Minutes of Administrative Work Session Wednesday, August 14, 2006 Page 1 of 3 Pages 4. Other Items. The Board discussed scheduling of meetings, and decided that land use matters that are likely to take a significant amount of time out of a regular Wednesday morning meeting should be addressed separately. Measure 37 hearings, appeals, code amendments, decisions and other time-consuming land use issues will be handled on Monday morning at 10:00 a.m., every week except the third week of the month (based on the Wednesday). Mr. Kanner advised the Board that he would be requiring a second signature on all accounts payable vouchers. Department heads will be required to sign, unless they designate someone else; however, the department head will be held accountable for the expenditure. Mr. Kanner said that he wants to require more information on the agenda request form. He would like the information to be easily understood by anyone reviewing it. He is also revising the County's personnel policies, which are out of date and not consistent. This project is a top priority. Mark Pilliod updated the Board on the status of the Cyrus v. Central Electric Cooperative Measure 37 case. There have been two challenges, from the Cyrus family and from Thornburgh resort; these challenges have been consolidated. The parties disagree on the form of judgment from the courts. There will be a ruling on the Board decision as to whether there was enough evidence to justify the findings, and whether the legal rulings are correct. Briefs will be submitted, followed by oral arguments. The judge found that the original order had a flaw because the legal description was not entirely accurate; it was corrected by another order from the Board, but this changed the timeframe. Therefore, the amended order was not considered. The Board will be asked if it wants to consider a further decision. Commissioners Daly and Luke noted that they were misquoted in the recent Bulletin article. Being no further discussion, the meeting adjourned at 2:25 p.m. Minutes of Administrative Work Session Wednesday, August 14, 2006 Page 2 of 3 Pages DATED this 14th Day of August 2006 for the Deschutes County Board of Commissioners. his R.
