As long as it brings with it some accountablity. If the point in time numbers come down over 2 years, great. If not, she should be fired.

Gabe West

Yes, and not looking like Portland or California is a good start also

Just another waste of our money!

Gabe West

You might be right

Nik Myles

Just more pandering

Jake M

Anyone who uses the word houseless is full of it to start with. One of the many people who make a living by saying all the right things and doing almost nothing.

Gabe West

Steven Daniels

Gabe would like to play both sides of the street, if you know what I mean. "Homelessness" is becoming one of the biggest industries in Oregon. Perpetuation of the funding of this industry primarily benefits those who could maybe do something otherwise worthwhile, not the needy.

annie Oakley

It's a clever way to spend tax money. That's about all.

Kimmy Wasatch

No, you can't help people if they don't want it. Houseless are pretty much doing what they want, legally or not.

How is this a Yes or No question? Does Yes mean more likely, and No less likely? Or does Yes simply mean, yes it affects me somehow?

Your question really needs to address wilderness camping as that activity impacts greatly the wilderness landscape. Day, permits, visits are far less destructive to the Three Sisters Wilderness and easier to obtain.

Your already paying for high gas prices to get there

Steven Daniels

"Your" already paying? Did you think the price of gas included admission to wherever "you're" going? How about Disneyland? "Your" already paying for the gas to go there so it should be free, right? Maybe if you fly they should pay you?

Just one more thing you have to pay for

Duane Wyman

It is enforced to preserve the overall wilderness experience to benefit all who recreate and obtain a wild connection to Nature.

Duane Wyman

Dude, try to hike the Wonderland Trail at MRNP. It is a lottery for dates - good luck.

The bums are camping in or near the canal by Brookswood. COID is good about expelling them quickly but the trash blows all over the place. People used to walk this trail all the time. Now I see the vagrants smoking crack/meth. My neighborhood that borders this is full of families.
