OF WORK SESSION
DESCHUTES COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 1, 2008
Present were Commissioners Dennis R. Luke, Michael M. Daly and Tammy
Melton. Also present were Dave Kanner, Administrator; Erik Kropp, Deputy
County Administrator; David Inbody, Assistant to the Administrator; Tom
Anderson and Kristen Maze, Community Development; Laurie Craghead and
Mark Pilliod, Legal Counsel; Brad and Bruce Bailey, Bend Garbage & Recycling;
Hillary Borrud of The Bulletin; and three other citizens.
Chair Luke opened the meeting at 1: 35 p.m.
1. Solid Waste Update.
Discussion occurred regarding the Fire Free event. Mr. Schimke said that the
City of Bend is now interested in participating in some fashion. The City was
originally worried about people holding onto debris through the summer in
order to take advantage of the spring Fire Free event.
Bruce Bailey stated that he suggested perhaps having a "$2 off' event during
burn weeks as allowed by City of Bend. Mr. Bailey added that of the material
collected, about 75% goes as hog fuel, and the rest is used for composting.
Heavier wood does not compost down well.
It was suggested that perhaps this could be structured this year-round, which
will help to make the composting program more sustainable year-round. It may
help to change the behavior of the public from doing cleanup all at once to
instead keeping their property cleaned up all the time.
Curbside collection is increasing slowly, not where they want to be, the
economy may be keeping some residents from signing up at this time.

Commissioner Luke said that it takes a substantial amount of effort and funding
to be able to put on this type of program. Mr. Bailey said this particular event
could be held in early November and would not be a free event, but fees would
be substantially discounted.
Mr. Schimke said that the free tire disposal weekend continues to get many tires
from groups that are not supposed to bring them in, such as dealers and others
that collect tires in volume and bring in dozens at a time. He plans to limit the
number of tires per person at the next event.
He said that perhaps the better way to handle the tires is to allow people to
bring them with their other items to the landfill and set the tires aside at no cost,
instead of getting a lot of them in all at once.
The report on the demolition landfill property is almost done, and Mr. Schimke
will be bringing the executive summary to the Board soon. There were some
elevated concentrations of oil products and one vial of questionable material.
The consultants who have been doing the investigation of the property plan to
make a formal presentation to the Board.
Mr. Kanner said that the City still seems to be committed on working with the
County on a master plan for the property. He expects work to begin on this
process in a few months.
Mr. Bailey said that his company has been approved by the City of Sisters to
start handling their trash collection. Sisters will have the same level of service
as the other cities do, and the recycling amount should increase.
2. Economic Development Grant Requests.
David Inbody said that two of the requests are from groups that wish to use the
facilities at the Fairgrounds, in response to the Board's decision not to provide a
lump sum of money of $10,000 to the Fairgrounds to help offset the rental of
the facilities to nonprofit groups and other agencies who are attempting to hold
fundraising activities.
Mt. Bachelor Kennel Club - K-9 Karnival to Benefit the Humane Society of
Redmond - Commissioners Melton granted $1,000; Commissioner Luke
granted $500; and Commissioner Daly granted the difference of $2,400.
w1IIIULUS oi tiummisirative work session Wednesday, October 1, 2008
Page 2 of 5 Pages
UC Santa Barbara Economic Forecast Project - with Portland State
University - Commissioner Melton said that this is being put together by a
lot of local businesses to ensure that the forecast is more accurate than in the
past. She granted $1,000.
Horse Heaven Ranch - Rental of Sagebrush Arena - The Commissioners
indicated they would not provide grant funds since the group is a private
entity and not a nonprofit agency.
Bend 2030 - Town Hall - David Inbody stated that the nonprofit agency
doing the study is requesting the funds. This would provide an update to the
community on the status of the project. Commissioner Melton granted
$1,000 but requested that it be contingent on a City of Bend match.
Mr. Kanner said that the City of La Pine wants to have another work session
with the Commissioners held in December, as there will be new councilors on
board. The Commissioners indicated that January may be a better time.
Mr. Kanner asked if the Board wanted to have regular meetings scheduled the
week of Christmas. The Commissioners indicated that this should remain on
the calendars but not to schedule anything that is not absolutely necessary.
In regard to Measures 57 and 61, some department heads and others have asked
that the Commissioners issue a statement about their position. Commissioner
Melton said that she was a little uncomfortable supporting even the COCC
measure, and feels this should be done on an individual basis instead of as a
Board. The Commissioners can take a position on any Measure as an
individual if desired.
3. Update of Commissioners' Meetings and Schedules.
Commissioner Melton will begin the Pacific Program this weekend and will be
out of the office next week. Commissioners Luke and Daly will be in Salem on
Monday, October 6.
iviiiluLUS ui tiammistrative work session Wednesday, October 1, 2008
Page 3 of 5 Pages
Commissioner Melton reported back on the AOC regional meeting in
Lakeview. She feels that perhaps Erik Kropp or Dave Kanner should attend the
next one as well. This particular meeting included a discussion on forest health,
and a request was made by the five counties to ask AOC to put together a plan
to move forward on this issue. This may be a way to open opportunities for
small diameter wood processing and to reduce wildfire risk. On Monday,
October 13, the public lands group will formally request that AOC take this on
as a campaign. They would like a letter indicating Board support of this plan.
Commissioner Melton said that there was concern voiced at the meeting that
ODOT has in effect put a moratorium on growth by requiring certain road
improvements that they have no way of funding. This puts the funding problem
on the shoulders of the local entity or the counties, who also may not be able to
afford the required improvements. Even if the county or other entity can afford
its share, ODOT is not able to contribute the amount they are to provide. The
other counties were under the impression that Deschutes County was the cause
of this overriding moratorium, and Commissioner Melton was able to clarify
the facts.
Commissioner Daly said he is attending the State Land Board meeting on
Tuesday in Salem. The possible exchange of land located adjacent to the
Redmond airport between the County and the Division of State Lands is on the
agenda.
4. Other Items.
As a follow-up to the morning business meeting presentation supporting a "yes"
vote on Ballot Measure 9-58 in the November 4, 2008, general election (Central
Oregon Community College measure), the Board indicated support.
DALY: Move signature of Resolution No. 2008-133.
MELTON: Second.
VOTE: MELTON: Yes.
DALY: Yes.
LUKE: Chair votes yes.
Concerning the makeup of the Planning Commission, Commissioner Luke
asked if perhaps there should be some changes. Kristen Maze said that it is
now done by township and range, regardless of the population concentrations.
Minutes of Administrative Work Session Wednesday, October 1, 2008
Page 4 of 5 Pages
She added that it is possible that Brenda Pace will not be on the Commission
after this coming spring. There is not anyone from the Tumalo area now on the
group. Having specific areas represented is recommended but not required.
Commissioner Luke stated that things have changed a lot, and suggested that
perhaps the Planning Commission review this idea and see if there should be
adjustments made to accommodate increases in population and changes in the
various areas that have taken place since it was first written into Code in 1994.
Also, there could be up to nine members per statute, and maybe this is a change
that could more easily be accommodated.
Ms. Maze stated that this could be added to the work plan and addressed as time
allows. She will bring this suggestion to the Planning Commission to see how
they feel about it.
Tom Anderson pointed out that it is often hard to recruit qualified applicants,
and it is even more difficult if the search is for someone from a specific
location.
At 2:55 p.m. the Board went into Executive Session, called under ORS
192.660(2)(i), employment related performance review.
Being no further discussion, the meeting adjourned at 3:35 p.m.
DATED this 1St Day of October 2008 for the Deschutes County Board of
Commissioners.

