[OMS_MANAGERS] Real estate/flyer boxes on the street

[Manvel, Evan]

Lots of communities go to a joint kiosk/box to reduce clutter.

Not sure if there are any laws preventing that in Oregon, but Fort Collins is a good example. I bet the Fort Collins DBA would help talk about them

Jersey City adopted maintenance standards, etc.

Presume there are examples in Oregon, too!

Subject: [OMS_MANAGERS] Real estate/flyer boxes on the street

Greetings,

Here in Downtown Bend, we have a problem with boxes on the street for distributing materials.  Currently, anyone can put a stand/box out (for free), and it's creating an eyesore on our streets.

I am requesting that the City of Bend create a code or policy to limit the number of units and specify how they can look and how they need to be maintained.

Do any of you have experience with a similar issue and can you share with me how you solved it?

Thank you.
