Parks & Open Space - Give us your input!

In May, Lake Oswego voters approved a parks and open spaces bond measure authorizing the City to issue general obligation bonds totaling $30 million.

The Parks Board is conducting a series of outreach activities to learn from LO residents about how to best invest the monies.

New City Hall Project

The new City Hall project is moving forward!

Early site work is expected to begin in June, including demolition of 320 and 366 A Ave (buildings east of the existing city hall), excavation, shoring, foundation, utility improvements and tree removal.

The new City Hall will provide a seismically safe, energy efficient and better functioning building for the community. It will include space for the Police Department and our 9-1-1 dispatch center (LOCOM), as well as public meeting places. It will also provide storefront space for the Lake Oswego Arts Council, and for the Friends of the Library’s “Booktique.”

Building A Better Boones Ferry Road

City Council awarded a contract to Wildish on May 21 to build the 20-year planned project improvements. Construction on this complex roadway and utility project will be ramping up throughout June. Lane closures will start the week of June 17 during tree removal. Starting June 24, instead of four lanesbetween Bryant and Madrona, there will only be three: one lane in each direction plus a center turn lane. Access to businesses will remain open - follow the blue cones and signage!

Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Ad Hoc Task Force

The City Council is looking for people to serve on an Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Task Force. The task force will focus on identify barriers to participation on the City’s Boards & Commissions, and identify methods by which to increase the applicant pool for City job openings. Individuals selected for the task force will meet at least once a month for a total of six months.

Applications are due by June 21, 2019.