Background:

of the six focus areas, and 88 action items, that comprise the Bend community's vision
for itself over the next 22 years. Our board works closely with over 60 lead partners,
representing the private, public and non-profit sectors. Our task: facilitate, network,
endorse and periodically, fundraise, bringing the vision to life!
To date, over 76% of the action items identified in the Vision are being worked on or
have been successfully achieved through collaborative and meaningful partnerships.
Our Mission:
Inspiring, guiding and strengthening partnerships that make our community's vision a
reality-Keeping Bend an amazing place to live!
The "Passport to the Future" town hall is an invitation to the community to check up on
the Bend 2030 Vision. The event has three major themes:
1. An update on current Vision initiatives, featuring Lead Partners from each focus area:
* Deschutes Land Trust, with an update on Skyline Forest
* City of Bend, Bend Neighborhood Associations
* Deschutes County
* Commute Options, Citizens for Bend Area Transit
* Housing Works, and affordable housing efforts
* Deschutes National Forest
2. How the vision impacts decision making. Keynote speakers will address the impact of
the Vision in their work:
* Eric King, City Manager, City of Bend

* Brad Bailey, Bend Garbage and Recycle
3. Get involved! Guests at the `Passport to the Future' will be invited to contribute or
volunteer via their Neighborhood Associations or directly with Bend 2030. Contact

How does "Passport to the Future" impact economic health of the region?
The "Passport to the Future" community forum is an important step in furthering the
work of Bend 2030. Specifically, the Vibrant Economy section of the Vision addresses
economic development, business infrastructure, workforce and sustainable industry
initiatives through 62 different actions that various agencies, private industry and non-
profit organizations have agreed to execute. (Please reference enclosed Vision document
beginning on page 16.)
Sustainable economic outcomes result from well-informed planning and broad
community support. Bend 2030 represents such a planning effort. We believe the Vision,
carefully crafted from the input of over 5700 citizens, provides a roadmap to inform
County initiatives, as well as a collaborative base for all lead partner agencies to work
from.
We appreciate your support with this request for funding, and we hope you will join us.

