• Of this amount approx. $250M was distributed directly to Washington and Multnomah Counties
and the City of Portland (>500K population) leaving a balance of $1.35B for distribution to the
rest of the state.
• $400M committed for distribution; $200M for reimbursement of prioritized COVID related
expenses and $200M for PPE, testing, tracing and isolation/quarantine expenses.
• First round of reimbursements is due Friday, May 22, for the period of March 1 through May 15,
and will be submitted by email including a specified reimbursement form and certification (see
attached pages).
Deschutes County Status
• The Finance department has been collecting time, material and service costs since the inception
of the pandemic.
• Researched all known possible funding sources.
• Greg Munn and James Wood have been acting as Finance Chief and Deputy Finance Chief,
respectively, for the Emergency Operations Center (EOC).
• We've reached out to all departments to solicit all possible additional costs that were not
submitted through the EOC.
• Eligible costs, based on 04.22.20 CRF guidance (attached), has been summarized on the draft
reimbursement form. Once finalized and certified, the request will be submitted by Friday, May

Association of Oregon Counties
Gina Firman Nikkel, Executive Director
1201 Court St. NE, Suite 300
Salem, OR 97301
Dear Ms. Firman Nikkel,
Thank you for your leadership during these challenging times. I value the state's partnership
with local government and know that we will only succeed in keeping Oregonians safe and
healthy during the COVID-19 pandemic if there is close collaboration among all levels of
government. You have a tremendous role to play in the state's success as community leaders,
protecting the lives of Oregonians in every corner of our state.
With the passage of the federal Coronavirus Aid, Relief, Economic Security Act ("CARES
Act"), Oregon received over $1.6 billion through the Coronavirus Relief Fund (CRF). I am
working with legislative leaders to strategically utilize these funds in the statewide fight against
the virus.
Support for local governments is an important component of our effort to address pandemic -
related costs. As you know, the federal government already sent $246.8 million directly to
jurisdictions with populations over 500,000: Washington County, Multnomah County, and the
city of Portland. For cities, counties, and special districts that did not receive CRF funds directly
from the federal government, I am committing $400 million of the state's CRF funds: $200
million will be set aside to directly reimburse them for expenses they have incurred related to
COVID-19; and $200 million will be used to continue covering costs related to personal
protective equipment, testing, contact tracing, and isolation/quarantine.
Local Government Reimbursement Plan
The first phase of reimbursements will cover costs incurred between March 1 and May 15, 2020
by local governments outside Multnomah and Washington Counties. We will prioritize eligible
costs related to medical expenses, public health costs, payroll for employees dedicated to
COVID-19, and expenses to facilitate compliance with COVID-19 measures. We assume this
first phase will use less than $50 million of the $200 million allocated. After we complete this
first phase, the state will issue guidance for a second round of submissions in July.

Local governments interested in seeking reimbursement must complete the attached Federal
Funding Certification and Request Forms by May 22, 2020. Funding requests (both the
certification and request form) should be submitted to CoronavirusRelietFundL&Oregon.L'ov.
All requests for reimbursement must comply with all federal restrictions for the CRF funds. The
U.S. Department of Treasury has provided guidance' to interpret these criteria. In particular,
please note that CRF resources are not allowed to replace lost government revenue. I am,
however, continuing to push the federal government to provide $1 trillion in direct and flexible
relief to states and local governments to help make-up for COVID-19 revenue losses.
It is clear that COVID-19 will be at the center of our efforts to serve Oregonians for the
foreseeable future, and we must continue working together in all aspects of the recovery effort.
Thank you for your continued partnership.
Sincerely,
kA't 6W__
Governor Kate Brown

