about the courthouse.
Karl Neiderwerfer o f Resource
Conservation and Development
reported on a canola trial project
and gave the Court a certificate
of appreciation for support o f the
canola program . He said that
canola is more tolerant o f winter
conditons and yields more oil, but
the price has dropped and no one
is producing it. He also reported
that experiments are ongoing in
search for different uses for the
canola. He expressed confidence
in a “big future” for the oil, and
reported that a feasibility analysis
might justify a crushing plant in the
county. Neiderwerfer reported a
contract with the postal service to
supply engine oil and said that the
Ford Motor Company is interested
in the product, which disperses in
water and can be disposed of like
household non-hazardous waste.

At the May 22 meeting of the
M orrow County Court, Judge
Terry Tallman opened the continu­
ation o f the public hearing on the
BAIC land-use appeal. Planning
Director Tamra Mabbott reported
that County Counsel Bill Hanson
had read and approved changes
in the final wording requested by
the commissioners. Commissioner
Dan B rosnan asked the
applicant’s representative if the
applicant understands that the fi­
nal plat cannot be signed until the
easem ent has been done. The
answ er was affirm ative. The
hearing was closed, and the Court
adopted the corrected findings.
The South Morrow County
Ministerial Association invites the
community to come meet Jesus
in the park and see what He is
doing in Heppner. An extended
Singspiration will be held at the
Heppner City Park on Friday and
Saturday, June 21 -22 from 6 p.m.-
7 a.m.
The Friday evening events
will begin at 6 p.m. with a pro­
gram
for ch ild ren . The
Singspiration begins at 7:30 p.m.
and will be extended to include
testimony and more.
The Singspiration will be fol­
lowed by an all-night prayer vigil
in the park starting at 9 p.m. and
going through the night until 7 a.m.
Saturday morning. The prayer vig­
il will be followed by a morning
potluck breakfast.
This is a family, multi-church
event. Attendees are invited to
bring food and lawn chairs, or
“just come listen and share in the
refreshm ents and fellow ship!”
said a coordinator of the event.
For more information, contact
Pastor Craig Strobel, 676-9224, or
Pastor Tim Van Cleave, 676-
5581 .If it rains, the event will be
held at Lynda Crane's home be­
hind the motel.
Mabbott reported that the Port of
Morrow has agreed to contribute
additional funds to a few more
hours' work by the attorney hired
for the speedway project. The
Court approved the agreement.
County A ssessor Greg Sweek
spoke to the Court about the Wild­
life Habitat Conservation (WHC)
Program and introduced Clair
Klock, a proponent from another
county. Sweek noted that under
HB3564, certain property, which
now can include EFU and forest
land, can be eligible for a WHC
special assessment. If a county
takes no action by January 2003,
the wildlife habitat program will
automatically be allowed by de­
fault, and a county can “opt out”
now and opt in later but not the
other way around. Sweek re­
ported that 99% o f the county
properties are already under spe­
cial assessment as either farms or
forest, and the bill would not af­
fect areas outside cities in Rural
Residential II zones. As an ex­
ample, Sweek explained that if a
farmer wanted to create a pre­
serve instead of farm the land, he
could switch to this special assess­
ment. If a landowner does not
follow the wildlife conservation
plan, the same disqualification pro­
cedure would be enacted as for
property under the farm assess­
ment. Sweek said that he feels
that the impact would be minimal
to Morrow County, as most prop­
erty that is eligible for special as­
sessment already is specially as­
sessed and no one has inquired
about it. Commissioner Brosnan
noted some conditions in other
land ownership situations and ex­
pressed the need to see the ad­
ministrative rules before making
a decision. Klock, a rural land-
owner, presented his reasons for
supporting the program - im ­
provem ent o f water retention,
decrease o f erosion, allowance for
someone to buy the farm and keep
the program or turn it back to
farming without penalty, revenue
neutrality - stating that the ben­
efit would be for a landowner who
did not want to farm.
Public Works D irector Burke
O ’Brien reported that the crew
was finishing chip seal on Tower
Road and moving to Homestead.
Cloudbursts had resulted in wash­
outs on Clarks Canyon, Dee Cox,
Bell Canyon, Stock Drive, and
Rhea Creek Roads. He said that
the rock crusher would begin op­
eration at Skinner Creek pit the
following week. The rock screen­
ing project was completed the pre­
vious week.
O ’Brien reported on installation of
power and water to camp sites at
Cutsforth Park - two restored
after the tree thinning last year and
four new sites created by the thin­
ning. Both parks are open and the
reservation system seems to be
working well. O ’Brien also re­
ported on a meeting with an engi­
neer about the storm drain project
adjacent to the courthouse, and
the Court agreed to the county’s
share in the expense.
O ’Brien told the commissioners
that the tour o f the proposed RV
site by the State Parks Acquisi­
tion Committee “went very well.”
The tour included presentations by
E conom ic D eveloper M artin
Davis, Lee Palmer, Judge Tallman
and Representative Greg Smith,
a stop at Anson Wright Park, four
hours at the proposed site, a meet­
ing at the fairgrounds, and a tour
of the courthouse. The reaction
of the committee, O ’Brien noted,
seemed positive, but a decision
will be forthcoming.
Other actions o f the Court in­
cluded the following:
- approval o f a permit to Cascade
Natural Gas Company to install a
new line from Oregon along Third
Street to a residence and of a per­
mit to Western Empire for repair
of a broken water line under De­
pot Lane;
Representatives o f the Oregon
Department o f Human Services
(DHS), Community Human Ser­
vices (CHS) offered the Court an
opportunity to hear about changes
in the departments. One develop­
m ent will be lo ca l a d v is o ry
groups for the child welfare, se­
nior and disabled services, and
self-sufficiency programs. They
explained som e changes and
shared overviews o f the depart­
ments. Oregon budget cuts, they
said, would likely not affect cli­
ents directly, though hiring for
DHS vacancies will be delayed.
They explained common overlap
o f services and discussed the
elimination o f entitlement to wel­
fare. The Court asked that they
check into the level o f senior ser­
vices in the county.
- approval of furniture and equip­
ment for the expanded Behavioral
Health Department office space;
- approval o f a janitorial services
agreement with Nolan Janitorial,
for the Gilliam and Bisbee Build­
ing;
- approval o f an agreement with
ODOT for emergency services;
- approval o f an addendum to the
contract with SCM for a traffic
evacuation analysis for CSEPP;
- approval of a “CaCoon” services
contract amendment with OHSU;
- approval of a contract with DHS
to allow health department clients
to be covered by the O regon
Health Plan;
Judge Tallman reported on the
Area Commission on Transporta­
tion (ACT) meeting in LaGrande,
at which he was elected vice chair.
Still to be designated are city rep­
resentatives and an at-large mem­
ber from each county. The com­
mission expects $600 million in
bond money, Tallman reported,
and should have effective input
into what happens in Region Five.
- approval o f an agreement with
Tom Mabbott for 160 hours of
compensation;
- approval o f a mini-grant agree­
ment for services to the Willow
Creek Water Park;
- agreement on a minimum bid
price for the tax-foreclosed prop­
erty now for sale;
The Court reviewed entries in the
courthouse contest and awarded
prizes. First prizes went to the
needlepoint entry from Jenny
B ingham , the draw ing from
Whitely Reece, and the model by
Norman DeBoer. Second place
went to Jane McRoberts' embroi­
dered jacket. Another first went
to Margaret Green for her song
- approval o f the agreement with
the Department o f Aviation for a
state sponsorship agreement and
project statement.
