Our neighborhood has clear sidewalks and walking paths, with crosswalks. It's so simple to get around on foot.

My neighborhood is so quiet and serene, always will be too the way it's designed, I'll not tell anyone where it is for fear of the hoards ruining our solitude, great neighbors and lollygaggin' strolls

Kevin Scoggin

We have sidewalks on all streets. What I don't understand is why people insist on walking in the bike lanes rather than on the side walks. Strange.

I live in NWX, and 1 of the reasons I moved here was for the sidewalks, the park, and the sense of community.

crossing Canal from Reindeer Ave to go to Safeway is dangerous with no cross walks

Barbara Sherman

No sidewalks, no streetlights. No place really off the pavement to walk.

South of Reed Mkt on 3rd. Sidewalks not cleared, Flooding at intersections. I take the bus and sometimes it is really hard to get to the bus stop.

Dechutes river woods need sidewalks but to do that they will have to annex it into the city which the city will raise taxes

I think if managed properly by the Super. The budgets are workable with fewer employees multi tasking and wearing more than one hat!Any buisness can benefit with improved efficiency!!

Is someone who lets their pet off-leash in restricted areas considered a 'bad pet owner?'

Even a friendly dog with excellent recall can cause real problems for the owner walking their reactive dog on leash; a dog running free is highly exciting to other dogs; it's not fair for the owner of the reactive dog to have to deal with that overstimulation in a "leash only" area.

robert weber

I recently I commented that it is not fair. But your comment makes me feel incorrect. I have had a reactive dog before and I feel that your comment is valid.

If it is a law and you break it regardless of what it refers to that is breaking the law- which by definition is criminal. If you put your pet in a situation that is unsafe that is your responsibility and ergo you are a bad pet owner. Pets are like our kids, it's our job to keep them safe.

Kim Ritchie

yes because they are putting their dog as well as people with leashed pets at risk. Not all dogs like other dogs and not all people are comfortable with strange dogs running up to them.

Ann Thomas

There are laws and rules for a reason. No one should think that laws and rules don't apply to them. If they want their dog off leash then go out in the woods where no one else is or to a fenced dog park.

Deborah Albright

BECAUSE most dog owners that do this have zero respect for others or property.. NEVER pick up poop and feel entitled

Nic Secor

There are leash laws for good reason. On a side note Bend Parks and Recreation need to put up signs at dog parks reminding owners that they are liable for damages their dogs cause to other dogs or humans under Oregon law. Bend PD treat dog parks like they are outside of their jurisdiction.

A bad dog owner is someone who is not able to care of the animal or mistreats the animal. The person is just not considerate of others and will break the law for whatever reason they may have. *if you have an aggressive dog it is the OWNERS responsibility to keep the dog under control anywhere

Payton Dixson

There are many factors, if your dog has great recall and obeys to stay in a heal being off leash is fine as the dog is still in verbal control. Dogs that do not listen should not be off leash.

robert weber

Maybe there pet is trusted and not reactive. Why does a none relative happy pet need to be restricted?
