James Dunn, 936 Kentucky, Neighbor and Landlord of the Community Drop-In Center, had a concern about the request for extended hours of operation for the Community Drop-In Center.   He said he was not sure what the Drop-In Center’s plans entailed for the extended hours.  Another concern was the shelters would be housing the homeless year round.  He asked the City Commission to defer the request because the center had a two-year window to operate under before coming to the City Commission for review.

Teresa Thompson, Board Chair, Community Drop-In Center, said she was speaking on behalf of Community Drop-In Center and their desire to expand the hours of operation until 9:00 p.m.  Extending the hours would allow staff to spend additional time on case management, housing issues, grants, and counseling.  She said the request for additional hours was not so the center could remain open every night until 9:00, but to have the flexibility to choose when the center could be opened.

Kennedy asked if the flexibility to choose when the Center could be open would occur at different times of the year.  He also asked “how” would the Center let their clients know about the additional hours?

Thompson said the Center would let their clients now about the additional hours “by appointment.”  The appointments would be set with the different service providers that currently come to the center on a rotating basis.  There were times in the winter months where there would not be any type of agencies open for the homeless.  She said the Center would like to be able to take the homeless in during the afternoon and evening hours when it was cold, prior to the Salvation Army opening its doors.

Rundle asked if their current Use Permit Upon Review required the center to close at noon.

Thompson said the Center was open to their clients until noon and could stay open until 5:00 p.m. for paper work. 

Rundle asked if the Center new how they would fund for additional staff because of the extended hours.

Thompson said funding was a tricky issue.  If they increase their hours, the rate was astronomical and would be difficult to meet.  She said it was $50.00 an hour for the additional hours. 

Henry asked if the center had the approval to stay open until 9:00, would the center be open for anyone who would want to use the facility.

Thompson said “yes.”  It would be primarily by appointment, but would like to have the flexibility to utilize the facility during those particular hours.      

Rundle asked staff if a review could be triggered if there were concerns about the center.

Linda Finger, Planning Director, said “yes.”

Rundle said given the fact the City Commission could bring this back for review if there were any complaints, he was inclined to approve the request.  He asked staff if the review would go to an Administrative Review or to the Planning Commission?

Sandra Day, Planner, said the review would be administrative, however, because of the controversy surrounding it, staff brought it directly to the City Commission.  It does not require the review to go back to the Planning Commission.  She said staff’s recommendation was to approve the request.

Dunfield asked staff if the Use Permit Upon Review would be reviewed in December.

Day said the anticipation was that staff would start the review at a certain time period and review the findings annually.  Staff intended to provide a summary report for the City Commission to receive.  The Center had gone through an evaluation and there have not been any issues of violations of complaints.

Kennedy said he did not see any problems with this request; his concern was the Drop-In Center had not adequately looked at their funding source for these additional hours.  He said this additional expense could put the Drop-In Center in a bad position financially within a short period of time with these extended hours. 

Hack asked Thompson if the Drop-In Center’s intentions were not anticipating locking into these extended hours until they had some funding sources.

Thompson said the Center had several grants pending and was working with Kansas Non-Profit Association.  She was certain the funds would be fine.          

Moved by Hack, seconded by Dunfield, to concur with the Planning Commission recommendations to adopt the findings of fact and approve the revisions to the UPR (UPR-10-11-99) for the Community Drop in Center, 944 Kentucky, expanding hours of operation until 9:00 p.m., subject to the additional conditions:

1.                  Hours of Operation shall be limited to daytime only with client access limited to 8:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m. (Posting of this on the exterior of the facility);

 

2.                  The hours of operation, and contact person shall be posted on the site;

 

3.                  The application shall be subject to an annual staff review and the applicant shall provide a summary report of use by month so that the capacity of the use can be monitored;

 

4.                  The City Commission shall review the application in two years from the date of approval for compliance and may re-authorize the application;

 

5.                  The use will be subject to approval by the City Fire Department and the capacity shall be posted in accordance with the Uniform Fire Code as applicable;

 

6.                  Sunset of the application in 5 years requiring a new public hearing at the Planning Commission to continue the operation; and,

 

7.                  1-year review and development of a status report of the use by planning staff.

