Sunday beer sales allowed in Lawrence stores
A new state law lets grocery and convenience stores sell 3.2 percent beer on Sundays if the Lawrence City Commission votes to continue Sunday alcohol sales. A judge ruled to deny a restaurant permit near the proposed Wal-Mart site on Sixth Street and Wakarusa Drive, signaling potential success in a separate Wal-Mart case. About 5,000 residents signed a petition opposing a sexual predator move to Lawrence, with a state legislator from Lawrence joining the effort. A forthcoming Lawrence High School graduate credits Bert Nash Community Mental Health Center's Working to Recognize Alternative Possibilities program for staying in school.
