State regulations and taxes are the problem. The people who can afford to build apartments are big money. Reduce zoning regulations, property taxes and get rid of Urban Growth Boundaries to expand land use and create competition. Then rents would go down. Government over reach is the problem period.
We moved to Bend, after our town of Paradise, ca. Burned down to buy a home and got priced out immediately! We are now "Apartment Dwellers", that feel somewhat without a stake in this "Great Community!"
Because there is not enough support or compassion for those whom have criminal records that can't get jobs because of and or even have there own name on a place of living or vehicle even if they were holding down a job and putting there lives back on track so why would I be agreed for closing
Donβt think there enough places for all of these people to go. Let them stay where they are with the services provided until there is a permanent safe stay place/solution.
The expenditure per person is outrageous..calculate per 190 residents!
Also what is the stated method to audit the success of this large spending of our taxes?
And RENT CONTROL!!
