ATTACHMENT XXII TO JOINT OPERATING PLAN WITH DESCHUTES NATIONAL FOREST Before the Board was signature of Attachment XXII to Joint Operating and Financial Plan for Reimbursable Services Requested by the Deschutes National Forest. This was a renewal of the contract with the Deschutes National Forest for Sheriff's Department services on their lands. Darrell Davidson said the cost for services was increased by $1.25 an hour and mileage was increased $.04 a mile. PRANTE: I would move signature of Attachment XXII. MAUDLIN: Second. VOTE: PRANTE: YES THROOP: YES MAUDLIN: YES 2. ORDINANCE 90-011 SIGNS WITHIN PUBLIC RIGHTS-OF-WAY Before the Board was consideration of ordinance 90-011 adopting Chapter 10.05, Right-of-way Signs, Deschutes County Code, which would establish standards and procedures for signs to be installed and maintained within public rights-of-way which would fall under the jurisdiction of the Board of County Commissioners. Rick Isham said the state law provided that by ordinance the County could allow off-premises signs to be placed if they were directed toward a tourist facility or a business that wouldn't otherwise be easy to locate. By having an ordinance, the County would be able to provide an alternative to existing signs which were being place privately in the right-of-way. The application fee would include the cost of the sign plus two years' projected maintenance since the signs would be maintained by the County. Commissioner Maudlin was concerned that there were more important issues than signs on which the County Code PAGE 1 MINUTES: 1/2/91 11111UNCHtD 1491 w.~ 105 - 1874 Enforcement Officer should be spending his time. He said the County currently had the right to pick up the signs in the right-of-way but weren't doing it. Commissioner Throop liked the ordinance because it set out standards and procedures for signs to be installed and maintained within public rights-of-way. He felt this would be more of an issue for the Public Works Department and would not impact the CDD Code Enforcement Officer. Commissioner Prante said it would make those signs which were necessary to assist the public in finding businesses and services legal. Larry Rice said the Planning Commission had been concerned about some illegal signs leading people into subdivisions and asked for an ordinance to be developed. The Planning Commission held two public hearings on the ordinance before forwarding to the Board of Commissioners. He wanted the ordinance to be implemented so he could authorize signs for businesses, churches, schools, etc. which really needed the signs, i.e. Thousand Trails. If the ordinance were passed, the Public Works Department would enforce it. Four members of the Public Works staff were authorized to issue citations and had done so for solid waste violations. Rick Isham said there had never been an appearance in court on any Public Works citation. Commissioner Maudlin asked what the difference was between the County Sign Ordinance and this ordinance. Larry Rice said the County Sign Ordinance pertained to signs on property, and this ordinance referred to signs which were in the County right- of-way. Larry Rice said of there was an offensive sign or a sign which interfered with a regulatory sign, they could take it down. If they knew who had placed the sign in the right- of-way, they would ask them to pick up the sign and let them know it could no longer be placed in the right-of-way. He did not feel there would be a lot of citations involved with the ordinance. Commissioner Maudlin left the meeting at this point. PRANTE : I would move first and second reading by title only. THROOP: I'll second the motion. VOTE: PRANTE: YES THROOP: YES MAUDLIN: Excused Chair Throop performed the first and second readings of Ordinance 90-011 by title only. PAGE 2 MINUTES: 1/2/91 185 - 1875 PRANTE: Move adoption. THROOP: I'll second the motion. VOTE: PRANTE: YES THROOP: YES MAUDLIN: Excused Commissioner Maudlin rejoined the meeting at this point. 3. RESOLUTION 91-002 DECLARING INTENTION TO TRANSFER PROPERTY Before the Board was approval of Resolution 91-002 declaring the intention of Deschutes County to transfer real property to the City of Redmond for public purposes and setting a public hearing. Chair Throop said the senior citizens in the City of Redmond had received Community Development Block Grant funds to build a new Senior Center. It would be built just east of the Redmond Fire Station. The site was too small for the parking that would be needed, so the City was going to purchase two lots to the east of the public property to allow more space for the Senior Center needs. The City of Redmond wanted to move the two homes on this property to some property currently owned by the County, and then sell them to pay for the