Jonsrud Viewpoint, at 4.95 acres, is north of Highway 26 on Bluff Road and is a designated stop on the Oregon Scenic Byways program and is widely considered to be one of the best views of Mount Hood in Oregon. Stroll the brick pathways, look through the telescopes, and enjoy spectacular views of Mt. Hood and the Sandy River Valley as well as informational signs about the Barlow Road, part of the Oregon Trail.
Located on Sandy Heights west of Bluff Rd., there are two small park areas—one, ½ acre in size, includes a play structure. The other is smaller and is mainly present to preserve existing, mature trees. An accessible foot path connects Sandy Heights to approximately 7 acres of dedicated open space along Tickle Creek and extends to connect with Dubarko Rd.
Most great cities have a central public gathering area, and Sandy is no exception. The City leveraged urban renewal funding to construct a public plaza across the street from City Hall and right next door to the Historical Society Museum on Hoffman Ave.
The Cascadia Village development includes 3 park areas consisting of 2.5 acres of open space, a 1.92 acre multi-use field with a gazebo, and a .38 acre tot lot (on Cascadia Village Drive at Averill Parkway) complete with playground structure and bark chips for ground cover.
Phase I of the Bornstedt Park Master Plan has been completed. This included the installation of fields, paths, a playground, a splash pad and community garden boxes. As additional housing development occurs, Phase II will be built. The second phase has a half court basketball hoop, a gazebo, and a viewing mound near the playground to showcase the view of Mt. Hood.
Barlow Ridge Park is located off Tupper Road just west of Highway 211. It consists of a ¾ acre developed park including a basketball court and play structure. There is also a paver path connecting the neighborhood to undeveloped open space set aside between Dubarko Rd. & and Tickle Creek
Oregon law requires an annual audit by an independent auditor. The City has contracted with Talbot, Korvola & Warwick LLP to conduct these required audits. Types of financial documents that are created through the audit process include the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR), Urban Renewal Financial Statements, and the Single Audit. Additional information on each of these types of reports can be found by clicking the links below.
