The survey was designed to gather community input to help CPRD better understand what residents value about local parks and recreation opportunities, which facilities are used most, and where the district should invest resources to create future opportunities. The survey found the highest levels of respondent familiarity with the Chehalem Cultural Center, hiking trails, playgrounds, and the Aquatic and Fitness Center.

πŸ“£ Traffic Alert: Springbrook Road Sewer Overflow

Due to sustained heavy rainfall last night, the sanitary sewer manhole overflowed on Springbrook Road (south of E 2nd St/Fernwood Rd).

🚧 Traffic is being diverted to the western half of Springbrook Road near the spill site. Please drive with caution.

πŸ‘· Our crews stayed out late and diverted the overflow into special treatment cells to filter the water and prevent the overflow from reaching Springbrook Creek and the Willamette River.

The City is actively looking into ways to divert financial resources to resolve this issue. Stay tuned for updates on the immediate status of the site, as well as near-future updates on upsizing the pipes in this location to prevent continued overflow incidents from happening.
