Bend needs affordable housing to buy. Building rentals only increases the investors opportunities for greed. We need more home ownership so people can build value. The globalists goal is no more private property for citizens and they must be stopped.
The term affordable is ambiguous. Affordable for who? When a house payment is less than rent yet one still can't afford the house payment. Yeah! That's affordable!
Thank you Christine drazen for putting it on, that's horrible bend city council didnt go, I wish Christine drazen would have won but because of fraud she didn't
Yes, I agree. I no longer believe that elections in liberal states are honest. From city to state level. I also believe that Christine actually won. Can anyone believe that people keep voting for the disasterous policies that are destroying every liberally run city and state? Portland or California?
To many regulations for anything you build or do. Between Taxes/Fees/Regulations or anything the government touches it makes everything cost more. Less government all our lives would be better. Did you know the Number 1 employer in Oregon is the government?
I prefer metering to increasing the number of lanes. More than one lane makes roundabouts much more dangerous to navigate, especially with drivers who are not locals and do not understand how roundabouts work. 2 lanes = many more accidents plus 2 lanes need to be a much larger diameter for safety.
If it weren’t so maddening, our City counselors would make for a cast in a Monty Python show. They befuddle themselves with ludicrous ideas and foist them onto the taxpayers. Bend is becoming a laughing stock to outsiders and a source of continual angst for the residents.
If people used the roundabout correctly and actually filled in the gaps and went when there was an opening it would flow just fine. People wait for a bus sized gap before they go.
A roundabout's primary purpose in traffic management is to improve safety and traffic flow, resulting in less congestion and fewer accidents compared to traditional stoplight intersections. Key words: Flow, less congestion and Stoplights. Now they want to add Stoplights!!!
City waste at its Best!
What's the point of having a light at a roundabout? The point of a roundabout is to get rid of the lights. Widen it and start growing for the people coming here. The way bend builds, everything is obsolete by the time it's done.
I drive through this around about several times everyday and it is never an issue very rarely. Is it an issue? The reason they put roundabouts in for the first place was to get rid of stop lights and stop signs
Too many regs in general. One reason we're 5000 units short of what we need.

ReplyNothing about it is affordable. Pure greed
