(CAC comment) • Will this plan overlap with the Urban and Community Forestry Plan Update? o Kyra will coordinate with the Lake Oswego Planning Department for relevant information. • How is social media being utilized for this Plan? o Periodic social media blasts across City social platforms using the City- wide accounts. • Add Lake Oswego School District Special Education Advisory Board to engagement efforts. 2. What questions and/or comments do you have about the State of the System?Is anything missing? What else is important to highlight? • Missing: o Section addressing multi-modal access and pedestrian connectivity to parks. It's very important to be able to access parks, particularly for young people. The new skate park at Rassekh Park will be a good example. o Connecting recommendations from this process to other City departments and planning processes also is important. The Parks Plan 2040 could have policies that address other city planning topics. • Revisions: o Update Park Facilities counts (exclude school district properties) o Add Historical Resources to Inventory o Update Table 5, add "N/A" to empty cells 3. Public Comment • Friends of Luscher Farm Board Member requested that the CAC and LO 2040 process consider the unique nature of Luscher Farm and stated that they will be following along closely.

Subquently,the City of Lake Oswego made the survey available to all community members(Community Engagement). Research Methodology General population Respondents were contacted randomly from a list of registered voters.' Telephone respondents were contacted by a live interviewer and text-to-online respondents received a text invitation directing them to an online survey. In gathering responses, a variety of quality control measures were employed, including questionnaire pre-testing and validation. Quotas were set by gender, age, educational attainment, race and ethnicity, and area of the city. Community engagement After general population survey,the City of Lake Oswego opened the survey to all community members. The city shared the online survey link though various communication channels to ensure the widest reach. Statement of Limitations The General Population survey consisted of 403 Lake Oswego residents, and the Community Engagement portion consisted of 780 residents,for a total of 1,183 respondents.The survey took approximately 13 minutes to complete. General population Any sampling of opinions or attitudes is subject to a margin of error.The margin of error is a standard statistical calculation that represents differences between the sample and total population at a confidence interval, or probability, calculated to be 95%.This means that there is a 95% probability that the sample taken for this study would fall within the stated margin of error if compared with the results achieved from surveying the entire population.The margin of error for this survey is ±4.9%. 1 In November 2022,94%of eligible Oregonians were registered to vote.Given the city's demographic profile it is likely higher in Lake Oswego. #I ■ ■ ■ . 11110110010 • • glum 01 - IlII1 _iI I _I�, , II II iuii I Community engagement Community engagement surveys do not rely on random sampling and therefore, a margin of error cannot be calculated.

The current Plan ("Parks Plan 2025") was adopted in 2012. Much has changed in Lake Oswego since the adoption of Parks Plan 2025, including numerous park and facility upgrades and improvements, construction of new parks and amenities funded by the 2019 Parks Bond, and changing needs and preferences as a result of demographic shifts in the community. While Parks Plan 2025 has served as an important guide over the past decade, it's time to take a fresh look at the parks, facilities, activities, and services that Lake Oswego Parks & Recreation offers. The Parks Plan 2040 process will be guided by input from community members, the Community Advisory Committee (CAC), the Parks, Recreation, and Natural Resources Advisory Board (PRNRAB), and the Lake Oswego City Council. The planning process will provide numerous opportunities for community members to provide their input on the goals, policies, and objectives of the Plan, with a focus on making engagement events equitable and inclusive to all Lake Oswego community members. Ultimately, the Lake Oswego City Council will consider adoption of the final Plan. Parks Plan 2040 Framework This strategic framework will provide guidance for developing and implementing Parks Plan 2040 to ensure that decisions align with the community's vision and priorities. It includes the vision, goals, and objectives for parks, natural areas, recreation facilities, activities, and services. Together, these provide a foundation for system-wide recommendations. More specific improvements and other recommendations will be developed in later phases of the planning process based on community and stakeholder input, advisory board guidance, and a technical analysis of the parks system. This initial working draft provides a starting point to discuss the shared future vision with the community. It is based on outcomes of Phase 1 outreach and analysis, including initial focus group conversations, and meetings with City staff and the PRNRAB, as well as recent or ongoing plans or efforts including the City's Comprehensive Plan, the Climate Action Plan, and diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives. The intent is to build on and refine this initial draft as community outreach and engagement continues to inform and shape Parks Plan 2040. LAKE OSWEGO PARKS PLAN 2040 12 The framework is organized by one overarching vision, goals, and subsequent objectives that give the community, stakeholders, and decision-makers a clear picture of the desired Lake Oswego parks and recreation system of the future. Vision Summarizes the community's ' Objectives aspirations for parks Provide general and recreation. direction for Recommendations what Lake Implement the Oswego aims to vision and goals achieve. with more specific System-wide and site or measureable specific improvements, actions or projects, and initiatives outcomes. (will be identified later in the panning process) RELATION TO THE CITY'S COMPREHENSIVE PLAN The City developed Parks Plan 2025 to provide citywide guidance for parks and recreation within the framework of the City's current Comprehensive Plan which had a planning period of 2035. Parks Plan 2040 will continue to align with the Comprehensive Plan, while presenting a renewed vision for the parks, trails, and natural areas system in Lake Oswego. Comprehensive Plan Vision In 2035, Lake Oswego is a thriving, sustainable city, meeting the community's needs without compromising the needs of future generations. Our community is recognized for its quality of life, exceptional schools, and excellent local government. Our multi-generational neighborhoods, healthy natural resources, vibrant mixed-use shopping, employment districts, and diverse services and activities are accessible to all. LAKE OSWEGO PARKS PLAN 2040 Draft Vision Elements Based on initial outcomes of the Parks Plan 2040 process, the following elements describe the envisioned future parks and recreation system. Additional involvement and feedback from the community will be used to continue to shape these elements into a single vision statement that will be used to guide plan recommendations. • The City of Lake Oswego provides an inclusive park and recreation system that is enjoyed by all neighborhoods, community members, and visitors. • Parks, natural areas, recreation facilities, activities, events, and services are integral to the fabric and character of the community and provide memorable and enriching experiences, connections, and contribute to a healthy environment. • The interconnected park and recreation system is sustainable and resilient, and supported by collaborative community partnerships.

