Chairman Shepard opened the meeting at 10:00 a.m. with all Commissioners present.
First item on the agenda was a Fee Schedule Change for the Planning Department.
Bill Monroe, Planning Director, presented the Commissioners with figures to substantiate
his asking for the raise in fees. This is an 80% increase in fees. Commissioner
Paulson made a motion to accept fee schedule "B" for the charges to be levied by
the Planning Department to take effect immediately. Chairman Shepard seconded it.
Commissioner Young said that he was definintely opposed to this much of a raise in
fees. He commented that all these raises do is add to inflation. Commissioner Paulson
said he would withdraw his motion and make another one if the problem could be settled.
Chairman Shepard would not allow the motion to be withdrawn. Commissioner Young said
he would go along with a 20% raise but that was all. The question was called for.
Commissioner Paulson voted aye, Chairman Shepard voted aye, and Commissioner Young voted
NO. Motion was carried.
John Hossick brought up the need to have a hearing for the Phase II Planning Area
Boundary. He said he and Louis Dvorak had discussed the matter and asked the Commissioners
to set a date, and John explained that this will be a County hearing only. The
Commissioners agreed to set the date for the hearing on April 19, 1979, at 7:30 p.m.
in the Courthouse Annex, Room A.
Gene Venn, Hearings Officer, was next and presented a memorandum to the Commissioners
asking for a judicial review of the Attorney General's opinion issued February 27, 1979
on Lane Knolls. Gene sent on to explain that he is trying to treat each situation
separately and allowed a subdivision in Sunriver that was to be conditional, seasonal,
and recreational. There was much criticism on this, and Gene would like to request
a judicial review of his actions or have the Attorney General review the opinion
interpreting Goal #11. The Commissioners said the school board was having a meeting
and were asking for an opinion also and said they would try to find out what went on
and if they got an opinion. Jim Morrison said the school board will be presented with
the committee's report on the school plan for the immediate and five-year range plan
at the meeting this evening.
Chairman Shepard presented Draft #2 on the Development Impact, which takes in all areas -
schools, roads, and fire departments are included. Commissioner Paulson made a motion
to adopt Draft #2 in "spirit" with some clarifications. Commissioner Young seconded
it. Commissioner Paulson voted aye, Commissioner Young voted aye, and Chairman Shepard
voted aye.
Next on the agenda was Louis Dvorak, County Counsel, with a letter to Charles Porter
regarding Hickson et al v. Deschutes County. Louis said he felt the claim made by
Hickson et al should be denied. Commissioner Paulson made a motion to authorize
Louis Dvorak to send the letter denying the claim as outlined by Mr. Porter. Commissioner
Young seconded it. Commissioner Paulson voted aye, Commissioner Young voted aye, and
Chairman Shepard voted aye.

Chairman Shepard brought several things up including the Forest Service Road 1808.
Nothing has been done, and he was also interested in having a meeting to see if
there could be an area set up for target practice. There is an area across the road
in an old quarry, and Vince Genna said they would possibly be interested. Chairman
Shepard said he would liketo arrange a meeting between the Forest Service, Parks &
Rec., and the Commissioners. He mentioned the fact that we had not set a night for
the regular Commissioners night meeting this month. He was also concerned that we
have a meeting with the farmers and ranchers to try and work out something to get our
land leased. He said he would try to get them to come in to a 10:00 o'clock meeting
and get this problem settled. He brought up the BLM land trades and said the Commissioners
were going to go and look at these lands but have not. He suggested that the urgent one
might be the land trade in LaPine. Commissioner Young suggested that the BLM might
agree to break out LaPine and we could pick out some parcels for the trade. Another
subject brought up by Chairman Shepard was the Tamarack School. Tom DelNaro said that
the school could receive some matching funds from the Federal Government but they need
to have projects for the kids. Chairman Shepard suggested the Tetherow Bridge area.
Perhaps the kids could maintain this area and turn it into a park area. Commissioner
Young said he would agree only if it would not cause the present residents any
harrassment.
Commissioner Young said he had been surveying the parking lot for three weeks and had
some suggestions to make. He would like to take the 1972 Maverick and turn it over to
the Sheriff's office for serving civil papers. The Vega, E-128778, and Vega, E-12870
could be put into the pool. These cars are now assigned to the Assessor's Office and
at 2 p.m. in the afternoon every day there was an availability of 5 Assessor's cars.
If these two Vegas were put into the pool, they would still be available if the
Assessor's did not have any other cars available. He wanted to give the 75 Chev. 2-ton
to the Courthouse for mail pickup. The Commissioners agreed and told Commissioner
Young to proceed.
A question was brought up as to what the City-County Road Improvement Committee was.
It was explained by Chairman Shepard that it was formerly the Gas-Tax Committee, and
he asked that Jack DeFoe be appointed to the Committee. Commissioner Paulson made a
motion to appoint Jack Defoe from LaPine to the Committee. Commissioner Young seconded
it. Commissioner Paulson voted aye, Commissioner Young voted aye, and Chairman Shepard
voted aye.
Commissioner Paulson announced that next Monday and Tuesday the County Commissioners
will be interviewing the candidates for the Director of Administrative Services position.
It was agreed to cancel the Commissioners' regular Tuesday meeting because of these
interviews.
There being no further business this day, meeting was adjourned at 11:50 a.m.
