A meeting of the Board of County Commissioners was held on March 23, 1992. Commissioners present were Nancy Pope Schlangen and Dick Maudlin. Commissioner Tom Throop was out of the office. Also in attendance were Rick Isham, County Counsel; County Administrator Mike Maier; and other staff, media, and a few citizens. Items discussed at this meeting may be on a future Board business meeting agenda: Discussion of a request from the Fair Association to waive fees for the new Fairgrounds. Fair Association representatives explained the request, which would have to do with planning fees. Karen White with CDD said that the property is outside the urban growth boundary, so requires a considerable amount of work for planning approval. (She went into detail as to what this would encompass.) Transcription of Audio Recording of a Work Session, March 23, 1992 Page 1 of 4 The planning fees would be at least $4,000. A needs analysis could cost many thousands more. If the City was involved and was the applicant, the fees could be waived per previous agreement between the cities and the County. However, the property owner is generally the one who covers this expense and makes the application. But someone has to pay for it. It has to be within the UGB because it will be served by the sewer system. At first the Fairgrounds was going to be turned over to the Association, but it has tentatively been decided that the County will retain ownership of the property. It would be assigned to the Fair Board for purposes of the Fair. The Fair Association would undertake development of facilities. The question now is whether it really needs to be partitioned since the County will retain ownership. The Fair representatives said they were prepared to pay for normal permits and fees, but do not have the funds to do an expensive needs analysis or other kinds of studies. Mr. Maudlin feels that the Fairgrounds is more of a rural use than an urban use, especially considering judging cattle, pigs and other animals during the Fair. Staff said the earmarks of an urban use are the parking, the traffic, the number of people and so on. Also, some of this work is time -sensitive. A lengthy discussion ensued. It was decided that planning needed to meet with the Fair Board to come up with a plan on how to proceed. Discussion of acceptance of a declaration of dedication for Ponderosa Cascades subdivision, and the quit claim of Waugh Road in the subdivision to the property association. This needs to be done so the local improvement district road work can commence. Discussion of a State grant agreement to Central Oregon AIDS support team for advertising about the issue, and for their booth at the annual Fair. Transcription of Audio Recording of a Work Session, March 23, 1992 Page 2 of 4 Discussion of a request to waive taxes due on the Gordon Beck Park property at Lower Bridge. This is a transfer of property to Central Oregon Park & Recreation, and all has been worked out except the current taxes. The amount is about $1,200, and State law allows taxes to be canceled if property is going to a park district. The Board felt this would be appropriate. Discussion of Order 92-031, a tax order. Discussion of upcoming meetings with Personnel, Community Corrections, the Health Department, and Billing Services. Discussion of a dog hearing this week. Discussion of Tetherow Crossing with members of the Tetherow Crossing Homeowners Association regarding a gate permit. Staff recommends approval with a couple of conditions. A long discussion ensued about who takes care of the roads and other access for the general public. Discussion about a possible no -shooting area. Discussion of proposals on the public opinion survey. Discussion of the Highway Division's proposal to resurface much of Third Street in Bend. Most of this work would occur at night. Discussion of the potential amendment of provisions related to the transient room tax, to get better control of collections. It would have to be on the ballot this fall. Discussion of destination resorts and a lawsuit against ArluDeco, and the 1,000 Friends involvement. Evidently the two groups are going to pool their attorney resources.
