BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
October 3, 1979 - CO.URTDAY_.MINUTES
Chairman Shepard opened the meeting of October 3, 1979 at 10:00 a.m. with all
Commissioners present. Also present was Mr. Howard Rankin, Mr. Howard Kraus
both for Seventh Mountain; Mr. Charlie Plummer for the Neff Road discussion
and Mr. Tom Gilnor for the Neff Road discussion. The first item on the agenda
was the annexation of the Rural Fire Protection District #2 final hearing.
Chairman Shepard read the order into the record. Commissioner Paulson moved
to approve the order. Commissioner Young seconded the motion. Commissioner
Paulson--aye. Commissioner Young--aye. Chairman Shepard--aye. Motion carried.
Next on the agenda was consideration for adoption--ordinance 203.10, regulating
alarm equipment, alarm equipment supplies, alarm monitoring services, and
security personnel. Chairman Shepard read the ordinance into the record by
title. Commissioner Paulson asked if someone from the Sheriff's department should
be present at the reading. Commissioner Young stated that this ordinance would
need two readings. Commissioner Young stated that the record should show that
the first reading of this ordinance was held on October 3, 1979 and the second
one would be October 17, 1979. Lou Dvorak said that the Sheriff's office had
asked for the ordinance to be written and now it is to be double-checked if
the Sheriff's department knows of the ordinance. Commissioner Paulson asked
Mr. Dvorak if alarm suppliers, city police etc. were notified that this ordinance
was written. Mr. Dvorak said that he was not aware that these persons had been
notified. It was left with the secretary to double-check and send copies to
the city police department, the Sunriver police department:1and to all major alarm
suppliers in the County.
Next item taken off the::agenda was consideration for adoption Amendment to
Ordinance PL-1. Mr. Dvorak said that this version of PL-1 varies from the
original PL-1 in that this ordinance allows County Counsel to be the advisory
source of information for the Planning Commission rather than the District
Attorney. This version also sets forth that a planning commission member may
hold office for 2 consecutive terms (one term being 2 years) then he must wait
4 years before he can again be qualified to return to the Commission. Commissioner
Paulson said he would go so far as to make the limit of years a member may hold
office up to six years(3 terms). Commissioner,Paulson}did not think that there
should be any limitation as,he believes,experience3s" the best Teacher. That
change will be made in the ordinance. The second reading will be October 17, 1979.
Next on the agenda was a Declaration of Dedication of a road to the county.
Chairman Shepard read the document into the record as well as the legal description
of the property to be dedicated. Commissioner Young moved to accept the dedication
of the designated road to be a public road. Commissioner Paulson seconded the
motion. Commissioner Paulson asked what is the purpose of this dedication. The
purpose of this dedication is to provide access as shown on the map. Commissioner
Young--aye. Commissioner Paulson--aye. Chairman Shepard--aye. Motion carried.
Lou Dvorak brought up a matter involving a zone change from A-1 Exclusive
Agricultural to AR-1 Exclusive Agricultural UBC. This order was passed by the
Board on October 2, 1979. Lou advised the Board that he had wrongly advised them
as to where certain properties discussed were located and asked the Board to
recind that order. Commissioner Young moved to rescind the order. Commissioner
Paulson seconded the motion. Commissioner Young--aye. Commissioner Paulson--
aye. Chairman Shepard--aye. Motion carried.

Next on the agenda was a matter concerning Reid School. An order had been passed
by the Board that had a property line error in it. After discussing the correction,
Commissioner Young moved that the Board approve hte corrected order of acceptance
to include the area deleted in the first order. Commissioner Shepard seconded
the motion. Commissioner Young--aye. Commissioner Paulson--aye. Chairman Shepard--
aye. Motion carried.
Another matter brought up was in the matter of a right-of-way easement for
CENTRAL ELECTRIC COOPERATIVE, INC. Commissioner Paulson moved for approval
of the easement. Commissioner Young seconded the motion. Commissioner
Paulson--aye. Commissioner Young--aye. Chairman Shepard--aye. Motion carried.
Commissioner Paulson read the right-of-way easement into the record.
Next on the agenda was Neff Road. Charles Plummer and Tom Gilnor were present
to discuss the item. It was moved by Commissioner Young to remove
his standing motion from the table. The motion was as follows: The property
that Mr. Fancher gave to the county for the purpose of straightening and improving
Neff Road, be returned to him, as it is not going to be used by the County.
Chairman Shepard went through a brief history of the discussions previously had.
After disucssion, Chairman Shepard asked Tom Gilnor if the bike lanes monies
would be endangered by not using this property. Tom Gilnor did not believe that
the monies would be endangered. Commissioner Paulson later seconded the motin
of Commissioner Young. Commissioner Young--aye. Commissioner Paulson--aye.
Chairman Shepard--no. Motion carried. Lou Dvorak commented that he did not know
if it was legal to give back land that had been given to the County. He said
that a reconveyance agreement would have to be drawn up. He said that he would
pursue this document. He also stated that the Board's decision should have been
founded on the basis of some findings.
Commissioner Paulson expressed consideration for people who write to the
Commissioners for answers or to express their opinions and these people never
receive any kind of reaction from the Commissioners. He suggested that a form
letter be drawn up and sent to these people such as:"We appreciate you taking
the time to write to us and we are currently working on this problem, etc."
Commissioner Young feels that this type of letter would be most appropriate.
The idea of putting such a letter into the secretary's typewriter(which has a
small memory) was toyed with. Lou Dvorak said that his typewriter has a much
larger memory and would probably be more practical. No action was taken.
Commissioner Paulson also brought up another matter of possibly having public
meetings so that all members of the staff could come in and talk to the Commissioners
and review problems or just to talk about different ideas. There wasn't much
discussion on that.
Chairman Shepard "threw" out the idea onto the floor for consideration the prospect
of having the personnnel of different departments come to talk with the Board
without the Department Heads. Charlie Plummer was present at the meeting so
Chairman Shepard asked him what he thought of that idea. Mr. Plummer did not feel
that it was right for personnel to go to the Board with personnel problems without
consulting the department head first to see if he could or would do anything
about the problem. No action was taken on this matter either.
Commissioner Paulson had another matter to bring up regarding the Econimic
Analysis Committee. Mr. Paulson said that it had been stated by quite a few
members of the committee that Representative Tom Throop be appointed to the
Committee. Chairman Shepard asked why the committee needed another member.
Commissioner Paulson said that if Representative Throop were made part of the
Committee it would strengthen state links to the group and connections that Mr.
Throop has would help financially. Chairman Shepard moved to appoint
Mr. Throop to the Committee. Commissioner Paulson seconded the motion. Commissioner
Young--abstain. Commissioner Paulson--aye. Chairman Shepard--aye. Motion
carried.
There being no further business this day, the meeting was adjourned.
