H
I
can
sure
ask
so
we
do
have
some
attendees
in
the
audience
if
you're
here
today
and
you're
wanting
to
provide
a
public
comment,
I'm
going
to
ask
you
to
use
the
raise
hand
feature
at
the
bottom
of
your
screen
and
you
should
have
the
option
to
click
a
button
and
raise
your
hand,
and
we
will
determine
how
much
time
you
get.
Based
on
how
many
folks
we
have
wanting
to
provide
comment.
A
A
Okay,
how
about
save
that
comment
for
your
report
and
we'll
see
where
that
takes
us,
and
with
that
I
would
like
to
invite
jen
rusk
to
help
us
or
remind
us
of
the
work
we
did
and
where
we
stand
with
the
draft
of
our
strategic
plan,
which
we
will
consider
for
approval
in
our
next
meeting
jen.
It's
all
yours.
B
Right
good
to
see
you
everybody,
so
what
we're
gonna
do
today.
Briefly,
because
I
know
you
have
a
really
full
agenda-
is
michaela
sent
out
in
the
packet.
The
draft
of
the
strategic
plan
narrative
we're
going
to
go
through
that
just
to
make
sure
I
have
all
the
correct
information
in
there
and
then
specifically
we're
going
to
go
through
the
work
plan
and
just
to
see.
B
Are
there
any
questions
or
final
revisions
that
you'd
like
to
see
and
then
I'll
step
back
from
this
meeting
finalize
those
and
as
han
said,
then,
you
will
approve
the
final
version
that
you're
going
to
talk
about
today
at
your
july
meeting.
So
that's
the
plan
and
I'm
going
to
go
ahead
and
share
screen,
let's
see,
and
so
what
will
help
once
I've
got
share
screen,
I'm
not
going
to
see
people's
faces.
B
Okay,
so,
starting
with
this
just
this
is
the
what
we're
calling
the
strategic
plan
narrative,
it's
a
three-page
document
and
what
I'd
like
to
know
is
just:
are
there
any
questions
or
revisions
on
just
that
narrative
part?
So
the
first
page
there's
a
description
of
the
neighborhood
leadership
alliance.
B
B
B
Okay,
so
what
I'm
going
to
do
is
we're
going
to
skip
the
next
sections
where
we
look
at
the
goals
and
objectives,
I'm
going
to
talk,
I'm
going
to
handle
that
in
the
work
plan
format.
But
if
you
move
to
that
second
page,
the
nla
vision.
This
was
the
vision
that
was
originally
developed
by
the
nla.
We
did
not
revise
that,
nor
did
I
hear
there
needed
to
be
a
revision,
so
I'd
just
like
to
hear
any
concern
or
any
questions
about
the
vision,
as
it
is
stated
for
the
nla.
B
B
Okay,
no
changes
all
right
wow
that
was
easy,
all
right.
Next,
we're
going
to
move
through
the
work
plan
itself
and
what
I've
done
is
broken
this
out
simply
by
the
goal,
the
objective
that
you
discussed
and
we
did
some
work
on
and
then
the
actions
some
of
which,
from
the
original
work
session
we
did.
There
were
some
changes
that
were
proposed.
We
captured
those
on
some
areas.
There
was
michaela
needed
to
go
and
check
to
make
sure
some
of
the
the
way
we
had
worded.
B
Things
would
be
acceptable
or
some
of
the
suggestions
would
work.
So
there
may
be
questions
about
those
things.
Please
bring
those
up
if
we
go
through
these
and
you
see
those
so
starting
with
the
goal
one,
this
first
objective:
are
there
any
changes
to
these
three
actions
or
the
objective?
Just
for
this.
I
I
just
have
a
a
question
yeah.
This
is
elizabeth.
I
was
wondering
on
the
two
that
say,
evaluate
if
there's
an
actual
method
of
evaluation
and
the
third
one
says
using
baseline
metrics.
I
just
had
a
question
about
if,
if
we
already
have
a
method
of
evaluation
or
if
that's
something
that
has
to
be
developed
and
I'm
just
asking
sort
of
of
curiosity
great.
A
I
G
During
our
land
use
working
group
meetings,
we
have
talked
about
the
past
land
use
survey
that
was
conducted
for
all
of
the
land
use
chairs,
and
then
we
also
did
the
community
survey
and
we've
talked
about
how
we
want
to
duplicate
those
efforts
and
re-survey
both
of
those
groups
to
try
to
measure.
Has
there
been
a
change?
Is
there
any
improvement
in
that
process,
but
in
terms
of
like
really
technical
evaluation,
we're
not
past
that
we're
not.
We
haven't
done
anything
beyond
that.
G
I
F
Yeah,
quick
follow-up
to
that.
I
know
I'm
new,
so
there's
probably
things
that
I
have
missed.
So
forgive
me
if
these
these
questions
have
been
addressed
in
in
the
past,
but
I
I
had
that
curiosity
as
well
elizabeth
around
the
mechanisms
for
evaluation-
and
I
know
we'll-
discuss
the
hb
2001
letter
later
in
the
meeting.
F
But
I
I
know
that
the
doesparkingmatter.com
website
was
referenced
in
that
and
I
just
was
wondering
if
that
that's
like
a
rogue
community
group
that
set
that
up
or
if
that
was
an
nla
or
n
a
kind
of
initiative,
and
if
so
wanting
to
see
us
move
away
from
that
kind
of
a
platform
in
our
evaluations
and
metrics.
Does
that
make
sense.
G
G
To
answer
your
question,
the
does
parking
matter
that
was
born
out
of
a
group
of
volunteers
that
are
very
active
with
the
neighborhood
association.
It
was
not
an
nla
sponsored
survey.
It
was
some
people
have
criticized
it
as
a
an
unscientific,
valid
survey.
However
anytime
you
get
1200
or
more
responses
to
a
survey
like
this
survey
achieved.
I
think
we
need
to
take
a
step
back
and
say:
wow
people
really
do
care
about
this
topic
and
they
really
are
interested
in
the
discussion.
G
This
isn't
just
a.
How
do
I
put
it?
It's
not
a.
I
wouldn't
call
it
a
rogue
survey
as
much
as
I
don't
think
that
people
feel
like
they
have
enough
information.
I
don't
feel
like
they're
getting
enough
education
and
they're
looking
for
more,
but
when
we
are
going
out
there
in
the
community
and
we're
surveying
them
on
a
particular
topic,
there
has
to
be
a
method
by
which
neighborhood
associations,
as
well
as
the
general
community,
can
provide
input
to
council
nla
or
any
other
committee.
G
F
Sure
I
guess
I
guess
my
point
is
that
we
would
want
to
establish
a
way
to
ask
those
questions
to
involve
the
community
to
seek
their
feedback,
but
in
a
way
that
is
balanced
and
seeks
a
a
wide
demographic
of
responses.
And
so
I
see
that
maybe
coming
into
play
under
these
kind
of
vague
verbs
like
evaluate.
Maybe
we
can
give
it
a
little
bit
more
substance
direction.
G
I
totally
appreciate
where
you're
coming
from,
and
I
think
the
na
still
serve
the
best
avenue
by
which
to
reach
members,
and
you
know
I
can't
recall
the
exact
percentage
of
people
that
responded
to
this
particular
survey,
who
were
members
of
nas
versus
non-members
of
nas.
But
it
was
surprising
that
there
were.
It
was
a
pretty
big
response
of
non-n,
a
members
that
responded
to
this.
It
was
57
about
half.
F
F
D
A
A
And
I
would,
I
would
add
that
I
think
in
the
context
of
this
evaluation,
certainly
a
fundamental
part
of
this
is
to
use
the
same
survey.
We
started
with
typically
just
the
way
the
city
does
it.
We
ask
some
of
the
same
questions
to
see
how
we've
tracked
and
then
sometimes
we
entertain
some
new
questions
as
they
evolve.
A
I
think
the
city
does
that,
typically
to
see
if
they
progressed
in
things
like
the
perceptions
of
public
safety,
but
I
think
in
turn,
we'll
we'll
get
into
the
details
of
this
as
we
create
the
work
plan.
For
this
I
understand
the
the
concept
certainly
or
the
concern
about
the
validity
of
a
survey,
and
but
I
suspect
that
what
this
speaks
to
is
that
we
will
evaluate
and
how
that
gets
done,
I
think,
is
going
to
be
concluded
as
part
of
our
work
plan
is
where
I
I
see
that
happening.
