Behavioral health campus plan trims crisis center size
The eight-bed crisis center is scaled to half the previously planned 40,000 square foot facility. The $200,000 ER unit remains, while the larger unit’s $16 million price was abandoned. Funds shift from LMH costs to other campus parts as housing tiers arise including a transitional home and a 10-unit long-term complex. Justice Matters and Kansas Appleseed urged separate bond referendums.

Police found the victim’s wallet and a black pump-action tool resembling a shotgun at the home where Baker and Ballard stayed, per the affidavit. Ballard reportedly traded Chili’s gift cards for meth. Her trial began Monday and the DA says the jury returned a guilty verdict Wednesday afternoon after about three hours of deliberation. Ballard, free on bond, had it revoked and faces four to 20 years in prison based on her criminal history.
