Lawrence Erwin, representing the owner of Plateau Estates, was present, but did not submit any additional testimony at this time. Chairman Paulson opened the public hearing. Pat Giesler and Dan VanVactor representing Odin Crest Estates were present. Mr. VanVactor saidr;that he felt that it would be beneficial to the County road system if as many roads as possible were brought up to consistent standards, and that this was an opportunity to upgrade part of the road system. He said that if the County were named in any en- suing litigation, they would assume the responsibility for protecting the County in any way necessary. Rick Isham, County Counsel, said that with respect to the question of benefit, Bond Counsel is confident that there is in fact a benefit to the property owners in Plateau Estates and that any assessment against that property would not be overturned by a court. He said that if litigation were filed, this would have to be a separate bond issue, be- cause they are required to sign a non-litigation certi- ficate, insuring that no litigation has been filed against the bond. By putting these on separate issues, it will create a greater expense to the property owners. He said that the easiest approach would be to drop the LID or send it back to the engineer for a new engineer's report. There was some further discussion between the Board members and County Counsel. Chairman Paulson then called for fur- ther testimony. Mr. Erwin said that this subdivision had been approved with roads at the present standards, and if the Board does nothing on this, the LID will take place. Mr. VanVactor noted that the roads in Plateau Estates would have the benefit of being paved, rather than dirt. r- Chairman Paulson called the meeting to order at 10:00 a.m. Commissioner Shepard and Commissioner Young were also in attendance.

After some further discussion, Mr. VanVactor said that he wanted to make sure that Odin :Crest did not lose the LID in order to save Plateau Estates from having to participate. He siad that their major inter- est was in at least seeing that Odin Crest be allowed to proceed. He suggested that this go back to the en- gineer and the surveyor to judge the equitability of the assessments. There was some further discussion.
