Minutes of the previous meetings were not available for approval. Treasurers Report: $78.46-in checking account 5.00-check written 7g .00-cash $151.46-total Maxine read a letter from Jerry Wells, District Attorney, regarding a visit to one of our meetings. Since there were no comments, he will be considered for a future meeting. While waiting for the representative for the Tanger Mall to arrive, Pam Weigand, director of the Northeast Kansas Juvenile Detention Center, gave an update on the project. Ground reports weren't as bad as reported. They have formalized blueprints for the building and she will come back and show us the layout and functions. She also answered questions from members. Wint Winter, the representative from the Tanger Factory Outlet Center, visited with us to collect thoughts and ideas for the center. He first gave a brief history of Tanger, explaining there were 17-18 centers throughout the country, mostly in small communities, with Lawrence the largest town so far. They have an option to buy Consolidated Lumber, with an option on the lumberyard to the South. The 1st phase will consist of 100,000 square feet of retail space. The proposal is for three separate buildings - two facing south, and the largest one facing east, with the parking lot in front. Each building will have an anchor tenant. The architecture style is not yet determined. They are now testing the market for stores. He gave results from a market study showing impact in downtown and other retailers this mall should attract two million people/85% from out of ; town. Fifty percent of out-of-towners will shop the Riverfront and downtown. They have worked on the objections raised by the planning commission and think they have been corrected. One way this could be a plus for North Lawrence is more traffic on North 2nd Street will raise it on the priority list at KDOT. Downtown Lawrence supports this project. It also would be a good start for additional improvements on North 2nd Street. Wint encouraged members to write letters of support to the Planning Commissioners and City Commissioners, and to attend a planning commission meeting on February 24.

He took suggestions from the association on our views regarding storm sewers, North 2nd street development, continued single-familyresidential zoning and questioned development on sub-standard lots, traffic and infrastructure on neighborhoods.

The group discussed several events that were either occurring in the neighborhood or affecting it: Christmas decorating contest, Ballard Center dinner, and traffic problems and improvements. Delores asked for ideas for the CDBG proposal. Ideas discussed included street paving, sidewalk repair on Locust Street. Five new members were added to the roll.

Marilyn Rogers tried to read the minutes of the November 8th meeting, which were then discussed and approved. Marguerite gave the treasurer's report. As of December 13, we had a total of $293.21: $274.21 in the checking account and the rest cash. Maxine Lee reported that she delivered a $50 gift certificate to the Lathrum's, a North Lawrence couple who were flooded this summer. This was part of the Unity Church's donation for flood-affected North Lawrence·iesidents. She also said she'd given $25 of the Unity Church's donation to the Ballard Center. This left $1l3. · New business: Maxine proposed that we donate more money to the Ballard Center. She suggested the Ballard Center could use the money for Christmas presents for a flooded family, or it could use it for an "unadapted" family. After discussion, the NLIA voted to send another $50 to the Ballard Center, earmarked for a North Lawrence family (not necessarily one with kids). We decided to keep the remaining $63 in case we hear of anyone else needing assistance. We then discussed programs for 1994 meetings. Delores will arrange for representatives from the park department (possibly Fred De Victor), FMC and the street maintenance department (possibly Teresa Gorman) to meet with us. We're asking the street department to discuss culvert maintenance as one way to reduce street flooding in North Lawrence. Marilyn and Delores announced that the Christmas lighting contest would be judged this week. FMC representatives would do the judging so there would be no favoritism given to any of the entries. Several businesses donated prizes for the decorating contest: Fat Man's Restaurant gave a dinner for two: Roger's Food Center donated a 5 pound ham, B&C Auto donated $50 in auto repair, River City Car Wash gave $100 in car wash tokens. which we broke into smaller amounts to give to several winners, La Tropicana Restaunmt donated dinner for two and Pines Greenhouse donated a rose bush. We could have had many more prizes. but when we were