Only professionals with experience should get paid. All on the current council are basically activists with their own personal agenda, none of them has experience and it shows at what they're spending our tax $$ on! If it's to much work they volunteered for then get more council members to join

No. They make decisions based on their personal agendas without a vote of the people. There's to much spending and property tax increases already without boosting their salaries. They passed an unnecessary environmental impact home inspection without the vote of citizens.

It would appear that CB is actually a city councilor.

Three garbage price increases in under two years, want a 10-15.00 water/sewer increase and a raise for themselves. Absolutely not.

Wrong, they vote for what the majority of Bend citizens want. You just aren't the majority.

No. I don't want my taxes going up anymore to pay for it and they make decisions based on their personal agendas without a vote of the people. The ridiculous environmental impact home inspection is a prime example. They are supposed to serve not reign. Totalitarian attitude.

Isn't it pretty part-time work? I think they only have a few meetings per month.

They work a lot outside of those two meetings.

Why don't you run, Gabe? If Oregon is too liberal for you, I'm sure Arkansas or some other red state would welcome you with open arms.

The apartments I live in have even had some people camp on the grass right outside our doors. Interesting that there wasn’t a designated area for them to move into before kicking them all out into the whole community. Now instead of them feeling safe they are constantly moving around.

When I started seeing all these encampments pop up along hwy 97. Is this what Bend wants?? I am disgusted how much we have to pay for a clean up that should have diverted in the first place. Not to mention the drug lord among those on Hunnell. It Infuriates me to see where my tax dollars go.

Duh! Where do you think they would go? I still say buying them a bus ticket to Portland (where they're welcome) is a lot cheaper than continuing to have to clean up their mess at the taxpayers expense.
