Metro will be conducting an onsite survey between March 19 and April 1 at Glendoveer Golf Course and Fitness Trail to gather feedback on what the community values about Glendoveer and to get input on potential improvements to the facilities. The survey will also be available online March 19 through April 8.
In April, Metro will also conduct discussion groups with interested volunteers to talk about the project in more detail. To participate in a discussion group, contact Corie Harlan at 503-797-7164 or send e-mail to [email protected].
The Glendoveer Golf Course and Fitness Trail, located in East Portland, is an important community asset and one of Metro’s most heavily used facilities. The popular, public golf facility provides amenities for golfers and nature lovers alike with two 18-hole courses, a pro shop, covered tennis courts, a restaurant and a two-mile public trail, all surrounded by hundreds of majestic fir trees. It is estimated that each week, 5,000 people from the surrounding neighborhood, residents in East County and throughout the region use the fitness trail.
Recognizing the need to maintain Glendoveer’s role as a community asset and be to fiscally responsible, Metro is undertaking an assessment project to evaluate current conditions and identify opportunities for improvement. The project will culminate in a more efficient, sustainable and profitable operation.
