I think the fire department needs and should have the needed funds definitely. However it should come from other County department spending! I pay over $7,200.00 per year in property tax, thats $600.00 per month. Thats way to much now!, it needs to come other from county funds!.

To much monéy. We are all affected by higher prices maybe .25-.30 property taxes are high in Central Oregon. Next will be the police, the school district, the parks dept. Every agency wants more what about the elderly trying to keep their housing?

No, we already pay so much in taxes that you're going to add to the homeless situation. Many people are on a fixed income. These taxes are going to price people out of a home.

Take money from Parks and Rec. We most certainly don't need any more parks or trails. Taxes aren't for entertainment. The city is spending like drunken sailors and are a big reason that Bend is unaffordable. Property taxes are much to high. We need conservatives in city positions.

Don't call 911 if your house catches on fire if you're not willing to vote for this. And in DWR, there's a much higher probability.

Many of my students display addictive behaviors regarding their phones, and it has proven detrimental to their learning and social development. Any positive of cell phone use is vastly outweighed by negative consequences.

Long overdue. Students need to focus on being educated in school, not watching videos, playing games, & chatting with each other. Educators and others do not need the distraction that cell cause. If there are emergencies that students need to know about there are other ways for them to find out.

My teaching friends say it's been a battle to keep kids off their phones in class and wastes a bunch of class time time addressing this. How will this be enforced any differently though?
