Do you wonder what that nasty smell that has been cropping up all over Denver is?. I know. Denver has lots of nasty smells, including urine and feces in the alleys. There also is the unmistakable chemical smell of meth that turns some people’s stomachs. And of course, marijuana lingers in the air Denver-wide.

Two much anticipated safe outdoor parking spaces for people experiencing homelessness in Denver won’t be opening after all. A contract with Colorado Safe Parking Initiative will become final at Tuesday’s Mayor-City Council meeting. The new contract removes the requirement for the initiative to add two more lots serving a total of 16 vehicles. That leaves just two lots that the initiative already operates. The city will pay $350,000 for the initiative to operate the lots.

It's not unusual for old Florida buildings like Kmart and Golden Coral to be demolished to be repurposed for other things. And now, a Florida Burger King has been torn down for a somewhat surprising downsizing reason.

Victory church pastor Rodney Locklear has been indicted. The Richmond Times Dispatch reports that a Virginia church has closed its doors, but not for the same reasons other congregations in the Commonwealth have been shuttered. It was not a declining or aging congregation or financial matters. Victory church has ceased to exist because the pastor has been accused of s$x crimes against a minor and now faces six additional charges.

“We have no idea where we are going, when we are going or if we will have housing or need to return to the buses [at the landing zone]”. [ORIGINAL STORY] Migrants in the Standard Club shelter on S. Plymouth are living hour to hour as the information they are giving changes. Children are told to keep their toys in their bags and to take only one out to play with, something easy to pack quickly if needed. They are all on edge as the city decides what to do with their group, having received information and instructions that seems to be ever-changing and to provide no details about what’s to happen to them.
