MOTION: COMMISSIONER PAULSON moved to approve the resolution in the matter of issuance of Industrial Development Revenue Bonds. CHAIRMAN YOUNG: Second. Commissioner Shepard stated that he had a problem with this development center in that it would add to the traffic on Hwy 97 which will probably be at level E in the very near future. Bob Lovlien stated that the commissioners would have to remember that Mr. Purcell has agreed to put up $250,000 to alleviate the problem, to have a study and to comply with the results of that study.

MOTION: COMMISSIONER PAULSON moved to approve this plat for signature. COMMISSIONER SHEPARD: Second. VOTE COMMISSIONER PAULSON: Aye. C01,1MISS IONER SHEPARD : Aye. CHAIRMAN YOUNG: Aye. The next item on the discussion was a discussion regarding the procedure of the signing of plats. Commissioner Paulson stated that he felt that plats should be signed in a public meeting rather than ran through the commissioners office. Chairman Young stated that he was a:tcommissioner to serve the people and he would continue to sign the plats provided that they were okay. Commissioner Paulson stated that he had talked to Craig Smith about this and he had stated that he would like to see the old policy of bringing the plats into a meeting adhered to. MOTION: COMMISSIONER PAULSON moved to set a policy that the commission only sign plats and partitions in a regularly scheduled meeting. COMMISSIONER SHEPARD: Second. Commissioner Shepard said he had a real problem in that he agreed with both of the other commissioners. Commissioner Shepard stated that he would like an opportunity to discuss this with Craig Smith and John Andersen to get their input to the situation. Craig was attending another meeting and could not be here today. Commissioner Shepard asked if the motion could be tabled until such time as Craig could attend. The next item on the agenda was a discussion regarding the budget with Commissioner Paulson. Commissioner Paulson said that on June 11, 1980 there was a budget meeting which he missed since he was in Seattle. Commissioner Paulson felt that an A ballot (if gone for in September) would not help the motion for a tax base 1 in November. He feels that if an A ballot should pass in September then that would almost certainly defeat a tax base election in November. Mike said that with an A ballot election, the budget board would have to reconvene and decide where the approx. $800,000 would be allocated. Mike said that this would also affect the publishing of the budget, and he needed some direction from the board as to how this was to be handled. Commissioner Paulson feels that it would be confusing to the public if they had too many elections. Mike Kment agreed with Commissioner Paulson in that it-would be confusing to the public. Commissioner Shepard stated that he had suggested going for an A ballot election to the budget board because he feels that every effort should be exerted to try and get some more money into the county. MOTION: COMMISSIONER PAULSON moved that the board have a tax base election at the general election in November, 1980. COMMISSIONER SHEPARD: Second. VOTE COMMISSIONER PAULSON: Aye. COMMISSIONER SHEPARD: Aye. CHAIRMAN YOUNG: Aye. MOTION: COMMISSIONER PAULSON moved that the board also have an election in September for passage of an A ballot for approximately $800,000. COMMISSIONER SHEPARD: Second. VOTE COMMISSIONER PAULSON: No., COMMISSIONER SHEPARD: Aye. CHAIRMAN YOUNG: Aye. The next item on the agenda for discussion was a matter with Lou Selken, Darrell Davidson and Pat Dugan. Mr. Dugan was in court. Mr. Selken stated that this had to do with the transporting of a material witness for a case that he was prosecuting. Mr. Selken stated that without this witness, the case was lost and would be dismissed. Mr. Selken stated that Mike had given approval for bringing up this witness but he wanted the commissioners to be aware of it for when they received the bill. The commissioners would have to pay to send a deputy down to New Mexico and back with the witness and the witness would have to be guarded because he has been asked to come to Bend on other occasions and has not done so. The Board gave their general concensus to allow Mr. Selken to make this expense. Next on the agenda was a slide presentation with Century West regarding the sewer system, problems, solutions with Art John and Ned Dempsey. They had to be allowed time to set up so another matter was taken up regarding the insurance of the Water Hemlock.

VOTE COMMISSIONER PAULSON: Aye. COMMISSIONER SHEPARD: Aye. CHAIRMAN YOUNG: Aye. Then came the slide presentation as listed above. Art Johnson gave a brief introduction to the presentation and then turned it over to Ned Dempsey.
