It would just create another bureaucratic requirement for residents at the expense of homeowners and would not accomplish anything. Prospective buyers can already higher a home inspector to evaluate a home before they purchase. the City Council should BUTT OUT!

That should be up to the buyer to do that NOT the seller.

Another perfect example of the hypocrisy of the current city council, who seems determined to ruin Bend. They whine and cry about affordable housing, then add more red tape to make houses more expensive. It's up to a buyer to understand the home they're buying, not the government!!

It only adds to the cost of buying an already over priced home. If buyers want to know what an energy score is, they can pay for an energy survey on their own when buying the house, at their own expense. This council needs to start listening to what their constituents want, and stop wasting time.

Just another example of government sticking their nose into private citizens' personal affairs! If a potential buyer and seller want to work that issue out as part of a (potential) sale, that should be THEIR choice, not a mandate by the City of Bend....

To allow people to protect livestock and pets. Also working with wolves in Idaho, the conservationists that was speaking on the news didn’t tell the whole truth. Do the research, in Idaho since 2000 we have had problems with them going on killing sprees and not eating what they kill. It’s not rare.

Wolves are killing machines. Destroying deer and elk populations, and now destroying ranchers livestock. They should have never been brought back to Oregon.

Wolf 158 was an outlier. ATYPICAL behavior, which you noted very briefly. Usually easy known deterrence or relocation methods work!! There is no need for a killing spree of these beautiful wild animals.

Farmers need to take other action, using horse patrol, 4 x 4 patrol, more employees. You can’t just kill everything that gets in your way.

They’ve been re-introduced after having been absent from the ecosystem for a very long time.

Just the same usual amount. It's not much of a problem at Discovery Park, tho. Owners seem to have good control of their dogs.

Leash kids. They're worse than dogs.
