PGE Park Zoning Amendment

As the City prepares to renovate/retrofit PGE Park for Major League Soccer, the Bureau of Planning and Sustainability (BPS) is preparing an amendment to the Zoning Code that would allow a small amount of office use at PGE Park. As part of the renovation of the stadium, Peregrine, LLC would like to add space for a sports medicine clinic to serve both the athletes using the stadium and the public.

 

The Zoning Code considers medical clinics an office use. Because PGE Park is in an Open Space (OS) zone -- and office uses are prohibited in OS zones -- an amendment is required to allow this use. BPS proposes allowing up to 15,000 square feet of office space to be developed within the PGE Park site. This is equivalent to about 5% of the site area at PGE Park. This amendment will only affect PGE Park. No other properties in the city will be affected. Contact Karl Lisle (503-823-4286, klisle@ci.portland.or.us) for more information about this amendment and the adoption process.
 
Peregrine, LLC is working with the neighborhood associations surrounding the stadium to amend the Good Neighbor Agreement and Comprehensive Transportation Management Plan for operation of the stadium. The revised plans will address the impacts of Major League Soccer and the sports medicine clinic at PGE Park. Contact Dave Logsdon (503-823-6958, dlogsdon@ci.portland.or.us) at the Office of Management and Finance for more information on these plans.
