Our teens need a place to stay active that is not cost-prohibitive (skiing, private team leagues) and is accessible to all. My teen plays basketball, and there is literally ONE full public outdoor court and NO public indoor courts in this city. No basketball courts in this plan, however?????

It would somehow end up as an expense for property owners to pay for. The majority of our homeowner property taxes already go to schools as it is. This would undoubtedly end up costing property owners to fund such a complex. I am not in favor of having to fund anything else for schools.

These would pay for themselves if used correctly Medford has them and they are always full with teams Tournaments League's not to mention the tourism money just like the Mountain does Look at the big Picture I am a property owner also but money coming in would far out weigh the taxes

Trump is a clear danger to Democracy. I don't think MAGA people actually listen to his "speeches"/rambling offensive tirades of many half-truths.. but also easily disproven outright lies. How anyone can support him at this point, is bizarre.

I voted for Trump because of his policies. Harris has none, just the same terrible Biden policies.

A vote for the Democratic Party is a vote for one party rule. I never felt that way until the Biden administration took over and opened the border to allow so many to come across unvetted. I have never understood why it takes 3 to 5 years to get a green card. Makes no sense.

This type of tax will always be passed on to we consumers. Oregonians already pay an income tax. It's another heavy burden on Oregon consumers that will be passed on to us - the increased costs is nothing but a hidden tax.

This is a sneaky way to get sales tax in place and will add as much as 15% to the consumer's cost for retail purchases.

It's a hand out to the rich who can afford to live here only 200 days out of the year.