A
B
Okay,
just
for
the
purposes
of
today,
because
this
is
a
an
important
larger
conversation:
are
there
any
changes
or
additions
to
this
sense
of
evaluate,
or
does
it
hold
for
now
simply
to
have
this
action
as
evaluate
impact
number
two
and
evaluate
community
knowledge?
Number
three:
does
that
word
still
work,
or
does
it
need
to
be
something
added
to
it?
B
B
B
F
F
H
Yeah
sure,
so
that
is
something
that
the
nla
probably
would
not
have
a
role
in
when
we're
talking
about
the
illegal
fireworks.
Our
role
as
an
advisory
committee
and
a
conduit
between
the
neighborhood
associations
and
the
city
of
bend
is
to
share
information
and
really
push
out
the
education
piece.
If
there
is
something
that
related
to
enforcement,
that
council
discusses,
then
that's
where
we
could
weigh
in.
However,
right
now,
as
it's
written,
I
haven't
seen
that
enforcement
as
a
part
of
that
work
or
that
goal
that
even
council
has.
H
B
B
B
B
B
Okay
and
final
step,
then,
if
that's
sort
of
I'll
go
back
here,
what
will
happen
now?
Is
it
doesn't?
Look
like
there
are
any
substantive
changes
to
this
I'll
go
ahead.
Make
sure
michaela
has
the
final
copy
of
this.
Then
we
will
formally
adopt
it,
as
you
just
you
know,
went
through
everything
at
your
july
13th
meeting
and
then
that
should
conclude
this
this
biennium's
planning
process.
B
Again
it
is
a
plan
you're
able
to
make
changes
as
you
go
along,
but
you've
got
the
work
plan
and
now
the
two-year
biennium
plan,
coinciding
with
council
goals
and
the
input
you've
received
from
neighborhood
association.
So
with
that,
unless
there
is
anything
else
about
this,
I
will
stop
sharing
and
pass
it
back
over
to
hans
jen.
A
Thank
you.
I
guess
it's
good
that
we're
in
such
agreement
speaks
to
our
thought
process.
Before
in
the
work
you
presented
to
us,
I
would
say
that
one
of
the
things
that
I
was
reminded
when
we
saw
succession
planning
we
spoke
about
that
and
it
just
triggered
for
me
just
a
reminder
that
at
least
for
me
lisa
can
speak
for
herself,
but
I
will
not
be
a
candidate
for
chair
in
january.
A
A
I've
been
the
chair
for
three
years,
lisa's
been
the
vice
chair
and
certainly
it's
it's
time
to
think
about
who
will
hold
those
positions
come
january.
So
I
think,
as
part
of
that
succession
planning,
I
would
throw
out
an
open
invite
that
anyone
that
might
be
interested
in
a
leadership
position
when
we
make
those
decisions
at
no
later
than
january.
A
I
would
invite
you
to
join
michaela
and
lisa,
and
I
on
thursdays,
typically
outstanding
meeting
that
we
have
each
week
where
we
discuss
in
la
business
and
in
a
business.
So
I'll
leave
it
at
that.
But
it
was
quite
a
reminder
that
you
know
we'll
be
looking
at
that
in
just
a
few
months
down
the
road
lisa.
A
G
Can
I
absolutely
concur
with
hans?
It
is
not
my
intention
to
serve
going
forward,
I'm
I'm
interested
in
completing
my
term
and
we'll
see
what
happens
here.
This
fall,
but
I've
got
some
other
interests
that
are
kind
of
pulling
my
attention
and
I'd
like
to
remind
everybody.
You
know
it
hasn't
just
been
three
years
but
hans
and
I
were
part
of,
as
was
dave
part
of
the
original
people
to
serve
on
the
steering
committee
prior
to
the
formation
of
the
nla.
G
So
we've
been
doing
this
for
a
little
while-
and
I
think
some
of
us
are
are
realizing.
It
takes
a
lot
of
time.
It
takes
a
lot
of
energy,
so
I
don't
want
to
give
any
false
expectations
here.
You
really
need
to
be
aware
of
what
you're
getting
into
and
it's
a
fabulous
opportunity
to
learn
and
grow,
and
I
sure
hope
that
somebody
is
ready
to
step
up.
B
E
E
I
hate
to
use
the
word
steered,
but
essentially
free
from
the
the
prejudices
and
ideals
that
the
original
group
put
forward,
and
I
don't
know
how
to
do
that.
But
I
would
like
for
some
discussion
to
be
held
around
forming
such
a
group,
because
I
think
it's
necessary
that
we
have
a
succession
plan
that
includes
how
do
we
raise
people
from
the
boards
to
the
nla.
A
I
think
it
will
be,
I
think,
dave
I
hear
where
you're
coming
from
the
fact
that
we
have
a
vision
and
mission
is
a
good
start
for
anyone
going
forward
to
understand
that.
That's
how
we
see
ourselves
until
such
time
as
we
don't
see
ourselves
that
way.
I
think
too,
this
may
play
into
the
online
manual
when
we
say
a
manual.
A
It
may
mean
conceptually
different
things
to
different
people,
but
I
think
we
have
talked
about
at
least
lisa,
and
I
michaela,
and
I
the
three
of
us
have
talked
about
the
ideas
of
creating
things
that
help
guide
and
describe
the
requirements
to
be
a
successful
nla
representative
or
an
la
leader.
So
I
think,
there's
definitely
a
place
as
we
create
this.
A
A
J
A
G
A
G
Hans,
I'm
sorry
before
jen
leaves
us.
I
just
want
to
really
say
thank
you
very
much
to
jed
rusk.
You
did
a
fabulous
job
and
we
so
appreciate
all
of
your
work.
You
and
michaela
really
prepared
us
for
the
the
planning
and
oh
my
gosh,
you
just
made
it
a
very
quick
and
easy
and
painless
process.
So
thank
you.
You're
always
a
pleasure
to
work
with.
Yes,.
B
Thank
you.
This
is
awesome.
This
rarely
happens
as
I
get
thanked
like
this,
so
I
really
appreciate
it
yeah.
It's
been
a
pleasure.
I
appreciate
the
opportunity
to
come
back
and
work
with
you
work
alongside,
and
I
so
feel
so
much
gratitude
for
what
you
guys
are
doing
for
the
entire
community,
so
yeah.
Thank
you.
G
A
C
A
launching
pad
for
those
questions
and
part
of
that
presentation
is
introducing
the
new
bench
sustainability
fund,
which
is
sort
of
the
biggest
change
that
we're
facing
and
before
I
do
that
jen.
That's.
It's
amazing
work
and
awesome
to
see
that
take
place
so
congrats
on
getting
that
approved
and
passed.
It's
it's
fun
to
see
what
the
future
of
the
nla
looks
like.
C
I
am
gonna,
go
ahead
and
do
a
screen
share,
and
can
you
guys
all
see
this
good
okay?
So
this
is
again,
as
I
mentioned
last
week
and
I
did
share
with
michaela
the
full
business
plan,
so
she
may
have
sent
that
along
to
you
and
if
he
hasn't
I'm
wide
open
to
sending
that
later
on,
but
again,
my
plan
here
is
just
to
sort
of
again
high
level
who
visibent
is
event.
Sustainability
funded
some
of
the
key
items,
largely
financial
items
around
this
year's
business
plan,
and
I
think
this
is
great.
C
I
think
last
year,
hans
krekman
wrong
was
the
first
time
this
event
started
this
effort
to
make
sure
that
nla
was
aware
of
what
visit
ben's
doing,
and
I
want
to
make
sure
we
keep
doing
this
so
excited
about
this,
and
and
if
we
don't
answer
all
the
questions
today,
please
know
my
door
is
always
open
to
those
questions
down
the
road
at
a
high
level.
I
always
like
just
starting
with
sort
of
who
visibend
is.
This
is
a
mission
statement
that
we
adopted,
I
believe
in
2017.
C
I
was
in
this
job
for
about
two
years
and
recognized.
We
need
to
to
think
differently
about
what
visit
band
was
for
this
community.
Obviously,
it's
a
slow
process
at
times
to
create
the
change.
We
want.
One
of
the
big
projects
we've
been
working
on
over
the
last
couple
years.
Is
this
been
sustainability
fund?
So
it's
fun
to
be
here,
sharing
that
that
ultimate
project
coming
to
completion
jumping
into
the
ben
sustainability
fund.
