The plateaus
and foothills overlooking Lake Oswego and the Willamette River drop off abruptly
in slopes ranging from 40 to 75 percent.
2.3 Water
Lake Oswego is drained by two major rivers and a number of minor streams.
Willamette River — drains the entire valley located between the Coast Range
Mountains and Cascade Mountains merging with the Columbia River in Portland
to flow into the Pacific Ocean between the Washington and Oregon state
boundaries
Tualatin River - drains the eastern side of the Chalem and Tualatin Mountains
merging with the Willamette River in West Linn south of Lake Oswego.
• Tryon Creek - drains into the Willamette River on Lake Oswego's north
boundary.
• Oswego Creek — drains into the Willamette River from Oswego Lake along
the city's eastern boundary.
Oswego Canal — drains into Oswego Lake from the Tualatin River along the
city's southern boundary.
• 5gring rook Pecan, and a number of other creeks — drain into the 405 -acre
Oswego Lake. Generally, the streams are above ground through the developed
urban area though the shorelines have been improved in places. The streams
are not significant public water sources and are closed to all consumptive uses.
2.4 Historical development
Indian settlements
The arrival of Indian groups - in the Pacific Northwest cannot be dated with great
precision However, archaeological investigations on the Olympic Peninsula in
Washington State and along the Columbia River indicate man was in the area as
early as 12.000 years ago.
4
There are more than 5,000 Indian sites on record, few of which have been
professionally evaluated. Generally, sites are located at river conjunctions within
valleys and along the shoreline of the Columbia and Willamette Rivers. Known
sites have been grouped into three rather broad time periods:
• early sites - approximately 12,000-8,000 years old,
• middle -period sites - between 8,000-3,000 years old, and
• late period sites - about 3,000 years old.
A large number of different Indian tribes and bands inhabited the Pacific
Northwest region with varied life-styles and different languages, dress,
ceremonies, and adornments. Tribal characteristics are generally distinguished
between the coastal tribes of western Oregon and those of the interior Willamette
River Valley and east of the Cascade Mountains. In general, the coastal tribes
depended on the rivers and tidal waters for staple foods whereas the interior
tribes relied more heavily upon plants and berries, as well as game and other
animals.
The Clackamas and the Tualatin Tribes - used Oswego Lake as the dividing line
between their respective territories. Both tribes portaged in from the Tualatin and
Willamette Rivers to fish Oswego Lake (which they called Waluga — or wild swan)
and pick berries. A small Native American population occupied the lands around
the lake when the first explorers arrived. Most died of disease brought by the
early explorers and settlers. In 1855, the remaining tribal members ceded
territory to the Federal Government and moved to the Grand Ronde Reservation
in nearby Yamhill County.
Early settlers
Settlers arrived in the area beginning in the 1840s creating homesteads and
farms between the Willamette and Tualatin Rivers, and around Waluga Lake —
which they renamed Sucker Lake for the abundant fish found in the lake and
creek.
Albert Alonzo Durham - secured the first 640 acre Donation Land Claim and
founded the town of "Oswego" in 1847. Durham named the town after his
birthplace in New York. He built the town's first industry — a sawmill on Sucker
(Oswego) Creek. Early settlers built homes, shops, and other buildings in the Old
Town plat located on Furnace and Durham Streets north of Sucker (Oswego)
Creek.
River transportation — was crucial to the development of the markets between
Portland, Oregon City, Tualatin, and other nearby towns. Durham probably built
the river landing at the mouth of Oswego Creek in George Rogers Park, and
another may have operated from the mouth of Tryon Creek.
The Oregon Steam Navigation Company (OSN), the People's Transportation
Company (PTC), and the Willamette River Transportation Company provided
steamship service using sternwheelers on the Willamette River. The People's
Transportation Company provided service on the Tualatin River controlling
portage rights over Willamette Falls at Oregon City.
Iron ore - was discovered in the Tualatin Valley in 1841, but not seriously mined
until 1861. In 1865, the Oregon Iron Company was formed — the first of three
companies that would be created in the new town. Oregon Iron Company
extracted ore from Iron Mountain — the shafts of which are visible in Iron

Mountain Natural Area, and built the first iron smelter in 1867 on the banks of
Oswego Creek — the remnants of which are located in George Rogers Park.
Oregon Iron Company operated the smelter until 1881, when the plant was
acquired and operated by Oregon Iron & Steel Company until 1885. In 1888,
Oregon Iron & Steel Company built and operated a larger smelter on the current
Oswego Pointe site until 1890. The ore was shipped to the site by rail car. At its
peak, the iron industry employed over 300 men producing 12,305 tons of pig iron,
Oswego boomed, supporting four general stores, a bank, two barbershops, two
hotels, three churches, nine saloons, a drugstore, and even an opera house.
Eventually, demand for Oswego iron diminished as the quality declined and
shipping costs favored transport from San Francisco.
Willamette Shore Trolley — was built between Portland and Oswego in 1885-1887
by the Portland & Willamette Valley Railroad to replace riverboat and overland
wagon roads. The trolley line began operations as a regular gauge trolley line in
1888. The line was later purchased by the Southern Pacific Railroad, electrified
in 1914, and peaked in 1920 running 64 "Red Electrics" on a daily basis. The
trolley line stimulated development of the growing town and the market
relationships with downtown Portland.
Oswego Canal — early sawmills damned Oswego (Sucker) Creek, increasing the
size of Oswego Lake to include the deforested lowlands surrounding the original
lakebed. The Tualatin River Navigation and Manufacturing Company was formed
in 1869 to build a canal connecting Oswego Lake to the Tualatin River to
facilitate the transporting of logs, farm products, and other commodities to
Portland markets. The canal was completed in 1872, raising the lake and
increasing its length form 2.75 to 3.5 miles. Mule teams and laborers drug logs
through the canal to the river, then to the smelter and sawmills located on
Oswego Creek and Pointe.
Land development — with the decline of the iron industry, Oregon Iron & Steel
Company converted holdings into land development projects. The company built
a power plant on Oswego Creek in 1905, and began providing power to the
newly incorporated city in 1910. The company sold large tracts of the 24,000
acre holding to Paul Murphy, the Ladd Estate Company, and other land
developers to build summer and permanent homes for the populations
commuting by trolley line from Portland.
Murphy developed the Oswego Lake Country Club to promote the city as a place
to "live where you play". He also built the first water system to serve the west end
of the city and encouraged noted architects to design showcase homes in the city
during the 1930s and 1940s. Residential development accelerated around the
perimeter of Oswego Lake in the 1940s and 1950s. Lake Grove was annexed on
the west end of the city in 1960 and the city was renamed Lake Oswego.
Land use pattern — the city is developed primarily for residential use with
relatively little commercial or industrial activity. Commercial centers are located at
the older east end of the lake on A Avenue and State Street, and the west end of
the lake adjacent to Interstate 5 on Kruse Way and Boones Ferry Road
Industrial manufacturing, sawdust mill, and offices are located along the
Willamette River and the railroad tracks off Oswego Pointe Drive, and along
Interstate 5.

Oregon Iron Company operated the smelter until 1881, when the plant was
acquired and operated by Oregon Iron & Steel Company until 1885. In 1888,
Oregon Iron & Steel Company built and operated a larger smelter on the current
Oswego Pointe site until 1890. The ore was shipped to the site by rail car At its
peak, the iron industry employed over 300 men producing 12,305 tons of pig iron,
Oswego boomed, supporting four general stores, a bank, two barbershops, two
hotels, three churches, nine saloons, a drugstore, and even an opera house.
Eventually, demand for Oswego iron diminished as the quality declined and
shipping costs favored transport from San Francisco.
Willamette Shore Trolley — was built between Portland and Oswego in 1885-1887
by the Portland & Willamette Valley Railroad to replace riverboat and overland
wagon roads. The trolley line began operations as a regular gauge trolley line in
1888. The line was later purchased by the Southern Pacific Railroad, electrified
in 1914, and peaked in 1920 running 64 "Red Electrics" on a daily basis. The
trolley line stimulated development of the growing town and the market
relationships with downtown Portland.
Oswego Canal — early sawmills damned Oswego (Sucker) Creek, increasing the
size of Oswego Lake to include the deforested lowlands surrounding the original
lakebed. The Tualatin River Navigation and Manufacturing Company was formed
in 1869 to build a canal connecting Oswego Lake to the Tualatin River to
facilitate the transporting of logs, farm products, and other commodities to
Portland markets. The canal was completed in 1872, raising the lake and
increasing its length form 2.75 to 3.5 miles. Mule teams and laborers drug logs
through the canal to the river, then to the smelter and sawmills located on
Oswego Creek and Pointe.
Land development — with the decline of the iron industry, Oregon Iron & Steel
Company converted holdings into land development projects. The company built
a power plant on Oswego Creek in 1905, and began providing power to the
newly incorporated city in 1910. The company sold large tracts of the 24,000
acre holding to Paul Murphy, the Ladd Estate Company, and other land
developers to build summer and permanent homes for the populations
commuting by trolley line from Portland.
Murphy developed the Oswego Lake Country Club to promote the city as a place
to "live where you play". He also built the first water system to serve the west end
of the city and encouraged noted architects to design showcase homes in the city
during the 1930s and 1940s. Residential development accelerated around the
perimeter of Oswego Lake in the 1940s and 1950s. Lake Grove was annexed on
the west end of the city in 1960 and the city was renamed Lake Oswego.
Land use pattern -- the city is developed primarily for residential use with
relatively little commercial or industrial activity. Commercial centers are located at
the older east end of the lake on A Avenue and State Street, and the west end of
the lake adjacent to Interstate 5 on Kruse Way and Boones Ferry Road.
Industrial manufacturing, sawdust mill, and offices are located along the
Willamette River and the railroad tracks off Oswego Pointe Drive, and along
Interstate 5.

