Homeless camps should not be set up in the city, especially not in residential or commercial areas, There should be county or BLM land available on the outskirts of the city, if you drive along China Hat road there are already a lot of homeless people camping out on BLM land.

Have you looked at the plan? It's not going to be tents and grocery carts. It's going to be MANAGED HOUSING with rules and restrictions for pete's sake! Pay attention first. Then form an opinion.

It's a no-brainer to NOT put these camps anywhere near schools! Whoever is considering this should have their head examined.

I live in Culver (97734). All my children are grown. No homeless camps near schools, daycare schools or residential areas, period.

Public safety! That seems like the last place to put it.

There is a lot at 9th and Wilson that could make a good camp. Flat close to medical and mental health services plus near utility hookups and patrol services

No it should not be nears schools and day cares. I agree we need one. Perhaps near community services and churches?

Homeless camps should be outside city limits not near our children.

It shouldn't be anywhere near kiddos. It's just bed planning and I'm sure the homeless people don't want to be in such an observed area, either. Has anyone asked the homeless where they think it should be?

This is bend Oregon it's one entire neighborhood. I'd like you expect the most part of that US citizens are us property. The US government is responsible for every single us person.

What’s the point of putting it further away from town? That cuts off their already-limited availability to food, clean water, medical support, and basic care. Your kids are gonna learn about homelessness one way or another, and our tax dollars will be going to something other than corpse disposal.

What does concern me is biased reporting about this issue. Every story is from the opposition. Why not interview Chuck Hemmingway or Jim Porter, who are board members for Central Oregon Villages? The community gets info from you, you should provide both sides, not just opposition point of view.

Charlie Kirk was a man of faith and gave his very life for the values I stand for. He was a voice heard around the world

He doesn’t deserve it. He is a nobody and spewed hateful rhetoric.

He was a racist, white supremacist, and very divisive figure. The political violence that ended his lift is a terrible thing but it’s something he helped foment. This is the most ridiculous idea I can imagine.

I never heard of this guy before he was murdered, but it looks like he had a track record of saying awful things, and fomented the conditions in society that led to his demise. That's very tragic, but there are other people more deserving of a day.

Though this is a tragic incident and a terrible time of violence in our country, Mr. Kirk was not an elected official. We should honor his family and respect them in many ways and I certainly have sympathy for his family. But this does not warrant aday in Oregon devoted to his name or his politics.

A highly partisan figure in American politics should never be given a day of observance for any reason. It should be acknowledge that violence is not acceptable in any form for any reason, but it should not be honored and given Publicity because of it.

He was not a government figure, and while I don’t condone the violence that took his life, he called on his supporters to bail out others that committed violence against elected government officials.

This guy was homophobic, racist, and anti women’s rights. While I think his murder is wrong, he is not a hero. He encouraged hatred towards people he didn’t agree with their lifestyles in his “teachings”. I don’t think Jesus would support him…he preached love for everyone!

We didn't create a Melissa Hortmann day and she was a good person. Charlie Kirk's rhetoric was about racism, sexism, mysoginism, and divisiveness. He was not a good person and represented everything that was NOT Christian.
