Audio Cassette Recording Titled: BOARD MEETING
Dated as: July 19, 1979
A meeting of the Board of County Commissioners was held on July 19, 1979.
Board of Commissioners present were Albert Young, Robert Paulsen, and Clay
Shephard
Agenda:
• Request for Information: An update was requested from Commissioner
Paulsen and Mrs. Aleshire (unsure of the person speaking — not stated for the
record) a citizen and non -County employee requested that she is able to
continue requesting information from files on owners/builders and addresses
on building permits as she has in the past without expense to herself.
Discussion held on whether there were illegal permits and if builder's names
and addresses must be listed. Accusations of withholding information were
made. Chair Shephard suggested a review of past permits and under the
present policy for a request for information would present a fee.

MOTION: Commissioner Paulsen moved that she Mrs. Aleshire should be
allowed to go into the files and retrieve the information that she requested up
to today's date. Commissioner Shephard supported. Discussion the reason
for denying access to the files is because it has become increasingly
cumbersome to have people coming in to go through files, items are being
misfiled and there are increased occurrences of problems caused by allowing
people to have access to the files. All information in compliance with the
ORS is included in the files. Building Department staff could be requested
to pull the information from the files with enough notice instead of allowing
the public to go through the files. She is asking for the files from mid-April
to today's date. Information in the files is public but having a member of the
public going through the files isn't County policy.
Commissioner Paulsen rescinded his motion and revised it to state: the
information relative to building applications and permits between Aril 15
and July 19 1979 be made available to Mrs. Aleshire upon her request and
supplied to her at the counter and authorizes the request for information fee
waiver. Commissioner Shephard supported.
VOTE: YOUNG: Absent
PAULSEN: Yes
SHEPHARD: Chair votes yes. Motion Carried
MOTION: Commissioner Paulsen moved the building applications be filled
out in their entirety and are not considered valid until complete. No second
made to the motion.
Discussion held on the policy for fees for requests for information. Mrs.
Aleshire protested the fee and requests an investigation into the charges.
