Smoke is unhealthy and unattractive. Should find alternate use for the dead trees and vegetation - hog fuel, chips, burn in controlled atmosphere to create steam for electricity generation.

We live in the high desert, a dry environment prone to fires. With what has happened in CA, I am for any effort to thwart such a disaster as happened in Paradise, CA.

Prescribed burning has been going on for more years than I’ve been alive, it helps clean up the excess debris and undergrowth that fuels big wildfires.

The smoke from the Mega fires is much more intrusive and unhealthy for communities. Prescribed burns are conducted when air streams carry smoke away for the most part. 10x more smoke with uncontroll

It represents the heart of Sisters that has always been a western town with logging , cows and horses . we also have one of the most popular rodeos on the west coast Sisters Rodeo !

It’s befitting of our culture, our way of life. The Sisters Rodeo has made this town prosper..There is no “danger” putting this on the round about, that’s a silly reason to not want it there.

I live in Bend where we have many roundabouts, where we have various artwork, and I've not seen a situation where I feel drivers were distracted, even in our high traffic roundabouts. In my opinion that's a red herring. I think the statue would be an asset to Sisters promoting its history.

It’s a significant piece of History. Prineville has a statue and it IS STILL STANDING!
