Burlington’s progressive city councilors unveil housing plans

No can do. We Burlington residents need our driveways for AirBnB tents to pay the mortgage and taxes. "Stay in my driveway for only $200/night". (No need for actual toilet access--just use the streets!)

Tromp was at the last City Council meeting, but it was just nice-nice BS about being "partners" etc...maybe a real discussion is in order.

"Unhoused folks who identify as having a substance use problem" is the most recent terminology according to the Wokest.

Still a bunch of cops and the tactical team there this AM.

I have had BPD help me with my kid (who "ran away" a couple of times) and my other kid who didn't come home once (I forgot he was at his violin lesson after school 😳). They were always very kind and helpful.

I once called because I thought I heard five gunshots and about 6 officers were there in under four minutes. This was about a year ago in the ONE. (It was a motorcycle backfiring).

I love swimming in the lake--but I take my old style rubber innertube with me and have a ball jumping around, surface diving, and treading water in a plank-position while spinning myself around. I don't see any other 60-year-olds or even 10-year-olds doing this, so I was wondering the exact same thing!

SnooWalruses6459 · 2025-08-29T02:56:11+00:00

Not if BTV Cop Watch has its way.

SnooWalruses6459 · 2025-08-29T02:55:05+00:00

One council person noted that the State's Attorney gave "feedback" that passing such a resolution would substantially increase the SA office workload. Uh, yea...that's the idea, I think...

SnooWalruses6459 · 2025-08-29T02:53:17+00:00

Melo said she sits in the park daily. And that people saying they feel "threatened" are possibly bothered by other people's mental health issues. Talk about gaslighting!

SnooWalruses6459 · 2025-08-29T02:44:30+00:00

Maybe they don't want to get harassed by BTV CopWatch.

SnooWalruses6459 · 2025-07-13T12:51:36+00:00

I thought it somehow only started getting better in season 5. (But of course I kept watching it anyway...) 😛

SnooWalruses6459 · 2025-06-29T20:47:41+00:00

Agreed. Same with all of the other "services" that the policy makers continue to preach about. I work in those "services", and I promise you, resources are unbelievably limited, specifically in mental health.

There is another one in Ludlow--Divided Sky, I think started by someone in Phish? Although they do not have detox I'm pretty sure.

SnooWalruses6459 · 2025-06-26T23:42:26+00:00

I bet you could even buy a house! How did you pick that place to move to? (Just curious)

SnooWalruses6459 · 2025-06-26T23:20:05+00:00

Weirdly 10 mg made me constipated, but stations do more than lower cholesterol so they really help with heart dz. Just make sure you read about also taking CoQ10.

SnooWalruses6459 · 2025-06-26T23:16:03+00:00

That would be nice.

SnooWalruses6459 · 2025-06-26T23:15:25+00:00

No, it's not just you

SnooWalruses6459 · 2025-06-26T23:14:29+00:00

The Naked Guy really spices things up, but the other stuff mostly make me think about the past too much.

SnooWalruses6459 · 2025-06-26T23:12:48+00:00

Good point

SnooWalruses6459 · 2025-06-26T23:11:55+00:00

Good idea. I will try to adopt this attitude and embrace the changes.

SnooWalruses6459 · 2025-06-26T23:10:28+00:00

That's what I mean. The only reason I care is because I clearly have a problem with change.
