The Gazette compares Wisconsin rules to Cedar Rapids with Villa Avery proposing a new facility for troubled men. Appleton officials describe a 1978 law restricting group home numbers and distances, setting 2500 feet between facilities and a one percent ward cap, while Cedar Rapids would require eight or more blocks between homes.
