A meeting of the Board of County Commissioners was held on June 20, 1994. Commissioners present were Nancy Pope Schlangen, Tom Troop and Barry Slaughter. Also in attendance were Rick (sham, County Counsel; County Administrator Mike Maier; the media, other staff and a few citizens. Items discussed at this meeting may be on a future Board business meeting agenda: Discussion of a public hearing regarding a possible J Bar J facility for girls in the Cloverdale area. Discussion of a public hearing on an ordinance to amend the comprehensive plan in order to adopt a new ESEE to replace the existing one, for riparian areas and wetlands. Transcription of Audio Recording of a Work Session, June 20, 1994 Page 1 of 6 There was an objection from LCDC that the ESEE did not specify which provisions to protect riparian areas applied to which streams; in particular, that Indian Ford Creek was not addressed. (A lengthy staff explanation was then given.) Discussion of a public hearing on a text amendment to allow in-line skating in Sunriver, as a commercial use. Discussion of a decision on a conditional use permit for the Sisters Academy. Discussion of the appointment of Helzman (?) as the County's workers compensation third party administrator. Staff Mike Viegas, Risk Management, gave an overview of the request for proposals and the winning bidder. Discussion of accepting a slope and construction easement for the Spring River Bridge project. Larry Rice explained the project, which has taken some time to come together. Commissioner Throop asked about a recent Public Works informational memo and the observation made about difficulties with Burlington Northern Railroad regarding the Butler Market Road project. It was noted that it could take 18 months for them to do what is needed. Larry Rice explained that the State has been involved and has made some progress, so it should be open by October. Mr. Throop asked about the Waste Reduction Advisory Committee and when they will be meeting. Mr. Blust said that they met once already and are making progress on various issues. Commissioner Schlangen asked about the Gordon Beck Park signage issue. Mr. Rice said that the traffic engineer is handling this.

Discussion of approval of three treatment projects for the Adult Community Corrections Department. Staff Roland Gangstee said that two are all related to the chemical dependency intervention program that is State approved and funded. The other is for sex offender counseling. Discussion of an STF grant application. Susan Mayea gave an overview of the item. Disabled American Veterans has submitted an application, and this will help get them to Portland for medical treatment. Volunteer Services also transports a lot of disabled people, and has asked for funds to supplement their ability to get people to where they need to be. Both of these will offset the expenses of volunteers. Discussion of signature of the continuation of an agreement with the Central and Eastern Oregon Juvenile Justice Consortium for juvenile correction services in the detention center. Discussion of approval of an amendment to increase the rate paid for telephone communications. Discussion of approval of Ordinance 94-034, regarding septic system approval permits. This is meant to streamline the process and eliminate a duplicate permit fee. Citizen Ted Shassburger explained how this issue has affected him, and he is glad it is being addressed. Discussion of approval of a development agreement for Barbara and Brian Standiford. Discussion of approval of a development agreement and a landscape management zone. Transcription of Audio Recording of a Work Session, June 20, 1994 Page 3 of 6 Discussion of the ABC film production (the nature of the activity was not described). A citizen who lives on Gerking Market Road asked how the Board feels about this production being done on EFU zoned property. Bruce White said there is no application for land use approval and the Board cannot take a position yet. No activity has started. It would become an issue of enforcement if activity does start. Mr. Throop said that he understands that they have been advised by their legal counsel that no permit is needed for what is proposed. It could be that this is an issue to be addressed in Circuit Court, when neighbors can't agree on certain things. There is nothing before the County that can trigger any action at this particular time. The citizen feels the County needs some kind of protection against this kind of commercial activity. Commissioner Slaughter stated that he doesn't know any more about this than what has been printed in the newspaper. The County has no authority to do anything in advance of a potential problem. A long, heated discussion then took place. The citizen left unhappy with the conversation. Discussion of the Livesy (?) site, 280 acres that the Soil and Water Conservation is interested in acquiring, in Plainview. This is an old surface mining site and Soil and Water wants to turn it into an educational laboratory. There are discussions now occurring with the Forest Service and the Sisters School District on this property. They would like to enter into a land trade so the County can acquire some Forest Service land just west of the high school, which would be deeded over by the County for a new school site. A lengthy discussion ensued about the Plainview location being too far away from other educational sites. Mr. Throop feels that the exchange with the Forest Service and the School District makes a lot more sense. Transcription of Audio Recording of a Work Session, June 20, 1994 Page 4 of 6 Commissioner Schlangen disagreed, and said that the work of the Soil and Water group is important for educational purposes as well. She does not feel that this supports certain County -wide efforts, but is exclusive to just Sisters. Mr. Throop does not feel that the lab is close to reality and there is not a sufficient amount of cooperation in the community to make this kind of effort feasible. Soil and Water only has seven volunteers and no staff, and is not capable of putting this kind of facility together. Discussion about an event center and a feasibility study for same at the Fairgrounds; followed by a formalized proposal for the community to evaluate. The consultant will deal with the County, the cities and the public in this regard. The group wishes to talk about this next week. Funding needs to come from the cities as well as the County, and from the private sector. Commissioner Schlangen wants to see the funding commitment first before moving forward. Commissioner Slaughter asked for a more detailed update as well. Neither of those two Commissioners are ready to commit to an event center. Discussion of contributions to the Soil and Water Conservation District. They asked for $7,000 when in the past they have received $1,300 per year. They have gotten a grant to look at fertilizer use throughout the County and need to have some matching funds. The Board feels that this does fall under the economic development criteria and will support it. Discussion of the fact that COCOA did not have a chance to present their expanded request for funding to the Budget Committee. Mr. Throop said they have a new director, and were disappointed that the County has not been more supportive. They will be invited in to talk with the Board further. Discussion of signature of a plat related to a Fire District annexation that needs to be addressed before July. A hearing is required. Transcription of Audio Recording of a Work Session, June 20, 1994 Page 5 of 6 Discussion about the future of the current jail facility. Discussion of a letter from the Clean Air Committee and their receipt of a $100,000 grant from the EPA. They have asked for a commitment of support of their efforts from the County. Discussion of upcoming meetings: Library Board of Trustees; Administration; and the Sheriff. I certify that the above is a true and accurate record of a meeting, as reproduced from a cassette tape identified as Minutes of a Meeting of the Deschutes County Board of Commissioners, held on June 20, 1994.
