[doc] Maintenance. pp. 936-937 ↗ The Maintenance program was realigned into three component programs—Facility and Amenity Maintenance, Natural Area Maintenance, and Park Maintenance—to provide greater transparency. The 2026-27 proposed budget shows $0 across all categories, as the program is now a pass-through that references three component programs for details. Historically, the program's largest expenses were personnel ($11.5M in 2023-24) and internal materials and services ($2.4M).
[doc] Marketing & Communications pp. 938-939 ↗ Portland Parks & Recreation's Marketing & Communications program ensures clear public information about parks, recreation, and investments through strategic messaging, media relations, and storytelling. The program supports public trust and participation while explaining levy-funded services. Budget dropped from $694,560 (2024-25) to $0 (2026-27), with staffing reduced from 7 FTE + 2 CSA positions to 5 FTE during 2025-26 reorganization. Despite resource constraints, the program remains responsible for communications across programs, capital projects, and Parks Levy impacts.
[doc] Tree Regulation pp. 940-941 ↗ The Tree Regulation program transferred from Portland Parks & Recreation to Portland Permitting & Development effective October 1, 2025, with 10 FTE positions eliminated and 27 FTE transferred. For FY 2026-27, the program shows $0 revenues and $0 expenses in PP&R, and PP&R proposes to eliminate a $317,505 subsidy to cover PP&D's revenue shortfall.
