County Court news
by Doris Brosnan
Judge Terry Tallm an
opened a public hearing on the
county budget at the June 5
m eeting o f Morrow County
Court. Hearing no comments,
Tallman closed the hearing.
Budget Officer Lisanne Currin
and A ccounting Supervisor
Tawny Miles attended the
hearing, and Miles offered a
preliminary review of the Health
Department budget, noting that
additional revenues will determine
a final report.
Planning Director Tamra
Mabbott had a question of the
court and Counsel Hanlon about
the siting of the sewage lagoon
for the proposed speedway. They
agreed that approval was for
siting within the 1400 acres.
M abbott said that actual
placement of facilities will be
clarified during the site
development process. The court
noted that it had offered a
“preliminary approval” of the
speedway project at the last public
hearing.
County
B uilding
Inspector Brett Cook provided the
court an estimate on the cost of
the permit for the proposed urea
plant near Boardman. He added
that the developer is claiming
exclusion that would cut the value
of the plant to less than half. A
b rie f discussion o f the site
development process ensued.
A representative o f
Devin Oil spoke to the court about
the oil contract, explaining that the
bid was mistakenly based on an
outdated State hid price and
cannot be delivered at the bid
price. During an extensive
discussion with the commissioners
and County Counsel Bill Hanlon,
the representative questioned the
publication process and asked
about notification to “jobbers.”
Commissioner Wenholz explained
the history of the fuel-bid process
and stressed the responsibility of
the businesses to remain aware
of public notices. Hanlon noted
the legalities of the situation and
suggested a compromise that
represents, still, a low bid on the
contract but only a 10% increase
over the previous year's contract
price.
The
Devin
Oil
representative agreed to take the
offer to the business. Hanlon
asked that the business send a
letter requesting notification of
bids for all products it would be
interested in bidding.
Luella Taylor o f the
Lexington Council, and another
Lexington resident spoke to the
court about problems with the
airport well water. The water is
stored in a reservoir and is
unacceptable
for
human
consum ption, according to a

sanitary study. Lexington owns
the well and reservoir and has
applied to the Oregon Economic
Development program for funds
with which to build a different
reservoir and, possibly, to drill a
new well. The council asks if the
county would consider purchasing
the airport well and reservoir - for
the washing of planes and other
non-potable uses - or assisting the
community in some way in its
pursuit of a new well. Taylor
added that Lexington has applied
for water rights but was denied
because no log has been kept.
C om m issioner Dan Brosnan
noted that the report suggests that
a water right might yet be attained
if the water is brought up to
standard. Taylor also said she did
not know the cost for
decontamination of the well. The
com m issioners offered some
suggestions of alternatives that
might yet be pursued.
Louis Carlson, o f the
W illow Creek Symphony,
approached the court about a need
for additional tippage-fee funds,
in addition to funds he has
requested from some local
supporting businesses, for a June
30 program planned for lone. The
court unanimously agreed with
Carlson on the organization's
merits and agreed to help with the
funding.

Published: June 19,2002
Affid
A ssociation (EOVA), Dave
Jensen appeared at the court
session to thank the court for
support and to enhance the
commissioners’ knowledge of the
organization, which strives to
assist “every county with
improving their travel visitorship.”
He shared information on the
“ M orrow
County
Travel
Im pacts” from 1991-2000,
showing that the county’s travel
spending numbers are fourth
lowest in the state. Judge Tallman
noted increased revenues
resulting from parks' reservations,
and the group discussed the
proposed ATV park. Jensen
explained the EOVA Visitors’
G uide, publication costs,
advertising (in print and on the
internet), and distribution
m ethods. In response to his
question concerning the county’s
not contributing this year, Judge
Tallman pointed to the advertising
costs and the economic hardships
in the county, especially among
businesses.
C om m issioner
Brosnan said he would prefer
advertising more innovative than
that in a magazine, using Baker
County’s TV ads as an example.
Jensen agreed that distribution of
guides through welcome centers
is least effective, but he reported
that Eastern Oregon University is
conducting a study to discover
how people are using the guides,
and how they spend travel dollars
after requesting and receiving a
guide, in order to measure its
effectiveness. Heppner Chamber
of Commerce Director, Claudia
Hughes, granting that the EOVA
guide is “not perfect,” noted that
ten years ago Heppner was not
on the guide's map, but the
organization “has come a long
way.” She saw the visit by the
president as a good sign, and she
noted that the H eppner
community now understands the
importance of tourism.
The court reviewed the
two responses to the county’s
request for proposal for the
County Counsel contract and
agreed to set up interviews, at
which Counsel Hanlon will assist.
Wayne Kinney, the
assistant to Senator Ron Wyden,
reported to the court that he has
been pursuing answers to their
questions about the flood plain
issue in the Willow Creek Valley
but has encountered delays in
getting a m eeting with the
com m ander o f the corps o f
engineers.
Counsel
Hanlon
presented the court an
amendment to the agreement
with the State of Oregon Youth
Authority for the juvenile crime
prevention plan but noted that the
dollar figure has changed. The
court agreed to w ait for the
figures before acting upon the
am endm ent. H anlon also
presented a contract with Unicom
for long distance services.
Executive Secretary Andrea
Denton observed a discrepancy
in the termination clause, and the
court deferred action until a
correction is made. Hanlon
reported having some questions
for the Behavioral Health
Services D irector about the
proposed contract with Wheeler
County for services.
Public Works Office
Specialist Karen Wolff reported
the revenue amounts generated at
Anson Wright and Cutsforth
Parks during the Memorial Day
weekend. She also addressed the
issue of keeping areas for adult
gatherings separate from areas
for youth gatherings at the
grounds. W olff reported the
proceeds from three auctioned
vehicles and reported on the work
of the department crew: They had
all but finished the first and
second lifts in chip sealing on
Homestead and Poleline and
would move to Patterson Ferry
Road the week o f June 10.
Crushing began on June 3 at
Skinner Creek pit. The paint
striper is ready to go, and the
crew was to start striping for
ODOT on June 7. Spraying of
weeds continues along gravel
roads that need touching up.
Other actions of the court
included the following:
- approval of the purchase of a
computer program, a laminator,
and a computer work center for
the
B ehavioral
Health
Department and for a purchase
of a copy machine for the District
Attorney’s Office;
- approval o f the purchase and
installation o f a used rock
crusher;
- agreed to a meet with the Health
District administrator on June 7
for a discussion of the Health
Department;
- approval of a health insurance
plan change for non-union
employees, for consistency and
equity of treatment among union
and non-union employees;
- approval of a two-and-a-half-
month roller lease with Western
States;
- approval of a lease/purchase
agreement with Wells Fargo Bank
for a D-8 Cat;
- approval of a contract with the
National Institute for Chemical
Studies for public outreach on
protective actions during
emergencies;
- approval o f a sole source
exem ption from com petitive
bidding requirem ents for re
circulating air filters;
- agreem ent to notices for
employees about a change in the
hardship
leave
policy,
recommended by department
heads
- approval of the purchase of a
replacement copy machine for the
courthouse.
