Cleaning up town is dirty business for Lecompton duo
Lecompton residents Pat Istas and Dorothy Shaner lead a town clean-up push amid junked cars, brush piles, and nuisance complaints filed against 33 neighbors. Shaner, 86, recalls a historic junkyard and says the task draws sharp town division while Mayor Roy Paslay and others acknowledge the need to tidy up without broad participation.
