Title
Willamette Falls Legacy Project Riverwalk Design Concepts
Body
RECOMMENDED ACTION (Motion):
Staff recommends the City Commission provide feedback on the Riverwalk Project.
BACKGROUND:
Willamette Falls Legacy Project staff and design team members will provide an update on the riverwalk design process, with a focus on the design concept drawings that were part of a public workshop on November 17, 2016. It is hoped that this will be a dialogue with the Commission rather than a one-way communication. The project team wishes to gather input from the Commission to feed into the preferred design.
The presentation will cover the following topics:
- Update on parking and transportation work that will kick off in January 2017
- Design concepts for the north riverbank, pipe chase, and clarifier
- Materiality and experience for explorer trails, the public yard, and the falls overlook
- Community engagement
- Project schedule and next steps
- Q&A
