Contentious issue of lighted tennis courts near LHS to be discussed again by city commissioners
The lights are not for the children. School district has said numerous times, they do not need lights, The lights are for the Lawrence Tennis Association. They plan to use the courts for tournaments, etc. It is my understanding they will use the courts 4 nights a week, plus tournament play. The LTA is a "club" of sorts, requiring membership, etc. They are looking for a site that is free, as opposed to paying a fee. The school kids do not have night games.

City set to finalize curbside recycling program to begin October 2014; monthly rate $2.81
Does the monthly fee charged to customers cover all costs, including wages to city workers, fuel costs, truck maintenance, cost for containers, etc., or is the city chipping in?

Curbside recycling deal in the works
The Hamm's proposal uses city workers to pick up and haul recycleables. The other companies use their own employess, and are less expensive. Who pays the city employees? They surely won't be expected to do all that extra for no pay. Does that extra pay come from Hamms, or is it one more way the Hamms proposal will cost more.

Sound Off: This summer, crews from Sunflower Paving were tearing out and replacing curbing along Six
Sunflower Paving may do a nice job on streets, etc., but certainly are not friendly in the neighborhoods. We live in west Lawrence, and while they were working on our street, workers were parking in yards, going over curbs to do so, and parking on the wrong side of the street, etc. When residents asked them to move, they were not receptive, but did move when PD was called.

Lawrence school board’s goals outlined for bond issue
That "facilities person" of whom you speak, was the general contractor for the sports facilities and made error after error and changed plans as he went along. He continues with the district making a $100,000 salary after wasting 10's of thousands of dollars on various plans. Let's a least see if they can find a more competent general contractor and hold them accountable for errors!

Two Topeka residents injured in accident north of Lawrence
sierraclub- Not only is your remark not funny, it is disrespectful of victims, law enforcement and medical units. If you were the one involved in the accident, I'm sure you would welcome the help!