soliciting, we were afraid we wouldn't have many entries. In the end, we had 11 entries. Delores and Marilyn reported on the CDBG request we sent to the city in November. We asked for $3.660 in operating expenses, which pays mainly for the newletter and office supplies, $100 to provide supplies for a volunteer program to help elderly or disabled North Lawrence residents, $2,880 for repair of the brick sidewalk on Locust Street, and $3,300 for culvert cleaning, repair and replacement. After submitting the request. Fred De Victor gave Delores some ideas for next year's request. He has some improvements in mind for Lyons Park plus more tree-planting sites. Finally, we discussed general neighborhood chitchat, such as what's going on along the north side of the tracks, when's the burned building going to be tom down and who's in the hospital. Meeting adjourned at 7:50. �MINUTES OF THE NORTH LAWRENCE IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION January 10, 1994 Delores Todd called the meeting to order at 7:05p.m. Marilyn Rogers read the minutes, which were then approved by the members. Marguerite gave the treasurers report. She said we had a total of $224.21 in the checking account and $21.00 in cash. Delores announced the program schedule for spring meetings. On February 14, a representative from the Lawrence Police Department will speak to the group about setting up a neighborhood watch program. In March, FMC people will visit with us to explain their role in the community. In April, we'll meet with someone from the street department to discuss culvert maintenance. Delores said she has been spending some of our CDBG funds and buying office supplies, such as notebooks and a filing cabinet. She also announced that CDBG meetings begin this week on the 13th. Marilyn asked for help contacting community churches and schools for information for the community calendar for next month's newsletter. Shirley North volunteered to do the calling. Shirley reported on a call she had received asking for volunteers to the CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocate) program. These volunteers work with children caught up in the court system, often in custody battles. A_nyone wishing to work with this group should contact Lena at the Roger Hill Volunteer Center. They plan to start a training program at the end of the month. Marguerite reported that Maxine Lee is back in the hospital with lung problems. Marguerite will also be contacting North Lawrence businesses regarding the Neighbor-to-Neighbor program. This program has been set up with government flood money. She also announced that as part of this program, a potluck is scheduled for February 13 at the Douglas County Extension Center. Everyone in the county is invited to attend. Cheryl Miller asked if it would be possible to gauge support for rezoning Locust Street from 2nd to 7th. Currently, that section is zoned industrial. She would like to see it rezoned both to prevent industrial development in the area and to be able to do things to her home that are prevented by the zoning category, like refinancing at much lower rates. She said Bob Moody told her the city would be willing to research whether this was feasible, but it didn't want to waste it's time if the residents didn't support the change. Shirley volunteered to help fmd residents of homes in this area. Marilyn will put a blurb in the newsletter to gauge support throughout the neighborhood. There was considerable discussion about what the city has planned for the area bounded by the depot, the river and -2nd and 3rd streets. Some believe the city plans to demolish all businesses and residences in the area to make room for parks, the farmers market and parking, Others believe the city just wants property owners to clean up the area so it's not an eyesore visible from city hall and the mall. We should probably have a city representative come explain their plans to us. Delores announced the winners of the Christmas contest: 1st prize: The Glen and Ellen Miller 2nd prize: Tommy and Linda Lee 3rd prize: Mrs. Roberts Honorable mentions: The Beebes and the Gillespies Ted Boyle mentioned that he had called people he knew at Sunflower Cable to come over and take pictures and that he'd seen several North Lawrence homes on the news. �Marguerite announced that the Tenants-to-Homeowners program will hold a "school" for prospective home buyers in February. The school will explain the program, which helps low-income people buy homes need rehabilitation in target neighborhoods plus helps them fix up the homes. Shirley asked if we all knew the New Year's baby was a North Lawrence baby. He belongs to Byron of Byron's Auto House. Delores adjourned the meeting at 8:05. �Minutes of the March 14, 