C
I'll
show
you
a
timeline
here
in
a
bit
for
how
the
program
will
play
out,
but
the
timeline
to
get
to
this
point
was
recognizing
that
city
code
up
until
literally
a
few
weeks
ago,
really
restricted
visibility's
effort
to
only
being
able
to
do
tourism,
promotion
and
marketing
at
the
state
level
and
at
the
state
law.
They
also
include
a
definition
called
tourism-related
facilities,
and
that
was
missing
from
ben's
city
code
for
a
plethora
of
reasons.
One
of
the
main
ones
was
back
in
2003
when
that
law
was
adopted
and
city
code
adopted
as
well.
C
The
river
house
had
built
a
convention
center,
and
there
was
a
lot
of
lobbying
by
that
group
at
the
time
to
ask
city
council
at
the
time
to
exclude
the
term
tourism-related
facilities
so
that
groups
wouldn't
invest
in
projects.
That
would
be
a
direct
competitor
to
that
convention
center.
So
there's
a
lot
of
history
but
long
story
short.
We
adopted
tourism-related
facilities
into
city
code
with
city
council's
partnership
just
recently
and
that
paved
the
way
for
visit
ben
to
invest
in
facilities.
C
Now,
there's
still
some
definitions
around
that,
such
as
real
or
improved
property
of
10
years
of
useful
life
or
more,
as
well
as
substantial
use
by
visitors.
So
this
doesn't
this
doesn't
get
to
fix
sidewalks
or
roads
or
some
of
those
traditional
issues,
but
it
does
allow
us
to
invest
in
facilities
that
are
being
heavily
used
by
visitors,
which
we
also
know
there's
an
intersection
with
our
visiting
population
and
our
local
population.
C
So
that's
really
it
taking
care
of
the
places
that
take
care
of
us
is
really
the
fundamental
element
of
the
bend
sustainability
fund
and
reinvesting
transient
room
tax
dollars
into
those
projects.
A
couple
things
I
want
to
note
here
is:
there's
no
re-allocation
of
dollars.
The
the
city
is
still
retaining
roughly
70
percent
of
dollars.
Visit
bend
is
still
getting
roughly
30
percent
of
dollars
per
its
contract
and
then
we're
just
taking
that
30
and
adding
this
scope
of
work
to
that.
So
there's
no
shifting
of
money
or
anything
different
in
terms
of
financials.
C
This
gives
you
a
quick
look
at
who's,
making
up
the
advisory
council
from
the
community.
We
wanted
to
put
this
in
place
to
really
make
sure
there's
a
community
perspective
in
terms
of
how
these
projects
will
review
and
in
a
second
I'll,
go
through
the
timeline
of
how
that
will
all
play
out,
but
you'll
notice
that
there
was.
C
So
we
wanted
to
make
sure
we
had
a
good
diversity
of
people
representing
the
group,
making
some
decisions
around
what
projects
to
prioritize,
and
then
we
also
added
the
liaisons
which
were
really
the
land
managers.
The
big
issue
here
was,
as
projects
came
through
this
program,
we
wanted
to
make
sure
the
executability
was
real,
so
somebody
proposed
a
project
and
then
rachel
at
parks
and
rec
said
we
aren't
aware
of
this
project.
There's
no
way
this
project
is
ever
going
to
happen.
C
This
gives
you
a
quick
snapshot
of
how
the
program
will
play
out
so
tomorrow,
correct
june
9th
we
will
have
an
information
session
with
all
potential
applicants
and
really
anybody
from
the
community.
That's
interested,
and
the
point
of
that
meeting
is
really
to
get
in
the
weeds
about
how
the
program
will
play
out.
Application
window
will
then
be
july
1
through
july
30th,
and
then
you
can
see
the
process
of
getting
to
the
end.
C
Once
that
we've
sort
of
cleared
that
hurdle,
the
advisory
council
will
take
a
review
of
those
projects
and
make
that
sure
that
the
community
is
interested
in
these
projects
that
they're,
executable
and
sort
of
weigh
in
on
that
eventually
we'll
create
a
community
ballot
that
will
be
sent
out
to
the
entire
community,
including
groups
like
nla.
Where
that
those
people
can
voice
their
opinion
vote
on
what
projects
they
think
are
most
important.
C
We'll
then
bring
all
that
information
back
and
then,
eventually,
the
visibility
board
of
directors
will
go
to
approve
those
recommendations
at
our
september
board
meeting
and
then
dollars
will
go
out
the
door
in
october
and
I'll
get
to
the
funding.
How
much
funding
there
is
in
this
program
when
we
start
to
talk
about
financials.
C
C
Okay
I'll
keep
flowing,
and
then
we
can
get
through
questions
at
the
end.
This
is
a
quick
look
at
moving
into
business
plans
specifically,
and
I
really
focused
on
just
the
financial
side
of
this.
So
this
is
what's
projected
to
be
collected
by
the
city
of
bend
for
transient
room
tax
between
july
1
and
june
30
of
2020.
C
on
the
right,
you'll
see
how
that
breakdown
is
so.
The
city
of
bend
will
retain
north
of
800
8
million
dollars
between
the
police
and
fire,
and
then
general
fund
contributions
just
to
jog
your
memory,
both
the
police
and
fire
and
the
arts
and
culture
portion
which
is
is
in
the
visibend
squares
or
triangles,
were
both
due
to
a
1.4
increase
back
in
2014
to
transient
room
tax
collections.
C
But
it's
still
great
to
see
that
general
fund
piece
to
be
able
to
tackle
things
like
road
infrastructure
or
police
and
fire
needs.
And
ultimately
that's
really.
One
of
the
reasons
a
group
like
visibend
exists
is
to
generate
those
funds
for
those
for
a
group
like
the
city
of
bend
to
then
reinvest
in
needs.
It
has
you'll
also
see
here
that
the
sustainability
fund
contribution
is
earmarked
as
well.
C
This
is
a
little
deeper
dive
into
our
budget,
so
you
can
see
fy21
versus
fy22,
obviously
fy21.
We
had
no
idea
what
was
going
to
happen
and
we
greatly
underestimated
what
was
actually
going
to
happen,
so
that
was
that
was
a
proposed
budget
and
then
you
can
see
under
the
city
funding
prior
years
there
was
actually
a
significant
amount
of
transient
room
tax
collected
in
fy
21,
but
per
our
contract
with
the
city.
C
C
This
is
a
quick
snapshot
of
just
again
how
that
total
revenue
breaks
down
and
and
the
efforts
that
we're
putting
forward
one
of
the
things
I
want
to
note
in
terms
of
the
pie
chart
on
the
right
is
we
see
this
evolving
over
time.
If
the
bench
sustainability
fund
is
hugely
successful,
we
will
allocate
more
dollars
towards
a
program
like
that.
C
We'll
just
have
to
see
how
things
go
and
see
who's
interested
in
applying
through
that
and
then
have
to
manage
the
marketing
related
activity.
One
of
the
conversations
that
happened
when
we
were
advocating
to
get
the
bent
sustainability
fund
going
and
tourism
related
facilities
adopted
into
city
code.
Was
the
industry
really
saying
coming
out
of
a
pandemic
like
this?
C
We
really
need
to
make
sure
our
marketing
activity
sort
of
stays
at
a
high
water
mark
or
where
it
historically
has
been,
although
it
feels
like
tourism
still
happening
or
at
it,
you
know
still
robust
we're
still
below
historical
levels
and
many
businesses
in
that
space
and
restaurants
are
still
struggling,
there's.
Obviously
numerous
issues
labor
and
other
things
impacting
that
industry
as
well.
C
So
it's
a
very
complex
issue,
but
at
the
end
of
the
day
we
still
feel
a
need
to
really
focus
on
these
marketing
related
activities
to
make
sure
those
businesses
stay
healthy
and
then
also
starting
to
pay
attention
to
labor
issues
as
well.
The
one
other
part
I
point
out
here,
the
reserve
fund.
You
can
see
on
the
left.
C
This
is
a
quick
look
at
our
goals
in
terms
of
economic,
social,
environmental.
One
of
my
big
priorities
is
making
sure
bizarre
bend
is
an
organization
also
looks
at
the
sustainability
lens.
Historically,
as
you
guys
are
well
aware,
and
we've
had
conversations
about,
the
economic
bucket
is
really
all
we
cared
about.
