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

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.

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.

YES! We need another multi-tiered parking deck closer to the west side of downtown. the existing one is too far to walk from in bad weather or if you are elderly or incapacitated.
ReplyFace it, Bend is not the wonderful town it used to be. It's a big city with big city issues and mind sets. It will only get worse. Next they'll want to put meters in to "pay for fixing the problem".
ReplyI dont even try going any more now. No parking, even with parking garage.
ReplyWhy is there not designated parking for trucks? They create dangerous driving through town! Bend is so far behind this problem!
ReplyThat is one of the reasons I never go there. The other is because of all the derelicts.
