Lawrence schools receive land donation for career center

Lawrence school board will accept an 11 acre land donation near HiPer Technology at 2920 Haskell Ave from HiPer Real Estate Holdings LLC. The Dwayne Peasley College and Career Center, funded by part of a $92.5 million bond, aims to serve as the district’s new technical education facility with an adult training center run by the Lawrence EDC. The $5.7 million project shifts from a planned 30,000 square foot site near Holcom Park to the HiPer site. The special meeting is at the administration building, 10 McDonald Drive.

State to begin welfare drug tests in Kansas City

Kansas City Missouri reports a pilot welfare drug testing plan similar to Missouri's. After eight months and 636 tests, 20 positives emerged while about 200 declined to comply. Missouri has 32,000 welfare applicants since testing began and the program costs around 500000 dollars. Rep. Stacey Newman calls the plan a waste of state resources. Benefits are suspended for positive tests but can resume after completing treatment and job training funded by federal welfare funds. A second failed test triggers a yearlong benefits loss and a third positive means permanent loss.
