Hotels Continued from P1 Water damage required the project be stripped back to its frame. The hotel will open next year sometime. A second hotel in Red- mond, a Holiday Inn Express, is awaiting financing, which has been difficult to obtain with COVID-19 related clo- sures and restrictions, Patel said. That property, which is next to the Hampton Inn off U.S. Highway 97, will have 100 rooms. “With the brands we’re in- vesting in, we feel long term will be good,” Patel said. “The feasibility studies seem strong and that we’ll perform pretty well long term. “Travel is bottlenecked. We feel pretty confident for 2022. These are the markets that people are thinking for out- door vacations. COVID-19 is increasing travel to outdoor places like this.” Construction has begun on the parking lot improvements “We’re looking at a combination of leisure and business travelers at these properties. The growth of Redmond has been exceptional.” — Chico Patel, Wealth Hospitality president at the Pine Ridge Inn in Bend. Sometime in 2024 construc- tion will begin on 36 luxury condos, Patel said. Starting next year, Patel hopes to begin construction on a 115-room Hyatt property in the same area that will include retail space. Most likely in 2024, Pa- tel’s firm will begin construc- tion on a Marriott property in the same area. Wealth Hospitality has built about 70 hotels from the ground up, said Patel. Right now there are about 36 projects underway. e Reporter: 541-633-2117, sroig@bendbulletin.com Curtis Salgado: The vocalist, songwriter and harmonica icon will perform; 8 p.m.; $25 plus fees; The belfry, 302 e. main ave., Sisters; bendticket.com or 541-815-9122.

If just 10,000 residents each committed to spending $100 locally — instead of shopping online, that would mean $1 million injected into the local economy, which would help local business owners weather the current economic storms. Studies show that each dollar spent locally turns over 4 times … $1 million turns into $4 million as it works its way through the hands of local residents. OUR CHALLENGE TO YOU Spend an extra $100 locally this holiday season, instead of spending it online. HOW TO PARTICIPATE: 1. Head to one of the local banks listed below, and ask them to convert your $100 into $2 bills. 2. Use your $2 bills to show local businesses you care. 3. Email us at 2dollarchallenge@bendbulletin.com to let us know how you spent your $100 worth of $2 bills, and get entered into a drawing to win a $100 gift certifi cate to the local business of your choice!
