Employee Discussion was held regarding the possible retraining of ReTraining/ an employee who was hurt on the job in the Public Works Code Department and is presently unable to continue with that Enforcement position. It has been discussed and suggested that this Officer employee be retrained to work as a Code Enforcement Officer for the combination of the Planning, Building and Sanitation Departments. Training would be by directors of all three departments. The funding for this position would be backed 50% by the Public Works Department, as they are currently expending two-thirds of the employee's salary through S.A.I.F. The other 50% would be paid by the Planning Department via contingency. Some discussion was held regarding the employee to be retrained and the value of this re-training. 1 of 7 YOUNG felt that Mike Maier had a good resolution to solve two problems by putting an empl.oyee wanting to go to work back to work, and by obtaining an enforcement officer into department that need an officer.

Air- ' LID for A discussion was held regarding the proposed LID for Sewer & sewer and water on Division Street. Dave Hoerning, County Water on Surveyor, related that it was nearing the time to begin Division grading from Cleveland Avenue on south to Brosterhaus Road Street and on the plans for the sewer there is a line scheduled to go in that alignment that comes from Cleveland Avenue south. Also several other lines shown in the Phase II plan that is within the city boundary. Portions of these areas there are already being served by City water. Dave stated that he has been approached by several property owners that are interested in talking and setting up a meeting to find out how many people they may interest to form an LID and get the line put in before the road is built. They do not want to see the road built then have to go back and tear it up to put in the sewer lines. Dave told these people he would bring it before the Commission to get their approval so that the people interested may get started and form a petition to form the Local Improvement District. Commissioner Shepard had some concern that by consenting to this LID at this time would be setting a precedent and what would happen if they did consent and then when the agreement went to LCDC there may be some holdup with the project. Dave also stated that Phase II must get under way and that after completion will be turned over to the city, as Phase II of this project is a continuation of Phase I which is in city limits. Jay Turley, City of Bend, stated that it really doesn't matter which phase it is but that the work they are doing in preparation for this project would have to be done regardless whether Phase II is completed or not and regardless where the line are put in. Dave Hoerning mentioned that the main point of the discussion was to get an approval from the Board on the concept of the LID and not the LID itself. Commissioner Shepard stated he knew this but was concerned with an implied consent which would be assumed by the property owners involved that their LID was established. Dave then related that whether or not consent was given for the LID the actual work would eventually have to be started in order to get underway with the lines. The sooner the start, the better. MOTION: YOUNG moved to approve the concept of an LID for the sewer and water lines on Division Street. PAULSON: Second. VOTE YOUNG: Aye. PAULSON: Aye. SHEPARD: Aye. Equestrian Rick Isham requested that the discussion on Equestrian Meadows Meadows Phase II LID Resolution and Engineer's Report be held at proposed the May 19, 1982 Courtday meeting as the Resolution has not LID & been prepared yet. This was the consent on the Board of Engineer Commissioners. Report Page 3 of 7 Legal Paulson commented on the idea of dealing with our own Representa- County Counsel as a legal representative when the Board tion for is involved with districts such as the 7th Mountain County Districts Service District. He suggested that the Board set a requirement that as head of the district, they be allowed to choose the County Counsel as their representative and to be reimbursed by the district for services provided by the County Counsel. Rick Isham was asked for his opinion on this matter, and was in agreement. MOTION: PAULSON moved that the County appoint the County Counsel, Rick Isham, as legal counsel for all districts for which the Board of Commissioners act as head of and that this change be effective as of July 1, 1982. YOUNG: Second. VOTE: PAULSON: AYE. YOUNG: AYE. SHEPARD: AYE. Land Rick Isham related to the Board of Commissioners that Exchange the Resolution #82-012 regarding the land change with Adrian Adrian Wilcox must be postponed. The exchange will still Wilcox be taking place, but as Mr. Wilcox has entered into a sale of his property to another party, the procedure must be started again.to.-be legal with the new party, although Mr. Wilcox will still be assuming the responsibility of the land exchange. Mr. Isham stated it will probably be a couple of months before this item is again ready for consideration. Other Jay Turley from the City of Bend brought to the attention Business: of the Board that the Bend Chamber of Commerce has Mike Maier as a member of the Commerce but not the Commissioners. The Board related to Mr. Turley that they are members of the Board of Chamber of Commerce, but that they were not getting the letter from the Commerce. Mike.Maier:stated that he is getting the letter and perhaps only one is sent per group. Jay will check into this further. Jim France, County Sheriff, brought before the Board a possibility of deleting two of his lead supervisory positions and replacing them with just one Sargeant position. He stated there seems to be a problem at this time with discipline and continuity with the two lead position and believes that by having one sargeant this problem will be alleviated. Jim requested that the Board grant him authority to establish this sargeant's position for the Corrections Division. MOTION: PAULSON moved to allow Jim France, County Sheriff, to make the changes to establish a new sargeant's position for the County Correctional Division. YOUNG: Second. VOTE: PAULSON: AYE. YOUNG: AYE. SHEPARD: AYE. Page 4 of 7 Other Business: Chairman Shepard questioned John Anderson, Planning Director, if he had seen the letter requesting temporary placement of a 10'x40' mobile home on land owned by the Oregon High Desert Museum from Karen Throop. John reviewed the letter and stated that this had been discussed before and that the Planning Department did not have the authority to issue a permit for the temporary placement of this mobile home. The mobile home would be used for temporary office and storage space by the Oregon High Desert Museum while they are building a new structure. John stated that he was not really opposed to the conditional use, but that it was not in his jurisdiction. Commissioner Paulson suggested that Chairman Shepard look into this further with John before further discussion. As Shepard has many other projects on hand at this time, he requested that Commissioner Paulson check into this for further discussion. Jay Turley again brought to the Board new information regarding the Bend Chamber of Commerce Board memberships. He related that after checking into this matter further that the County only has one member named at this time which is Mike Maier. Jay suggested that perhaps the County could expend $60 for each commissioner to have a personal membership on the Board for Chamber of Commerce. Commissioner Paulson stated that it was his understanding that the Board did have a membership and that it had previously been budgeted for. He suggested that Jay check with Jeri Schutte to find out how much money had been expended for Chamber memberships last year.

Rick Isham stated that he has already ordered a title search for this land trade. Rick also mentioned that the request was to hire an independent appraiser but BLM has indicated they do not want the County to do that as they wish to use a Portland office. Rick suggested that this request be granted. PL-9 Commissioner Paulson had some questions to ask Rick County regarding the proposed PL-9, County Procedural Ordinance. Procedural One question for clarification was that when action is Ordinance taken would the property owners be notified. Rick replied that prior to the action all affected property would be notified, but that after action is taken only those parties which had participated or given comment on the proposed action.

Chairman' Shepard noted for the information of the Board that there is a Planning conference at the Riverhouse this Thursday and Friday. The cost is $35 per person, but did not feel that each commissioner should register if they were not going to be attending much of the seminar.
