Sound Off: Water fountains
Own Sound Off - Why has Sound Off become nothing but small single person complaints. I remember when it use to be questions that more than 2 people in the community could benefit from.

Sound Off: Key conundrum
I remember when Sound Off actually had good questions that was beneficial to more than just one person. Questions like this are easy to get an answer to via Email. I don't blame people for asking, I blame LJW for actually posting these and not using their brains.

Planning commission votes to defer decision on Menards for one month
Menards is the company that is flying workers from WI to work in their store in Minot, ND. This company thinks outside the box, they'll figure out a way to make it work.

City planners recommending denial of proposed Menard's store; Planning Commission to debate project Monday
But it (proposed location) is so far to the West of Louisiana Street, how is it really going to add any additional strain on to it that Home Depot and WalMart don't already? I agree with you 100% though about it being beyond capacity though.

What a joke this is. We (city of Lawrence) spent how much money on the old Farmland site to develop into a business park to attract jobs? And here we have a company wanting to come to town and "create" (or how ever you want to look at that) ~250 jobs.
I could see if this was in a residential neighborhood, but its not. Businesses have already expanded to the west of Iowa street on 31st St and that worked out perfectly fine. What a joke of planners we have around here!!!

City sets March bid date for Farmland business park construction project
I heard that theres a pretty good local firm that builds infrastructure (or at least that's what they claimed to build in Junction City).

City clears the way for traffic-calming devices to be installed on 27th Street between Iowa and Louisiana
They should put one of those traffic cam things that show your speed and then take your picture if you're speeding. That would be beneficial in both that the people that obey the speed limit wouldn't have to slow down (to go over the proposed "speed humps") and then the city would generate extra money to waste on more art programs.

City takes step toward committing to rec center
I'm sure all of the student athletes would love new facilities. Who wouldn't, the newer the better. And how much of the tax revenue do those student athletes contribute to Lawrence, especially since they get so much for free....
