PARKS tt OPEN SPACE Trends in Playgrounds Woodburn residents strongly value their parks and recreation facilities and park playgrounds are an important element in outdoor recreation. Reported in Landscape Architect magazine,the top five playground industry trends for 2021 were compiled a:. uomiimNu IIIIIIIIII�II II i �� 6� from data and feedback from parks professionals, landscape architects, and educators. 1. Inclusive Playgrounds, increasingly popular �� „ V9ltwJ over the last few years, have been evolving beyond meeting basic ADA guidelines. Designers are seeking to expand accessible playground equipment, consider multi-generational play, and leverage inclusive play to help overcome societal barriers. 2. Rope-based Playgrounds,climbers and playground nets provide a technique for working around natural environments and unusual topography. Their flexibility in placement offers more options for connecting with the landscape rather than working around difficult topography. 3. Outdoor Fitness has increased importance during the COVID-19 pandemic as many gyms and indoor fitness centers closed and forced more people to seek outdoor options. Outdoor fitness spaces are being increasingly integrated into park and trail designs to encourage health and physical fitness for all ages. 4. Outdoor Learning has been implemented during the pandemic to replace or supplement indoor classrooms. Outdoor classrooms can encourage " i z activity in children to counteract the reduction in recess time due to hybrid class schedules and �U71 remote learning. Seating, tables, shelters, hand sanitizer stations and other outdoor products are helping create outdoor classrooms. 5. Human-powered Play engages users to provide physical energy to "power-up" the activity, such as turning a handle, pressing foot pedals, rotating wheels. These products often relate to sensoryn experiences like lights and music, story-telling, or SOCIaI games. Spurred on by the social distancing of the � � �/�j� pandemic,these five trends in playground design and development point to more human-to- human interactions that reinforce the value of social connections, even in a physically distanced environment. Update the wonderful spaces we already have, before creating new ones. Resfnoorns at Centennial Park need a major overhaul, as well as the pool.

Volunteers and community groups already contribute to a variety of community programs and events, such as youth sport or aquatics support, at the I ibrary, and special events like Fiesta Mexicana. The City could engage volunteers in additional park and recreation projects like tree plantings, trail maintenance, park clean- ups, and other small works or volunteer-appropriate projects. Woodburn currently maintains a webpage of volunteer-appropriate projects, which should continue to Ibe updated and promoted through the website and social media platforms and via partnerships with school district.

Woodburn residents,when asked about the overall condition of the parks they have visited, shared a positive view with 79%of responses being fair to excellent, leaving 14%stating poor condition and 7% with no opinion.Although there is a positive perception of the maintenance condition of parks,the community desires more amenities and park upgrades, with only 57%of respondents being satisfied to very satisfied with Woodburn's parks, recreation facilities and open spaces. Overall,survey respondents would like to see the City prioritize: • Park Upgrades:When asked to prioritize potential improvements, community members ranked improving and upgrading existing parks as their top priority. In other questions,they called for additional walking trails, picnic areas, playgrounds,and sport courts. In open-ended responses, community members also asked for additional amenities like covered basketball courts, pickleball courts, disc golf courses,skateparks, and picnic areas. • Walking Trails:The community seeks an expansion of walking trails and the establishment of bike paths,emphasizing the importance of connectivity between parks. Residents also specifically requested better lighting along trails, wheelchair-friendly paths, and pet-friendly trails. • Park Maintenance and Safety:Community members cited maintenance and safety concerns as top reasons why they do not visit more often,and written comments expressed a desire for -'arts & ::-(.:'cI(.mtioiq IVlast(.:'r ::11a i improved maintenance and safety in existing parks.They advocated for additional cleaning and trash removal in parks, repairs to broken equipment, and increased lighting and enforcement of park rules. SL)IRVIEY IIT.::1011 N0II::)U...OGY In close collaboration with City of Woodburn staff, Conservation Technix developed the 16-question survey that was estimated to take less than ten minutes to complete. The mail survey was available in English and Spanish, and the cover letter accompanying the printed survey was written in both languages and included unique OR codes to access each in-language survey online.The City mailed 2,500 surveys to randomly chosen households in Woodburn on March 16, 2023, of which 262 surveys were completed and returned (10.5%response rate, 5%margin of error). Residents who did not receive a mail survey were able to complete the survey online. Online versions of the survey in English,Spanish and Russian were posted to the City's website on March 27th.An additional 256 surveys were completed from the general, community-wide online surveys. In all, 518 surveys were collected,which includes 44 Spanish surveys.The survey was closed on June 3,2023, and the full dataset was compiled and reviewed. Information about the survey was promoted through several channels, including on the City's website, through multiple social media postings, and through direct outreach to partner organizations and recreation program participants. Although households were randomly chosen to receive the mail survey, respondents were not necessarily representative of all city residents. Mail survey responses underrepresent residents under 35 years of age and over-represent residents over the age of 65.See Figure 1 below for age demographics for the mail and online surveys, as well as comparative percentages for Woodburn's population.See page 12 for other demographic subgroup data comparisons.

