Spouse has no standing in government and Gov Kotek should resign like Kitzhaber. Just another example of pushing dem, liberal and lgbtq policies on citezens. Again, you get what you vote for.

Deb Kizer Dyck

Her "spouse" has NOT been voted in. Why should she have a say in anything more than a single vote just like each Oregonian?!

MaryLou R Haffner

We are to avoid all appearance of potential wrong doing. This is especially important when public office is held.

Alma and Bruce Miller

It is wrong and we the people are sick of this double standard BS you get voted in and it's never good enough you have to add in all these extra agenda's. No

Bendlover

Was the first spouse voted in? I didn't think so...

Kevin Crabtree

did not vote this person into a leadership position

Lisa Perkins

She is her wife and was not the one voted into office

k san

Prob'ly not. She was not voted on.

Lee Gee

She is stepping out of her elected roll. She is being every hypocritical in that she apposed Kitshopper why should she be any better. Her and her partner need to go.

Mark Mueller

Appears to be more "self serving" corruption in our government.

Brian Klein

I'm not sure why it would be so.

Of course not, trump will make America great again!

I am glad that we were Blue over all on the West coast. Those flyover states have too much say.

I prefer metering to increasing the number of lanes. More than one lane makes roundabouts much more dangerous to navigate, especially with drivers who are not locals and do not understand how roundabouts work. 2 lanes = many more accidents plus 2 lanes need to be a much larger diameter for safety.

You're literally bumper to bumper from the Bill Healy bridge. The people from the Old Mill Never Cease coming.

If it weren’t so maddening, our City counselors would make for a cast in a Monty Python show. They befuddle themselves with ludicrous ideas and foist them onto the taxpayers. Bend is becoming a laughing stock to outsiders and a source of continual angst for the residents.

SUE ABERNATHY

Isn't that why they put the round about in because stop lights were going to cost to much????? Just saying.

sara kreps

doesn't this defeat the purpose of a roundabout? might as well make it a regular intersection with lights.

Dave Krajczynski

If people used the roundabout correctly and actually filled in the gaps and went when there was an opening it would flow just fine. People wait for a bus sized gap before they go.

Jeff Sanders

The people coming from the Old Mill Never Cease coming. Traffic is backed up to Bill Healy bridge everyday. At least in the winter.

Chris Gonzales

A roundabout's primary purpose in traffic management is to improve safety and traffic flow, resulting in less congestion and fewer accidents compared to traditional stoplight intersections. Key words: Flow, less congestion and Stoplights. Now they want to add Stoplights!!! City waste at its Best!

The point of the roundabouts was to get rid of lights

Fletcher Jackson

What's the point of having a light at a roundabout? The point of a roundabout is to get rid of the lights. Widen it and start growing for the people coming here. The way bend builds, everything is obsolete by the time it's done.

Tim Walker

I drive through this around about several times everyday and it is never an issue very rarely. Is it an issue? The reason they put roundabouts in for the first place was to get rid of stop lights and stop signs
