The Johnson County Commission is poised to consider plans to create a new year-round shelter for people experiencing homelessness. According to a county news release, the commission at its Dec. 8 meeting will consider an agreement that would put $4 million in federal funding towards a new shelter. The shelter would be a non-congregate hotel-style shelter — meaning guests would each have their own private spaces — and it would be open all year, a service currently unavailable in Kansas’ most affluent county.
