Happy Hump Day, everyone. Here’s what you’ll find in this week’s Seven Days:
- Burlington code enforcement director Bill Ward runs a tight ship, holding landlords’ feet to the fire to keep the city’s housing stock up to snuff. And check out the sidebar to see tips for renters.
- Studies have shown racial bias in Vermont traffic stops. A police academy class is teaching new cops to overcome their internalized prejudices.
- Public water is public water, right? Not in Essex or Shelburne — these towns are keeping nonresidents away from their beaches.
- No more dodgeball targets! Vermont gym teachers are reforming physical education to make it better for body and mind — for everybody.
- And in Fair Game: Vermont’s congressional delegation is split on whether to cut off aid to Egypt amidst turmoil. Plus, Lt. Gov. Phil Scott’s worries over the health care exchange, and media news from the Times Argus and Burlington Free Press.
