City Postpones Hearing On Annexation Proposal
The Lawrence City Commission defers the second and final reading of a 1780 acre annexation west of town including the Kansas Power and Light Co. plant to February 15 after protests from KPL Callery Chemical Co. and residents. Officials say the delay gives opponents time to present views and notes notice adequacy may be questioned. The plan adds about 15.5 percent to city size as land east of Peterson Road and Kasold Drive and southwest of the Kansas River is proposed for inclusion.
