We discuss what this "strength in numbers" move means for the local taproom scene and regional distribution. Bend’s Natural Gas Installation Fee: Following a 5-1 vote, the City of Bend is moving forward with a new fee on natural gas appliances for new builds. We break down the "social cost of carbon" math and why one councilor stood alone in opposition. STR Rule Changes: The city is tightening the belt on Short Term Rentals in Commercial Neighborhood zones. We look at the new concentration limits and what it means for property owners. A New Era for a Classic Spot: Rosemary and Fox is set to replace the iconic Jackalope Grill.