 

Motion carried unanimously.                                                                                                        (24)

Bill Tuttle, American Studies Teacher at Kansas University, thanked the City Commission for hearing their request.  The Langston Hughes Symposium was initiated for the purpose of honoring Langston Hughes.  He was best known as a poet and also a novelist, play writer, screenwriter and translator.  Hughes was Lawrence’s most famous native son.  Hughes was the poet whose words adorn Lawrence’s City Hall “We have tomorrow right before us like a flame.”   Hughes’ poetry lived on in Lawrence and was one of the reasons the City wanted to honor Langston Hughes.  Tuttle said Hughes spent his boyhood in Lawrence, Kansas, mainly living with his Grandmother, Mary Langston.  Mary Langston’s abolitionist roots ran deep and she expressed those roots to Langston Hughes.  Tuttle spoke of Hughes childhood.  For the next forty years Hughes produced poetry, prose, plays, movies and opera.  Often, he drew upon his experiences in Lawrence for inspiration.  Hughes died in 1967. Hughes received little recognition in his hometown, but his recognition has changed dramatically.  The International Symposium on February 7, 2002, will be an occasion to attract poets, performers and musicians as well as to provide an opportunity for Kansas University and Lawrence Public School students to attend this wonderful symposium.  The organizers of the Hughes Symposium met with the Arts of the Roundtable to talk about the community aspect of this celebration.  He said this was an important community building project and would bring significant public attention to our community, not just locally, but nationally and internationally.  He said they were requesting $7,000.00, but would like to request more money.  With the help of the City, they could make this event available to everyone in the City free of charge. 

Sandra Wickert, Community Relations Coordinator, Lawrence Public Library, said Langston Hughes spent a great deal of time in their library as a young boy.  They found that the Lawrence Public Library was never segregated; therefore, during the era of segregation, Hughes was always a welcomed patron.  She said the library’s policies on segregation helped Hughes as he grew older.  The library has a long history of supporting community events and community authors. 

Rundle said he was proud to be part of the contributing source for the Langston Hughes Symposium.

Kennedy said the City had gone through the budgeting process trying to be conservative with the public’s money, but a symposium of this nature, brings the community together and gave the City the chance to relish in their history.  To fund this kind of event was representative of how our community respected Lawrence’s past and insured it created a great history for Lawrence.

Dunfield said Lawrence was entering a period in which Lawrence history and awareness of our heritage was going to come into the limelight.  He said the Hobbs Park was a wonderful kickoff of events which included Langston Hughes.  All of these events could build upon one another.

Henry concurred with Dunfield.  He said it was a special time for Lawrence.

Hack said when speaking about community building, these events would allow an opportunity to continue that process.  She said she appreciated the time and commitment it took for this project.  She supported the project, particularly because of Lawrence schools.

            Moved by Hack, seconded by Henry, to fund the Langston Hughes Symposium in the amount of $7,000.00.  Motion carried unanimously.                                                                      (25)

            Mayor Rundle conducted a public hearing on the debt issuance for airport improvements. 

            David Corliss, Assistant City Manager, said federal law govern tax-exempt status on interest for debt the City issues.  The City was ready to issue debt for improvements to the airport, but in order for these improvements to be tax exempt, federal law required that the debt should be for a municipal purpose.  Because the City’s airport was a mixture of public and private use, federal law allowed for the tax-exempt status of the debt that was issued.  Federal law also required a public hearing before the City issued that debt.  The notice was for the entire cost of the federally funded project ($3,700,000.00).  The City planned to issue bonds for 10% of the project (the City’s share) or approximately $310,000.00.

            Moved by Kennedy, seconded by Dunfield, to close the public hearing.  Motion carried unanimously.                                                                                                                                           (26)

            David Corliss, Assistant City Manager, presented the staff report concerning the parking of large commercial vehicles in private residential driveways.  He said the staff report responded to general concerns.  He said this was not a law the Police Department enforced, but a land-use law.  In our Zoning Code, there was a prohibition of vehicles parking in off-street parking areas in residential districts up to ¾ ton rated capacity.  The Zoning Enforcement Officer would receive complaints for enforcement of this law and would respond by notifying the property owner in seeking compliance. 

            The City Commission concurred to receive the staff report.                                           (27)

            Mike Wildgen, City Manager,presented the proposal from Duncan/Associates for Assessment Study for Development of adequate Public Facilities Regulations.   He said the City Commission had an earlier study session which was the topic at that meeting.  The direction was to come back to the City Commission with more detail. 

            Linda Finger, Planning Director, said she had a question on the scope of services from Duncan/Associates about “all tasks are budgeted to include analyses of both Lawrence and Douglas County.  She asked if the City’s plan was to talk with Douglas County to see if they would be included because the County would benefit as well as the City.

            Wildgen said “yes.”  He thought it would be the appropriate direction to ask the County to be included.

