Never should have been allowed in the first place! Bend needs to develop a site with bathrooms, showers and rules,like NO drugs and NO trash. At least Redmond is trying to help these people. Take a. Lesson from them. Get off the dime and solve the problem

I say move the campers off forest land and onto main street if you want public funding for homelessness in Bend to become an immediate priority!!!

They have had excessive amount of time to move off land they are not even allowed to live on!

They have had ample time to move. Vegetation reduction helps slow and or stop wildfires that will eventually hit that area and destroy millions of dollars worth of homes and people's lives.

Living in SE Bend I really enjoyed going to China Hat with my Jeep to off road and walk with my dogs. The thought of being shot has kept me from doing that for a while now. Good riddance to the homeless and make it where they can't come back.

it is public land, NOT someones home! The public cannot use it without fear of saftey. We DONT need another human caused fire that happens EVERY year out there, we have enough to worry about with mother nature fires. Time to move on!

Being homeless is usually the result of bad choices. My taxes help pay for government land. Living there rent free and creating tons of garbage, being a true threat to causing wildfires, behaving in a lawless manner angers too many of us who manage to pay for real housing. Move them out now.

We all have problems in life why do they think it is ok to do what they are doing, when the rest of us pay our taxes, go to work, get counseling if we have problems. The amount they spend on drugs, they could pay rent. It’s a choice and their choice is to do drugs and not work. DEATH and TAXES!!!

This homeless problem is a choice. These people are drug addicts that need to get clean and go back to work. They should be put into rehab while being counseled for their personal problems. Once clean they should be put to work doing tasks that prisoners do. If they refuse, then jail them.

The Homeless Campers are the wrong people on the wrong landscape due to their lack of cognitive awareness of fire. I and many others are willing to share grace for their position in life when they are willing to improve their situation through counseling, accepting shelter to transition life.

They are humans and have no other options.We try not to let that happen to unwanted pets, yet have no problem in letting it happen to, what many consider, unwanted people!

Had stranger bring me my mail, found left on top of mail boxes. Have had other neighbors bring my mail that was placed in their mailboxes
ReplyIn Aug. I went 7 days without 1 piece of mail, including junk. I have informed delivery so I see what I should get. I have "lost" important mail like car titles or finacial stmts every few months!
ReplyWe're part of a cluster box. We get notifications that our packages have been delivered but they're never there. I've contacted post office many times but nothing is ever done about it.. HELP!!!
ReplyMy bank statement ended up in my neighbors box. He hand delivered to us.
ReplyDon't mail your ballot in put it in the drop box
ReplySome days we don't even get delivery.
ReplyWe live in a NE Bend Apt complex and twice I found whole banks of the boxes left open after the USPS delivery. That was about 10 days ago. Hasn't happened again. Still, not good!
ReplyDRW uses a 2nd party courier. We get packages shoved in our box ruining the contents. Lately, the courier has pried open our box to stuff packages inside to avoid delivering to our house! Awful!
ReplyOur mailboxes were left open yesterday, too! Our mail service is beyond awful. I emailed KTVZ with the story from our neighborhood and the photo of the open mailboxes.
ReplyI have lived in 6 states in the US, and have NEVER seen more abysmal postal service than here in Bend. Mis-deliveries are a regular occurrence. Now mailboxes left open. Postmaster here is incompetent.
ReplySaturday was the last day we received mail until yesterday, Thursday. Carrier said no overtime allowed and too much mail and packages to deliver. Subs refused to get all the mail delivered.
ReplyOur neighborhood has found our mail person leaving all of the mail boxes open and the packages laying in the street while she is in the truck smoking. Many open and empty packages and missing mail.
ReplyWe have had mail come a week than when its supposed to and sometimes we get it at 8pm to 9pm and/or on Sunday or days like Columbus Day.
ReplyMy mail from the Redmond post office has been delivered to other addresses several times over the past year . See cases: 11650041, 13143787, 15459838,. PO says whey will fix, but nothing happens.
