1. CITIZEN INPUT
None was offered.
2. Before the Board was a Presentation of the Activities of the RSVP (Retired
& Senior Volunteer Program) "On Guard" Community Watch Program.
Marie Phillis, Director, and Lawrence Blakeslee, Volunteer Project Manager of
RSVP presented information on their situational awareness program, and a
silent universal signal program, to help the public deal with suspicious behavior
they observe and how to react when there is an emergency.
As of today, over 1,000 citizens have been trained in the program. Numerous
school-age children have also been trained in a few basic signals in order to
communicate silently with adults if the child is being held against his or her
will.
Minutes of Board of Commissioners' Meeting Wednesday, May 25, 2005
Page 1 of 9 Pages
Marie Phillis pointed out that it is imperative that law enforcement officials and
teachers know the signals so they can understand the child's communication. In
addition, this program has given adults the knowledge to identify suspicious
situations. Mr. Blakeslee stated that it is important that adults be aware of
surroundings and to report any behavior that is suspicious, as it is better to take
the extra precaution.
Ms. Phillis explained that the more agencies and individuals who are involved,
the better it will be for everyone in the area. It is hoped that the program can be
completed within three years, bringing in businesses, government agencies, and
citizens. The group encouraged anyone who is at least 55 years of age to
contact RSVP and volunteer to assist in this endeavor.

5. Before the Board was a Public Hearing, and Consideration of the First and
Second Readings and Adoption, by Emergency, of Ordinance No. 2005-
028, Amendments to the County Comprehensive Plan, Adding the Agnes
and Henry I Sottong House and Barn (60550 Tekampe Road, Bend -
Owner, Ladkin) to Historic and Cultural Resources.
Chair DeWolf read the opening statement at this time. There were no
declarations from the Board of bias, prejudgment or personal interest, and no
challenges from the audience.
Pat Kliewer gave a brief overview of the item. Craig Ladkin, the current owner
of the property, accompanied her. The findings indicate that it would be
appropriate for this property to be included as a historic resource. The
Commissioners agreed that this property should qualify for this designation.
Chair DeWolf then opened the public hearing; no testimony was offered.
Laurie Craghead stated that the first and second readings will need to take place
at a later date since the documents are not yet finalized.
Chair DeWolf closed the public hearing.
The first and second readings will take place in June.
6. Before the Board was a Public Hearing, and Consideration of the First and
Second Readings and Adoption, by Emergency, of Ordinance No. 2005-
031, Amendments to County Code relating to the Historical Landmarks
Commission Membership and Appointments.
Chair DeWolf read the opening statement at this time. There were no
declarations of bias, prejudgment or personal interest offered by the
Commissioners, and no challenges were received from the audience.
Pat Kliewer explained that this ordinance would change the representation on
the Landmarks Commission to change some representatives over to the cities
instead of the County to better reflect how the population is disbursed
throughout the County. The Board appoints the Pioneer Association members
and this would not change. The cities have also asked that the applicants
appointed need to be the best qualified for the positions they are seeking.
She was accompanied by Richard Martinson, who is the current County
representative.

9. Before the Board was Continuation of a Hearing (from May 11), and
Consideration of Signature of Order No. 2005-027 (Meland), regarding a
Claim for Compensation under Measure 37.
Mark Pilliod explained the reason for the continuance of the hearing; Mr.
Meland provided new information indicating an earlier ownership date of 1966,
which staff has verified.
There is an error on page 4 of the Administrator's recommendation; the zoning
at the time is shown as incorrect, and the sentence will be deleted.
Tom Anderson stated that the original information on the application was a
desired split into two five-acre pieces; however, Mr. Meland may want to
subdivide it further. He has been made aware that he still has to work with
Community Development on an application for any partition or subdivision.

10. Before the Board was a Public Hearing on Ordinance No. 2005-026, a Text
Amendment regarding the La Pine Neighborhood Planning Area.
Chair DeWolf read the opening statement. Regarding bias, prejudgment or
personal interest, the Commissioners claimed none. No challenges from the
audience were offered.
Chris Schmoyer explained that the Ordinance would involve placing single
family dwellings on the property; and it would remove single family dwellings
from being a conditional use. The documents also address using zero-lot-line
arrangements.
The hearing was published in the Bulletin and the property was posted as
required. No comments have been received. The Planning Commission
supports five to one; the one person wanted to handle each change individually
rather than with one blanket change.
Chair DeWolf opened the public hearing.
Terri Valiant and Dennis Pahlisch of Pahlisch Homes gave an overview of the
existing layout of the properties as it would be required under current Code, and
the layout if flexibility was granted under the new Ordinance.

