DATE: February 8, 2011 FROM: Dave Kanner County Administrator xt. 6565 TITLE OF AGENDA ITEM: Consideration and Board signature of Document #2011-072, a grant of a Revocable License to the Sunriver Service District. PUBLIC HEARING ON THIS DATE? No. BACKGROUND AND POLICY IMPLICATIONS: The Sunriver Service District, specifically the Sunriver Fire Department, has requested that the County transfer to the District a .75 acre piece of County -owned property, zoned RR -10, on which the District would like to build a fire training facility. The property in question was acquired by tax foreclosure and the County has the statutory right to sell, exchange or lease the property or to relinquish it to another public entity. In this case, the property in question is a high -groundwater ("red") lot and the County has a policy of not transferring red lots. In this case it may be possible for the fire department to create the training facility without installing an on-site wastewater disposal system. There would be a number of land -use hurdles to overcome, all of which would be the responsibility of the District and its staff representative. However, given the County's policy of not transferring red lots, staffs recommendation is that we grant the district a revocable license which would allow the District to proceed with planning and obtaining land -use approvals for the proposed training facility. The license in no way guarantees approval of these land use applications, although it does stipulate that the County, as the owner, will cooperate in the District's efforts to obtain approval. Should such approval be granted, the license states that the County will enter into a long-term lease with SSD under which the District may design, construct, maintain and utilize a fire training facility on the property. FISCAL IMPLICATIONS: None. RECOMMENDATION & ACTION REQUESTED: Board approval and signature of Document #2011-072, a grant of a Revocable License to the Sunriver Service District. NOTE: The Board of Commissioners must convene as the Governing Body of the Sunriver Service District and must also approve and sign this license in order to execute it.