property they purchased next to the Senior Center site. The City of Redmond was asking the County to transfer the titles for these two lots to the City of Redmond. Commissioner Throop said this transfer of titles would be Deschutes County's contribution to the Redmond Senior Center Project. Jane Schroeder, Redmond City Council Member, introduced Burt Ferguson and Charlie Speck, representing Redmond senior citizens, and Joe Hannon, Redmond City Manager. Burt Ferguson thanked the Commissioners for considering the transfer. He said that the houses would both fit on one lot, and they had a buyer for the lot with the houses. Rick Isham said there was a $50,000 set aside in this year's fiscal budget for property transactions for the City of Redmond. Commissioner Throop said the City of Redmond was considering using this $50,000 set aside to help acquire the two parcels next to the senior center site. Commissioner Prante asked what the Commissioners needed to do to make this project go forward. Rick Isham said they needed to adopt Resolution 91-002 declaring their intention to transfer the two lots, to hold a public hearing, and then the deeds could be signed. He said the legal descriptions for the lots were still being worked on. Joe Hannon said that PAGE 3 MINUTES: 1/2/91 185 •1876 although the larger of the two lots might accommodate both of the houses, they would still want the other lot to combine with some other parcels for a three acre park. Jane Schroeder said that the City would also like the County to transfer deeds on two lots on Salmon Avenue between 35th and 36th Street which were not of great value now because they didn't have water and sewer. She said having the total of four lots would give the City more flexibility to get the $80,000 needed to buy the lots next to the senior center. PRANTE: I would move adoption of Resolution 91-002. MAUDLIN: Second. Rick Isham said that the Resolution could be reworked to include the four lots if that were the wish of the Commission. Commissioner Maudlin said he had no objection to the two lots with sewer and water being transferred but wanted more time to look at the other two lots on Salmon Avenue. Joe Hannon said the proceeds from the sale of these properties would be spent to purchase the property next to the senior center site, and he was concerned that the sale of the two county lots and houses would not bring in the $80,000 needed, thus the need for the two additional lots. Commissioner Prante said the County had helped the Bend seniors with cash to pay off their mortgage, and that this was an appropriate way to help the Redmond seniors since the County was cash poor due to Ballot Measure 5. PRANTE: I'll amend the motion to include all four lots. MAUDLIN: Second. VOTE: PRANTE: YES THROOP: YES MAUDLIN: YES 4. CONSENT OF ASSIGNMENT OF LEASE Before the Board was signature of a Consent of the Assignment of Lease dated December 16, 1990, between the Estate of Marvin Rheinholdt as Assignor and Sequoia Communications. Rick Isham said that Marvin Rheinholdt had passed away about one year ago and the estate was being probated by his daughter who had no desire to run a communications business. The estate held the lease to the property where KICE's tower was located on Awbrey Butte. This Assignment did not extend or expand that lease but merely allowed it to be transferred to the company which operated KICE. Rick Isham said it was his belief that Marvin Rheinholdt held the lease and owned the buildings while KICE PAGE 4 MINUTES: 1/2/91 185 1877 built the tower and owned the tower, and they had an exchange of services as opposed to consideration. PRANTE: I'd move signature of the transfer of the lease. MAUDLIN: I'll second the motion. VOTE: PRANTE: YES THROOP: YES MAUDLIN: YES 5. PERSONAL SERVICES CONTRACT WITH JANET DAUCSAVAGE Before the Board was signature of a Personal Services Contract with Janet Daucsavage to provide speech and language assessments, screenings and consultation.

VOTE: PRANTE: YES THROOP: YES MAUDLIN: YES LEASE FOR ROSIE BAREIS COMMUNITY CAMPUS Before the Board was signature of a Lease with the Deschutes County children's Foundation as Tenant for the Rosie Bareis Community Campus. Rick Isham said the County closed the purchase of the property on December 31, 1990, and this lease would provide for the ongoing maintenance and payment of the debt service schedule over the period of the financing. The Foundation would operate the facility. Commissioner Throop offered the Board's thanks to Commissioner Prante for the leadership she provided in putting this project together. PRANTE: I would move signature of the Lease for the Rose Bareis Community Campus. MAUDLIN: I'll second it. VOTE: PRANTE: YES THROOP: YES MAUDLIN: YES PAGE 7 MINUTES: 1/2/91 105 a 1880 15.
