• Hundreds of Kansans lost their apartment due to landlord neglect. One change in law could help (linncountyjournal.com) — Hundreds of Aspen Place tenants in Gardner were forced out when the city condemned the complex over unsafe water, sewage, and infrastructure problems, leaving many homeless for months. Now a local state senator and other Kansas lawmakers are pushing legal changes to hold landlords more accountable and give renters stronger protections, which could affect how future housing issues are handled in Gardner and across the state.
