COTTAGE GROVE SENTINEL SLCFR from A1 In deliberating how to address the currently vacant seat, the board ta- bled discussion pending a report from Wooten on filling the vacancy. With more than two years remaining in Rad- cliffe’s term, the board will await advice from Lane County Elections before a decision is reached on filling the seat. Policy Update Board members also voted to assign Wooten to update the board’s public notification pol- icy to reflect current re- quirements of ORS (Or- egon Revised Statutes) 192.640. The state law requires public bodies to “pro- vide for and give public notice, reasonably calcu- lated to give actual no- tice to interested persons including news media which have requested notice, of the time and place for holding regular meetings.” The ORS also requires notice of principal sub- jects anticipated to be considered at the meet- ing. Other requirements include notices to the public regarding execu- tive sessions and a mini- mum of 24 hours’ notice for special meetings. Wooten reasoned that a policy update was needed because current board policy phrasing designates newspapers as the manner by which public meeting notifi- cations are distributed while state law makes no such specification. “It’s been problemat- ic for staff at times with these meetings because all the papers have dead- lines,” explained Woo- ten to the board. “And to advertise in the Reg- ister-Guard is more ex- pensive than advertising the The Sentinel...” The policy update does not specify the manner in which future notifica- tions will be posted. “Nothing is changing as far as the availability of public documents for the meetings,” Wooten told The Sentinel. “The board is considering up- dating the language to remove print media as the sole source of public meeting notification. “The policy will sim- ply be updated to refer to ‘Public Meeting No- tifications’ [to] comply with the ORS.” In other SLCFR board news: • Board seats shift- ed as Cheryl Shannon was elected as board president, Dan Duffy as vice president and Tom Munroe as secretary/ treasurer. “I’m happy to be back and report to the board that my doctor has seen fit to release me for limited administrative duty. I’m not clear to go on calls yet, but it’s a first step.” — SLCFR Fire Chief John Wooten • The board au- thorized payment to Knife River Corpora- tion-Northwest in the amount of $134,011 for a training yard paving project at Station 201 (233 Harrison Street) in Cottage Grove. • Chief Wooten re- ported that personnel assigned to the Holiday Farm Fire have returned except for Division Chief Joe Raade, who remained (at the time) assigned with the OSFM (Office of the State Fire Marshal) Incident Man- agement Team. The district had six personnel and four vehi- cles assigned to the fire. The meeting was also marked by the return to public eye of Wooten, who had been on ex- tended medical leave fol- lowing his reinstatement in June. “I’m happy to be back and report to the board that my doctor has seen fit to release me for lim- ited administrative duty. I’m not clear to go on calls yet, but it’s a first step,” he said, adding in a statement, “I will slowly begin resuming normal | SEPTEMBER 24, 2020 | 7A hours over the next few weeks.” The reason for his medical leave was not specified. The board meeting was streamed on the in- ternet while a link to the meeting and call-in line was made available to those who requested no- tification. Due to technical issues with the public joining the meeting, Wooten suggested that the board authorize an expedited release of “draft-unap- proved” minutes of the meeting on the district’s website, which was ap- proved.
