Commission hears plight of flood victims
By Katie Greenwald Kansan staff writer
North Lawrence residents and business owners last night voiced their concerns to the City Commission about the city's handling of recent flooding.
rusty Thomas, North Lawrence resident and vice president of State Radiator, Inc. , 613 N. Second St., told commissioners that she appreciated the way the city staff handled the disaster. She said she was glad that Commissioner Bo Moody and other county officials attended a meeting that residents held Monday night at Johnny's Tavern, 401 N. Second St.
"It gave residents and business owners an opportunity to vent some of their frustration that had been buildup over the weekend in a more positive manner." Thomas said.
Thomas said she wanted to make the commissioners aware of issues that concerned North Lawrence residents, such as needed improvements of drainage systems. She also said she thought the city should do something to keep people up to date about emergency situations.
In response, Mayor John Nalbandan decided to hold briefings at 10 a.m. every day until the current situation is resolved. Nalbandan said he also planned to do that for future emergency situations.
Thomas said the meetings would help business owners know exactly what was happening.
"There were so many rumors float
ing around that we needed to separate the fact from the fiction," she said.
Others were not as pleased with the city's handling of the situation.
Gerald Pine, manager of Howard Pine's Garden Center and Green Houses, 1320 N. Third St., said his business was fortunate. Though the waters spared his business, Pine said he was unhappy about how the city was dealing with the situation.
He said that if the city was going to allow the construction of multi-million dollar buildings, such as a shopping mall, then the drainage problems could not continue.
"We can't have this kind of flooding," he said. "Right now, we've got a dirty section of town, a stinking, dirty section. The grass rots. The sewage
seeps into the flood waters.'
"We didn't get a lot of answers," he said.
Frank Male, a North Lawrence resident, also was unhappy with what he thought was slow action on the city's part. He said he thought the meeting at Johnny's Tavern was unsuccessful.
Mike Wildgen, city manager, said there was nothing the city could do to make people feel better.
"They're mad and they're upset, and there's nothing we can say that's going to change that," he said.
Wildgen also said that people had to realize that North Lawrence was not the only place with problems.
"They had one of the worst problems, but we had problems all over town," he said.