May 18, 2020 5 Deschutes County 05.22.20_CRF Request Form
Coronavirus Relief Fund
Guidance for State, Territorial, Local, and Tribal Governments
April 22, 2020
The purpose of this document is to provide guidance to recipients of the funding available under section
601(a) of the Social Security Act, as added by section 5001 of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic
Security Act ("CARES Act"). The CARES Act established the Coronavirus Relief Fund (the "Fund")
and appropriated $150 billion to the Fund. Under the CARES Act, the Fund is to be used to make
payments for specified uses to States and certain local governments; the District of Columbia and U.S.
Territories (consisting of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, the United States Virgin Islands, Guam,
American Samoa, and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands); and Tribal governments.
The CARES Act provides that payments from the Fund may only be used to cover costs that —
are necessary expenditures incurred due to the public health emergency with respect to
the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19);
2. were not accounted for in the budget most recently approved as of March 27, 2020 (the
date of enactment of the CARES Act) for the State or government; and
3. were incurred during the period that begins on March 1, 2020, and ends on December 30,
2020.'
The guidance that follows sets forth the Department of the Treasury's interpretation of these limitations
on the permissible use of Fund payments.
Necessary expenditures incurred due to the public health emergency
The requirement that expenditures be incurred "due to" the public health emergency means that
expenditures must be used for actions taken to respond to the public health emergency. These may
include expenditures incurred to allow the State, territorial, local, or Tribal government to respond
directly to the emergency, such as by addressing medical or public health needs, as well as expenditures
incurred to respond to second -order effects of the emergency, such as by providing economic support to
those suffering from employment or business interruptions due to COVID- 1 9-related business closures.
Funds may not be used to fill shortfalls in government revenue to cover expenditures that would not
otherwise qualify under the statute. Although a broad range of uses is allowed, revenue replacement is
not a permissible use of Fund payments.
The statute also specifies that expenditures using Fund payments must be "necessary." The Department
of the Treasury understands this term broadly to mean that the expenditure is reasonably necessary for its
intended use in the reasonable judgment of the government officials responsible for spending Fund
payments.
Costs not accounted for in the budget most recently approved as of March 27, 2020
The CARES Act also requires that payments be used only to cover costs that were not accounted for in
the budget most recently approved as of March 27, 2020. A cost meets this requirement if either (a) the
cost cannot lawfully be funded using a line item, allotment, or allocation within that budget or (b) the cost
I See Section 601(d) of the Social Security Act, as added by section 5001 of the CARES Act.
A
is for a substantially different use from any expected use of funds in such a line item, allotment, or
allocation.
The "most recently approved" budget refers to the enacted budget for the relevant fiscal period for the
particular government, without taking into account subsequent supplemental appropriations enacted or
other budgetary adjustments made by that government in response to the COVID-19 public health
emergency. A cost is not considered to have been accounted for in a budget merely because it could be
met using a budgetary stabilization fund, rainy day fund, or similar reserve account.
Costs incurred during the period that begins on March 1, 2020, and ends on December 30, 2020
A cost is "incurred" when the responsible unit of government has expended funds to cover the cost.
Nonexclusive examples of eligible expenditures
Eligible expenditures include, but are not limited to, payment for:
1. Medical expenses such as:
• COVID- 1 9-related expenses of public hospitals, clinics, and similar facilities.
• Expenses of establishing temporary public medical facilities and other measures to increase
COVID-19 treatment capacity, including related construction costs.
• Costs of providing COVID-19 testing, including serological testing.
• Emergency medical response expenses, including emergency medical transportation, related
to COVID-19.
• Expenses for establishing and operating public telemedicine capabilities for COVID-19-
related treatment.
2. Public health expenses such as:
• Expenses for communication and enforcement by State, territorial, local, and Tribal
governments of public health orders related to COVID-19.
• Expenses for acquisition and distribution of medical and protective supplies, including
sanitizing products and personal protective equipment, for medical personnel, police officers,
social workers, child protection services, and child welfare officers, direct service providers
for older adults and individuals with disabilities in community settings, and other public
health or safety workers in connection with the COVID-19 public health emergency.
• Expenses for disinfection of public areas and other facilities, e.g., nursing homes, in response
to the COVID-19 public health emergency.
• Expenses for technical assistance to local authorities or other entities on mitigation of
COVID- 1 9-related threats to public health and safety.
• Expenses for public safety measures undertaken in response to COVID-19.
• Expenses for quarantining individuals.
3. Payroll expenses for public safety, public health, health care, human services, and similar
employees whose services are substantially dedicated to mitigating or responding to the COVID-
19 public health emergency.
7
4. Expenses of actions to facilitate compliance with COVID-19-related public health measures, such
as:
• Expenses for food delivery to residents, including, for example, senior citizens and other
vulnerable populations, to enable compliance with COVID-19 public health precautions.
• Expenses to facilitate distance learning, including technological improvements, in connection
with school closings to enable compliance with COVID-19 precautions.
• Expenses to improve telework capabilities for public employees to enable compliance with
COVID-19 public health precautions.
• Expenses of providing paid sick and paid family and medical leave to public employees to
enable compliance with COVID-19 public health precautions.
• COVID- I 9-related expenses of maintaining state prisons and county jails, including as relates
to sanitation and improvement of social distancing measures, to enable compliance with
COVID-19 public health precautions.
• Expenses for care for homeless populations provided to mitigate COVID-19 effects and
enable compliance with COVID-19 public health precautions.
5. Expenses associated with the provision of economic support in connection with the COVID-19
public health emergency, such as:
• Expenditures related to the provision of grants to small businesses to reimburse the costs of
business interruption caused by required closures.
• Expenditures related to a State, territorial, local, or Tribal government payroll support
program.
• Unemployment insurance costs related to the COVID-19 public health emergency if such
costs will not be reimbursed by the federal government pursuant to the CARES Act or
otherwise.
6. Any other COVID-19-related expenses reasonably necessary to the function of government that
satisfy the Fund's eligibility criteria.
Nonexclusive examples of ineligible expenditures
The following is a list of examples of costs that would not be eligible expenditures of payments from the
Fund.
1. Expenses for the State share of Medicaid.3
2. Damages covered by insurance.
3. Payroll or benefits expenses for employees whose work duties are not substantially dedicated to
mitigating or responding to the COVID-19 public health emergency.
2 In addition, pursuant to section 5001(b) of the CARES Act, payments from the Fund may not be expended for an
elective abortion or on research in which a human embryo is destroyed, discarded, or knowingly subjected to risk of
injury or death. The prohibition on payment for abortions does not apply to an abortion if the pregnancy is the result
of an act of rape or incest; or in the case where a woman suffers from a physical disorder, physical injury, or
physical illness, including a life -endangering physical condition caused by or arising from the pregnancy itself, that
would, as certified by a physician, place the woman in danger of death unless an abortion is performed.
Furthermore, no government which receives payments from the Fund may discriminate against a health care entity
on the basis that the entity does not provide, pay for, provide coverage of, or refer for abortions.
s See 42 C.F.R. § 433.51 and 45 C.F.R. § 75.306.
E
4. Expenses that have been or will be reimbursed under any federal program, such as the
reimbursement by the federal government pursuant to the CARES Act of contributions by States
to State unemployment funds.
5. Reimbursement to donors for donated items or services.
6. Workforce bonuses other than hazard pay or overtime.
7. Severance pay.
8. Legal settlements.

