Cate Batchelder LAWRENCE City commission divided on homeless shelter issue It's been a tough week for supporters of a proposed homeless shelter that would be willing to accept clients who have been drinking. Members of the board were faced with a lack of unexpected opposition at a meeting Monday evening for concerned Oread residents. Around 2 a.m.yesterday,the Doug las County Planning Commission stopped short of recommending approval of a proposed open shelter for the homeless with a 4-to-4 vote. A tie-vote from the Planning Commission means the shelter is officially not recommended to the Lawrence City Commission. Sheila Stogsdill, assistant planning director, said that essentially equaled a recommendation for denial. JJ Hensley "I think for most of the commissioners it became an issue of whether or not the land-use is appropriate." Stogsdill said. "They saw the potential for a negative impact on the neighborhood with the concentration of social services providers already in that area." Proponents of the shelter, to be located at 944 Kentucky St., will need at least a 4-to-1 vote from the city commission to open. City officials expect the item to appear on the March 25 agenda.

No arrests had been made by yesterday afternoon The theft was discovered Sunday when employees found a computer malfunction, according to Dan Upddegrove, the university's vice president for information technology who described the incident on the school's Web site.
