A meeting of the Board of County Commissioners was held on June 2, 1986. Commissioners present were Lois Prante, Dick Maudlin and Larry Tuttle. Also present were Rick Isham, County Counsel; County Administrator Mike Maier; and other staff. Agenda items for the next business meeting were: Budget hearing for the extension service and Inn of the 7t" Mountain. Public hearing on a proposed vacation of a portion of O.B. Riley Road, and an Order for same. Continuation of discussion of transportation plan, including Cooley Road. This would mean taking Cooley Road through to Deschutes Market Road. There were no objections except J.D. Ranch Estates might be affected. They preferred to cul- de-sac Cooley so it is not a thoroughfare. Transcription of Audio Recording of a Work Session, June 2, 1986 Page 1 of 4 Another problem is the potential noise and traffic, per several people who live on Deschutes Market Road who had testified against it. Some people don't want this road used instead of Highway 20. There was a lengthy discussion regarding this situation and whether the County should allow this vacation. Traffic needs to be accommodated as well. Findings need to be developed as soon as possible, or this needs to be removed from the transportation plan at least temporarily. Fee resolutions are to be approved. Approval of a credit on solid waste fees. A discussion of inspection and approval of public spa facilities and the fees for same; in particular, Sunriver and Black Butte Ranch. Fees would be less if there are multiple spas in the same building. Staff will develop a formula for this. Financial segregation papers for Mervin. Signature of a development agreement with Neery. Minor partition for Lafferty. Financial agreement for Silva. Contract modification for clinical services between COCC and the Health Department. Mental Health Division regarding police holds. Temporary rules have been developed but some of the issues have not yet been addressed. The Board does not want this authority, and local law enforcement agencies should be involved in this. OLCC license for Hampton Station. Transcription of Audio Recording of a Work Session, June 2, 1986 Page 2 of 4 Discussion of irrigation problems affecting County roads. The County has the authority to warn people who are watering down the roads. A citation can be issued after this. Typically in the past, citations are ignored or thrown out of court. It is a major problem much of the year, especially in the Alfalfa area. The roads get saturated and then the truck traffic tears of up the road base. The Department wants to know if the Board wants them to look the other way, or continue to write citations and hope they are defended. People ignore them or the court doesn't impose a fine. Mr. Isham said they could put a lien on the property if there was a fine, although the fines are usually less than $70. They can't keep up on this damage on a yearly basis. This is normally noticed when an employee is in the area and notices a problem. It is not necessarily a problem with the wind, but flood irrigating 24 hours a day. This can be controlled. The Farm Bureau wanted the ordinance thrown out. The Board said the department should warn and cite. Discussion of using a public vehicle for private use. This will be added to the personnel rules. Discussion of the JSC fund's accrual of interest going back to the JSC. Mike Maier said that this interest is about $500 a year and goes into the general fund. It's a dedicated fund and perhaps they should get the interest, but this is the only way to offset other County expenses. The Board felt that this should continue going into the general fund. Board letter to the U.S. Department of Energy suggesting that they don't continue putting nuclear waste in Hanford. They need to take all this stuff to Texas.

There is no system for someone to receive authorization to do this, or even open a public right of way that was previously closed. People who live in the area next to Wickiup Junction want to improve it at their expense, but want assurances that the County is okay with it. If the County can't fix it, they should be able to do so, but the work has to be done properly. (There was a long discussion about liability and possible future improvements.) Mr. Isham said there is no County process for permitting this. The Commissioners said they don't want to tell someone that they can't improve it. Mr. Isham will research this issue. Contract with MicroGraphics for computer equipment. The old equipment can be traded in for a minimal amount. This is budgeted.
