BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
March 14, 1979 - DAILY MINUTES
Chairman Shepard opened the meeting at 10:00 a.m. with Commissioner Young and
Chairman Shepard present. Commissioner Paulson was absent. First item on the
agenda were the bid openings for County grazing leases. There was no bid on parcel
1, parcel 2, or parcel 3. James A. Gregg bid 12 cents an acre on Section 27-80 acres,
parcel 4. William Prewitt bid 12 cents an acre on Section 21-280 acres, parcel 5.
Mr. Prewitt also made the comment that he felt the County was hurting both themselves
and the farmers and ranchers that want to lease this land by doing it this way. He
went on to explain that the farmers and ranchers put up fences, take care of the land,
and do a lot to help the County on these lands they lease. Commissioner Young wanted
it known that he had opposed the advertising of these lands but a motion was made and
passed to do this. Chairman Shepard asked by the people had not come in and talked to
the Board before this was done, and Mr. Prewitt said that because of articles in the
paper about "quiet" days, many of the people felt the Commissioners did not want to
be bothered so he had talked with County Counsel and Commissioner Young. Chairman
Shepard wanted it clear that he was always available and suggested that the Board
talk to the other people involved with the leasing of property to see if we can't
work out a mutual program for both. Bidding was closed, and Commissioner Young made
a motion that the bid of James Gregg of 12¢ per acre for the 4th parcel and Bill
Prewitt at 12~ per acre for the 5th parcel be accepted. Chairman Shepard seconded it.
Commissioner Young voted aye, and Chairman Shepard voted aye. A check will be written
for the correct amounts at 12~ per acre, and the parties will be billed at a later date
for the fire protection.
Oscar Bratton, Assessor's Office, had some turn-around documents which were given to
Lucy to check over and then be presented to the Board. He did present a turn-around
for a new hire, Jo Ann Baze. Commissioner Young made a motion to approve the hiring
of Jo Ann Baze subject to all the necessary paperwork. Chairman Shepard seconded it.
Commissioner Young voted aye, and Chairman Shepard voted aye. Oscar said his department
needed $2500.00 for supplies to carry them through this fiscal year. Lucy will look
into the matter to see which line item this will come out of. He was also interested
in trying to get his files put on microfilm so they can get some of their records out
of the office. Lucy explained that this should probably be figured in their budget this
year as to how much film they need, and they would need to find someone to run their
records. She went on to explain that we are behind in our filming now since the
Cashier must also run her department, as well as the microfilming.
Daryl Davidson of th.e Sheriff's Office was next. He explained the Sheriff's Dept.
wanted to purchase some equipment which would come out of Revenue Sharing, Public
Safety for $8100.00. The Commissioners clarified that this would be the last purchase
in this fiscal year and Daryl said it would be. Commissioner Young mvoed to authorize
the expenditure of $8100.00 for equipment. Chairman Shepard seconded it. Commissioner
Young voted aye, and Chairman Shepard voted aye.

Next on the agenda was County Counsel, Louis Dvorak. He explained there is no original
PL-5 in the Clerk's Office, and there is no way to get any true, certified copies for
court cases. This is a proceeding to take Exhibit A and have it recorded as an original.
It would then become the copy to certify other copies from. Louis had affidavits from
himself, Jan Cangie-Secretary, Lucy Venator-Administrative Assistant, and Rosemary
Patterson-County Clerk, showing that all the work had been done and the investigations
necessary had taken place. Mr. Dvorak said that he was applying for an order setting
a hearing to consider substituting Exhibit A in the Clerk's Office with the same force
and effect as though an original had been recorded on or about Dec. 2, 1971. Commissioner
Young made a motion to accept the application and set a hearing date for April 4.
Chairman Shepard seconded it. Commissioner Young voted aye, and Chairman Shepard
voted aye.
Mike Reid came in next with a letter that the Oregon Sailplane Council had drawn up
with the hope of getting Mr. Mellin to agree to letting their organization "soar"
from the Millican Airport. He explained that they had talked to Mr. Mellin and he
said he wanted nothing to do with them. They approached him with the idea of
perhaps realigning the runway so the gliders would take off and not even go close
to the store. He still would not agree to anything. Chairman Shepard said he wanted
to go out and look at this area and talk to Mr. Mellin before he made any decision on
this matter. Commissioner Young said he felt it would be all right if the Sailplane
Council wanted to realign the airstrip but agreed to wait until Chairman Shepard talked
with Mr. Mellin.
Next on the agenda was a final plat. Commissioner Young made a motion to approve the
final plat for Sisters Industrial Park, 1st Addition. Chairman Shepard seconded it.
Commissioner Young voted aye, and Chairman Shepard voted aye. Next the Commissioners
approved a Building refund for Betty Ahern of $42.64.
There being no further business this day, meeting was adjourned at 11:30 a.m.