2.5 Population
Lake Oswego was incorporated in 1910. The city population increased on a
gradual basis up to 1950 reflecting the impact of the logging, iron ore industry,
trolley line, and then increase significantly from 1970 onwards as a result of the
development of summer and then permanent residences.
Population trends - the estimated 1999 population for Lake Oswego was 34,213
persons. The average annual rate of growth for Lake Oswego increased from a —
3.4% during the 1920s to 3.0% in the 1930. 6.7% in the 1940s, and 10.4% in the
1950s. The average annual rate of growth declined in the decades after from
5.1 % in the 1960s to 1.1 % in the 1990s as the city built out and aged.
Population protections - according to Portland State University Population
Research & Census Center, Lake Oswego will increase in population from
34,213 persons in 1999 to 39,262 persons by the year 2015 — or by another
5,049 persons or by 14.8% equal to an average annual growth rate of 0.7% over
this time period
The average annual growth rates will vary within the surrounding region but
gradually decline in rates with Washington County decreasing on the average
from 2.0% to 1.5%, Clackamas County decreasing from 1.8% to 1.7%, and
Multnomah County remaining constant at 0.5%.

Chapter 3: Existing facilities
Chapter 3: Existing facilities
Lake Oswego, Lake Oswego School District, Oregon State and other public and
private agencies have assembled 1,243.9 acres of land devoted exclusively to
park, recreation, and open space uses within or adjacent to the Lake Oswego
urban growth boundary.
These lands provide a variety of activities including wildlife conservancies,
waterfront beaches, picnic facilities, multipurpose trail corridors, athletic fields
and playgrounds, community centers, and related park supporting administrative
and maintenance facilities.

3.4 Inventory implications
• Lake Oswego. Lake Oswego School District, Oregon State, and other public
agencies have amassed an impressive amount of acreage - that includes every
conceivable kind of park land and recreational facility within the Lake Oswego
urban growth boundary.
• Almost every kind of park recreation, and open space land - is presently
provided by Lake Oswego, Lake Oswego School District, Oregon State, and
other public agencies within the region.
• A significant portion of the inventory are regional facilities - that are used by
populations who reside outside of Lake Oswego service areas boundaries even
though the maintenance and operation of these sites has been financed by the
city
• Lake Oswego School District has developed an extensive amount and
significant percentage of the inventory of park and recreational related facilities -
including outdoor playgrounds and athletic fields, and indoor arts and crafts,
meeting rooms, and gymnasiums. School facilities represent a significant portion
of the more competitive and higher quality, capacity sites - and much of the
smaller, more flexible facilities that are used on a local basis by neighborhood
residents

Chapter 4: Opportunities
A valuable park and recreation space system may include lands and soils that
may not be suitable for urban uses or even some kinds of developed recreational
facilities - but that can provide unique preserves, habitats, cultural, and historical
associations.
A strategic approach may also include lands that are owned for other purposes,
but that may be used for park and recreation activities under some conditions.
Federal, state, county, utility, school, private homeowner associations, and
private commercial operators, for example, own or control a variety of
strategically important sites with every kind of physical and socially valuable park
and recreation characteristic.
Consequently, environmental features and other strategic public and privately
owned properties were inventoried that could provide park and recreation
opportunities. Following is a summary of the findings.
4.1 Public ownership
Various public agencies own a considerable amount of land within or adjacent to
the Lake Oswego urban growth boundary. These lands are presently used
primarily for agency purposes. These lands may be available for multiple use,
however, if a park and recreation activity does not interfere with the agency's
primary use of the land - and if agreements can be negotiated with the property
owner concerning use, development, operation costs, and responsibilities.
Orecion State
Oregon State owns land adjacent to the Lake Oswego urban growth boundary
for community college purposes.

Some portion of Portland Community College property, particularly the adjacent
undeveloped lands, could be jointly developed to provide a campus/community
park with picnic grounds, trails, fields, courts, and other facilities of benefit.
Likewise, the multipurpose training facility at the National Guard Armory could be
jointly expanded to provide additional indoor activity space of use to the Guard
and public — acquired for recreational use in the event the Guard is relocated.
Portland
The City of Portland owns and currently leases land within the lake Oswego
urban growth boundary for waterfront industrial activities.

The property could be acquired or jointly developed to expand Roehr Park and
provide an extension of the Riverfront Trail, powerboat launch ramps, kayak and
canoe landings including overnight campsites, group picnic facilities and play
areas, and even a potential recreation center with swimming pool, courts, and
exercise facilities.
The site could also extend the trolley line to the waterfront and possibly even
house a museum displaying exhibits from the Oregon Electric Railway Historical
Society (OERHS) and Oswego Heritage Council about early river transport,
railway, iron ore, and other developments.
4.2 Private ownership
Various non-profit and private entities own a considerable amount of land within
the Lake Oswego urban growth boundary. Some portions of these lands may be
available for public use if a park and recreation activity does not interfere with the
landowner's primary use of the land and if the city can negotiate local
agreements with the property owners concerning use, development, and
operation costs and responsibilities.
Lakewood Center for the Arts
The Lakewood Center for the Arts owns and manages a strategically important
facility within the city.
Landholding t-eatures Acres
1 Lakewood Center Originally established as the Lakewood 8.0

The Center conducts an aggressive community performing and fine arts program
of activities, special events, and exhibits — operated in large part by an extensive
volunteer outreach.
The Center also hosts the annual Lake Oswego Festival of the Arts — an event
exhibiting more than 900 artists and a Craft Faire featuring more than 100
exhibitors. The 3 -day event regularly draws up to 20,000 people from the region
with activities staged in the Center and adjacent George Rogers Park.
Future events could be extended even further, possibly using Roehr Park,
Millennium Park, the refurbished streetscape areas along A Avenue, and even
the public spaces to be created in the downtown redevelopment project as host
sites for outdoor art exhibitions, musical and theatre performances.

the shared railroad track across the Willamette River to Elk Rock Island Park in
Milwaukie (the original terminus of the PWVRR) and through Lake Oswego to
Stella Olson Park in Sherwood with access to River Villa Park in Johnson City.
The trolley could also provide more pickup stations along the route at Iron
Mountain Park, Lake Grove Swim Park, and Tualatin Community Park to
increase recreational access to local residents.

24 Oswego Canal The Tualatin River Navigation and Na
Manufacturing Company was formed in
1869 to build a canal connecting Oswego
Lake to the Tualatin River to facilitate the
transporting of logs, farm products, and
other commodities to Portland markets. The
canal was completed in 1872, raising the
lake and increasing its length form 2.75 to
3.5 miles. Mule teams and laborers drug
logs through the canal to the river, then to
the smelter and sawmills located on Oswego
Creek and Pointe.
25 Oswego Dam Oswego Creek was damned in 1857 to Na
provide water power for Durham's sawmill,
and later to provide power for the Oregon
Iron & Steel Company smelters.
Total acres Na
Some manmade constructions are of the same value as natural creations. The
dam and canal system created of Oswego Lake is an artificial freshwater course
created to provide power and later transport between farms, logging camps, and
the Tualatin River. The waterways possess the same natural features as any
natural water body.
Other manmade constructions are very different in scope but utilize natural
resources or materials in such unique ways as to be interesting in their own right.
The Willamette Shore Trolley trestles and tunnel, and the remaining iron ore
mineshafts, water tower, and smelters are examples that should be preserved
and possibly provided wider public access.
4.4 Conclusions
• Strategically important sites — are owned or controlled by federal, state, city,
school, private homeowner associations, and private commercial operators with
every kind of physical and socially valuable park, recreational, and open space
characteristic.
A valuable park and recreation system includes lands and soils that may not
be suitable for urban uses — or even some kinds of developed recreational
facilities, but which can provide unique preserves, habitats, cultural, and
historical associations. These combined social and physical attributes provide a
balanced dimension to the park and recreation experience.
A quality park and recreation system does not have to be implemented
strictly by public monies or purchase — but by the creative interplay of public and
private market resources using a variety of techniques including leases,
easements, tax incentives, design and development innovations, and
enlightened private property interests. Past park and recreation strategies may
have relied too heavily on purchase approaches and not enough on lower cost,
but possibly more cost-effective alternatives.

Chapter 5: Land and facility demand
Chapter 5: Land and facility demand
Park and recreation land and facility demands can be estimated using population
ratios, participation models, level -of -service (LOS) measurements, and/or
questionnaire survey methodologies.
This chapter evaluates the demand for park and recreation lands and facilities
using national, state, and regional standards where appropriate for the next
15 -year forecast period. General priorities are indicated for each land and
facility requirement where near future means 6-10 years, and eventually
means 10-15 years. More exact project schedules are provided in chapter 9
on implementation.
5.1 Land requirements
Ratio standards — the demand for park and recreation lands can be estimated
using a ratio of a required acreage to a standard unit of population, like 3.1 acres
of athletic fields and playgrounds per 1,000 residents. The ratio method is
relatively simple to compute and can be compared with national or other local
park and recreation standards.
However, the method cannot account for unique age, social or interest
characteristics that may affect the park and recreation activity patterns within a
specific community. Nor can the method compensate for unique climatic or
environmental features that may cause seasonal or geographical variations in
park and recreation use patterns.
The ratio method is frequently used to estimate land requirements. However, a
number of factors may significantly influence the amount of land a community
may wish to set-aside for park and facility purposes. Such factors may include
the presence of unsuitable soils, scenic viewpoints, historical or cultural assets
that may increase set -asides, but not affect the ratio of required land to facility
requirements.
The most widely used park land ratios have been formulated by the National
Recreation & Park Association (NRPA) using standards that have been
developed over time by major park and recreation departments across the
country The ratios include the lands and facilities that are provided by all
public sponsors including city, school, county, state, federal agencies, and
private operators within or available to each measuring jurisdiction.
35
Total park lands
According to National Recreation & Park Association (NRPA) standards, a park
and recreation system should provide approximately 34.45 acres of all types of
park land per every 1,000 persons in the population.

