Rendering of the outside of the proposed Redmond Recreation Center. The Redmond Area Parks and Recreation District is looking to pass a $49
million bond in November to fund construction of the new facility.
Recreation
district. The district currently
encompasses roughly 45,000
people.
The park district estimates
the bond would cost recre-
ation district taxpayers 56
cents per $1,000 of assessed
property value while the
levy would cost 24 cents per
$1,000 of assessed property
value.

“It is definitely in our goals
to have a lower levy after an-
other five years if we have
one at all,” Gilman wrote in a
previous email. “We plan on
offering all new types of pro-
gramming and activities that
should help our operations
get closer to break even with
the current tax rate that we
have.”
The bond would fund
the construction of a new
74,500-square-foot recre-
ational facility at SW 35th
Street and Lava Avenue in
Redmond that would include
multiple swimming pools,
sports fields, a fitness cen-
ter, gym space and more. The
operating levy, meanwhile,
would fund operations for
the facility for five years.
Mayor
Continued from A6
the numbers closely.
“We’re eager to see every vote
counted,” he said. “Once the elec-
tion is state certified, we’ll respect
the will of the voters.”
He said if his campaign comes
up just short, he will consider
other ways to remain involved in
Redmond civic life.
Longtime city councilor Jay
Patrick is currently in third, ac-
cording to the unofficial count.
Patrick said he felt the elec-
tion went as he had feared, with
he and Schimmoller splitting
the votes of right-of-center Red-
mond residents.
He hoped those voters would
look at his more than two de-
cades on experience and city
council and break for him.
“That’s not what happened,”
he said. “And that baffles me.”
Patrick said he too was unsure
about his political future.
Fitch, the current vote leader,
served as mayor of Redmond
from 1998-2002. If the current
count holds, he will return to
the seat more than 20 years af-
ter he last held the title of mayor.
During the campaign, Fitch said
if elected mayor he would have
more dialogue at council meet-
ings, look to overturn the city’s
ban on marijuana dispensaries,
tackle traffic and congestion, in-
crease police patrols of Dry Can-
yon and improve parks.
“It’s humbling, in truth,” said
Fitch, of the unofficial vote
count. “It’ll be a lot of fun be-
cause we have a lot of great ideas
going forward to work with the
new council.”
The next update of votes are
expected to be tallied by the De-
schutes County Clerk by 5 p.m.
on Nov. 15.
