the homeless should be picking up the highway trash in exchange for vouchers for all the benefits they get like shelters,food,showers etc. no vouchers no freebies. I work every day for my vouchers, its called money. I don't work i get no money I get no food, shelter etc. Save tax $$.

Put people to work cleaning up the roadways. Even the stretches of highway that are "adopted" don't get the attention they need.

The trash I have noticed seems to be remnants of homeless encampments.

Made a trip to Redmond this past weekend and was shocked at the amount of garbage on the roadside. What happened to prisoners helping clean it up?

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.
