Park District seeks input on future recreation needs

With demand for its programs and services continuing to grow and change, the Tualatin Hills Park & Recreation District has scheduled three public open houses in February to better plan for future parks and recreation facilities.

All open houses will start at 7 p.m. They have been geographically distributed to make them as convenient as possible for the public to participate. The one closest to Cedar Mill will be held on Feb. 19, PCC Rock Creek Campus, Building 9 Events Center, 17705 NW Springville Road, Portland.

THPRD officials will recap their 2006 Comprehensive Plan and discuss potential projects for the future. In addition, results of a recent phone survey about public attitudes toward parks and recreation in this area will be presented. Attendees will have ample opportunity to ask questions and provide their ideas and priorities. Comments will help THPRD determine whether to seek a capital bond measure this November.

Formed in 1955, THPRD is the largest special park district in Oregon, spanning about 50 square miles and serving more than 200,000 residents. For more information, visit www.thprd.org.
