MINUTES OF WORK SESSION
DESCHUTES COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
MONDAY, NOVEMBER 9, 2015 ___________________________
Present were Commissioners Anthony DeBone, Tammy Baney and Alan Unger.
Also present were Tom Anderson, County Administrator; Erik Kropp, Deputy
County Administrator; David Doyle, County Counsel; Christina Partain, Finance;
Nick Lelack, Peter Gutowsky and Matt Martin, Community Development; Jane
Smilie, Tom Kuhn, Sherri Pinner and Eric Mone, Health Services; and two other
citizens, including media representative Ted Shorack of The Bulletin.
Chair DeBone opened the meeting at 1:30 p.m.
___________________________
1. Discussion of Changes to the FY 2016 Fee Schedule (Environmental Health).
Tom Kuhn referred to a memo detailing the need for fee increases for some
services. The number of facilities has risen, creating a higher workload.
Commissioner Baney asked what has changed since the last budget was adopted
Sherri Pinner stated she did not have enough time to determine the necessary
amounts, since it had been a long time since there was an adjustment. Jane
Smilie added that the State is increasing licensing fees as of the first of the
calendar year. There has been no increase since 2009.
Commissioner Baney asked if they plan for future adjustments automatically as
necessary. Mr. Kuhn stated that he does not feel it needs to be adjusted
annually. Ms. Pinner noted that she would like to review this for next year,
depending on what the State indicates is the proper amount given the size of an
establishment, number of employees and other factors.

Mr. Mone added that the fee increase should cover most of another FTE, which
is badly needed. The added person will not necessarily add revenue, but can
help with the workload. There are unfunded mandates such as mold issues that
they are required to handle. There are measurements and standards for the food
service component.
Commissioner Unger asked why the fees are higher than in other counties. Mr.
Mone stated that some are heavily supported by the general fund or their solid
waste department. They are trying to be self-supporting as much as possible.
The policy question for the Board is whether the users should pay most of the
fee or if it should be supported more through the general fund. Mr. Anderson
stated that here there is a heavy emphasis on education, which takes more time
and effort than just flying through an inspection. This is a policy choice, which
has been supported by the Board in the past.
Chair DeBone asked if the restaurant owners have been advised of this potential
increase. Mr. Mone said there would be a renewal notice sent out in December
but they do have an electronic newsletter that goes out twice a year. The
additional FTE would also help with the educational component instead of just
enforcement. Mr. Kuhn added that the relationship part is important to the
department and the business owners. There are other businesses besides
restaurants, such as day care centers, public pools and schools. Christina
Partain stated that there is a public hearing on the increase as well, which will
be noticed. The department will reach out via e-mail to let the business owners
know.
The Board was supportive of moving forward.
2. Discussion of Plan Amendment and Zone Change Applications and
Request for Emergency Adoption of Ordinances, from CR Contracting.
Matt Martin said that the applicant has requested that the Ordinances be
adopted by emergency. The hearing before the hearings officer was held and
supported. The Board is to review the Ordinances but the applicant would like
this to happen more quickly. The applicant wants to get a faster start on the
development of the property. They have outgrown their current location and
wish to start on the process for the new property before spring.

Commissioner Unger would like the adoption process to be similar to that of the
cities. He suggested adopting by emergency with an effective date 30 days
afterwards. That would still allow some for someone to appeal.
Mr. Martin said that the Hearings Officer’s decision is final but the Board is to
review and adopt. The timeframe is at the Board’s discretion.
Chair DeBone said there is a Tumalo group that is fairly active, and perhaps
should be advised. Mr. Doyle stated that there is time to appeal to LUBA
regardless. Most jurisdictions do land use by emergency so someone can
appeal immediately to LUBA. Commissioner Baney said that some people
question each adoption by emergency. She thinks thirty days is defendable
since it is the same as the cities here, but would still have to be adopted by
emergency for the first and second readings.
Nick Lelack said this is a formality because the decision has already been made
and the appeal period has already passed. The Board is supportive of the
emergency component, as long as it is clear to the public as to the reasons why.
Commissioner Unger said the applicant requested the zone change but did not
indicate the proposed uses. He asked if there are other processes allowing for
oversight of what is being done there. Mr. Martin replied that there would be
site plan review. It was clear that it was for CR use, and they are a paving
company. It will include equipment storage and an office building. Traffic
impacts are also being considered.
3. Discussion of an Additional FTE for Assistant Planner.
Peter Gutowsky gave an overview of the request. They are reclassifying Paul
Blikstads’s position to assistant planner, but need to add an assistant planner
due to workload. This will help with more effective counter coverage without
overpaying for it. They are trying to gauge the workload, and staff accordingly.
They have land use planning fees adequate to cover the position. They have an
on-call planner now, but that person has had to work full time.
Mr. Lelack said they have not increased FTE’s for planning for almost a
decade. Commissioner Baney stated she appreciates them being conservative
while providing consistent service. The Board was supportive of this.

