Sewer district could affect landowners
Kansan staff writer
Idyllie acres of trees and grasses so often are turned into subdivisions full of houses and playgrounds these lands give the losses of landowners go unnoticed.
County commissioners approved a new sewer district west of Lawrence last night. This time, though, commissioners were able to blunt the blade of progress.
Recent changes in state laws allow the county to exclude certain properties; the three-square-mile district, chairman of county chairman Mike Amyx said.
"It used to be you just drew a circle
and everyone inside the line was included." he said.
Each landowner in the benefit district pays an equal share of the improvement costs for each acre. The estimated annual assessment is $1000 in amcre and will drop to less than $100 during a 20-year period.
If the goal is to enjoy the country instead of to speculate on land, you use, several landowners said last night.
"How can you say we are benefited when what we wanted was to enjoy the peace out there?" asked Jack who owns 30 acres within the district.
Even though Gaumnitz and other
landowners have the option to exclude their land from the district, they still were worried.
The county has the authority to exclude land from the district, but after the City of Lawrence annexes the county, it will force the land into the new district.
eeter said the assessment costs for its acres would be too high to hook a fence.
"The that is the problem," said Ron Teeter, who owns about 15 acres inside the district boundaries. No one knows what the city will do, he said.
land so that one acre would be included and the rest would be excluded.
After more than an hour of discussion, one landowner found a possible solution.
Gaumnitz asked if he could split his
"I'd much rather pay on one acre than on 30 acres," he said.

council he thought that would be
possible.
Hooking a house into the sewer reduces the possibility that the health authorities would force the land into a sewer. Hooking a house's septic tank developed problems.
Guamitz said he was encouraged, but that he also wanted to see if it would be possible to make an agreement with the city that would protect landowners from being forced into the district.
Students petition to keep director
By Cory S. Anderson
Kansan staff writer
A petition has been started to keep Marshall Jackson as permanent director of the Office of Minority Affairs.
John Lewis, organizer of the petition drive, said there were several reasons he thought Jackson should be permanent director. He said Jackson received his undergraduate and graduate degrees from the University of Kansas and had been a KU employee for almost 20 years.
Jackson was appointed interim director of the office in May 1989 after Rosita Dorsey resigned.
Also, Jackson is familiar with the administrative and academic system of the University and is qualified to deal with the problems of recruitment and retention of minority students, Lewis said.
"He's always there in the back-
round doing things," he said. "He shows a genuine interest."
Jackson has served as assistant director of the University placement center and assistant director of admissions. He worked 17 years in the admissions office and was acting director for one semester. He also was director of the Endowment Merit program.
Eladio Valdez, president of the Hispanic-American Leadership Organization, said he supported Jackson as director.
"I think we need stability at this point," he said. "With his experience and his attitude, he is the perfect person for the job."
Del Brinkman, vice chancellor for academic affairs, said he thought Jackson was a viable choice for the job.
"Based upon what I've seen and what I know about Marshall, I think he would be a strong candidate for
that appointment," Brinkman said. "A petition is the kind of thing that would be considered by the people involved in making that decision."
Caryl Smith, dean of student life,
said that a decision about whether a
search would be conducted probably
should not be made until next semester.
"We're always glad to hear student opinions," Smith said. "When the students turn the petition in, we will work hard including them in the whole process."
Jackson said he would be happy to help the students he had the support of the University.
"I would like to be director as long as I continue to get the support of faculty, staff and administration," Jackson said. "I really appreciate student support, and I'm very happy they feel they have someone in the office that is concerned with their needs."
Recycling
Continued from p. 1
Deirdre Goldfarb, co-chairman of the Enviors recycling committee, said a task force to organize and evaluate the University's pilot program would meet after the recycling bill was approved.
The task force will consist of representatives from Environs, Senate, Government and KU faculty, according to the original proposal for the program.
Akin said service at River City Recycling would change slightly, but the arrangements made in a proposed plan would remain the same. University would remain the same.
According to the contract, workers from the firm are to pick up cans daily from specified buildings on campus. In return, Akin and Hebert will give Student Senate 5 percent of the revenue obtained from recycling.
Akin said that, under the revised management, the owners of River City Recycling would no longer pay for recyclables brought to the firm.