Identifies additional land or facilities recommended to be added and the level-of-service per 1,000
persons that will result from the addition and the projected population increase over the next 15-
year planning period. The level-of-service ratio will decline due to additional population increase if
no additional land or facilities are recommended.
Ratio is expressed per 1, 000 residents within Lake Oswego (population of 34,300) under LO and
for all public and private facilities under All total and Recommended additional standard.
By corriparison, Lake Oswego owns 675.1 acres of park and open space land or
about 19.68 acres per every 1,000 residents of the city. All public and private
agencies including Lake Oswego School District, Oregon State Parks, Portland
Community College, the National Guard, and other public and private
organizations own 2,341.5 acres or about 68.27 acres per every 1,000 persons
within the urban growth boundary.
Generally, the city, school district, and state combined provide a significant
amount of land for park and recreation interests within the urban growth
boundary to satisfy most local and significant regional interests.
However, even though significant, the present allocation is not balanced between
different types of park and recreation land requirements. Another 16.0 acres for a
total equal to a ratio of 60.05 acres per 1,000 residents should be acquired to
meet needs in the near future. The resulting standard should be sufficient to
provide for local needs and to conserve important regional attributes within the
urbanizing areas.
Wildlife habitat/resource conservancies
Open space preservation or resource conservancies are designed to protect and
manage a natural and/or cultural feature, environment or facility - such as a
wetland or unique habitat, a natural landmark or a unique cultural setting. By
definition, resource conservancies are defined by areas of natural quality for
nature -oriented outdoor recreation, such as viewing and studying nature, wildlife
habitat, and conservation. Open space preservations or resource conservancies
should be located to encompass diverse or unique natural resources, such as
lakes, streams, marshes, flora, fauna, and topography. Recreational use may be
a secondary, non -intrusive part of the property - such as an interpretative trail,
viewpoint, exhibit signage, picnic area or other feature.
According to the NRPA, a suitable standard for resource conservancies is about
10.00 acres per every 1,000 residents. In practice, however, there are no
minimum or maximum standards concerning conservancies - a site should
provide whatever is necessary to protect the resource.

City park and open space lands combined presently provide 15.31 acres of open
space and resource conservancies per 1,000 Lake Oswego residents. All other
agencies combined provide 52.49 acres per 1,000 city residents.
These relatively high ratios include the extensive resource landholdings of Tryon
Creek State Natural Area, Portland Community College, Marylhurst College, and
numerous homeowner association commonly owned properties.
Consequently, the present set aside of conservation land may be sufficient to
provide for habitat, natural areas, and other open space objectives if linked into
effective natural systems.
Resource activities
Resource activities are defined by areas of natural or ornamental quality for
outdoor recreation, such as picnicking, boating, fishing, swimming, camping, and
local park trail uses. The site may also include play areas, such as playgrounds
and open grassy playfields as long as these areas support the primary outdoor
recreational features. The site should be contiguous to or encompassing natural
resources including resource conservancies and may be easily accessible to
several communities.
According to the NRPA, a suitable standard for resource conservancies is about
16.50 acres per every 1,000 residents. In practice, however, there are no
minimum or maximum standards concerning conservancies - a site should
provide whatever is necessary to protect the resource.

City lands presently provide 0.59 acres of resource activities per 1,000 Lake
Oswego residents. All other agencies combined provide 1.99 acres per 1,000 city
residents.
Consequently, the present supply (existing level -of -service (ELOS) standard)
should be increased by another 10.0 acres in the near future to possibly include
the acquisition and development of additional waterfront activities along the
Willamette River at the Portland Chip Plant next to Roehr Park.
Linear trails
Linear trails are built or natural corridors, such as abandoned railroad lines,
undeveloped road -rights-of-way, and active utility rights-of-way or natural areas
defined by drainage features, topographical changes, wooded areas or
vegetation patterns that can link schools, libraries or commercial areas with
parks. Generally, linear trails may be developed for multiple modes of
recreational travel such as hiking, biking or horseback riding. The trail system
39
may parallel established vehicular or other transportation systems, but apart from
and usually within a separate right-of-way. Linear trail corridors may also include
active play areas or trailhead development located in any of the other types of
park land described above.
Trail systems should be anchored by public facilities, like a school or park that
may serve as a destination or trailhead, and extend into the surrounding
residential areas using natural features or established roads, sidewalks or other
safe travel corridors. Ideally, a minimum trail system should be at least 3-5 miles
long and provide the ability to loop back to the point of origin. The trail should be
sufficiently wide enough to provide for the type of trail user(s) that it is
accommodating, preserve the features through which the trail is traveling, and
buffer adjacent land use activities.
According to the NRPA, a suitable standard for linear park trails is about 0.5
miles of hiking and jogging trail and 0.5 miles of separate biking trail per 1,000
population. This is the equivalent of 4.85 acres of linear park trail facility units per
1,000 population if the different types are provided within a combined multi -use
corridor — assuming the trail is used primarily by local residents.

The present supply should be increased by another 2.0 acres in the near future
to allow for the extension of the Willamette River Trail through the Portland Chip
Plant or as an addition to Roehr Park.
Athletic fields and playgrounds
Athletic fields and playgrounds are designed for intense recreational activities like
field and court games, playground apparatus areas, picnicking, wading pools,
and the like. A suitable athletic field and playground site should be capable of
sustaining intense recreational development. The site should be easily
accessible to the using population and ideally should be linked to the surrounding
area by walking and biking trails and paths. Typically, athletic fields and
playgrounds may be included within or jointly developed in association with an
elementary, middle or high school facility.
The desired service area for an athletic field or playground complex depends on
the competitive quality to which the facility is developed and the resident using
population that the site is intended to serve. Regionally oriented athletic sites
may include 4 or more competitive, high quality soccer, baseball or softball fields
serving organized leagues drawn from a number of surrounding communities or
areas - which may include the approximate service area for a high school.
Local (community or neighborhood) oriented athletic fields and playgrounds may
consist primarily of a playground and a grassy play area, possibly including 1 or
more practice or non -regulation athletic field. Local athletic fields and
40
playgrounds serve residents of an immediately surrounding residential area from
a quarter to half -mile radius - which is the approximate service area for an
elementary school.
According to the NRPA, a suitable standard for athletic fields and playgrounds is
3.10 acres per 1,000 population.

City land presently provides 1.29 acres per 1,000 Lake Oswego residents of
athletic fields and playgrounds. Other public and private agencies combined
provide 3.79 acres per every 1,000 residents.
While the total supply of athletic field and playground land is significant, the total
includes a significant inventory of non -regulation fields that can not support
competition games or practices. However, the city and other agencies own
significant lands in their inventory that can be developed for additional fields and
playgrounds.
Consequently, the present supply should be sufficient to meet the growing needs
of local urban area residents to the year 2015.
Recreation centers/pools
Recreation centers and pools are indoor and outdoor facilities providing
swimming pools, physical conditioning, gymnasiums, arts and crafts, classrooms,
meeting rooms, kitchen facilities, and other spaces to support public recreation
programs for school-age children (but not students), teens, senior, and other
resident populations on a full-time basis. For the purposes of this study,
recreation centers and pools are defined to include all city, county, and school -
owned facilities that are available for public use. By definition, recreation centers
do not include all other school buildings or private -for-profit enterprises.
The desired service area for a recreation center/pool depends on the extent of
the recreational program services to be offered in the facility and the building's
potential size and site relationships. Regionally oriented recreation centers may
include a variety of facility spaces including competitive swimming or diving
pools, gymnasiums or courts, classroom and meeting facilities, a teen, senior
center, and a daycare facility providing at least 7,500 square feet of indoor
building space. And/or a regionally oriented recreation center may be jointly sited
with an athletic park or playground, or in association with a library, civic center or
other public meeting facility. Regionally oriented recreation centers may be jointly
shared with school districts or a part of other city or county building complexes
that serve a city or larger surrounding community area.
Local recreation centers may consist primarily of a single facility use - like a
classroom or gymnasium complex that is less than 4,000 square feet in area and
that may be sited as a Ione building oriented to a single user group - like a teen
or senior center. Local recreation centers serve residents of an immediately
surrounding residential area from a quarter to half -mile radius - which is the
approximate service area for an elementary school.

the inventory to include indoor space provided by Lake Oswego School District
facilities. However, these facilities are not available for use during school hours to
meet the needs of seniors, parents, or preschool children. Consequently, another
2.0 acres should be acquired in the near future to include the possible acquisition
of a recreation center to service the adult daytime population, and adults and kids
during evening summer months and holidays.
Special use facilities
Special use facilities are single -purpose recreational activities like arboreta,
display gardens, nature centers, golf courses, marinas, zoos, conservatories,
arenas, outdoor theaters, and gun and archery ranges. Special use facilities may
include areas that preserve, maintain, and interpret buildings, sites, and other
objects of historical or cultural significance, like museums, historical landmarks,
and structures. Special use areas may also include public plazas or squares or
commons in or near commercial centers, public buildings or other urban
developed areas.
There are no standards concerning the development of special use facilities -
demand being defined by opportunity more than a ratio standard. Nor are there
minimum or maximum facility or site sizes - size being a function of the facility

This level -of -service is sufficient to provide equipment and facility space for the
maintenance and operation of the existing park and recreation inventory.
5.2 Facility requirements
Participation models - park and recreation facility requirements can be
determined using variations of participation models - which are refined, statistical
variations of a questionnaire or survey method of determining recreational
behavior. Participation models are usually compiled using activity diaries, where
a person or household records their participation in specific recreational activities
over a measurable period of time. The diary results are then compiled to create a
statistical profile that can be used to project the park and recreation behavior of
comparable persons, households or populations.
Participation models are most accurate when the participation measurements are
determined for a population and area that is local and similar enough to the
population that is to be projected by the model. The most accurate participation
models are usually controlled by climatic region and age, and are periodically
updated to measure changes in recreational behavior in specific activities or
areas over time.
Properly done, participation models can be very accurate predictors of an area's
facility requirements in terms that are specific and measurable. However, though
accurate, participation models can be somewhat abstract, and if not combined
with other methods of gathering public opinion, the method can fail to determine
the qualitative issues of an area's facility demands in addition to a facility's
quantitative requirements.
For example, an area might provide the exact facility quantities that are required
to meet the resident populations park and recreation demands, such as a mile of
walking trail. However, the facility might not be provided with the quality, program
service or other important, but less measurable aspect that make the facility
quantity effective and the activity a pleasurable experience. The walking trail, for
example, might be located in an area of uninteresting scenery and/or in an
inaccessible location.