Woodburn Parks and Recreation Master Plan 2023 1 Fall 2023 Online Open House Summary Page 10 APPENDIX A: GREN-ENDED C'*GMUENTS Below are the unabridged, unedited responses to the open-ended survey questions. Question 3. Are there other improvements you would like to see at existing City parks? 1. Would love to have a move inclusive cultural involvement other than all Spanish festivities and activities. Many other cultures and holidays are being left out. Makes us feel supremely um welcomed in the community you're trying to build. 2. 1 believe that Woodburn has awesome parks. I think that Legion Park is marked off the list, and is a good park(No need for construction) . Cenntanial Park can use better bathroom, but overall I think it's a good park, I go jogging there 2-3 times a week. I do believe that Settlemier Park need the most improvment. I rarley go there, a mijority of the trees need to be cut, and it needs improvment in is playground (Not including the aquatic center) 3. 1 would love to see an upgraded playground at Legion Park, with more things for the kids to play on. Also, a splash pad would be nice to see there as well. 4. At times a little better weed and pest abatement would be nice at Heritage Park. Otherwise our little neighborhood park here in Heritage Park could just use a little play structure upgrade and maybe a picnic table or two for gatherings. Thank you for asking and taking our input. 5. A bike repair center(air refill center) like the one Canby and Tualatin have. 6. Not letting adults drink and maybe having patrol at night I have four countless needles and stuff 7. The restrooms at the parks are dark and unsafe. Not sure exactly what can help change that but it is needed with all the kiddos 8. Improve the baseball fields at centennial!! 9. Turf the infields at centennial baseball fields make them useful and more kids will want to play !! 10. Improve the baseball fields and restroom facilities at Centennial park. Field have so many holes it's dangerous for kids to play. These fields are also used for little kid soccer. Bathrooms at Centennial need updating and maintenance 11. More maintenance of bathrooms 12.Anything at Nelson park. Including parking, better playground, infrastructure, sports area, except Soccer. There is already plenty of soccer fields around Woodburn already. 13. Lighting should be adequate for safety 14. Better maintenance at Burlingham park 15.Accesible playground for children with needs. I was a centennial one time and a little girl was in a wheelchair, she could not go into the playground due to the bark dust. She watched everyone play as she was just in the shelter area. All children should be able to enjoy the park. We as a city should have more disability friendly areas. 16. Keep them clean and free of dangers 17. Better landscaping and more walking paths 18. Wildlife safe/observation areas. We need to protect our wildlife. They are losing their habits due to construction. Woodburn Parks and Recreation Master Plan 2023 1 Fall 2023 Online Open House Summary Page 11 MW 110"Tuffl1a 19. Community garden 20. Community garden! 21. Improve dog park sections at the parks, turf fields at centennial 22. Lighting upgrade and shelter picnic area replacement at Burlingham. 23. Tennis, pickle ball courts. Racquet or hand ball courts. 24. Hermanson park. The pond needs to be revitalized. That area could become a wonderful natural area, with native plantings and effective management of the pond. Right now it's a stagnant pond whose trails are frequently underwater in the rainy months. 25.Yes, our roads going to the parks. 26. The park in the Heritage Park Neighborhood is inadequate and could be improved. 27. Wouldn't it be cool to have a doggy water fountain and their own play yard next to the kiddos?Also consider installing community bathrooms nearby. Thank you for your consideration. 28. 1)Adding Gardens Also need to continue buying land for additional parks even if unable to make improvements at the current time 29. Settlemire Park 30. Is there a way to organize volunteers to regularly pick up litter at the parks? I notice this is an issue in general in Woodburn, lots of litter. Possibly provide recycling receptacles at the parks as well?Also wondering if the picnic shelter ground can be power washed at Centennial Park? It's a nice facility, I think a good spray down would go far! Ideally new or cleaner public restrooms at Centennial Park also. Thank you. 31. Pothole repair on all city streets. 32. Improve safety and clean up (drug paraphernalia) at existing parks. 33. Water park for kids for the summer and more walk trails 34. We need to significantly improve and maintain our baseball fields. While we have made a wonderful and very appreciated effort with our soccer resources, our baseball program is struggling to develop in town, and part of that is due to the condition of the fields. 35. Disc golf course 36. WE NEED COMMUNITY CENTER FOR CLASSES FOR SENIORS, GATHERINGS, CONCERTS ETC WITH USABLE KITCHEN, POSSIBLE POOL 37. Signage about OR State leash laws 38. Sign that say DOGS ON LEASH 39. Brush clearing and better lighting for safety. Too many secluded areas and insufficient lighting. Doesn't matter how much resources are put in place to improve walking paths, shelters, restrooms, playgrounds and sports courts if residents don't feel safe visiting those locations 40.Any improvement related to walking trails. 41. lighting for the evenings, cleanliness, landscaping to make parks look more inviting 42.Access Logs Via Mobile Devices for Facilities that are Subjected to Vandalism to Enable Police Investigations 43. 1 would like to see improvement made at our aquatic centre. 44. Regular cleaning of playground surfaces and pick up of litter in the park Clean splash pad at Centennial park Woodburn Parks and Recreation Master Plan 2023 1 Fall 2023 Online Open House Summary Page 12 Enforce a fine for people who do not pick up their dog's poop A complete revamp of Legion park playground, one slide? Seriously? 45. Fixing broken water pipes and more vegetation 46. More Trees. 47.Just a comment: our goal should be to make all parks equal so that everyone in our community has access to the same amenities. I know that is expensive but it's equitable. 48. More waking trails and green ways! 49. 1 would love to see a nature park like Wilsonville's nature park. There is not a park in Woodburn like it. There is Hermanson Pond but it's not easily accessible due to homes and there is no official public parking. We need paved nature trails on large plots of land and restored habitats. The trails currently are all cut up and split up by busy roads. Woodburn is growing and there are mature trees being cut to make way for homes. 50.There needs to be more cooling gardens. Whatever gets built needs to include shade trees and water features for the 100°+ days. Many people in our town don't have air conditioning and don't know how to swim, which is a danger combination for area rivers. We need safe places to cool off, and honestly, there needs to be a lot more swim lesson spots available, especially free lessons. 51. Let's get a tennis court with some shade in there. Also build some few payphones that are for emergency just in case someone feels unsafe while they are there or on their trail run or walk 52. Please place splash pads farther away from play structures. Also add communication boards and more sensory toys/experiences 53.Wyffels Park desperately needs work 54.Turf fields at centennial. 55. Updates that would allow people with disabilities to access the parks. 56. 1 would like to see bike paths 57. Signage to inform walkers how many laps are a mile in all of our walking trails.For example the new walking trail around Legion Park soccer field. Create a downtown walking trail with signage on mileage etc. 58.The youth sports needs to completely re done before parks 59.You can not place a community center and park upgrades in the same survey, as it's not comparable. People will clearly choose a community center, leaving city parks in their continued poor condition. The 5500+ children in Woodburn need access to shaded parks in their neighborhoods. Families should not need to travel to another city to have access to a park. 60.We can't afford to pay any more taxes. Woodburn is in the top for taxes @ just shy of$20.00 per 1000. We, the tax payers, cannot afford another bond measure.You are simply choking most property owners to death. 61. Updating settlemier park is useless if it doesn't feel safer and less secluded. Bringing less isolation and sunlight would help as well as activity/more people. It could be a great area for a frisbee golf course. Also, broken picnic tables need to be fixed, especially at centennial. 62. Our city needs an accessible park for children with disabilities, such as adaptive swings, wheelchair accessible play areas and swings, and safe soft ground surfaces 63. More turf soccer fields and basketball courts. Centennial baseball and softball fields hardly ever are used. More parking. Woodburn Parks and Recreation Master Plan 2023 1 Fall 2023 Online Open House Summary Page 13 MW 110"Tuffl1a 64. Improvements to the Baseball fields and facilities at Centennial Park, in very bad shape and have been neglected for many years. 65. Basketball courts 66.A senior center for seniors to socialize, have resources, classes, games, meals, etc. 67. Plant more trees and improve the quality of the grass at Senior Estates Park. Most users of the park are older and some of the areas have hidden problems that have been neglected and could lead to injuries if people trip or fall. More trees in the northern area of park might help reduce the soggy soil during rainy seasons. 68.All inclusive parks for our disabled children! 69. Regular Landscape Maintenance 70. More restrooms, drinking fountains on trails if possible, supervised dog parks with little to no gopher holes, covered dog play areas, more handicapped and senior access. 71. Leveling the ground and putting in a water spigot and shade/cover at the dog park(s) 72. 1 would like to see the flower and shrub beds around the city and especially the city buildings trimmed, weeded, and cleaned up. Too many of the city properties are in need of work. Why is the city focused on building more when they cannot keep up with the cleaning, weeding, trimming of the properties and open spaces they now have??? 73. Community Center!!! 74. Consistently good maintenance, taking good care of trees and ensuring security and safety in the parks should be the top priorities. 75. Bike trails 76. Improve the park at Senior Estates. Maintain it. 77. More seating along paths 78. Bigger dog Park 79. Top thing, moveable tables and chairs for eating. Next a few more drinking fountains. Old fashioned ornamental fountains like at the plaza downtown. Old fashioned band shells (covered podiums for musical acts). 80.You need to maintain what you have, especially the Aquatic Center, before making new investments! 81.Another Turf field. Legion Park Turf field gets overcrowded and not enough parking spaces. 82. 1 think every park should have a basketball hoop added somewhere. 83. More trees!!! 84. Expand Hermanson Pond and its walking trails. Create a true park with picnic tables, playgrounds and open grasslands. Question 10. Is there anything else you'd like us to know about parks, trails and programs improvements? 1. Create more programs for all religions would be great 2. 1 think Woodburn has some pretty great parks and we definitely have the need and it seems ability to take the resources we already have and improve the places of nature and beauty as well as recreational and educational use areas even better! Woodburn Parks and Recreation Master Plan 2023 1 Fall 2023 Online Open House Summary Page 14 3. It be great to expand Legion Park or even have the community center in the empty space between Legion and Police Station 4. It would be great to have indoor spaces for basketball and volleyball and fittness 5. For safety of the kids the trail priority should be towards the high school to downtown. We were sad to see all the summer swim lessons fill up this year. It isn't fair that I pay property taxes here and more than half of the families who signed up for swim lessons live OUTSIDE of Woodburn 6. Nope 7. Farmers markets and such 8. Focus on conserving nature so less habitats are lost. 9. Community garden 10. We'd really like a community garden 11. Big celebrations are great already! Having more smaller events would be fun. 12. The classes/sports programs that are offered feel over priced. Especially when you consider that families have multiple children who they would like to enroll 13. Please connect West Woodburn to our beautiful parks and recreation system with a safe path. Apply for grants, ADA compliance enhancement funding, anything out there! I'll help! We know how it's plotted for development already. Land and right of way costs will never be cheaper than now. Let's lock in business/vibrancy attracting connectivity by connecting our parks. Our walking/biking scores are beyond pale but just one vital link away from being exceptional. 14. Please buy land for more parks. 15. Need more attract such as amusement parks. 16.The trimming and removal of dangerous dead trees. Would love to see more community gardens around also. 17.Would like to see a new community center including a senior center. 18. Really hoping for the expansion of Woodburn Aquatic Center! I feel like the city does a great job overall providing a lot of family friendly events. I feel like the parks are nice here and there are many, especially considering the size of Woodburn, so no complaints there. My one critique would be to somehow encourage less littering at the parks. 19. Give maintenance and take care of it.not just built and neglect it. 20.There are so many great ideas here! 21. Heritage park would be better used as covered area for gatherings and maybe a sports court. Not a playground. 22. kEEP THE NEIGHBORHOOD FAMILY UNITED 23. I wish you wouldn't water the designated off-leash dog parks first thing in the morning when people actually would like to use them before it gets too warm. When they are just watered, they are muddy and slippery and dangerous for your dog when they run. If you could water in the middle of the night or late evening, that would be better. Thank you. 24.We should leverage public money where we can obtain multiple good effects on the community. Look for multiple benefits .... combine public safety & health & recreation & livability that is marketable to both residents and visitors 25. Is there anything we can do to improve and clean up our down town area? 26.A bike share program would be awesome. A shaded park for summer Woodburn Parks and Recreation Master Plan 2023 1 Fall 2023 Online Open House Summary Page 15 MW 110"Tuffl1a 27. For a festival, we ought to have a berry festival. Didn't we used to be the berry capitol of the world? 28. Is there any plans Burlington park? 29. Is there any plans Burlington park? 30. Improve swimming lessons, always full, never any teachers, pool manager doesn't return calls or is never there. Youth sports registration closes way too early and we have never been able to get into a sport because you ended registration for a sport in November. We are not thinking about a sport in august that's in November. It's ridiculous. We don't even use the parks or programs here because it's so chaotic and you can't even get ahold of any one, or get into anything unless it's 3-4 months in advance. This is why lots of kids in this community lose out on youth sports/swimming in this community. Money need to go to this. Ymca run is too expensive and not run very well. I miss my small town park and rec department without big ymca. Why do we have money for these giant parks and trails but not money for actually getting the youth involved in organized sports??? 31. 1 think it's important to consider your audience; who is completing your survey as the survey response may not include what is best for the community. I hope you consider your most vulnerable population and consider their need for parks, access to parks, and what parks can provide, such as access to physical movement. Especially, considering the many apartment complex's and children/adult lack of physical movement. Exposure to green space and nature is known to have positive impact on physical and mental health. We also know that the most vulnerable families in Woodburn currently don't have access to a neighborhood park. I hope you are able to see current park locations and make up of residents in those areas as well as access to current parks before making informed decisions. 32. Woodburn basically only has one safe and usable play structure currently which is centennial and it's very disappointing and boring to have so few options. 33. More trees in the parks and maintain cleans more trails for the people, for walking specially lights for the nigh . 34. Make sure they are wheelchair accessible 35. Would like to see pickleball courts with nets and lighting for night play as well. 36. It would be nice to have other activities other then Mexican heritage activities. Something Anglo folks would be interested 37. More adult activity trips. In the past we've been to places like Crater Lake, Tillamook County Museum, Lincoln city outlets, and my favorite was a balloon ride. It's understandable that these trips stopped during the covid shutdown for safety. But hope the city will sponsor more of these adult day trips year round. I also miss the "Out and About"flyers that came in the mail. 38. We need a bigger& better Farmers Market, that isn't hosted by a religious school 39.Yes. The four new PICKLEBALL COURTS are fantastic. Congratulations on serving the players who had no place to play between Wilsonville and Salem. 40. We need inclusive parks for the disabled! 41. I'm thankful for what we currently have but with all the new housing going on we will definitely need more parks, trails & programs. 42. Would really like an indoor place to walk in bad weather. Seniors need to keep active. What happened to the plans for the aquatic center?Was going to have walking area, meals on wheels etc. 43. Increased placement of garbage cans and doggie bags (recycling options as well) may help decrease litter. Woodburn Parks and Recreation Master Plan 2023 1 Fall 2023 Online Open House Summary Page 16 44.trim the shrubs , mow the grass, pull the weeds, clean up the garbage surrounding the parks 45. Consistently good park maintenance, including taking care of trees, and ensuring security and safety in the parks should be the top priorities. 46. 1 will be honest, I have not been to the 4th of July celebration here in Woodburn in a long time. I think last time I went there was a stage set up on Centennial park. I've been to other places for 4th of July, such as Independence, OR, and Longview, WA. I like how they have vendors selling all sorts of things in the locations in which they will have the fireworks show, making it an all day event that leads to the fireworks show. 47. Would like to see a full gym facility to partner with the pool. Pool needs upgraded locker room facilities. 48. Bathrooms of some sort along walking trails. 49. Please don't let new growth on the edge of Woodburn take all the land without new parks and shortcut trails (trails not in parks, that go past or behind private land and between streets.) An empty field as a city park is better than no park at all. 50. 1 Support the community center idea and the trail loop to attract people to Woodburn -A complete loop for walking, cycling and nature watching with restrooms. 51. Create a town that its current residents want to continue living in. Make it safe to walk, shop and use its park systems anytime during the day and evening. Stop building low income housing and selling or granting land for that purpose. Expand and create more wildlife sanctuaries with connecting walking trails. Strive to create a Woodburn that is both clean and beautiful that its residents enjoy its wealth of beauty and are proud to live in. There's currently enough strip malls, thrift shops, drug houses, etc. There isn't enough good dining options, quality small businesses and places to take a stroll and see the wildlife that is still prevalent. Living together with indigenous wildlife with open green spaces throughout the town will begin to disappear if care isn't taken. 52. Mas iluminacion en parques para poder caminar con seguridad (Translation: More lighting in parks to be able to walk safely).

