The only long-term solution to high housing costs is more housing.

Tax Payer subsidized housing projects have been tried before... They Don't Work because government taxes/subsidies run out (New York). Get rid of Urban Growth Boundaries.

Why? Everything the government touches get more expensive and fails in the long run.

As an airline pilot and someone who previously walked in that area on the East side of Bend, I am totally against the city ruining yet another nice area of town. And the discounted homes for teachers is BS, These are the same people who ditched our kids during Covid while everyone else had to work.

Right, that's why property values are plummeting and people are leaving in droves. 🙄

Sounds like a nice socialist housing project planned by government Marxist subsidized by hard working TAX Payers. Oregon needs to get rid of Urban Growth Boundaries and open land up for investment and create competition so contractors can build witch would increase supply & bring down some cost.

Bend is already overpopulated and has lost much of what made it such a nice place to live - namely, the beautiful natural areas in and around it that have been covered over with roads, subdivisions and businesses. If we stop building more neighborhoods and businesses, people will stop moving here.

Unless there is some sort of public health hazard, government has no business in destroying private property. Being an 'eye sore' doesn't cut it.

The owners promised to destroy it. Time for the wrecking ball.
