The west side is too expensive for most families to live in, thanks to the lack of diversity and availability in housing. More multi-family options may increase traffic, but will help enrich the neighborhood in the long run. Plus, as OSU-Cascades expands, options for student housing will need to expand as well.

The west side elite need some diversity.

The housing crisis is critical here. Yet Bend continues to not realize the issue at hand and continues to support the "Not in my backyard" attitude.

Sam Ackerman

Lots of room on all sides of Bend. You just have to be willing to expand some. But no matter where they are built, many lane roads need to me made 4 lanes.

Carol Fulkerson

That is where the campuses are...Not everyone wants to live on campus.

Ken Koenig

The westside of Bend needs to share in owning the housing growth / needs that the city is experiencing - rather than continuing to burden primarily the east side.

Bend's west side has specific boundaries and cannot grow much more than it already has. Maybe landlords can avoid gauging rent prices long enough to attract a more diverse tenant base, easing the need for multi-family options. Show Less

The traffic infrastructure on the west side can not handle any more. Affordable multi-family housing (only) would be welcome once the City gets caught up.

No need

Traffic is already bad enough without high-density housing exascerbating the issue.

Brandy Barr

MORE AFFORDABLE HOUSING IS NEEDED EVERYWHERE FOR SENIORS AND DISABLED!

Joal Smith

There is way too much traffic on the west side of town. A developers fee of $60,000 won't do very much to relieve the residents and visitors traffic woes. Unsafe for residents, first responders and t

Now that we are expanding the UGB; we should build them on the eastside. The Westside can't handle the traffic; especially if there's a fire.

Cramming people together produces unlivable communities.

Because the president wants to put America first and make it as prosperous as it once was. #MAGA

Steven Miles

Exec branch has the responsibility to manage the economy with other countries, congress can’t even produce an annual budget - look at this democrat shutdown, they want to spend another 1.5T on healthcare subsidies- sorry, we are in the hole $35T, wake up America.

Congress has the power of the purse, if only they would use it. but they're too scared of being primaried by him. Of course, he should not have 1/3 of the powers he has adopted, whether constitutional or not. He's an abomination!!

Tom Pummer

Trump’s tariffs violate the constitution. Congress holds the nations purse strings. I can’t believe we hardly heard a peep from members of Congress on his actions. Spineless

Rick Martinson

Absolutely not. The Constitution gives that authority to Congress, NOT the executive branch of the government. Trump’s actions are absolutely illegal and unconstitutional. But he doesn’t care, and has been giving Congress and the American People the finger for the past 10 months.

Mike Moreno

Memo to trump...there is a document in this country called the Constitution. Read it, learn it, live it.