This planning effort utilizes the results of recent recreation modeling by Oregon,
Washington, and Idaho for six age groups (male and female) for the western
regions of the states (west of the Cascade Mountains). Estimates were
developed for 21 park and recreation activities that were determined to be of
most interest to the residents of Lake Oswego.
The estimates were developed for each activity demand for the peak season
periods that would most impact facility capacities and thereby the level of service
to local residents. The estimated demands were calculated in facility unit terms
based on an assumed capacity and turnover rate common to the findings of the
diary surveys. The projected facility unit requirements were then converted into a
simple facility unit per 1,000 residents ratio to allow comparison with similar
standards developed by the NRPA and found to be the existing facility level -of -
service (ELOS) for each activity.
Ratio standards - a number of organizations maintain ratio standards
concerning park and recreation facilities - including the National Recreation &
Park Association (NRPA). National population ratio standards are not as
accurate as regionally based participation models since the national ratios do not
account for differences in region, climate, age or other characteristics that can be
controlled under the participation model. In addition, the participation model can
also account for a facility capacity standard that may be expressed through
management polices or local population preferences concerning volume of use
or the degree of crowding that is satisfactory.
Nonetheless, a comparison was accomplished of the results of the participation
model projections and common ratio standards maintained by various industry
sources. Generally, the results indicate that the Pacific Northwest's existing and
projected age characteristics will create a unique set of facility standards.
Picnic tables and shelters
The NRPA does not have a standard for picnic facilities. The participation model
indicates public agencies should be providing a ratio of 1.77 picnic tables of all
types (open and under shelters) per every 1,000 residents then gradually decline
to 1.67 as the population ages into 2010.

supply includes tables maintained at state parks used by out -of -area residents.
In general, Lake Oswego facilities do not provide a sufficient number of tables

preferred by bike touring enthusiasts.
Note - bicycle touring is a specialized form of bicycling activity and is not the
same as bicycling on a trail or bicycling on a road for commuter or other more
functional purposes. Bicycle touring is usually accomplished by an organized
group of cyclists on scenic roads or along scenic shoreline routes on designated

the routes favored by enthusiasts and school children are gradually being
improved and designated to correct inadequate pavements, shoulder widths, and
other safety standard concerns using roadway improvement funds and other
non -motorized trail development monies.
In addition, a significant volume of regional or tourist bicycle touring groups also
use local roadways due to the area's scenic beauty and relatively low traffic

is renovated but remains the only principal facility available foi public use, the
present supply may not be sufficient to meet needs of the fUture population.
The high school pool should be renovated in the near future and possibly
expanded to accommodate instruction and competition needs along with public
access to Portland Community College's pool. In addition, another indoor facility
should eventually be constructed to provide indoor, year-round swimming
activities to the general public as well as for school and swim team needs.

square feet of administrative space, 174.93 square feet of maintenance facility,
and 2.22 restroom fixtures per 1,000 city residents.
The demand for support facilities will increase as the park inventory is developed
and the population within the city increases. Consequently, another 1,200 square
feet of office space, 2,600 square feet of maintenance facility, and 64 restroom
fixtures should eventually be added to the inventory to support Luscher Farm and
the development of other city park opportunities.
5.3 Future growth implications
Portland State University Population Research & Census Center expects the
population of Lake Oswego will increase from 34,300 persons in 2000 to an
estimated 39,262 persons by the year 2015 — or by 4,962 or 14% more persons.
This forecasted population increase will create significant requirements for all
types of park and recreation lands and facilities, especially within the developed
city which presently provides the park and recreation facilities that service most
of the urban growth boundary and surrounding area residents.

Total cost $ 10,739,019
Under the existing level -of -service (ELOS) for city -owned park land and facilities
within existing city limits, the forecasted population increase will create a citywide
need for an additional 97.7 acres of land and 6,012 facility units (square feet,
courts, fields, etc.) by the year 2015. This assumes the city would continue to
maintain the same ratio of park lands and facilities for the future population that
the city has in the past
The continuation of the city's existing level -of -service (ELOS) for the existing city
limits could require a total of $10,739,019 by the year 2015 simply to remain
current with present standards - not accounting for any maintenance, operation
or repair costs.
The approximate cost of sustaining the city's existing level -of -service (ELOS)
standard would be equal to about $2,164 per every new person added to the
city's population or about $5,108 for every new housing unit.

Under the composite agencies proposed level -of -service (PLOS) for all public
and privately -owned park land and facilities within Lake Oswego, the forecasted
population increase will create a city-wide proposal for an additional 16.0 acres of
land and 59,483 facility units (square feet, courts, fields, etc.) by the year 2015 —
were these agencies to supplement the existing inventory as described within
this chapter rather than simply extending the same ratios into the future.
The realization of the composite agencies proposed level -of -service (PLOS) for
the Lake Oswego urban growth boundary could require a total of $36,386,569 by
the year 2015 - not accounting for any maintenance, operation or repair costs.
Based on the project roposals described in the plan chapters, Lake Oswego's
share of the cost would be approximately $34,215,997 or 94%.
59
Urban encroachments
However, if these proposals are not realized soon the present trend of urban
developments may:
• encroach upon - or preclude the preservation and public accessibility of the
more sensitive and appealing environmental sites, particularly within the
developing urban growth boundary, and
• develop - or otherwise preclude the purchase and development of close -in,
suitable lands for athletic fields, recreation centers, and other more land intensive
recreational facilities.
Forcing city and urban growth boundary residents to:
• use crowded - or unavailable picnic areas, and swim or fish at crowded
beaches,
commute to play - at overcrowded existing facilities and/or reduce organized
athletic programs for local youth,
• commute to use - available facilities in other jurisdictions and/or curtail
programs to prevent severe overcrowding conditions in the facilities that do
provide such services.
Such actions would be to the detriment of local residents who have paid the
costs of developing and operating these facilities.
Financial implications
These levels of facility investment can not be financed with the resources
available to Lake Oswego, Lake Oswego School District, and other jurisdictions if
each jurisdiction pursues an independent delivery approach or uses traditional
methods of funding. These agencies will not able to financially develop, manage,
and maintain a comprehensive, independent park and recreation system using
traditional financing methods in light of the needs projected.
These needs require a city-wide financing approach using a combination of
shared user fees, excise taxes, joint grant applications, impact fees, and voter
approved general obligation bonds if levels -of -service are to be maintained and
improved upon in the face of continued Lake Oswego urban growth boundary
population increases.

Chapter 6: Strategies
Followina is a brief accounting of strategies that can satisfy Lake Oswego's park
and recreation needs along with a discussion of the philosophical issues
involved
6.1 Alternative service roles
Lake Oswego could provide park and recreation facilities and services under one
of the following alternative service policies
Alternative 1: Comprehensive role
Lake Oswego could provide a public facility and program for every type of park
and recreation activity that could interest city and surrounding area residents. A
comprehensive service approach, however, would have a number of drawbacks
feasibility - there may not be a sufficient number of resident users within Lake
Oswego city limits to economically support the development and operation of
some specialized types of park and recreation facilities, such as major indoor
athletic and aquatic facilities, youth and teen centers, performing arts facilities,
and the Ike.
• duplication - other public and private agencies have already successfully
developed some appropriate, publicly accessible facilities, such as indoor
swimming pools, athletic field stadiums, major classroom and assembly facilities
- and special environmental features like marinas and commercial campgrounds.
Lake Oswego could spend considerable monies providing a facility that would
duplicate and dilute the need for an existing facility service.
• capacity - Lake Oswego may not have the financial resources to develop and
operate a comprehensive list of facilities and services even if city residents
elected to do so.
Alternative 2: Specialized role
Lake Oswego could pursue a limited, focused approach to park and recreation
services - like providing developments with specific types of facilities (picnicking,
playgrounds, and play areas) that may be used by residents on a neighborhood
basis as opposed to providing sites that may be used by residents of the
surrounding regional area. A narrow or specialized approach to park and
recreation service, however, would have the following drawbacks:
• balance - a quality park and recreation system should provide a choice of
activities allowing for weather, season, and individual preferences. A narrow,
focused inventory of facilities on a neighborhood or even site specific basis could
become sterile or uninteresting Residents would also be shortchanged if no
63
other agency assumed responsibility for providing for the other activity interests
that Lake Oswego decided not to support.
representation - as the most comprehensive level of government, local
residents depend on Lake Oswego to represent their interests with other
governmental agencies. Lake Oswego has a responsibility to see that other
agencies successfully provide facilities within the local area in the event Lake
Oswego does not, and to offset the impact of regional park and recreation activity
demands on local facilities.
• opportunity - Lake Oswego may be aware or in a position to capitalize upon a
land or facility opportunity when another agency may not be able to respond in
time or alone. Examples include the use of utility corridors for trails, the
acquisition of surplus or defunct facilities, and sometimes by project specific
mitigation through the subdivision and/or environmental impact review process.
Alternative 3: Strategic role - recommended action
Lake Oswego could perform a strategic role providing:
• park and recreation facilities and programs that no other agency can or is
willing to provide,
• acting as a coordinator of local interests where facilities are provided by many
other agencies; and
• acting as a facilitator where unique acquisition or development opportunities
may occur that could be implemented or operated by other agencies.
A strategic approach to services will require the following:
involvement - Lake Oswego must coordinate planning and development
efforts with other agencies such as the school district, county, state, federal, and
other public and private agencies to be aware of and have impact on these and
other agency local programs and efforts,
planning - Lake Oswego must continually analyze long range needs and
conditions for residents within city limits and the urban growth boundary in order
to recognize and be prepared to act on opportunities,
priorities - Lake Oswego must decide policies and outline actions to be
undertaken should opportunities allow strategic developments,
• commitment - Lake Oswego must provide appropriate staff expertise and
budgets with which to implement strategic planning programs and projects when
no other agency can or is able within a strategic time schedule.
6.2 Role recommendations by function
This plan recommends Lake Oswego pursue a modified strategic approach to
services where Lake Oswego assumes responsibility for those functions no other
agency or organization can provide, and helps coordinate or support those
functions and activities that have other viable sponsors. Lake Oswego would be
the coordinator or planner of first resort, and the provider of last resort. For
example:

