Landlord Faces Cutoff After Arbitary License Battle in Lawrence
Landlord David Broyles had power cut to 407 West 13th in Lawrence after the city demanded a contractor fix wiring he installed without a permit. Builders inspector Ken Jorgensen says the work is unsafe and notes the house was rewired without inspection, while Broyles argues licensing delays and procedures are punitive against his license application. Five tenants were left by candlelight as the dispute heads to a city commission hearing.
