MINUTES OF SHERIFF'S LIAISON MEETING
WEDNESDAY, JUNE 259 2003
Present were Deschutes County Board of Commissioner Chair, Dennis Luke;
Commissioners Tom DeWolf and Mike Daly; Mike Maier, County Administrator;
Rick Isham, Legal Counsel; Sheriff Les Stiles; Sue Brewster and John Sholes of the
Sheriff's Office; and media representative Barney Lerten from the Bugle and

#1. Motorola Radio Equipment Contract
The Sheriff presented a modified Motorola radio contract for consideration. The
contract was significantly improved in terms of cost, and provided 30 days for
either party to terminate the contract for convenience.
After considerable discussion, Dennis Luke moved approval subject to legal
review, and Mike Daly seconded; there was unanimous approval.
#2 Taxing Districts
The Sheriff discussed funding options with the Board; although no vote was taken,
the consensus of the meeting was that the Sheriff should pursue the option of
permanent tax funding through two taxing districts -- one district for the jail and
mandated services and another district for rural patrol.
#3 Awbrey Butte Towers
Sheriff Stiles made a presentation regarding the status of the proposal for towers on
Awbrey Butte. Sue Brewster recommended hiring Tom Sponslor, former
Multnomah County Legal Counsel, as special counsel to explore FCC issues
relating to the towers and the potential for interference.
