No matter where you are in the country, whenever you pass a Chick-fil-A restaurant, there’s almost always a drive-through line curving out into the road. Sure, this isn’t great for traffic (or for traffic planners that have to deal with it), but for lovers of the chicken sandwiches for sale, whenever a new Chick-fil-A pops up, it’s always good news. And for locals in Flagstaff (or for those traveling through), a new location is preparing itself to be ready for hungry customers sooner rather than later.

Several people experiencing homelessness and those who support them told the City Council Monday that encampment sweeps in harsh weather must stop. They spoke in support of an ordinance that would disallow sweeps when the temperature dips below 32 degrees. “I have been out there and have watched,” said Richard Creswell during public comment period. “No one can find their gloves.” He said encampment sweepers shake the tents of the unhoused early in the morning, telling them to pack up and get out. He said sometimes crews will use a Bobcat poised to bulldoze a tent to get people to move faster. “They say if you don’t do this, we’re going to throw away your tent.” Creswell said campers often grab the frozen tent poles with their bare hands, which feel like they’re burning. “It’s really cruel.”

Biologist Ben Wise received the first feedground reports of lethargic elk calves on Feb. 25. He had a hunch about what was coming. As the Wyoming Game and Fish Department’s disease biologist for the Jackson Region, Wise has been around long enough to know what was likely about to happen . Hoof rot. And death.

I’m sure people wonder why anyone would want to live in a street encampment. It’s filthy, noisy, drug-ridden, and dangerous. Right?. It’s not always that way. I lived in an encampment directly across the street from the Salvation Army Crossroads homeless shelter. I was banned from the shelter for 30 days for smoking my medical cannabis outside, which I did not know was forbidden. That didn’t seem possible based on alll the other people who did it and never got into trouble. When I got thrown out of Crossroads, I went outside and never went back inside. That is, until the police arrested me, and I ended up at Colorado Mental Health Institute at Pueblo, and then later, Fusion Studios, where I live now.
