OUNTY CLERK
WHEREAS, transmission and major utility lines, because of
their physical configuration, have a generalized impact on an area
affected by the line; and
WHEREAS, individual notice within 250 feet of the property
subject to an application for a transmission or major utility line
would be unlikely to give notice to all persons affected by the
application; and
WHEREAS, it would be burdensome to the County to give such
notice; and
WHEREAS, alternative forms of notice are more reasonable
for such applications; now, therefore,
THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS OF DESCHUTES COUNTY,
OREGON, ORDAINS as follows:
Section 1. That Section 5.000, Notice of Hearing, of
