Senior housing project draws objections from neighborhood

This is a solid example of special interest control over what is done in Lawrence.
Many of the comments regarding the poor condition of apratments are spot on.
Why are they in poor condition? Because multi-unit housing was purposely exempt from the rental housing regulations in Lawrence.( Via Compton, Stultz, Fritzel,etc.)
Throw a dart at the map in 10 years and we will find that there will be a run down apartment complex within a mile radius.
If the county wants to support a senior housing project. How about buying a entire block of the empty rental houses that the tenants have moved out of and into the apt units.
Our sweet community is turning sour right before our eyes..

DUI fatalities drop sharply in wake of recent law

I was one of the first people involved with this technology back in the 80's and there were many holes to the program. ( Which I won't mention in detail in case they are still possible)
But the technology when used as a tool to provide DUI offenders a mode of transportation for work, counseling and other basic daily requirements.
It is not the answer to the problem of drinking and driving. DUI offenders need to be randomly tested and attend counseling through out their sentence.
