Wildfire evacuation routes in Southeast Bend
Summary
A Southeast Bend resident warned that dense new development — like a project expected to generate 4,000 daily vehicle trips at 15th and Wilson — could choke evacuation routes in a wildfire. She asked the city to fund and plan evacuation routes, saying county, state, and city staff have nothing substantial underway.
