Skeptical the USDA hazing works, saying the USDA rep admitted it might not and calling it a waste of $13,000; wants the city to focus on garbage cleanup instead.

Downtown resident who has never seen a serious crow problem in two years and enjoys the birds; suggests cheap reflective deterrents and spending the $13,000 on cleanup instead.

Calls the winter crow roost special and urges coexistence over displacement; questions why the city has never studied alternatives since hazing began in the late 1990s.
