Gravel Roadway on Lakeview Boulevard through Summer

On Wednesday, June 25, crews will be removing existing asphalt on Lakeview Boulevard, between the Swim Park and Summit Drive. Expect delays from 7 AM–6 PM. After that, most of Lakeview will be a temporary gravel roadway through August, as we rebuild the road base and prepare for paving. Key information:

If you don’t need to drive or bike on Lakeview, please use alternate routes—this area will be rough, dusty, and under active construction all summer.
Reminder: Lakeview remains ONE-WAY eastbound ONLY between South Shore and Iron Mountain through summer.

Preparing For Emerald Ash Borer- Workshop

On June 28, from 10 to 11:30 p.m. at Foothills Park, join ISA Board Certified Master Arborist Christine Johnson of Todd Prager & Associates to learn about the invasive emerald ash borer (EAB) and how to prepare for its future establishment in our area. The EAB is a tiny green insect with the potential to wipe out ash and white fringe trees in only a few years if left untreated.

The invasive EAB was first discovered in Oregon in 2022 in Forest Grove, just 30 miles northwest of Lake Oswego. In August 2024, the EAB was also confirmed in Yamhill, Marion, and Clackamas counties.

Capacity is limited to 30 participants. Register now!

Stafford Road Closure

Road construction to improve safety on Stafford Road is underway. Stafford Road will be closed to thru traffic between Johnson Road and Childs Road through September 30, 2025.

This is a Clackamas County Road Improvement Project. This project involves adding a roundabout at Childs Road, realigning Johnson Road to eliminate intersection skew and reduce steep slopes, adding a southbound left-turn lane at Johnson Road, widening Stafford Road between Pattulo Way and Rosemont Road to add bike lanes, and replacing the Pecan Creek culvert at Childs Road with a larger, fish-passable culvert.

Construction is expected to continue on this project through September 2026.

Please Don't Flush It: Help Prevent Costly Sewer Clogs

Our Public Works crews have recently seen a sharp increase in non-flushable items clogging pumps in our sewer system. Items like wipes (even those labeled “flushable”), plastic applicators, paper towels, and even tube socks have been found jamming the system.

These items don’t break down like toilet paper and can create serious blockages, damage equipment, and cause costly backups—not just at the pump station, but potentially in your own home.

Only three things should go down the toilet: pee, poop, and (toilet) paper. When in doubt, throw it out!