It
was
really
about
more
and
more
and
more.
How
do
we
drive
revenue?
How
do
we
get
more
people
to
come
here
and
we're
trying
to
to
be
more
thoughtful
about
that
approach?
C
Not
only
in
our
marketing
and
making
sure
we
have
better
responsible
recreation
messaging
or
that
our
marketing
is
much
more
thoughtful,
but
we
also
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
being
thoughtful
on
the
social
aspect.
So
things
like
making
sure
25
of
our
models
are
diverse,
is
a
goal
that
we've
we've
already
begun
to
hit,
but
will
remain
a
goal
for
us
or
making
sure
that
we
are
hiring
and
retaining
local
contractors
and
reinvesting
in
this
community.
C
C
G
Thank
you.
I
I
think
I
need
a
little
bit
of
help
here
yeah.
So
if
I'm
looking
at
city
funding,
you're
you're
showing
us
2021,
which
was
the
pandemic
here
and
the
next
year,
what
you're
expecting
and
there's
a
64.3
percent
increase
variance
there
and
then
I
look
at
the
next
line
and
I
see
there's
a
deficit
from
2021.
C
Let
me
yeah,
so
let
me
just
correct.
Let
me
tackle
the
second
one
there
first,
so
what
what
had
happened
was
a
few
years
ago
there
was
an
accounting
error
at
the
city
side
and
they
double
paid
visit
bank.
So
over
the
last
24
months
there
the
city
of
bend
was
retaining.
It
was
8
000
a
month
over
24
months
to
retain
those
dollars.
C
C
So
the
reality
is
is
that
city
funding
in
fy,
22
or
sorry
fy21
should
have
been
closer
to
3
million,
but
going
into
the
pandemic.
We
had
no
idea
how
it
would
play
out,
so
the
city
only
approved
2.1
million
or
two,
I
think,
was
right
at
2
million
in
city
funding,
and
then
we
had
the
10
variance,
which
got
us
to
the
2.2
million,
which
then
kicked
additional
revenue
into
this
new
fiscal
year.
C
We
had,
we
did
a
10
because
of
how
how
aggressive
we
expect
travel
to
return
and
what
we've
been
seeing.
So
again,
these
are
just
forecasting
forward
numbers,
but
that's
what
that's
how
we
arrive
to
that?
It
wasn't.
Just
you
know,
pull
a
number
out
of
a
hat.
It
was
all
based
on
prior
months
contributions
and
then
adding
an
escalator.
G
Okay
and
then
kind
of
going
back
to
the
whole
vision
or
or
goal
of
visit
bend
and
you're
you're
trying
to
push
more
money
into
this
bend
sustainability
fund,
and
it
appears
to
me
that
the
bend
sustainability
fund
is
all
about
creating
new
opportunities,
and
I
guess
I'm
concerned
about
maintenance,
I'm
concerned
about
existing
traffic
to
our
current
trails
and
some
of
the
complaints
that
we
are
fielding
as
neighborhood
associations,
as
well
as
in
general.
Throughout
bend.
G
C
Yeah,
so
we're
working
really
closely
with
all
land
managers,
again
parks
and
rec
forest
service,
blm
and
city
event.
A
couple
couple
comments
on
maintenance.
Specifically,
we
have
heard
that
loud
and
clear
and
and
sadly
because
of
against
state
law,
which
I
wish
we
could
just
create
a
pool
of
money
and
say:
let's
do
whatever
the
community
needs.
That's
just
not
that's
not
what
the
law
allows
us
to
do,
but
what
we've?
C
What
we've
been
discussing
is
that
as
new
pools
of
resources
come
about,
it
upsets
the
apple
cart
in
terms
of
how
other
grant
programs
operate
and
an
example
to
that
would
be.
If
parks
and
rec
knows
that,
there's
this
resource
or
pool
of
funding
to
do
a
specific
thing
can
they
reallocate
other
funding
that
doesn't
have
the
same
shackles
to
do
something
else?
The
other
thing
we've
talked
about
is
these
aren't
always
new
projects,
and
I
think
a
good
example
of
that
would
be.
We've
all
been
to
tumalo
falls.
C
We've
all
seen
how
people
interact
with
tumelo
falls,
and
it
is,
it
is
not
the
appropriate
way
to
engage
with
tumblr
falls.
So
if
you
sort
of
kept
the
gate
closed
and
again,
this
is
just
an
idea:
nobody's
going
to
do
this
tomorrow
and
built
real
parking
around
the
skyline
or
trailhead
and
actually
had
the
resources
and
then
shuttle
people
into
something
like
that.
C
C
C
They
already
have
a
giant
piece
of
concrete
that
goes
largely
unused
and
if
we
can
push
more
tourists
to
mount
bachelor
for
their
outdoor
experience
and
get
them
to
leave
some
of
our
wilderness
areas
alone,
I
think
that's
a
long-term
win
for
the
sustainability
of
those
natural
resources
and
so
we're
just
trying
to
be
creative
and
and
what
those
solutions
are
so
we're
trying
and
I
think
we're
going
to
learn
a
lot
about
once.
We
launch
this
program
where
the
feelings
are.
G
E
E
G
C
Okay,
yeah
and
I
think
your
question
about
the
nla.
I
there
have
been
neighborhood
associations
who
have
emailed
about
various
projects
or
various
concerns
that
we've
we've
already
worked
with.
I
think
you
know
we
got
a
little
behind,
but
I
reached
out
to
hans
two
months
ago,
or
so
to
say:
hey
like,
should
we
have
this
conversation,
so
I
mean,
I
think
that
from
my
perspective,
I'm
trying
to
do
my
part
to
keep
everybody
engaged
and
make
sure
that
everybody's
aware
of
what
we're
doing.
C
But
I
don't
know
that
a
neighborhood
association,
I
could
probably
think
of
some.
So
if
the
neighborhood
association
is
also
wrapped
around
something
like
the
whitewater
park
area,
which
is
one
of
the
conversation
we've
had,
that
would
be
an
area
where
those
projects
could
unfold
and
and
something
like
this
program
could
all
help
offset
an
expense
for
the
entirety
of
a
program
to
help
manage
what
happens
between
drake
park
and
the
white
water
park.
For
example,.
G
Yeah,
I
don't
think
that
it's
limited
just
to
the
whitewater
park,
but
I
think
that
we
have
to
look
at
the
impacts
to
tourism
industry
throughout
city
of
bend,
and
even
I
understand,
for
example,
shevlin
is
right
on
the
outskirts
of
the
city
limits,
but
there's
a
huge
impact
to
to
shevlin
park
as
a
result
of
tourism.
So
and
respectfully.
I
do
think
that
the
neighborhood
associations
would
appreciate
the
opportunity
to
be
involved
on
some
level
and
whether
that
is
to
participate
as
a
stakeholder
or
participate
in
certain
certain
projects.
G
D
C
Yeah
a
different
topic,
but
absolutely
wide
open
to
that.
I
think
you'll
remember
we
did
not.
You
know
we
did
not
come
out
in
an
opposition
of
the
250-foot
rule.
I
understand
now
you
know.
Five
years
later
it
has
displaced
where
people
are
buying
vacation
rentals
into
neighborhoods.
That
historically
did
not
see
them.
So
I
think
there
were
some
unintended
consequences
of
that
policy
from
that
time,
but
we've
also
seen
a
tapering
off
of
how
many
new
vacation
rentals
have
come
in
in
terms
of
permits
at
the
city
level.
C
So
maybe
that
was
the
intended
consequence
and
that's
been
okay,
but
I
think
a
big
part
of
our
marketing
has
been
talking
about
how
to
interact
with
this
community
and
sort
of
bring
your
best
self.
If
you're
going
to
come,
visit
and
you're
going
to
come
enjoy
your
time
and
then
there
are
some
expectations
of
the
community
and
how
you
interact
with
it.
But
the
reality
is
we
don't
touch
everybody
we
do.
C
G
Thank
you,
thank
you
and
cassie.
I
don't
mean
to
interrupt.
Do
you
have
more
I'm
done
so.
You
brought
up
an
excellent
point
and
one
that
I'm
very
curious
about.
When
we
look
at
revenue.
Are
we
able
to
break
out
the
revenue
that's
generated
by
short-term
rentals,
as
opposed
to
hotels
and
motels?
Is
there
more
more
detail
that
we
can
drill
down
to.
