Association helps Oread area
By RAY FORMANEK Staff Reporter
The Oread Neighborhood Association, which combats crime in the area between 9th and 16th streets between Massachusetts and Michigan to improve means of financing its services, Nan Harper, ONA director, said recently.
Since July 1798 ONA has been funded by a grant from the Law Enforcement Assistance Administration, which supports for community anti-creep projects.
Since it's founding the Association has helped the neighborhood wrestle with its neighbors.
Clinton's opening attracts campers
Lone Star and Perry lakes have attracted a flood of campers this summer, but officials at both lakes have noticed a welcome decline of visitors because of the opening of Clinton Lake.
"Traffic has been down some, but this will help ease our load," Kurt Reece said. "The jury pardon ranger said. He also gives it give and improve the quality of our car camps."
Perry Lake, 15 miles north of Lawrence, has facilities that have been overused because of the number of jumpers pumped at the lake in past years, he said.
The Army Corps of Engineers built the 12,200 acre lake that has 160 miles of shore line. Plans are underway for a new shower facility and camping area, but their completion dates are unknown. Reed said.
Harry Winters, 30-year Lone Star resident, owns the Lake's concession stand. He said he noticed a drop in visitors to the lake.
"I hope Clinton Lake recreation facility will help us by bringing campers into the area. Some campers don't like to camp in crowded situations so they will come to a smaller lake like Lope Star," said Winters.
Lone Star, four miles southwest of Lawrence and a short distance from Clinton, was built from 1933 to 36 by the Civilian Conservation Corps. Last spring a crew acce- ted to a dam to drain because of a leak in the valve tower, Winters said, not because of a leak in the dam as was first feared. The Douglas County Commission is working on a five-year improvement package for repairing the leak and upgrading recreation services with equipment from Environmental Protection Agency.
Clinton Lake opened July 5 with swimming, swimming, and boating facilities.
Three years ago the area, east of the University had the highest crime rate in the city. To help prevent crimes the police put security cameras in the neighborhood. Harper said.
The ONA concentrated on street automobile vanillation and apartment the
RESIDENTIAL BURGLARIES decreased from 20 reported cases in April, May and June 1979 to 13 reported cases in August 1980, in a reduction of 35 percent.
Although crime prevention has been the target of the group's activities, the area's rezoning has been another concern.
"Much of the neighborhood is now zoned dormitory and residential and many property owners bought land in the area with the idea of putting highrise dorms on the lots and getting rich," she said.
To protect older homes, Harper said, the group tried to persuade the City Commission to rezone the area from dormitory-residential classification to RM-3, which forbids more than three separate living units on a lot.
"These efforts will continue," she said.
The ONA also taught homeowners to make their homes more secure, she said.
RESIDENTS PAY $1 a year in dues
to be an ONA member. They are eligible to use the "tool pool" provided by the group to make home improvements.
ONA has created a strong community identification and awareness of crime, she said.
Harper said ONA is raising money to keep the projects going. Churches, federal agencies, foundations and proacademic alums are being provided for donations.
She said projects such as the tool pool, anti-crime program and rental of ONA's lawnmower, rototiller and snowblower would probably continue.
Harper said she was trying to convince the University to provide students with space to store valuables while on vacation, a service ONA has provided.
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT funds granted by the federal government will be used by ONA to continue its monthly newsletter.
"Early in September," Harper said, "the group will have its blitz.
ONA supporters tell new residents about the neighborhood and invite them to join. She said the campaign would include a pot luck supper, dedication of a spark at 16th and Louisiana Streets and a clean-up of the neighborhood.
"People can make a difference," Harper said, "right in your own neighborhood. You don't have to run for Congress to change things."