DISCRETIONARY GRANT PROBGRAM APPLICATIONS
Supplemental Questions
1. Describe the applicant organization, including its purpose, leadership structure,
and activities.
The prime participant is the University of California Santa Barbara (UCSB), a
major research university headed by a board of regents appointed by the Governor
of California. The UCSB Economic Forecast Project (UCSB-EFP) will perform
the work. This serf-funded research unit at UCSB has been forecasting regional
economics for over 25 years.
The UCSB-EFP will use its regional forecasting expertise to provide economic
models and forecasts of Oregon and Central Oregon.
The Portland State University Economics Department (PSU) will be a partner in
the project. This department is a highly respected department of one of Oregon's
premier universities. The department will be providing data, local knowledge,
and research of timely topics.
2. Describe the proposed project or activity.
A-Ovide annual Central Oregon economic forecasts. These forecasts will
necessarily include United States, Oregon, and Central Oregon data and forecasts-
The forecasts will be presented to the community at an annual event at an
appropriate facility. The forecasts will be comprehensive, detailed, topical,
current, and understandable.
3. Provide a timeline for completing the proposed projector activity.
Research, data collection, and model development have already begun at UCSB
and Portland State. We anticipate presenting the first annual Central Oregon
Economic Forecast in November 2008.
4. Explain how the proposed project or activity will impact the community's
economic health.
It is tautological that informed decisions and plans cannot be made without
information. The Central Oregon Economic Forecast will provide
comprehensive, detailed, topical, current, and understandable economic and
demographic information and forecasts. The information and forecasts will, help
policy makers, businesses, community leaders, and citizens make better, more
informed, decisions and plans,

5_ Identify the specific communities or groups that will benefit.
Policy makers, businesses, community leaders, and citizens will benefit from the
Central Oregon Economic Forecast.
6. Itemize anticipated expenditures. Describe how grant funds will be used and
include the source and amounts of matching funds or in-kind contributions, if any.
If the grant will support an ongoing activity, explain how it will be funded in the
.future.
Total cost of the project is $50,000. This is split $35,000 to the UCSb-EFP and
$15,000 to PSU. These funds include data purchases, collection, cleaning,
normalization and the like; regional and topical economic research; model
development and model runs; travel; and event costs.
Other funds and future funds will come from the community. Continued
community sponsorship will both certify the value of the Central Oregon
Economic Forecast and ensure that it will continue to inform policy makers,
businesses, community leaders, and citizens.

Attentions Luther A. Nichols,

Sirs:
Reference is made to the information furnished by you for use
in determining your status for Federal income tax purposes. The
question of your exemption arose in-connection with the Wilmerding
School of Industrial Art, San Francisco, California.
The evidence discloses that you are the regularly constituted
state university of the State of California created by a state
legislative act in 1868; that you are engaged in educational ac-
tivities; that your income is derived from investments, endowments,
tuition, and miscellaneous sources; and that your income is used to
defray general maintenande and operating expenses. The Wilmerding
School of Industrial Art is under your control and is administered
as a preparatory school and junior college.
It appears that you and your constituent schools are entitled
to exemption under the provisions of section 101(6) of the Revenue
Act of 1938 and the corresponding provisions of prior revenue acts.
You are not, therefore, required to file returns for 1938 and prior
years. Inasmuch as section 101(6) of. internal 2teve,nue Code (53 Stat.,
Part 1) is similar to section 101(6) 'of the Revenue Act of 1938,
returns of income will not be required for 1939 and subsequent years
so long as there is no change in your organization, your purposes or
your method of operation.
Any changes in your form of organization or method of operation,
as shown by the evidence submitted, must be' immediately reported to
the collector of internal revenue for your district in order that
the effect of such changes upon your present exempt status may be
determined.
The exemption referred to in this letter does not apply to
taxes levied under other titles or provisions of the Revenue Act of

1238 and the corresponding provisions of prior revenue acts, or the
internal Revenue Code except insofar as exemption is granted ex-
pressly under these provisions to organizations enumerated in sec-
tion 101(6) of-the Revenue Act.of 1938 and the gorresponding pro-
visions of prior revenue acts or in section lol of the rnternal
ftvenue Code.
Contributions made to you by individual donors are deductible
by such individuals in arriving at their taxable net income in the
mariner and to the extent provided by section 23 (o) of the Revenue
Act of 1938 and the corresponding provisions of prior revenue acts,
section 23(o) of laaternai Revenue Code and section 23(c) of internal
Revenue Code as amended by section 224 of the Revenue Act of 1939.
The deductibility of 'contributions by corporations is governed by
section 23(q) of the Anvenue Apts of 1936 and 1938, section 23(q)
of Internal Revenue Code and section 23(q) of internal Revenue Code