LAKE OSWEGO PARKS PLAN 2040 18 4�A E� � ) MEMORANDUM anr �" ° oR LAKE OSWEGO PARKS PLAN 2040 TO: Parks Plan 2040 CAC and PRNRAB FROM: Parks Plan 2040 Project Team DATE: November 27, 2023 SUBJECT: Park and Recreation Facility Classification System Update Background Park and recreation facilities are classified by type in order to evaluate standards for service, identify compatible recreation amenities and opportunities, and guide strategic investments for a varied park and recreation system. Classifications are driven by a park or facility's physical attributes such as its size, geographic location, and natural features, as well as how it is used by the community and the types of amenities or experiences it offers. Lake Oswego's previous park and recreation system plan (Parks Plan 2025) classified Lake Oswego's parks both according to their size and function (scale) as well as their level of development(character) to form a matrix park classification system. During the existing conditions assessment phase of Parks Plan 2040, Lake Oswego Parks & Recreation determined that the classification system from Parks Plan 2025 did not work well for planning and reporting purposes, or for regional or national benchmarking. The project team reviewed park classification systems used by other communities throughout the region and state, and also looked to state and national best practices regarding classifications, benchmarking, and level of service standards. Staff developed a revised classification system that includes nine new park and facility categories. Parks Plan 2040 Park and Recreation Facility Classification System Similar to Parks Plan 2025,the revised classification system considers both size and scale, and also provides guidance related to what types of amenities should be provided,what types of recreation activities may be compatible, how the park or facility should function, and who are its primary users. The revised system will be used to help guide planning and investment in Lake Oswego's park and recreation system through the year 2040. LAKE OSWEGO PARKS PLAN 2040 I 1 Recreation Facilities Recreation facilities are staffed, owned, and operated by Lake Oswego Parks& Recreation.They serve the entire community by providing year-round recreation activities, services, and programs.They vary in size and may be located within parks or exist as standalone sites.

Proximity and walkability to parks provides a variety of benefits such as improved public health outcomes and greater social connectivity. The park access analysis and equity index mapping identify areas of Lake Oswego that are underserved by parks as well as other gaps or service inequities in the existing system. Together, they provide a more detailed snapshot of Lake Oswego's needs and opportunities, helping inform and prioritize future investment in the park system. The Parks Plan 2040 access analysis and equity index mapping approach builds on what was completed in Parks Plan 2025, while bringing in additional available data to identify areas that lack convenient access to parks and areas that lack access to certain types of essential park services. The steps in the proposed process are outlined below. Existing System Mapping To inform the park access analysis, Lake Oswego's existing park and recreation system was mapped. Map 1: Existing Park System Map: This map shows the existing parks and recreation facilities in Lake Oswego and how each site is classified (regional park, community park, neighborhood park, pocket park, natural area, trail corridor, undeveloped open space, urban plaza, or recreational facility). Map 2: Existing Park Maintenance Tiers: This map shows how each park and facility is maintained (basic, standard, natural area, standard/natural area, enhanced or maintained by others). Park Access Analysis Using ArcGIS Network Analyst', the following maps will consider the actual paths of travel to parks and essential park services to identify areas that are served and unserved by parks. The selected essential park services were identified by the Parks Plan 2025 process and align with Parks Plan 2040 engagement efforts, including: exercise and sports, play for children, and experiencing nature. Map 3:All Parks Access Map: This map will show areas within walking distance (1/4 and 1/2 mile of park access points, or a 10-minute walk) to all existing parks and facilities. Map 4-6: Essential Service Access Maps: These maps will show areas within walking distance of parks and facilities with each essential park service (exercise and sports, play for children, and experiencing nature) to help identify service inequities within the existing system. Map 7: Park Access Gap Area Map: This map will identify gap areas that are not currently within walking distance of parks and facilities, and/or essential park services. Equity Index Mapping The gap areas identified In Map 7 will be further evaluated using equity-based characteristics to note areas with a higher severity of need. Once equity index mapping is complete, an analysis of severity of need will be completed to identify opportunities to serve park access gaps. Map 8-12: Equity Index Maps: These maps will utilize different demographic and socio- economic census block group data to visualize the gap areas with the greatest need in Lake Oswego, including any concentrations of traditionally underserved communities. Potential equity indicators include youth under 18, populations over 65, communities of color, residential density, and populations with a disability. LAKE OSWEGO PARKS PLAN 2040 I 2
