BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
March 9, 1979 - DAILY MINUTES
Chairman Shepard opened the meeting at 10:00 a.m. with all Commissioners present.
First item on the agenda was an order the the establishment of a special reserve
fund No. 2 for Boyd Acres Road. Commissioner Young moved for adoption of this order,
and Commissioner Paulson seconded it. Commissioner Young voted aye, Commissioner
Paulson voted aye, and Chairman Shepard voted aye.
Dorothy Kale was next. She presented the Commissioners a letter showing how much
the Historical Society could bid for the Reed School package. She said they had
received a call that Reed School would almost certainly be placed on the roster for
preservation as a Historical Site. The Commissioners thanked her and told her they
were waiting for an appraisal from the Assessor's Office and this would all go as one
bid.
Carol Well, Planning Dept., was next. She explained to the Commissioners that the
Economic Analysis Committee had a meeting yesterday and there were some complaints as
to the make up of the committee members. She asked that this committee be dissolved
and a new one formed that was better divided. Commissioner Young and Chairman Shepard
both agreed that they would be reluctant to dissolve the committee and start over.
Commissioner Paulson made a motion that the committee be dissolved and reconstitute
it to include the majority on here or the majority plus others. There was no second.
Commissioner Paulson made another motion to add up to 3 other people to the committee
to help balance the existing committee. Commissioner Young seconded it. Commissioner
Young voted aye, Commissioner Paulson voted aye, and Chairman Shepard voted aye.
Commissioner Paulson then made a motion to appoint Gregg Lien and Vern McIntosh to
the Economic Analysis Committee. Commissioner Young seconded it. Commissioner Paulson
voted aye, Commissioner Young voted aye, and Chairman Shepard voted aye.
Commissioner Paulson brought up the fact that he felt the Planning Commission should
have a two thirds vote majority on issues before them instead of the 50%. Both of the
other Commissioners agreed that this might be a good idea, and Commissioner Paulson said
he would call the Planning Commission members to see how they felt about this.
Commissioner Paulson said he would like to see the County take an attitudinal survey
of the citizens of the community. The cost would be from 410,000 to $15,000 and the
County would have to come up with $5,000. Both Chairman Shepard and Commissioner Young
felt we should look into this matter further before making any kind of decision.
Commissioner Paulson said we could put it out to bid and then either approve or deny it.
Oscar Bratton, Assessor's Office, explained to the Board that one of their cars had
been totaled last month, and they had recieved a check for $675.10. He wondered if
they could apply this to getting a new car or if it went into the General Fund. The
Board told him to give the check to Helen Rastovich. Commissioner Young explained
that he had been taking a survey of all County cars and might be using 2 of their cars
in our pool for short trips since we are short of cars. Oscar then asked if he could
extend the date of vacation for Bill Plath and Terry Sears since they are so busy in
his office at this time. Their vacation is running over the time they should take it,
and they can't get off now. Commissioner Paulson made a motion to allow Bill and Terry
to extend their vacation times up until September 1, 1979. Chairman Shepard seconded
it. Commissioner Young voted aye, Commissioner Paulson voted aye, and Chairman Shepard
voted aye. Oscar brought up the fact that House Bill 2540 proposes a new tax statement
to be sent out and the people would have to file to get their 30$ homeowners refund if
it passes. This would mean added expense in their office if that happens. Chairman
Shepard said that he felt we didn't have to be concerned with this as the bill had a
long way to go before being accepted and might not make it.

Bill Monroe, Planning Dept., then presented two orders for the Commissioners that
would transfer funds into some low categories in the Planning budget. Helen
Rastovich did these orders, and Lucy will check them to see they are in order.
Commissioner Young brought up the fact that a Wally Bluden had called him and complained
that a school bus is tearing up a public road he lives on and keeps graded. He said
he would call Dr. Reinke at the school and register this complaint. It is on Dustin Road.
Chairman Shepard brought up House Bill 2571 which is intended to place more strict
controls on hazardous radio active materials throughout the State. He explained that
the cities would have to be given notice of these materials coming through if this bill
passed, and he was in favor of it and had sent one letter in to that effect. Commissioner
Paulson said he was in agreement, and Commissioner Young said that he would have to look
it over more before making a decision. Commissioner Paulson made a motion to endorse
this bill. Chairman Shepard seconded it. Commissioner Paulson voted aye, Chairman
Shepard voted aye, and Commissioner Young ABSTAINED, with reservations.

Commissioner Young voted aye, Commissioner Paulson voted aye, and Chairman Shepard
voted aye. Commissioner Paulson then made a motion to approve appropriation transfer

Commissioner Paulson voted aye, Commissioner Young voted aye, and Chairman Shepard voted
aye.
Commissioner brought up the P.A. system in Room A and said he would like to have it
fixed. Commissioner Young agreed, and Chairman Shepard said he felt it could wait
until after budget time. Commi-ssioner Paulson said he could put it out for bid and
see what figures we get and then decide.
There being no further business this day, meeting was recessed at 11:55 a.m.
