Milwaukie seeks clarity from county and Metro on park funding; staff outlines options for Metro local-share dollars
Summary
City staff said negotiations with the North Clackamas Parks & Recreation District (NCPRD) and county continue on the Milwaukie Bay Park cooperative agreements; Metro legal counsel advised limits on loaning Metro local-share grant funds, and staff outlined options (proportional share, loan with separate repayment agreement, or clawback) while warning a year-end deal was unlikely.
City staff updated the Milwaukie City Council on Dec. 2 about ongoing negotiations with the North Clackamas Parks & Recreation District (NCPRD) and county counsel over the Milwaukie Bay Park intergovernmental agreements.
Staff said they transmitted redlines of the city—s proposals to county staff on Nov. 14 and then met with county administrators and the NCPRD director. County counsel requested formal redlines and staff provided an interim, unreviewed version pending final legal sign-off. The NCPRD board met and staff expected an official response the next week; staff cautioned that, given meeting cycles and review needs, completing a final agreement and vote before year-end appeared unlikely.