C
Yeah,
so
we
visit
ben-
and
I
I
can
share
this
with
hans
or
whatever
the
appropriate
line
but
visit,
and
you
can
actually
go
on
visitband.com
and
look
up
all
our
board
meeting
minutes.
So
they're
all
there
from
every
public
board
meeting
and
they
are
all
it
breaks
out
by
hotel
it
breaks
out
by
vacation
rental.
It
breaks
out
by
airbnb
payment.
It
breaks
out
by
trailer
park
or
rv.
So
all
of
it
is
there.
C
It
has
been
really
interesting,
especially
through
the
pandemic,
to
see
the
rate
in
which
vacation
rentals
make
up
the
total
piece
of
the
pie.
So
for
the
month
of
march
as
an
example,
there
was
roughly
950
000
collected
by
the
city
of
bend
over
300
000
of
that
came
from
airbnb
alone,
so
about
a
third
of
that
total
came
from
airbnb
you'll
see
the
same
thing.
When
you
look
at
the
county,
the
county
is
200
percent
up
in
some
months
of
transient
room
tax.
C
The
biggest
reason
is
sun.
River
alone
has
2200
vacation
rentals,
the
city
of
bend
has
850.,
so
they
have
three
times
more
vacation
rentals
than
the
city
of
bend
has
in
the
town
of
sun
river
alone,
and
their
transient
room
tax
has
been
driven
through
the
roof,
because
people
are
escaping
the
pandemic
to
places
like
sun
river
for
week-long
multi-generational
getaways.
C
G
That's
an
amazing
statistic.
Thank
you
very
much
for
pointing
that
out.
I
think
you
you
may
be
aware
that
many
of
our
neighborhood
associations
are
really
struggling
with
short-term
rentals
and
we're
struggling
with
the
impact
to
those
neighborhoods,
whether
it
is
party
houses
or
whether
it
is
parking
issues
or
various
other
ways
that
people
are
disrespecting
the
the
area
of
around
that
short-term
rental.
G
G
You
know,
there's
there's
a
lot
of
a
lot
of
energy,
that's
going
into
evaluating
short-term
rentals
and
we
think
the
city,
many
people
think
the
city
has
gone
too
far
in
allowing
so
many
short-term
rentals.
So
thank
you
for
those
statistics
that
was
really
really
eye-opening
yeah.
I
do
have
one
more
question
and
that
one
question
is
around
parking
and
around
available
parking
in
downtown
and
throughout
the
neighborhoods
does
visit,
bend,
have
any
kind
of
position
or
any
kind
of
statistics
or
feedback
on
how
parking
matters
in
the
city
of
bend.
Does
it
matter.
C
Yeah
and
I
think
well
a
couple
thoughts-
I
mean
parking
downtown.
Somebody
works
downtown.
The
amount
of
space
in
the
parking
garage
and
on
the
streets
immediate
to
downtown
is
is
expansive
right
now
you
just
have
to
be
a
block
from
actual
bond
or
wall,
but
the
parking
garage
since
they
instituted
pay
parking
is
you
know
there
is
plenty
of
spots
in
that
parking
garage
on
a
daily
basis.
C
They
are
not
accustomed
to
the
parking
regulations
that
happen
in
the
neighborhood
adjacent
to
drake
park,
and
recently
there
was
a
significant
amount
of
citations
given
out
on
the
first
warm
weekend
that
was
communicated
to
us
by
anna
rand
at
the
communications
of
the
city,
and
then
we
immediately
as
well
as
julia
ben
parks
and
rec
implemented
that
into
the
float,
the
river
blog,
which
has
stopped
becoming
a
go,
float
the
riverblog
and
has
become
a
if
you're
going
to
go,
float
the
river
blog.
You
need
to
know
how
to
do
it
right.
C
So
some
of
that
talked
about
educating
on
proper
cart,
pooling
techniques
it
talked
about.
If
you
are
going
to
carpool,
do
not
leave
a
a
car
down
at
drake
park,
you
will
be
site,
you
know,
citations
will
come
so
we're
doing
everything
we
can
to
communicate.
When
an
issue
arises,
how
do
we
communicate
the
interests
of
the
city
or
parks
and
rec
how
to
rectify
it?
But
I
think
that
one
caught
people
off
guard,
because
that
was
a
new
change
this
year
and
we
hope
we
can
stem
it
quickly.
C
You
know
things
like
the
park
and
ride
shuttle
being
offline,
which
I
believe
is
coming
back
this
summer,
should
help
that
to
some
extent,
but
again
that's
a
great
example
where
a
recess
was
built
and
I
don't
think
any
of
us
had
any
idea
how
many
people
would
use
it.
We
recently
did
some
polling
around
that
and
it's
roughly
68
our
locals
and
32
percent
are
visitors,
and
so
it's
a
significant
amount
of
just
the
visiting
or
the
sorry
the
local
population
who's
down
there
using
that
space
as
well.
A
L
Sorry,
I
I
was
trying
to
remember
what
I
was
going
to
say.
I
I
think
it
was
about
the
sustainability
fund
and
the
reason
why
council
is
so
excited
about
this
is
that
you
know
the
things
that
are
going
to
be
improved
or
added
as
a
result
of
the
sustainability
fund
are
not
just
things
that
tourists
are
going
to
benefit
tourists,
but
are
going
to
are
going
to
benefit
the
people
that
live
in
vent.
L
You
know
the
things
that
that
tourists
like
to
do
are
the
things
that
we
like
to
do,
and
so
that's
why
this
is
such
an
amazing
opportunity
for
our
city
and
we're
really
looking
forward
to
it,
and
I'm
been
really
really
impressed
by
the
I.
I
can't
remember
what
they're
called
kennedy
advisory
board
that
you've
put
together.
I
think
it
it.
It
really
represents
not
only
people
that
have
sort
of
have
it
like
a
stake
in
this
in
bend.
L
A
A
M
M
You
know,
put
your
five
dollars
in
the
box
and
park
here
for
four
hours
or
something
it
would
work,
and
I
I
think
the
neighborhood
would
be
happy
they.
You
know
the
the
tourists
get
confused
with
big
events
for
the
residents
and
the
big
events
with
the
residents
cause
more
of
the
parking
problem
than
tourists
that
we
experience
in
the
neighborhood
and
the
second
question
just
happens.
C
We
can
actually
move
the
needle
on
because
they're
so
business-centric
whether
a
business
is
willing
to
pay
a
living
wage
or
not
or
how
unemployment
benefits
impact
things.
I
mean
it's
just
very
dynamic.
So
that's
that's
where
I
feel
like.
I
don't
want
to
stay
here
and
say
that
we're
tackling
all
elements
of
sustainability.
C
C
G
H
Sure,
yeah,
and
just
as
a
quick
entry
that
there
was
five
documents
that
were
linked
in
your
agendas.
All
of
those
are
new
resources
coming
out
of
the
land
use
working
group
as
part
of
our
land
use
education
plan.
So
here
is
the
video
just
in
case
you
didn't
get
a
chance
to
watch
it
and
also
because
it's
kind
of
fun
to
watch.
Let
me
know
if
you
can't
hear
the
audio.
Sometimes
that
happens.
K
K
To
live
in
the
oregon
land
use
planning
program
was
created
in
1973
when
the
legislative
assembly
passed,
the
oregon
land
use
act,
senate
bill
100
in
response
to
oregon's
rapid
population
growth.
Under
this
program,
all
cities
and
counties
throughout
oregon
have
adopted
comprehensive
plans
that
meet
19
statewide
planning
goals
that
deal
with
land
use,
development,
housing,
transportation
and
conservation
of
natural
resources
of
these
19
goals.
The
first
goal
serves
as
the
foundation
of
oregon
land
use
goal.
1
calls
for
community
members
to
be
involved
in
all
phases
of
land
use
planning.
K
Developing
the
city
of
ben's
comprehensive
plan
requires
extensive
public
input.
Division
outlined
in
ben's
comprehensive
plan
guides,
land
use,
applications
within
city
limits,
some
individual
land
use
applications
also
require
a
public
process.
There
are
several
ways
for
bendits
to
get
involved
in
the
planning
of
ben's
land
use,
be
informed.
Neighborhood
associations
play
a
role
in
informing
community
members
of
projects
happening
within
their
boundaries.
Contact
your
neighborhood
association
to
stay
informed
and
learn
about
opportunities
to
participate
in
land
use
applications
attend
a
community
meeting.
