The housing situation in Salina is at a critical stage as more companies are moving into and expanding in Saline County. The community, through different people, organizations and industries, is tackling the issue together. Not a situation unique to Salina right now, the need for housing has picked up across the country for the past few years. This unity of the community in Salina is something that many people see as a positive practice going forward. “We’re coming at this from a unified perspective,” said Lauren Driscoll, director of community and development services for the City of Salina. “The projects that put forward have the support of our taxing entities (like the airport authority), the school district and the county support from major employers. That really weighs in very well for us.”
