Dever wins praise for steady finances and growth plans
Lawrence city leaders, led by Dever, pushed mid year budget cuts in 2007 to avoid mill levy increases and deficit spending. He cites three major wins including a KU West Campus bio sciences incubator partnership, a new lab at Bob Billings Parkway for growing firms, and a 467 acre Farmland Industries site for an industrial park. The approach aims to attract jobs while keeping Lawrence distinct and fiscally prudent.

Lawrence man charged with distributing meth
Federal prosecutors charged 43 year old Joseph Hibbs Jr. with two counts of distributing methamphetamine after months of investigation. Magistrate Judge James P. O'Hara ordered Hibbs held in federal custody pending trial. Investigators say Hibbs supplied meth in Lawrence since October, including near Maine Street and Woody Park, and he was arrested February 22 in Kansas City Kansas while in possession of meth. Hibbs allegedly housed parole absconder Joshua Sexton in a North Lawrence camper, with Sexton later arrested for parole violation. A confidential informant linked Sexton to Hibbs as meth supplier.
