BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
September 11, 1979 - DAILY MINUTES
Chairman Shepard opened the meeting at 10:00 a.m. with all the Commissioners present.
The first matter to be discussed was that of Sunrise Village Sanitation District.
Chairman Shepard read the proposed order aloud to the Commission. The order was for
final hearing of Sunrise Village Sanitation District to be held on September 26, 1979
the final.name of which is to be Sunrise Sanitary District. There being no objection
Commissioner Paulson moved to approve the hearing date as set out in the proposed
order. Chairman Shepard seconded the motion. There being no discussion, Chairman
Shepard called for the vote. Commissioner Young voted aye. Commissioner Paulson
voted aye and Chairman Shepard voted aye. Motion carried.
Chairman Shepard then brought up a matter that was not on the agenda for this day.
Mr. & Mrs. Jerry Yahma . saw Chairman Shepard on the
preceding day and Chairman anepard advised the couple to come before the Board and dis-
cuss their problem. Mr. Yahma . told the Board of some land that he owns and
now would like to sell part of it. Before selling part of the land, he wishes to divide
the portion for sale. He started doing this last year some time in August. Based
on erroneous information he was told by the Planning Commission, Mr. Yahma's partition
has yet to be given final approval. He has been told by the Planning Commission
that he cannot divide the land he wishes to because of an ordinance on zoning. However,
Commissioner Paulson pointed out that he wished to have County Counsel review
the matter before any decision was made as to if the Yahma's could go ahead and
divide and sell their land. County Counsel was asked into the discussion. Commissioner
Paulson briefl;- told Lou what the situation was and how far they had gotten before
the need for Counsel arose. After a discussion with the- Yahma's and Commissioner
Paulson, Lou said that he felt that he would need further time to adequately tell
the Board how the Yalima's stood in site of the Ordinance. It was further discussed
that since the "Yahma'-s"- had acted in good faith and what they thought was right.
Commissioner Young moved to approve the Yahma's partition since they were given the
wrong information. Chairman Shepard seconded the motion. There being no further
discussion on the case the voted was asekd for. Commissioner Young--aye. Commissioner
Paulson--(I believe) no. Chairman Shepard--aye. Motion carried.
Mr. Dan Van Vactor was present with regards to the Motion and Order put forth for
George and Lois Wright, Meadow Crest Acres. Mr. Van Vactor gave each of the Commissioner's
a copy of the Motion and Order and read it into the order. Commissioner Paulson
moved that the date of paving the road on this plat be changed to July 15, 1980.
Chairman Shepard and Commissioner Young did not feel that this was necessary. After
very brief discussion, Commissioner Paulson moved to approve the Motion and and Order
for Meadow Crest Acres plat number 326. Commissioner Young seconded the motion.
Commissioner Paulson voted aye. Commissioner Young voted aye. Chairman Shepard voted
aye. Motion carried.
Next oil the agenda the matter of the Effects of the new zoning on the Assessor's Office
was discussed by Oscar Bratton. Mr. Bratton gave the council some history of his
office's operation. The farm usage properties were discussed. Mr. Bratton discussed
the possibility of pushing the farm usage properties farther past the urban areas.
Farm usage properties have become more and more involved to work with and how to tell
the dividing line between Farm Usage Properties and urban growth areas is becoming
a real problem. Mr. Bratton introduced Mr. Bob Greenstreet, Farm Appraiser for Deschutes
County. Mr. Greenstreet further discussed the problem of the zoning. Mr. Green-
street also talked of the problem of farm deferral. If there is as much deferral as
Mr. Greenstreet seems to feel that there is, then the County will be out a lot of
money. Chairman Shepard felt that this point needed to be talked about more explicitly
and set 1:00 on September 11, 1979 as a time to discuss the problem. Mr. Green-
street and Mr. Bratton both agreed to come back at 1:00.

