Human waste behind ‘every slightly private bush’ in Golden Triangle, resident says
A resident of Denver’s Golden Triangle told the City Council Monday there is human waste behind “every slightly private bush” in her neighborhood. Janice Schuh also expressed her displeasure of reports a methadone clinic is planned for Broadway and that “a harm reduction establishment having to relocate will consider joining them.” She pleaded with the council to impose a Good Neighbor Agreement on the organizations. “The Golden Triangle has a lot of drug users as it is,” Schuh said. “I have seen many people getting high on Broadway. They turn their bodies to the walls and proceed to take their drugs. I pick up trash most Saturdays in the Golden Triangle area and I’ve found syringes, many, many scraps of foil, indicating drug use, and of course plenty of other trash.

The board has long been plagued by infighting, personality differences, and accusations , and applicants sought to prove they are willing to work with their colleagues to avoid future drama. The overarching theme of the evening was the need to rebuild trust. “Nobody sitting up here applied for this job thinking it was going to be easy, or that they were going to get along with everybody, or that there were going to be a lot of flowers,” said Scott Esserman, a former board member who lost a re-election bid and applied to fill the vacancy. The vacancy was created by the resignation of DJ Torres , who was elected last November to represent central-east Denver’s District 3. Torres left the board last month after repeatedly clashing with President Xóchitl Gaytán, who accused him of several policy violations
