So. The 'Green-Line Initiative' isnt going down well in Ogden-town. They dont want it.

The City sends out a liaison every few weeks to canvas the neighbourhood and inform the residents of whats going on.

Now. I work in Ogden, but I dont live there. And I'm one of her last stops of the day and she looks like she's been dragged through a fighting pit.

So...I give her some water and rest and I don't harass her because she's had a hard day. Its like a refuge. She can play some Star Wars Arcade and just escape.

My office is a 'Safe Space.'

But make no mistake. The residents of Ogden do not want this.

I'm somewhat ambivalent. If you'd asked me 5 years ago I'd have been 100% in support. But with the advent of Work-from-Home and thus less need to get downtown, and the amount of scum and villainy that perpetuates with Train stations? I can understand the reticence of the residents.

Furthermore, no plans for parking is a questionable decision and...Ogden road is largely 1-Lane in either direction. It is not equipped for the kind of traffic they're going to dump on it.