1994 North Lawrence Improvement Association Meeting Delores Todd called the meeting to order at 7:05. Marilyn Rogers read the minutes, which the group approved. Marguerite Johnson gave the treasurer's report. We had $49.21 in the account. The city's $155 reimbursement for mailing the newsletter had arrived, but not been deposited, for a total of $204.21 in the account. We had $24 in cash. Kathy Martinez of the Neighbor-to-Neighbor Program informed the group that she could provide assistance to residents and business owners affected by last summer's flooding. Call here at 843-2383 if you qualify for assistance and are having trouble getting it or if you need more information. Ed Flynn FMC plant manager spoke to the group, informing us of FMC's activities and role in the community. He said that the company had not had a mechanism for communicating with the neighborhood. So this was the first step in what he hoped would be better communication. Flynn described the company's background. FMC is <m international $3.8 billion company based in Chicago. The local plant has been here since 1951. It employees about 225 people and has a $12 million payroll, making it the eighth largest employer in Lawrence. It pays about a quarter of a million in taxes. Locally, FMC produces phosphates for use in products such as Pepsi, Dr. Pepper, Jello, Aunt Jemima maple syrup. Velveeta, Wheaties, Cinnrunon Toast Crunch, Total, Soft Batch Cookies, Ritz Bits, hot dogs, hrun, bacon, crescent rolls, pet food, Crest toothpaste, Cascade dishwasher soap <md Spic and Span. They produce the different forms of the minerals, which can act as leavening agents, buffering agents, cleaning agents, nutrients, runong others. FMC is a safety-oriented facility, says Flynn. In 1993, the plant had gone 3 years without an accident causing an employee to miss work. FMC provides preventive health care, tests employees for drugs and conducts regularly safety meetings and drills. Plus, yearly, it also conducts joint drills with the fire department. The company has an emergency response plan, which is available at the library. Flynn says he'd be glad to also give NLIA a copy for our files. The phosphate manufacturing process produces hydrogen sulfide gas, which smells like rotten eggs. Because of neighborhood complaints, the company installed in July, 1993, a $1.8 million scrubber to remove the smell. Flynn says he hasn't gotten a complaint about the smell since then. He also pointed out that the government didn't legislate this scrubber, they installed it in response to neighborhood complaints. Currently, FMC is working to reduce waste emissions by 50%, Flynn says. One way they do that is to recapture the heat produce in the manufacturing process cu1d reuse it to heat the facility. FMC co-sponsors the RIF (Reading is Fundrunental) progrrun at Woodlawn School and has bought dolls and toys for the kindergarten class. It's employees donated $21,000 to the United Way this year, and some volunteer at the Ballard Center. The company also sponsors ball teruns and the boys and girls club. Several people attending the meeting had questions for Flynn. The Kopps asked about the emergency alarms that go off at night. They said they worry that the company is emitting pollutants or poisons at night and wonder if it's safe. They said they comp<my's secwity say they can't hear the sirens go off. Flynn said his reason for being at the meeting was to start to work on these types of issues. He wanted to set up a mech<mism for dealing with them. �Kopp said he feels no one will buy his property because of where it is, even though property taxes just went up $14,000. His daughter was denied a loan for her property because the bank was worried about the possibility of ground-water contamination. Kopp asked what was FMC really doing about safety? Flynn said he couldn't speak to the bank's lending practices. Kopp said the company could talk to banks and show that there was no pollution. Flynn responded that FMC could tell banks that they're using the wrong information and give them they records FMC files with the state. Flynn said FMC has been planning an open house to address these issues. That way company representatives could walk us through the plant and point out the many safety features. Flynn said he'd also be willing to periodically come back to NLIA meetings. Martinez said she'd like to contact FMC's public relations department to see what assistance FMC could offer flood victims. Bob Moody mentioned that he's smelled natural gas as he's driven by a pipeline on the southeast comer of FMC's property. Flynn said he'd check that out. Not only is it a safety hazard, but FMC doesn't want to pay :my more utilities than it has too. Finally, Janice Johnson, a