Issue: May 03, 2018
Morning, readers!
We've talked an awful lot about guns lately, and don't think that means we're stopping anytime soon. This week we bring you some solutions to the problem that actually have a pretty good chance of working and doing some good.
In other news: Meet the candidates vying for Rep. Doug LaMalfa's seat in June; the Chico City Council moves forward with selling a piece of city property to the Jesus Center, despite some reservations; community members get together to discuss crisis response teams and other mental health services; plus, we check out the Donkey Derby at Gold Nugget Days. Yeehaw!
There's more, for sure.
Read on,
