I think this zone code change will be good for the city. It will create more housing and more jobs.

No, I don't agree with this.

I don't like the idea of having an apartment complex next to a business. It will bring more people to the area.

No, businesses should be along the railroad area and build the homes in neighborhoods. The zoning in Bend is crazy.

J H

The roads cannot support the additional traffic. Please don't turn Bend into Portland.... Or worse.... Los Angeles. Keep the beauty and quality of life here as it is.

Anthony Dehart

This city is being run very stupidly like the rest of the democratic run city's Yoo need to punch the urban growth boundaries out east of 27 th and turn 27th into a east side bypass like the plan was in the 80s and start working on living wage jobs and industry

Parking and city revenue out weigh the small gain in revenue the business say they receive.

Gary Dehm

Simply, they're unfair to other businesses. Each space represents potential income for one or multiple businesses. If parklettes are to remain, businesses should file an application per space with an associated annual fee, subject to increase rent cost/year. They cause more problems than they solve.

Pat Glandon

I don't shop downtown or eat due to lack of parking.

Since nobody sits outside in the cold of winter, why not remove all the outdoor eating areas at least in the winter??

Jay B Lane

Nobody is sitting outside in the winter months and Street dining should be limited May - October months. Also what is not needed is 4 season dining in these structures (walls. Heaters, etc) when restaurants have room inside. If eateries don't have room inside, shouldn't be taking public space

A few circles around the area, I always find a spot. It’s not any different than any other city. I like seeing people enjoying the outdoors. That’s why we live here.

NO, with all the info out there about scams, it is inexcusable for anyone savvy to be taken in by such. However, seniors are particularly vulnerable, and family should assist them in avoiding scams. I had to take away my mother's phone when she entered assisted living and later memory care.