4. Other Items.
Ken Hales joined the meeting to discuss the CASA funding issue with the
Board. Commissioner Baney said she heard from Representative Gene
Whisnant and is reaching out to clarify the situation. It would take more time if
this goes back to the committee to review and approve. Benton County has
CASA in their application so perhaps it was stated differently.
Mr. Hales said that the award to Benton County included addressing the
questions the local CASA received. Apparently the information received
locally did not address the specific questions. It should have been presented a
different way.
Commissioner Baney said this is an important asset to the system. Mr. Hales
noted that the committee has recommended awarding it as it is now, but they
might entertain another submission from CASA prior to the award. Mr.
Anderson added that this part of the process was coordinated by the District
Attorney’s Office.
Chair DeBone said the State does not want to build more prisons so are
apparently redirecting funds this way. Mr. Hales said that CASA received
funds previously but this year had to go through an application process. It
might not be the correct funding pool for CASA. Commissioner Baney said
that every child who is subject to neglect is not necessarily a victim. However,
they need to work on prevention and this part of it.
Mr. Hales stated that the other application included a CASA component, which
included a sub-section on children that could be specifically called a victim due
to certain crimes. They have to show what they would be doing that is new and
different with this funding. He can contact the CASA director and try to
institute changes. However, the submittal from the Public Safety Coordinating
Council would have to be modified if they want to pursue a change in the
submittal.

Commissioner Unger feels they should focus on other sources of funding. Mr.
Anderson said they are a County service partner. Mr. Hales stated he provided
some guidance as to how CASA might get more attention at budget time. Chair
DeBone does not want them to suffer because the criteria have changed in the
grant process with the State. CASA is facing a shortfall and pursuing other
avenues would take time.
Mr. Hales stated that he can meet with some of the parties again and look at
strategies. Commissioner Baney would like them to examine what Benton
County did and see if it can be duplicated locally, so is willing to try this if they
can pull PSCC back together to make a decision, due to the tight timeframe.
The Board is willing to give them a chance to make appropriate changes to the
application, if they can get it done quickly.
___________________________
Mr. Anderson spoke of a message from Dan Moore of ONDA, who is lobbying
hard for the Canyonlands designation in southeastern Oregon. Mr. Moore
wants to make a presentation to the Board. Commissioner Baney said it was
not that the Board does not support wilderness, but more to support local
control. Commissioner Unger feels they should review the monument
designation process overall, including the local governments. He does not think
anyone has the whole story. The Board is open to a presentation at a work
session.
Whitney Malkin spoke about Sunriver being approached for the dates for the
WIR conference, so it would have to be moved up a week or another venue
considered. Chair DeBone would like to attend as he hasn’t before.
Commissioners Baney does not know what kind of attendance might be
expected. Ms. Malkin said most people prefer the Memorial Day aspect so they
can perhaps stay longer. Commissioner Unger stated that it is going to be up to
the WIR. Commissioner Baney thinks they will be flexible, but they should
stay away from the Pole-Pedal-Paddle event. Ms. Malkin will speak with Alana
at COVA about any potential conflicts.

Deschutes County Health Services
Memorandum
To: Deschutes County Board of County Commissioners
CC: Tom Anderson, County Administrator Jane Smilie, Health Services Director
From: Tom Kuhn, Community Health Manager Eric Mone, Environmental Health Supervisor
Date: November 9, 2015
Re: Request to increase Environmental Health Program Fees
Rationale:
Standard 8 of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Voluntary National Retail Food
Regulatory Program Standards recommends “a staffing level of 1.0 FTE devoted to the
foodservice program for every 280-320 inspections performed per year.” Currently, Deschutes
County Health Services Environmental Health (EH) foodservice staff perform 810 foodservice
inspections per year, per FTE. This high volume of inspections can have the impact of reducing
the quality of inspection, ultimately reducing the quality of public health protection staff can
deliver.
During a recent site visit of the EH program, FDA Regional Food Specialist Katey Kennedy noted
that the program is unable to fully meet any of the nine (9) FDA Voluntary National Retail Food
Regulatory Program Standards due to insufficient FTE.
Current staff workload allows little room for building capacity or performing other important EH
functions including responding to animal bites, mold mitigation, program planning, and quality
improvement/evaluation programs.
In the summertime, the surge of tourism inflates the population of Bend alone to approximately
100,000 (18,000 visitors a day) and rarely falls below 93,000 year-round. This increased
population creates a burden on EH staff who are actually serving a larger population and a larger
per capita food and tourist industry.
The EH Supervisor must spend 50% of his time in the field in order to support staff inspections.
This field work contribution allows him less time to perform traditional supervisory duties such
as performance management, operational development, data analysis, and budget functions.
EH fees have not been raised since 2009. It was decided after 2009 not to raise fees due to the
burden caused by the recession on local business owners.
Proposal: Raise Environmental Health Program Fees 6%
Raising all EH fees 6% would provide approximately $50,000 additional revenue (FY 15 revenue
of $819,187 x 6% = $49,157), which would be sufficient to support 0.5 Environmental Health
Specialist II FTE in the FY 17 budget.
This position will inspect 250-300 Licensed Facilities per year. This position will take lead in
functions such as animal bites, mold, outbreak investigations, FDA Voluntary Standards, and
reduce the burden of inspections for EHS staff.
The FDA Standard for foodservice inspections is 280-320 per year per FTE. Currently, 3.3 FTE
DCHS staff perform 810 foodservice inspections per FTE. Adding 0.5 FTE would reduce the
inspection volume to 703 inspections per FTE, which is a 13.2% reduction.
In order to meet the FDA standard of 280-320 inspections per year, EH would have to increase
at least 5.0 FTE, which would require a 60% increase in fees. Such an increase would be
excessive and not an option.

