The Kansas Department of Corrections, which is about $6 million short of the money it needs to finish two new prison facilities, is looking to Governor-elect Joan Finney for the answers to its fiscal problems.
State prisons lacking money

board to study the state's monetary problems, including the fiscal shortfall in the corrections department
Kansan staff writer
Corrections department officials said earlier this week at a legislative meeting in Topeka that the monetary shortfall for the completion of the El Dorado and Larned state prisons would mean a loss of prisoner space in the already overcrowded prisons.
Ann Cook, press secretary for Finney, said the Finney administration had created a special budgetary
Department officials blamed the El Dorado monetary shortfall on the high labor wages necessary to get workers to build the 640-cell facility.
The new Larned mental health facility, projected to hold 150 beds, ran out of money for construction and would cost a million over budget, officials said.
State Sen. Wint Winter, R-Lawrence, said the Legislature would have to look for the $6 million in the state's general fund.
The general fund is state money not allocated for a specific use.
"We will have to scrape every
penny we have," he said. "I am sure we will figure something out."
Winter said the state might have to issue a bond that it could repay over time.
A federal court has mandated that Kansas solve its prison overcrowding problem by July 1 and provide improved health care for mentally ill inmates.
Winter said he thought that the state would find as much money as it could for the state prisons but that it might have to ask for an extension on the July 1 deadline from the federal government.

Parking upsets GSP residents
By Mike Brassfield
Kansan staff writer
When the department moved, 32 parking spaces in the lt in front of GSP-Corbina were changed to staff cabins. Then Stoner, director of student housing
But 51 spaces were added to GSP. Corbin lots in the past year, so residents have gained 19 spaces, he said, behind GSP Corbin on Ohio Street.
Since the KU housing department moved from McColm Hall to Gertrude Sellards Pearson-Corbin Hall in late September, GSP-Corbin residents have been unhappy about their parking situation.
"It is a matter of who has to climb the stairs behind the hall," said Gooding, who presented residents' concerns to the KU parking board earlier this month. "We understand that you need to be easily accessible during the day. But we often come in at night, when it's dark, so it's a question of safety."
Kristina Gooding, GSP-Corbin resident, said residents wanted staff members to park in the lot behind the building and again gained the 32 spaces in the main lot.
flow lot at 11th and Indiana streets.
Residents can park in the staff spaces after 5 p.m. but must vacate the spaces by 7 a.m. the next morning. Gooding said there was no other parking in the hall lots available at 7 a.m.
Stoner said the housing department had installed 10 new lights in the spring in the Ohio Street lot, along Ohio Street and along the walkways surrounding Corbin Hall. Ten more lights have been ordered that will replace weaker lights along a walkway from the hall to an over-
Gooding said that many GSP-Corbin residents parked along Ohio Street rather than in the overflow lot to gain up the hill from the lot to the hall.
Gooding also said some residents did not know they could park legally in the overflow lot because the lot's sign was unclear.
"She told me to warn my friends that she had taken legal action and now had the right to have our cars towed." Bent said. "But it's a public street, not her property. The police told us that she couldn't have us towed."
Kim Bent, GSP-Corbin resident, said she was one of several residents who had found letters on her car parked on Ohio Street threatening that it would be towed.
Local stations air racism concerns
Kansan staff writer
By Holly M. Neuman
About 20 area residents voiced concerns last night about racism and human diversity to representatives of a local task force in a television-radio broadcast on three local stations.
KLZR/KLWN radio, KANU radio and Sunflower Cablevision each contributed to and aired the one-and-a-half hour call-in show, sponsored by the Lawrence Task Force on Raceism, discrimination and Human Diversity.

of public forums sponsored by the task force to gather information for the Lawrence City Commission, Haskell Indian Junior College and the University of Kansas. In March, the group will present proposed solutions to the problems of discrimination in Lawrence.
Callers had the option of using a special telephone number that would allow them to voice their concerns to task force without being broadcast.
The first caller was a Topeka resident who said White people needed to realize that they were the
The telecast was the last of a series
"I'm not blaming White people for slavery," the caller said. "But I am blaming them for their racism. That is where the crux of the problem is. White people need to realize that we are people, too."
Another caller said she was a 1989 KU graduate and therefore concerned about the University's reputation.
"KU has a terrible reputation of racism around the country," she said. "Obviously nothing at the University has changed over the years."