September 21, 20o8
Honorable Commissioners of Deschutes County
Thank you for your time in reviewing this grant application for Horse Heaven
Ranch, an organization which provides equestrian experiences for youth in a fun
and safe environment. I've attached documents about Horse Heaven Ranch and
some of the programs designed for youth in our local communities. Also attached
is a proposed budget for this project.
If funds are granted they would be applied to the $15oo weekly fee for use of the
Sage Brush Arena at the Redmond Exposition Facility. One week long summer
session of Hug A Horse or Horse Buddies 1o1 would be located at this facility. As
you know the Redmond Fairgrounds are centrally located for families in
Redmond, Powell Butte and Bend. It would be great for the youth of our
communities to experience horses, learn about horsemanship and stewardship of
our great outdoors while enhancing their self confidence, self-esteem and
teambuilding skills.
Thank you for the opportunity to apply for this grant

therapy for individuals in need and wilderness excursions for experienced equine
enthusiasts as well as day clinics focused on preparing individuals with equine safety
awareness skills, wilderness preparedness skills, self-defense from horseback and other
related equine topics to support individuals in becoming safe and independent as
equestrians and to encourage camp participants in experiencing outdoor experiences in
Central Oregon.
Other long term goals include: securing a home base to host these equine activities,
Partnering with other organizations with similar missions, i.e. USFS "Kids in the
Woods".

It is important that there is a goal to "grow" individuals who will join the efforts of this
core group in understanding relationships individuals and equines while teaching

Dear Commissioners,
Mt. Bachelor Kennel Club is not coming to you for money. Our request is that you
donate to us, free of charge the use of the Event Center Building at the Deschutes
County Fairgrounds and tables and chairs (number to be determined) for an event
sponsored by Mt. Bachelor Kennel Club on December 7, 2008. All proceeds from
this event to go to the Redmond Humane Society.
1.
Mt. Bachelor Kennel Club is a non-profit organization established in 1960 here in
Central Oregon. We have a membership of approximately 60 people. We are a
member club of The American Kennel Club.
Our main purpose is the advancement of purebred dogs, but we are very active in
the community as well.
Our main activity is the 3 day all-Breed Dog Show Obedience, Agility and Rally
Trial that is held at the Deschutes County Fairgrounds the latter part of June or
early July, this an annual event, the first one was held in 1982 at the old
Fairgrounds we are now in our 26th year.
Other MBKC activities include educational programs promoting responsible dog
ownership and care.
MBKC sponsors two Eye Clinics every year allowing Central Oregon dog owners
the opportunity to have their pet's eyes examined by a board certified Veterinary
Optometrist.
We offer two AKC Canine Good Citizen Evaluation Tests a year.
Over the years Mt. Bachelor Kennel Club has donated thousands of dollars to the
local Humane Societies and the various spay/neuter programs available in Central
Oregon.
Mt. Bachelor Kennel Club has purchased protective Kevlar Vests for all of the k-9
Police Officers in Central Oregon and provides subscriptions to dog magazines for 7
different libraries in the tri-county area.
Mt. Bachelor Kennel Club supports the local 4-H program monetarily and with help
during their various dog activities. MBKC purchased the ring gates and equipment
that they use for the Dog Judging contests at county Fair
MBKC members are involved in the local Therapy Dog Programs that include the
school reading program with the children and dogs, dog visits to hospitals and
nursing homes and various other therapy programs. As you can see we are very
active in the community.
2.
Mt. Bachelor Kennel Club is hoping to use the Event Center to sponsor an event
with all proceeds from that event going to benefit the Redmond Humane Society.
We have many great ideas, and people within MT. Bachelor Kennel Club with the
skills and knowledge to follow through with the ideas and make this a memorable
event that hopefully will contribute much-needed funds to the Redmond Shelter.
I have enclosed a separate sheet describing some of the activities we are anticipating
(Very Rough Draft)
3.
Our time line would be set-up time on Saturday, Dec. 6th with the use of
Fairgrounds tables and chairs and all day on Sunday, Dec 7th for the actual event.
4.
The Redmond Humane Society is in dire need of financial help, The goal of MBKC
is to try to generate funds to help them through this crisis.
5.
This event is designated specifically to support the Redmond Humane Society. We
feel that helping to support the Redmond Humane Society and keep the Shelters
doors open will have a positive impact on the entire community.
6.
Mt. Bachelor Kennel Club will meet any and all expenditures necessary to make this
a successful and productive event, including promotion and publicity. We are only
asking for the use of the Event Center building.
Respectfully submitted:
Mt. Bachelor Kennel Club
