Yes! And the minute they come back stop them in there tracks and not let them set up again. This will eliminate future sweeps.

They shouldn't be there in the first place. Camps should only be allowed outside of city limits. Sweep away!

Maybe ppl will get tired of having to move enough that they will opt for a temporary shelter in a building or 1 of those single-bed homes like they are building in Portland. Saw on the news last night. tiny house with room for sgl bed and the "village" has community bathrooms and is managed onsite.

Triage housing services based on priority and need, overall people need to be willing to seek mental health support, abide by curfew and no drugs and no alcohol and rules like no pets, then, based on need first families with kids, then elderly then other adults

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.

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

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

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