Note: A supplementary inspection charge equal to 50% of the annual
license fee shall be assessed for each complete inspection required
because of failure to meet applicable standards when such complete
inspection is performed during the license period in addition to the two semi-
annual inspections normally performed. Charges accrued and not paid

MEMORANDUM
TO: Deschutes Board of County Commissioners FROM: Matthew Martin, Associate Planner DATE: November 4, 2015 RE: November 9, 2015, Work Session – CR Contracting Plan Amendment/Zone Change
(File Nos. 247-15-000272-ZC/273-PA) The purpose of this work session is to determine if the Board of County Commissioners (Board) is supportive of adopting ordinances by emergency. Based on Board direction, staff will prepare two ordinances for the business meeting on November 30. Summary C.R. Contracting, LLC, requested a Plan Amendment and Zone Change to change the zoning from Tumalo Residential-5 Acre Minimum (TuR5) to Tumalo Industrial (TuI) and the plan designation from Residential 5-Acre Minimum (TuR5) to Industrial (TuI) for a 5.39 acre property located near the southern boundary of the Tumalo Rural Community. The Hearings Officer held a public hearing on August 18, 2015, and found the application met, or could meet, all relevant criteria and approved the applicant’s proposal in a decision dated October 7, 2015 (attached). The Hearings Officer’s decision was not appealed. Under DCC 22.28.030(B), “In considering all quasi-judicial zone changes and those quasi-judicial plan amendments on which the Hearings Officer has authority to make a decision, the Board of County Commissioners shall, in the absence of an appeal or review initiated by the Board, adopt the Hearings Officer's decision. No argument or further testimony will be taken by the Board.” Staff will bring the ordinances for review and adoption on November 30, 2015. The attached letter from Sharon Smith, attorney for the applicant, explains their interest in adoption by emergency. ATTACHMENTS:

Memorandum
DATE: November 5, 2015
TO: Board of County Commissioners
FROM: Nick Lelack, Community Development Department Director Peter Gutowsky, Planning Manager
RE: Planning Staff I Budget Amendment I Authorization to Fund Assistant Planner Position
The Community Development Department (COD) is respectfully requesting the Board of County Commissioners (Board) amend the COD budget to add 1 New Full Time Equivalent (FTE) employee to fill an Assistant Planner position.
Background
In preparation for a Senior Planner retirement at the end of the calendar year, COD is reclassifying the Senior Planner position to an Assistant Planner. In addition to this reclassification, a new FTE position of Assistant Planner is requested. The result is to replace a Senior Planner with two Assistant Planners to reestablish the Planning Division's pre-recession organizational structure ( i.e. two Senior Planners, two Associate Planners and two Assistant Planners). The goals are to meet service demands, provide outstanding customer service and to adequately pay for the services delivered (Le. Senior Planners should not perform routine duties better suited for a lower planner classification).
Justification
To demonstrate the Planning Division's operational needs, COD offers the following as justification to add 1 FTE to its budget for a second Assistant Planner position:
• High land use volume shows since FY 2005-2006, that Planning Division FTEs rise and fall based on land use revenue (Attachment)
• Planning Division cannot meet its current needs as evidenced by an on-call planner working full time
• COD has sufficient revenue to fund the position based on year-to-date revenue total of t45% in Current Planning. Expenditures are on target at 33%.
• COD has employed an on-call planner in the last four months to meet the demands of the division (costs of this position is included within the 33% expenditure total).
