Audio Cassette Recording Titled: WORK SESSION
March 25, 1991; 10:00-11:30 AM.
A meeting of the Board of County Commissioners was held on March 25, 1991.
Commissioners present were Nancy Pope Schlangen, Tom Troop and Dick
Maudlin. Also in attendance were Rick Isham, County Counsel; County
Administrator Mike Maier; and other staff and a few citizens.
Items discussed at this meeting may be on a future Board business meeting
agenda:
The Redmond Rod and Gun Club annual report. They are in stage 1 of the 3 -stage
leasehold. This is repair, followed by maintenance and upgrade. They have
completed a new gate at the highway, the patio was expanded, the woodstove
was replaced, outside lighting has been replaced with safety shields, the well in
the pump house has been repaired, warning signs have been installed, and they
have elected officers. The club's nonprofit status has been reinstated by the
State, and insurance is paid up.

The representatives then went into their plans for the future for the site and the
various activities there. The Board was impressed by what they have
accomplished.
Discussion of a public hearing regarding an appeal of the Planning Commission's
decision to require public access as part of the conservation easement for the
division of a 120 -acre parcel into two lots. The appellant is Donald Carter.
Discussion of a public hearing concerning Order 91-041, a final order to annex
territory into the Sisters -Camp Sherman Rural Fire Protection District.
Discussion regarding authorization to accept a promissory note as security to an
improvement agreement. This is the mini -mart and gas station at Arthur Street
and Division Street, and Arthur needs to be improved. The owner wants to pay
for this over a year. It is for $8,800, but the County can't do anything about it
because this is located within the City. The City said they would shut off sewer
and water service if he fails to pay the note.
Discussion of signature of a petition to vacate a portion of a road. This was
postponed for a week.
Discussion of an amendment to the State Health intergovernmental agreement,
regarding Medicaid dollars.
Discussion regarding appointing two new members to the Mental Health Advisory
Committee. They wish to increase the number of members and will be adjusting
the by-laws to allow for this.
Discussion of a request for out of state travel for a jail employee for training
purposes. Part of this will be paid by the Sheriff's Association.
Discussion of Order 91-045, tax refunds.
Discussion of an appointment to the Deschutes County Bicycle Advisory
Committee.

Discussion of a contract with Architectural Plumbing and Structural Design for the
Juvenile facility. This will provide working drawings so they can get building
permits.
Discussion of appointments to the Black Butte Ranch County Service District
budget committee.
Discussion of a clarification of the Natural Resources Center's request for a waiver
of dumping fees, in the amount of $420. This is for the relocation of the Pilot
Butte building. The Board was supportive.
Discussion of upcoming meetings with Personnel and Building Services, and CDD;
and a meeting to discuss the classification and pay study.
The next meeting with the Health Department will be at their location.
There is an upcoming meeting to talk about code enforcement issues.
Discussion of changes to the manufactured home ordinance. It appears that
some mobile home parks are raising rental fees because they know the residents
can't do anything with their older or substandard mobile homes. The Board
directed staff to draft a document to handle this situation during a period of
transition. This affects early 1970's models. This is about when aluminum wiring
was no longer to be allowed.
Discussion of the Redmond Library board's activities relating to their desire to
obtain the old fairground property. The City of Redmond has also talked about
putting city hall there.
Discussion of a letter from the City of Redmond regarding a loan to the Senior
Center. They've asked for a year's extension. The Board was supportive.
Discussion of controversies regarding the placement of the new school in Sisters.
Some residents do not want any forest land used for this.
Discussion of a travel request by Susie Penhollow to attend a conference in
Florida. The Board was supportive.

An appraiser asked if he could hook up to the mainframe like the Realtors do, to
obtain information on properties. The Board said this should be possible to
arrange.
CASA has asked about available space in the Courthouse. They are hoping to get
a small office space there.
Discussion of a letter from the Children and Youth Services Commission
requesting the phone sets from Juvenile once Juvenile gets new equipment.
Request for Commissioner's participation at an F.A.A. meeting. Mr. Throop will
do this.
Discussion of a letter from someone who wants to build in a development in La
Pine but does not want to get a conditional use for each one. The Board indicated
that this is not a legal subdivision. They put the roads in, but at that time it
became zoned EFU under new land use, which doesn't make sense. There are
houses on half the lots already, 2.5 acre lots. The Board asked staff to investigate
further.
Mr. Maudlin said he is hearing a lot of complaints from the public about how long
it is taking to get permits, inspections and other services. He said someone owns
a lot in Oregon Water Wonderland and wanted to build a shed to store his boat.
He is not putting in a residence. CDD advised him he has to get septic approval
before he can get a permit to do anything.
Mr. Maudlin feels this is not right and wants to learn more about it. He was told
this is a DEQ rule. But they went ahead and let the man put up the building, and
this is not right, either. This needs to be consistent answers and treatment for
everyone. He will bring this up at the next meeting with the CDD Director and
staff.
