McCann, County Commissioner for the County of Deschutes, State of Oregon For fostering County ordinances to designate the uses that may be made of land belonging to private citizens. For fostering legislation prescribing terms under which a citizen of Deschutes County can sell his land. For permitting the professional land developer to be favored in the administration of regulations. For wasting the taxpayer's money. For publicly appearing as a County official opposing the right of citizens to protect their interests by initiative petition. Justification of his course in office by G. W. McCann, County Commissioner A Commissioner has the duties and responsibilities of County Government as outlined by Statutes and the demands of the majority of the people of the county. This is YOUR Govern- ment. It is my desire to provide the people of Deschutes County with Services and Regulations the majority want, and not to accede to the demands of any special interest or pressure group, !when I feel the group is a minority. The duties of Commissioner cover policy and decisions in many activities, including the controversial planning and subdivision regulations. I favor Regulations to promote planned development of the County, with thought to preservation of our natural beauty, clean air, and pure water. �� I have executed my duties honestly, faithfully and to the best of my ability as your Com- missioner. I do not feel that my conduct in office in any way warrants this recall movement. The recall procedure is intended to provide a means of removing an official who is morally derelict in his duties. I urge you to vote NO on this ballot, thereby supporting responsible County Government which will not accede to the demands of special interest groups at the expense of the taxpayers. GERALD W. McCANN —� Shall Deschutes County Commissioner G. W. McCann YES be recalled? NO _
