What is going on? Who took it upon themselves to ruin Christmas for the rest of us. How does Visit Bend like this? How many people visit here each year expecting to go down town for the lights and holiday atmosphere? Lame…. The ironic part is, Bend City is enabling more traffic 🤣.

CoB made a huge mistake with this new parking system. First off, it's impossible to see the sign long enough to figure out where spaces are. And how are visitors supposed to know where the listed parking areas are? We used to be proud of how magical the downtown was but now it looks dull. Boo on CoB

They are pretty sparse, was just down there yesterday and the missing lights were very noticeable, made downtown look cheap and not inviting at all. And have no idea how to use this parking signage - kinda stupid really.

The trees have been butchered. Based on the visual, real world outcomes it was a poor decision making and outreach process at all levels. Plus, the parking signs are distracting at a congested intersection. Policy Decision Grade: F

The Parking Manager shows no respect for Bendites at all, increasing parking fees, taking away the lights, trimming trees, he's a joke who needs to go back to where he came from.

Real tacky. Not worth taking kids to shop & see lights there. If I was shop owner who paid for lights display... I WOULD DEMAND MY MONEY BACK¡ They got ripped, ripped off.

No Twinkling lights, in the grand scheme of things, is pretty small potatoes.

To allow people to protect livestock and pets. Also working with wolves in Idaho, the conservationists that was speaking on the news didn’t tell the whole truth. Do the research, in Idaho since 2000 we have had problems with them going on killing sprees and not eating what they kill. It’s not rare.

Wolves are killing machines. Destroying deer and elk populations, and now destroying ranchers livestock. They should have never been brought back to Oregon.

Look at Yellowstone. Once reintroduced the habitat recovered from over grazing. God has a plan.

Wolf 158 was an outlier. ATYPICAL behavior, which you noted very briefly. Usually easy known deterrence or relocation methods work!! There is no need for a killing spree of these beautiful wild animals.

Farmers need to take other action, using horse patrol, 4 x 4 patrol, more employees. You can’t just kill everything that gets in your way.

They’ve been re-introduced after having been absent from the ecosystem for a very long time.

Just the same usual amount. It's not much of a problem at Discovery Park, tho. Owners seem to have good control of their dogs.

Leash kids. They're worse than dogs.
