Deschutes County has enough of these resorts using up natural resources. They don't help our housing shortage. These houses are second and third vacation homes for non-residents who benefit from tax breaks.

Nothing wrong witb tax breaks

Wyman Yes. These "Resort Communities" become nothing more than a 2nd home refuge for wealthy out-of-state residents. Their wealth adds little to the local economy, other than higher home prices for county residents. As they say in South County - "Don't Bend La Pine".

Melissa Bearman

Central Oregon is running out of water. Houses should be for full time residents not wealthy vacation rentals and second vacation homes.

Many of my students display addictive behaviors regarding their phones, and it has proven detrimental to their learning and social development. Any positive of cell phone use is vastly outweighed by negative consequences.

Sam Davis

Long overdue. Students need to focus on being educated in school, not watching videos, playing games, & chatting with each other. Educators and others do not need the distraction that cell cause. If there are emergencies that students need to know about there are other ways for them to find out.

David Kline

My teaching friends say it's been a battle to keep kids off their phones in class and wastes a bunch of class time time addressing this. How will this be enforced any differently though?

Between cell phone usage and lower graduating standards, OR is failing students
