Only professionals with experience should get paid. All on the current council are basically activists with their own personal agenda, none of them has experience and it shows at what they're spending our tax $$ on! If it's to much work they volunteered for then get more council members to join

No. They make decisions based on their personal agendas without a vote of the people. There's to much spending and property tax increases already without boosting their salaries. They passed an unnecessary environmental impact home inspection without the vote of citizens.

It would appear that CB is actually a city councilor.

Three garbage price increases in under two years, want a 10-15.00 water/sewer increase and a raise for themselves. Absolutely not.

Wrong, they vote for what the majority of Bend citizens want. You just aren't the majority.

No. I don't want my taxes going up anymore to pay for it and they make decisions based on their personal agendas without a vote of the people. The ridiculous environmental impact home inspection is a prime example. They are supposed to serve not reign. Totalitarian attitude.

Isn't it pretty part-time work? I think they only have a few meetings per month.

They work a lot outside of those two meetings.

Why don't you run, Gabe? If Oregon is too liberal for you, I'm sure Arkansas or some other red state would welcome you with open arms.

a well-informed population makes everyone safer... can't trust anything coming out of HHS, CDC, or RFKJrs mouth...not to worry tho, soon all the smart folks will get vaccinated and the MAGAs will die of a preventable disease because they chose not to get a shot...

RFK Jr. is dangerous and is dismantling health research funding and spreading false info about vaccines. The Alliance of Westcoast Governors was formed to ensure public access to credible info re: vaccine safety and efficacy. Anyone who thinks that's bad is obviously a MAGA idiot!

The us is based on laws, Follow the law. If you don't face the consequences. This will reduce chaos and improve general respect for the law. I am tired of illegal immigrants having more rights and protection than legal citizens!

The people who voted "Yes" for this obviously do NOT know the law. It is unlawful for T to send national guard troops into ANY state uninvited! He is just trying to intimidate and terrorize blue states, when red states have much higher rates! He is the felon/criminal who needs to be behind bars!
