RE: PROPERTY MANAGEMENT UPDATE 8/17/09
Teresa and I will be attending the Monday, August 17, work session to update and
discuss the following items. These items will be discussed in executive session, so we
are not providing a great deal of detail at this time.
o Sisters Rodeo Grounds — Sisters Rodeo has approached Senator Wyden's office
about the acquisition of Forest Service land for expansion. David Blair has
inquired about a Deschutes County role in that transaction.
o St. Vincent DePaul of La Pine — SVDP is ready to discuss acquisition of
property for their La Pine services site.
o La Pine Theatre — Staff has been contacted by a private party wanting to acquire
county property in the community facilities zone where the senior center and the
housing project are located.
o Red Cross — At its June 3 work session, the Board directed staff to meet with Red
Cross and determine feasibility of providing space to store disaster relief
supplies. Red Cross needs approximately 15,000 square feet for administrative
offices and the Blood Services operation. They can pay market rate for rent. The
emergency services managers for our Sheriff's Office and the Red Cross want to
establish a shared space for storing emergency supplies. We've located a
commercial building that meets the space and location criteria. Staff needs
additional direction from the Board in regard to County's role how we should
proceed.
o Project Properties - Staff has updated the portfolio of properties and will
distribute such.
o North County Campus — Staff would like to discuss the possibility of issuing an
RFP for proposals for a new Redmond services building.
