MINUTES OF SPECIAL MEETING
DESC1 UTES COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
TUESDAY, JANUARY 25, 2005
Commissioners' Conference Room - Administration Building - 1300 NW Wall St.., Bend
Present were Commissioners Michael M. Daly, Tom De Wolf and Dennis R. Luke.
Also present were Mike Maier, County Administrator; County Administrators from
Jackson, Lane and Washington Counties; and, for a portion of the meeting, Susan
Ross, Commissioners' Office and MarkPilliod, Legal Counsel. No representatives
of the media or other citizens were present.
The meeting began at 8:45 a.m.
The purpose of the meeting was to discuss how these three other counties
structure the administration workload of their organizations. With Mike Maier's
upcoming retirement, it was felt it is time to review how Deschutes County is
structured, since it has become a much larger and more complex entity during the
past twenty -plus years.
All three counties have an organizational structure that is somewhat different
than that of Deschutes County. In short, the County Commissioners of the three
entities are much less involved in the day to day operation of their organization.
Much of the operational workload is handled by directors who report to the
County Administrator, leaving the Commissioners to focus primarily on policy
making issues.
The Commissioners suggested that Mike Maier investigate the possibility of
hiring a consultant who specializes in County organization work to determine
what kind of organizational structure would best benefit Deschutes County.
Being no further discussion, the meeting adjourned at 11:50 a.m.
