Les Schwab's current location on Franklin Ave. makes for tougher access for customers - let it move to 3rd street!

It's a far better location than the existing spot on Franklin!

Tom Hamper

No sensible reason not to. They are already in that zon .

Bill Rogers

This whole ill considered Central Area Plan represents the desires of the Planning Department instead of the citizenry of Bend. Any decision that dilutes their plan is a good thing.

Eric Anderson

Opening the space on Franklin from an ugly tire shop and allowing Les Shwab an opportunity to move into a more eco friendly site is the right thing to do. Remember this commission also put OSU Cascad

Mou Chat Reed

That is a congested area where they are.

Another massive business along 3rd Street will only cause more traffic headaches. Keep Les Schwab off the main road.!

too many in town anyway just close it down Amazon sells tires for cheaper anyway

Valerie Schmucker

Move it out somewhere north or south of Bend. Schwaab takes up a huge area and 3rd St at the underpass just can't take anymore traffic, it's already become a nightmare.

Sam Ackerman

They are ready have service center on both the north and south side of town. They need one in the center of town as well

Johnny Mooney

It will totally create unnecessary traffic congestion

Since nobody sits outside in the cold of winter, why not remove all the outdoor eating areas at least in the winter??

Michael Turpin

Parking and city revenue out weigh the small gain in revenue the business say they receive.

Jay B Lane

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.
