AGENDA REQUEST & STAFF REPORT
For Board of Commissioners BOCC Wednesday Meeting of February 26, 2020
DATE: February 20, 2020
FROM: Cody Smith, Road Department,
TITLE OF AGENDA ITEM:
Consideration of Board Signature of Resolution No. 2020-008, a Resolution to Acquire
Right of Way for Construction of Road Improvements on Old Bend Redmond Hwy and
Tumalo Rd
RECOMMENDATION & ACTION REQUESTED:
Motion for approval of Resolution No. 2020-008.
BACKGROUND AND POLICY IMPLICATIONS:
In 2016, Road Department commenced a Road Safety Audit for the corridor including SW
Canal Blvd, Old Bend -Redmond Hwy, Tumalo Rd, and Deschutes Market Rd. In August
2017, the road safety audit report, summarizing the audit findings and recommendations, was
finalized. The report provided analysis and conceptual design for improvements at five
intersections along the corridor, including the intersection of Old Bend Redmond Hwy and
Tumalo Rd. The report identified a preferred conceptual plan for the intersection that included
construction of a roundabout.
Department staff presented the report and conceptual plans to the Board at their August 23,
2017 work session meeting, during which the Board expressed positive comments for the
recommended conceptual plans. An open house event was held on October 11, 2017, at the
Pleasant Ridge Community Hall to present the conceptual plans to the public and obtain public
feedback. Public comments were generally supportive of the recommended conceptual plan.
The Board approved Contract No. 2017-663 with Parametrix, Inc. on November 6, 2017 to
provide engineering. utility coordination, and right of way services for the preferred conceptual
plan. The project construction plans are 60 percent complete, and general information notices
regarding right of way acquisitions have be mailed to affected adjacent property owners.
Adoption of Resolution No. 2020-008 will authorize Road Department and Legal Department to
negotiate with the owners of adjoining properties for the property interests required for the
project. All resulting purchase agreements and conveyance instruments will be presented to
the Board of County Commissioners for acceptance upon completing negotiations.
FISCAL IMPLICATIONS: Road Department will present purchase agreements and
conveyance instruments to Board of County Commissioners upon completing negotiations with
property owners.
