Plans by Matt Herynk owner of Fast Signs to convert two 1000 square foot garage units into a garage condo with one unit rented to a small business and a special use permit required for the CS zoning. Demolition begun on a 125 year old house to salvage beams for restoration projects while Elliott Electric Supply files to renovate a 600 E 22nd Terrace warehouse in eastern Lawrence to serve contractors. A rural rezoning request seeks to convert 40 acres near East 900 Road and North 1800 Road to light industrial zoning.
Area leaders once eyed a new industrial park site with easy Turnpike access but neighbors strongly opposed the idea. A Berry Plastics warehouse was approved, located west of the interchange, while most development plans faded. The rezoning packet shows a generic concept with an 11,000 square foot shop, a 2,000 square foot office, and about 30 parking spaces, with further details still being checked.