A land partition was brought in by someone in the Planning Commission for the Board's
approval. The file number is 79-146. After some discussion, and all three Commissioners
had seen the above file and looked over the plat. Commissioner Young moved to approve
minor partition number 79-146. Commissioner Paulson seconded the motion. After
further discussion about signatures, the vote was taken. Commissioner Young voted aye;
Commissioner Paulson voted aye; Chairman Shepard voted aye. Motion carried.
Dan Van Vactor and Dave Jaqua wanted to discuss the Jepson Variance (V-79-7) and
Lower Bridge Estates (PP #555). Dan Van Vactor made a motion for a continuance in
the Jepson Variance matter. Mr. Van Vactor made the suggestion that a procedure
be adopted so that as little time as possible is taken to hear, deliberate, and
decide a case. Commissioner Paulson made the suggestion that Counsel pull that part
of PL9 which is being drafted and if that is appropriate to adopt by order for this
instance that of which is appropriate. Commissioner Paulson moved to continue the hearing
of the Jepson Variance (V-79-7) and Lower Bridge Estates (PP #555) to be heard again
within 10 days of the after the establishment of the review hearing process. Chairman
Shepard seconded the motion. There being no further discussion the vote was taken.
Commissioner Young--aye. Commissioner Paulson--aye. Chairman Shepard--aye. Motion
carried.
The Comprehensive Plan was discussed again with John Anderson present. The proposed
date for adoption of the plan is October 11, 1979. Jill (Assistant County Attorney)
was present for the discussion. Jill lead off the discussion by talking about a memo,
that she just gave to the Commissioners. It was decided to talk about that memo at
a later date. Chairman Shepard referred to the public hearing last night (9-10) that
a number of people had voiced the opinion that they had not had enough time to look over
the Plan and make a good decision. He also said that some people had said that they
had not had the opportunity to look over proposed ordinances and such. Chairman
Shepard thought that maybe since there was such restiveness among the people about the
Plan, the thought came to mind that maybe there should be another public hearing about
the plan. Chairman Shepard went over the schedule of when dates when certain departments
will have their outlines into the Board for reviewal. Chairman Shepard asked Jill
when she thought she would have her section finished. Jill felt that she would finish
revising the Ordinances by the end of this week. Before she gives the ordinances to
the typists, Jill stated that she would like to circulate them through the Planning
Commission to see how they will work with Planning. Jill thought that the Zoning
Ordinances would take her at least a week to get through. Commissioner Paulson felt
that Jill should sit down with the Commissioners to discuss the Zoning Ordinances and
so on,before typing.
A Borrow Order from-CETA came up before the Board. The order read without a stop
date on which the funds are to end. The Commission decided to approve the order with
a correction and an ending date.

suggested approval of that receipt. Approved.
Chairman Shepard brought up another one receipt # 4908 Alvin Schwin. Commissioner
Paulson suggested that this receipt be approved. Approved. Another minor land
partition came by the Commissioners. Demaris Acres. After looking over the plat and
the file, Commissioner Paulson moved to approve the plat #549. Chairman Shepard seconded

Lou noticed on:Demaris Acres that the wording 8-3ys that the roads will be both
public and private. Lou feels that it is inconsistent dedication on_t.he plat.
Lou felt that the people involved with the Acres are using the Board's decision to
create an argument that they do not have to bond completion as shown on the plat
Lou felt that it was irrelevant whether they are private or public; they are still
required to bond completion of the road. Commissioner Paulson agreed with Lou and
so moved that the Board take official action against recording this plat until
time as the matter of dedication is straightened out and the matter of whether they
should have to bond the completion of the involved cul-de-sacs. Commissioner Paulson
added in his motion that they be required to bond for completion, making the roads
all public or all private. Chairman Shepard seconded the motion. Lou made the suggestion
that they be required to eliminate the internal inconsistency in the dedication.
Commissioner Paulson voted aye. Chairman Shepard voted aye. Motion carried.
Chairman Shepard looked over a plat that Phil Paschke brought into the meeting.
After discussion of the plat, Commissioner Paulson moved to approve MP-79-154.
Chairman Shepard seconded the motion. Commissioner Paulson--aye. Chairman Shepard--
aye. Motion carried.
There being no further business this day, the meeting was adjourned.