Code Enforcement consists of three Code Enforcement Specialists and one volunteer. The program is
managed by the Coordinated Services Administrative Manager and is supported by a law enforcement
technician from the Sheriffs Department and operating divisions. The Code Enforcement Division is
responsible for investigating code violation complaints to ensure compliance with land use, onsite
wastewater disposal, building and solid waste codes (by contract with the Solid Waste Department), and
provides direct service on contract to the City of La Pine for solid waste violations. The program's overriding
goal is to achieve voluntary compliance. If necessary, citations are issued for prosecution in Circuit Court or
before a Code Enforcement Hearings Officer. The program continues to adapt to the County's challenges of
growth and diversification, incorporating new measures to ensure timely code compliance.
While voluntary compliance is the primary objective, an ever-growing number of cases require further code
enforcement action because of delayed correction or non-compliance. Through the continuing
development and refinement of departmental procedures for administrative civil penalty, Code
Enforcement is obtaining compliance from citations rather than court adjudication resulting in greater cost
recovery. A disconcerting trend is the need for County abatement in some cases. In abatement, the County
corrects the violations with the priority on compliance. Abatement action is reserved for matters of chronic
nuisance and public health and safety. In response to this trend, Code Enforcement is closely coordinating
with other County departments in the development and enactment of abatement plans.
✓ During 2019, 1,002 new cases were received and 539 cases were resolved. This is a 12% increase in
cases from the previous year.
✓ Provided community education through regular presentations to local real estate groups and title
companies. Additionally, staff presented as guest speaker at the 2019 Department of Environmental
Quality Summit, focusing on options regarding general compliance with local and state agencies.
✓ Partnered with the Solid Waste Department to implement the use of a voucher system offering financial
assistance to customers meeting eligibility criteria in order to facilitate timely compliance.
✓ Continued to partner with departments within the County to resolve difficult cases. Coordination
between departments ensures efficiency of operations and avoids overlapping efforts, thus allowing staff
to conduct a thorough investigation on behalf of community members.
✓ Created a dashboard for code enforcement rnetrics such as "cases opened and closed by year", "current
active cases" and "current assigned cases by staff member", allowing an assessment of live data and the
opportunity to adjust cases and staff as necessary.
✓ Coordinate with Planning, Building Safety and Environmental Soils division to redefine the County's
process for decommissioning unlawful second dwellings.
✓ John Griley earned the Code Enforcement Professional Award at the Oregon Code Enforcement
Association.

