Piping the canals to conserve water is the logical next step. Where does Commissioner Adair think the wildlife got a drink before the canals were made over 100 years ago? I will admit reducing Junipers and reinvigorating our wild grasslands makes sense.

The canals were not put in as "water features" for people's backyards. Build your own water feature and pay for the water. This water is meant for agriculture.

Commission Adair, where do you think wildlife get water when irrigation water is off Oct-March? Please share your plan and funding strategy for removing 5 million juniper trees. What will happen to the wildlife that live in those trees. Your argument is weak.

Wildlife has relied on these open canals for decades. There is no other option for critter water.

The city can spent millions on people who never lived in Bend but get everything for free and they leave piles of trash everywhere they go. Then the city says they don't have any money to fix streets where taxpayers live Something wrong with this picture
ReplyMore homeless equals more trash. Pretty simple equation. Thanks City Council
ReplyThe bums are camping in or near the canal by Brookswood. COID is good about expelling them quickly but the trash blows all over the place. People used to walk this trail all the time. Now I see the vagrants smoking crack/meth. My neighborhood that borders this is full of families.