M N I x STAKEHOLDER DISCUSSION SUMMARY Project Name: Woodburn Parks&Recreation Master Plan Project No.: Proj-#22-148PLN Location: Microsoft Teams Interview Date: May 24,2023 Time: 11:30am Notes by: Steve Duh Participants: Jenne Marquez Randi Garcia Cruz Karen Linton Emily Duran,City of Woodburn Becki Hayes Brian Powers,City of Woodburn Dylan Wells Steve Duh,Conservation Technix Subject: Parks&Recreation Master Plan:Stakeholder Discussion PURPOSE To discuss current issues, opportunities and needs for city park and recreation amenities.The discussion occurred on March 24, 2023,virtually via Microsoft Teams. DISCUSSION The discussion began with a brief introduction and an overview of the city's Park&Recreation Master Plan process. A set of questions were used to initiate the discussion and explore ideas about system planning and local recreation needs. General Comments&Values about Woodburn's City Park System • Love the city! • Need more greenery around seniors complex • Add more trails and splash pad (a 2nd, other than Centennial Park) • Make it equitable—provide spaces for everyone to access • Link pedestrians with trails • Very important to maintain existing parks, even small areas OK like a bench with greenery • As it expands,there are less trees; senior area near 1-5 feels separated from the rest of city • Older areas and newer have no greenery, no sidewalks; walkability is important • City does well bring all the cultures together to celebrate What's Missing or Needs to be Improved? • Overuse at new Legions Park field. Consider adding more fields • Re-vamp Centennial Park for multi-use turf,what does maintenance/use look like if we can add tournaments Interview Notes 1 June 1,2023 MW 10" I ffl1a Interview Notes (continued) • Soccer tournament concept—field maintenance is horrible; recruiting for a tournament was dead-ended due to poor field condition. Poor maintenance means Woodburn is missing out on revenue. Drainage is poor at Centennial;field pools when it rains. Grants are great, but need operations and maintenance money for consistent maintenance • Return on investment—invest in our city; keep the money in the community through improvements to parks like Legion. Look at Wilsonville as an example.Tourism potential—hotels,gas,snacks, etc. • Community center rebuild, market to public what the improvements are. Project has been quiet for a while • Aquatic center—kiddie pool and locker room are out of shape.

