I prefer to buy a real tree because there's nothing like having one. It just makes Christmas better!

I'd rather support Oregon families AND clean air than a Chinese factory.

Ben Hargis

There's enough fake in this world. I'll take real.

Angel Jin

The smell mmmmm

C. Adrian Clark Jr.

Old fashioned.

I really prefer a real tree, but I gave up on them a few years ago. I bought a really beautiful, real-looking fake tree at Home Depot several years ago, that already has lights and red berries and pine cones. and a little flocking. It still looks great. Am very happy with it!

Don't actually celebrate Christmas. I celebrate Hanukkah, but I do like the real trees when I see them around.

I prefer an artificial one because I can use it the next year.

Allergic to real trees!

Michael Miller

We've had an artificial tree for years and it's paid for itself many times over. The last real tree we bought soon began to smell like rotting vegetation.

Dianne Price

It's good for many years! If it gets dusty--put it in the shower!!

Gabe West

We had a real tree once that got dry and alot of needles fell out

Beginning to look like the city wants to be a mini Portland. Not what Central Oregon is all about.

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.

Delaney Gates

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.

SunnySunshinestein

Get it done, it's way past time.

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.

Why do Bend residence have to accommodate Jefferson county. I'm sure someone up there can figure a way go pump the water they need out of Lake Billy Chinook

Alma and Bruce Miller

I agree with commissioner Patti Adair - there are other alternatives.

Robert 'Lew' Lewandowski

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