Lecompton Council Fails to Override Mobile Home Code Veto
Lecompton city council could not overturn Mayor Oscar Gowing's veto of the mobile home zoning code. Councilman Lyle Fergus abstained in a 3-0 vote while Dale Gregg Marge Fisher and Bob Wood supported the code. The measure would limit mobile homes to parks with non conforming use rules for existing trailers. The $6,780 project is funded by Douglas County Community Development funds. Gowing opposed the restrictions despite living in a standard house. The council must craft an acceptable ordinance. The Emerald Riesling note appears unrelated.
