Let people cut it up for fire wood! So many couldn't get wood because of the fire danger and cutting was closed. I for one do not have enough wood to last the winter.

Len Parsons

And let people cut them up for firewood

Sell the lumber.

They're dying and hazardous to drivers, so why not remove the lumber and put it to good use?

HELP PEOPLE BY SELLING IT CHEAPER THAN MOST THAT JUST MONEY HUNGRY!!! $25 A CORD WOULD HELP A LOT OF SENIORS ON S.S. THAT HAVE TO LIVE DAY BY DAY TO SURVIVE!!!

Robert Keepers

Give the wood to poor

Ka San

I agree with Leslie. Donate the wood to people who may not be able to afford to buy it.

Leslie Ann

Not sell but donate to those who need to heat with wood.

Gramma Jean

Let private firewood companies come there to clean it up, then sell it.

sharder8

Leaving it that provides more fuel for future fires. The profits from selling the lumber will help the industry and provide jobs and funds for reforestation projects or upgrades to the rec areas.

Matthew Carter

What's the point of leaving a bunch of dead trees along the road that ODOT (or whom ever) killed??? I get trees are natural but their demise was not.

GT Thomas

Duh do you really have to ask why we should not waste wood.

Richard Dillard

I would hate to see these trees go to waste and the forest service could put the money to good use

Mou Chat Reed

Use them for heavens sake.

Duane Oakes

I would not sell the lumber. what I would like to see is the lumber milled into post and other timbers to use on our roads and hwys. This lumber could be used for guardrails and signage along Oregon.

Karen Rickard Smith

firewood maybe???

Sharon Catania

Do not leave them there, but do not cut them down for selling, either. They have been sprayed with herbicide, so if someone were to burn them as firewood, it would be a risk to health.

Sabrina Anne Tanned

This is obvious, right?

Michael Stream

Sell it off to highest bidder. Use funds to restore other forest areas. This also gets it all cleaned up to help in avoiding more forest fires.

Teri Williams

Sell the lumber....need to open our forests to timber sales and clean up the mess.

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.

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?
