Portland Parks & Recreation - Winter 2015

2 Westside Parks 503-823-PLAY

Third-grade students from a North Portland elementary class were recently on a field trip in Forest Park learning about local plants, watersheds and erosion. Along the trail the staff found an oak leaf with a gall still attached to it. After a quick explanation of how an insect lays an egg and the leaf modifies to grow around it until it chews its way out as an adult, one of the girls exclaimed, “Wait! What??? It grows inside this house and then chews out of it?!? Oh my gosh!” and then turns behind her and yells, “Mom! Listen to this!!!!”

Education about PP&R’s natural areas brings ecology to life through relevant and meaningful, hands-on experiences. Programs are facilitated by highly trained naturalists that make an educational goal of combining exploration and inquiry with wonder and connection. Whether our staff is working with children barely two-years old or young adults approaching the end of their college career, we find that nature offers a universal experience – spaces beg to be investigated, colors and textures beg to be noticed, questions beg to be asked. We agree fully with David Sobel, who wrote: “If we want children to flourish, to become truly empowered, let us allow them to love the earth before we ask them to save it.”

At Portland Parks Environmental Education we begin this empowerment at a young age when a sense of curiosity and wonder are at their peak. We teach children and their grown-ups how to explore with simple tools and give practical tips and techniques for keeping children engaged in a natural space. We get excited about puddles and worms and spider webs. We take the time to run down hills and hide under “umbrella trees.” The wonder of nature is our focus, and we make time to discover all the different places we can find it.

As children get older we can bring them into the forest for longer and longer periods of time. We can spend two hours on the trail with students and their teachers learning about the plants and animals. We can spend a whole week with a group of campers, giving them the time and space to play games and explore and be creative with all of nature’s loose parts. Ideas are shared, creativity is executed and relationships are built.

As youth grow into complex, discerning teen-agers, Environmental Education starts the process of turning basic curiosity and exploration into focused science education and turning relationship building into life-long friendships and

deliberate long-term mentoring. We empower teens with job skills and prepare them for the real world. We demonstrate love of our natural areas through work and stewardship. Eventually, these teens grow into adults who then turn around and give back. Some bring restoration and new trails to our parks. Some protect our forests from invasive plants. Some bring the wonder and curiosity back to our youngest nature participants.

Become part of our education and career pipeline – we offer programs for very young children, preschoolers, elementary students and teens!

New city tree code implemented on January 2nd

SWNI is holding a tree code workshop on November 18, from 6 to 8 pm, in the Multnomah Arts Center auditorium, 7688 SW Capitol Hwy. The workshop’s purpose is to teach about the new city tree code (Title 11 of the city code) that comes into effect on January 2, 2015 and accompanying programmatic changes. The workshop is free. Whether you are a property owner, or in the business of cutting or pruning trees, or someone who loves trees, this is an event you should attend.

The new tree code was adopted in 2011 but a lack of money to implement it caused the delay this coming January

The new tree code is much needed. Navigating the city’s bureaus and code for tree-related issues is daunting. Code language is scattered around in several chapters—called titles—in the city code. In part because several bureaus have jurisdiction over trees, people with tree issues are sometime unsure whom to call in the city. Urban Forestry, part of the Parks Bureau, has jurisdiction over heritage trees and trees in parks and public rights-of-way, and in limited situations, private trees. The Bureau of Development Services (BDS) has jurisdiction when the trees are impacted by development, like a new land division. The Bureau of Environmental Services (BES) has jurisdiction over trees preserved pursuant to the Stormwater Management Manual.

The reforms in the new tree code are both procedural and substantive. Here is a summary of key elements from a city handout:

• Asinglepointofcontactatthecityforpeoplewithtreerelated issues or questions. This is good—people too often now are calling around trying to find the right bureau for their issue.

• ConsolidationoftreerulesintheTitle11code.

• A website with information regarding tree care, rules,best practices, and permits.

• Improvedtreepreservation.

• New treedensity standards tomaintain tree canopyondevelopment sites.

• Better protection for trees on property lines, on sitesadjacent to construction sites.

• Consistenttreatmentfortreesinsensitiveenvironmentalresource areas.

• Astreamlinedandstandardizedtreepermitsystem.

SW Neighborhoods Parks and Community Centers CommitteeBy Leonard Gard, Program Manager, SWNI

The implementation will be unique because it will create a partnership between BDS and Urban Forestry. Staffers from the two departments have meetings regularly. The budget will pay for at least 5.5 positions:

• Anassociateplanner in theLandUseServicesdivisionof BDS will do the review of tree regulations. The majority of the regulations will be in the new Title 11, but some regulationswillbeinTitle33,thezoningcode.

• TwotechniciansatUrbanForestry.Theywillbeintakeinquiries from the public.

