This is absolutely ridiculous. For travellers from Bend, it's too difficult to find transportation options, especially for the 5am flights to Seattle since you can berely get anywhere direct. This is nothing more than an unrealistic money grab.

PDX has covered parking for $24 a day

You can't compare RDM airport to other airports that have larger aircraft in and out. 24.00 is ridiculous. It's smarter to charge less & have more parkers than higher fees and fewer cars parking there.

Hell no, PDX is $12.00 a day.

It was stated that Eugene charges $27. But they have 3 different parking options. Short term at $27, Long term at $16, and Economy at $10. We don't have those options in RDM. PDX has the same 3 options. Short term $30, Long term $24, Economy $15. The airport rep is skewing the facts!

My trip to go see my 99 year old mom in Wisconsin is already outrageously expensive. I don't care if the Redmond Airport expands or not, it works just fine right now, in my opinion. This is a 62% increase in the cost and that's absurd! This is another money suck from the consumer. I vote no!

$24 a day is ridiculous. There is NO reason why it needs to be that high.

We are being nickle and dime to the brink. I'm going to take this opportunity to say to all Redmond residents. Stop voting in things that increases our property tax.

I'm also tired of hearing airliners fly over my house and vibrating things on my walls.

Larger airports have better facilities for less. Much better to just get a ride to the airport.

Parking shouldn't be funding the airport, just upkeep and expansion of parking services.

That's a ridiculous amount of money to add on top of an already expensive way to travel.

Why don’t they put a higher price tag on the closer lots and offer offsite cheaper parking. This would offer everyone a good option not just people who have more money.

Bend has a major focus on recreation. We need greater focus on keeping a focus on literature and education, especially considering our failures education of our youth. It seems like we need to improve our balance

Definitely need the library open on the east side. East side should be recognized as a viable part of of the community, not a "step child", who loses important items.

Bend doesn't need a new central library

Perhaps if you read something other than Fox News, you would appreciate what the library provides.

Once the new central one goes in down the road, what's the reason for continuing to rent this space in the strip mall?

We are losing too many large trees in Bend. Among other things, they are a carbon sink. We can't afford to lose them.

Just look at the RV park clear cut along Murphy Road and the Parkway overpass! Massive, stripping the land of mature Ponderosa Pines - totally not good! Wasn't Bend once proclaimed a "Tree City USA" resource? NOT.

The "New Bend" is in the pocket of the big developers, which includes allowing them to clear-cut huge areas of land while Bend pretends to be a "tree city". Look at the older developments, and you'll see how trees used to be saved. Builders need to work around the trees instead of destroying them.

For starters I like trees more than houses. And developers have gotten away with murder just clearing whole lots of every little bit of vegetation. Bend is losing a lot of charm and it gets worse every day.

Bend let the car wash on Reed Lane remove a beautiful tree! For a car wash! With no need! That area is empty and has little landscaping.

Yet you constantly say how the government should control women, LGBTQ+ communities, anyone that isn't a cis white male. You are a Nazi, Gabe. Just calling a spade a spade. And climate change is real, boo-boo. Your bishop must be mortified at your constant ignorance.

Bend is a densely forested area. You can’t build much larger than a shed without clearing tree. Why should the City be able to tell me what I can do with the trees on my property? Welcome to the Peoples Republic of Bend.

You should definitely move to an area where there's more simple-minded folks like yourself to hang with.
