Lake Oswego Parks & Rec Fact Book Annual Report

2023 FACT BOOK

MESSAGE FROM DIRECTOR Hello, Community Members and Friends!

I am pleased to present the 2023 City of Lake Oswego Parks & Recreation Fact Book. It highlights the vast array of programs, events, and initiatives that make our parks vibrant, welcoming, and vital hubs of community life. We remain true to our mission to provide excellence in building community, enriching lives, and caring for the urban environment.

As you page through, you will note the many facts and figures that are astounding for a department of our size with events that reached approximately 200,000 people, tens of thousands of volunteer hours with stewardship, events, health and wellness initiatives, and humans services, along with breaking ground on the City of Lake Oswego Recreation & Aquatics Center and Rassekh Park this past year.

We continued work on the Golf Course and rehabilitated the Clubhouse building, which will be home to programming and events in 2024, and get a new name, Oswego Hall.

We continue to strive for greater sustainability with more electric fleet equipment and vehicles, and our parks staff has spent countless hours caring for our parks and natural areas, along with maintaining buildings, facilities, fields, restrooms, and more.

One of the outstanding accomplishments this past year was that Parks & Recreation joined the ranks of elite agencies nationwide by earning accreditation through the Commission for Accreditation of Park and Recreation Agencies (CAPRA). Read more about this on page 22.

The success of our department is a direct result of the collaborative spirit that defines our team. That includes the Lake Oswego City Council, the Parks, Natural Areas, and Recreation Advisory Board, the 50+ Advisory Board, and the citizens of Lake Oswego, plus the many dedicated staff members whose passion and tireless efforts have not only shaped our community spaces but have also left a lasting impact on the lives of those we serve enhancing the quality of life in our community.

With sincere appreciation,

PLANNING COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT – PARKS PLAN 2024 The success of projects and programs goes beyond bricks, mortar, gravel, and dirt. It's a testament to the strong sense of community that drives our Parks & Recreation vision and mission forward. In 2023, we started updating the long-range plan for parks, recreation, and natural areas. This plan, called "Parks Plan 2040," assesses demographic shifts in the community, addresses changing needs and preferences, and establishes a community vision for parks and recreation in Lake Oswego through the year 2040. It builds off the current long-range plan, Parks Plan 2025, which was adopted in 2012.

During the fall of 2023, we began work to engage the community through participation and input by way of surveys, in-person community outreach, and listening sessions with groups such as Friends of Parks, accessibility advocates, DEI advocates, youth, and other community groups.

The feedback will help formulate, goals, policies, and projects over the next 15 years. Work will continue throughout 2024 with additional community engagement and outreach, and the final plan will be presented to the City Council in early 2025.

More information is available at www.lakeoswego.city/parks-plan-2040 • 1,183 survey responses • 10 focus group meetings • 4 Community Advisory Committee & Parks, Recreation, and Natural Resources Advisory Board Meetings • 1 community open house 2023 Fact Book 15.

With the help of contractors, Friends Groups volunteers, and City staff, 380 acres are being restored and stabilized. To enhance these efforts, the Natural Areas Habitat Management Plan was developed and adopted by the City Council in December 2022.

Natural Areas Habitat Management Plan The Plan focuses on improved ecological resiliency for 27 of the City's natural areas already in restoration and provides a framework for managing other City-owned natural lands. This Plan seeks to achieve an overarching management goal to enhance and restore Lake Oswego's natural areas to provide safe and healthy ecosystems.

Invasive Removal Program (IRP) and Habitat Enhancement Program (HEP) Restoration work continues in Natural Area Parks by controlling invasive species and planting new native species.

BUILDING COMMUNITY THROUGH PROJECTS A YEAR OF VIBRANT GROWTH AND PROGRESS The vision to enhance the quality of life for residents and visitors alike has been met with success, thanks to a series of transformative projects that have taken root and blossomed over the past 12 months, thanks to the 2019 Bond.

Lake Oswego Recreation & Aquatic Center (LORAC) and Oswego Hall (formerly the Clubhouse) This intergovernmental project broke ground on March 17, 2023, with City officials, Lake Oswego School District board and administration, contractors, the public, and staff.

With a commitment to promoting health and wellness, this facility will have over 65,000 square feet of recreation space, including a recreational and competition pool, gym, meeting spaces, a spa, and cardio and weight areas that will cater to the diverse interests of our community members. The projected opening is late 2024.

Golf Course Dan Hixson, the renowned NW golf course architect, worked his magic throughout the year by designing the 9-hole executive course to be like none other. From creating each hole through working with equipment directly on the site rather than on paper, he created a course that will appeal to the seasoned pro or novice golfer. The redesigned course promises an enjoyable and challenging round, surrounded by breathtaking views that showcase the natural beauty of our community. The opening will coincide with the LORAC in late 2024.

Rassekh Park Phase 1 groundbreaking was held on September 28, 2023, with skate enthusiasts, community members, City officials, contractors, desingers, and staff. This first phase of construction includes the skatepark completion, the public right-of-way improvements, parking areas, utilities, a new access road, and the restroom facility. The skatepark will open in the summer of 2024.

Phase 2 and Phase 3 are continuing funding strategies for completion.

George Rogers Picnic Shelter Work continued for this 2019 bond project. Concrete was poured, and the structure was completed. Final work will be done in early 2024 to add the picnic tables, BBQ, BBQ, and landscaping, with the shelter open in February.

Tennis Center Grand Re-opening Another 2019 bond project was completed in 2023, with a grand re-opening of the Tennis Center held on January 28, 2023. This project made way for a new lobby, ADA access, viewing areas, bathroom upgrades, court resurfacing, and office space. The total budget for this project was $2,377,471.26. Since this is an enterprise facility, it is self-supporting and utilizes funds from programs, reservations, and other revenue streams. Check out more information on page 12 highlighting the 8,752 participant hours that were achieved over the past year.

CAPRA

The City of Lake Oswego Parks & Recreation joined the ranks of elite park and recreation agencies nationwide by earning accreditation through the Commission for Accreditation of Park and Recreation Agencies (CAPRA).

This distinguished accomplishment was awarded during the 2023 NRPA Annual Conference in October.

CAPRA accreditation is the only national accreditation for park and recreation agencies and is a measure of an agency's overall quality of operation, management, and service to the community. This distinction indicates that an agency has met rigorous standards for managing and administrating lands, facilities, resources, programs, safety, and services.

The process for accreditation involves a formal application, self-assessments, a site visit by a team of trained volunteers that results in a written report, and a hearing with the commission to grant accreditation.

BENEFITS OF ACCREDITATION FOR OUR COMMUNITY • Demonstrates that the department meets national standards of best practice • Recognizes the community as a great place to live • Helps secure external financial support and reduce costs for the community • Holds the park and recreation department accountable to the public and ensures responsiveness to meet their needs • Ensures that all staff are providing quality customer service FOR THE PARKS & RECREATION DEPARTMENT • Provides positive public and political recognition • Proves to decision-makers, stakeholders, and the public that your department is operating with the best practices of the profession • Increases credibility and can improve internal and external funding • Improves overall operations and increases efficiency • Enhances staff teamwork and pride by engaging all staff in the process • Creates an environment for regular review of operations, policies and procedures, and promotes continual improvement We are thrilled that we are the 6th agency in Oregon and one of the 205 agencies throughout the United States.
