Amyx elected Lawrence mayor
By MIKE GREEN Staff Reporter
Mike Amyx was unanimously elected mayor by the Lawrence City Commission at its meeting last night.
Amyx was nominated by Commissioner Sandra Praeger, the only new member of the commission, who was sworn in with Amyx and Commissioner Howard Hill at the start of last night's meeting.
Praeger and Amyx were elected to four-year terms in last week's city election. Hill was elected to a two-year term.
In nominating Amyx for mayor, Praeager said his two years of experience on the commission made him the best person for the job.
After his election. Amyx said, There are a number of crucial decisions to be made during the
coming year, and I promise to help the commission work together to make these decisions."
The mayor serves a one-year term.
Following Amyx's election, a key to the city was presented to former commissioner Nancy Shontz. She became Amyx's election after serving four years.
"THIS IS A very small token in size." Amryx said while presenting the item. "I just put it on a key that is opened many doors. Her love for the city is second to none."
After Shontz received the key, she was given a standing ovation by the commissioners, city staff and the audience of about 60 in City Hall.
In another election, Commissioner Howard Hill was chosen vice mayor by the commission.
The commission then approved a revised site plan for a 42-apartment
addition to Stadium Apartments, 1123 Indiana St. The original site plan, which included a parking lot in front of the addition and two entrances to the lot from Mississippi Street, had been denied last week, 3-2.
IN DENYING THE site plan, commissioners had said that the proposed 42-apartment addition would be incompatible with the surrounding area and that the proposed parking plan would create a traffic hazard.
But the developers agreed to eliminate the proposed parking lot and plant trees and shrubs on the lawn instead. Price Banks, director of city planning, told the commission that he thought the removal of the parking lot would create a better appearance for the complex.
In other business, the commission voted to raise weekly salaries for commissioners from $20 to $40.
