The law stopping them from running is a cheap power grab by the democrats. And, unconstitutional.

Yes they had to do that to keep the radical left from further damaging our state. Vote the left out so we can get back to being America instead of a 3rd world country.

if i feel that stopping at a stop sign is not legal, should i just run it? The message that is being sent is loud and clear that knopp is sending, he"ll do what he wants. if i didn't show up for work as many days that he did i would be fired. the law is the law.

The voters have their say. We shouldn't be paying these people for walking out on their duties.

Walking out is not representing Oregon. Vote to express your opinion and make sure it represents your constituents.

Walking out on your job/duty is disrespectful.

Of course not. They knew before they walked out what the consequences would be, they need to buck up and face the music.

We voted on this, it passed and now those Republicans who walked out and didn't do their job want a "do-over". Well, boo hoo, this is the results of your actions (or inactions).

Of course not. The voters overwhelmingly said they shouldn't. Don't show up for work? Then lose your job.

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.

Is there nothing that central oregon won't waste tax dollars on? Have we become so dependent on A.I. that we can't even find a parking spot without help? Seriously!

How stupid is this? It will only cause an urgency to hurry up and get a spot before someone else..... The signs will be vandalized and spray painted on.

the city needs to get our parking spots back from the restaurants that are making money for their pockets.

Sign is so difficult to read. If you are anything but the vehicle in front (wall and greenwood specifically), now vehicles are slowing down IN the intersection to try and read it.
