Mr. Isham outlined the background, stating he reviewed the draft plan agreement and the OAPBS lease. Mr. Isham reported that the lease document predates the plan and provides authorization to construct the facilities on Awbrey Butte. Mr. Isham stated that the tower was approved subsequent to a public meeting in July, 1983, with a renewable lease for up to 30 years on that site. However, any improvements, additions, and new struc- tures on the site or on the tower have to receive prior approval from Deschutes County. Mr. Isham stated that there is no limitation set forth in the lease document other than they have to receive the prior approval and that all use must be in accor- dance with all regulations that the County has set forth, and in accordance with federal, state, county, and city laws, ordi- nances, and regulations applicable to the site and uses on the site. Mr. Isham stated that he reviewed the draft plan document and it anticipates as time progresses that certain sites would be eliminated on the Butte and that there would be a number of sites that would become master antenna sites. Mr. Isham stated that in looking at the documents there was no intent when the County placed a minimum of two additional Class C FM antennas on the tower - the intent was minimum, not maximum. VOL 1U FAGE 85 Mr. Isham stated that the County adopted this document to be consistent with the draft plan document. MOTION: PRANTE moved approval of Schedule D for attachment to the KOAB existing lease. MAUDLIN: Second for discussion. Commissioner Maudlin stated that there has been a certain amount of interference on Awbrey Butte; and suggested an amendment to the motion. MOTION: MAUDLIN moved to amend the motion to include if further interference occurs from added facilities to the tower, that they be removed. TUTTLE: Second. Chairman Tuttle stated that given the present situation of undefined and unidentified interference and the source of that inter- ference; in making the change that is being proposed here and if the interference continues to escalate, we want to be able to get at it more quickly then what the conflict resolution process may provide either in the agreements or in the lease. Chairman Tuttle added that if KOAB goes on the air and the problem expands then the Board can deal with it more rapidly and identify it as a specific action at that point. Chairman Tuttle noted that the Board will be voting in favor of adding Commissioner Maudlin's amendment to the motion. VOTE: UNANIMOUS APPROVAL. Chairman Tuttle noted that the Board will be voting on the original motion. VOTE: UNANIMOUS APPROVAL. Mr. Isham stated that we did not reserve to the County authorization to remove the station.
