County to gift 4 acre lot to Prosoco Build Smart venture
Douglas County commissioners may gift an empty 4 acre plus lot in East Hills Business Park to Prosoco Inc for its new Build Smart venture. The company plans energy efficient panel manufacturing for homes and expects to be in a new building by year end with production in 2016. The move aligns with Lawrence city actions waiving more than 40000 in special assessments tied to the open lot. The commission meets weekly at the Douglas County Courthouse and will also consider building code review bids and zoning text amendments.
