The unhoused in San Diego’s East County have a new option: a new overnight “safe parking” site with additional services. It's one of the area’s first solutions to the growing problem of homelessness.

County supervisor Joel Anderson attended the grand opening of the safe parking lot, which marks the first county-operated emergency shelter in the unincorporated region of San Diego.

The Safe Parking lot is open nightly from 5:30 p.m. through 7 a.m., but it’s not a walk up site. Participants are referred by the county’s homeless outreach workers.

Poll shows support in Utah County for the Utah Lake Restoration ProjectA recent poll conducted by G1 Research of Sandy found that Utah County residents largely support the Utah Lake Restoration Project. Sad to hear the majority of people are falling for the greenwashing of this environmentally destructive, recklessly exploitive project. So far the project has been promoted like a “Redevelopment Agency”. In reality there are positives, but the negatives are dismissed and the impacts minimized. I think a good, even handed discussion is merited before a poll on support can be considered valid. ULRP’s a developer. Make them dolla bills yo, screw the world.
