DESCHUTES COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
OCTOBER 27, 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 Item #4 on the agenda will be cancelled. The amendment
the Agenda was approved.
Discussion Keith Clark and Carol Wells Connell were here to discuss
with Represen- the landmarks criteria that has been worked up by the
tatives of 'Commission. They have chosen three landmarks from a list
County Land- of over 100 in the area to test these tentative criteria
marks Commis- with. These three sites are: the old railroad depot on
sion regarding Division Street, the O'Kane Building, and the water and
current act- power building on the river. They will eventually use
ivities the criteria as a basis for evaluating the list of over
100 historical sites in the area. They are asking the
Board to examine these criteria and make any suggestions
or amendments they feel necessary. These guidelines will
not take effect unless approved by the Board.
Mr. Clark said that thev will notify all propertv owners
of sites recommended for designation as a historical land-
mark. If someone who owns one of these historic sites
wants to remodel or tear down this building then they must
have a review by the Landmarks Commission. The Landmarks
Commission does have the power to stop the issuance of
a building permit. There was some further discussion on
this. Jack Thornton asked if this group was working with
the Downtowners group on these designations. He felt that
this would be advisable as these people have a financial
interest in the buildings.
There was some discussion on sites in the Bend area that
are listed on the national register of historical landmarks.
Chairman Paulson suggested that they try the criteria on
these sites first, to make sure that the proposed criteria
do not eliminate these sites.
Acceptance of Carol Wells Connell explained the location of this road.
Road_Dedica- She said that recently a partition had come in within the
tion for Por". City of Redmond but 30 feet of the property went out into
tion of Sal- the roadway. At the city's request, the owner dedicated
mon Ave. that to the public, but now they must determine who will
accept the dedication, the city or the county. This is
a county road but it is within the city. Mr. Isham said
that it may not be legal for the county to accept this
by any means other than a deed. It was agreed that Counsel
would research this and report back to the Board at a
later date. Chairman Paulson suggested that a general
discussion item be placed on the agenda at a later date
in regard to this, so that the Board may formulate a policy
on how to.dispose of their roads within cities.
Discusion re- Cancelled.

Discussion re- Floyd Herring, Developer of Boonesborough Subdivision,
garding Boones-said that he only needs to meet one requirement before
borough Sub- obtaining final approval of his subdivision, and that
division
was the bonding for the road requirements. He said that
the bonding procedure as outlined in the ordinance was
not economically feasible for him at this time, and asked
that the Board accept a promisory note from him guarantee-
ing that this work will be completed. Alengthy discussion
ensued. Because of the language contained in the ordinance,
the Board did not feel that they could accept the proposed
note, as it was placing the county in a position of pos-
sible financial risk.
Discussion re-
Jim Archibald, interim Building Official, came before the
garding work
Board to request that his department be placed on a 40-
hours for the
hour work week. With the current 36-hour week, they have
Building Dept.
all of their field inspectors off on Fridays, which essen-
tially closes down their department. Mike Maier, Director
of Administrative Services, said that their budget this
quarter was.as follows: Revenues - $49,000, Expenditures
- $47,000 + 20% overhead costs to the county. This puts
their budget in the red at this point, even though they
have been short on budgeted personnel. It was pointed
out that they are not charging a plans check fee, although
one was authorized by ordinance. Mr. Isham said that he
will check this to make sure that it is clear to begin
charging the plans check fee, and after that is done they
will begin charging that fee immediately. The Board dir-
ected that the inspector's off days be split so that
there will not be one day when all the inspectors are off.
Other Staff/ Rick Isham, County Counsel, said that the Bond Sale was
Public Con- closed today so funds in the amount of $1,635,000 were
cerns transferred. Since they did close the sale 25 days after
the date of the bond, they received an extra check for
$12,721. They will have $1,000,000 unspent for six months,
so this will generate $80,000 to $90,000 in interest.
He said that this interest can be transferred to the Gen-
eral Fund, as well as $15,000 that the county,.will receive
for administrative costs, so this will add about $100,000
to the General Fund. He felt that this would be enough
money to carry the administrative costs on a year to year
basis. He noted that there may be some problem with late
payers, and they are also receiving late applications.
Chairman Paulson said that he felt that this money should
go back to the people who bought the bonds. Mr. Isham
said that he felt that over the entire ten year period,
the county would probably lose money overall in adminis-
tering the project. Further discussion followed. Commis-
sioner Shepard suggested that a separate fund be set up
to balance against the County's administrative expenses
over the life of the bond administration.