Statewide Planning Goal 1, Citizen Involvement, requires cities and counties to create a citizen involvement
program that provides opportunities for community participation in land use planning processes and
decisions.
Land use legislation, policies and implementation
measures made by Oregonians nearly 50 years ago
helped shape Oregon's urban and rural environments.
Likewise, choices made today will ultimately shape
these areas in the future. Successful land use planning
occurs through an open and public process that
provides room for information gathering, analysis and
vigorous debate. Deschutes County's Community
Involvement program is defined in Section 1.2 of the
Comprehensive Plan.
This chapter identifies the County Planning Commission as the committee for citizen involvement. It also
contains the County's Community Involvement goal and corresponding five policies that comply with Goal
1.This report briefly discusses the noteworthy community involvement actions undertaken by the Planning
Division in 2019. The report is intended to provide county residents and stakeholders with a tool to assess
its effectiveness and offer additional suggestions the County can utilize to ensure that its diverse
communities remain actively involved in land use planning discussions.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Deschutes County Board of Commissioners
FROM: Nick Lelack, AICP, Director
DATE: May 20, 2020
SUBJECT: CDD Draft Work Plan for Fiscal Year (FY) 2020-21 / Work Session
The Board of County Commissioners (Board) will hold a public hearing on the Community Development
Department's (CDD) Annual Report and Work Plan on Wednesday, June 10. The purpose of this work session
is to prepare the Board for that hearing. Nick Lelack, CDD Director, will attend the work session and provide
an overview of the document. Other CDD management team members will be available remotely using
Zoom to answer questions.
I. BACKGROUND
Each spring, the Community Development Department (CDD) prepares an annual work plan describing
proposed projects for the coming fiscal year. A review of the draft work plan provides the Planning
Commission, Historic Landmarks Commission, customers and partner agencies, residents, and the Board the
opportunity to provide input, including additions, modifications and possible re -prioritization. The work
plan describes the most important objectives and proposed projects in each CDD division based on:
1. Board annual goals and policies;
2. Carry-over projects from current or prior years;
3. Changes in state law;
4. Grants/funding sources; and
5. Public comments.
It also serves as the context within which new projects that arise during the course of the year are prioritized
and undertaken.
II. DRAFT FY 2020-21 WORK PLAN
CDD drafted the Work Plan in preparation for the Planning Commission's review beginning in late March.
However, when the COVID-19 pandemic struck in the middle of the month and Planning Commission
meetings were suspended until April 23, CDD revised the draft Work Plan to prepare for and respond to
COVID-19 impacts. Specifically, the draft Work Plan addresses fiscal issues, operational challenges, and
modifying procedures as necessary during and temporarily following the pandemic.
Fiscal Issues:
• Establishing a financial contingency plan detailing CDD's course of action as it relates to reserve fund
reduction and resource allocation decision -making strategies in response to unknown economic and
development activity conditions.
• Ensuring financial stability and ongoing operations while navigating the uncertainty of COVID-19.
Operational Challenges:
• Maintaining high customer service levels with appropriate staffing levels while practicing social
distancing, among other safety measures to protect everyone and expanding training for CDD's
online services and public meeting technologies.
• Adjusting CDD's operations based on Oregon's state of emergency declaration and recommended
practices, including, but not limited to, ongoing in -person front counter services in Bend and at
satellite offices, building and septic inspections, and code enforcement investigations.
• Developing and implementing new public hearing and overall citizen engagement strategies for
meaningful public involvement in planning projects as social distancing and similar measures will
likely be necessary for at least part of the fiscal year.
In addition, the Planning Division recommends initiating the Comprehensive Plan Update in FY 2021-22 (late
fall 2021) rather than in FY 2020-21 (winter/early spring) due to unknown economic impacts, available
financial resources, and public involvement opportunities.
III. PLANNING COMMISSION & HISTORIC LANDMARKS COMMISSION (HLC) RECOMMENDATIONS
On April 23, 2020 the Planning Commission conducted a work session on the Annual Report and FY 20-21
Work Plan. The Commission will conduct a public hearing on May 14 (after this staff memorandum is/was
submitted to the Board for the meeting packet).
On May 4, the HLC recommended approval of the draft Work Plan as proposed.
IV. PLANNING DIVISION DRAFT FY 2020-21 WORK PLAN
The Planning Division draft Work Plan consistently generates public interest. The Planning Commission
requested at their work session the following matrix to better understand the County's role and resources
required for each project. Table 1 identifies projects proposed in the Planning Division's FY 20-21 Work Plan as
well as annual reporting responsibilities, committee participation, and COVID-19 responsibilities.' It also
specifies whether Deschutes County is taking a lead or coordinating role. Lastly, Table 1 recognizes staffing
resource requirements for each project. They range from "minor" to "significant" as noted below:
1 Annual reporting responsibilities include tracking destination resort overnight lodging requirements, population forecasting by
Portland State University, and marijuana inspections. Table 1 does not list ongoing responsibilities involving regional and
statewide transportation committees.
-2-
• A "minor" rating equates to 2 to 6 months to complete and 0.25-0.75 full time equivalent (FTE) of long
range planning staff.
• A "moderate" rating equates to 4 to 8 months to complete and 0.5 to 1.0 FTE or more.
• A "significant" rating spans 6 to 12 months or longer and requires 1.0 to 2.0 FTE with possible
consultants.

