City officials say the Rock Chalk Park recreation center will not open on September 2 as planned. Ernie Shaw, director of parks and recreation, says staff now expect moving in around early September to finish a 181,000 square foot facility with eight full courts and amenities.
Shaw said the town’s new fitness center will likely have a soft public opening in mid September with a grand opening planned for October. Officials had set September 2 as a start date for fall classes but will push back several sessions. Wood flooring, sanding, and striping are underway in multiple gyms as delays persist.
Lawrence city commissioners remain split over proposed rules to permit more permanent food truck setups in multiple parking lots. They requested two weeks to refine regulations and remove the current three hour daily operation cap.
Independent filmmaker Lyn Elliot of Kansas City will be in Lawrence this week to record audio only stories from women about practical advice left by exes. The recordings will become part of a short film collaboration with four other filmmakers including two from Lawrence.
