It soon may become more difficult for Lawrence residents to store that old fixer-upper vehicle in their driveway.

At their meeting this evening, city commissioners will consider changing the city’s environmental code to prohibit the storing of abandoned vehicles in driveways.

Recent Municipal Court rulings determined that the city’s code currently allows abandoned vehicles to be stored in a driveway. The city’s legal staff is recommending that the code be changed so abandoned vehicles would have to be stored in a garage or some other structure.

Commissioners meet at 6:35 p.m. today at City Hall.
