City debates who pays paving front on Vine Street
The city returns to a familiar stalemate over funding a 110 foot Vine Street frontage in the Plumer and Steward addition. The federal Bureau of Mines owns the land and says Congress action is needed to cover the paving cost. The University of Kansas initially sold the property and confirms it cannot pay but will handle assessments on other parcels. The council may vote on a solution, possibly City takeover, at the June 16 meeting.
