When Moab City purchased a trailer park with the intention of building long-term affordable housing, they knew it was going to be difficult. Converting the trailers on Walnut Lane into an 80-unit housing complex without displacing current residents is a major challenge. And so is developing consensus on what that development should look and feel like. In the spirit of community involvement, city leaders want input on the architectural style and amenities for the future Walnut Lane Apartments. Plus, face masks are now a requirement in national parks, not only within park buildings but also on trails when physical distancing is difficult. And, our partners at KVNF speak with a representative from the Center for Western Priorities, who confronts the current ‘chicken little’ rhetoric from the oil and gas industry.
