When homes are listed on the National Register of Historic Places, it usually means there will be an intended purpose to keep the structure alive whether it’s through historic restoration, repurposing, or general maintenance. Sometimes, too, these places get demolished.

Many Floridians enjoy all-you-can-eat buffets as they offer plenty of food variety for one fixed price. Unfortunately, one popular option in this niche - Plant City Homestyle Buffet - was closed for three days after a state inspection. Unfortunately, this isn't its first closure.

The Office of the Independent Monitor, or OIM and the Citizens Oversight Board or COB have released their annual reports on the state of policing in Denver. According to the OIM report, the most common violations recorded by the Denver Police Department in 2023 were “duty to obey departmental rules and mayoral executive orders” and “discourtesy.” Duty to obey departmental rules and mayoral executive orders is a specification that covers a wide range of possible violations, including, but not limited to, unconstitutional search and seizure, improper handling of evidence and personal property, and violations of the DPD’s body-worn camera policy. “Discourtesy is a specification used when officers are alleged to have violated a rule requiring them to be ‘orderly, attentive, respectful, and exercise patience and discretion in the performance of their duties.’”

Aurora, CO

The Aurora City Council forged ahead Monday on a new “tough love” approach to homelessness that sentences urban campers to addiction and mental health treatment. The council decided at its study session to advance to a regular meeting an ordinance creating a new court for homeless campers. Ordinance sponsor Steve Sundberg said the court is not meant to be punitive. Offenders who successfully complete a year’s probation and their treatment plan would have the violation removed from their record, he said.