representative of the Lawrence Girls Fast Pitch program, spoke to us about the possibility of opening ball fields in North Lawrence. Right now, the 10- to 12-year old girls must travel to Johnson County and other areas in the state for all their games. The group has joined with the Breakfast Optimists Club to develop fields in Lawrence. Currently, they are negotiating with FMC to lease comp<my land. So far, details of how the site would be used have not been worked out. But, Johnson said, there should be no street parking, and until the group has money for lights, there will be no night games. However, m<my of the grunes for older girls start at 9:15, so late night crowds and noise could be possible once lights are installed. Kopp asked what would be done to prevent the fields from being used by the general public and how would the group avoid general rowdiness. Johnson said the fields are too small for use by adult teruns. Plus the agreement with FMC will be only for this group. And they won't sell beer at the grunes, although some adults may bring some along. Flynn added that the agreement would include a clause to shut the fields down if alcohol becomes a problem. He also said he'd like to poll the neighborhood to see how we feel about the fields. In general, people attending the meeting commented favorably on the fields, saying they were glad to support girls' sports. �We are fortunate that we have few crime problems in North Lawrence, says Mark Brothers of the Lawrence Police Department who spoke to the NLIA meeting in February. Vandalism is rare here as are car and residential burlaries. And we don't have to put up with "stupid drunk tricks" like residents around KUdo. North Lawrence has mainly two types of crime problems: those inherent to having bars in residential neighborhoods and theft by transients restocking their "summer camp." Elm has gotten better as far as drunk driving goes, he says; Locust is worse. Some of the "drunk-type" problems center around the bar at 508 Locust. According to Brothers, most of the fights and other problems are caused by out-of-town friends of the regular clientele. And few of the problems extend to the rest of the neighborhood. Generally, there's more trash than violence, he says. North Lawrence should expect the "homeless" population to be moving back to their summer camps along the river in April. So we should also expect to lose camping gear and related items if we leave our garages and storage sheds unlocked, Brothers says. Popular items that the transients take include fishing poles, tents, grills and lanterns. We should also expect some localized "antics" around the 200 to 500 blocks of Elm and Locust, he says. Some are bar-related; some are related to gang activity (especially on Elm). Brothers says the police department keeps a good watch on the group suspected of being in a gang. Brothers says he hears complaints that the police don't patrol North Lawrence enough. However, this is a reflection of how safe the neighborhood is, he says. If an area appears OK, patrol officers will head to other areas where problems are more chronic. If you frequently see officers in your neighborhood, it means your area may be having more problems than you want, he says. officer~"sitting But even with a police on your doorstep," it's possible to be a crime victim. That's why citizens should be proactive. Citizens are the eyes and ears of the police. Brothers says that while North Lawrence in general is good about knowing who belongs in a neighborhood, we sometimes question whether we should call the police when we see something suspicious. We should, he says. Preventing crime has to be a partnership between the citizens and police. If you are interested in setting up a more fonnal partnership with police-a neighborhood watch program- call Mark Brothers at the Lawrence Police Department, 841-7210. �MINUTES OFTHENORTHLAWRENCEIMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION-APRIL 11,1994 Maxine Lee called the meeting to order at 7:15. Marilyn Rogers read the minutes, which the membership approved. Marguerite Johnson gave the treasurers report. We had $204.21 in the bank, $27 in cash, plus we received about $12 for new memberships tonight. We had a short discussion about having a neighborhood-wide picnic in spring. The group voted to have a potluck picnic on June 4 at John Taylor Park, starting at 6:00. This will be after the newsletter comes out. Someone will also post notices at Rogers Food Center so we won't miss letting anyone know about the picnic. Maxine announced that the city has changed bulk pickups back to Friday. So the spring cleanup will be on June 10 this year. Also, no limbs will be picked up this spring. Our usual tree service has raised