BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
February 15, 1979 - DAILY MINUTES
Chairman Shepard opened the meeting at 10:00 a.m. with all Commissioners present.
First item on the agenda was Charlie Plummer, Roadmaster, explaining an agreement
for construction of Ferguson Road-Tekampe Road section of Knott Road. This agreement
authorizes the State to go ahead with this work. The Commissioners said they would
look this over before signing it.
John Andersen of the Planning Dept. was next and told the Commissioners that the public
hearings on the Bend Urban Plan were set for March 19th and March 26th, and the Deschutes
County Plan was set for April 5th and April 17th. These hearings will be at the Bend
High School, Room C-10, from 7:30 to 11 p.m. with the approval of the Commissioners.
Commissioner Young moved to designate these dates for the Bend Urban Plan and Deschutes
County Plan to be held at Bend High School. Commissioner Paulson seconded it.
Commissioner Paulson voted aye, Commissioner Young voted aye, and Chairman Shepard
voted aye.
Polly Spofford, Pres. of the League of Women Voters, then presented the Commissioners
a letter from the league with recommendations for the formation of a citizens advisory
committee for the county jail to recommend, organize, and support a variety of services
and programs both paid and volunteer to assist prisoners in need of various kinds of
help. This letter was a position statement from the group, and they invited comments
and questions from the Commissioners. Chairman Shepard thanked the group and said
they would take this into consideration.
Moving on down the agenda, Larry Huettle of the Road Dept. with a complete listing of
all the County cars, their milages, and which ones should be auctioned off this year.
Commissioner Paulson suggested that perhaps Commissioner Young would look into this
matter and review all the cars before we take any further action. Commissioner Young
agreed to do this and report back.
Next on the agenda were members from the Central Oregon Housing Authority Board -
Bob Slausen, Charlie Chester, Grace Elder, and Clay Edwards. They came to explain to
the Commissioners HUD's new plan. They came up with a possible funding for $1.7 million
dollars for 44 new units for low-rent housing. The group needs the o.k. of the Board
of Commissioners and that was their purpose here today. It was explained that there
would be an Executive Director that maintains all the bookeeping and takes care of all
coordination of the project. Commissioner Paulson made a motion requesting the Central
Oregon Housing Authority Board to pursue the low-rent housing project through HUD, and
the Commissioners support this project. Chairman Shepard seconded it. Commissioner
Young voted aye, Commissioner Paulson voted aye, and Chairman Shepard voted aye.
Brent Lake of LCDC was next to speak and asked the Commissioners to meet with the
Overall Committee to see if all concerned concurred on the Comprehensive Plan up to
this point. He asked that a letter be written to Wes Kvarsten of LCDC if the Commissioners
and Overall Committee concurred, and the Commissioners agreed to this.
Bill Monroe, Planning Director, asked the Commissioners for their approval for a 60-day
period in which the Planning Director would be responsible for reviewing all site plans
and approving them or denying them. This would not take away any appeal rights from the
people. Commissioner Paulson moved to instruct the Planning Director to review all site
plans and approve or deny them between February 15 and April 15, 1979, and any appeals
or questions on such actions be referred to the Planning Commission; also any site plan
which the Planning Director feels would have such an impact on the County should be heard
by the Planning Commission. Commissioner Young seconded it. Commissi"er Paulson voted

aye, Commissioner Young voted aye, and Chairman Shepard voted aye. Bill then brought
up the fact that he would like to change his fee schedule and charge more for some
areas. Commissioner Young said he would like to have a comparison before taking any
action. All the Commissioner agreed on this, and Bill will take the matter up with
them at another meeting after some research.
Next Chairman Shepard presented a right-of-way easement between Deschutes County and
Pacific Power & Light Company for signature. Since County Counsel was not in attendance
today, the Commissioners held up signing this document until they have talked with him.
Next was approval of a refund of $5.00 to Consultants Northwest for a tape that did
not duplicate.
Next was a new liquor license application from the Pacific Rim Group, Inc. for
Thousand Trails, Inc. This is a package store and has been checked out by the
Sheriff's Dept. Commissioner Young made a motion to approve the new liquor license
application. Commissioner Paulson seconded it. Commissioner Young voted aye, Commissioner
Paulson voted aye, and Chairman Shepard voted aye.
Daryl from the Sheriff's Dept. asked the Commissioners if he could upgrade Mark McGilvray
to the dispatcher position vacated by Mary Henry. Commissioner Young moved to let Daryl
proceed with this. Commissioner Paulson seconded it and asked that a records clerk be
hired in the CETA position instead of another dispatcher. Commissioner Young voted aye,
Commissioner Paulson voted aye, and Chairman Shepard voted aye.
Commissioner Paulson explained to the Board that he would like to have 1,000 copies of
the Hearings Procedure printed up, and the Board agreed. He also suggested that we
take action on the Stevens v. Marr case next Courtday, February 21. The decision will
be given at that time. He presented a resolution on personnel which would halt merit
increases and reclassifications until the matter had been looked in to, and Commissioner
Young said he would not sign it with that in the resolution. There will be further
examination before signing the resolution. (Tape hung up and cannot get i_t to go past
