Also present were Thomas Mosgrove, Circuit Court Presiding Judge; Ernie Mazorol, Court Administrator; Dennis Maloney, Community Corrections Director; Rick Isham, Legal Counsel; Larry Rice, Public Works Director; Ed Pecoraro, Property Address Coordinator; and Susan Mayea, Office Assistant. 1. JUVENILE REFEREE PROGRAM Before the Board was signature of a Memorandum of Understanding with the Presiding Circuit Court Judge regarding the Deschutes County Juvenile Referee position. Ernie Mazorol testified that the Chief Justice and State Court Administrator were now endorsing the referee program. He said the Memorandum of Understanding asked for funding for six years, from $15,000 to $20,000 a year. The presiding judge would make a budget request to the Board on March 30 of every year, and the Board would decide on May 30 what the expenditure would be for the coming fiscal year. Then the presiding judge would work with the referee to determine what the compensation would be, based on the Board's allocation. He said Judge Mosgrove would be considering whether there should be more than one referee for coverage and consistency. He and the referee would continue to meeting with the Juvenile Justice people quarterly to talk about program goals and how to improve the system. The Board and the presiding judge would meet biannually to discus the program, sooner if either side requested. The Goals of the program were set by the ABA standards that were adopted by the Court. The referee's location would be determined by the Board. However, on a case-by-case basis, the Presiding Judge may move the referee for security or other reasons. He hoped that the referee's staff would be able to be located next to the referee, however a communication link to the court system from the referee's location might not be possible. Judge Mosgrove acknowledged the gratitude of the Circuit Court Judges for the action that the County took in funding this referee program. He felt the referee concept enabled Deschutes County to service the troubled, abused, and neglected children in an expeditious, caring, and effective manner. He said it was an example of what could be accomplished if everyone worked together toward a common goal. He said he looked forward to the continuation of this kind of joint effort in dealing with other problems. PAGE 1 MINUTES: 3/14/90 l iou - 1750 Dennis Maloney said they appreciated the cooperation that had taken place between the Circuit Court and the Commissioners to save the Juvenile Referee Program, which was the "hub" of the juvenile program. He said this was the only arrangement of this kind in the state, and he felt it was the best arrangement in the state. PRANTE: I move signature MAUDLIN: I second.
