City approves bids on airport
By JENNIFER LISTON Staff Reporter
The Lawrence City Commission last night accepted two bids for improvements at the municipal airport in north Lawrence.
The Total Electric Construction Co. of Shawnee submitted the low bid for electrical work and Hamm Asphalt, Inc., of Lawrence submitted the low bid for the paving and building of a new taxiway.
A $1.5 million Federal Aviation Administration grant will be used to pay for 90 percent of the improvements, and sharing money will provide the rest.
The $200,000 remaining from the grant will be spent for a parking area for the event.
COMMISSIONERS ALSO approved the issuance of $280,000 in notes to pay for a fire station and equipment in West Lawrence.

way stop signs at the intersection of Clinton Parkway and Kasold Drive. Clinton Parkway becomes 23rd Street east of Iowa Street.
Clark said that with the new shopping center, tenants of the Gatehouse and Park 25 apartments would have flooding without the storm sewer.
"In a way, it's too bad because it's the
same story as it happened, along
Clinton Parkway. Clark is."
    Wait, is that a comma after "Clinton Parkway"? No.
    Is it a colon? Yes.
    So the sentence is:
    "In a way, it's too bad because it's the
same story as it happened, along Clinton Parkway. Clark is."
The commission also approved four-
Commissioners also approved a 45 mph speed zone on the parkway.
COMMISSIONERS REQUESTED investigation of charges that the East Lawnbridge Improvement Association is seeking to have an administrator for a $20 commercial membership.