Draft CDD FY 2020/2021 Work Plan and 2019 Annual Report
MEMORANDUM
TO: Deschutes County Board of Commissioners
FROM: Nick Lelack, AICP, Director
DATE: May 20, 2020
SUBJECT: Supplemental Memorandum: CDD Draft Work Plan Fiscal Year (FY) 2020-21 / Work Session
The memorandum submitted for this agenda pre -dated the Planning Commission public hearing and
recommendation, which was held on Thursday, May 14.
Please find below a summary of the Planning Commission's public hearing and recommendations:
The Planning Commission unanimously recommended approval of the Planning Division's FY 20-21 Work Plan with
the following additions:
1. Add a special acknowledgement that the department remained open for business during the COVID-19
pandemic (on page 4, Introduction).
2. In the Planning Division section, add a new work plan project to track the economic recovery by establishing
indicators to determine whether the county is improving or worsening.
Staff notes that CDD does not track economic indicators. Rather, the County supports and relies on
economic organizations, such as Economic Development for Central Oregon (EDCO), Business Oregon, the
Central Oregon Visitors Association (COVA), the Chambers of Commerce, the Oregon Employment
Department, and similar organizations for such information.
3. In the Planning Division section, add a new work plan project to: "Initiate Legislative Code Amendment to
require review and use of reasonable standards and conditions for establishing "short term rental" (STR)
units in the Rural Residential Zone — RR —10. STR units are those dwellings being rented out for less than 30
consecutive days. Consider regional variation in the standards, such as Sisters Country establishing similar
standards to the City of Sisters."
A member of the public proposed this new project, and the Planning Commission both supported it and
added additional language to consider the regional variations in the standards.
While not in the Planning Commission's purview, the Commission also recommended the Board of County
Commissioners amend its FY 2020-21 Goals & Objectives to include a new Objective under the Economic Vitality
Goal "to address reopening and re-establishing the County's economy." The Board's Goals are summarized on page
9 in the document.
The Commission was highly complimentary of the overall document, including accolades for staff in their motion to
recommend approval of the Work Plan as amended.
Separately, on Wednesday, May 20, Communications Director Whitney Hale, in coordination with CDD, will issue a
press release announcing the Board's public hearing on the Draft CDD FY 2020-21 Work Plan scheduled for
Wednesday, June 10 and inviting public comments.
Work Plan highlights in the press release include:
• Maintaining high customer service levels with appropriate staffing while practicing social distancing, among
other safety measures to protect everyone, and expanding training for CDD's online services
• Ensuring the department's financial stability and implementing financial contingency measures if economic
conditions warrant such action
• Adjust public involvement strategies due to the COVID-19 pandemic to maximize participation
• Supporting opportunities to provide affordable housing, including developing a comprehensive Deschutes
County housing strategy
• Conducting community conversations to consider wildfire mitigation hazard map and development code
amendments
• Coordinating with and supporting our four cities in their efforts to update their comprehensive, growth
management, affordable housing, and transportation plans
• Evaluating new state wildlife habitat inventories, and conducting community conversations regarding new or
updated protection measures
• Preparing to initiate the County's Comprehensive Plan Update beginning in late 2021
• Implementing a potential new state law to allow accessory dwelling units on rural residential lands
• Participating in processes to update County transportation plans