Such an effort would not only enhance community engagement but also serve as a wonderful means of connecting neighborhoods. Enhancements to Recreational Facilities 1. Picnic Shelters: The community has strongly requested additional picnic shelters in various parks,as they would provide residents with more comfortable space for outdoor gatherings. 2. Walking Trails with resting Areas: Expanding walking trails and ensuring the presence of resting areas with shade would encourage more outdoor activities,even on sunny days. 3. Park Expansion:Community members would like to expand walking trails, include bicycle racks,and add more playground activities such as a splash pad, mechanical chime, and spring rider for kids.These enhancements would enrich the experience for children and also involve expanding the parking area. 4. Amenities: The community has requested renovated and well-maintained restrooms across all parks. Additionally,there is a desire to make water fountains more accessible throughout the parks and consider replacements where necessary. Aquatic Center Improvements The expansion of the Aquatic Center is essential, especially considering the expanding population in Woodburn.The current pool size is inadequate to accommodate various activities and gatherings.Therefore, it is necessary to expand the building,the pool itself,as well as the changing areas and washing facilities. Additionally,ensuring adequate staffing is crucial, as the center frequently MR 0"Tu ffl1a experiences uderstaffing issues. Furthermore, installing a prominent sign to guide both the community and visitors to the Aquatic Center's location is recommended. Outdoor Facilities and Accessibility 1. Outdoor Splash Pads: Integrating outdoor splash pads in every park would provide a playful water feature for people of all ages. Many parks in other cities in Oregon already have splash pads. Numerous community members have mentioned traveling to these parks for this specific reason. Implementing spash pads in various parks throughout Woodburn would cater to this demand. 2. Multi-Sport Courts: Addressing the high demand for basketball courts,tennis courts, soccer fields,and baseball fields is vital. Ensuring that each park has multi-sport courts would help meet this demand. Many community members have noticed that the addition of multi-sport courts in Legion Park has encouraged more community members to spend time playing basketball, tennis,and badminton. Many believe that implementing these multi-sport courts in other parks around Woodburn is necessary. 3. Water Access:The community members have mentioned many water fountains in the parks do not work or are old.The parks need to upgrade and provide more water fountains as parks are improved more community members will visit the park and the demand now and in the future for water access will increase. Community Engagement Due to the influx of families resulting from new housing developments,outdoor recreation facilities should prioritize meeting their needs.This involves integrating outdoor exercise equipment, coordinating community events, and creating playgrounds and park activities for all age groups.To ensure effective communication,the City should disseminate updates and news not only online but also through physical locations like stores, parks, libraries, and other places frequently visited by individuals who might not be as comfortable with technology. Legion Park and Recreational Activities The community has shown keen interest in the expansion of current parks,with a specific focus on Legion Park. Given its strategic location near downtown,which draws numerous visitors, it is recommended to enhance the walking trail within Legion Park. Moreover, expanding the park's parking space ranks high on the priority list. Overall The community has expressed a desire for more courts and fields,encompassing basketball,tennis,soccer,and baseball. Providing clear and easily accessible information about joining leagues for both kids and adults is essential to encourage community involvement. Although Legion Park has undergone remodeling,the community feels that there is still room for further improvements to enhance the fun and gathering experience for all park attendees. The addition of water stations in parks, increased shading along walking trails,the installation of benches and playgrounds,and the incorporation of outdoor fitness equipment would significantly elevate the overall park experience. CM- �IIII-I,��\ � iww Review of Past Community Plains Past community plans and other relevant documents were reviewed for policy direction and goals as they pertain to the provision and planning for parks, trails and recreation opportunities in Woodburn. The development of each involved public input and adoption Iby their respective responsible legislative Ibody. Woodburn Comprehensive Plan, 2022 Most recently amended in June 2022„ the Comprehensive Plan for the City of Woodburn is the controlling land use document that provides the framework and vision for implementing the City's goals and future land uses. The Woodburn Comprehensive Plan is documented in two volumes. Volume I includes goals and ocflicies with specific directic)n fc)r Iand use decisicms. Vcflurne I a1 c:) includes the cc)rnlorehensive lolan majo that must conform to the stated goals and policies. Volume 11 includes the background information that served as the foundation for the goals and policies adopted Iby the City. The Plan states in intent of the City to provide adequate parks, recreation facilities, and open space to maintain Woodburn's livability and managed growth, and tc) orc)vide sc)cial, ecc)nc)rnic and envircmirriental benefits tc) individuals, Families and the cc)rnrnunity. I ibrary Park, the Downtown Plaza, Woodburn Aquatic Center, Settlemier Park, the Woodburn World's Berry Center Museum, and I ocomotive Park are intended to Ibe used as catalysts for downtown revitalization. To meet the goals for their parks and recreation system, the Plan articulates policies for acquisition and development of adequate parkland for neighborhood parks, trails and open spaces. Parks system development charges and coordination with development review processes are policies to help ensure the park system can keep up with population growth. The City established a one-third mile walkability target for residents to have easy access to parks, trails, and indoor facilities. The implementation of the Mill Creek Greenway Master Plan and the provision of a continuous public greenway and pathway system is another policy within the Comprehensive Plan, The Plan also establishes the policy for adequate maintenance of the park system with the determination of maintenance level of service standards and adequate annual Ibudgets to meet those established service levels. Woodburn 'Transportation System Plan, 2019 The Transportation System Plan (TSP) for the City of Woodburn serves as the Transportation element of the City's Comprehensive Plan sets the vision for the transportation facilities and services needed to accommodate future growth and development. The TSP 2019 update provides a list of projects to address 1(::)cal transloc)rtatic)n needs and deficiencies. I lie I Sl::' set the gc)aIs fc)r rnultirricAal rncfloility tc) orc)vide a multimodal transportation system that avoids or reduces a reliance on one form of transportation and minimizes energy consumption and air quality impacts. The goal incorporates objectives to develop a network of Ibike lanes and routes as well as sidewalks and off-street pathways that improve Ibicycle and pedestrian mobility within neighborhoods and link residential areas to schools, parks, commercial areas, and employment centers. Safety and connectivity are also overarching goals within the TSP. For multi-use paths and trails the I Sl::' recc)rnirriends a minirriurn width c)f 10 feet fc)r 1(::)w pedestrian/loicycle traffic cc)ntexts and 12 tc) 20 feet in area with mc)derate tc) high levels c)f loicycle and pedestrian traffic.

