The first ordinance will make sleeping in public places like sidewalks, streets, doorways, pedestrian and vehicular entrances punishable by a $15 fine, and bans camping under bridges, in parks, and on benches, sidewalks and streets.

September is National Suicide Prevention Month, and the last few years — the last six months in particular — have been tough on my Bondurant community with the tragic losses of three Bondurant-Farrar students and alumni who died by suicide. A freshman boy two years ago. A recent grad last May. And as I was working on this article, a 12-year-old girl in seventh grade. Sadly, Bondurant isn’t unique, as other Des Moines-area schools have also grappled with similar losses.

Bernie Scolaro is a retired school counselor, a past president of the Sioux City Education Association, and former Sioux City school board member. It’s a cloudy day as I sit outside. I am intently reading To Kill a Mockingbird, which I quickly put down as our new neighbor walks by and waves to me. He’s wearing a red MAGA hat with a red, white and blue t-shirt. I would say it is for Memorial Day, but the attire is a common theme in the neighborhood.
