Present were Commissioners Tammy Baney, Phil Henderson and Anthony DeBone. Also present were
Tom Anderson, County Administrator; Erik Kropp, Deputy County Administrator; David Doyle, County
Counsel; and Sharon Keith, Board Executive Assistant. Several citizens and representatives of the media

CALL TO ORDER: Chair DeBone called the meeting to order at 1:30 p.m.
ACTION ITEMS
1. 911 Update
Interim 911 Director Sara Crosswhite, ADCOMM Engineer Joe Blaschka were
present. Project Manager Rick Allen was present via conference call. The
User Board meeting was held yesterday and was very productive with
discussions regarding the Radio System. Discussion was held on the 3.4
system and what that means. A user agreement was drafted to outline
responsibilities for equipment. Two draft policies were also created to define
service area coverage and in -building coverage. A map of the coverage area
will be reviewed and testing will verify the service levels.

AUGUST 29, 2018 PAGE 1 OF 5
Commissioner Henderson commented it is interesting that no one has
reviewed the 3.0 map that we have had for three years. Mr. Blaschka
reported the history of the map review that was done in 2016 and doubts
those maps represent what was actually installed as the levels and
adjustments have changed. The next User Board discussion will be to define
what areas need to be augmented.
Commissioner Henderson inquired why policies weren't already in place. Mr.
Blaschka explained there are many agencies involved including the state
which makes it complex. A measureable goal for the system will be
developed.
Commissioner DeBone supports defining success and completion of the
testing. The Board hopes for the work to be done sooner rather than later
which may require an additional contractor to assist.
The 911 weekly report was reviewed. Mr. Blaschka reported on the new
permanent tower site development work and requested help with the lease
agreement. County Administrator Anderson suggested Property Manager
James Lewis could assist with the lease agreement.
Second round interviews for the Technical Manager are scheduled for
September 25.
Project Manager Rick Allen reported on a meeting scheduled for next week
with the Fire Departments. Ms. Crosswhite will then be meeting with the
Police Departments.
2. Rural Use Lands / Draft Scope of Work/Phase 1
Peter Gutowsky, Community Development Department presented this item
for discussion. The first update offers new naming conventions and options
on how to present to the legislature and involve conversations with the
Planning Commission. Commissioner Baney reported that eight Oregon
counties are working on a similar issue and it will benefit the counties if we
have a consistent way to name these lands. Mr. Gutowsky presented
BOCC WORK SESSION
AUGUST 29, 2018 PAGE 2 OF 5
whether or not there is interest in focusing the non -resource lands to
residential or close to the UGB. Mr. Gutowsky reported Douglas County has
at least temporarily withdrawn their non -resource comprehensive plan
process. The last topic presented is to define the purpose of a non -resource
land statement. Commissioner Baney likes the idea of planning. County
Administrator Anderson commented the more planning that could be done
would be beneficial. Commissioner DeBone stated we are managing for
population growth and recommends a meeting with the Planning
Commission. Mr. Gutowsky will reach out to various organizations to have
conversations on the matter.
COMMISSIONER UPDATES: None were reported.

department. County Administrator Anderson explained the PacificSource

contract may not happen right away and the CCBHC grant may not be
awarded. County Administrator Anderson recommended to consider the
impacts of those funding sources. Commissioner DeBone is not opposed to
filling the positions but is not supportive of expansion. Commissioner
Henderson isn't supportive of an increase of general funds. Commissioner
Baney suggested Health Services Business Manager to present this item to
the Board at the Work Session next week.
• Pool Inspection Update: County Administrator Anderson and County
Counsel Dave Doyle met with Environmental Health Staff, Mary McCool and

