Do you think the city of Bend should have high rise buildings or expand its urban growth boundaries?
It should go up!
It should go out!
I think the city should keep expanding its urban growth boundary. It would create jobs and support housing needs.

It is better for the environmental impact to allow more housing in rural areas. EXPAND. Go OUT.

A high-rise "Trump Tower" located on the Westside of Bend would be nice. It would also provide many local employment opportunities, luxury housing, business conference space, as well as long-term tax and tourist destination revenue. 🤔
ReplyTell you what. I'll connect with the mayor and have him help me post two, big shiny painted 4'X9' sheets of plywood on each end of town stating that ....."SORRY FOLKS, WERE ALL FULL UP!!!...Know this all: who come: (Your in Central Oregon for a good time........not a long time!!)
ReplyMight as well look like Portland at this point because many Portlanders are moving here.
ReplyReach for the sky, Bend! Be that big city you know you want to be. Then expand up and down the 97 corridor. Build it and "they" will come. And we all know who "they" are.
ReplyHelp fight sprawl by building up.
ReplyLet's keep the footprint of the city smaller and be able to provide services that will reach everyone. Transportation, events, schools, healthcare, shopping, etc.
ReplyWe need to prevent urban sprawl. Also, we cannot expand out until we have infrascructure. Sewer lines, road construction and power lines are expensive.