            Kennedy said the City had a number of issues in front of them right now that would greatly impact the scope of services.  The City planned to update its water improvement schedules and also work with the County on determining some roadway issues.  He thought it would be advantageous to review this issue with the County to see it they would participate in the scope of work. 

            Hack said it seemed like the logical process to obtain a broad view of Lawrence and Douglas County. 

            Rundle said he was interested in the scope of services, but wanted to know all options.

            Dunfield said considering how much the City invested in infrastructure for the City which was a large portion of the City budget, he thought the City owed it to the public to ensure the City was making a wise investment.  He concurred that County involvement would be helpful.

            The City Commission concurred for the Mayor to sign a letter to the Chairman of the County Commission from staff concerning the County’s involvement with the Scope of Services.                                                                                                                                                      (28)

              Mike Wildgen, City Manager, presented the staff report regarding downtown bicycle parking issues.  He said Commissioner Dunfield brought this issue regarding downtown bicycle parking to the City Commission’s attention.  In response, staff did an inventory of existing parking areas and reviewed the current bicycle code related to parking.  He said it was clear the City could easily add bicycle parking spaces.       Kennedy said the City needed comment from both the Downtown Lawrence Association and the Bicycle Advisory Committee on the locations and code changes that were required.  He said downtown needed additional bicycle parking.

            Dawn Stender, 1204 Rhode Island, said the bicycle ordinance was vague.  The code needed to be interpreted.  She said she did not see a problem with bicycles parked at parking meters and was glad this issue was brought to the attention of the City Commission.

            Jordan Lerner, 810 Alabama, said he rides his bike frequently to work downtown and has been ticketed more than once.  He needed bicycle parking downtown as well as throughout the City.   In addition, he said the City could use more bike lanes. 

            Pat Weaver, Chair, Bicycle Advisory Committee, said their Advisory Committee meetings were open to the public which met on the third Tuesday at 5:15, in Lawrence Public Library.  She said for the bicyclist particularly, but anyone who has input on good locations for parking spaces in the downtown area or other areas in the community, was welcomed to come to the meetings. 

            Richard Heckler, 1217 Prospect, asked if warning citations would continue to be issued and, if so, how was “inadequately parked” interpreted.  The City needed additional parking for bicycles downtown.  Heckler said he has submitted ideas to the City Commission concerning bike racks in the downtown area.  He suggested the City and local shops could install bike racks as well as using parking meters for dual purposes. 

            Wildgen said the wording “inadequately parked” for example, was a bicycle parked on a meter and blocking access to the meter.  He said parking bicycles was a judgment decision.  In any case, he said the City needed to concentrate on education.  Wildgen said the map for the downtown garage would include bike-parking locations. 

            Dunfield said it was a good idea for the Bicycle Advisory Committee and Downtown Lawrence Association to look into this issue.  It seemed clear the City did not want bikes in landscaping areas or ways that possess a hazard to Lawrence citizens.  On the other hand, those parking meters were an economical way for the City to have bike parking on Massachusetts Street.  Dunfield said he did not understand or agree that locking bicycles to parking meter post was an inappropriate place to park bicycles.  He said the parking meters were a nice place to park bikes as long as it was done sensibly.  He said he recommended the language in the Ordinance needed to be changed, to be explicit that citizens could not chain bicycles to landscaping, but parking meters were not off-limits to bicycles.

            Henry said he liked the alternate wording for the bicycle citation.         

            Rundle said the City Commission has never ruled out parking devices on the public right-of-way, just the placement.  He concurred with Dunfield’s concern about parking bicycles at a parking meter.  The City Commission needed to address parking bicycles around sidewalk dining areas which obstructed right-of-way. 

            Hack said the City needed more bicycle racks and she did not have a problem with parking bicycles at parking meters.  She said there needed to be revised language in the bicycle code.   

            Kennedy said this was an issue that came down to common sense and respect for others that were trying to use the downtown.  He said he would like to hear recommendations from the Bicycle Advisory Committee and Downtown Lawrence.

            The City Commission concurred to receive the staff report regarding downtown bicycle parking issues.                                                                                                                                 (29)

            Kennedy asked for a report from City Inspectors in regards to 1201 East 13th.  He had a concern about the structure becoming a new construction project and the inspection process.

            Rundle said the Planning Commission has a special committee that responded to KDOT’s request for input on land-use and impacts on various trafficways.  They have asked to broaden their committee. 

            Moved by Kennedy, seconded by Henry, to adjourn at 7:47 p.m.   Motion carried unanimously.
