this was a clear violation. There was a
discussion regarding the noise level that

Other Staff/ Chairman Shepard addressed the storage of the
Public Concerns ballot boxes. The boxes had been stored in
Room "A", where they took up a lot of room,
were unsightly and the location was
inconvenient. After speaking with Doug Maul
and Neal Hudson, room was found in the
Department of Public Works to store the boxes.
There is also a place that is warm where
persons working on the ballot boxes prior to
an election can work. When the Post office is
acquired and refurbished, there will probably
be room to store the boxes there. Chairman
Shepard suggest that since the election is
over and there won't be another election for
several months, that a letter be written to
Rosemary, explaining the inconvenience the
boxes are causing, suggesting the new storage
area and saying that Doug Maul will be happy
to work with her in expiditing this move.

a good idea. It was agreed that a letter
would be written to Rosemary Patterson
explaining this move.

Hearings Officer brought the contract that had been prepared in
accordance with the memorandum that had been
circulated between the Board and Myer

the County will provide secretarial staff
support and was a little longer than what had
been discussed. Rick explained that he had
made the contract to terminate at the end of
the calendar year and that the contract was
subject to seven days notice which will allow
him time to clean up anything that he is
working on. The Hearings Officer will hear
those items assigned to him by the Planning
Director. Commission Paulson felt that this
contract was preferrable to the one earlier

Discussion on Chairman Shepard felt that the meeting should
the Union Election be held in order to accertain what was going
to transpire in this matter and to allow
an understanding to all those involved. Mike
Maier indicated that they had gotten the
feeling that the County's chances for getting
an investigation were diminishing and that was
the main reason for attempting to postpone an
election. They wished to have a complete
investigation completed prior to the time that
an election would be scheduled. They were
hoping to get together with the Union and ERB
to set an election date with the understanding
that maybe something would flair up under the
investigation. Mike said that they wished to
establish the rules, procedures, agreements
for the campaign and to proceed with the
program. Jim France, Deschutes County Sheriff
said that he felt that his investigation was
the only one that was going to take place.
Jim had talked with Marla Rae who indicated
that the Attorney General's office will not be
getting involved. Sheriff France indicated
that he had talked with Sheriff Hand in Marion
County and that they will cooperate with
Deschutes County in an investigation. He was
planning to send two Detectives to Salem on
Monday to commence an investigation and will
stay in that area until all leads have been
exhausted. Bruce Bischoff indicated that the
meeting of November 3, 1982 would involve a
pre-election conference, where the Union,
Employment Relations Board and the employer's
representative negotiate the details of an
election. They will consider setting an
election date two to three weeks away.
Chairman Shepard felt that all three parties
involved, the ERB, the Union and the County
would be subject to some inquiry. He felt
that if the County consents to an election
prior to the outcome of an investigation and
if it is found that ERB is implicated in this
problem that it would tarnish the election.
He felt that it was unwise to hold an election
until the matter was cleared up. Commissioner
Young agreed with Commissioner Shepard.
Commissioner Paulson asked what options did
the County have. There was a general
discussion regarding the ballots and the
possiblities their demise. Bruce Bischoff
suggested that the election be set for around
November 30th or the 1st part of December.
The Commissioners agreed to this.
