July 31, 1991
rn[u Maudlin called the meeting to order at 10 a.m. Board
ers in attendance were Dick Maudlin, Tom Throop and Nancy Pope
Schlangen. Also present were Rick Isham, County Counsel; Karen
Green, Community Development Director; Dave Leslie, Planner; Jim
Raisenan, Planner; Dale Van Valkenburg, Planner; and Mike Maier,
County Administrator.
1. CONSENT AGENDA
Consent agenda items before the Board were: #1, approval of
out-of-state travel for solid waste director to attend
conference in Seattle; #2, signature of dedication and
acceptance of road right of way along Bear Creek Road; #3,
approval to contribute $500 toward the Transportation
Ridership Survey; #4, signature of Indemnity Agreement for 6th
Annual Terrebonne Good Earth Celebration on 8/17/91; #5,
signature of MP -90-25 creating two lots on 40 acres along
Hamby Road for Purcell; #6, chair signature of liquor license
renewals for Wagners in South Bend, 7 -Eleven Food Store in SE
Bend, Tumalo Feed Company, Terrebonne Market, LaPine Mini
Mart; Wickiup Junction, and TJ's Quick Stop in LaPine.
SCHLANGEN: I move approval of the consent agenda.
THROOP: Second the motion.
VOTE: THROOP: YES
SCHLANGEN: YES
MAUDLIN: YES
2. MP -90-74 FOR FRED AND JUDY GUNZNER.
Before the Board was signature of MP -90-74 creating two
parcels of 66 -acres and 256 acres in an EFU-80 zone. Jim
Raisenan said there was an approved variance of the minimum
lot size on this partition (Variance 90-37). The original
parcel was 320 acres of which 256 was zoned for surface
mining. That left 66 acres which the Planning Division felt
was adequate for a farm operation. To remove the surface
mining boundaries in order to create an 80 acre parcel would
have created a much greater hardship on the applicant.
THROOP: I'll move signature of MP -90-74.
SCHLANGEN: Second.
VOTE: THROOP: YES
SCHLANGEN: YES
MAUDLIN: YES

3. MJP-91-3 FOR STEPHEN JAOUA 0107 C605
4.
Before the Board was signature of MJP-91-3 creating three farm
parcels of 80, 120 and 120 acres in an EFU-40 zone off Fryrear
Road for Stephen Jaqua. Dale Van Valkenburg said the Jaqua's
had received a variance to the road standards since it was
completely surrounded by BLM lands. There were no irrigation
rights on these properties, however Mr. Jaqua had indicated
that he had a 500 gallon a minute well and was currently
irrigating part of the property. Commissioner Throop asked
how much of the 320 acres was currently under irrigation. Mr.
Van Valkenburg said only about 25 acres. Commissioner Throop
asked what the standards were for taking a 320 acre parcel and
dividing it into three farm parcels in an EFU-40 zone. Mr.
Van Valkenburg said that if the applicants were creating farm
parcels, the only test was whether they met the minimum lot
size which these did.
Commissioner Throop asked if it would trigger the subdivision
ordinance if there was an application submitted in the future
to create further partitions? Mr. Van Valkenburg said that it
would not according to a memo he had from Kevin Harrison,
Senior Planner, who interpreted the rural lands policy to only
apply to residential zones (RR -10 and MUA-10). Commissioner
Throop asked if someone could split 320 acres into eight
parcels and circumvent the subdivision ordinance. Mr. Van
Valkenburg said it would have to be done one at a time, but
that he thought it could be done. Rick Isham said there was
a provision in the subdivision ordinance that said when the
fourth lot was created, showing a pattern of division, it
would trigger the subdivision ordinance.
Chairman Maudlin expressed concern about whether Mr. Jaqua or
the potential buyers of any of these parcels were aware that
requesting one more partition on any of these properties would
trigger the subdivision ordinance.
The Board requested that this item be postponed one week for
further investigation.

Before the Board was award of bid for the purchase of an
Integrated Tool Carrier Articulated Front End Loader to the
low bidder which was Pape' Bros., Inc. for $89,320.
THROOP: I will move the award to Pape' Bros. in the amount
of $89,320.

PL -20, the Deschutes County Comprehensive Plan concerning
mineral and aggregate resources for surface mining sites #400
and #541, to respond to LCDC Continuance Order 91 -CONT -752.

inventory and retain its EFU zoning, while Site #541 would

11. REMODEL OF BOARD MEETING ROOM IN JUVENILE JUSTICE CENTER
Commissioner Throop said that he felt it was important not to
reduce the size of the room during the remodeling of the
building, especially since it was the last large meeting room
PAGE 4 MINUTES: 7/31/91
0107 0608
in the County. He felt that it might be possible to have
movable partitions to make the room into two smaller room when
necessary. Mike Maier said there were no funds in the budget
for partitioning the room, but that it could be considered in
the future. Mike Maier said they would also be talking with
the courts to determine their needs for the room, but were
hopeful that the Board and the courts could use the same
seating arrangement.
12. CENTRAL OREGON TASK FORCE
Commissioner Throop reported that the Central Oregon Fire Task
Force had been working for the past seven months to respond to
the lessons learned from the Awbrey Hall fire.
The Fire Prevention Cooperative worked parallel to and as a
subcommittee of this Task Force, and fire prevention and
response plans and strategies have been implemented. The
Media and Communications Subcommittee worked to improve the
dissemination of both emergency and news/public information in
a more timely, clear, and less cumbersome manner. Finally,
the Command Center Subcommittee formulated the development
plan for the Command Center, which would be located in the
City of Bend Public Works Department meeting room on Forbes
Road.
The following budget was prepared to implement the plans from
the Task Force and its three subcommittees:
Command Center
U.S. West telephone extensions (13) 559
Media/Cellular telephones (2) 1,780
Miscellaneous equipment (generator
connection to building, fax, modem,
computer terminals, office supplies) 3,988
Fire Prevention/Response Materials 9,025
TOTAL: $15,352
Members of the Task Force had received an estimated $11,000 in
donated materials and services. When the cash was raised, 1)
the Fire Prevention Cooperative would print and distribute the
fire prevention response materials to all rural households
within two weeks; and 2) a working group would construct the
Command Center and complete its operations plan. They
proposed raising the $15,352 in the following manner. The
seven larger entities would be asked to contribute a full
share of $1,616; and the smaller entities would be asked to
contribute a 1/2 share of $808. The City of Bend would serve
as the repository for the money and manage the construction of
the Command Center and the distribution of the public
information. When an event occurred, the Command Center would
be operational in 30 minutes, rather than the 24 hours
experienced during the Awbrey Hall fire.

Commissioner Throop recommended that Deschutes County
participate at the $1,616 level and fund the County
contribution from the Industrial Development Revolving Fund.
Chairman Maudlin expressed concern that the last time
pamphlets were made up, most of them ended up sitting in the
fire hall or were thrown away, and hoped that would not happen
this time. Commissioner Throop said the pamphlets would be
clearly identified as something the household should keep in
the event of an emergency. Commissioner Schlangen suggested
having media exposure of the pamphlet to improve its
acceptance and use.
MAUDLIN: I would entertain a motion for funding of the Fire
Task Force Consortium in the amount of $1,616 to be
funded from the Industrial Development Revolving
Fund.
THROOP: I'll make the motion.
SCHLANGEN: Second.
VOTE: THROOP: YES
