BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS August 30, 1979 - DAILY MINUTES Chairman Shepard opened the meeting at 10:00 a.m. with all Commissioners present. The first matter on the agenda was Electric Motor & Supply Company landscaping violations, regarding Site Plan 47892. The plan was approved July 11, 1978, and nothing has been done as far as landscaping and paving. There is a bond on the site plan. Commissioner Young moved that we allow another forty-five days from this date for compliance with the plan or the County will exercise the bond. Com- missioner Paulson seconded it. Commissioner Paulson voted aye. Commissioner Young voted aye. Chairman Shepard voted aye. Next was Site Plan 478-33, Awful Brothers - Landscaping Violations. Mr. Copenhaver was advised on April 11 of an official thirty-day notice to complete site plan com- pliance. It has not been accomplished. Mr. Copenhaver explained there is no prob- lem - that it will be done right away, and that it has been started this morning. Commissioner Young moved that Mr. Copenhaver be allowed to finish the project in twenty days from this date, and if it is not done in twenty days, the agreement will be enforced. Chairman Shepard seconded it. It is the same plan that was approved, but it is reduced by 2/3 by the Highway Department. Commissioner Paulson suggested that Bruce Knowlton (Planning Department) sit down with Mr. Copenhaver and discuss what he plans to do. Commissioner Young voted aye. Commissioner Paulson voted aye. Chairman Shepard voted aye. Next on the agenda was the Comprehensive Plan, presented by Brian and John of the Planning Department. They came to discuss the exceptions statements they are pre- paring. To explain an exception statement - if a county isn't going to be able to meet stringent requirements of the LCDC goals, you have to identify to LCDC those lands which are not going to meet the requirements of those goals and to explain why the county is not going to be able to meet the requirements of those goals on those particular lands. They hope to have their document ready for public review September S. The reason the exception process was first established was so you could justify areas outside of urban areas that you might need for something else. You are able to identify lands that are committed and those lands, then, can be excepted from the goal. They have to make a determination as to which areas will and which areas won't be committed to development. If it is not com- mitted, they will put an exclusive farm use zone on it. If it is committed, they will zone it for rural residential or multiple use agricultural. There will be a public hearing on September 10. Commissioner Paulson moved that we proceed as recommended by the Planning Staff in areas predominantly committed, meaning with houses currently on them, and '-where 320 acres or more are platted in small parcels,:they be given MUA status, all the other asindicated by the staff "today. be given an EFU status with whatever appropriate acreage minimum is. Chairman Shepard seconded the motion. Commissioner Young expressed unhappiness with the plan. Commissioner Young sees a trend to possibly even take some of this area that is already committed and try to change the commitment on it. The acreages are too large so that nobody can afford them. Chairman Shepard said he is not totally satisfied with it either. He would have trouble putting it together in a way that would improve it. He asked Commissioner Young what he would do to improve the plan. Commissioner Young explained that he is for the individual who owns his land being able to use his land as he sees fit as long as he doesn't interfere with his neigh- bor. He doesn't feel that we need socialism in this country - he is opposed to it. "f BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS August 30, 1979 - DAILY MINUTES Page 2 He feels individual rights are no longer considered. Commissioner Paulson sug- gested that the bottom line of what Commissioner Young was saying is to have no planning at all. Commissioner Young denied that. Commissioner Young wants a plan that complies with Goal #1 and Goal #10 (citizen involvement And housing,-which he feels have been ignored; and affordable housing, which he feels has been basically ignored because the other two Commissioners have repeatedly asked for review on projects that would provide affordable housing). Commissioner Paulson made a comment on Goals 1 and 10. He explained that we have had a lot of input from citizens and the difficulty is that there are three different sides - those that want a tremendous amount of planning, those that are in the middle and those that don't want any at all. He feels the difficult part is deciding how to compromise. He says we are listening to them and have been for a long time. In terms of af- fordable housing, you'll never have housing ten miles out of town that is cheaper than the housing in town. He went on to say, if we want affordable housing, we do follow Goal 10 and we do as LCDC says and we concentrate on urban areas, which is what we are attempting to do. Commissioner Paulson voted aye. Commissioner Young voted no and Chairman Shepard voted aye. Lou Dvorak explained to the Board that he may have advised the Board wrongly about Mountain High. Mr. Lovlien (representing J. L. Ward) called him yesterday and sent him a note that stated he had been reviewing the tapes of the July 11 meeting re- garding the reserve strips, and he took exception to Lou's comment that J. L. Ward Construction had allowed their first plats of Mountain High and Mountain High First Edition to expire in order to avoid building Sunnyside Boulevard. He wanted to set the record straight that he had no idea why they let their first platsexpire, and any statement he made to that effect was pure speculation. He presented a letter dated today to Mr. Lovlien explaining this matter. Next was an appeal filed by mistake. #12709, Gaines Eddy, Sizemore Road, Bend, Oregon. Reason for refund, $100 appeal filed by mistake. Receipt 414815, $50. Ellison Smith decided to place single wide mobile home in- stead of double wide, therefore need to obtain a new permit. Refund of taxes. Commissioner Shepard read the order. Helen Ras.tovich, tax col- lector for Delbert R. Turner, 61785 Ten.barr Road, Bend, Oregon 97701. An acreage change was made decreasing the value, thus creating an overpay. Refund amount - $102.25. Commissioner Young moved that we approve the order. Commissioner Paulson seconded it. Commissioner Paulson voted aye. Commissioner Young voted aye. Chair- man Shepard voted aye. Commissioner Paulson brought up two meetings. One, district meeting of, AOC at Lakeview on the 20th of September. Nov. 14-16 State AOC Meeting. Lou Dvorak read a letter he prepared to send to R. Rogerson, re. Redmond Auto Wrecking Yard, informing him of the Board's decisions in his case. He suggested that he arrange with the Planning Department to get site plan approval for his wrecking yard as soon as the zoning is changed. The letter was approved and signed.

Lou suggested that when he presents his expense listings required by a letter from the Board yesterday, the expenses be audited.
