Commissioner Paulson stated that as far as he knew, Mr. Coats would be coming: to the meeting as he had called Commissioner Paulson with some questions on the surface mining area that he has and the county's require- ment of the site plan. Commissioner Paulson stated that the meeting was set at his request and with his approval. It was decided to wait until Mr. Coats arrived to begin the discussion. Chairman Young announced that there wouldn't be a meeting on Thursday, as the commissioners would be in Burns attending an AOC district meeting. It was after 10:20 a.m. so Chairman Young decided to open the dis- cussion of the mine near Tumalo Rim Subdivision. There were some homeowners present. Commissioner Paulson asked the chairman if he could call Mr. Coats to see if he remembered the meeting and if he was coming. Chairman Young said fine with him. As Howard Kraus was present, Chairman Young said that they would deal with him. Chairman Young adjourned the meeting from regular session to reconvene as the Board of Directors for the Inn of the Seventh Mountain. The regular meeting then reconvened. Bob Coats' secretary called the office and said that Bob would not be able to make it to the meeting until 11:00 a.m. Chairman Young stated that the discussion would be opened as there were people present from Tumalo Rim who wanted to be heard. Chairman Young stated that the people pre- sent had some problems with the hours of operation that Mr. Coats is keeping. The work starts at 5:00 a.m. and keeps right on going until 11:00 p.m.. Chairman Young wanted to find out from the Planning Department just what the problem was and what they had done. John Andersen, Interim Planning Director stated that the operation had been red-tagged (had a stop work order put on) because he has not filed a site plan with the department. Mr. Andersen stated that the department has had a number of discussion with Mr. Coats re- 2 garding the necessity of having the site plan filed with the depart- ment. Mr. Andersen stated that as he understood Mr. Coats, Mr. Coats feels that he disagrees with that requirement and therefore, he did not comply with it. Mr. Andersen asked Margaret Hayden, Corrections Officer, to give more detail about the case. Commissioner Paulson asked what time the red-tagging had been done. Margaret said that at approximately 2:30 p.m. it was done. A resident stated that right after the county vehicles were out of sight, operations were re- sumed. Lou Dvorak read from the ordinance regarding surface mining operations in-which it stated that a site plan is not required for old sites but just new ones and the site that he is currently working is an old site but as John Andersen explained it is that the operations have expanded and there is a new use. Jane Carpenter, a resident of Tumalo Rim stated that her main concern was the hours of operation--they start so early and work so late and she also stated that Mr. Coats recently called one neighbor up who complained that he would work that site for 20 years if he felt like it. There had been a noise reading done at the site by Bob Danko df the DEQ. At the time of the testing, Mr. Coats allowed only one machine to operate. After the testing was finished, several machines were run, Kathy Brown, also of Tumalo Rim, said that her concern was the hours worked and also what the completion date would be. Terry Knaus, also of Tumalo Rim, stated that what the residents wanted was to know the completion date and possibly to modify the hours of operation. He'.had tried to contact Mr. Coats several times and was promised several times that something would be done to alleviate some of the noise and a completion date set. He can no longer get ahold of Mr. Coats and has subsequently, dropped the matter. Mr. Knaus asked when a stop work order goes into effect--Mr. Andersen said immediately but the department has to wait 15 days before they can cite him into court. Mrs. Carpenter stated that Mr. Coats was working this morning before she came into this meeting. Mr. Coats still had not arrived and would not be here until 11:15 a.m. so as Commissioner Paulson had another engagement, the discussion was dis- continued after the neighbors had discussed the matter. There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned. BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS ALBERT A. YOUNG air CLAY C. SHEPARD, Commissioner ROBERT C.-PAULSON, JR., C is 'oner / jo 3