Coordinating activities
Lake Oswego should provide central information and coordination services for
park and recreation activities within the Lake Oswego urban growth boundary
since Lake Oswego alone has the local authority and resources to operate as a
central facilitator. This role should include the maintenance and updating of
future population growth estimates, inventories of existing and proposed facility
developments, the identification of probable local facility and program needs, and
proposals of areawide facility and program solutions.
Planning and development assistance
Lake Oswego should provide more detailed planning and development
assistance when:
• there are no other designated agencies or organization that can,
• the activity involves siting controversies or environmental consequences that
may not be equitably resolved otherwise within the Lake Oswego urban growth
boundary, or
• a proposed development will be within the Lake Oswego urban growth
boundary and thus potentially annexed into corporate limits subject to Lake
Oswego authority.
Development, operation and maintenance
Lake Oswego should not develop, operate or maintain park or recreation facilities
and activities unless:
• the facility will have the broadest possible benefits for a large proportion of
the local population and will be financed using resident approved methods, or
• facility development and operating costs will be recaptured from direct
charges of the populations who use the facility, or
• facility development and operating costs will be compensated in some
manner through local agreements with the using agency, area or benefiting user
group, particularly where the demands will originate from a regional service
requirement, or
• the site or facility has intrinsic value apart from traditional operation and
maintenance needs, like a passive natural area or wetland preservation.
6.3 Role responsibility by activity
By activity, this plan recommends Lake Oswego assume the following
responsibilities:
Environmental conservation
Lake Oswego should assume a major responsibility for the planning,
coordination, and preservation of unique wildlife habitat, ecological, wetland,
environmental, and open space areas.
Lake Oswego should work with all other public and private agencies, particularly
Oregon State Parks, Fish & Wildlife, Natural Resources, and Transportation
Department to create an effective approach to these local conservation issues
and proposals.
Outdoor facilities
Lake Oswego should assume a mayor responsibility for the planning,
development, and operation of a variety of outdoor facilities including
playgrounds, tennis courts, picnicking areas, swimming and fishing beaches,
park and bicycle trails that are directly related to site opportunities within the
urban growth boundary and are of most interest to local residents.
66
Lake Oswego should help coordinate and assist other public and private
agencies, such as the Lake Oswego School District, to develop major
competitive outdoor athletic facilities including football, soccer, baseball, and
softball, as well as pick-up play facilities for outdoor basketball and volleyball
courts since these facilities are and will be provided by this agency.
Special facilities
Lake Oswego may assume some responsibility, including enterprise operations
and/or joint efforts where appropriate, for the development and operation of
facilities that have special or unique interests, impacts or relevance to residents
of Lake Oswego that may not be provided by another public or private agency.
Indoor facilities
Lake Oswego should help coordinate and assist other public and private
agencies, such as the Lake Oswego School District, Lakewood Arts Center, and
others to plan, develop, and operate specialized indoor facilities including
exercise and conditioning, gymnasiums, courts, arts and crafts, classrooms,
small meeting rooms for special populations, youths and teens, seniors, and the
general population since these facilities directly serve the local area and are of
major interest to city residents of all ages.
Lake Oswego should help coordinate and assist other public and private
agencies, especially the Lake Oswego School District, to develop specialized
indoor athletic facilities including swimming pools and aquatic facilities,
gymnasiums, auditoriums, kitchens, and large meeting facilities that service
particular age groups within the community.
Recreation programs
Lake Oswego should assist with, and possibly coordinate the operation of
programs for athletic leagues and sports, teen and senior age groups, and
special populations since these facilities directly serve the local area and are of
mayor interest to city residents of all ages.
Lake Oswego should help coordinate and assist other public and private
agencies, potentially the YMCA, to initiate specialized programs for daycare and
school child latch key services using city and school facilities where appropriate.

Chapter T Goals and objectives
The following goals and objectives are based on an analysis of park, recreation,
open space conditions, and the results of workshop planning sessions.
7.1 Wildlife resources
Incorporate unique ecological features and resources into the park system to
protect threatened species, preserve habitat, and retain migration corridors that
are unique and important to local wildlife.
Wildlife habitat
a: Identify and conserve critical wildlife habitat including nesting sites, foraging
areas, and migration corridors within or adjacent to natural areas, open spaces,
and the developed urban areas — such as Oswego Canal and Tryon Creek.
b: Preserve especially sensitive habitat sites that support threatened species and
urban wildlife habitat - such as the riparian corridors adjacent to the Tualatin and
Willamette Rivers.
Natural areas
a: Preserve and protect significant environmental features including unique
wetlands, open spaces, woodlands, shorelines, waterfronts and other
characteristics that support wildlife and reflect Lake Oswego's resource heritage
— such as the Oswego Canal.
b: Provide public access to environmentally sensitive areas and sites that are
especially unique to the Lake Oswego area - such as Cook's Butte Park, Iron
Mountain, and the Luscher Farm properties.
7.2 Open spaces and preserves
Develop a high quality, diversified park system that preserves and enhances
significant environmental resources and features.
Open spaces
a: Define and conserve a system of open space corridors or separators to

Chapter 8: Plan elements
The following proposals concerning elements of the park and recreation plan are
based on the results of field analysis, environmental inventories, demand
analysis, and workshop planning sessions. Open space proposals are
summarized in the March 2001 Lake Oswego Open Space Plan.
The proposals are organized by major plan elements to be provided by a site or
property. Any particular park may include one or all of the following plan element
features. The descriptions provided in this section describe the improvements
that will be accomplished under each major type of plan element - see each plan
element for a composite description for any particular site.
The proposals are conceptual, describing the possibilities envisioned in
this long-range plan. In some instances, the proposals will be subject to
further feasibility and siting studies.
See also the chapters on existing land and facilities or opportunities for a
description of each site's current conditions, ownership, and other particulars.
8.1 Conservancies —environmental
Resource conservancy lands may be protected that retain wildlife habitat for
threatened and endangered species throughout Lake Oswego. Generally,
conservancy lands may conserve, restore, and provide access to wetlands,
woodlands. foraging and nesting areas, migration corridors, and other unique
ecological areas.
Lands may also be acquired that conserve viable wildlife habitat or migration
corridors between and within developed areas including occasional wetlands,
bogs, woods, ravines, and other features.
To the extent possible and practical, conservancy lands may link preserved open
spaces (even though these lands may not be publicly accessible) to create
wildlife migration corridors and open space networks that visually define and
separate developed areas from each other in accordance with the objectives of
the Oregon State Land Use Planning Act.
To the extent practical, some conservancy lands may provide nature and
interpretive trails, exhibits, and interpretive facilities to increase public awareness
and appreciation for significant and visually interesting wildlife features. Some
supporting services may also be developed including limited wildlife viewing
blinds, trailheads, parking lots, and restrooms.
77
Conservancy activities may be located on independent properties or include
portions of other sites provided for resource activities, trail corridors, or other
public facilities. Conservancies may also be developed on other publicly owned
lands subject to public use agreements or easements, or on lands acquired for
other public purposes including stormwater management, groundwater recharge,
and wastewater treatment.
Vision
As described herein, wildlife habitat/resource conservancies may be realized
through:
• acquisition of title and/or development rights of habitat lands - that would
otherwise be developed for other land uses;
• provision for public access and interpretive use- which would not be possible
if the lands remained in private ownership-, and
• conservation for wildlife migration corridors - through developing urban areas
and neighborhoods.
Existing and proposed conservancy sites
See the March 2001 Lake Oswego Open Space Plan for a description of existing
public, nonprofit, homeowner association, private, and other conservancy and
open space properties, and proposals for additional conservancies.
78
8.2 Conservancies - historical
Resource properties may be protected that retain and preserve significant
historical and cultural sites and facilities throughout Lake Oswego. Generally,
historical conservancy properties may be acquired that conserve and provide
interpretive access to significant sites including original homesteads or prominent
building sites, commercial or public buildings of unique architectural
characteristics, locations of important industrial or resource oriented activities,
and other culturally important areas. Lands may also be acquired that conserve
significant man-made constructions on the land including bridges, dikes, dams,
and other features.
To the extent possible and practical, historical sites and buildings will be linked
with other park lands to create activity centers or facilities that reflect the original
cultural use. in some instances, the buildings or sites may be adapted to provide
supporting services such as trailheads, parking lots, restrooms, and utilities.
To the extent possible and practical, historical buildings and structures will be
conserved on their original sites. In some instances, however, the buildings or
other improvements may be relocated to other public properties in order to better
conserve, display, or provide interpretive access.
To the extent practical and protecting of archaeological significance, historical or
archaeological sites may be marked or signed as part of the conservancy park
element. Interpretive signs may be located off-site or in areas that do not risk
exposure or possible vandalism of underlying archaeological resources or
properties (including private lands).
Vision
As described herein, historical conservancies may be realized through:
• acquisition of title and/or development rights of properties that would
otherwise be destroyed or developed for other land uses;
• provision for public access and interpretive use which would not be possible
if the properties remained in private ownership; and
• provision for signing and interpretation subject to appropriate security
measures and underlying property owner agreements.

8.3 Resource parks
Resource lands may be conserved in Lake Oswego that provide public access to
significant environmental features. Generally, environmental resource activity
parks may provide access to significant streams, wetlands, woodlands, other
unique ecological and wildlife habitats, and scenic areas.
To the extent possible and practical, resource lands will be linked with other
preserved open spaces (even though these lands may not be publicly
accessible) to create open space networks that visually define and separate
developed urban areas from each other and the surrounding rural landscapes in
accordance with the objectives of the Oregon State Land Use Law. Greenway
corridors will also be located to provide migration routes for wildlife between
urban areas and significant habitats.
To the extent practical, resource lands may also be traversed and linked by all
types of trail corridors to increase access to and through significant and visually
interesting features.
Resource -oriented facilities may be developed that provide public use and
enjoyment of appropriate and capable portions of environmental resource sites
throughout Lake Oswego. Water -oriented resource activity improvements may
provide a distribution of swimming and sunbathing sites, fishing piers, docks, and
boat launches.
Where appropriate, resource -oriented sites may also be improved with a variety
of outdoor facilities including group and individual campsites, picnic facilities,
playgrounds, and open grassy play areas. Supporting services may also be
developed including parking lots, restrooms, and utilities.
Resource activities may be located on independent properties or include portions
of other sites provided for resource conservancies, trail corridors, athletic
facilities or other public facilities. Resource activities may also be developed on
other publicly -owned lands subject to public use agreements or easements; or
on lands acquired for other public purposes including stormwater management
detention and retention ponds, and wastewater treatment sites.
Vision
As described herein, the resource activities vision will be realized through:
• acquisition of resource lands - that would otherwise be developed for other
land uses;
• provision of public access - and use of natural features which would not be
possible if the lands remained in private ownership; and
• conservation for public access - and use of unique and available natural
features that visually define and separate developed areas and
neighborhoods.

