BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS DECEMBER 10, 1980 - BOARD MEETING Chairman Young called the meeting to order at 10:03 a.m. Commissioner Paulson was not in attendance at the meeting. The first item on the agenda was a discussion for an extension of the accumulation of overtime hours for the Road Department employees. Neil Hudson stated that as described in his memo to the Board, due to recent weather conditions, the road department crew have been accumulating quite a lot of overtime. Neil has requested that they be allowed to accumulate up to 100 hours of overtime rather than 40 hours. He also related that this would just be in the event that the winter brings storms, snow and ice. If the winter is mild the crew will not need to store up their accumulation of overtime hours. Neil stated that they will not take advantage of this situation. Chairman Young stated that he has enough confidence in the management that he believes this privilege would not be abused. MOTION: COMMISSIONER SHEPARD moved to approve the recommendation by Neil Hudson allowing the Road Department crew to accumulate up to 100 hours overtime in excessive hazardous winter conditions. CHAIRMAN YOUNG: Second. VOTE COMMISSIONER SHEPARD: AYE. CHAIRMAN YOUNG: AYE. The second item on the agenda was a discussion with John Glover regarding the authorization to send one Sanitarian to OSU for a. Soils Course. The cost for this course is approximately $800.00. This matter was brought before the Board at yesterday's meeting, but was postponed until today so that Mike Maier could investigate the budget and determine where this money could come from. Mike stated that the County had budgeted $8,000. for training and courses in general to be used between all County departments. He stated that there is about $3200. left of this money. John Glover then stated that he is anticipating some revenues to come in next week but that the problem is that they may possibly be pulling too much revenue. He stated that he must show that money taken in for revenues is being spent on services and supplies. Mike Maier related that money could be used for the course from the general fund for training and in the event John's revenues were high, the monies could be tranferred at the end of the 3rd quarter. Chairman Young felt this training should be allowed for one Sanitarian. MOTION: COMMISSIONER SHEPARD moved to allow the expenditure for the soils course at OSU for one Sanitarian per the request by John Glover. CHAIRMAN YOUNG: Second. VOTE COMMISSIONER SHEPARD: AYE. CHAIRMAN YOUNG: AYE. The next item on the agenda was a discussion on AOC dues. Chairman Young stated that at a recent AOC Conference in Eugene the Board of Directors based an addition to the by-laws which would allow them to reduce or or waive dues for County's in distress situations. He feels that this County is in a situation to at least reduce the dues for this year. Mike Maier, refering to the budget printout, stated that it might be a possibility to pay half of the AOC dues with the possibility that if a budget levy is passed the remainder could be paid out of the budget for 1981 fiscalyear. Commissioner Shepard questioned why one half figure was used and not 1/3 or 2/3. Mike 2 one half was figured based on what the budget carries now, and if enough revenues would come in we. could pay the remainder at a later date. There was a general discussion in regards to benefits of belonging to the AOC and that one of them was insurance.coverage for the County. Commissioner Shepard stated that he would not want to jeopardize the county from their insurance benefits. Mike stated that he didn't believe that a 1/2 payment at this time would jeopardize their membership. Chairman Young stated that he will be attending a meeting as a member on the Board of Directors for AOC on Monday, December 15, and he will talk with them and see what compromises can be made. This was the concensus of the Board that Chairman Young will bring up this matter at.the meeting next Monday and discuss with AOC Board just what can be done for Deschutes County in regards to their annual dues. At this time four Temporary Service Agreements were presented to the Board for the temporary help to complete the mobile home subdivision study. Rick Isham then stated that when they are hired, even temporarily, they must be added to the County's workman's compensation program for the County's protection. The four Temporary Service Contracts are for George Cress, Phil Paschke, Marcia Medler, and Barbara Taylor. John Andersen stated that all four of these people are familiar with the study areas and that three of them have been previously employed with the County Planning Department. A matter relating directly to these contracts is Order #80-240 in the matter of raising mobile home fees to $110 dollars and charging of surface mining site plan fees at $300. There had been a short discussion on this order at yesterday's meeting, which was postponed until further information on the site plan fee was obtained. John Andersen stated that they are trying to keep the fees close to the actual work being done for the site plans and that he hopes in the future the State will turn the process of reclamation over to the County so that the $300. fee will not be duplicated with the County and State. MOTION: COMMISSIONER SHEPARD moved to approve Order #80-240 in the matter of the $300 site plan fee for surface mining and raising mobile home fees $30.00 to total $110. for the placement application for mobiles. CHAIRMAN YOUNG: Second. VOTE COMMISSIONER SHEPARD: AYE. CHAIRMAN YOUNG: AYE. It was also noted before the motion was made that the Board had approved orally on November 13, 1980, in the absence of Chairman Young, the charging of the site plan fees for surface mining. MOTION: COMMISSIONER SHEPARD moved to approve the four Temporary Service Agreements for George Cress, Philip Paschke, Marcia Medler and Barbara Taylor to complete the mobile home subdivision study. CHAIRMAN YOUNG: Second. VOTE::: COMMISSIONER SHEPARD: AYE. CHAIRMAN YOUNG: AYE. At this time Dave Jaqua was present to comment on a theory in the planning area of the County. Dave had gone before the Hearings Officer the last night and it was indicated that as a result of Planning Staff, information that there was a potential that his proposed subdivision application would be rejected. If this was so, Dave has suggested that there be some study relating to the agricultural chapter on the plan that the County would review for developing a program for dealing with marginal agricultural lands. Also that the County would seek possible solutions to downzoning within the County. Dave stated that he did not expect an answer at this time, but wanted to mention this matter to the Board so that they may think about this possibility. Chairman Young thanked Dave for this information and told him that the Board would look into Y 3 Being no further business, the meeting was adjourned. (Absent) ROBERT C.
