Extension given on billboards
RY ANN LANGENFELD
Staff Reporter
After lengthy discussion the Lawrence City Commission voted 4-1 last night to give a variance to the owner of 11 billboards in Lawrence.
the variance, which allows the firm to keep its billcards until Dec 31, was issued to allow the commissioners time to represent the representatives of the firm. Martin Outdoor.
A city ordinance written in 1974, which takes effect Oct. 22, bans billboards within the Lawrence city limits.
The commissioners, excluding Don Binnn who voted against the time extension, said attempts to negotiate a bailout were a risk to down less scrip and should be resumed.
Commissioners Bob Schumm and Marci Francisco said they had not been involved in previous discussions with the firm—
they had taken place before they took office.
REPRESENTATIVES OF Martin Outdoor have met with the city commission several times in the last two years to ensure that they are allowed to keep its billboards in lawrence.
Mayor Barkley Clark said he was concerned that the ordinance would eliminate a business from the community.
Tom Martin, owner of the firm, said that Lawrence was the firm's third largest market, and that the occupancy rate of the billboards in Lawrence was 90 percent.
"Lawrence is an important part of our family-owned business," he said. "I would not have come here five different times if it was not."
Will Adams, head of the Institute for Social Research at William Jewell College, Liberty, Mo., presented the results of a survey of 300 Lawrence residents that he
POSSIBLE REGULATIONS that might be negotiated before the end of the year would include a limitation on the number and size of billboards.
"I want it clear," Schumm said, "that if a compromise can't be reached, the billboards will come down at the end of the year."
In other business related to the sign ordinance, the commissioners approved variances for five businesses and denied a variance for another business at state outside the RiB's Box 740, low 83.
The Big Boy statue is considered to be a second ground sign for the business. Only one ground sign per business is allowed by the ordinance.
Rusty's North Side JGA, Second and Lincoln streets, znd Kansas Color Press, Inc., 2201 Haskell Ave., were given
variances for roof-mounted signs, which the commissioners said did not destroy the roof line of the buildings.
Westview Motel, 1313 W. Sixth St., was given a variance for its sign that clears the ground by seven feet rather than the required eight feet.
DOUGLAS COUNTY State Bank, Ninth and Kentucky streets, was given a variance for its time and temperature limits. The footage by 45 square feet and maximum height by five and a half feet. The commissioners said the sign was a public
Lawrence Bank and Trust Co., 641 Massachusetts St. was given a variance for two 15-square-foot wall plaques on its east wall and a roof-mounted sign on the north wall of the building, with the stipulation that no more signs be put on the building.