language. Erik Kropp would like to present him with a 12 month no trespass. In

DATE: August 16, 2018
SUBJECT: Rural Use Lands Project / Draft Scope of Work / Phase 1
corm a ti's 'Ty DFVEL, m ENT
I. BACKGROUND
On July 30, staff presented the Board of County Commissioners (Board) with a draft Non -Resource Lands
scope work.1 Staff introduced four potential phases:
• Phase 1. Adopt Comprehensive Plan policies to establish eligibility criteria for resource zoned lands
to be re -designated to Non -Resource Lands.
• Phase 2. Adopt a Non -Resource Designation and NR -20 zone for eligible properties near Bend's UGB.
• Phase 3. Identify committed residential uses and adopt a Non -Resource designation and NR -10 Zone
for eligible properties.
• Phase 4. Adopt a NR -30 Zone. This zone and the NR -20 zone can then be made available for eligible
property owners through a quasi-judicial plan amendment/zone change process.
At the conclusion of the work session, the Board expressed interest in discussing Phase 1 more thoroughly.
II. RENAMING NON -RESOURCE LANDS
One of the top priorities in the Planning Division's 2018-2019 work plan is Agricultural Lands Re-evaluation
& Potential Re -designation:
Initiate a local non -resource lands project to re-evaluate agricultural land designations,
amend the Comprehensive Plan to establish non -resource lands standards and criteria;
establish a new zoning district(s); and consider initiating re -designations of agricultural
lands meeting the new non -resource lands standards and criteria. Serve on state
committee(s) to define non -resource lands and/or propose amendments to state law in
the 2019 Legislative Session, and monitor Douglas County's non -resource lands project.
Rename non -resource lands for the project's intended purpose [emphasis added].
1 http://deschutescountyor.igm2.com/Citizens/FileOpen.aspx?Type=1&ID=1901&Inline=True
Staff proposes renaming the "Non -Resource Lands" program to either a general classification such as "Rural
Use Lands " (Jackson County utilizes this naming convention) or to a name indicating the primary/intended
use of the new designation similar to other zoning designations (e.g., rural residential, multiple use
agricultural, rural industrial, resort community). Some possibilities include:
• High Desert Lands • Rural Resource (DLCD proposed name)
• Low Density Rural Residential • Rural Traditional
• Multiple Use Residential • Rural Use Lands
• Rural Conservation • Sage Brush Lands
• Rural Lands • Other
• Rural Mixed Use
For the purposes of this staff report, all future references to "Non -Resource Lands" will be referred to as "Rural Use
Lands" to begin the transition away from this name while understanding that the Board may select another name.
III. PHASE 1- ADOPT RURAL USE LANDS COMPREHENSIVE PLAN POLICIES
Oregon case law directs counties to first adopt comprehensive policies that establish standards for re -
designating lands for Rural Use.' Policies should also clarify the purpose of a Rural Use Lands Comprehensive
Plan designation and corresponding zones. Staff offers the following policy framework for the Board's
consideration. Policies A2, B3, B4, C3, C4, D4 and D5 are deliberately left undefined. Prior to initiating a
legislative amendment, the Board should describe:
• Purpose of a Rural Use Lands designation;3 and
• Minimum parcel sizes for new parcels and a general description of land uses and development
standards.
Continuing the draft concept, staff offers Rural Use Lands -10, Rural Use Lands -20, and Rural Use Lands -30
zones with corresponding minimum parcel sizes.
A. Rural Use Lands - General Policies
1. The Rural Use Lands designation is provided for lands outside urban growth boundaries or
unincorporated community boundaries that are not deemed to be Agricultural lands or Forestry
lands as set forth in this Comprehensive Plan and Statewide Planning Goals 3 and 4.
2. The purpose(s) and intent of the designation is/are [describe].
2 Sommer v. Josephine County, 49 Or LUBA 134 (2005) states that, "Lands that are planned and zoned for resource use under Goals 3 and 4 may
be redesignated for nonresource use by applying an acknowledged comprehensive plan policy that establishes standards for such designations.
Where such a specific policy and local standards have been acknowledged, they apply in place of more general statewide planning goals
standards that would otherwise apply to such a redesignation."
