Mr. Gutowsky explained there is a 21-day appeal window, and an appeal is filed, the County will have to go through the LUBA appeal process. He added that he has received a preliminary population estimate from Portland State University, and noted that since the 2010 Census was released, the numbers are not as high as originally expected. There will be more time for destination resorts to think about their projects, since with the downturn of the economy the projection will likely be beyond 2017 or 2018. Last year was the lowest projection over the past ten years, although Deschutes County is still growing somewhat. Crook County showed a net migration out of that county.. Commissioner Unger asked if the data shows migration between counties or communities. Mr. Gutowsky said it does not; the Census is a detailed survey and PSU’s process is not as exact. The Board complimented Mr. Gutowsky, Ms. Craghead and staff on their hard work during this process, and for their extensive involvement of the public.