I lie I Sl::' orc)jects include a city wide wayffinding signage system tc) suloloc)rt Dike i-cwtes, multi-use paths, parks, schools and other essential destinations. Highway 99E Corridor Plan, 2012 The Highway 99E Corridor Plan was developed for the transportation corridor that runs through the eastern edge of the City of Woodburn. The purpose of the Plan was to facilitate revitalization of the corridor aas a business district addressing economic development, motor vehicle mobility & safety, pedestrian & Ibicycle access & safety, property access, aesthetics and neighborhood connections. The Highway 99E Corridor Plan identifies needed transIoc::)rtati(::)n irTilorc:wernents, recc::)rnrnends alolorc::)Ioriate Iand uses, and illustrates the urban design vision for the section of Highway 99E running through the City of Woodburn. Implementation measures include amending the City's Transportation System Plan (TSP), Comprehensive Plan, and Development Code to implement the land use, urban design, access management, and transportation improvements associated with the Corridor Plan. The corridor plan centers on a mixed use village concept intended to provide an activity node on Highway 99E and a sense of connection to Downtown Woodburn. Over time, redevelopment would result in a more walkable safe streetscape with connections to adjacent neighborhoods. The Plan includes an access management plan to Ibe implemented incrementally to improve traffic safety fc::)i, rnc::)tc::)rists, loicyclists and pedestrians. Mill Creek Greenway aster Plan, 2007 The National Park Service's (NPS) Rivers, Trails & Conservation (RTC, ) agreed to provide staff assistance to help draft a master plan for the Mill Creek corridor and tributaries. Together with a 1 5-member Task Force, NPS and city staff conducted the master planning process to create system-wide recommendations for trail design standards, alignirrients, and imlorc::)vernents orc::)Ioc::)sed fc::)i- the five different planning units 1(::)cated al(::)ilg the Greenway. The establishment of a Mill Creek Greenway and Trail system has Ibeen a goal of the City since the 1960's when the City began acquiring and setting aside properties along Mill Creek. The Master Plan provides recommendations for trail routes, transition nodes, support facilities such as restrooms, trailheads, benches, and signage. The master plan also provided a six-year plan for project implementation along sections currently owned Iby the City. Woodburn Parks and Recreation IMaster Plan Update, 2009 The 2009 Woodburn Parks and Recreation Master Plan Update evaluated existing parks and recreation facilities and provided direction for enhancing the park and recreation system to manage existing and future cc::)rnrnunity needs. I lie tc::)Io three maintenance io rk:)ri ties identified during the planning update were restrooms, trash pickup, and amenities care. The top overall park and recreation priorities to Ibe addressed included increasing youth programs, improving existing parks and facilities, improving security, and increasing cc::)rnrnunicati(::)ns c::)n services and orc::)grarns. Recc::)rTirTiendati(::)ns firc::)rn the 2009 1::IIMI::' update identified the need to create a master plan for Burlingham Park, update playground equipment throughout the park system, continue to develop parks according to established master plans and improve walkability to parks and recreation facilities and to the community as a whole. The PIMP also provided a ten-year list of recommended capital projects with proposed implementation timing and estimated costs.

Examining current recreation trends may inform potential park and recreation improvements and opportunities to enhance programs and services. 2023 N RPA Agency Peirforma ince Review In the 2023 National Recreation and Parks Association (NRPA) Agency Performance Review and its accompanying Park Metrics share comprehensive park and recreation-related data collected and analyzed to inform park and recreation professionals and key stakeholders about the state of the industry. The 2023 NRPA Agency Performance Review presents data from more than 1,000 unique park and recreation agencies across the United States as reported between 2020 and 2022. These resources provide guidance to inform decisions and demonstrate the full breadth of service offerings and responsibilities of park and recreation agencies throughout the United States. This data can offer a perspective for Sammamish Parks and Recreation to compare their service provision to other agencies across the country. However, every park & rec agency has its own unique characteristics, combination of responsibilities and community composition. This comparison of nationwide data with the City of Sammamish can provide guiding insights rather than target benchmarks. I lie agency oerfc::)rrnance reloc::)rt indicated recent trends in staffing and vc::)Iunteers R::)ir joark and recreatk:)n agencies show that numbers of authorized full-time positions has steadily rebounded since 2011. Key Findings & Characteristics Park facilities and operations vary greatly across the nation. The typical agency participating in the NRPA park metric survey serves a jurisdiction of approximately 45,000 people, Ibut population size varies widely across all responding jurisdictions. The typical park and recreation agency has jurisdiction over 22 parks comprising over 571 acres. When including non-park sites (such as city halls and roadway medians), the median management scale for park agencies increases to 30 sites encompassing 676 acres. Park facilities also have a range of service levels in terms of acres of parkland per population and residents per park. These metrics are categorized Iby the agency's population size.

I ocal schools are shown as the most common partner (59.6%) for all facility types. Youth-serving organizations (Ys, JCC, Boys & Girls Clubs) and park and recreation organizations were the most likely to report that they had partnered with outside organizations, at 98% and 94% respectively. Revenue Outlook The year 2020 represented a dramatic departure from the norm, with nearly two-thirds (64.9%) of respondents indicating that their revenues for the year were lower than the previous year. By 2021, the number reporting a drop in revenue fell to 26.7%—still a dramatically different result from most survey years, Ibut an obvious improvement over 2020. At the same time, while only 13.4% of respondents saw their revenues increase in 2020, Iby 2021, more than half (51.7%) were reporting revenues on the rise again. Respondents were much more optimistic about 2022 and 2023, with 60% indicating they expect to see higher revenues in Iboth years. At the same time, 9.8% still expect revenues to fall in 2022. Facilities & Improvements A majority of park respondents (43%) reported plans to add features at their facilities and were also the most likely to Ike planning to construct new facilities in the next few years (39%). The top 10 planned features for all facility types include: 'I. S[D�ash [Day areas (21.4% of reS[Dondents wuth [Dans to add features are [D�annung to add SpaSh [Day) 2.

