Bottomline

City commissioners will consider granting Lawrence Bank exclusive use of a pair of public parking spaces along Eighth Street, near Massachusetts Street.

Background

Lawrence Bank has moved into a temporary location at Eighth and Massachusetts streets, while a new multistory office and apartment building is constructed at the northeast corner of Ninth and New Hampshire streets. The bank’s temporary location can not accommodate a drive-thru banking lane, so bank leaders have asked for the use of two public parking space near the north side of their bank building. They also want to put a canopy over the two spaces.
