I think the fire department needs and should have the needed funds definitely. However it should come from other County department spending! I pay over $7,200.00 per year in property tax, thats $600.00 per month. Thats way to much now!, it needs to come other from county funds!.

To much monéy. We are all affected by higher prices maybe .25-.30 property taxes are high in Central Oregon. Next will be the police, the school district, the parks dept. Every agency wants more what about the elderly trying to keep their housing?

No, we already pay so much in taxes that you're going to add to the homeless situation. Many people are on a fixed income. These taxes are going to price people out of a home.

Take money from Parks and Rec. We most certainly don't need any more parks or trails. Taxes aren't for entertainment. The city is spending like drunken sailors and are a big reason that Bend is unaffordable. Property taxes are much to high. We need conservatives in city positions.

Don't call 911 if your house catches on fire if you're not willing to vote for this. And in DWR, there's a much higher probability.

Do you think these new rules will help reduce e-bike accidents?

Obviously, if kids who shouldn't be riding these bikes cannot ride them to school, that represents hours of the day that they won't be on them, being reckless, violating basic rules of the road, and putting lives, including theirs, in danger.

I have a business literally across the street from their office/dump location and still get consistently missed on recycling. I have been missed regularly on garbage as well. The city has the ability to pull their contract if this continues.

I live in Crook County. We went a whole month without recycle pick up. The service is always on FB because of inconsistent service. We went two weeks with no garbage pickup. It's like this all over the city as well as out of city limits! VERY FRUSTRATING when you're paying for a service!

LOL. In Crooked River Ranch - we don't know what 'recycling' is. The garbage company totally did away with it. So - I feel no sympathy for some of you who have 'delays'.