its prices for picking up limbs (nearly three times what it used to be), and Delores Todd has not found a cheaper service. (We learned about this price increase before CDBG appropriations were finalized, so we were able to increase our request for next year. We will probably schedule the tree service to pick up limbs in the fall cleanup.) Maxine announced that a Parks and Recreation Department representative will speak at the next meeting on May 9. A representative from the trailer park on Walnut was scheduled to appear at this meeting. However, that person did not show up nor did she call to cancel. This is the trailer court that plans to expand across Walnut, add 30 trailers to the lot and wants access to Eighth Street. Members vented their feelings about the non-appearance and about the planned expansion. As background: So far, the City Planning Commission has denied the owner's request for the expansion. They said the owner can't expand unless access to the court is from Eighth Street and not Walnut. To do this, the owner would need to buy two houses on Eighth, which he would then tear down. Apparently, by the date of this meeting, one of the houses had been torn down. The ownership of the other house was up in the air because its last owner is suing to get it back. After considerable discussion, David Baird made a motion that we write a letter explaining our concerns to the City Commission and the Planning Commission. The membership voted to approve the motion. Marilyn Rogers will write the letter. To summarize our concerns: •The trailer court will increase traffic on streets that are already too narrow for the current load they carry: Elm, Eighth, Walnut and Oak. The drainage ditches on these streets make it difficult to expand the roads. •The trailer court will decrease property values. •Because trailers depreciate like cars, the used trailers the owner plans to bring to the site will run down the area more than if he moved new trailers in. •The trailer court will be rental property rather than owner-occupied. Tenants have little incentive to keep a neighborhood looking good. In general, the rundown properties in North Lawrence are the ones that are rented. In fact, to compare apples to apples, just look at the difference between the trailer court on Third Street (which is mainly owner-occupied) with the current Walnut Street trailer court (which is mainly tenant-occupied). •Gas and water pressure is already too low in homes on Walnut Street. The demand for water and gas created by adding another 30 trailers would be above current capacity. •The existing court is overcrowded. It doesn't meet any kind of code. In fact, some of the trailers are located on city property. •The owner has made little effort to clean up the current trailer court. The trailer court is junky with couches, chairs and all sorts of trash strewn about. •The membership believes that once the court's owner gets pennission to expand the trailer court, he'll do whatever he wants with it. •The dirt road currently serving the trailer court is a mess. �... •The membership worries that even if the owner cleans up the trailer court, the next owner may not be so good. Finally, Kathy Martinez announced she had flower, herb and vegetable seeds available for beautification projects. The seeds are provided to the Neighbor-to-Neighbor program through the America the Beautiful Fund. Although the seed is to be used for community landscaping, Lawrence has rules for landscaping public property. So Kathy will let us take the seeds for personal use. She will bring packets to the next meeting. �MINUTES OF THE NLIA SPECIAL MEETING, JUNE 27, 1994 Delores Todd called the meeting to order and passed out copies of memos from Jo Andersen, George Williams and Lynn Goodell. Mayor Andersen asked for our opinion on zoning in North Lawrence as well as our concerns about the sewer system, water pressure and quality and storm drainage. Delores explained that most of North Lawrence is zoned RS2, which means that lots must be at least 60 feet wide by 100 feet long. Other residential zones include RS 1, which are 70 x 100 feet and RSE or estates of at least 20,000 square feet. Maxine Lee mentioned that the original lots were 25 feet wide and that it's been "grandfathered in" that this size is OK in certain areas. Several people said they thought larger lots would be best. In that way, development would be less dense and there would be fewer problems with drainage from the mounded lots. Ted Boyle said he didn't want to pay for improvements so a developer could add onto our neighborhood. The developer should absorb all costs of upgrading sewers and drainage and tying in with the existing system. Kathy Martinez said most of the people she talked with