On this week’s Fresnolandia podcast, Jordan and Dani tackle two issues that have put Clovis in the news: A new 1% sales tax for public safety that the Clovis City Council just voted to put on the November ballot, and a lawsuit filed by two public health nonprofits against Community Health Systems, alleging that $1 billion in public dollars intended for lower-income patients at the downtown Community Regional Medical Center was siphoned away to Clovis Community Hospital for higher-income patients.

We also talked about some of the recent headlines of the week and what we’re loving this week, including a discussion about Camp Fresno.
