RE: Property Management Items for 9/26/12 Work Session
Request from Habitat for Humanity
In 2007 Deschutes County donated two lots to Habitat for Humanity. At the time,
the Executive Director felt that both lots were appropriate for their building
program. Recently, we heard from the current management that one of the lots
is not affordable to build on. They ask that the BOCC transfer the deed
restriction to another property. They have a donor lined up who is willing to make
a trade with them. All the details are contained in the attached file.
Request to Donate Land to Deschutes County
Mr. and Mrs. Francis Bortner wish to donate two vacant, buildable lots in
Redmond to Deschutes County. They used to live next to the lots but now they
live in Bend. They told me that they do not want to manage the property any
longer. Their recent attempt to sell one of the lots fell through. They clearly
stated that they don’t care what the county does with the property (donate or
sell). Map attached.
La Pine Land Conveyance
I met with BLM and Steve Hasson yesterday to clarify roles and responsibilities
for the conveyance. We need direction from the BOCC on a couple of things.