8.4 Water trails
A water access system may be developed for dory, sportyak, canoes, kayaks,
and other car -top boating activities. The water trails may provide access to
freshwater bodies that are not readily accessible or suitable for powerboats or
other larger watercraft.
Where possible, water trailheads may be located to coincide with and use other
trail corridors, resource conservancies, and other park and recreational facility
services including parking lots, restrooms, and utilities. When provided on
separate sites, water trailheads may be improved with launch ramps or landings,
picnic tables, parking lots, restrooms, and other services.
Some of the water trails proposed in this plan along the Willamette and Tualatin
Rivers have been identified by paddle boat enthusiasts working in conjunction
with state, federal, and other boating interest groups.
Vision
As described, the water trail vision may:
• increase and promote public access to the area's significant fresh water
resources - particularly for car -top boating enthusiasts,
• to scenic natural areas and features of interest that can not be accessed
from other trail systems,
• for boating enthusiasts of all skill levels, and
• for extended boating duration including the possibility of overnight trips.
Water trails

The following or comparable water trails have been developed as part of a
regional system with supporting trailheads and services acquired and managed
by the state. counties. cities or other aaencv in cooperative ventures:

8.5 Horse trails
A system of horse trails may be developed to link major environmental assets,
park, and recreational facilities in Lake Oswego. To the extent practical and
possible, horse trails may be linked or extended into local neighborhoods that
have significant horse populations to provide convenient and safe access for
riders of all age and skill levels.
Within the developed areas, horse trails may parallel or coincide with other
multipurpose trail corridors or within separate routes using roadways and other
alignments of interest to the horse riding population.
Horse trails may be constructed of a sand or compacted dirt base at least 2 feet
in width with an additional 2 feet of under -story clearance on either side of the
trail. When provided within a multipurpose trail corridor, the horse trail may be
separated as much as possible from other hiking and biking activities. Riders
may be required to dismount at all bridges and other crossings where the horse
trail coincides with other trail activities.
Horse trails may generally share trailhead services with other trail users when
the horse trail is located within a multipurpose trail corridor. When horse trails are
provided in separate locations, trailheads may be provided with parking lots,
hitching racks, restrooms, and other services.
Some of the horse trails proposed within this plan have already been developed
on an informal basis by horse riding organizations working in conjunction with
public and private landowners. Future public horse trail development projects
may use the same cooperative, joint venture approach to formally designate and
improve existing trails and trailheads.
Vision
As described, the horse trails vision may:
• provide or formally designate equestrian access to scenic areas and other
features of interest,
• for riders of all capability levels,
• for extended ride duration, and
• within close proximity to horse riding populations.

8.6 Walking and hiking trails
Walking and hiking trails may be developed to link major environmental assets,
park and recreational facilities, community centers, and historical features
throughout Lake Oswego. Generally, walking and hiking trails may be developed
as dirt or bark surfaced routes on interior alignments through environmental
features. Portions of the system within the more densely developed areas,
however, may be developed as sidewalks or boardwalks with urban streetscape
furnishings and amenities.
Where possible, walking and hiking trails may be developed in alignments
separate from vehicular or other motorized forms of transportation. For example,
walking and hiking trails may be located within natural drainage corridors,
wooded ravines, and utility easements. In some instances and for short duration,
walking and hiking trail systems may developed as improvements within the
right-of-way of established vehicular or other transportation corridors.
Generally, walking and hiking trails may be developed to class 2-5 walking trail
standards providing 2 -way travel on a crushed rock, bark or compacted dirt base
varying between 2 and 5 feet in width. The trails may be of a slope not more than
1:12 unless provided with stairs or other erosion controls. Class 2-3 trail
segments may be handicap accessible and usable by all age and skill groups.
Within the most urban alignments, walking and hiking trails may be developed to
class 1 walking trail standards providing 2 -way travel on an asphalt or concrete
surface between 4 and 6 feet in width. Such sidewalk or boardwalk trails may be
of a slope not more than 1:50. Class 1 trail segments may be handicap
accessible and usable by all age and skill groups.
Walking and hiking trail corridors may be located to coincide with other park and
recreational improvements or public facilities to access rest stops, parking lots,
restrooms, and other services.
Walking and hiking trail corridors may be independent properties or include
portions of other sites provided for resource activities, athletic facilities, and other
park and recreational or public facility properties. Linked with conservation areas
and resource activities, the walking and hiking trails may create a system of
interconnected greenways to integrate and define the urban and natural portions
of the county in accordance with the Oregon State Land Use Law's provisions for
urban separators.
Vision
As described, the walking and hiking trails vision may be realized by providing
recreational trail opportunities that:
• access natural features that may not be available otherwise,
• link open spaces and other conservation areas into a greenway system,
• serve persons with varied physical abilities and skills,
• establish high visibility and volume pedestrian routes through the most
developed urban areas,
• expand the park system to connect with public properties, and
• expand roadway corridors to provide recreational and commuter trail
opportunities

8.7 Off-road mountain biking trails
A system of off-road mountain bike trails may be developed to link major
environmental assets, park, and recreational facilities throughout Lake Oswego.
To the extent practical and possible, off-road mountain bike trails may be linked
or extended into local urban neighborhoods to provide convenient, safe access
for younger age riders. Mountain bike trail facilities may also be developed to
provide contained trails within major parks and/or on public or utility rights-fo-way
that are safe and practical for younger, less experienced riders.
To the extent possible or practical, mountain bike trails may be developed as
single mode trails to USDA Forest Service mountain bike trail standards. Shared
trail corridors, however, may be simply designated for joint equestrian, hiking,
and mountain bike trail use.
Within developed areas, mountain bike trails may parallel or coincide with other
multipurpose trail corridors or within separate routes using powerline, pipeline,
and other alignments of interest to the mountain bike riding population. In some
instances, mountain bike trails may be developed as improvements within the
right-of-way of established vehicular or other transportation corridors -
particularly where these segments may provide trail access to parks or riding
areas that would not be accessible otherwise.
Mountain bike trails may be constructed of a compacted dirt or crushed rock
base at least 1-2 feet in width with an additional 3-4 feet of under -story clearance
on either side of the trail. When provided within a multipurpose trail corridor, the
mountain bike trail may be an integral part of other hiking and biking activities.
Mountain bike trails may generally share trailhead services with other trail users
when the mountain bike trail is located within a multipurpose trail corridor. When
mountain bike trails are provided in separate locations, trailheads may be
provided with parking lots, restrooms, and other services.
Some of the mountain bike trails proposed within this plan have been identified
by mountain biking enthusiasts working in conjunction with cycling interest
groups. Future public mountain biking trail projects may use the same
cooperative, joint venture approach to formally designate and improve existing
trails and trailheads and/or develop new off-road trails, rest stops, and other trail
services.
Vision
As described, the mountain bike trails vision may:
• increase off-road mountain bike trail access for experienced riders to scenic
areas and features for extended ride durations,
• increase trail access for local residents to parks, open space corridors, and
other areas of interest within the urban areas,
• serve persons with varied physical abilities and skills, and
• expand trail corridors to provide for a mixture of recreational uses.

8.8 On -road bicycle touring routes
Cross -county bicycle touring and commuter routes may be developed to access
major environmental assets, park and recreational facilities, historical features,
scenic corridors and vistas, and other features of interest to experienced bicycle
touring enthusiasts throughout Lake Oswego.
Where appropriate and to the extent practical and safe, bicycle touring routes
may be extended into local urban neighborhoods to create an integrated on -road
bicycling system. The local on -road bicycling system may provide access to local
park and recreational facilities, schools and public facilities, community centers
and business districts, places of employment, and transit transfer centers for
adult and youth bike riders from local areas.
To the extent possible, bicycling touring routes may be developed to class 1-3
AASHTO (American Association of State Highway & Transportation Officials)
standards with expanded, designated or marked road shoulders and lanes. In
the less congested areas, bicycle touring routes may be simply designated for
joint vehicular/bicycle use of a class 4 AASHTO standard.
Most of the bicycle touring routes proposed to be designated within this plan
have already been identified by bicycling enthusiasts working in conjunction with
public agencies and other private cycling interest groups. Future public bicycle
touring development projects may use the same cooperative, joint venture
approach to formally designate and improve existing routes and trailheads and/or
to develop new on -road routes, rest stops, and other bicycle touring or
commuting services.
Vision
As described, the bicycle touring route vision may:
• increase on -road bicycle touring access for experienced riders to scenic
areas and features,
• increase bicycle trail access for local residents, including commuters, to
community facilities, schools, employment, and transit transfer centers,
• service persons with varied physical abilities and skills, and
• expand roadway corridors to provide recreational and commuter uses.

8.9 Multipurpose trails
Multipurpose trails may be developed to link major environmental assets, park
and recreational facilities, community centers, and historical features on Lake
Oswego. Generally, multipurpose trails may be developed to provide for one or
more modes of recreational and commuter travel use including hiking and biking
where appropriate
To the extent possible, multipurpose trails may be developed within corridors
separate from vehicular or other motorized forms of transportation. For example,
multipurpose trails may be located on utility easements or in separate property
alignments. In some instances, the trail may developed as improvements within
the right-of-way of established vehicular or other transportation corridors.
Typically, multipurpose trails may be developed to class 1 walking trail and class
1 AASHTO (American Association of State Highway & Transportation Officials)
bicycle trail standards. The trails may provide 2 -way travel on a concrete, asphalt
or very fine crushed rock base between 8 and 12 feet in width. The trails may be
of a slope not more than 1:50, handicap accessible, and usable by all age and
skill groups.
Trail corridors may be improved with trailhead services including rest stops,
parking lots, restrooms, water, and air utilities. Where the trail is located in
association with another park and recreational improvement or public facility, the
trailhead may be improved with active picnic, playgrounds, and play areas.
Multipurpose trail corridors may be independent properties or include portions of
other sites provided for resource conservancies, resource activities, athletic
facilities, and other park and recreational or public facility properties. Linked with
resource conservancies and resource activities, the multipurpose trails element
pians may create a system of interconnected greenways to integrate and define
the developed portions of the urban area in accordance with the Growth
Management Act's (GMA) provisions for urban separators.
Multipurpose trail corridors may be developed on other publicly -owned lands
using public use agreements or special easements, or on lands owned as
portions of road and highway right-of-way, stream corridor conservation or buffer
zones of independent title.
Vision
As described, the multipurpose trails vision may be realized by providing
recreational trail opportunities that.
• conserve natural features,
• define urban identities,
• link community facilities.
• serve persons with varied physical abilities and skills, and
• promote commuter and other more functional transportation methods.