wanted to make sure this area stayed single-family housing, not apartments. Ted and Maxine concurred. This started a discussion about some developers, such as Bob Bloom, who have snuck apartments in by building single-family homes then converting them to duplexes/apartments. People asked what it was we were really supposed to decide at this meeting. Were we supposed to say yes, we want the agricultural/residential district as outlined in the zoning master plan or decide on a zoning for the entire area or what? So Delores called Bob Moody to ask for his clarification. Over the speaker phone Bob said if we were suggesting a new classification, such as the agricultural/residential district in the master plan, we would have to do the footwork and come up with the dimensions, etc. He also said he thought the commission would not go for any unilateral zoning changes in North Lawrence. He emphasized that RSE would be a definite no for this area. He said we can't make zoning decisions retroactively. In other words, current neighborhoods would always be RS2 with minimum 60-foot-wide lots, any undeveloped land under development would conform to currently existing zoning and any changes would have to be approved by all landowners. He also said the zoning commission would be against spot zoning to prevent in-filling garden spots in the neighborhood. He said "we would never get it done" if we wanted to make any major changes to neighborhood zoning. �Ted asked what Andersen wrote us for then. Bob said the commission is wanting our thoughts about zoning for undeveloped areas in the neighborhood, such as along Eighth and Ninth Streets, Lake and Hickory. For example, someone is proposing 13 new houses on Eighth and Lake. He said those houses are going in on 300-foot lots. (wide, deep???) He added that an engineer for Black and Veach studied the neighborhood sewer system. The engineer said we have serious problems that need to be addressed but didn't think the proposed development would affect drainage. Cheryl Miller asked about the proposed zoning changes along Locust and Maple. Bob said he would talk with the city commission tomorrow evening to see if they have any interest in changing the zoning using a notarized petition (?) process. Cheryl said her group could write a letter that asked for a simple yes or no and could be notarized and returned. Bob said there might be problems with apathy among the homeowners. Kathy said she'd talked with lots of homeowners and there was a lot of interest in getting rid of the industrial zoning in that area. Bob said one way to deal with it would be to rezone just 1 or 2 blocks, then when other landowners see the benefits of the change, they might get on the band wagon, too. Cheryl and Ted said a couple of areas on Elm are zoned commercial and they need to be rezoned, too. Bob said planning would be happy to do it unless the property owners object. He said for businesses like the Tropicana, there is a neighborhood business zoning class that would allow them to stay in business where they are. He said changing the zoning on Maple will be more difficult as there are more industrial uses on that street. Because he owns property on Maple, he would have to excuse himself from any votes on changing zoning on that street. Cheryl: I'm mainly interested in Elm and Locust. Bob: But we should do all the streets at once, and there are homes along Maple. He said he was going to drive the area with Linda (from the planning commission?) to see what planning's recommendations are for the area. Ted: Don't you think we should down zone along the tracks? Bob: Most of North Lawrence except for Maple and Locust are RS2. The industrial zones are MS which means they must be at least 100 feet square and have at least a 50 foot setback from residential property. Delores: How many houses are planned on Hickory? �Bob: I don't know. But the developer plans to do the project in phases. Maxine: Didn't the city just buy out one a property in that area because of flooding? Bob: That's a ground water problem. After speaking with Bob, the group gave their thoughts about what they'd like to see in the neighborhood. The general consensus was that we don't want to lose the rural character of the neighbor and that we prefer low density housing. Most of the people agreed with Ted who said he was not against building houses in the neighborhood, he just didn't- want to see them slam next to each other. He also brought up the point that the starter homes being built were giving the neighborhood a rental atmosphere with people continually moving on to something better. The group then voted to suggest undeveloped land in North Lawrence be zone RS 1 and have minimum 70-foot-wide lots. The discussion then turned