Avoiding more deaths makes these questions simply silly. Those that resist vaccine & masks are the weak minded being culled from the herd.

Masks don't work and you can still get covid with the vaccine

No. Because those who do will and those who dont want to won't. People are tired of being owned.

I don't follow leaders, but I watch the parking meters. Only followers follow leaders.

We are done with masks. I'm vaccinated, and anyone else can get vaccinated. Now it is time to get to herd immunity. If you want to wear a mask, knock yourself out.

I no longer go downtown to shop because parking has been too difficult for me to find without walking several blocks to the store I want to go to.

I have lived in Bend for over 50 years and until this summer have totally supported the down town business. Now I go to the shopping centers and also use Amazon. I don't like this but have no choice until downtown business forces the city to find an answer to this. Maybe downtown should be for the

I'm disabled, so parking in the public garage is too far for me to walk sometimes with my heart condition. More disabled parking would be nice downtown by the store fronts.

I avoid going to Bend as much as possible. I don't like anything about being in any big city. As for parking there, I only go to medical facilities and sometimes the Northside malls, so parking is generally not an issue. Driving in Bend is much worse than finding parking in Bend.

The only time I have trouble finding a parking spot is when someone without disabled plates or a hanger decides to park in a disabled zone.

No, I never have trouble finding parking in downtown Bend because I never go to downtown Bend.

I think we should have a dedicated place for the homeless. There are many people who don't have a home and there should be a site for them.

So that trash doesn't build up it safe and keeps the community from freaking out. A place to put a trailer for homeless people with access to dumping and water and electricity. Some homeless need a place that is safe and worry free. Go out and talk to the the homeless and see what they need.

City of Bend is taking steps--albeit baby steps--but an old motel is being converted and 3 managed camps are in the works. Will help only 10 percent of our unhoused population, though.

We need a controlled area to help keep the trash down. There could be people in charge of directing disposal of unwanted items, trash and out and out garbage. Supply areas for hand washing, showers, and laundry.