• 2.5treeinspectorsatBDS.Theywillbecertifiedarboristsand will work on both development and non-development cases. On the development cases, tree inspectors will work in cooperation with building inspectors.

The new code will get rid of the provision in the current code that exempts from regulation a residential property that is not dividable and is occupied by a single family homes.

SWNI is proud to have played a role in the adoption of the new tree code. Concern about a loss of trees in southwest Portland was growing, and in response the Southwest Tree Committee was formed and began meeting in March of 2005. Core members included SWNI Land Use Committee chair John Gibbon, Margot Barnett, and Greg Schifsky. Others who attended meetings and contributed were Rich Adelman, Neil Blatner, Micki Carrier, Jayne Cronlund, Tim Cushing, LillieFitzpatrick,SteveMullinax,SusanMurray,andVictorVon Salza. The committee’s work resulted in an October2005 report calling for reforms that went to the city.

Multnomah Arts Center

Michael Walsh, the Executive Director of the Multnomah Arts Center (MAC), was a recent guest at a Parks Committee meeting. If you’re not acquainted yet with MAC, you should do so soon. It’s a facility of Portland Parks & Recreation, and it’sanabsolutecommunitytreasureinMultnomahVillagejustofftheintersectionof SW 31st and Capitol Highway. Pick up the catalog that lists all the classes and events. There are classes (for both adults and children) for just about every possible art medium: clay, wood, drawing and painting, pottery, textiles, metal, photography,

dance, theater, music, lithography, basketry. There is an art gallery. There are theater performances. There was a recent literary arts reading. If you have children from age 2 through age 4, look into the Little Artists Preschool. The MAC phone number is 503-823 ARTS (2787).

Comprehensive plan update

State law requires all cities and counties in Oregon to have comprehensive plans to address future growth and development. Portland’s current plan—adopted in 1980 and amended several times—is out-of-date. So Portland is writing a new plan that is expected to serve Portland until 2035. In July, the city’s Bureau of planning & Sustainability issued its proposed draft comprehensive plan. The Planning & Sustainability Commission (PSC) held four hearings on the draft plan from September through November. Portland Parks & Recreation representatives are at the table in the discussions with other city bureaus and will be working on the final plan with PSC. Then the PSC will issue its own recommended plan that will go to the Portland City Council. The Parks Committee has been following the development of the 2035 comprehensive plan because there are parks-related issues in the plan. Comments from the public are more than welcome either directly to PP&R staff or to the SWNI Parks Committee. Chapter 3 addresses urban habitat corridors. Chapter 7 addresses habitat

connectivity and the urban forest. And chapter 8 addresses parks and recreation. So the committee will continue to follow parks-related issues as the comprehensive planning proceeds.

Parks Committee meetings

The committee is one of the standing committees of Southwest Neighborhoods, Inc., a nonprofit corporation that serves seventeen neighborhood associations in southwest Portland. The committee meets every first Thursday of the month, usually at the Multnomah Arts Center. The public is always invited to attend. For more information, call Leonard at 503-823-4592. And subscribe to SWNI’s monthly newspaper, the SW Neighborhood News, by calling or visiting the website, www.swni.org. It’s free.

Portland Parks & Recreation

SHARE YOUR GOALS. The people that love you and care about you are going

to be thrilled when you tell them about your decisions. Don't do this journey alone.

You're going to need a support system to help you through, to talk to when things get

difficult, and even to work out with you when you don't want to do it alone.

GET INVOLVED. Get involved in something official. Whether it be a running

club, a master's swim class, a regular yoga class, or anything that will help you meet

people with the same goals and dreams. Getting involved will also help you to keep

coming back. It gives you an obligation and accountability system that is crucial to

your success. Rather than just going out each day and saying, "Well, what should I do today?," you will

start to make your lifestyle change part of your everyday routine--which is the ultimate goal.

FIND SOMETHING THAT WORKS FOR YOU. Do you despise running? Then don't. Do you hate

staying in one place? Don't use the elliptical. You have to want to keep coming back, so do something

you can enjoy.

KEEP STATS. Don't just rely on the scales to show you how far you've come. Write down how long

it took you to run your first mile, your first 5K, etc. If it has a number, and you are looking to improve

it, record it somehow.

SET (REALISTIC) GOALS, AND KEEP THEM SHORT-TERM. If you go into this thinking,

"I have to lose 200 pounds. Let's get started," you will be overwhelmed and your chances of failing will

skyrocket. Break it down into small increments, maybe 10 or 15 pounds at a time. You're more likely to

stick with 10 pounds in two months than 200 pounds over two years.

