Bottom line: City commissioners will consider several ordinances for the Lawrence Wesleyan Church development near 31st Street and Kasold Drive.

Background: Commissioners are asked to approve annexation of 34 acres of farm ground southeast of 31st and Kasold Drive and to rezone the property from agricultural to a mix of multi-family and open space zoning. The church is seeking this to accommodate plans for a new church and possible duplex development. Church leaders have said they’re seeking to build a larger church to replace their building at 3705 Clinton Parkway, which formerly housed district offices for public schools.
