The Board has a joint work session scheduled with the Bend City Council for
Wednesday, August 26. At the moment, the agenda for that meeting is as follows:
1. Bend Airport update
2. Shared services discussions: current status
3. Status report: North Highway 97 planning
Item number 3 will be presented by Gary Farnsworth from ODOT. I haven't seen any
back-up information yet, although you were briefed on the various alternatives at the last
joint work session and I believe Gary simply wants to present an update as to where we
currently are in the planning process.
Item number 2 relates to the panel that Commissioner Baney and Mayor Eckman have
been participating in, although I'm informed that they haven't met since June. It will
likely be up to the mayor to provide the update on this item, although we can also discuss
the shared training and building inspection efforts.
Item number 1 relates to Bend's master planning efforts. I had previously talked to you
about Bend's discussions about annexing the airport and the different paths they might
take to get there. It's my understanding that the City will take the traditional route, which
includes updating the airport master plan as the first step. I believe city staff will take the
lead on presenting this item.
The purpose of this work session discussion is to see if there is any information or back-
up materials the commissioners would like in advance of the joint work session so staff
can begin preparing that for you.
