The Denver City Council awarded The Salvation Army another $8 million contract Monday to run the Tamarac Family Shelter for people experiencing homelessness. Council members Shontel Lewis and Flor Alvidrez voted against the contract. Lewis said while the Salvation Army has made some “long overdue” promises, nothing in the contract holds them accountable to data-driven metrics. “We can’t just throw money around to solve a problem.” She added the city needs to “bake into every contract” data expectations that will be used to hold the agency accountable. She said outcomes ought to be evaluated by using “accurate, easy to understand information.”

The best way to downsize is to declutter and organize first. Do not bring your clutter with you. It seems counterproductive when people bring all their stuff to their new place with the idea of sorting through it all after they get settled in their new home which is probably a smaller home since you are downsizing.

Migrant homeless encampment dwellers who have been swept from location to location by city crews finally won a reprieve Wednesday. On Wednesday, the city offered the encampment dwellers seven days of shelter instead of three, which was the original offer turned down by the campers. “It would hardly be a worthwhile respite before they would find themselves back on the streets with no support, scattered,” Housekeys Action Network Denver, or HAND, posted on Instagram.

Georgia voters kicked out incumbents, picked replacements for departing legislators and set the stage for June runoffs as well as the big show in November. Ballot casters up and down the Peach State made choices Tuesday that are already set to reshape the state Legislature, which could have an even greater effect on the average Georgian than who sits in the White House this time next year.

Growing cucumbers is one of my favorite things to do in the summer. They are easy to grow and everyone in my family loves to eat them. When it comes to gardening and preserving, few delights are as universally cherished as the cucumber. This versatile vegetable offers the freshest crunch in salads and the tangiest bite in pickles. It's no wonder cucumbers have earned their place as a staple in home gardens, thanks to their versatility and ease of growth.
