Wow, this is a developer's dream post: MORE development, MORE people, MORE money for developers, MORE money for Deschutes County tax base. It is truly a viscious and self-serving circle that will be detrimental to our community, while also filling the pockets of local good old boy/powers that be.
When will County building and planning officials recognize that INFILL ONLY must be the norm, NOT something like the Stevens Road Tract that wants to build homes for 2400 people, outside of the UBG, which means outside of services and infrastructure. And where will the water come from to serve all these new houses? It's ludicrous.
When will common sense and thoughts for future generations come into play, rather than the short-term grow, grow, grow mindset of our current "leaders"?

In the November 2022 election, Oregonians passed — by a 68%-32% margin — Measure 113, which mandates that legislators accumulating 10 or more unexcused absences be barred from re-election. This now would apply to 10 senators who walked out of the current session. Republicans plan to challenge the intention and implementation of M113 in court.