K
Developing
ben's
comprehensive
plan
and
other
planning
documents
involves
community
input,
attend
a
community
meeting
to
learn
more
provide
input
and
help
shape
ben's
future.
Some
private
development
project
applications
might
require
a
neighborhood
meeting
or
public
hearing.
You
may
see
these
advertised
as
neighborhood
public
meetings,
open
houses
or
information
sessions.
This
is
where
you
can
learn
about
the
details
of
a
project
and
offer
your
input
directly
to
the
project
teams
participate
in
the
public
hearing
process.
A
public
hearing
process
is
a
common
way
through
which
the
community
can
provide
recorded
public
input
on
a
proposal.
K
Public
hearings
are
conducted
with
the
planning,
commission
and
then
city
council.
The
planning
commission
serves,
as
the
city's
committee,
to
involve
the
community
in
land
use
planning.
The
planning
commission
works
with
stakeholders
or
groups
of
people
who
have
interest
in
land
use
topics,
citizen
committees
and
community
groups
to
advise
the
city
council
on
land
use
decisions
before
the
council
considers
the
proposal.
There
are
opportunities
to
provide
input
through
the
hearing
process,
both
in
writing
and
speaking
at
a
hearing.
K
G
All
right
that
was
exciting.
Wasn't
it,
I
think,
that's
a
big
improvement
over
the
prior
101
video
and
I
think
it's
going
to
be
useful.
I
really
like
how
this
video
points
out
goal
number
one
citizens
need
to
be
involved
in
all
aspects.
I
I
think
that's
really
critical.
It
delivers
a
powerful
message
to
the
community
that
they
can't
just
wait
until
the
project's
being
built
next
door
that
they
need
to
get
involved
earlier
sooner,
such
as
around
the
comprehensive
plan
or
anytime.
There
are
proposed
changes
to
the
bend
development
code.
E
A
G
G
Thank
you
very
much.
Thank
you
very
much
everybody
I
just
want
to
acknowledge
the
land
use
working
group.
All
of
the
members
have
been
working
extraordinarily
hard
on
all
of
these
documents
and
we
are
nearing
the
completion
of
the
review
of
of
the
documents
and
I
believe
we're
going
to
have
website
updates
sometime,
maybe
this
week
or
early
next
week,
and
so
we'll
start
rolling
this
out
to
the
community
here
soon.
G
H
No
just
to
let
you
all
know
the
land
use
web
page,
that's
going
to
be
on
the
city's
website
is
going
to
be
queued
up
by
the
end
of
the
month
to
at
least
have
an
intro
to
what
the
program
is
about.
Have
that
video
posted
and
then
be
the
resource
that
we
can
direct
people
to,
as
we
continue
to
add
these
new
resources.
H
G
So
dave
part
of
the
vision
is
that
these
documents
are
going
to
live
on
the
city
website,
where
they
concern
the
community
focused
documents
and
you
you
might
remember
that
we
have
three
different
focus
areas.
We
had
developers,
land
use,
chairs
and
the
community,
so
the
land
use
chairs
still
have
access
to
their
documents
out
on
bendna
forums.org,
and
there
are
some
great
resources
for
the
land
use
chairs
on
that
website
and,
and
that
is
run
by
the
independently
by
the
13
neighborhood
associations.
G
And
then
the
developer
information
is
already
on
the
city
website.
The
city
has
done
a
decent
job
of
sending
it
out
to
developers
posting
it
reminding
people
that
it's
there.
I
am
seeing.
Land
use,
chairs,
use
those
documents
and
reference
the
links
to
those
documents,
very
often
with
neighborhood
meetings
and
we'll
just
continue
going
in
that
direction.
And
then
what
michaela
is
bringing
up
is
the
new
community
focused
page,
and
my
hope
is
that
the
nas
will
link
directly
to
that
page.
So
the
nas
are
not
having
to
redo
all
of
the
information.
G
G
I'm
sorry
you're
concerned
about
how
that
relates
to
your
land
use
chair,
so
you're
going
to
have
community
documents
and
you're
going
to
have
land
use,
chair
documents
and
the
community
is
going
to
have
information
available
to
them
on
the
city
website.
Land
use
chair
has
their
own
documents
available
to
them.
On
the
ben
n,
a
forum
site.
D
H
G
A
A
We
felt
that
that
the
descriptions
there
might
allow
someone
to
perceive
that
we
are
implying
conflict
of
interest
or
some
other
aspects
that
really
have
no
bearing
and
no
place.
The
point
that
really
needs
to
be
made
is
that
the
15
person
stakeholder
group
isn't
the
same
as
a
public
outreach
and
engagement
process,
but
we
discussed
for
the
committee's
consideration
striking
some
language
in
that
part
of
the
description
of
the
stakeholder
group
and
the
other
part
that
is
open
for
discussion,
and
I
think
morgan.
You
raised
this
as
an
issue
earlier.
A
The
the
mention
of
the
survey
was
included,
understanding
that
actually
the
city
only
does.
I
think
one
statistically
valid
survey
about
every
two
years,
but
but
more
importantly,
this
survey
that
was
referenced
was
not
an
nla
origin
survey
but
at
the
same
time
it
was
included
because
the
dramatic
numbers
of
responses
were
so
great
compared
to
any
survey.
We
have
done
any
other
time,
so
I
think
there's
two
parts
to
this.
One
part
is:
do
we
include
this
survey?
A
G
Sure
I'll
take
a
stab
at
that,
so
the
does
parking
matter.
Survey
was
created
out
of
a
result
of
some
of
the
discussions
around
the
code.
Changes
for
hb
2001
and
if
we
look
at
you
know,
hb
2001
is
pretty
far-reaching.
This
is
a
really
big
deal.
If
people
haven't
been
paying
attention
to
it
boy,
it's
really
going
to
impact
your
neighborhoods
and
impact
our
community
pretty
significantly.
G
If
you
will
in
some
of
our
community
groups
and
some
of
our
neighborhoods,
because
if
we
eliminate
parking
entirely,
what
does
that
mean
for
our
businesses,
as
well
as
the
residents
of
those
neighborhoods?
So
the
neighborhood
association
group
members
created
this
survey
and
they
just
asked
some
general
questions
and
then
they
pushed
it
out
on
social
media
and
we
had
a
pretty
incredible
response.
G
It
wasn't
necessarily
I
I
do
think
that
some
neighborhood
associations
pushed
this
out
individually
by
the
neighborhood
association.
But
I
think
overwhelmingly
the
response
came
through
social
media
and
it
asks
questions.
You
know
what
should
happen.
Should
we
eliminate
parking
entirely
and
does
that
actually
drive
affordable
housing?
Does
the
does
the
idea
that
we
eliminate
the
need
for
a
garage
or
carport
or
space
for
parking?
Does
that
actually
create
affordable
housing
and
unfortunately,
we
still
don't
have
enough
data
there?
We
don't
have
enough.
A
A
Another
aspect
of
this
is
that
we
hadn't
discussed
before
we
have
as
a
committee.
We
voted
to
send
a
letter
to
counsel
and
planning,
and
this
is
the
letter
we
have
to
consider.
I
think,
after
thinking
about
this,
some
more
it
wouldn't
be
an
inappropriate
in
this
letter
to
include
some
specific
asks.
A
If
you
will
examples
of
the
sorts
of
things
that
we
are
concerned
about
things
like
and
when
I
say
we,
the
nla
stakeholder
group,
you
know
that's
why
we
have
liaisons
to
the
planning
commission
the
things
like
lot
sizes
set
back
parking
height.
I
think
there
are
five
topics.
I
think
it
would
be
appropriate
to
have
the
stakeholder
representatives
lisa
and
dave
include
that
in
this
letter
those
are
matters
of
record
from
before
the
five
topics
that
we
are
concerned
about
collectively
and
then
I
think
too
lisa
touched
on
affordability.
A
I
think
a
reasonable
ask
would
be
to
ask
council
to
direct
staff
to
work
on
something
that
helps
us
understand
how
the
implementation
of
2001
results
in
council's
affordability
goals.
I
think
that's
the
public
needs
to
see
to
understand
if
they're
going
to
have
input
through
an
outreach
and
engagement
process.
I
think
the
public
needs
to
see
how
this
implementation,
perhaps
with
these
current
considered
model
codes,
might
create
and
achieve
those
affordability
goals.
