Commissioner Luke explained how the local vector control district operates. It
must operate through the County regarding lands that are not contiguous, and
contracts with Sunriver and Black Butte Ranch for mosquito control services.
Bruce Landolt of Four Rivers Vector Control District referred to an oversized map
that detailed the areas of concern. Most of the area from southern Bend to La Pine;
however, all areas where the Deschutes River flows through and those areas that
are irrigated can be breeding grounds for the subject mosquito. He estimated a cost
of approximately $20,000 to do testing and monitoring for the mosquito
throughout Deschutes County. Testing should take place between mid-April and
mid-September. (Attached is Exhibit A, a copy of a letter from Four Rivers Vector
Control District regarding this issue)
Timm Schimke stated that the Department of Environmental Quality might have
grant funds available for mosquito control, relating to standing water that is found
in abandoned tires. In the past this type of funding has been available for cleanup
on private land, but not on public grounds. His department has sponsored free
drop off days for old tires, and perhaps this event could be moved up to an earlier
date. He will keep the group advised.
Dan Peddycord added that in areas where there were cases of the West Nile virus
reported, there was extreme public interest that overwhelmed the local public
health agencies. Even though it doesn't seem to be a problem in the local area at
this time, it could have a big impact if cases do occur, including an impact on
tourism. The group discussed this briefly, including how the cities might
contribute to the cost of the monitoring project.
Anna Johnson explained that there would be a public information forum held on
April 30 from 8 to 10 a.m. in the Commissioners' hearing room.
3. Curbside Pickup of Mixed Waste Paper Recycling and Yard Debris
Timm Schimke explained that Deschutes County now has a recycling rate of about
35%, and the goal set the County is 45% by 2009. (He distributed a packet of
information, which is attached as Exhibit B.)
The City of Redmond has moved from monthly recycling pickup to weekly
service, and it includes mixed waste paper. The goal is to add mixed waste paper
recycling in the near future, and possibly yard debris as well.

Deschutes County and City of Bend Council
Page 2 of 6 Pages
The group discussed the potential costs and whether the service should be
mandatory. It was pointed out that citizens living within the city limits seem to be
more open to curbside garbage and recycling pickup than they were years ago.
Self -hauling has gone down as the makeup of the population has changed, and the
cost of self -hauling is not much less than paying for service.
Mr. Schimke also explained that the new cell would extend the life of the landfill
from 2008 to 2029. He said that the commercial haulers will soon be putting
together a proposal regarding the addition of mixed waste paper recycling and
other options.
4. Update on China Hat Road/Knott Road Traffic Issues
Gary Judd distributed a packet of information that included potential changes to
the intersection. (A copy is attached as Exhibit C.) He stated that there was a
community meeting held last week, with Debra Hogan hosting it. About fifty
people attended from the area. There was no real consensus on how problems at
the intersection should be handled; however, the citizens all seemed to be
interested on problems effecting the whole corridor. They also want the area to be
ranked higher on the CIP for funding.
Although there have been fatalities at the intersection, it is not in the top 15
problem areas in the City or County. Some of those areas are being improved, but
others are waiting. It usually takes two years after improvements are made to
determine the impact of the changes.
The State turned down the County's request for a lower speed limit, which the City
and County will appeal jointly in February. Some changes have been made, such
as a flashing light and oversized stop signs; and speeds appear to be down. A
roundabout is deemed too expensive, and removing rock obstructions may only
serve to increase road speeds. A local improvement district is possible if the local
citizens agree.
5. Intergovernmental Agreement - County and City Services
A brief discussion took place regarding the intergovernmental agreement between the
City and County for the County to conduct its own inspections of the new County/
State building. Both agencies have reviewed the document and found it acceptable.

TELFER: Move adoption.
ECKMAN: Second.

DALY: Move approval.
LUKE: Second.
VOTE: Unanimous.
6. Bend Senior Center Loan
Since the City of Bend already took action on this item and moved to forgive the
loan, it was removed from the agenda.
7. Airport Layout Plan
It was explained that the FAA approved the airport layout plan update last week.
The City will be asking the County to put the changes in its comprehensive plan in
a few weeks. The FAA has indicated the changes need to be made in safety
enhancements to bring the airport up to standard.
George Read said this is a quasi-judicial matter. The protection zone will need to
be moved, and per Measure 56, notices will have to be sent out to local residents
about the possible devaluation of their property. A 45 -day notice to the State is
required, and then the Planning Commission and the Board will have hearings.
The process will take a minimum of 100 days, plus 90 more days if it is adopted
without an emergency clause.
(Attached as Exhibit D is a copy of a City of Bend memorandum regarding the
Airport Layout Plan.)
8. City/County Meeting Schedule
It was suggested that these meetings be conducted every other month instead of
quarterly since there is so much information the two agencies need to keep current.
These changes will be made as appropriate.

