Title 16, Addresses and Road Names
Chapter 16.16, Road Naming
Title 22, Deschutes County Development Procedures Ordinance
II. BASIC FINDINGS:
ROAD DESCRIPTION: In 2020, the road to be named was created as the result of a Road Dedication
approval (file no. 247-20-000434-RD) and simultaneous Road Vacation. The Road Vacation
effectively vacated a portion of the mapped road that did not align with the improved surface of the
road. The Road Dedication effectively dedicated a former portion of Tax Lot 100 that accurately
aligned with the improved road surface. This existing gravel road is +/-1,430 feet in length, extends

PUBLIC AGENCY COMMENTS: The Planning Division mailed notice on November 16, 2020 to
several public agencies and received the following comments:
Deschutes County Address Coordinator, Tracy Griffin
"Of the submitted list of road names below, Mock Road is the preferred name for approval.
(Mock Lane would also be correct as my interpretation of DCC 16.16.030 (E)(2)(d) states "Roads of reduced
right of way "or" curving roads etc. This extension of Mock Road is clearly a reduced right of way.)
Mock Dr. would not be approved as explained by Peter below.
Sunstone, Jasper and Cinder are all duplicate names and would not be approved.
Additional Agency comments:
The following parcels will have an address change due to the road name change:
17-11-0100-00402
17-11-0100-00407
17-11-0100-00408
The new address will be determined once the new road name is determined."
Deschutes County Senior Transportation Planner, Peter Russell:
"I would agree with the Property Address Coordinator that this is a north -south facility and thus triggers
the term Road in its name, per DCC 16.16.030(E)(2)(a). The road is almost overwhelmingly straight, not
curved, and thus does not meet the baseline test to be a Drive under DCC 16.16.030(E)(2)(e).
PH defer to the Property Address Coordinator in terms of which of the five names proposed below by the
applicant is acceptable. Personal opinion, I'm fine with Mock Road which gives the same name north and
south of Tumalo Reservoir Road."
Deschutes County Building Official, Randy Scheid:
'The Deschutes County Building Safety Divisions code mandates that Access, Egress, Setbacks, Fire & Life
Safety, Fire Fighting Water Supplies, etc. must be specifically addressed during the appropriate plan review
process with regard to any proposed structures and occupancies.
Accordingly, all Building Code required items will be addressed, when a specific structure, occupancy, and
type of construction is proposed and submitted for plan review."
The following agencies did not respond to the notice: Deschutes County Assessor, Deschutes
County Road Department, ODOT Region 4 Planning, Bend Fire Department, and Tumalo Irrigation
District.
PUBLIC COMMENTS: Notice was sent to the five (5) affected properties per DCC 16.16.030(B). The
applicant also posted a proposed road name sign. No written public comments were received.

[EXTERNAL EMAIL]
Dear Mr. Rawlings:
Per your NOTICE OF DECISION letter of June 7,2021, regarding the name of the road per
your correspondence, the following is of concern.
Initially, the request for the road change was initiated by me, Roger L. Johnson, Circle Bar J,
as contiguous neighbors. The Korish family (neighbors) were using the road for an illegal
logging and wood splitting operation which was in violation of the Exclusive Farm Use (EFU)
(18.16.020) designation. Additionally, the operation was in violation of the SOR Wildlife
Corridor (18.88.020) statutes. Significant litigation risk as well as log trucks were being driven
on personal driveways provided high risk for children and animals. (Complaint application 3
requests to comply #247-19-000007-CE.) DTD O1/10/2019.
Suzanne Gill King notified the neighbors that she was applying for a road easement on the
sighted property. Initially she was asked for the "name" to be used. She responded; Mock
Road.
Later the neighbors were asked by Mrs. King for a name.
It was decided to name the road: Tumalo Reservoir Lane.
This would require a simple wording and require minimal changing of address stamps, etc.
Monetary and other issues are affiliated with the name change. None wanted Mock Road as a
name.
All neighbors agreed to Tumalo Reservoir Lane on this name change. Mrs. King stated that
she had requested, on our and her behalf, the Deschutes County Community Development
department to change the name to Tumalo Reservoir Lane.
It was assumed by all contiguous neighbors that that name had been accepted.
It is our request that your Staff reconsider the name change and honor Mrs King and our other
neighbors' request!

DATE: June 16, 2021
SUBJECT: June 23rd Consent Agenda item for consideration of Board signature on Order
number 2021-021 for the proposed Road Name Assignment of Mock Road (CDD File
No. 247-20-000749-RN)
Background
The abutting property owner at 19175 Tumalo Reservoir Road initiated this road naming request as
the result of a condition of approval included in county file no. 247-20-000420-MP, 421-CU, 422-CU
requiring that the subject road be named prior to final approval. This Unnamed road was created
and publically dedicated as part of a County Road Dedication approval (file no. 247-20-000434-RD).
This improved gravel road is +/- 1,430 feet in length, extends south from Tumalo Reservoir Road,
and terminates near the southeast corner of Tax Lot 100 and the northwest corner of Tax Lot 407.
There are five (5) total properties with frontage along this unnamed road, and currently four (4) of
the five (5) properties take access from this road. The Board held a works session on this matter on
June 16, 2021.
Staff Decision
The Community Development Department (CDD) reviewed the requested road name assignment
under file no. 247-20-000749-RN. In consultation with the Deschutes County Property Address
Coordinator, staff reviewed the four (4) proposed names initially submitted and found that the
proposed names would not comply with the relevant county code provisions. In response, the
applicant submitted an additional five (5) proposed road names and staff selected Mock Road. Staff
found the name Mock Road complied with DCC 16.16.030(E)(1) and (2).
Under DCC 16.16.030(B) public comments on the proposed road name are limited to those parties
owning property abutting the affected road or having an address on the affected road. Staff mailed
notice of the application to these parties on November 16, 2020 and a notice of the staff decision
was mailed on June 7, 2021. One written comment was received by Roger Johnson, a neighboring
property owner on June 11, 2021. Mr. Johnson's comment highlighted his preference for a name

1 (541) 388-6575 @ cdd@deschutes.org @ www.deschutes.org/cd
other than "Mock Road" and provided some background information about his interactions with the
road naming applicant.
The 10-day appeal period ended June 17, 2021 and staff has not received any further questions,
written opposition, or appeals on the proposed name from those who meet the requirements of
DCC 16.16.030(B) and (G). Staff has scheduled a June 23, 2021 meeting with the Board to consider
signature of Board Order 2021-021 which implements the approval of Mock Road under file 247-
20-000749-RN.

would not comply with the relevant county code provisions. In response, the applicant submitted an
additional five (5) proposed road names and staff selected Mock Road. Staff found the name Mock Road

owner on June 11, 2021, Mr. Johnson's comment highlighted his preference for a name other than "Mock

applicant.

opposition, or appeals on the proposed name from those who meet the requirements of DCC
