Lawrence League opposes Has kell Loop funding use
The Lawrence League of Women Voters opposes using federal Community Development funds for the Has kell Loop through East Lawrence. In a letter to FHWA official R W Morrissey, president Nancy Shantz says the funds should not finance the road and notes the burden will fall on East Lawrence residents while nearby industries and property owners benefit. The letter, a comment on the environmental impact statement, questions housing plans and cites relocation funds already spent. Comments are due December 15 and a public hearing is January 19.
