on the Proposed

for Special Road
District No. 1
Real Estate Trans- Chairman Tuttle stated that this item has
action (Extension been discussed previously in two Executive
of Discussion held Sessions. Chairman Tuttle outlined the back -
Executive Session ground of the discussion, stating that the
August 19, 1985
Board has been contacted by the Chairman of
Canada Waferboard, Mr. D.T. Devlin, request-
ing the 91.04 acre parcel lying south of
Finley Butte Road and west of the Railroad
for a waferboard plant. This parcel is not
zoned industrial; however, rezoning can be
accomplished. Chairman Tuttle noted that the
Board reviewed the request and responded by
letter to Mr. Devlin on June 18, 1985,
outlining the options available. Mr. Devlin
a"' _
forwarded a letter on July 30, 1985, accept -
co
ing the options. The Board did not receive
that letter; therefore, Mr. Devlin sent a
`:
copy which was received on August 12,
1985. The original letter was received on
N
August 16, 1985.
Chairman Tuttle stated that the Board
received a telephone call from Louisiana
Pacific on August 12, 1985, indicating that

agreement for the very same parcel and
subsequently hand delivered a letter on
August 14, 1985 with their intent. Chairman
Tuttle stated that it is the Board's feeling
that since Canada Waferboard was first in
time with the requested 91.04 parcel, that
the Board has an obligation to proceed with
that firm and offer them the first oppor-
tunity to the 91.04 acres. However, the
Board will also extend a similar arrangement
to Louisiana Pacific of 88 acres adjacent to
the 91.04 parcel. It should also be noted
that Louisiana Pacific might be interested in
a smaller parcel for their plant. Chairman
Tuttle stated that a 35 acre parcel that is
zoned light industrial is presently avail-
able. Chairman Tuttle stated that both of
the firms are going to create the same type
of operation; however, the technology may be
slightly different. The number of jobs
created is estimated to be 75 for Louisiana
Pacific and approximately 125 for Canada
Waferboard.
Chairman Tuttle stated that the action of the
Board would be to transmit to each of the
companies the terms which he outlined.
MOTION: MAUDLIN moved that the Board sign
and send to both companies the
information that has been discuss-
ed.
TUTTLE: Second.
Chairman Tuttle provided packets of informa-
tional material for the media.

Mr. Shotwell asked if any economic develop-
ment money available to the County was used
in pursuing these companies, or did these
companies come in without being pursued.
Chairman Tuttle responded, stating that the
Economic Development Department referred each
of these applicants to the Board. Chairman
Tuttle noted that one of the reasons they are
interested in locating in LaPine is the
proximity to materials.
Jack Thornton, KBND, asked if the Economic
Development Department has any recommenda-
tions.
Chairman Tuttle stated that the Economic
Development Department brought both firms
before the Board, it is felt that given
the order of events, that the Board is
proceeding appropriately as far as giving
first offer to Canada Waferboard and a
similar offer to Louisiana Pacific.
Commissioner Maudlin stated that in the
Board's discussions it was felt that both
companies would be treated equally, and that
there is plenty of area that will be re-
zoned.
Mr. Shotwell asked whether the Companies will
be bringing personnel in with them on a
management level or if they will be doing
the hiring locally.
Commissioner Maudlin stated that they would
probably bring in their own management
personnel; however, all of the employees that
work in the mill and the woods would be hired
locally.
Chairman Tuttle noted that this is a good
example of a merging of high technology
processes with the wood production.
Chairman Tuttle expressed his appreciation to
those members of the media who attended the
Executive Sessions, for their willingness to
understand the process and not give out
information.

Commissioner Maudlin, referring to a question
by R.L. Garrigas, KICE Radio, responded that
both companies are trying to negotiate
contracts with the Forest Service for
materials which will ultimately decide which
company comes into the area.
Commissioner Maudlin explained the use of
waferboard, stating that it is like plywood
in that it is a dry process and can be used
as an exterior finish.