to sanitary sewers. Ted and Cheryl said they were in favor of having a moratorium on development until problems with the sewer system are resolved. I said stopping development would probably give the city an excuse not to fix the sewers. Delores said we should ask for sewers and that the developers should put them in. Kathy agreed. Delores pointed out that the city has known about the sewer problems since at least 1972. Cheryl said maybe we should thank the city whenever things get done here, but it's so hard to get things done. For example, she said, Bob gives her a different story about rezoning Locust every time she talks to him. The discussion then turned into general griping about Bob, the depot parking, the loss of the fence that had been along the levy by the bridge and the broken glass and trash the city is leaving on the new beach. Kathy asked if we knew that the flood anniversary is coming up. She thought we should do something to commemorate it, but she didn't have time to organize it. She asked if anyone else was interested. Someone asked why would we interested in doing this. She said to remind those who were unaffected. Delores said she'd talk to Kathy about it. Delores called for our ideas about the sanitary sewers. We decided to support four points of George Williams' ideas as outlined in his May 31, 1994 memo to the city manager. The only point we do not agree with is #4: to adopt a street standard that would allow ditches rather than curb and gutters. We do not consider ditches an adequate solution to the drainage problems and request curb and gutters be installed. �Cheryl asked if anyone had come up with CDBG ideas yet. She also talked about making an effort to get more people involved. Delores explained that a lot of people used to be involved but have gotten frustrated by our inability to change things. She said she'd done several things this year, like sending out postcards to people in the neighborhood, but people still didn't come to the meetings. Kathy said she'd be interested in taking my position on the CDBG Board. Delores said she would set up a NLIA Board meeting this summer so we could come up with ideas and set dates for the fall trash pick up, etc. Several people complained that the city didn't pick up everything they left out and also wondered why Lonnie didn't pick up stuff. I said no one got around to calling him. Meeting adjourned around 9:00 Attendees: Maxine Lee Marguerite Johnson Cheryl Miller Ellen Miller Ted Boyle Kathy Martinez Delores Todd Marilyn Rogers �NLIA Executive Board Meeting July 28, 1994 The Executive Board met to set dates for clean-ups, newletters, discuss CDBG requests, appointing the secretary's replacement, and other miscellaneous items. Attending were: Delores Todd, Maxine Lee, and Mar3~arite Johnson. We discussed the remaining money of our CDBG allocations. Delores showed the much-needed office supplies and letterheads purchased. Plans were made for a one-page newsletter yet to be sent on this year's allocations. Tentative dates discussed include: Fall clean-up and chipper October 14 September 12 meeting- member/members of city commission discuss and answer questions regarding development and zoning in North Lawrence October 10 meeting - City engineers office to talk about culvert replacement and maintenance November - Thanksgiving dinner shared with Ballard Center December - again will sponsor a lighting contest Newsletters: will work on the week of September 26 December 26 March 20 April 14 Spring clean-up Marguerite asked about using some of the money donated by the Unity Church of Lawrence to help pay for school supplies, a project of the Ballard Center. This will be brought up at the September meeting. An amendment to the by-laws concerning dues will also be presented at the September meeting. According to the present by-laws annual dues are due on the second Monday of January. As treasurer, Marguerite finds this timing very confusing. The way this has been handled, sometimes means a person is paid up for a year and a half. The proposed amendment will read: Section 1. Dues- Annual dues of one dollar per year shall be assessed each member of THE NORTH LAWRENCE IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION and are due on the second Monday of September. No dues shall be accepted on the day of elections. (Dues can be paid anytime but membership will run from September to August.) With all business accomplished, meeting was adjourned. �,- THE NORTH LA!IJRENCE IMPROVEMENT ASSOCATION Jr· 1 c? , :1. 99r.+ The meeting Todd. was called to order at 7:05 by President Delores Minutes from the May 9, 1994 meeting were read by acting t,::H·y To,n Hc::,ril,on. secre- Treasurer Marguerite Johnson reported $247.00 in the treasurey.

