Learn more about a homelessness proposal that would lift a ban on overnight parking on Delaware Avenue in Santa Cruz. Santa Cruz City Council is set to consider the proposal at its next meeting on Feb. 26. Also, we discuss the discord we saw among council members at the last meeting and how it can get in the way of good governance. Lastly, we share more details about city spending on bus passes for anyone who works downtown. Some say it will help alleviate downtown traffic. Others say it’s irresponsible spending.

We’ve posted the homelessness proposal, as well as the city report on the bus pass program, below.

We’ve also posted a transcript of this episode, at the bottom.
