    Gresham : Pleasant Valley community plan
    (City of Gresham (Or.), 2005-01-06) Gresham (Or.); Gresham (Or.). Community & Economic Development Dept.; Otak, Inc.; Winterbrook Planning (Firm); Angelo Eaton & Associates; Adolfson Associates; Parametrix, Inc.; DKS Associates
    On May 14, 2002, the Pleasant Valley Concept Plan Steering Committee endorsed a Concept Plan and set of Implementation Strategies for the valley. The central theme of the plan is to create an urban community through the integration of land use, transportation and natural resource elements. The Concept Plan has been refined into the Plan District. The Plan District consists of a map of proposed comprehensive plan designations, with associated code text, and other maps, diagrams and background findings. The Plan District will fulfill the goal of the Concept Plan to create a quality living environment, with a sense of place that is unique to Pleasant Valley. To achieve this goal, the Plan District will implement compact mixed-use neighborhoods, a town center, neighborhood edges and centers, a variety of housing options, transportation alternatives, pedestrian friendly urban design and the integration of the natural environment into the design of the community. Critical to the sense of place in Pleasant Valley are the valley’s natural resources and extensive network of streams and wetlands. The Plan District will allow the valley to develop in such a way that minimizes impact on these natural features, while allowing these features to enhance the built environment. [From the document]

    This report updates the resource inventory, analysis and protection program for City of Portland Resource Site 30, Boring Lava Domes, (Lava Domes).

This study was initiated to implement Action Item EC7 of the Outer Southeast Community Plan, which reads: "Conduct a new study within the next three years to consider the refinement of environmental zoning in the Johnson Creek basin."1 The Portland City Planning Commission asked for this study in response to concerns raised by local citizens and City bureaus, which called attention to the significance of the Lava Domes and the need for particular study and refinement in that part of the basin.
