Plan blocks big box stores for southern Lawrence area
City planners reject big box development for the southern Lawrence corridor due to traffic and flood plain concerns. The plan envisions mixed use in the area south of 31st Street near Ousdahl Road with medium density housing and office zoning, while calls for apartment growth near 31st and Louisiana and along Lawrence Avenue. Neighbors fear traffic and flooding worsened by multifamily expansion, and commissioners weigh fire sprinklers and energy efficient criteria in new building codes for multifamily housing.
