This is horrible policy for my community. I know the Gov sometimes seems to see it as #BTV vs the rest of the state, but this basically reads as “keep surging, suckers!” And disproportionately impacts BIPOC students, I’m guessing. https://t.co/CYtPTKw24l

The duplex on the corner of willow and St. Louis continually(for years now) has been discarding cigarette butts on the green belt and sidewalk. If the City of Burlington could provide them with a cigarette receptacle this would benefit public health. I'm fine with a cigarette butt here and there but this accumulation of cigarette butts on the green belt is disturbing.

Random Burlingtonian Quote of the Day 📝
In the late eighteenth and the greater part of the nineteenth centuries appeared the first marked cultural shift in the attitude taken toward change. Under the names of indefinite perfectibility, progress, and evolution, the movement of things in the universe itself and of the universe as a whole began to take on a beneficent instead of hateful aspect.
—John Dewey
