As Salina continues to face housing issues, one type of unit, mobile and manufactured homes, is available now and more of these units are coming by the end of this year. Danny Huehl, an installer of manufactured homes in Kansas, said a few years ago people and investors started talking about updating existing lots and building new homes in mobile home parks around the city. “This wasn’t really blossoming like (we thought) it would,” Huehl said. “Then all of the sudden, with the housing crisis, everything kind of exploded, so our investors are taking off and seeing there’s a need for housing.” Huehl said he’s already put 30 new homes in north Salina off of 13th Street and is bringing in 20 more homes in the coming months there and around 75 units to three other existing developments in the city.
