I think there is a need for businesses to fully reopen. As long as they follow the basic covid-19 guidelines they should be able to reopen along with schools.

Oregon Constitution grants impartiality among all businesses. You either close ALL of them or you open ALL of them

Kim Oden

Yes, as long as they can do it safely. It's past time.

Amber Chan

To save the economy ...small businesses can't last much longer if they remain closed.

Kristin Grace

Many businesses are suffering. Many people are loosing their life accomplishments and savings. Children are suffering mentally and physically. Government should not be acting in a parental role making things mandatory, enough is enough.

Paige Tosello

COVID numbers are not correlated to indoor dining, this is causing an unnecessary hardship for businesses who follow social distancing protocols.

They should be able to stay open using precautions

Chloe Stills

So that we don't have more businesses closing permanently.

YES!! With an adjusted occupancy rate ALL businesses including gyms and sport facilities such as tennis, pickleball... as long as it isn't a contact sport should be able to OPEN UP!! The spread is coming for family gatherings and the under 30 crowd being irresponsible!!

Nik Myles

These lock downs do nothing but hurt Americans

Robert Northrup

Why not? Trump is gone. No reason now to destroy our economy. It is to late however too much damage has been done to recover. I anticipate a downward spiral into a black hole because democrats don't want a thriving economy.

You spend less time at a restaurant than students do in a classroom.

Christena

OMG YES- reopen as regular. Figure something else out.

Liz Mullin

It's only hurting our economy to remain closed. I've continued to work throughout this shutdown but many businesses have closed their doors for good. What has being closed really accomplished? Nothing because we were closed and the numbers still climbed. If people are afraid then stay home!

Rick Allen

Yes obviously, and most definitely, the business shut downs are hurting more people than the virus. Big stores are open, why destroy the small business especially the restaurants! Less than 1.4 % has come from restaurants. This is from Democrat's that love control ! We must bet Brown out of office

No, we have to follow the guidelines.

I think we need to follow the guidelines that have been set. I am still wary of having businesses fully reopened when the pandemic is still going on.

Unfortunately no. I do miss them and understand the frustration but let's take it slow.

Jeff Howerton

We are not through with this. Too many people are still getting sick!

Larry Yeargan

We need to trust the science. The federal government needs to develop a comprehensive program to defeat the pandemic which would include assistance to restaurants and gyms, since the states don't have the money to aid these important businesses.

Jan Dow

Covid can spread too easily in restaurants and gyms. With the new mutations of the virus being way more contagious, we can't take chances. Way more people can catch the new variant, have no symptoms, but be very contagious.

Latterdaysaint

Using precautions we they should be able to stay open

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.

Kati Magana

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?
