Want to weigh in on the
vacation rental debate without joining a committee or showing up to a City Council meeting? You're in luck. The City of Bend has set up a forum on Bend Voice soliciting input to take back to the
Vacation Home Rental Task Force, a committee comprised of stakeholders on all sides of the issue, which will identify concerns and work toward solutions (subject to approval by City Council, of course).
According to a City release, about 50 people applied for the task force and the Bend Planning Commission made a recommendation for 23 finalists. City Council will vote on task force members at its next regular meeting, Nov. 19.
