Yes as long as they find a way for the bicycle riders to pay for them like I have to pay to drive my car on the road / motorcycle on the road / kayak on the water / boat on the water .

Bike lanes are great, but cyclists have to follow the same rules as vehicles. Also vehicles have to pay attention for cyclists so they are not hit and killed. Especially since they are going the same directions.

Yes because bikes should never be on any roads!

Bike riders have very little respect for the traffic laws. As a driver around Bend every day, it's a challenge to avoid bikes that disregard the laws of the road. I think that all bikes should be licensed to pay for bike lanes and cited for traffic violations.

They act like Bikes are the solution to Bend's infrastructure problem. All my life the city has flexed on how fast growing Bend is, yet they've never done anything to increase road sizes, add any bipasses or cut throughs. Here we are decades later seeing the impact of poor planning. Also, winter...

Bike riding is commendable, but a seemingly tiny minority routinely does it.

Bend traffic is already out of control, adding more bikes and lanes compounds the issue, also bike riders pay no fees to provide road maintenance, and many on sidewalks and not paying attention to traffic.

Why have more bike lanes when most of the bikers seem to be on the sidewalks anyway?

They tend to ride in the middle of the road anyways.

Wouldn't mind, it's quite quite a drive. Of course it would be hot.

We should all be in favor of anything that creates a safer community for all of us, regardless of political affiliation. Since our federal funds have been decreased, we need another form of revenue to supplement our fire fighting revenue.

These things have been voted on and approved by voters in the past already. This is just another example of hands out for $$ from property owners. I am against ANY new taxes on property owners. We are tapped out!! Tax alcohol, cigarettes, whatever else to make EVERYONE share in the pain.
