Also present were Laurie Craghead, County Counsel; Nick Lelack, Tom Anderson and Paul Blikstad, Community Development; and one other citizen. Chair DeBone opened the meeting at 10:00 a.m. 1. PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE 2. CITIZEN INPUT None was offered. 3. Before the Board was a Public Hearing and Consideration of First and Second Readings by Title Only, and Adoption by Emergency, of Ordinances Incorporating Minor Changes to State Law into Deschutes County Code (Ordinances No. 2012-007,-008, -00 and -010). Chair DeBone read the opening statement at this time. In regard to conflicts of interest, the two Commissioners claimed none. No challenges from the public were voiced. Paul Blikstad explained the various changes, most of which are `housekeeping' in nature and required to comply or be consistent with changes in State law. Minutes of Board of Commissioners' Business Meeting Monday, April 23, 2012 Page 1 of 4 Pages Regarding `room and board' arrangements, in the past there was a conditional use permit for what was perceived as room and board arrangements on EFU land, but the Commissioners had indicated that this had to be for no less than thirty days. The most important part of this issue is whether there is to be a specific timeframe necessary. There is no set definition of room and board arrangements in Code except for the Board's decision in this one case. Commissioner Unger said at the time they were trying to determine the difference between `room and board' and `bed and breakfast'. Ms. Craghead stated that Statute changed around that time, and the meaning of bed and breakfast was not clear. At this time the State has clarified they are similar. Commissioner Unger indicated that `bed and breakfast' also gives, for instance, farmers an option of having students come and learn about farming, etc. None would likely stay for thirty days, however. Mr. Blikstad said `room and board arrangements' has now been clarified, and the DLCD does not care if this includes bed and breakfast. Ms. Craghead stated that the State is going towards broadening these arrangements rather than restricting them. Mr. Blikstad said that the Board can take out the thirty-day requirement since the State does not feel this is necessary. This would define room and board arrangements with no minimum stay. Mr. Blikstad talked about wind power generating and photo voltaic energy generating systems, now written into statute. Ms. Craghead stated that the property owner cannot sell the power, since it is for individual use only. Otherwise, it would fit under utility facilities with a lot of criteria to meet at that time. Mr. Blikstad stated that if something has to be reviewed by the Oregon Department of Energy, it is big enough that it should not be left up to the County anyway. Commissioner Unger believes the intent was to allow for small-scale energy wind generation, but a 100-foot tower would be allowed as a conditional use. He would like to be open to this and see if there are problems. He does not feel there will be that many considered due to the cost of such equipment and the marginal potential energy production capabilities in this area. Minutes of Board of Commissioners' Business Meeting Monday, April 23, 2012 Page 2 of 4 Pages Regarding parks dedication and park fees, when the Code was written there was an entity called the Central Oregon Park and Recreation District. They are now named the Redmond Park and Recreation District. Rather than being specific, this change would cover any Park and Recreation District that is created or has changed its name. Ms. Craghead went through some small wording changes to clarify and reformat to meet State wording. The Redmond Fire District addressing system and the County's addressing system are not the same. However, there are properties that are in the Fire District near but not adjacent to other Fire District covered properties, so the addressing system is not consistent. Mr. Blikstad said that he does not see a big problem with this. The County can choose to have properties renumbered or allow the Fire District to do so. For instance, all of Lower Bridge Estates was renumbered at one point. Tom Anderson stated that he does not believe Redmond Fire District would pursue renumbering except for a couple of areas that would help with their response time. The whole concept was that the Code changes would set the table for future address creations, with the County matching up with the Fire District protocols. Ms. Craghead suggested they determine if there is some leapfrogging that needs to be reviewed. This is just in regard to the Redmond Fire District and not others. The Commissioners felt that being consistent with future address creations would be desired, without going back to change others unless warranted. Being no further discussion, the public hearing was closed at this time, and Counsel will prepare final documents for a Board business meeting next week. 4. ADDITIONS TO THE AGENDA None was offered. Being no further items to come before the Board, the meeting adjourned 10:30 a.m. Minutes of Board of Commissioners' Business Meeting Monday, April 23, 2012 Page 3 of 4 Pages U DATED this Day of M~ L 2012 for the Deschutes County Board of Commissioners.