9. Other Items
A. Oran Teater said there has not been a briefing yet regarding the Bull Trout
listing issue, and he is getting concerned. The Board plans to discuss this with
Legal Counsel on its Monday, January 27 administrative meeting.
B. David Hales stated that the City is drafting a letter regarding concerns about
water issues. The Council will take official action on January 28th, listing
questions and concerns.
C. Mike Maier brought up the fact that since the City no longer has a Community
Development director and its staff is now reduced, it would be a good time for
the County and City to combine services. This could provide the best service to
the public at possibly a reduced cost. Commissioner Luke explained that a
similar agreement is now in place with the City of Redmond and is working well.
Bill Friedman added that he's been a resident of the City and County for about
24 years, and has been involved in government for years. He said the
feedback he has received over the past five years regarding the County's
building inspection and planning services has been good, but he can't say the
same about the City.
Oran Teater and Kathy Eckman added that such collaboration could save on
indirect costs. Mike Maier indicated that there are so many certifications and
so much expertise that can be shared that it makes sense to combine forces.
Deschutes County already provides services to Jefferson, Crook and Lake
Counties in this regard.
A committee consisting of various members of the City and the County will
be formed to review this possible change, and a representative of the Central
Oregon Builders' Association will be asked to participate.
D. Faith Holly Hall of the Interfaith Ministries of Central Oregon then asked to
read a statement to the group regarding the lack of consideration to those of
other than the Christian faith in the City -sponsored Patriots' Day celebration.
(A copy of her statement is attached as Exhibit E.)

21 January 2003
To: Deschutes County Commissioners
Subject: Mosquito Surveillance in Deschutes County
Dear Commissioners,
We would like to propose that Deschutes County enter into a contract with the Four
Rivers Vector Control District to perform an investigation to determine where we have
certain mosquito species breeding that are capable of carrying West Nile Virus (WNV).
The district would propose to spend twenty-five hours per week taking larval samples
from water sources throughout the county, and identifying them in our lab. We will take
GPS waypoints wherever we sample, and label the waypoint with the species identified.
We will then mail the commissioners a monthly report and a copy of themap. The
project would start on April 15, and end on August 15, 2003. We would need $50 per
hour to supply one experienced field technician, with a vehicle, and the equipment
necessary. We would use our existing laboratory equipment at no additional cost.
As summer progresses we will also trap adult mosquitoes from several sites around the
county, sending any of the suspect species for WNV blood testing at a laboratory in
Portland Oregon already set for this purpose. The total cost to the county would be
$20,000.
In order to perform this service to a satisfactory level, we will need authority to enter on
to private lands. Vector control statutes under ORS 452 grant this authority. My
understanding is that our authority is not valid outside a vector district; therefore, I would
urge the commission to form a countywide non -funded vector control district to contract
with us. Time is of the essence. I will need to gear up for this project by training an office
person to relieve me of some of my duties so that I can perform the fieldwork myself.

