Every community experiences a homelessness problem, but often to very unique extents. That's why local councils or government should be responsible for creating the game plan to combat homelessness, versus a state government that's unfamiliar with a city's needs. People can also step up to help ease these problems by their own motivation. Show Less

I really think that both local and state should work together to solve the problem

Tim Griggs

Why dont we leave it up to the lazy people that want to live off the state. Get a damn job. McDonald's is hiring.

Ka San

the "lazy people" - "mcdonalds is hiring comment" - completely ignorant.

Lani Shobe

sociologists are probably the only people who understand that trying to group them all together is asking for trouble. divide them into small groups and spread them out.

Kevin Crabtree

how can anyone be unemployed in this economy unless you are mentally challenged or Just Plain Lazy and only one of those deserves help

Oftentimes, state lawmakers have the most sweeping control over institutional changes that would help homelessness in several cities. That's the best and fastest way to make a change, in my opinion! Show Less

They raise our taxes so high that people become homeless, especially families.

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.

Loy Helmly

Missed glad recycling pickup twice.

Rick Allen

We do not even have any recycling in my area, no cardboard, no glass, no nothing!!!

Jacob Wilton

I have a business literally across the street from their office/dump location and still get consistently missed on recycling. I have been missed regularly on garbage as well. The city has the ability to pull their contract if this continues.

Kathi McDonald

I live in Crook County. We went a whole month without recycle pick up. The service is always on FB because of inconsistent service. We went two weeks with no garbage pickup. It's like this all over the city as well as out of city limits! VERY FRUSTRATING when you're paying for a service!

LOL. In Crooked River Ranch - we don't know what 'recycling' is. The garbage company totally did away with it. So - I feel no sympathy for some of you who have 'delays'.

Mark Mueller

Unfortunately we don't have curbsid pickup in rural Deschutes Co. Garbage PU has been good since its been Republic.

Dave Leverick

I have never had a problem with cascade disposal If there is a problem they notify by email and phone
