Sidewalk District Hearing Planned for 1100 Block Massachusetts
The Lawrence City Commission will hold a public hearing Tuesday afternoon on a proposed benefit district for new sidewalks in the 1100 block as part of the Neighborhood Development Program second phase. The project, funded by property owners and the county, is estimated at 9400 dollars, about 1175 per 50 front feet, and includes curb work, lighting, plantings, and an entry plaza at Sixth and Massachusetts. No 600 block sidewalk district will be created due to lower pedestrian traffic and expected development impacts.
