Hart Wetland Upper Pond, May 1995
Hart Wetland is located in a residential neighborhood in
Tigard. The wetland features a small stream and 2 ponds. In August 1989, 2.7 acres of the property was acquired by a fee title
donation. An additional acre was acquired from the City of Tigard in a
land exchange.
Restoration and Enhancements
Restoration
efforts have included restoring the stream to daylight by removing a culvert and
excavating the ponds.
There have been several instances of encroachment in the upper
part of the property. Also, two tree blow-downs that have fallen into
fences or yards and one dead 60' douglas fir tree was removed in June 2000.
Access
The entrance to the wetland is on a lot on SW Katherine
St. A naturescaped front entrance has been created, including a 4' fence
and native plants.