Issue Summary
Department: Public Works Department Staff Member: Deborah Hogan_
Knott Road/China Hat Road Intersection Safety Staff Report
Staff Review and Recommendation to Council: I
Staff recommends Council and Board of County Commissioners receive staff report.
History: Presented as discussion item: January 23rd, 2003
Presented for public hearing:
Presented for action:
Background:
Traffic issues at the inlet section of Knott/China IIat havc bccn of concern, particularly
in light of the fatal crash that occurred there on August 81h, 2002. Following a
presentation on November 13Lh, BOCC and Council instructed city and county staff to
work together on implementation of snfety improvements and hold an information
meeting with the neighborhood. Most of those improvements are now in place, except
flashing lights on warning signs and stop signs.
Discussion of the Issue and Alternatives Explored:
Recent safety improvements to the intersection include overhead illumination (two
street lights), installation of flexible stanchions on the Knott Road centerline northeast
of the China Hat intersection and additional intersection advance warning signs on
Knott Road.
County staff applied to the state for a speed zone reduction that was not approved.
City staff plans to be before Council in February to request approval to appeal this
ODOT decision. The appeal will request a 35 mile per hour speed zone from China Hat
to 1501 Street and 45 miles per hour from China Hat to the southwest for 700 feet.
On January 161h city and county staff jointly hosted a public meeting. Three hundred
neighborhood property owners were mailed invitations. (The agenda packet from that
meeting is enclosed.) Approximatcly 5U people attended and provided comments
including the following:
• Speeding is an ongoing problem on Knott Road
• Left turn porkPtc are. needed at all the intersections to 15th/Tekampe
• Additional enforcement is needed on Knott Road
• Different neighborhoods have conflicting needs
• Transportation spending does not appear to be equitable, favoring west
side safety projects
• Roundabouts would help, not only at China Hat but the entire corridor
• Aesthetics have suffered: What we have done is very unattractive
• Too much truck traffic, large trucks, truck noise, truck danger
• Knott Road is not built to arterial standards

Background:
The City of Bend began this update to the Bend Municipal Airport Master Plan several years
ago. The intent of the update is to guide development of the Airport over the next 20 years.
Many public meetings were held during the development of the Plan. The neighborhood
surrounding the airport was very active during this process, as was the airport users groups.
The Bend City Council approved the plans during the June 20, 2001 City Council meeting and
submitted the Plan to the Federal Aviation Administration for review in the Fall of 2001.
Discussion of the Issue and Alternatives Explored:
The City of Bend will apply to Deschutes County for a Comprehensive Plan amendment to
adopt the 2002 update to the Bend Municipal Airport Master Plan and the Airport Layout Plan.
FAA has formally approved these planning updates and is working with the City to begin
implementing the projects recommended within the plans. County staff was involved during
the development of the plan and will be essential in helping the City through this process.
Secondary Issues:
The highest priority projects to be completed are safety related improvements to the runway
and the Runway Protection Zone The. reinrntion of Nelson Road approximately 1200 feet to the
south is planned to occur during summer 2003, with the environmental assessment for this
project currently underway. This project is necessary to bring the safety area into compliance
with FAA regulations.
The next major project will be the construction of a new runway to replace the existing runway.
This is also needed to comply with safety regulations regarding the separation distances
between the runway aiid LdAiwiy. The cnvironmental a33e33mentt for this project is scheduled
for 2004 with construction planned for 2005.
Committee Review and Recommendation to Council:
None

Dear Councilors and Commissioners,
We write in response to the Patriots' Day celebration of September 11,, 2002, "One Nation Under
God", which you co-sponsored, and the announced decision to observe an annual Patriots' Day.
We thank you for your willingness to support and endorse such momentous gatherings.
The tragic events of September 11, 2001 prompted a passionate expression of concern within our
community that resulted in nearly 8,000 of our friends and neighbors coming together for events
held in two different locations in Bend. We commend our neighbor religious organization, Bend
Ministerial Association, for their hard work in organizing and presenting "One Nation Under God"
at Les Schwab Amphitheater. The other event was sponsored by us, Interfaith Ministries of
Central Oregon (IMCO), and was held at St. Charles Medical Center.
IMCO, an organization inclusive of all world religions and spiritualities, has been at work in
Central Oregon for over ten years We meet monthly to -provide a forum for the various
spiritualities and religious communities affiliated with IMCO. Our offering, of "Together As One -
an interfaith service of remembrance and hope", on September 11, 2002 included eight faith
traditions presenting from their unique perspectives, while in the audience were people from a
broad range of spiritual paths.
Because of the exclusively Christian nature of Bend Ministerial Association, the -presentation of
"One Nation Under God" as a community event was somewhat diluted by the absence of people of
faith who are non-Christian. Furthermore, a majority of Christians within the community,
including such churches as the Presbyterians, Methodists, Roman Catholics, ELCA Lutherans and
Episcopalians, were also not a part of the event's presentation.
We support your service in the interest of the citizens of Bend and Deschutes County. Should you
decide to again sponsor a community gathering to observe Sept. 11th this fall, we urge support of
a more inclusive expression of the spiritual and religious reality of Central Oregon. We offer to
join together with you and the Bend Ministerial Association in. planning an observance that truly
includes all the people of Bend and Deschutes County.
You will find a list of the constituent members of IMCO attached to this letter.
Sincerely
(!._�
