DESCHUTES COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
OCTOBER 6, 1981 - REGULAR MEETING
Chairman Paulson called the meeting to order at 10:00 A.M. Commissioner
Shepard and Commissioner Young were also present.
Amendments to Chairman Paulson noted that the agenda should be amended
the Agenda to include reconvention of the meeeting at 4:00 P.M. to
discuss the personnel rules with the Employees Council.
Commissioner Shepard had a matter regarding City street
planning. The amendments were approved with no objections.
Discussion re- Lou Selken, District Attorney, had given the Board a pro-
garding Des- posed draft gambling ordinance to be discussed at this
chutes County meeting. The Board had received a list of several suggest-
Gambling Ord ions from County Counsel relating to the proposed ordin-
inance ance. Mr. Selken explained that ORS 167.121 was the en-
abling statute allowing the ordinance. He said that the
statute was to allow social gaming, but he felt that the
gambling activity had gone beyond the scope of that con-
cept. He said that large amounts of money have been in-
volved and professional gamblers have been coming in.
He has been talking with Gene Goff in Redmond regarding
Redmond's gambling ordinance, and suggested that the
County and cities work toward adopting a common ordinance.
As it stands, the cities can adopt their own ordinances
apart from the county. He then went over the contents
of the ordinance. He suggested a $5.00 and three raise
limit. He suggested that separate rules be drawn up for
blackjack and poker since the games are so different.
It was proposed that games be open to police inspection
during all hours of operation. This would allow the
officer to take any cards or device back to the office
for a 24-hour period for inspection. Jim France, County
Sheriff, was present and said that it may be difficult
to conduct the investigation in that amount of time.
Mr. Selken also suggested that they provide a one-time
license for a group who wants to have a casino night or
something of that nature. Further lengthy discussion
ensued on the proposed changes. Dave Taylor (in the
audience) said that he felt that they should use chips
instead of cash, so that cash would not be lying out on
the table. Mike Zalk (in the audience) suggested that
they refer to the Washington State gambling laws. There
was some discussion on the penalty to be imposed on an
establishment found to be in violation of the ordinance.
After some further discussion, Mr. Selken said that.he
will review and amend the ordinance pursuant to this
discussion and bring it back before the Board for hearing.
Discussion re- Mike Racine, manager of a farm on Lower Bridge Road, had
garding Plan applied for a zone change. He explained that the appli-
Amendment cation fee for a zone change is #216. He was recently in
to the Planning Department and learned of a $720 comp
plan fee for amending the comp plan as well. He had spent
$1500 for a survey done by Century West on the property.
He felt that since he was providing the County with the
information contained in the survey he should not have to
pay for the Plan Amendment as well. There was some further
discussion on this. Mr. Andersen suggested that he could

wait until April of 1983 when they update the plan,
and that will not cost him. He said that this would
not be soon enough.. The Board did not grant his re-
quest that the Plan Amendment fee be waived.
Discussion re-
Mr. Isham said that there had been some question of the
garding LaPine
rental formula to use for the initial period. It was
Industrial Dev-suggested that it be taxes only for the initial years
elopment Com-
to get the businesses on their feet. Chairman Paulson
mittee's Lease
felt that they should run this as a non-profit organ-
ization. There was some further discussion on how to
formulate a lease that will make sure that this property
is used in the way in which it was intended. There was
some discussion of the sale of stocks. It was felt
that it should be five years of taxes only, and a re-
newal provision that will allow them to review the lease.
MOTION: YOUNG moved that they instruct County Counsel
to draw up a proposed lease on what they have
discussed.
It was added that in ten years it come under the same

garding City up at the Street Projects and Priorities meeting at their
Street Plan last meeting. This committee has been considering alter-
native routes in the north corridor, possible corridors
and possible routes have been considered. Their recomend-
ation will be submitted to the City Commission and the
County Commission and the State. They have had some con-
cern about construction occuring in the interim that will
adversely affect these plans. It was asked that the County
put a hold or moratorium on construction in '.areas that are
designated on this plan,for.a period of six months. Mr.
Isham said that legally they may have some problems with
d.1-moratorium. Chairman Paulson said that all they can do
is indicate that the County is interested in their project
and to proceed quickly in finalizing the plans. Commis-
sioner Shepard said that he would report back to the group
and express the Board's feelings.
