Butte Co Grand Jury Report on Chico's Alt Camp Site
A Butte County Grand Jury report released last week called conditions at the city's alternate site on Eaton and Cohasset "appalling," adding that the city is responsible for the situation there due to neglect.
The report outlined a number of recommendations for how the city could improve conditions, including closing and cleaning the site by the end of August, offering maintenance supervision to keep up with health and safety, and providing clearly marked spaces for tents. The city, which recently announced plans to pursue the closure of the alternate site at the end of the year, has been given 90 days to respond
