MINUTES OF ADMINISTRATIVE LIAISON
DESCHUTES COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 9, 2002
Present were Commissioners Tom DeWolf, Dennis R. Luke and Michael M. Daly.
Also present were Mike Maier, County Administrator; Tammy Credicott, Property
Management; Tom Blust, Road Department, Tom Cornelliac, Information
Technologies; and David Givans, Commissioners' Office.
Mike Maier opened the meeting at 1:30 p.m.
1. General Discussion of Humane Society of Central Oregon Property.
Commissioner DeWolf said he feels the land and the fees are tied together. He
stressed that HSCO needs to be clear that they understand the County may not
agree with an increase in dog boarding fees. Commissioner Luke added that
their financials are not easily understood. David Givans is currently working on
an analysis of the cost per day per dog, but the formula used by HSCO is not
clear. Commissioner DeWolf said he is frustrated, as HSCO seems to want the
taxpayers to pay, but the County takes the heat.
Commissioner Daly stated that both humane societies need to expand to handle
the demand, and both must generate fees to cover their costs, especially debt
service. He said that it's possible both agencies will need to increase fees.
Mike Maier suggested that David Givans and Marty Wynne meet with HSCO
first, and that the Board meet with HSCO after some of the information has
been clarified and detailed.
Tammy Credicott then presented HSCO's tentative site plan for the Board's
review.

2. Discussion of Title III Funding.
The group discussed the amount of money available and proposed projects,
including the Highway 97 environmental study and the MDT (mobile data
terminal) program for Search and Rescue. Detailed were funding for SAR,
$195,000; Highway 97/Century Drive, $50,000; Heart of Oregon, $79,500; and
CDD Addressing, $14,000.
Commissioner DeWolf recommended that $40,000 goes to the MDT program,
and $10,000 more to the Heart of Oregon, with the understanding the funds are
to be reimbursed.
3. Discussion of Appointments to the Internal Auditor Committee.
A brief discussion took place regarding appointments to this committee, which
will likely meet once a quarter. It was decided that Dennis Luke would
represent the Board. Mike Maier also recommended that George Read and Les
Stiles be on the committee. Citizens who could possibly be on the committee
were Gary Peters, Lori Miller, Ruth Burleigh, Chuck Rieb, Mary Jordan and
Kyle Sager. After discussing these individuals' qualifications and availability, it
was decided that Lori Miller, Mary Jordan and Chuck Rieb would be contacted
to determine if they are interested in participating.
4. Discussion regarding Potential Bend Metro Park & Recreation District
Board Appointments.
A brief discussion took place regarding the shorter time frame for handling this
issue. Commissioner DeWolf indicated he would like to wait until September
17 or 18 to name potential members of the interview team.
5. Interviews of Candidates for Communications Coordinator Position.
Tom Cornelliac said he would like to add one question to the list of interview
questions, relating to the candidates use of the internet in his or her daily work.

6. Building Projects Update.
Mike Maier said the projects are rolling along, and that last week various
representatives of the City of Bend, the State, the County, the architect and the
developer met to go over some basic details.
Steve Scott is working on the purchase of properties as necessary; one owner is
creating a problem in that he is being a "hard sell". The County may end up not
only paying him fair market value for his property, but may also end up
carrying the loan for the person's purchase of a replacement property.
Estimates are being obtained for moving the two manufactured homes to a new
temporary location.
A County group is meeting every week to discuss the other projects tied into
this, and to determine space needs in the new building. The Deschutes Services
Building may stay in place, and could house the Commission on Children &
Families and other child and family-oriented services, as well as the daycare
center.
In addition, representatives of Midstate Electric indicated that they require
about a year to relocate.
7. Other Business.
A discussion then took place regarding the proposed Juvenile Justice budget.
The Commissioners noted that the budget presented to them was probably a
ten-month budget, and they would like to see a full year's budget plus roll -ups.
Funding would need to come from the general fund.
The group then briefly discussed how state budget cuts might occur, since the
Legislature cannot do line item reductions. In any case, the CYIP will probably
not survive the next legislative session.
Being no further items brought before the group, the meeting ended at 2:45 p.m.