I
think
the
public
will
probably
would
respond
well
to
that
sort
of
explanation.
A
A
E
E
10
of
the
15
stakeholders
were
builders,
architects,
designers,
five
were
citizens.
Two
of
them
were
nla
members.
Every
time
that
anything
came
up
for
a
vote,
the
team
overwhelmingly
voted
against
the
five.
That
is
my
particular
concern.
As
a
member
of
the
stakeholders
group
that
was
not
representative
of
the
city.
E
A
I
I
hear
you,
but
before
I
asked
councillor
perkins
to
respond
to
that,
because
I
saw
her
hand
up,
I
do
want
to
make
it
clear.
We
are
not
here
to
question
the
stakeholder
group
that
the
message
of
this
letter
is
to
merely
say
we
would
like
planning
and
counsel
to
perform
public
outreach,
get
more
public
involvement.
That's
that's
the
message
of
this
letter.
It's
not
to
castigate
or
criticize
the
the
stakeholder
group.
That's
not
what
this
letter
is
about,
but
I
will
turn
it
over
to
council
perkins.
E
L
M
F
A
Thank
you.
Thank
you
for
that.
Yeah
and
again,
the
focus
of
the
letter
is
to
to
work
towards
public
engagement.
It's
not
about
the
stakeholder
group
per
se
and
that's
why
we
suggested
striking
the
language
that
made
the
stakeholder
group
seem
more
of
a
focus.
That's
not
the
focus
of
this
letter.
Lisa.
I
see
your
hand
up.
G
G
I
just
want
to
remind
everyone,
you
know,
as
as
we
have
become
more
knowledgeable
through
this
process.
What
we
are
recognizing
is
that
the
the
the
process
here
in
bend
it
it
basically
was
fast-tracked
and
we
didn't,
engage
the
public
beyond
anything.
At
this
point
other
than
the
stakeholder
group,
we
can
look
forward
to
public
hearings
through
the
planning,
commission
and
public
hearings
at
the
city
council,
and
I
think
that
all
of
us
here
have
been
around
enough
that
we
know
it's
a
little
intimidating.
First
of
all,
to
speak
during
those
sessions.
G
If
we
take
a
look
back
at
what
other
communities
are
doing,
I'm
staring
at
a
page
that
shows
me
the
eugene
community
engagement
meetings
and
I
promise
you
folks.
There
are
over
30
meetings.
There
are
well
over
30
meetings
that
they
have
held
on
this
very
topic
and
they
have
yet
to
move
code
through
their
process.
G
Okay,
I
I
just
want
to
bring
that
up.
We
are
about
to
present
code
on
june
14th
and
we
are
so
much
further
along
in
presenting
code
without
there
having
been
public
engagement,
and
that
was
the
goal
of
this
letter
slow
down
and
let's
get
more
public
involvement.
Let's
do
more
public
education,
let's
get
some
open
houses
going,
let's,
let's
educate
the
neighborhood
associations
and
the
reason
we
wanted
to
do
that
is
because
of
our
original
charter.
As
the
nla,
we
want
to
improve
trust
between
the
neighborhoods
and
the
city.
G
F
I'm
all
kinds
of
fired
up
about
this,
so
I
I
apologize
in
advance
for
that,
but
whether
or
not
the
stakeholders
are
mentioned
in
this
letter
feels
pretty
irrelevant
to
me
the
survey
being
mentioned.
I
really
don't
want
to
nitpick
about
that
here,
but
I
do
think
we
need
to
address
that
in
future
working
groups
in
terms
of
how
we
encourage
our
nas
to
collect
information.
F
You
know,
1200
people
is
a
huge
response,
but
it's
a
biased
response
and
the
questions
were
poorly
written
and
even
looking
around
on
the
the
website
of
does
parking
matter.
The
way
things
are
colored
or
phrased
are
just
already
attempting
to
get
a
certain
response
from
the
public.
In
terms
of
the
way
that
information
is
presented.
My.
N
F
F
So
I
want
to
point
out
that
even
even
parts
of
this
letter
that
say
these
changes
do
nothing
to
provide
affordable
housing.
We
don't
believe
there
is
a
reason
to
fast-track
this
process,
go
against
even
what
the
city
of
eugene
has
put
out
to
their
residents.
In
terms
of
saying
this
helps
this
helps
people
find
a
place
to
live.
This
is
going
to
impact
our
neighborhoods
in
a
positive
way.
F
I
just,
I
think,
it's
irresponsible
of
us
to
fast-track
or
to
to
ask
the
city
planning
commission
to
slow
down
in
the
midst
of
a
true
crisis.
If
you
make
15
dollars
working
in
bend
full
time
40
hours
a
week,
and
then
you
spend
30
of
your
income
for
the
year
on
rentals,
you
can
find
you're
supposed
to
only
spend
780
a
month.
F
If
any
of
you
can
go
on
craigslist
right
now
and
find
me
any
apartment
of
any
size
for
780
a
month,
we
can.
We
can
certainly
tell
the
commission
to
slow
down.
Then
you
can
look
at
working
working,
a
full-time
job
and
a
half-time
job.
That
only
gets
you
to
1200
a
month.
If
you
can
find
me
any
apartment
of
any
size,
that's
actually
available
in
this
town
for
1200
a
month
and
that's
for
one
person,
maybe
maybe
that's
a
working
parent.
F
It's
not
doable
and
I
think
as
the
nla,
if,
if
our
goal
is
to
truly
help
everyone
who
lives
in
bend
to
thrive
here,
we
can
totally
have
the
conversation
about
this
process.
I
don't
want
this
issue
to
be
the
turf
that
we,
we
argue
this
this
process
over.
It's
it's
too
important.
Frankly,
there's
there's
aspects
of
of
hp
2001.
That
public
comment
is
irrelevant
to
because
it
is
state
law.
This
is
happening.
The
ways
in
which
it's
going
to
happen.
F
D
D
I
believe
that
there's
some
good
information
there,
so
it
might
be
how
we
phrase
it
as
opposed
to
saying
that
we
support
it,
and
so
I'm
talking
about
the
process-
and
you
know
it
gets
down
to
goals
and
objectives.
It's
again,
I
think
morgan
mentions
in
our
strategic
plan,
it's
educating
and
communicating
the
importance
and
roles
of
the
neighborhood
leadership
alliance
and
neighborhood
associations
to
community
members,
because
there
is
a
perspective
that
we
are
nimbies
and
that
might
not
necessarily
be
true
and
so
we're
creating
a
perception
here.
D
It's
very
important
that
this
letter
reflects
our
position
and
also
the
position
of
our
boards.
So
my
question
is:
is
who
are
we
representing?
Because
our
board
doesn't
necessarily
support
the
language
in
this
letter?
For
that
reason
they
don't
feel
like
it's
neutral
enough,
and
I
think
that's,
but
we
do.
We
do
agree
with
the
importance
of
educating
and
informing
our
membership
and
there's
no
question
that
we
all
need
to
do.
You
know
a
better
job
of
getting
that
information
out
to
a
residence
and
that's
probably
where
I'll
just
leave
it
for
now.
A
O
Oh,
I
thanks
sans
you
you're
over
selling
this
dramatically,
but
some
some
perspective
might
be
useful
for
the
group
as
it
continues
to
discuss
this,
and
you
know
house
bill
2001,
as
you
all
know,
was
passed
in
2019,
but
some
recent
historical
context
regarding
the
city's
efforts,
I
think,
might
be
useful
and
you
know
if
you
go
back
six
or
seven
years.
I
think
2014,
I
think,
was
when
the
city
passed
or
at
least
started
working
on
its
cottage
housing
code,
and
that
was
just
about
a
year
before
my
time.
A
O
I
I
say
that,
because
there's
a
lot
of
attention
on
especially
recently
on
house
bill
2001
and
what
you
know
this
council
is
doing
or
thinking
about
either
2001
or
parking
important
topics,
but
I
think
it's
important
to
realize
that
several,
the
immediate,
the
several
immediate
prior
councils,
if
that
makes
sense,
have
been
strongly
aligned
with
what
this
current
council
is
doing,
if
not
unanimously,
so
on
increasing
housing
supply
and
diversity
of
housing
in
the
city
of
bend.
So
this
is
that's
a
long
way
of
saying
well
house
bill.