AGENDA REQUEST & STAFF REPORT
For Board of Commissioners BOCC Wednesday Meeting of May 20, 2020
DATE: May 14, 2020
FROM: Whitney Hale, Administrative Services, 541-330-4640
TITLE OF AGENDA ITEM:
FY 2021 Video Lottery Fund Allocation Continuation
RECOMMENDATION & ACTION REQUESTED:
Discuss remaining items to develop expenditure plan for Video Lottery Fund (165) in fiscal
year 2021.
SUMMARY: Each year, the Board of Commissioners reviews anticipated revenue from
the County's portion of video lottery proceeds for the upcoming fiscal year and develops
an expenditure plan that has historically included funding for economic development
activities, various projects, support for other organizations, and Board grant programs.
Based on the current situation and future unknown impacts of COVID-19, staff predicts
that state lottery funding will decrease due to restaurant and bar closures, while the
demand for funding and support from those dollars will increase due to emergency
response to community needs.
On April 22nd, the Board began allocating those video lottery funds. Since then,
Deschutes County received the final FY20 quarterly payment, which now reflects as a
reduction to the FY21 beginning balance.
During the meeting, the Board will discuss how to address the decrease and several
follow-up items from the April 22nd discussion. Attached are supporting documents
intended to assist with this process.
ATTENDANCE: Whitney Hale, Communications Director

ADMIIN�ISTRATIIIVE SERVICES
To: Deschutes County Board of Commissioners
From: Laura Skundrick, Administrative Analyst
Date: May 20, 2020
RE: Continuation of Video Lottery Fund discussion
Commissioners,
At the Board meeting on April 22, 2020, the Board began the process of allocating FY21
projected video lottery funds.
On May 6th, Finance received the final quarterly payment for FY20 of $116,970, a 50%
reduction from FY20 quarterly payments. This reduction was even larger than projected,
creating a reduced FY21 beginning balance than was discussed on April 22" d. The
explanation received from the Oregon Department of Administrative Services (DAS)
provided that 50% of revenues are being withheld in order to cover debt service payments
on lottery revenue bonds. DAS has estimated that the next quarterly payment (FY21 Q1)
will be reduced even greater.
Staff is seeking direction on how the Board would like to proceed given the reduction in
FY21 beginning balance, as well as several remaining items from the April 22nd discussion,
as outlined below.
Economic Development of Central Oregon (EDCO)
The Board allocated $223,200 of video lottery funds to EDCO, then discussed
supplementing with additional funds to either meet the FY20 allocation of $248,000
or the FY21 request of $290,000.
BendNEXT Childcare request
The Board requested more information, attached.
Affordable Housing
The Board asked whether the $20,000 allocated for a potential affordable housing
project support in FY20 was spent. Staff confirmed it was not spent in FY20, however
it was reflected in FY21 beginning balance.

- Potential Discretionary Grant QS
The Board requested information from service partners and previous grant
recipients about fundraisers cancelled and increased service demand due to COVID-
19. Those responses have been collected and are being provided to the Board.
Additional responses to Board questions from the April 22n' discussion are below.
❑ Family Access Network statistics
Chair Adair inquired about the number of children reported as homeless in FAN's
Service Partner report. Julie Lyche, FAN Executive Director, provided an explanation,
summarized here: The Federal McKinney Vento laws through the Department of
Education defines homelessness differently than HUD, and the "Point in Time
Count" McKinney Vento counts families that are doubled/tripled up in one
apartment or home or that are living in trailers with no hook ups (water/sewer),
while HUD does not count those, therefore these numbers are always higher. Julie is
available to follow up with Commissioners to discuss further.
❑ Special Transportation Fund (STF) local match
Commissioner Henderson asked whether the $2,500 allocated for STF local match
with La Pine rural transportation services could be designated in the future as a
Statewide Transportation Improvement Fund (STIF) project. Cascades East Transit
confirmed that it can be, and staff will pursue this during project discussions for the
next biennium.

BendNEXT/Bend Chamber — Child Care Accelerator Initiative
March 15, 2020
Amount Requested: $10,000
501c3: 93-1224982
Overview:
Central Oregon is a recognized child care desert. One in three children in
our region is in need of a child care spot. This has had a drastic impact on
children, families and employers. A new study just released by The Center
for American Progress ranks Oregon the highest in parents experiencing
job disruptions as a result of child care issues at over 14 percent.
Regionally, we are in need of thousands of spots.

