City shares information about Measure 3-618

Published October 8, 2024

In the upcoming November general election, Lake Oswego voters will decide on Measure 3-618. If approved, this measure would authorize a road safety project and the realignment of a driveway on specific park property. The City of Lake Oswego owns Stevens Meadows, a 28-acre park located in unincorporated Clackamas County. However, the County is responsible for maintaining and improving nearby Stafford and Childs Roads.

Following a multi-year public engagement process and incorporating community feedback, Clackamas County designed and secured funding for a new roundabout. This project was chosen as the preferred solution to address findings from a road safety audit while minimizing the impact on surrounding natural areas.

If Measure 3-618 passes, the County would use up to 0.4 acres of Stevens Meadows. This includes 0.2 acres for the roundabout construction and an additional 0.2 acres to realign an existing gravel driveway used for park maintenance.
