Expand wilderness area boundaries, and ban all motorized vehicles except on designated highways.

Yes. Get the homeless out of there so we are safe to go in.

Stop burning our forest. Nature takes care of it self better. You are robbing animals of their homes and food and causing health problems for peolpe by burning every year .

Greenery holds moisture. Burning dreis everyrhing out, increasing fire danger. I've lived here my entire life, fires incearesed after agencies started burning our forest every year. ( to prevent fires)

This is a loaded question. If it means clearing out sick trees and fuels, creating fire breaks and logging and replanting, then yes. If it’s a hands off, nature takes its course method with massive fires burning out of control then no. Define what “protection” means.

This is where people who burn fire wood come into play. The forest service, blm need to allow for that and stop restricting areas for people to go get the wood for heating.

Not by climate activists, their agenda in UN American and controlling. China is pouring millions of dollars to Climate activists to make us more dependent on then, and much weaker without Fossil fuels.

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.

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??

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.
