Residents seek zoning change in Oread area
A disagreement between Oread area residents and landlords about population density came up against last night's meeting of a subcommittee of the Lawrence-Douglas County Planning Commission.
The meeting was held to get ideas and opinions about the Oread Neighborhood Plan, and an assessment of and recommendations about the area.
The landlords opposed changes in the present residential-dormitory zoning, which allows the present population density in the neighborhood to increase.
Residents wanted the zoning changed to decrease or maintain the present density level. This would prevent the building of any new four-plexes in the area and landlords would have to replace houses with other single family houses.
Recommendations in the plan, which was prepared by the city-county planning department, were that the zoning be mixed. The high, medium and low density levels would then remain at their present levels and locations.
Coggins, a homeowner in the neighborhood, also said no one should allow property to run down because, when it did, values went down and fire hazards were
George Coggins, KU professor of law and a member of the Oread Neighborhood Association, said the plan did not go far enough and the density should be frozen or
He said Oread needed landlords who would care for the property. He said residents were concerned about maintaining neighborhood and the single homes.
John Lungstrum, an attorney for a group of about 90 Oread landlords, said his clients opposed decreasing the allowable population density. They favored other items in the plan that called for improved security, trash services and crime prevention.
Lungstrum said his clients had large financial investments in the Oread area and down-zoning would decrease the property value. Landlords would not be able to replace houses with apartment complexes if the neighborhood were down-zoned.
4 sites emerge as possibilities for Med branch
Four sites emerged yesterday as strong possibilities for the new home of the University of Kansas Medical Center's Young Women Chapel, Chancellor Archive R. Dykes said.
Dykes accompanied three members of the Kansas Board of Regents to Wichita for an inspection of five sites. One of the sites, grounds adjacent to the Veterans Administration house, because the committee was looking only at sites with existing buildings.
Jordan Haines, a member of the committee, said there would be no definite recommendation made about the sites until the Board meets with Education Committee meeting on Feb. 15.
we're in the process of getting some data on the sites," he said. "We particularly need data from these sites."
The Wichita branch currently is housed in E.B. A.L. Hospital, which sedgwick County owns and maintains. Last April the county commission offered to give the hospital to the house to the Wichita branch, and thus weiere it would raise the rent by about $50,000.
The Regents began to look for a new home for the Wichita branch because the state would have to pay for the care of about 30 long-term-care patients in E.B. Allen. The hospital is one of the sites under consideration.
The other sites are the 599 Building across from St. Francis Hospital, the College Hill Medical Tower near Wesley Medical Center, the Walker Building in downtown Wichita.
After Dykes makes a recommendation to the Regents, they will have to approve the site and send the recommendation to the State Department and Gov. John Cardin for final approval.