Ms. Gorman reported that there had been $39,600 spent on drainage/ditch cleaning spent to date. If a culvert is replaced (usually at a cost of $4-6 per linear foot) gravel will be replaced (concrete also). When a culvert is cleaned, the ditch is cleaned on both sides for the entire block. On October 12, 1994 the stormwater master plan will hold a public meeting and will address long range plans for North Lawrence. Bids will be taken on a pumping station to be located on North Second Street by the end of the year. Lynn Goodell from the Housing and Neighborhood Development office spoke to the group briefly about housing affordability. He talked about development currently happening in North Lawrence and plans for future development. Mr. Goodell addressed the city purchase of property on North Seventh Street. He p~esented a tentative plan that would create a private street and places houses 4 or 5 deep into the lot facing the common private street. Public reaction was not favorable to this plan. There are also neighbors opposed to the plan. REGULAR MEETING AGENDA * * Minutes approved as read by Tom Harmon.

Depot Report Mike Wildgen reported the depot had acquired the land and buildings on the north and south side of Locust st. Federal money was used for the purchase. A combination of 80% federal money and 20% city money will be used to revamp Locust Street to N. 3rd. Effective immediately train traffic will increase through North Lawrence. There will be an approximate increase from 65 trains per day to 130 trains per day. 2. North Lawrence Development Plan Bob Moody reported that he will ask the city commission for a recommendation on the North Lawrence Development Plan by the end of the year. The recommendation is expected to include downzoning lot sizes from RS2 to RS1. This would affect large areas subject to redevelopment such as 8th & Lake, 8th & Lyons and 8th & Oak. Road Development: any new developed street would increase to 24 1 width with two ditches and parking on one side only. Storm Water: initiate ditch maintenance system to maintain ditches. These recommendations will be made to the city in December. 3. BALLARD CENTER Ballard Center will host an annual Thanksgiving dinner. Turkey, ham, mashed potatoes and gravy are provided.

Shirley North was suggested 10. CBW The city has negotiated to purchase the CBW building for $399,000. Plans are to recreate a recycling center. It will be on the city commission agenda on November 15. Meeting adjourned at 9:30. Respectfully submitted Tom Harmon Recording Secretary I �MINUTES OF THE NORTH LAWRENCE IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION December 12, 1994 Representatives from FMC Corporation and Union Pacific Railroad were in attendance to present their plans for closing the North Ninth crossing. Al Herring and Dave Figuieres from FMC explained UP's railway through North Lawrence was the busiest coal corridor in this area. Now eight trains a day pass through with an additional twenty after March. The speed limit through this area is 40 miles per hour. They explained while the closing of North Ninth was UP's decision, it fit into their plans also, and wanted to let neighborhood residents know of their plans. FMC plans to upgrade their packaging system. They presently have a problem with leakage. This is a $10 million plus project. The basis of the project is the need to move the loading dock on the north side of the warehouse. The expansion will add 12,000 square feet and be 120 feet high. Construction will start in the spring of 1995. Dave Boyle, an engineer from Union Pacific, explained their concern and why they wanted to close the crossing. A traffic count on September 25, 1994 showed: 281 9th street crossing 182 8th street crossing 1233 7th street crossing 1194 3rd street crossing UP feels the grade of the 9th street crossing and the number of trucks and other traffic using the crossing makes it so dangerous. Mr. Boyle was the engineer involved in the fatal accident on the tracks on 3rd street, and related his personal experiences. Neighborhood residents questioned the closing of our streets as the railroad and city already closed vehicle traffic on N. 4th. Concerns included fire protection, insurance rates, inability to cross at other crossings, lack of UP's promise to upgrade the 8th street crossing as a condition to closing 4th street, and the unsightly appearance of the 4th street intersection. Mr. Boyle was to take these concerns back to officials of Union Pacific. Regular Agenda Due to the absence of the secretary, no minutes were read. Marguerite gave the treasurers report. Delores gave the final report on CDBG requests: Operating Expenses $1900 Clean-up $3000 House Numbers $3000 Culverts $1980 Playground Equipment $2982 A reminder of the Christmas decorating contest was given.
