Tension over toilets (you read correctly) is playing out in a beloved hiking spot not far from L.A. Owners of historic cabins in Big Santa Anita Canyon lament that bathrooms in the highly-trafficked area have gone away in recent years. It turns out about half the facilities vanished in less than a decade, according to information provided to me by the U.S. Forest Service. Public land managers are often left with the complicated task of providing access with limited budget and staffing. But given the droves of people who come through the canyon, some believe the current level of services is untenable. If the agency doesn't step up, cabin owners say, they'll literally have to clean up the mess. Read more about this s***storm in my latest for the LA Times:

The Supreme Court ruled Friday that cities in California and the West may enforce laws restricting homeless encampments on sidewalks and other public property. In a 6-3 decision, the justices disagreed with the the 9th Circuit Court in San Francisco and ruled it is not “cruel and unusual” punishment for city officials to forbid homeless people from sleeping on the streets or in parks. “Homelessness is complex,” wrote Justice Neil M. Gorsuch for the court. “Its causes are many. So may be the public policy responses required to address it. At bottom, the question this case presents is whether the 8th Amendment grants federal judges primary responsibility for assessing those causes and devising those responses. It does not.” He was joined by the other conservative justices, while the three liberal justices dissented. https://lnkd.in/g6234YE8

In the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic, Michael Flood, the longtime director of the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank, used his deep connections to serve the growing number of people who needed food. And while the intense early days of the pandemic are now in the past, Flood said the demand for food remains high. Currently, he and his team — in coordination with a network of more than 600 partner agencies — feed about 900,000 people every month. Read more about Flood in L.A.
