Construction hampers drainage
Runoff from Mount Oread floods some parts of city
By JOHN BENNER
Staff writer
During storms, Eleanor Woodyard, 2204 Alabama St., sometimes has to keep an eye out for people to keep them from hurting themselves in the street near her house.
When the sewers fill, she said,
the manhole cover pops off and
the exposed hole could be dangerous to
pedestrians and motorists.
Woodyard said the water, which has gotten as high as eight inches in the street, didn't keep motorists off the road.
"People don't stop driving here," she said. "They just drive faster."
Flooding in the neighborhoods south of Mount Oread, on Naismith Drive and on 23rd Street results from KU construction and other building in Lawrence, say Woodyard, other residents and city officials.
In 1983, Lawrence added an ordinance to the city code that was designed to ease flooding in the city, said Teresa Gardner, city engineer.
Gardner said the ordinance required new city construction projects to detain water to keep it from draining any faster than it drained before the construction.
However, because the city considers University property beyond its jurisdiction, KU construction has continued without detaining excess flood water, said Price Banks, city planning director.
Gardner also cited runoff from private construction projects on land south of Mount Oread and construction on campus for backing up storm water on Naismith Drive and on 23rd Street.

She said water flowing off Mount Oread to the south was responsible for the collapse of two roads and the weakening of two others that cross Naismith Drive between 19th and 23rd streets. The city recently allocated more than $400,000 for repairs of the street and of a broken water main in the area.
"The ordinance requiring water detention is a relatively new policy," Gardner said. "We feel the University needs to incorporate detention into new projects."
"We also need to do that in the rest of the city. The University is not 100 percent to blame."

The current conditions of the state have not yet slowed down the planning process for the University's fiscal 1988 budget. Zimmerman said.
"The water got in between the culverts and the road surface and eroded away the dirt," Gardner said.

"We have not made a recommendation yet," he said. "Hopefully, we will get all of that ironed out soon."
Former KU football coach Don Fambrough confirmed yesterday that some players during his tenure had used drugs but denied a former player's accusation that he had ignored the problem.
Fambrough, now a field representative for Senate Majority Leader Bob Dole, was contacted by telephone yesterday in Stockton on the first leg of a two-day tour of western Kansas.
"I'm not trying to deny that while I was there we didn't have those problems, because we did," he said. "I was not so much aware of (cocaine) as I was of other things, but yes, we had some drug-related problems.
Fambrough said some players on the team had used various drugs while he was head coach, from 1979 to 1982, but he denied that the problem was widespread.

Before the KU budget was sent to the Budget Division, the Board of Regents requested KU to make several adjustments. One of the requests concerned the money budgeted for new and improved programs.
But they did not know they were violating a KU guideline The University Events Committee prohibits selling on campus unless the activity or event benefits the University community and is under the sponsorship of a registered organization or
One area in which the Regents did not suggest a change was the 8 percent increase the University is seeking for unclassified salaries, which include faculty members, Zimmerman said.
The University, in its tentative budget, requested $7,548,732 for 19 new and improved programs during fiscal year 1988, the 1987-88 academic year, he said. The Regents reduced that by almost 59 percent, authorizing the University to seek $3,113,393 for creating only eight programs.
"That is still our official request to the Board of Regents," he said.
Overall, the Regents allowed the University to seek a total general use fund of $125,301.974 for fiscal year 1988, he said.