8.10 Streetscapes
Streetscape improvements, which are a more urban form of multipurpose trail,
may be developed to link community facilities, public buildings, commercial
business districts, and other major activity centers within the Lake Oswego
business districts. Generally, streetscapes may provide for one or more modes
of recreational and commuter travel use including hiking and biking where
appropriate - linked with public transit and other vehicular conveyance systems.
To the extent possible, streetscape improvements may be developed within the
right-of-way of established vehicular or other transportation corridors. Where
appropriate or necessary, however, the right-of-way or the streetscape
improvement may be aligned off the roadway to incorporate gateways, parks,
storefront boardwalks or plazas, and other pedestrian spaces.
Typically, the bikeway portion of streetscape corridors may developed to class 1
walking trail and class 1 AASHTO (American Association of State Highway &
Transportation Officials) bicycle trail standards. The trails may provide 2 -way
travel on a concrete, brick paver or asphalt base between 8 and 12 feet in width.
The trails may be of a slope not more than 1:50, handicap accessible, and
usable by all age and skill groups.
Streetscape corridors may be improved with trailhead services including rest
stops, parking lots, and transit connections. Where the streetscape is located in
association with another park and recreational improvement or public facility, the
corridor may be improved with active picnic, playgrounds, and play areas,
restrooms, water, and air utilities. Where the streetscape is incorporated into
adjacent retail spaces or plazas, the corridor may be improved with artworks and
sculptures, water fountains, outdoor dining areas, amphitheaters and performing
areas, and other activities of interest.
Streetscape corridors may be contained within or extensions of the public road
right-of-way or include portions of other public sites acquired to define gateways
or other linear park definitions. Streetscape improvements may also be
developed and maintained on privately -owned lands subject to public use
agreements or public access easements.
Vision
As described, the streetscape vision may be realized by providing recreational
and commuter trail opportunities within the most urban developed areas that:
• conserve natural features,
• define gateway and urban identities,
• link public facilities and commercial business centers,
• serve persons with varied physical abilities and skills,
• promote commuter and other more functional transportation methods, and
• create pedestrian -friendly access zones and activity areas that support urban
core areas.

8.11 Rail trails
Rail trails, which may combine railroad trains with other forms of non -motorized
trail use, will preserve historic railroad corridors linking urban areas with major
parks, landscapes, and scenic corridors.
Generally, rail trails will maintain existing railroad tracks to allow recreational or
scenic train rides with possible shared use for general freight, passenger, and
other more commercial rail activities where compatible. Recreational or scenic
train rides will in turn, extend and incorporate hike and bike opportunities
between the train destinations, as return trips, and for spur or short trips off the
main line.
To the extent possible, rail trails will utilize historic or period running stock to
preserve the original experience and maintain equipment. Rail trail stations,
destinations, and stopping points will be improved with trailhead services
including rest stops, parking lots, and transit connections. Where the rail trial is
located in conjunction with another trail use or park or public facility, the trailhead
may be improved with active picnic, playgrounds, and play areas, restrooms,
water, and other utilities.
Rail trails may be contained within the original railroad easements or ownership,
or as extensions of the public road right-of-way or include portions of other public
sites. Rail trail improvements and/or rolling stock may also be developed and
maintained on privately -owned lands or operations subject to public use
agreements or public access easements.
Vision
As described, the rail trail vision will preserve historic, scenic, and recreational
trail opportunities between the most urban developed areas and scenic
destinations that:
• conserve natural features,
• preserve historic improvements and artifacts,
• link urban areas and recreational destinations,
• serve persons with varied physical abilities and skills, and
• link rail trail uses with other non -motorized trails.
Existing rail trail
The following rail trail is a specialized segment of the regional trail system
1 Willamette Shore In 1984, the line was abandoned and 7.0
Trolley purchased by the non-profit Portland
Friends of the Willamette River
Greenway. The Oregon Electric Railway
Historical Society (OERHS) operates
the trolley 7 miles along the west bank
of the Willamette River to downtown
Portland. Trolleys are run on a daily
basis during the summer, on weekends
during the winter, and for special events
in cooperation with the Lake Oswego,
Portland, Clackamas and Multnomah
Counties, and Metro.
137
The route includes 2 high trestles,
including the 686 -foot long Riverwood
Trestle overlooking the Willamette

8.12 Recreational playgrounds, courts, and fields
Playgrounds and grassy field facilities may be developed on a local basis to
provide pickup games, youth sports, and leagues of interest to neighborhood
children and families. These local park improvements may be combined with
picnic shelters and tables, trail systems, natural areas, local schools, and other
facilities to create an accessible neighborhood service system on Lake Oswego.
More competitive athletic court and field facilities may be developed on an area -
wide basis to provide for the highest quality competitive playing standards and
requirements. The competitive athletic facility complexes may provide field
activities that satisfy the largest number of organized and older age recreational
league participants - including soccer, football, rugby, lacrosse, softball, and
baseball.
Generally, regional athletic facilities may be developed to provide for older youth
and adult league tournaments and other peak competition days, events, and
schedules - thereby freeing fields located at elementary schools, neighborhood
parks, and other local sites for younger age league participant games, practices,
and neighborhood resident pickup play.
Neighborhood playgrounds and competitive athletic facilities may be sited as
independent properties or portions of other sites that include trail corridors,
resource activities, multi -use indoor centers or other public facilities. Where
practical, neighborhood playgrounds may be co -located with elementary and
intermediate schools, and competitive athletic facilities with middle and high
schools. Where feasible and appropriate, both types of facilities may also be
sited on lands that are owned and operated for other public purposes.
Generally, neighborhood playgrounds may be located at sites serviced by trails
and local bicycling streets that are convenient to younger age neighborhood
youth and families Competitive athletic facilities may be located at sites serviced
by arterial roads that are convenient to older age youth and adult league
organizations. Regional athletic facilities may also be located on sites that can
accommodate relatively high traffic volumes, evening lighted field use, noise, and
other activities without adversely impacting adjoining land uses.
Neighborhood playground sites may be developed to provide flexible play
capabilities - typically providing 1 to 2 small to full-sized fields at one location.
Some sites may be designed to provide high capacity, flexible configurations on
large grass or dirt areas with portable goal and backstop stanchions to allow for
varied age groups and activities.
Competitive athletic field complexes may be developed to provide sustained,
high capacity play capabilities - typically providing at least 3 to 5 full-size
competition fields at one location. Most sites may be designed to provide high
capacity, fixed field configurations including grass or dirt fields with permanent
goals and backstops, perimeter fencing, spectator seating, and night -lighting
systems.
Both types of sites may be improved with restrooms, concessions, and parking
lots including grass overflow parking areas to accommodate peak events or
schedules. Depending on the location, some sites may also be improved with
141
tennis, basketball, volleyball courts, and other recreational facilities. Where
appropriate, some regionally competitive athletic sites may also be furnished with
group picnic kitchens and possibly even recreational vehicle services to support
tournament events.
When practical and feasible, regional athletic facilities may also be defined to
include school stadiums, particularly where the stadiums are located with other
competition fields or when the stadium can be used for recreational league
tournaments or special events.
Vision
As described, the neighborhood playground, courts, and fields facilities vision
may:
• provide flexible, informal playgrounds and areas,
• suited to younger age and local neighborhood game activities,
• in sites convenient to neighborhood youth and families,
• at sites that co-locate with elementary schools and facilities.
The regional courts and fields facilities vision may:
• provide the highest quality competitive play athletic facilities,
• of the highest capacity playing improvement designs,
• within convenient proximity to organized adult and older age recreational
league playing populations,
• at sites that do not disrupt adjacent land uses, and
• at sites that co-locate with schools and/or utilize other major public facilities.
The strategy may alleviate overcrowding on smaller, more local park and
elementary school fields so these sites can be used for younger age league
participant games, practice sessions, and neighborhood resident pickup games.

8.13 Recreation/community centers
Community centers may be developed to provide indoor activities on a year-
round basis throughout and/or centrally accessible to Lake Oswego residents for
day and evening use. The facilities may be developed within a market oriented
service concept that protects the specialized investments that have already been
made in these facilities by the school district, county, and private organizations.
Under some circumstances, community centers may not be developed in the
expanding urban growth areas where the using population will not be of sufficient
size to realistically support an independent facility. In these circumstances, an
existing center may be expanded within the next closest or supportable service
area to provide facility requirements and programs.
Indoor community or recreation facilities may provide space for swimming pools
(including outdoor facilities), gymnasiums, physical conditioning, arts and crafts,
class and instruction rooms, meeting facilities, kitchens and dining, daycare and
latch key, teen and senior center, and special population resource activities.
Community centers may also incorporate art studios and galleries, historic
museums, interpretive nature exhibits, and other buildings or constructions.
To the extent practical, community or recreation centers may utilize and/or be
developed in conjunction with local school facilities. Where practical, school
facilities may be utilized for after school programs that provide swimming pools,
indoor gymnasiums, class and instruction space, meeting facilities, kitchen and
dining either as loaned or leased space.
New buildings or additions may be built on or in conjunction with school sites as
a shared resource when existing school building spaces are not available or of
sufficient size to accommodate local needs. As a last resort, independent
community centers may be developed to provide suitable space only where
schools are not able to share space and sites.
Independent community center buildings and sites may also be developed to
provide space and services for adult, senior or teen center activities that occur
during or conflict with school activities and sites. Generally, these facilities may
provide space and services that are not suitably provided at school sites or that
may not be duplicated by school facilities and programs.
A variety of other public and private agencies may provide adult, senior, and teen
center services in association with the park department.
When community and recreation centers are developed independent of school
facilities, the buildings may be independent properties or portions of other sites
that include trail corridors, resource activities, athletic facilities or other public
facilities such as civic centers and libraries.
Vision
As described, the community and recreation center vision may:
• provide a variety of indoor activities,
• within a convenient and serviceable proximity to using populations,
159
• within a facility and services concept that recognizes and supports the
investments that have already made in existing park department, and school
facilities and programs, and
• in cooperative ventures with other interested and participating public and
private agencies.