ANNUAL REPORT OF THE HUNGER PREVENTION COALITION - 2003-2004
BACKGROUND
The Hunger Prevention Coalition of Central Oregon was formed in 2000 and includes citizen
volunteers as well as representatives of virtually all the public and private groups involved in addressing
hunger problems in Central Oregon. These include agencies that work with COCAAN to receive and
distribute food from the Oregon Food Bank. The goal of the Hunger Prevention Coalition is to seek
solutions to end hunger in Central Oregon by identifying its root causes, advocating for the hungry,
promoting awareness of the issues, and by improving access to food. After almost two years of informal
but successful cooperation, the Coalition adopted bylaws and elected a Board of Directors in June, 2002.
We obtained an IRS determination letter of 501 [c]3 status in mid-2003.
THE COALITION SEEKS SOLUTIONS TO END HUNGER
- BY IDENTIFYING THE ROOT CAUSES
In 2002, the Hunger Prevention Coalition worked with COCAAN to complete a survey of 1,047
Bend, Redmond, LaPine and Sisters residents who were visiting social service agencies and food
distribution centers. We learned that the problem of hunger is real in our Central Oregon communities.
Three out of four of these households don't have enough money for food. One of five often cuts the size
of their meal or skips meals because there isn't enough money for food - and 13% said they do so on a
daily basis. Good nutrition means eating foods from all the food groups. But 17% of households often
and 48% sometimes are not able to do this. More than half (56%) of the surveyed households are families
with children. In these families, children were spared the worst impact. Nevertheless, 18% reported
sometimes cutting the size of children's meals because there wasn't enough money for food, and one
quarter of the families said that sometimes the children were hungry but they just couldn't afford more
food. The information from this survey has been used in Coalition publicity and fundraising.
THE COALITION SEEKS SOLUTIONS TO END HUNGER
-BY IMPROVING ACCESS TO FOOD
HELP FILL EMPTY PLATES
With the assistance of funds provided by the Oregon Community Foundation, one of the major
activities of the Coalition has been the inauguration and expansion of the "Help Fill Empty Plates"
program, our major fund-raiser. The funds are donations from generous shoppers who use the coupons
on the distinctive apple-green "Help Fill Empty Plates" placards at the checkouts of several grocery
stores in the region. Every dollar raised by "Empty Plates" is distributed to food provider agencies. The
checkout coupons equal one meal (value $2.45), one family meal (value $5), or one food basket (value
$10). The coupon is scanned along with other purchased items, and the tax-deductible donation is
included in the final bill. The cooperating grocers send a monthly check for the totals raised to the
Hunger Prevention Coalition for disbursement. In turn, the Coalition sends monthly checks to the
recipient programs.
The awards are a specific proportion of the total monies raised and vary monthly according to the
amounts received. Proportions are based on the numbers of individuals served by the applicant agency in
recent months, need for funds, and assurances that the money will be used to increase the numbers of
meals and or enhance the nutritional quality offered. All applicants mention adding either more fresh fruits
and vegetables or more high protein foods, or both. The third round of awards in late 2004 went to twelve
agencies. The recipient agencies include food pantries such as St. Vincent de Paul pantries in Bend,
LaPine, Prineville and Redmond, Seventh Day Adventist Community Service Centers in Bend and

Hunger Prevention Coalition of Central Oregon
Redmond, the Salvation Army; Holy Trinity Care and Share program in Sun River, food kitchens where
meals are served including LaPine Community Kitchen, Bethlehem Inn, and COBRA; and
supplements to the Meals on Wheels program in LaPine. Altogether these agencies provide more than
50,000 meals a month through food boxes and meals served to residents of Central Oregon who need
assistance in keeping their families properly fed. We also know that there are other food distributors in the
region that do not apply for funds. This means that the need is even greater than these awesome
figures.
This year we increased the number of participating grocery stores which now include the
Newport Avenue Market, the Erickson-Sentry Stores in Bend, LaPine, Prineville and Redmond, Food
4 Less in Bend, Pet Express in Bend, the Sunriver Country Store and the Terrebonne Select Market.
Since the Help Fill Empty Plates program was initiated less than two years ago, the total amount
of money distributed as of April 16, 2005 is $64,202.90. We are continually encouraging more
markets to join this program.
THANKSGIVING DINNER PROVIDERS
A Community Thanksgiving Dinner was sponsored by the Coalition and the Salvation Army.
About 300 persons enjoyed the dinner, which received a feature article in the Bulletin.
THE COALITION SEEKS SOLUTIONS TO END HUNGER
- BY PROMOTING AWARENESS OF THE ISSUE
The Coalition used its bimonthly Newsletter to keep members informed about political events that impact
the status of those among us who do not have adequate access to enough food. Some examples of