O
2001
was
passed
by
the
legislature
in
2019
this
kind
of
effort,
the
kind
of
policy
goals
that
are
embodied
in
2001
are
not
new
to
bend,
and
several
previous
councils
have
been
doing
that
work
for
the
last
five
six,
I'm
going
to
say
even
seven
years.
So
yes,
there
is
work
that
is
really
coming
to
kind
of
an
inflection
point
for
bend
and
other
cities
around
oregon
in
terms
of
meeting
the
timelines
that
the
legislature
established
in
hb
2001.
O
Now
that
could
change
right,
I
mean
council,
can
council
can
make
its
own
decisions,
but
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
this
group
knows
that
this
is
not
something
that
has
changed
recently.
It's
it's
kind
of
a
progressive
culmination
and
by
progressive
I
don't
mean
in
a
political
sense.
I
mean
a
gradual
sense
of
doing
this
work
to
get
to
where
we
are
now
over
the
last
six
or
seven
years.
O
Well,
that's
prob,
that's
probably
my
fault,
but
I
guess
another
way
to
say
it
is
you
know
I
know
people
are
maybe
some
people
fairly
recently
sort
of
processing
what
kind
of
changes
house
bill
2001
may
bring
to
bend
and
bend
neighborhoods,
but
the
city
of
bend
at
council
direction
for
six
or
seven
years
has
been
working
on
making
those
changes,
even
even
before
2001
was
passed.
So
this
this
policy
effort
that
will
result
in
increased
density
and
more
housing
options
is
not
a
new
thing.
So
I
think
that's
my
point.
Dave.
E
G
I'm
sorry
dave
with
all
with
all
due
respect,
anne.
I
I
appreciate
what
you're
saying-
and
I
appreciate
that
this
is
not
a
new
topic.
Affordable
housing
is
something
that
all
of
us
are
wanting.
All
of
us
are
pushing
for
it,
but
what
we
want
is
responsible,
managed
growth
and
we
want
to
make
sure
that
the
housing
is
going
to
be
there
for
people,
because
what
we're
doing
right
now
isn't
working.
G
We
just
had
a
significant
increase
in
the
median
price
of
homes
here,
just
in
the
last
couple
of
months,
it
went
up
by
was
it
more
than
a
hundred
thousand,
I
believe,
come
on
now.
So
where
is
this
housing
actually
going
to
go?
And
where
is
the
affordability
going
to
come
from?
I
know
that
this
has
been
a
council
topic
and,
with
all
due
respect,
having
grown
up,
I
I
graduated
high
school
in
south
lake
tahoe.
J
I
just
wanted
to
communicate
to
you
that
the
to
the
group
that
the
orchard
district
had
a
board
meeting
yesterday
and
we
discussed
this
topic-
we
are
in
complete
alignment
with
what
morgan
from
larkspur
strict,
I
had
to
say
about
it.
We
will
not
be
participating
or
signing
the
letter
as
it's
drafted
now,
and
I
also
appreciate
cassie
from
riverwest's
comments
as
well.
So
I
wanted
to
say
that
also
I
wanted
to
let
you
know
that
city
club
is
putting
on
a
forum
about
this
topic.
J
I'm
not
sure
if
you
guys
have
heard
that.
Hopefully
you
have
and
if
you
haven't
hop
on
and
check
it
out,
because
it
clearly
includes
folks
that
are
on
both
sides
of
the
issue
and
I'm
really
stoked
to
hear
what
they
have
to
say
and
and
and
what
kind
of
progress
we
can
make
and
hopefully
bringing
people
together
to
move
this
forward.
A
Okay,
thank
you
summer,
like
I
would
say,
I
totally
get
what
ian
was
saying,
and
I
recall
that
the
previous
council
I've
only
been
involved.
This
is
only
my
second
council,
so
I'm
a
newbie,
but
the
previous
council
also
was
working
on
this.
If
I
recall
the
number
was
3
000
new
doors,
if
you
will
to
be
created
and
we
kept
track
of
that
diligently
throughout
the
biennium.
A
So
I
I
get
that
this
has
been
a
focus
for
a
long
time,
and
I
also
know
that
the
nla
was
really
created
to
help
represent
residents
concerns
with
for
lack
of
a
better
term
livability,
which
means
different
things
to
different
people.
I
think
everyone
accepts,
and
our
biannual
survey
supports,
that
people
understand
that
growth
here
is
inevitable.
A
They
would
just
like
a
say
in
the
growth.
So
I
think
I
think
this.
This
is
kind
of
a
case
study
in
how
we
get
the
community
involved.
I
also
I'm
going
to
I'm
going
to
take.
My
position
is
there
for
me:
there's
no
proof
that
accelerating
implementation
of
this
is
going
to
make
affordable
housing.
I
don't
think
that's
a
true
statement.
I
think
there's
good
intent.
I
think
it's
a
hope
that
it
will
result
in
affordable
housing.
A
Historically,
we
had
a
broad
brush
understanding.
We
update
the
comprehensive
plan,
we're
growing
every
time
we
update
it,
we're
growing
faster
than
we
were
at
the
time
before
I
get
that.
I
think
this
animal
hb
2001
is
a
little
bit
different,
but
that's
my
perspective.
So
we
are
here
to
decide
if
we're
going,
to
put
this
letter
to
planning
and
to
counsel
or
not,
and
I
think
we're
going
to
head
your
hand
up
and
then
we
need
to
decide
to
make
a
decision
here.

So,
hey
everyone!
This
is
michaela
first
time,
I'm
speaking
up,
I
I
think
that
I
I'm
not
seeing
a
clear
consensus
either
way
we
are
participating
in
the
june
14th
planning,
commission,
hearing
or
sorry
work
session
at
that
time
is
an
opportunity
for
the
nla
to
be
alongside
the
other
committees.
Learning
about
the
code.
H
Changes
that
are
moving
through
the
hearing,
as
I
understand
it
with
planning
commission
will
be-
is
tentatively
scheduled
for
july
26th,
which
means
we
still
have
a
meeting
between
now
and
then
to
collect
comments
and
input
on
this
letter
and
maybe
the
direction
that
we
should
go.
Maybe
we
can
get
into
a
place
at
our
next
meeting
where
we
agree
on
moving
forward,
so
just
wanted
to
put
that
out
there
for
consideration.
A
A
P
D
A
A
A
To
that
point,
I
would
say
I
in
as
much
as
our
time
is
about
up.
We
haven't
heard
from
reports.
I
think
our
decision
is
made
for
now.
What
I
would
say
is
I
would
encourage
every
one
of
you
to
work
through
this
with
your
boards
direct
your
input
to
michaela
as
the
focus
of
this,
and
we
will
try
to
incorporate
as
much
as
we
can
so
that
we
can
include
this
in
next
month's
agenda
and
come
to
whatever
closure.
We
do.
N
Thank
you,
hi
everyone.
I
know
this
is
a
a
challenging
conversation
for
you
and
at
this
point
I
would
just
encourage
everyone
to
set
aside
those.
I
think
it's
two
hours
next
monday
night
and
really
watch
the
work
session
carefully,
because
I
think
that
is
going
to
help
each
and
every
one
of
you
understand
more
about
what
exactly
is
in
this
house
bill,
what
the
sideboards
are
for
the
city
of
bend.
N
N
I
just
think
that
each
and
every
one
of
us
and
I'll
be
there
right
with
you-
need
to
just
spend
a
little
bit
more
time
in
understanding
this,
so
that
we
can
so
that
you,
in
your
roles
too,
can
bring
it
back
more
completely
and
accurately
in
an
informed
way
to
you,
your
neighborhood
association.
So,
thank
you,
sorry,
I'm
gonna!
I
had
a
whole
lot
of
projects
to
do
so.
I
got
to
listen
to
you
and
do
some
other
work
and
I'm
gonna
hop
off
now
and
go
do
some
other
projects.
A
You
mayor
russell,
thank
you.
Okay,
we
have
had
a
great
discussion
and
we
also
have
used
up
all
of
our
time
and
at
the
expense
of
spending
more
time,
I'm
going
to
suggest
that
we
pass
on
reports.
If
there's
anything.
That
is
particularly
important
that
your
na
wanted
to
share
with
this
group,
please
forward
it
to
michaela,
and
she
can
be
sure
to
disseminate
anything
that
you
wanted
this
group
to
hear
in
your
reports
piece
and
we'll
leave
it
at
that.
Any
closing
questions.