3 Jackson County's purpose statement is as follows, "The designation is only applied where very low intensity rural development is found to be
appropriate over the foreseeable future due to topographic, environmental, natural hazard, public access, or needed public service constraints.
This designation is not intended for exception areas established pursuant to State Statewide Planning Goal 2 where Goals 3, 4 or 14 would
otherwise be applicable."
Deschutes County's Comprehensive Plan, Section 1.3 Land Use, briefly describes Comprehensive Plan Map designations. The following is the
Rural Residential Exception Area description. Rural Residential Exception Areas: To provide opportunities for rural residential living outside urban
growth boundaries and unincorporated communities, consistent with efficient planning of public services.
-2-
3. To qualify for a Rural Use Lands comprehensive plan designation and Rural Use Lands zoning, a
property must:
a. Not meet the State's soil and definitional standards of agricultural land.
i. Show that a majority of the lot or parcel contains 51% of Class VII or VIII soils as classified
by the NRCS;
ii. Even if a lot or parcel does not contain predominantly Class I -VI soils, demonstrate the site
is not suitable for farming by demonstrating it:
1. Has not or cannot be used for grazing or in conjunction with adjoining or nearby
agricultural or grazing operations.
2. Has no availability of water for farm irrigation.
3. Cannot be combined with any other adjacent land for farming to occur.
4. Is unnecessary to allow adjacent properties to continue to function as agricultural land.
b. Not meet the State's soil and definitional standards of forest land or forest productivity potential
by showing the entire parcel does not possess a potential productivity of at least 20 cubic feet
per acre per year, at culmination of mean annual increment, for one or more tree species native
to Deschutes County;
c. Not contain significant natural resources;
d. Be located in a fire -protection district or demonstrate it can be annexed;
e. Not significantly affect a County or State transportation system consistent with Statewide
Planning Goal 12;
f. Coordinate with irrigation districts to determine if they are impacted by a Rural Use Lands
designation and if so, identify conditions of approval that should be placed on the property
B. Rural Use Lands — Committed Residential Use Policies
1. The minimum parcel size for the Rural Use Lands -10 zone shall be 10 acres.
2. The Rural Use Lands -10 zone is for eligible properties committed to residential uses.
3. Uses allowed [describe].
4. Development standards include [describe].
5. Notwithstanding Policy A3c, lands committed to residential uses with significant Goal 5 natural
resource are eligible for a Rural Use Lands -10 zone subject to an ESEE analysis.
C. Rural Use Lands — Greater Bend Urban Growth Boundary Policies
1. The minimum parcel size for the Rural Use Lands -20 zone shall be 20 acres.
2. The Rural Use Lands -20 zone is for eligible properties proximate to the Bend Urban Growth
Boundary.
3. Uses allowed [describe] also retain underdeveloped land areas for the possibility of future urban
development as part of an urban growth boundary expansion.
4. Development standards include [describe].
' Alternatively, the Board may want to consider policies that apply the Rural Use Lands -20 zone to all eligible properties near an urban growth
boundary of Bend, La Pine, Redmond and Sisters. Phase 2 could focus exclusively around Bend or examine all eligible properties near Deschutes
County's four municipalities.
-3-
D. Rural Use Lands — Rural Low Density Policies
1. The minimum parcel size for the Rural Use Lands -30 zone shall be 30 acres.
2. The Rural Use Lands 30 -zone is for eligible properties not committed to residential uses or proximate
to the Bend Urban Growth Boundary.
3. Uses allowed [describe].
4. Development standards include [describe].
IV. PHASE 1—TIMELINE FOR INITIATING COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT
For discussion purposes, staff offers three options for initiating Phase 1.
Option 1
• Schedule work sessions with the Board in September to continue discussing, among others, the
purpose of a Rural Use Lands designation and general descriptions of minimum parcel sizes, land
uses and development standards.

o Conduct a Planning Commission hearing in November.
Option 2
• Schedule a joint work session with the Planning Commission on September 28 to discuss the draft
