None was offered.
2. Before the Board was Consideration of the Reading and Adoption of a
Proclamation Declaring August 10 -14 to be Deschutes County Code
Enforcement Officers' Recognition Week.
Tom Anderson explained that the Governor's Office announced that the second
week in August will be Code Enforcement Officers' Recognition Week in
Oregon. The two Code Enforcement technicians for Deschutes County are
John Griley and Tim Grundeman. He noted that this is one of the toughest jobs
in his department. On a daily basis, these two individuals wrestle with
significant issues, often involving different or conflicting perspectives on
property rights versus the effects on neighboring properties of some uses. A
balance has to be found. They handle over 250 cases annually.
Mr. Anderson thanked the staff that supports the two individuals and also the
Sheriff's Office for its part in handling these cases.
The Board then recognized the work that Mr. Griley and Mr. Grundeman do
every day.

Commissioner Baney noted that this has to be a challenging job and not just
anyone could handle it well. Commissioner Unger thanked them for helping to
recognize potential problems early and said he would be happy to talk with
citizens who have issues with whatever action has to be taken. Commissioner
Luke stated that voluntary compliance is a good way to go, and that most of the
time no citation is needed because of the professional way these situations are
addressed.
Chair Baney then read the County's Proclamation.
LUKE: Move signature.
UNGER: Second.
VOTE: LUKE: Yes.
UNGER: Yes.
BANEY: Chair votes yes.
The Board presented certificates to Mr. Grundeman and Mr. Griley at this time.
3. Before the Board was the Continuation of a Public Hearing on Files No.
PA -083 and ZC -083, on an Appeal of the Hearings Officer's Decision
regarding a Plan Amendment /Zone Change on Agricultural/EFU to
Airport Development (Aviation Support District - Bend).
Chair Baney reopened the hearing, which was continued from February 23, 2009.
Anthony Raguine said that the applicant has asked to continue this item to
summer of 2010 to allow time for the Bend Airport to update its master plan.
The process on the plan has begun, but it is not known when it will be
completed. Funding was secured to be able to hire a consultant to begin this
work.
Commissioner Luke asked what the purpose is of extending the file. There are
other issues that need to be addressed at the same time by the plan. Mr.
Raguine said that the applicant hopes that his property can be included at that
time. Commissioner Unger stated that he feels the applicant has paid a fee and
should not have to reapply with another fee.
Ms. Craghead said that a decision would have to be made if it is not continued.
However, the public is on notice that the hearing would be continued to a future
date. A brief discussion took place regarding what date might be best to
address this issue further. A date of February 10, 2010 was selected.

4. Before the Board were Additions to the Agenda.
Commissioner Luke asked Mr. Anderson about a question raised regarding
appealing to the Department of Environmental Quality for a denial of a solid
waste permit.
Laurie Craghead said that it depends on whether it falls under the
Administrative Rule. The status of the County's regulation is unclear at this
time, but it might involve a Code enforcement action.
Commissioner Unger asked about whether the County can be split in regard to
on -site inspections, with part being handled by the County and the other
handled by the State. Mr. Anderson said that this discussed is planned for an
upcoming work session or executive session, whichever is appropriate.
Being no further items to come before the Board, the meeting adjourned at