Demand
6,930 children 0-2 years
4,620 children 3-5 years
(OSU Early Care & Education Profiles using PSU Center for Population
Research-August2018)
To help address this need, a cross -sector group including The Bend Chamber, Governor Brown's
Regional Solutions team, Better Together, The Early Learning Hub, Neighbor Impact, Central Oregon
Health Council, TRACES, OSU-C and COCC created a Central Oregon Child Care Accelerator position to
work with employers, providers, brokers and more to create additional spots. BendNEXT, the 501c3 arm
of the Bend Chamber of Commerce stepped up to host and administer this initiative and accelerator
position.
The overall goal of this initiative in the short term is to break down barriers to developing more high
quality and affordable child care options in the region, with an eye toward increasing available child care
openings by 1,000 in the next two years. In order to achieve this goal, various solutions will be required
to help providers and employers add more spots. Some identified strategies include:
- Create a low-interest/grant program to assist providers/development of facilities; involve banks
and other institutions to offer low interest loans
Establish a capital campaign to create a child care "fund"
Create a regional building inspector to streamline facilities
RFI out to COAR and COBA for pro-bono work/reduced costs for child care facility
construction/rehab
- Continue to work and support local governments on improving policies and reducing barriers to
create more child care spots
- Work with COCC and OSU-Cascades to explore child care facilities co -located with our higher
learning institutions
- Create and fund positions to help providers, employers and property owners navigate state and
local requirements
The Central Oregon Child Care Accelerator position has been partially funded thanks to public, private
and non-profit entities. We have raised over $100,000 to cover the position to date.
We are requesting support to fill the remaining gap for the Central Oregon Child Care Accelerator
position. Current needs are roughly $30,000 to fundraise to help cover expenses related to website,
collateral material development and salary for year one ending in November of 2020.
La u ra,
2-1-1 has two primary responsibilities: 1) daily connecting people (via phone, website, email and text) to
needed services utilizing its omnibus database of services 2) service as the primary provider of
information for the public during disasters, in support of government emergency management
departments.
I believe you have already received information about role #1... the number of assistance requests from
Deschutes County that 2-1-1 handles, an average of 131/month. While that is critically important to
those people who need help finding and connecting with needed services, it is role #2 that I believe is
most valuable to communities like Deschutes County during disasters and other times of crisis ... like right
now during the COVID-19 pandemic. 2-1-1 is the recognized and broadly advertised place for members
of the public to turn for COVID related information including virus testing, stimulus payments,
unemployment and where to find childcare, food, shelter, rent/mortgage assistance & utility assistance,
etc.. During the period of the pandemic and Oregon's stay at home order, statewide calls to 2-1-1
increased several hundred percent from an average of 7,000 calls per week to a high of 41,000 calls per
week in late March/early April.
United Way of Deschutes County has always evaluated programs and services for efficiency and
effectiveness, and continues to do that today. Based on current circumstances, including anticipating
diminishing revenues, we are adjusting our priorities and investments. While 2-1-1 is a valuable service
to our community, especially during these extraordinary times, we believe that Deschutes County's
continued investment in 2-1-1 may no longer be necessary for the continuation of those services to the
citizens of Deschutes County. We respectfully request that 2-1-1 be removed from consideration for
funding this year.
Please feel free to follow up with me regarding this request.
Respectfully,