BE PREPARED FOR FAILURE. You aren't going to be perfect. There are going to be many times

whenyoueatwaytoomuchpizzaatthefootballpartyorskipfourworkoutsinarow.Thecrucialthing

here is to anticipate these moments, move on from them, and put yourself back on the wagon. A few missed

workouts will not erase your hard work and a few thousand extra calories will not put the pounds back

on. It's easy to feel sorry for yourself and give up, but don't. You don't want to go back to the beginning.

MEET THE PERSONAL TRAINERS OF SOUTHWEST COMMUNITY CENTER

GAIL NELSON how are you able to relate to people experiencing health & fitness challenges? Regarding the issue of “not enough time,” I can definitely relate. Before I became a trainer and got paid to exercise, I was a mom with two small kids, and it was a struggle to find the time. During those years I was part of what I called the “early morning crowd” – at times I’d be here at 5:15 a.m. when the center opened. At other times I’d attend the 6 a.m. class that I now teach (Morning Blast). Some days I didn’t make it at all and that was OK because I was doing the best I could and “something was better than nothing.”

what are your personal fitness goals? I believe that achieving and maintaining health/wellness/fitness is a life-long journey. My goals are to continue on my journey of staying healthy, active and strong. I want to continue to strive for a balanced life of fitness, good healthy food, friends/family, faith, rest/relaxation, and laughter!

Would you build a house without a blueprint? Of course not! So why would you try to construct the body you desire without a professional plan?

JOHN CUNNINGHAMhow are you able to relate to people experiencing health & fitness challenges? Being overweight, and generally unhealthy for a number of years, I know the challenge of getting up and making a commitment to make a change. I have also experienced my share of injuries and understand just how difficult it can be to work through those times while maintaining your health, but as long as you can move, you can improve! No matter what challenges you face, it is better to move in a positive direction than to do nothing.

what are your personal fitness goals? In the last year I have struggled with an injury that prevented me from running, which is what I enjoy the most. My goal was to maintain my cardiorespiratory fitness, while continuing to adhere to my PT’s prescribed treatment for rehabilitation. I have been successful in both areas and now have set a goal to begin running again, avoiding injury, so that I will be in shape to run my 4th marathon next year and qualify for the Boston Marathon.

And I'm here to attest Health and Fitness challenges DO have silver linings!

Saturday, September 27 was the Opening Social for the recently acquired Eagle Point property as part of the SW Terwilliger Parkway. Commissioner Nick Fish, Portland Parks & Recreation (PP&R) Director Mike Abbaté, and Historian/Architect Author William Hawkins III gave small speeches to welcome the 50 or so people attending.

Eagle Point is located at 4099 SW Lowell Lane, south of the VeteransAffairshospital on the east sideofSWTerwilligerBlvd. First identified in the 1904 Olmsted report to the Parks Board, Terwilliger was the only Parkway in the extensive plan to be purchased and maintained by the City as originally designed. The Eagle point site in particular was noted as an important location in the Terwilliger Parkway Corridor Plan that Portland City Council adopted in 1983, stating “The Parks Bureau shall work with the neighboring property owners to re-acquire a portion of the right-of-way vacated in 1963 and improve the viewpoint for pedestrians and bicyclists."

Over30years later that visionhasbeen realized, thanks toMayor Hales, who made SDC funds (fees on development) available for the purchase after the Friends of Terwilliger first made the bureau aware the property was for sale in the summer of 2012. The Trust for Public Lands helped broker thedeal,andnowsite-stabilizationworkbyPP&Rcrewsismostly complete after removing the old building that was there. The public is invited to enjoy the views during regular park hours.

Spring Break Camps

Within the Americans with Disability Act (ADA) of 1990, Portland Parks & Recreation (PP&R) provides accommodations to individuals with disabilities/special needs, so that they may receive an equal opportunity to participate in programs offered citywide.

How it Works1. Choose the activity you would like to

participate in, and then the PP&R site where the activity is being offered.

2. Register for the activity. You can do this in person at a PP&R site, or on-line at www.PortlandParks.org. When registering, let the person know that you will need accommodations in order to participate in the activity (online, check the box.)

3. Once registered, please contact Inclusion Services at 503-823-4328. If this is your first accommodation through Inclusion Services you will need to do a phone intake with a staff member. At the end of the phone intake, it will be determined whether an assistant will be needed on the first day of the activity to provide on-site support. Future assistance will be provided based on need. The inclusion staff will work with the instructor on how to support you and your individual needs.

Important DetailsA general program may be adapted using auxiliary aids and services, but the basic structure of the program remains the same. Accommodations are made as needed, and can be flexible and creative. Participants need to register for activities that are intended for their birth age. Personal care is provided for activities in the pre-school and youth category, up through age 12.

If you have questions about Inclusion Services, please call 503-823-4328 V/TTY. A minimum of 10 business days (Monday-Friday) advance notice is required. The Inclusion Services staff will do their best to accommodate each participant.
