TITLE OF AGENDA ITEM:
Possible Hearing or Continuation to 1 :30 pm of the Public Hearing and Consideration of Board
Signature of Order 2012-006 Approving Formation ofa Deschutes County Chapter 451 Service District
for Emergency Communication Services, Withdrawal of Properties Currently in the Emergency
Communications Services District in Deschutes County, and setting a Public Hearing.
PUBLIC HEARING ON THIS DATE? Yes
BACKGROUND AND POLICY IMPLICATIONS:
At this hearing, the Board of County Commissioners will convene the hearing as both the governing
body of Deschutes County and as the governing body for the Deschutes County 9-1-1 Service District.
For more background, please see the Agenda Request for the 1 :30 pm hearing scheduled for this same
day.
In Order 2011-027, the Board ordered the first public hearing on the formation of the new 9-1-1 district
to be held at 1 :30 pm. The initial published and posted notice, however, inadvertently said 10:00 am.
Thus, although corrected notices were published and posted, in the event that members of the public
saw only the initial notice, the Board must convene and open the hearing at 10:00 am. If no members
of the public are in attendance at that time, the Board may immediately continue the hearing to I :30 pm
that day. If members of the public attend the morning hearing and cannot return at the 1 :30 pm hearing,
the the Board should take their testimony, then continue the hearing to the 1 :30 pm. All members of the
Board may attend by telephone and the speaker phone will be located in the Barnes hearing room.
FISCAL IMPLICATIONS:
See Agenda Request for 1 :30 pm hearing
RECOMMENDATION & ACTION REQUESTED:
Take testimony of any members of the public in attendance, then continue the hearing to 1:30 pm.

Services, Withdrawal of Properties Currently *

WHEREAS, on December 19,2011, the Board of County Commissioners ("Board") initiated
formation of a new County Chapter 451 service district to provide enhanced 9-1-1 emergency
reporting services, together with withdrawal of the area in Deschutes County in the existing district;
and,
WHEREAS, at its hearing of January 18, 2012, the Board considered the information and
recommendations of staff and heard public testimony on whether to approve formation and
withdrawal, including the need for adequate long-term funding for such a critical service, the economic
feasibility of a new district, its conformance with applicable laws, the appropriate boundaries, the
appropriate permanent tax rate limit and other relevant matters; now, therefore
THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS OF DESCHUTES COUNTY, OREGON,
also acting as the governing body of the Deschutes County 911 Service District, hereby ORDERS as
follows:
Section 1. The proposed formation of an ORS Chapter 451 county service district for
emergency communications, including 9-1-1 services is economically feasible, complies with all
applicable laws, including but not limited to ORS 197.175, would benefit all property and residents
within Deschutes County, and, therefore, is approved;
Section 2. The withdrawal of all property in the existing emergency communications district,
Deschutes County 911 Service District, in Deschutes County to occur simultaneously with the
formation of a new district is approved;
Section 3. Should the new district be formed and funded, a merger of the remaining portion of
the district in Jefferson County shall be proposed such that the existing district would no longer be
necessary for the purposes for which it was fornled and, therefore, it would be in the best interest of the
inhabitants of the Deschutes County 9-1-1 Service District to dissolve and liquidate said district;
Page 1 of2 -ORDER NO. 2012-006
Section 4. No changes to the boundary of the proposed district as described in Order No. 2011

District;
Section 6. The proposed Deschutes 9-1-1 County Service District, if fornled, will have a

the intent of the Board to initially levy only the existing tax rate of $.33 per $1000 assessed value
Section 7. The Deschutes 9-1-1 County Service District shall be authorized to take all necessary
and proper steps to plan, establish, furnish and maintain a 9-1-1 emergency communications system