Assistance League of Bend
- Cancelled Kitchen Kaleidoscope fundraiser event (June). Estimated lost revenue $30,000-
$40,000.
- Service demand is anticipated to greatly increase due to families facing
unemployment/reduced wages. The population served by ALB are those hit hardest by
COVID-19, Deschutes County's poorest children and adults.
Bethlehem inn (Service Partner)
u �ci v
- Annual fundraising dinner (May 19) is now a virtual event. Had projected approximately
$300,000 (18% of annual revenue). However, the Inn's 2020 sponsors have elected to
maintain their support of this virtual event. Deschutes County is one of our compassionate
partners, who has chosen to sponsor the Inn's annual Spotlight on Homelessness virtual
event scheduled for May 19. We have received $2,500 from the County in support of this
effort for which we are grateful.
Service demand is anticipated in the upcoming year to have a dramatic increase for services
provided by the Inn, given the significant economic impact projected for our region and
beyond. While it is too soon to understand the gravity and the precise impact, the Inn's
leadership team is working to prepare for a surge in demand and a decline in community
donations.
CLEAR Alliance
- Cancelled Tobacco, Marijuana & E-Cigarettes Course (TMEC) training (March 18th) and
subsequently, revenue was lost.
- Virtual training held on May 6th 2020, offered online which incurred additional technical
costs and staff time to restructure our curriculum to an online format.
- Unknown status of the CLEAR Alliance Oregon Drug Education Conference at Eagle Crest
Resort (October 1 & 2). Deposits have been paid and speaker contracts are underway so
naturally this is also a cause for concern if the conference cannot go on as planned.
- Service demand has increased due to many educators and representatives from other
organizations requesting access to our TMEC curriculum and educational support materials
in an online format, which includes both instructor trainings and classroom instruction for
students online. We are moving towards creating this online version as fast as possible but
again, this incurs many costs.
Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) of Central Oregon (Service Partner)
- Postponed or potentially cancelled signature gala fundraising event (May 30). Projected to
raise $160,000, a quarter of annual organizational budget, accounting for 75% of
unrestricted dollars toward general operations.
- Service demand is projected at a 25% increase expected once stay home restrictions are
lifted, approximately 264 unduplicated children needing CASA services up from 211.
Currently children are not coming into contact with mandatory reporters, but prior to the
pandemic impacts being felt in Oregon, Deschutes County set a new record for children
entering foster care due to abuse or neglect. Given that, and the increase in family stressors
and child abuse predictive factors, the number of children at risk for abuse has increased
over recent months, and will see more demand for our services in the coming months.
- Existing work has continued in remote ways, and due to the expected surge, a distance
learning training class is running now for new CASA volunteers for the next eight weeks,
training a new cohort of volunteers ready by mid -June.
DAWNS House
- Cancelled annual fundraising event (May 9). Estimated revenue loss of $15,000 to $20,000.

operations and capacity. Increase is likely due to other shelters not performing intakes due
to quarantine, and the expected closure of Juniper Ridge.
Family Access Network (Service Partner)
Cancelled annual wine event (May). Estimated revenue loss of $20,000-$25,000 per year
which supports FAN services in local schools.
- Service demand has increased due to advocates helping families access school lunches and
groceries, providing support for those that are unemployed, and helping families navigate
the current support systems available.

increase from last year at this time.
I Bari (Service Partner)
- Status unknown of annual fundraiser Oregon High Desert Classics Horseshow scheduled for
last 2 weeks in July. If the event does take place, we anticipate significant changes will be
made to allow for social distancing. And anticipate this affecting total revenue from the
event. Revenue from the OHDC is over $200,000 annually. These funds support all programs
and services.
- Additionally, J Bar J Youth Services is the parent organization for Big Brothers Big Sisters of
Central Oregon (BBBSCO). BBBSCO had to cancel their annual fundraiser Bowl for Kid's
Sake, Ir I .,: �n I-Sti _bar revenue as a result ul Cuvlu- 17. r_ I I Ialed I evef lue loss Is $30,000, which Is a substantial part of

as a result of Covid-19. Street based staff are continuing outreach (and providing basic
needs supplies) for those living on the streets.

programs run out.

- Virtual event for Annual Healing Hearts Luncheon which created a $50,000 shortfall.
- Unknown status of the Cork & Barrel fundraising event, a 3-day food and wine event series
in July with approximately 500 guests per night, will not be able to take place as designed. If
cancelled, expecting a revenue shortfall of at least $250,000 in unrestricted funds, critical to
supporting KIDS Center general operating costs and direct services including child abuse
prevention, evaluation and treatment.
- Service Demand is anticipated to increase for specialized child abuse evaluation services
similar to what we experienced due to the recession in 2008. The risk for child abuse is at an
unprecedented high due to isolation and lack of contact with mandatory reporters. There
was an initial decline in referrals due to social distancing and stay home mandates making it
difficult for mandated reporters to identify children at risk. Referrals are slowly starting to
begin coming in.

children or being over the age of 60 and at greater risk of contracting the disease.
Neighborimpact has helped by sending staff and volunteers to assist.

- Service demand for Marys Place Supervised Visitation and Safe Exchange Program
anticipating that the stress of this pandemic on families experiencing domestic violence will
result in a significant surge in demand for our services once restrictions are lifted.
Service Demand for Saving Grace is anticipated to increase in needs for months to come.
While the amount of calls decreased, the level of severity increased. One-on-one counseling
has been made available remotely but not every client feels safe or comfortable with that
format. So the waiting list has decreased but that is by no means a positive turn caused by
the pandemic. Lastly, which thousands of Central Oregonians suddenly unemployed, it is
only a matter of time before stress and financial anxiety in homes spill over into our social
services industry, including needs for emergency shelter, housing, legal advocacy and more.
