Keep Santa Cruz Weird? Residents say they're over it

KSBW Monterey
Outrage and concern over a controversial drug needle exchange program shifted from Santa Cruz City Hall to the County Board of Supervisors chamber this week. During a public comment session Tuesday morning, dozens of residents took issue with allowing volunteers to park a van on county property on Emeline Street. Addicts, many who are homeless, can go to the van three days a week for free needles and the county is in charge with overseeing the needle operation.