With VID-1 9s impact on the wane, we asked respondents to tell us about their top goals for their facilities in the coming year. The most common responses centered around increasing participation and membership, as well as building and renovating facilities. Recruiting and training staff, as well as just "getting Iback to normal" also made up a large number of the responses. 2023 Outdoor Participation Report According to 2023 Outdoor Participation Trends Report, published Iby the Outdoor Foundation in Boulder, Colorado, the outdoor recreation participant Ibase grew 2.3% in 2022 to a record 168.1 million Americans (55%) ages 6 and older. The number of outdoor participants has grown over the last eight years, however, the numb c)f cwtings per participant declined in 2022 fc)r the first time since the loandernic Degan in 2020. Key Insights include the following: Diversity The recreational participant Ibase is much more diverse than ever Ibefore. New and young outdoor participants are significantly mc)re diverse than the current c)utdc)c)r loose and are accelerating quickly. 117e participation rate for Hispanic people has increased from 34% in 2015 to 56% in 2022. Seniors A significantly higher percentage c)f senic)rs (ages 55 1-) are participating in c)utdc)c)r recreaticm. In 2022, the senior participation rate hit a record high of 35% and rising. This equates to 1 in every 5 outdoor participants and a total of 1 million new participants in 2022. Gateway Activities & Growth 'Trends Gateway activities, cme c)( the first c)utdc)c)r recreatic)n activities oec)lole participate in at any age, serve as magnets to outdoor activity and commonly lead to more activity in niche categories like backpacking and M110"NeIrla adventure racing. Gateway activities continue to drive new entrant outings and frequency of participation. I liking is the mc)st joc)joular activity. Running, bicycling, Fishing and carrijoing rcwnd cwt the tc)jo five. Running has the highest average outings per runner at In 54 per year. Camping has the highest growth rate over the past three years at 29.1% per year. The outdoor activity categories with the highest growth rates among kids included Ibackp acking, snowshoeing, canoeing, climbing, and off-road triathlon. Participation Rate Decline The frequency of participation is declining across outdoor recreation. In 2013, the average number of outings per participant was 84.6. Over the last ten years, average number of outings has dropped to 71.8 per participant. Demographics are changing quickly in the U.S. population, and the outdoor recreation market has lagged behind. Park and recreation agencies are recognizing the need for increased diversity in the participant Ibase c)f joark and recreatic)n users. I lie new and ycwng c)utdc)c)r participant bases are significantly -nc)re diverse than the total participant Ibase, a formula for long-term growth in diversity for outdoor recreation. Monitoring progress on diversity is key to understanding if outreach is Ibeing effective. 2023 Sports, Filtiness & Leisure ActivillfilesTophune Participation Report Prepared Iby a partnership of the Sports and Fitness Industry Association (SFIA) and the Physical Activity Ccwncil (IFIAC), this ::::�eloruary 2023 joarticiloatic)n rejoc)rt summarizes levels c)f activity and identifies key trends in sjoc)rts, fitness, and recreatic)n in the US. I lie rejoc)rt is based cm c)ver 18,000 cm1ine interviews c)f a natic)nwide sample that provides a high degree of statistical accuracy using strict quotas for gender, age, income, region, and ethnicity. The study looked at more than 124 different team and individual sports and outdoor activities, including a section dedicated to the impact of VID-1 9 on participation results. Compared to 2017, activity increased Iby 9.2% in total participation rates. Activity in the U.S. continues to increase fc)r the Fifth cc)nsecutive year. In 2022, 77.6% c)f all Arnericans, c)ir 236.9 rnillic)n joec)jole participated in at least one activity during the 2022 calendar year.

As part of developing the SCORP, the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department (OPRD) conducted a statewide survey of Oregon residents regarding their 2017 outdoor recreation participation in Oregon, as well as their opinions about park and recreation management. This data can help local park and recreation providers Ibetter understand public opinions and the preferences of outdoor recreation participants. 1:::::ifty six(56) recreaticm activities were identified as irriloc)rtaint recreaticm activity tyloes. I hese activities were grouped into eight (8) categories including Non-motorized Trail or Related Activities, Motorized Activities, Non-motorized Snow Activities, Outdoor I eisure and Sporting Activities, Nature Study Activities, Vehicle- �based Camping Activities, Hunting and Fishing Activities, and Non-motorized Water-based and Beach 10" Activities. The top three activities with the largest annual user occasions include Walking ori local streets / sidewalks (313 million); Walking ori local trails / paths (113 million); and Dog walking l going to dog parks off-leash areas (78 million).

Outdoor recreation participants were asked what their local parks and recreation agency could do to improve/increase participation and value. Across the state, providing more free-of-charge recreation opportunities was the most important action, with ensuring clean and well-maintained parks and facilities, and developing walking / hiking trails closer to home also high in importance. OPIRD also conducted a statewide survey of Oregon public recreation providers to determine outdoor recreation funding priorities for OPIRD grant programs and identify top management issues and challenges faced by public recreation providers. The survey showed that across the state within urban growth boundaries, the most important funding need was for community trail systems; restrooms; children's playgrounds and play areas built with manufactured structures like swing sets, slides, and climbing apparatuses; picnic areas and shelters for small visitor groups; trails connected to public lands; and picnicking/day use and facilities. In rural areas across the state, the most important funding need was for nestrooms, RV/trailer campgrounds and facilities, day-use hiking trails, connecting trails into large trail systems, interpretive displays, and tent campgrounds and facilities (car camping). Creating new park and recreation facilities was the greatest maintenance/management challenge for urban and urban growth areas. Other pressing issues were maintaining existing local parks in the community, addressing Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) issues, and providing safe walking and biking routes to parks and trails. More rural, dispersed setting park providers faced challenges maintaining existing park and recreation facilities. Adequate funding was lacking by most park and recreation providers for renovation, rehabilitation; updating facilities for universal access (ADA compliance); growing homeless population pressures, responding to new recreation trends and technology. In many cases, park and recreation providers were concerned that inadequate funding would increase safety and security issues associated with public use ofpark and recreation facilities and services.

The survey of 1,000 American adults looks at frequency and drivers of parks/recreation facilities visits and the barriers to that prevent greater enjoyment.

Orie-huridred million people do not live within a walkable distarice of at least orae park or recreation facility. Further, many survey resporiderits indicate they have felt unwelcome at a park or recreation facility or say the infrastructure and programming are not inclusive. Parks and recreation is for everyone — regardless of age, income, race, ethnicity, ability, gerider identity or sexual orientation. Professionals, advocates and political leaders have the opportunity to riarrow any accessibility or iriclusivity gaps through greater community engagement and addressing inequitable funding and infrastructure investments that have deprived millions of people of access to parks and recreation." Outdoor Recreation Economy In November 2022, the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) released its annual report ori the economic impact of the outdoor recreation industry at national and state levels. The gross economic output for the outdoor recreation economy was $862 billion in 2021, accounting for 1.9% of the gross domestic product that year. Outdoor recreation economic activity showed ari 18.95% increase from 2020 while the overall U.S. ecc::)nc::)rny c::)nly saw a 5.9% increase. l::Iec::)joIe Finding ernjok:)yrnent in the c::)utdc::)c::)r recreatk:)n industry increased �by 13.1% from 2020 to a total of 4.5 million people. The research group Headwaters Economics, in collaboration with the State Outdoor Recreation Business Alliance, published a report in 2021 ori the state of the outdoor recreation economy nationally. The outdoor recreation industry employed nearly 5.2 million people in the U.S. in 2019 and contributed $459.8 billion to the economy. The report emphasizes that investments in outdoor recreation directly result in visitor spending that supports jobs, busiriesses, and industries across the country. Inclusion & Universal Access Across the country, local municipalities and park and recreation providers with older public infrastructure have been upgrading their facilities to comply with the outdoor recreation guidelines for universal access and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). The removal of existing architectural Ibarriers in park facilities has Ibeern ongoing and should continue until renovations, upgrades and newer construction provide Ibarrier-free access to all users. Access and inclusion in public parks extends Ibeyond the physical amenities and incorporates cc::)nsideratk:)ns c::)f anguage, tedhnc::)k:)gy, wayffinding, jorc::)grarn equity and equitable gec::)grajohic distributk:)n (::)f facilities. Park and recreation agencies are in a unique position to champion efforts that advance diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI). By assuring representation of diverse life experiences and voices, park and recreation orc::)fessi(::)naIs will better reflect the cc::)rn rn u n i ties their agencies serve. Inequity is the ultimate challenge Facing the nation, and parks and recreation can make a profound difference.

