City brings new trailer to North Lawrence homeless camp
A heated trailer at the North Lawrence campsite near the Kansas River levee behind Johnny's Tavern functions as a portable office for city workers and Bert Nash mental health staff. It is not a respite space and raises questions why other service trailers, purchased during the pandemic, aren’t used there. The site now has electricity, enabling use of the Site Box trailer to expand 24/7 staff presence until a longer term shelter is ready.
