DATE: May 1,2012 FROM: George Kolb, County Engineer Road 541-322-7113 TITLE OF AGENDA ITEM: Consideration of Signature of Document No. 2012-268, A License to Use the Right-of-Way between Tholstrup Drive and South Century Drive by Oregon Water Wonderland, Unit II POA PUBLIC HEARING ON THIS DATE? NO. BACKGROUND AND POLICY IMPLICATIONS: Oregon Water Wonderland, Unit II has their mailboxes and sign located within the right-of-ways of both Tholstrup Drive and South Century Drive. When Oregon Water Wonderland II (OWWII) was platted, the right of way for Tholstrup Drive and South Century Drive abutted each other so there was no private land for the subdivision to place their mailboxes and sign. Over time, the Property Owners Association has done work to clean up the area by adding decorative rock and landscaping. All of this work was done without a permit so when OWWII came in with their latest proposal for improving the area around the mailboxes, we required them to obtain this License to Use the Right-of-Way FISCAL IMPLICATIONS: None. There is no cost to the Road Department concerning the utilization of this permit RECOMMENDATION & ACTION REQUESTED: Move approval of Board Signature on Document No. 2012-268, granting a license to use the right-of­ way between Tholstrup Drive and South Century Drive by Oregon Water Wonderland, Unit II POA ATTENDANCE: George Kolb, County Engineer DISTRIBUTION OF DOCUMENTS: Copy to Sheila OdIe (ext. 7148) at the Road Department DESCHUTES COUNTY DOCUMENT SUMMARY (NOTE: This form is required to be submitted with ALL contracts and other agreements, regardless of whether the document is to be on a Board agenda or can be signed by the County Administrator or Department Director.

Century Dr. and Tholstrup Dr. 1. Remove all weeds, grasses and juniper bushes. 2. Add approx. 2 inches of decretive rock within public right of way to match existing grade. No rock will be added to the shoulder rock along So. Century Dr. or within the natural drainage ditch. This will allow for a clean and distinctive break between the new rock and the existing shoulder rock of approx. 6-8 inches. 3. There will be no rock added under the drip line of all existing trees, this area will be left natural. 4. Weed cloth will not be used under proposed new rock. 5.The existing drainage will not be disturbed, see section A-A. 6. Choice of rock will be decided from one of the five photo samples provided with the help of the County. I 7. We would like the option of having a couple of planter areas for some perennials and or small flowers, location to be determined. These areas will not be built up planter boxes, only bordered with the new proposed rock at the existing dirt grade. I 8. We would also like to propose moving the existing 6 foot diameter OWW2 sign which is mounted to the south side of the center mailbox shelter to the east side of the adjacent mailbox shelter.
