    I'm absolutely horrified by this. Carolyn Eagan has proved herself to be nowhere near capable of the position she holds. "Business Advocate" ??? She has time and time again proved to be working on a different agenda from that. My experience with her is that she is someone's lap dog and does the bare minimum to appease any small business. She's looking to move UP in the political world of Bend Oregon and has no intentions of helping SMALL business. It's a disgrace to the community to let these people run rampant with their own agendas as public servants. Eric King is also behind and supportive of this sort of war on small business that doesn't fit the mold. Bend, you have the power in numbers to remove these jokers. Call your City Councilors! Call Eric King! Call Carol Eagan! Let them know how you feel about this atrocious back handed act of deceit and propaganda. Shame them publicly!

    This is another perfect example of how unfriendly the City of Bend actually is to small businesses. They pat themselves on the back all day long in public eye about their commitment to small business. Then use underhanded, back door methods to drive the entrepreneurs out of business. It's systematic and devious and there's a lot more going on than any of us know. Who is bought and sold? This business, it's owner and the employees have been a reputable establishment since conception. They have done nothing but positive for the community. This is yet another bad move by the "powers that be". I hope people care enough to stand and fight for this business.They truly deserve the support and would be sorely missed in an ever homogenizing downtown.