Chapter 9: Implementation
9.1 Recommendation
Additional investment in Lake Oswego's park and recreation system is needed to
meet current and future demands, as indicated in Chapter 5.
The attached table (Proposed level of service (PLOS) additions — by site) lists
recommended improvements and investments for the next 15-20 years. The
investments listed are not in priority order and determining community priorities is
beyond the scope of this master plan. However, further assessment will be
needed to determine which investments the community feels are most necessary
in preparing Lake Oswego to meet future park and recreational needs.
9.2 Funding
The level of financial investment needed to fully implement the proposed
additions can not be financed with the resources available to Lake Oswego, Lake
Oswego School District, and other jurisdictions if each were to pursue an
independent delivery approach or use traditional methods of funding. In order to
deliver a comprehensive park and recreation system, Lake Oswego must use a
combination of creative approaches and funding mechanisms.
Historically, there have been three methods by which the City has paid for
needed capital improvements in its park system:
Parks System Development Charges (SDCs).
In accordance with Oregon state law, the City charges all new residential
development an SDC to help pay for the impact new development has on the
park system. Currently, the reimbursement component of the Park SDC is
$1,985 for a single-family residence, and the improvement component is $296.
Revenues from these fees can be used only to pay for expansion of the park
system or improvements directly related to accommodating growth.
The Parks SDC has not been increased since the early 1990's. It is
recommended that both components of the parks SDC be re -assessed to ensure
that new growth is contributing appropriately to the impact it has on the park
system.
General Obligation Bonds
187
In the past, the City has incurred debt to pay for improvements or expansion of
the park system. To incur this debt, the community, through a majority vote,
must authorize the City to sell general obligation bonds for a specific purpose.
The City then uses the bond proceeds to finance those specified improvements
while paying back debt via a tax on City property owners. Recent examples of
this financing method are the 1990 Parks and Open Space Bond Measure and
the 1998 Open Space Acquisition and Athletic Field Renovation Bond Measure.
Parks and Recreation Fund.
The primary source of revenues for the Parks and Recreation Fund is property
taxes. Property taxes are allocated agency -wide for five different uses: Public
Safety; Parks and Recreation; Library; Adult Community Center, and the General
Fund. Due to the passage of Ballot Measures 47 and 50, the assessed property
values state wide are capped at an increase of 3% annually plus new
construction. For the Lake Oswego, this results in a long-term reduction in
available resources for Parks capital projects. In the future, it's anticipated that
this funding source will be barely adequate to cover the replacement of existing
park infrastructure.
Future Funding Opportunities
Future spending for park capital projects may need to come from a variety of
sources. Re-evaluating the City's park SDC requirement will assist in funding
some expansion projects, but is unlikely to cover a significant portion of this
expense. Another park bond could be considered, but will have to compete for
the attention of the community with other pressing city infrastructure needs. A
local option levy is another possibility, which requires a vote of the community.
As with most local agencies, Lake Oswego has historically preferred to use local
option levies to assist in covering operating expenses, while using bond
proceeds for capital projects. Therefore, alternative -funding methods will also
need to be explored.
Possible alternative funding mechanisms could include:
• Public/partnerships;
• Leveraging city resources by purchasing access easements, conservation
easements, and development rights on private property;
• Tax incentives to private landowners to preserve sensitive lands, and
open space;
• Charitable donations;
• Creation of a non-profit Parks Foundation to financially support local park
and recreation facilities and programs.
These and other alternatives are discussed in greater detail in the Lake Oswego
Open Space Master Plan, adopted by the City Council in March 2001.

Subject: Athletic Field and Lighting Fees
Date: November 1, 2001
ACTION
Request that the City Council provide preliminary policy guidance to staff and the
Parks and Recreation Advisory Board (PRAB) on a percentage of costs recovery for
maintaining and lighting athletic fields.
BACKGROUND
Between 1995 and 2001 the City has made a significant investment in athletic fields
by spending $5,480,698 on capital improvements to city and school district
properties. At the same time, the City also maintains this investment by spending
funds on staff and materials to maintain and light these fields.
Over the past five years the costs of athletic field maintenance has steadily increased.
During this fiscal year, the City is budgeted to spend $435,684 in athletic field
maintenance, which is an 18.1% increase over previous year's costs. In addition to a
general increase in costs, electricity rates increased 67% this October. This increase
will result in an additional $12,000 to light athletic fields this year. To offset these
costs, it's anticipated that approximately $44,000 in revenues will be collected from
fees charged to user groups, which include both non-profit youth sports
organizations and city run high school and adult leagues. Thus, the City will recoup
just 10% of the costs of maintaining athletic fields.
Each year the City Council approves master fees and charges for City services. At
their October 19 meeting, PRAB reviewed and approved all proposed I'arks and
Recreation fees for 2002, with the exception of athletic field use fees. I'IZAB's
philosophy regarding field use fees has been that fees should be fair and equitable
so that all Lake Oswego citizens have reasonable access to recreational sporting
activities. At this meeting, PRAB discussed the current athletic field use and
lighting fees and determined that some changes to the current fees should be
considered, particularly in relation to lighting charges, yet no specific
recommendations were made.
DISCUSSION
In addition to property tax revenues, user fees have been the sole source of
additional income for offsetting maintenance costs. A variety of user fees are
charged which include field use fees, light card fees, and tournament fees. The
majority of revenues collected come from field use fees, followed by light card fees.
Light Cards
Light Cards are purchased by team coaches on a per year basis that allows them to
turn on field lights as needed. The current cost per card is $15, which is a $5 increase
over 2000. The City anticipates collecting $1,330 in FY 01-02 from this fee.
Field Use Fees
Field Use Fees are assessed to individual users on a per season basis. The current
resident rate is $7/player/season for youth and $10/player/season for adults,
which is a $1 increase per player over 2000. The City anticipates collecting $30,000
from youth leagues, and $14,000 from adult leagues during FY 01-02.
Although players pay the same rate, some teams use fields more frequently than
others depending upon the length of the season. For example, youth sports
programs include games and practices extending over a 2-3 month period on
average, while adult sport leagues generally only include games and last 9 to 10
weeks. The following chart describes the average cost per use, and is used only as
an approximation.

Rate Increases
It is clear that additional revenues must be identified in order to offset the escalating
costs of maintaining and lighting athletic fields, or the City will need to reduce its
maintenance standards. However, the challenge is to determine which rates to
increase and to do so in a manner that does not place an undue financial burden on
any one particular user group, or a significant and expensive administrative burden
on the Parks and Recreation Department.
In order to begin addressing the issue, staff recommends that two steps be taken:
1. Determine what percentage of the costs of maintaining and lighting athletic
fields should be covered by fees.
2. Decide which fees should be increased to achieve this percentage.
Determining Percentage of Costs
Council guidance is requested to assist PRAB and staff in determining the
appropriate percentage of costs that should be recouped by fees. As mentioned
previously, fees currently cover just 10% of the overall costs.
Which Fees to Increase
As mentioned previously a number of different types of fees make up the bulk of the
athletic fee revenue collected. The question becomes which fees should be
increased? Should the focus be on increasing field use fees for all users and/or
initiating a lighting surcharge? Other possibilities may also exist and should be
explored as needed.
Lighting Fees
A case can be made that groups using lights for games and practices are directly
benefiting and therefore should pay the full costs. Currently the city pays for
lighting five athletic fields - George Rogers Park, Waluga Park, Westlake Park,
Waluga Junior High School, and Lake Oswego Junior High School. The historic
costs of lighting these fields have averaged $20,000 per year. As mentioned, the
increase in electrical rates this past October will result in an additional $12,000 in
costs. PRAB recognizes that this is a significant increase and has suggested a
lighting surcharge be considered, however a specific amount has not yet been
determined.
Field Use Fees
Deciding upon a rate and method for assessing field fees is a major challenge due to
the nature of league seasons, frequency of use for games and practices, and the
21
difficulty in streamlining an effective reservation and fee collection process. If field
fees were to be increased significantly, staff would need to meet with user groups
and the Team Sports Advisory Committee to determine the best method of
implementing the new fees to achieve equity amongst users and to inspire ease in
administration.
RECOMMENDATION
At the November 5, 2001 City Council and PRAB workshop, staff will be presenting
more specific information about athletic field maintenance expenses and user fees to
help facilitate a discussion about the direction that should be taken in regards to
athletic field use fees.
Staff's anticipated outcome from this meeting is that Council and PRAB decide upon
the following issues so that staff can meet with user groups and then finalize
proposed athletic field use fees for the 2002 Master Fee schedule. Staff requests
Council to:
Determine a percentage of the costs of maintaining and lighting athletic fields
to be recovered by fees; and
• Decide whether alighting surcharge will be assessed and/or field use fees
will be increased.
After Council provides this preliminary policy guidance, staff will begin meeting
with the user groups.

Memorandum
From: Marcia Robertson, Co -Chair, Parks & Recreation Advisory Board
Stephanie Wagner, Co -Chair, Parks & Recreation Advisory Board
Subject: Athletic Field Use and Activity Fees
Date: June 22, 2001
Fees charged for athletic field use and fees charged for participating in athletic
activities in Lake Oswego have been discussed by the Parks and Recreation
Advisory Board for many years. Our philosophy has been that fees should be fair
and equitable so that all Lake Oswego citizens have reasonable access to recreational
sporting activities. We also feel that field use fees should help recoup some of the
city's costs in maintaining athletic fields.
Recently, we have become aware that many Lake Oswego residents are unhappy
about fees charged for field use and participation in athletic activities. PRAB feels
that this issue is important enough to request that the City Council consider
conducting a review of the city's field use fees to determine if the existing fees meet
maintenance needs as well as being reasonable for the community.
We would appreciate an opportunity to discuss this matter with you at your
convenience.

by other local agencies.
✓ Not all leagues and sports organizations are the same.
• Number of participants per league
• Length of season varies
• Number of practices and games fluctuate
• Some leagues use lights, others do not
✓ Any new or increased fee program must be discussed
with user groups, prior to adoption, to insure equitable
implementation.
