CITY City to pay $60k in attorney fees over homeless lockers lawsuit

By Samantha Ye @samxye4

After being sued last year, the City of Fort Collins has reached a settlement with the Fort Collins Mennonite Fellowship about the “overly burdensome conditions” the City placed on its homeless lockers program. Under the settlement, the City will pay $60,000 to the plainti
’s attorney for fees and costs. The City will also replace the original four program operating restrictions with 10 new ones, which were nego- tiated out between the parties. City Council approved the fi rst reading of this proposed lawsuit settlement Tuesday night. “I think they have the right to have them,” said Mayor Wade Trox- ell about the Mennonite Church’s lockers. “(And) I would hope that they continue to evaluate their im- pact and think about the system of services within our community and think about engaging within that system.” The FCMF has been advocating since 2017 to have a locker program in place that would be accessible 24 hours a day, seven days a week for The homeless lockers are located outside Fort Collins Mennonite Fellowship on East Oak Street.

FIRST STEPS Those first steps on a trail, you begin to open up your stride Photo: Emily Writebol and breathe deeply, tand finally feel alive. Trail running is a great way to keep you in shape and keep your mind at ease. I had the opportunity to speak with Emily Writebol about her love for running and her passion for that slap happy high. Emily grew up in Parker, Colorado and as an ambitious kid joined the girl scouts and played the piano, but when she joined her local track Club, the Parker Panthers, everything changed. Running had become her focus. After experiencing the rush of competing and the high of running she became obsessed. During high school Emily was team captain of her track team and competed in cross country. After graduating she went on to run competitively at Concordia University for two years. Emily then transferred to Colorado State University and now enjoys leisurely runs up at the local trails at Horsetooth reservoir. By TriggSkoe By I asked Emily why she enjoyed running and how pushing her body’s limits can be appealing and this is what she said… “Running might not be fun in the moment, but that feeling of fullness and relief after is well worth the work”. Emily and I both encourage you to give running a shot as we have experienced its benefits of body and mind. We hope to see you out there on the trails! Remember to watch for snakes and lions!

MEET THE EDITORS MEET THE EDITORS Amy Noble, Design Editor Anna Stewart,

By Amy Noble @amynoble98 Night Editor Amy Noble is a third-year student majoring in graphic design with a double minor in business administration and real estate. She will be the de- sign editor at The Collegian for the 2019-20 school year, and she hopes to continue in the field of publication design in the future. Amy is originally from En- gland and moved to the U.S. to begin her college journey, and she couldn’t be happier with her choices to attend Colorado State University. Her passion for design has only strength- ened from the opportunities she has gained here. However, her creative work had a lot of success back in England too, like winning a city-wide com- petition to have her work show- cased in a permanent display in the Harrogate Civic Center, leaving her footprint in her home town. She was also in- volved in the creation of multi- ple school magazines and print- ed posters, which ultimately led her to this position at The Collegian. Through her experience, skills and ever-growing enthu- siasm about publication design, Amy is delighted to serve as de- sign editor this year and can’t wait to show you what she has in mind for The Collegian.
