a little megathread for this seems useful. what’s on your ballot folks? are you going out to vote today or have you already voted? if you haven’t or are interested in what significant elections are taking place today, Bolts Magazine has its yearly cheat sheet.
Ugh, I looked into it more, and it just gets worse. The director of CARES is also the director of Discover. He got a killer deal from the city on some property from the city, kicked the houseless folks out, and built a tiny dog park. I love animals and always thought CARES was a good organization. Turns out it is run by a exploitative jerk that puts pets recreation before people. Sorry, that is probably enough to pinpoint the city, but I’m pretty upset by that.
yep they’re all in bed together and so shady! have you been by the “dog park”? what a joke. also did you hear the city manager is claiming he didn’t see the email warning them they need to use the 1 mil in homeless funding or lose it? he had responded to it the same day. they have no intention of actually helping the unhoused, clearly.
I haven’t been in in, but I am around there at least once a week. What a joke of a “park.” I had not heard that about the city manager, but that doesn’t surprise me sadly. Only like 2 of the people in any kind of city leadership actually want to help people.
