All 6 candidates attended. ~ach ~>,ave a brief speech setting forth bhs goals and then a question and answer period followed. !·!any topics were explored • One of major interest was that the incumbants denied knowledge that our CO funds had been cut from $1300 to $900. This seems strange since they had voted upon it earlier,Other neighborhoods were not cut proportionately, and we have never received one cent for any services which the members or officers have performed. Other groups have received considerable amounts for administration. In a brief meetinr, (business) following the forum it was announced that before the meeting, 31 membership dues had been received in addition to those paid at the JJ'enuary meeting. (no February meeting was held in anticipation of the candidate fo~.) A plaque was presented to retiring treasurer, Howard Hargrove, for his ten years of service as treasurer and his many hours of service to the cotm,lunity, Honors were noted for Doug and Suaan Hiller who were honored by the State Task force of Friends of Education for their contribution in the field of ·~ducat ion.

Lively discussion followed on many topics.The treasurer reported a balance of $817.49. Available programs discussed were: rehabilition, emergency loans, and energy saving. A report was given about the very successful September picnic. Requests discussed were: Of the requests allowed last year-- only the repair of the sidewalk on 15th St, has been addressed. The picnic bench for Brook ~reek Park south end where most small children play has not been placed there although we were assured that one was already available and that was two years ago. Thjis year the bricks have not been replaced on 13th Street.This is the only side walk in that area and many children walk to school and people who work down town use that street.The street is becoming encreasingly busy with car traffic. Nothing has been done on improving the corner parkway which was allowed last year.(13th & Oakhill). This also was allowed. Subjects discussed for future consideration were: Extend the parking space at the north end of Brook Creek Park becsuse that is a narrow corner (There are only 4 spaces) and when cars have to park in the street it is both inconvenient and dangerous. Widen the draiNAGE DITCH ON THE WEST SIDE OF Brook Creek Park, or deepen it, because the amount of water coming from the stream on the south side if far greater than the ditch can carry on the north side and it floods into the street.

They are intended for and designed for serving the neighborhood, the people who live here. 15th St. is classified as a collector street. It is intended to get people from the neighborhood to the larger streets and back again. Haskell St. is classified as an arterial street. It is intended to get people from the collector streets to the major streets and back again. The use of our neighborhood streets by outside commuters should not be allowed (technically, neither should they be on 15th St., because if it gets worse, the City will want to reclassify 15th as an arterial and widen it). Commuter traffic should be kept on arterial, thoroughfares, and highways whenever possible. This excess traffic from commuters causes lots of problems: noise problems early in the morning, safety problems for school children, early deterioration of pavement, greater potential for accidents. Possible Solutions: Ideally, commuters should be prevented from entering or leaving town on east 15th St. Of course practically speaking this is impossible. Instead we have to use deterrents so that using our neighborhood streets is inconvenient for commuters. This approach can work, because the most important thing to a commuter is a fast and convenient route. So we need to devise deterrents that are effective by making other commuter routs more attractive to them. However, at the same time, the deterrents we choose could be inconvenient for us sometimes, so we should pick ones we can live with. Typical examples in other neighborhoods are: stop signs at every corner, speed bumps, removing the asphalt so the bumpy bricks are exposed, posted 15mph speed limit, gates at neighborhood entrances, traffic controls like directional curbs or signs,. Let's examine some of the options: 1) Stop signs: Very effective, slows down traffic, commuters hate them. Driving slowly through our own neighborhood appeals to many of us and is a minor inconvenience. 2) Speed bumps: Very effective, stop-start driving, commuters hate them. Can be major inconvenience for neighbors too, especially for car mufflers, two-wheeled vehicles, and storm drainage. 3) Expose bricks: Very effective, slows down traffic, commuters hate them. Probably no brick underlayment in Brook Creek Neighborhood. Slow driving is preferable to stop-start driving over speed bumps. �Brool\ ~reek Neighborhood Ass ,iation formerly Far East Lawrence Improvement Association The Committee Reports: Lawrence Association of Neighborhoods Rep. Susan Miller reported that LAN is neutral on the Winter Block Project, they have not been asked for their support. Zoe Ann reported the Art Project is on schedule at the ELRC. CDBG Rep. Jenna Coker said we should call in the appointment of Richard Heckler to the CDBG Board. Sharon Vaughn reported application forms for CDBG requests are not ready yet, due date for them will be extended. However, we should be getting our requests ready.

One neighbor expressed concern about the Parking Lot Lights and the effect all the lights will have on their family at night. New Business: Patty and Joe Klingler from the Lindenwood Street area expressed concern about their neighbor's "yard trash" (many vehicles, trailers, etc. parked on the street), and possibly a drug house near by.

VerdeU Taylor Kurt Tburmaler Dear Friend: I ask you for help in my campaign to win a seat on our Lawrence school board. Some of you know me well, others have only a little knowledge of me. Let me tell you my reasons for making this race. Budgeting for public schools has.always been about making choices, because tax dollars are always limited and must be used wisely. After attending the recent public hearings on closing four Lawrence schools, I am convinced that only some of the possible options for savings have been looked at, and these have not been clearly presented to the public. Now is the time to look at all the options and ,to present clear choices to the public. I have ten years experience as the chief financial officer of a consolidated school district in Connecticut where I was responsible for preparing budgets which were voted on by the public each year. I believe this experience has prepared me to find and evaluate options independently of the district administration. Moreover I have 23 years experience in the private sector which included both financial alld personnel rr.:.anagement in manufacturing aud publishing businesses. I want to put this extensive experience to work for Lawrence. I believe we need to focus on developing the abilities of all our students. Yes, we must continue to address ·the needs of those who are disadvantaged and recognize the special talents of the gifted, but we must pay equal attention to the ordinary student. In this district this means broadening and strengthening vocational education for those who are not college bound. Given the financial limitations we have, it also means we need to concentrate on two priorities, high quality teachers and class sizes which enable them to work with students of all abilities. The recent hearings have brought out the strengths of our neighborhood elementary schools. The personal relationships and teamwork between students, parents and staff which now flourish in these schools must be affirmed. Each one has special qualities and each one is a focus for its neighborhood and strengthens the entire city. Surely we can develop ways to use these buildings more effectively outside of school hours for neighborhood and community programs. As a recently retired person I have the time to work intensively for our schools. As the parent of a National Merit scholar and the son of a professor of education I have been immersed in educational theory and practice all my life. I want to use my experience for Lawrence, my home town. I began my education at Cordley Elementary and graduated from KU with a Business degree. I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt. You can help my campaign to maintain the quality of our Lawrence schools in a number of ways. We must raise campaign money. In the return section below I have listed a number of other ways you can help. I look forward to working with you for our Lawrence schools. I'd appreciate your vote on February 25th. Sincerely, Austin Turney ------------------------------Clip Here-------------------------------------Yes, Austin, we are eager to work with you for our Lawrence schools. 1/We will: Enclose a contribution to your campaign: 0$10 0 $25 D$50 0$100 D Other$_ 0 Distribute literature. 0 Make telephone calls. 0 Host a coffee for Friends and Neighbors. 0 Put a yard sign on my lawn.