LA-23-04 Planning Commission Staff Report Attachment 102: Comprehensive Plan Goal and Policy updates Page 2 of 2 Exhibit C II iretirOducdOire The Woodburn Development Ordinance (WDO) does not include specific approval criteria for legislative amendments, beyond initiation per WDO 4.01.09, processing, and notification requirements. However, per state law, amendments to a Comprehensive Plan, including the adoption of implementing documents such as a Parks & Recreation Master Plan (PRMP), are required to be consistent with: • Statewide Planning Goals • Oregon Administrative Rules (OAR) • Woodburn Comprehensive Plan goals and policies The findings for adoption of the PRMP and associated Comprehensive Plan amendments address these same criteria. The present version of the Comprehensive Plan was last amended through Legislative Amendment LA 23-02 as Ordinance No. 2619 on January 10, 2024 (goals and policies relating to an Economic Opportunities Analysis). Statewide Planning Goals There are a total of 19 Statewide Planning Goals. Staff finds Goals 1, 2, and 8 are applicable Statewide Planning Goals to the adoption of the PRMP and identified updates to the Woodburn Comprehensive Plan goals and policies. The PRMP does not contain regulations that pertain to these goals and is not proposing changes to existing associated regulations. Applicable goals include Goal 1 (Citizen Involvement), Goal 2 (Land Use Planning), and Goal 8 (Recreational Needs). Of these, Goal 8, titled Recreational Needs, is the primary goal of consideration in review of this proposal.The fundamental purpose of Goal 8 is to ensure that a local government plans for the recreational needs of its residents.This proposal is for the adoption of the Parks & Recreation Master Plan (PRMP), which contains information pertaining to Goal 8 and for findings in support of adoption. Rules that implement Goal 8 are described in Chapter 660, Division 34 of the Oregon Administrative Rules (OAR). Local government park plans are specifically mentioned in OAR 660-034-0040. The proposed PRMP was produced to meet the requirements of Goal 8 and all implementing administrative rules. The PRMP provides a factual basis for updating Woodburn Comprehensive Plan Section L(Parks and Recreation). The City of Woodburn created these existing policies in concert with the adoption of the previous PRMP. The proposed amendments include new and modified policies for the City to support a robust system of parks and recreational offerings. LA-23-04 Planning Commission Staff Report Attachment 101: Analyses& Findings Page 1 of 7 Exhibit C Goal 1 --- Qdzen Involvement Statewide Planning Goal 1 requires cities to involve community members in planning processes and decisions. The City and its consultants have done this in a variety of ways as part of the planning process. - Surveys.The City distributed a random-sample mail survey and an online community- wide survey in English, Spanish, and Russian. - Advisory Group. The Woodburn Recreation and Parks Board functioned as a technical advisory group (TAG) for the PRMP. The committee met three times to review materials and provide direction at key milestones. - Public Forums. The City hosted two open house meetings (May 31 and September 15, 2023) and conducted a series of tabling activities at various community events between July and September 2023. - Planning Commission and City Council Meetings. Staff provided for public meetings before the Planning Commission and City Council to present information. The City followed State and Local public notice procedures to inform members of the public about these meetings. - Notification to the Department of Land Conservation and Development (DLCD). Staff provided notice to DLCD of the proposed Comprehensive Plan amendments on December 18, 2023, in compliance with OAR 660-018-0020 and notified affected government agencies in conformance with WDO 4.01.14D. - Online Access to Draft Materials. Staff made draft copies of the PRMP and proposed Comprehensive Plan Goal and Policy changes available on the City's website for public review and comment on January 18, 2024. Based on the above findings, the PRMP is consistent with Statewide Planning Goal 1. Goal 2 --- Lard Use Planning Goal 2 requires each local government in Oregon to establish a land use planning process and policy framework as a basis for all decisions and actions related to use of land and to assure an adequate factual base for such decisions and actions. Goal 2 also includes requirements for coordination with other jurisdictions and government agencies, requires that plans include implementation measures, and that plans be reviewed periodically and amended as needed. The City last updated and adopted its Parks & Recreation Master Plan (PRMP) via Ordinance No. 2458 on July 15, 2009. To ensure that the City has an accurate understanding of the community's recreation interests and needs, the City Council initiated a Type V legislative process to update the City's PRMP and consider correlating updates to the Comprehensive Plan Goals and Policies. The City appointed the Recreation and Parks Board as the technical advisory group (TAG) for the preparation of a new PRMP. The committee met three times to review materials and provide direction at key milestones. One purpose of the committee meetings was to ensure that there LA-23-04 Planning Commission Staff Report Attachment 101: Analyses& Findings Page 2 of 7 Exhibit C was a forum for affected government agencies to express concerns with proposed updates to the plan and provide the City with the opportunity to consider and accommodate modifications to the plan during the preparation phase of work. These meetings also provided a venue for coordination discussions with Marion County staff as needed. The proposed PRMP is now being reviewed for adoption under the City's Type V legislative procedure as outlined in the Woodburn Development Ordinance. That procedure includes the City undertaking the following steps, which includes additional opportunities for review and comment by citizens and affected governmental units: - The City notified affected government agencies in conformance with WDO 4.01.14.D. on January 5, 2024, and published notice of both the Planning Commission and City Council hearings in the Woodburn Independent newspaper on January 17, 2024. - Project update presentations to Planning Commission on December 14, 2023, and City Council on September 25, 2023; - The Planning Commission hearing scheduled for January 25, 2024; - The City Council hearing is tentatively scheduled for February 12, 2024; - On December 18, 2023, staff sent a Post-Acknowledgement Plan Amendment (PAPA) to the Department of Land Conversation and Development (DLCD) in compliance with OAR 660-018-0020. Based on the above findings, the PRMP is consistent with Statewide Planning Goal 2. Goal 8 --- Recreational Needs Goal 8 requires the City to plan for the recreation needs of our residents and visitors. The goal prioritizes non-motorized forms of recreation, and recreation areas that serve high-density populations with limited transportation options and limited financial resources. It also places priority on recreation areas that are free or available at a low cost to the public. The draft Parks & Recreation Master Plan (PRMP) being considered does exactly what Goal 8 requires. This plan details a profile of the community today, including demographics and interests of residents; it inventories the existing parkland, trail network, and recreational programming that the City offers; it outlines a series of goals and objectives for the City to work towards; and provides an implementation and investment plan for the City Council to consider. The PRMP and Comprehensive Plan update are consistent with Oregon Statewide Planning Goal 8. iregoire Adimiireistiradve Rules Oregon Administrative Rules (OAR) 660-034-0040 guide planning efforts for local parks in Oregon. The following is a summary of consistency with those rules. (1) Local park providers may prepare local park master plans, and local governments may amend acknowledged comprehensive plans and zoning ordinances pursuant to the LA-23-04 Planning Commission Staff Report Attachment 101: Analyses& Findings Page 3 of 7 Exhibit C requirements and procedures of ORS 197.610 to 197.625 in order to implement such local park plans. Local governments are not required to adopt a local park master plan in order to approve a land use decision allowing parks or park uses on agricultural lands under provisions of ORS 215.213 or 215.283 or on forestlands under provisions of OAR 660-006- 0025(4), as further addressed in sections (3) and(4) of this rule. If a local government decides to adopt a local park plan as part of the local comprehensive plan, the adoption shall include: (a)A plan map designation, as necessary, to indicate the location and boundaries of the local park, and (b)Appropriate zoning categories and map designations (a "local park"zone or overlay zone is recommended), including objective land use and siting review criteria, in order to authorize the existing and planned park uses described in local park master plan. Response: The City has prepared this Parks and Recreation Master Plan (PRMP) to guide local park planning in Woodburn. Adoption of the PRMP is proposed as part of an amendment to the comprehensive plan. As required by subsection (a), local park boundaries are illustrated throughout Chapters 4-6 of the PRMP. The Comprehensive Plan Map already includes a land use category titled "Open Space and Parks" and the Zoning Map already contains an associated zoning district titled "Public/Semi-Public".The Woodburn Development Ordinance, the implementing ordinance for the comprehensive plan, already outlines land use and siting review criteria for the Public/Semi-Public zoning district. No changes are proposed to this land use category or zoning district. (2) Unless the context requires otherwise, this rule does not require changes to: (a) Local park plans that were adopted as part of an acknowledged local land use plan prior to July 15, 1998, or (b) Lawful uses in existence within local parks on July 15, 1998. Response: The City last updated and adopted its Parks & Recreation Master Plan (PRMP) via Ordinance No. 2458 on July 15, 2009. (3)All uses allowed under Statewide Planning Goal 3 are allowed on agricultural land within a local park and all uses allowed under Statewide Planning Goal 4 are allowed on forest land within a local park, in accordance with applicable laws, statewide goals, and rules. Response: The proposed Parks & Recreation Master Plan (PRMP) does not involve any agricultural lands or uses, nor any forest lands or uses, within local parks. Goals 3 and 4 are addressed by counties. (4)Although some of the uses listed in OAR 660-034-0035(2)(a) to (g) are not allowed on agricultural or forest land without an exception to Goal 3 or Goal 4, a local government is not required to take an exception to Goals 3 or 4 to allow such uses on land within a local LA-23-04 Planning Commission Staff Report Attachment 101: Analyses& Findings Page 4 of 7 Exhibit C park provided such uses, alone or in combination, meet all other statewide goals and are described and authorized in a local park master plan that: (a) Is adopted as part of the local comprehensive plan in conformance with Section (1) of this rule and consistent with all statewide goals, (b) Is prepared and adopted applying criteria comparable to those required for uses in state parks under OAR chapter 736, division 18, and (c) Includes findings demonstrating compliance with ORS 215.296 for all uses and activities proposed on or adjacent to land zoned for farm or forest use. Response: The proposed Parks & Recreation Master Plan (PRMP) does not involve any agricultural lands or uses, nor any forest lands or uses, within local parks. Goals 3 and 4 are addressed by counties. Conclusion: The PRMP is consistent with the OAR requirements for preparation of a local parks plan. Consistency wit[i Woodburn Coimlpirelhens�ve Plan Goals and Policies The City's Comprehensive Plan already contains goals and policies that help the City achieve its recreation and park planning objectives.These existing goals and policies, which center around providing a variety of benefits to the community through a diverse offering of recreational spaces and programs, provide a strong policy basis and framework to support adoption of the PRMP. As part of this legislative amendment, only minor amendments are proposed to Section L of the Comprehensive Plan. Generally, the amendments cover name changes for certain facilities and focus on making goals and policies more concise. Two new policies are recommended —one to more directly refer to the PRMP as a guiding document for recreation planning, and one stating it is the City's policy to ensure facilities are inclusive and accessible. Conformance w i [i l7 e Woodburn Development ir&n a ire ce 4.01 Decision-Making Procedures 4.01.02 Assignment of Decision-Makers: The following City entity or official shall decide the following types of decisions: E.

