Sure, if social services are also on-site. Substance abuse treatment, mental health etc. I've seen shelters be effective when combination of these services in one location.

Why not? They need temporary placement and it's conveniently located. It's about time!

I didn't know the numbers of Bendites that are homeless until Carolyn E. said that on the news. Was that over 70% !!?

Quit enabling. Stop providing handouts to individuals who can work! The people who are provided shelter should have to be held to pick up their trash and find a job within a short time and get our. This is obnoxious anymore. Spineless enablers

We don't need to be drawing in more homeless people. We already have enough as it is.

No, There are empty buildings they could put the homeless in. Make the hotel for families low income or as a women's shelter.

Do you think it would stop here? When it's full what are you going to do next? But Hey! You did something! This is NOT dealing with the problem no matter how warm your virtue signaling little heart gets.

No because Bend needs actual long term rental housing for homeless & low income families who have a hard time qualifying for a rental. I have lived here all of my 57 yrs and I can safely say that City of Bend could care less about people/families in need.

This isn't solving anything long term. Why are they their? Lack of affordable housing, drug rehab, or job training? These would be better areas to address, Clean up the garbage camps intown as well. When did that become ok?

Why stop at a motel complex or two? Let's consider residential developments making accommodation to all who cry foul..........'cause that's what it'll take once the word gets out. There's enough tax payers here in CO to divy up for the cost it'll incur, don't you know!!

Do you complain about everything? It seems that way.

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.
