]]> Every few years, the Bend Parks and Recreation District conducts surveys to gauge use behaviors and priorities of Bend residents in regards to parks and recreation services, including those provided by the park district, as well as by private sector businesses. These results inform projects and priorities for park, trail and recreation services as the community grows and interests wane or intensify.

  • What recreation facilities do you and your household visit more often?
  • How well are your needs being met by existing indoor and outdoor recreation activities?
  • What priorities are important for future projects?

The survey takes less than 15 minutes, and you can find it here. Thank you for sharing your input!

Ends November 20

]]> Bend Park and Recreation (BPRD) is seeking public input on three projects within the Deschutes River Access & Habitat Restoration Plan. These projects are located at McKay Park, Miller’s Landing, and Columbia Park, and include four river access points. BPRD has developed initial concept drawings for each of these locations.

Community input about these concepts will be collected by reviewing an online story map with survey, and through direct communications (emails, phone calls, and comment forms) submitted by community members through the project’s website. There will also be in-person outreach events this winter and spring. The first is being held at the BPRD Community Room (799 SW Columbia St, Bend, OR 97702) on Wednesday, February 1st from 10:00 am-Noon and 5:00 pm- 7:00 pm with Spanish interpretation services provided. All public input will assist the project team in the development of a preferred concept design for each location this summer.

Survey Reveals Strong Support for Deschutes South Canyon as Parkland

Several Neighborhood Associations recently conducted the Deschutes South Canyon Use Survey to learn how residents and visitors currently use this area and to get their thoughts on its future. The survey garnered responses from 2,039 people with an overwhelming majority favoring preserving the land as parkland.

  • 74.2% supported Bend Park and Recreation District (BPRD) creating a new natural area park, similar to Shevlin Park, on the property. An additional 14.7% said they might support this effort.
  • 81.1% thought BPRD funds should help with the purchase.
  • 71.6% said they would support a bond measure to help fund the purchase.

An executive summary with more details on the survey results is available here.

Located in southwest Bend between Brookswood Boulevard and the Deschutes River, the land is currently owned by the Central Oregon Irrigation District (COID) where it operates a piped canal and power station. COID plans to sell a major portion of the property for development. The property is Bend’s largest remaining open space by the Deschutes River, and has been used as a natural recreation area by thousands of residents and visitors for many years.