Type V decisions may only be initiated by the City Council.The Planning Commission holds an initial public hearing on the proposal before making a recommendation to the City Council. The City Council then holds a final public hearing and renders a decision. Public notice is provided for all public hearings (Section LA-23-04 Planning Commission Staff Report Attachment 101: Analyses& Findings Page 5 of 7 Exhibit C 4.01.14).The City Council's decision is the City's final decision and is appealable to LUBA within 21 days after it becomes final. 4.01.09 Initiation of a Legislative Proposal A.The City Council may initiate the consideration of a legislative decision by resolution. B. Actions initiated by the Council shall be referred to the Planning Commission for a public hearing and recommendation to the Council. C. The City Council shall hold the final public hearing on a proposed legislative decision. The Planning Commission hearing is scheduled for January 25, 2024, and the City Council hearing is tentatively scheduled for February 12, 2024, pending a recommendation to the Council by the Planning Commission. On December 18, 2023, staff sent a Post- Acknowledgement Plan Amendment (PAPA) to the Department of Land Conversation and Development (DLCD) in compliance with OAR 660-018-0020. The City notified affected government agencies in conformance with WDO 4.01.14.D. on January 5, 2024, and published notice of both the Planning Commission and City Council hearings in the Woodburn Independent newspaper on January 17, 2024. The provisions are met. Notice: ORS 227.186 Notice to property owners of hearing on certain zone change;form of notice; ... (2) All legislative acts relating to comprehensive plans, land use planning or zoning adopted by a city shall be by ordinance. Pending a decision from the City Council following its public hearing, the Council would be able to direct staff to return with an ordinance for adoption at a subsequent Council meeting. (3) ... at least 20 days but not more than 40 days before the date of the first hearing on an ordinance that proposes to amend an existing comprehensive plan or any element thereof, or to adopt a new comprehensive plan, a city shall cause a written individual notice of a land use change to be mailed to each owner whose property would have to be rezoned in order to comply with the amended or new comprehensive plan if the ordinance becomes effective. (4) At least 20 days but not more than 40 days before the date of the first hearing on an ordinance that proposes to rezone property, a city shall cause a written individual notice of a land use change to be mailed to the owner of each lot or parcel of property that the ordinance proposes to rezone. ... (5) An additional individual notice of land use change required by subsection (3) or (4) of this section shall be approved by the city and shall describe in detail how the proposed ordinance would affect the use of the property.The notice shall: . . . (6) At least 30 days prior to the adoption or amendment of a comprehensive plan or land use regulation by a city pursuant to a requirement of periodic review of the comprehensive plan LA-23-04 Planning Commission Staff Report Attachment 101: Analyses& Findings Page 6 of 7 Exhibit C under ORS 197.628, 197.633 and 197.636,the city shall cause a written individual notice of the land use change to be mailed to the owner of each lot or parcel that will be rezoned as a result of the adoption or enactment. ... (7) Notice provided under this section may be included with the tax statement required under ORS 311.250. (8) Notwithstanding subsection (7) of this section, a city may provide notice of a hearing at any time provided notice is mailed by first class mail or bulk mail to all persons for whom notice is required under subsections (3) and (4) of this section. (9) For purposes of this section, property is rezoned when the city... The City proposes no rezoning or WDO amendment at this time. Because the City is not changing the base zoning classification of property, in other words neither rezoning nor making a zone change, Sections (3), (4) and (5) above are not applicable. Because the proposed amendment is not pursuant to a requirement of periodic review, Sections (6) & (7) & (8) are not applicable. (10) The provisions of this section do not apply to legislative acts of the governing body of the city resulting from action of the Legislative Assembly or the Land Conservation and Development Commission for which notice is provided under ORS 197.047 or resulting from an order of a court of competent jurisdiction. Staff finds the proposed PRMP update and proposed updates to Comprehensive Plan Economic Goals and Policies do not result from actions of the Legislative Assembly or the Land Conservation and Development Commission (LCDC) and that ORS 197.047 is not applicable. As a result, the City of Woodburn is not required for LA 23-04 to do a "Measure 56" notice, the phrase referring to Ballot Measure 56 (1998) that the legislature codified in ORS 227.186, which the legislature later revised via Senate Bill 516 (2003). The provisions are met. LA-23-04 Planning Commission Staff Report Attachment 101: Analyses& Findings Page 7 of 7
