“These Town Halls are a great way for us to hear directly from the community,” said Sheriff Rupert. “Your feedback helps us address concerns and improve how we deliver public safety to the citizens of Deschutes County.”
At the January Town Hall in Terrebonne, residents raised concerns about increased traffic and speeding on Davidson Way due to Highway 97 construction. In response, deputies increased patrols in the area. Citizens have already reported a noticeable improvement, with drivers slowing down and safer conditions near school bus stops.
These Town Halls are part of Sheriff Rupert’s ongoing effort to strengthen trust and ensure that community concerns guide local law enforcement priorities.
