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.

Denver Mayor Mike Johnston was clear Saturday when someone asked during a House1000 town hall meeting what will happen to those who say no to free housing. He said taking 1,000 people off the streets with accepting an offer of free housing “allows us to focus much more rigorously on the enforcement of those who don’t (want the housing).” He said those in the grips of addiction will be offered “outpatient treatment and if not, we will get you inpatient treatment.” Johnston made his remarks during a town hall meeting at Evans School in Golden Triangle. The forum answered questions from neighbors of proposed micro community sites at 1199 N. Bannock and 1375 N. Elati.
