Commission's actions praised
By VALOREE ARMSTRONG
Staff writer
The Lawrence City Commission was both congratulated for a job well done and chided for not being tough enough by an Oread neighborhood resident last night.
David Katzman, 1642 Tennessee St. thanked commissioners for offering building codes by ordering a new addition to a neighboring house be turned out.
Katzman had come before the commission Oct. 13 to complain that his neighbor converted a house, 1620 Tennessee St., into a triplex without city approval. He was pleased with the city's quick action.
The city gave Merle Rothwell, owner of the house, until Nov. 4 to remove improvements, such as parapet and fireplace. The date tenants in the house without the
city's approval.
But, Katzman said, "The battle's not yet won."
Katzman said last night he had a complaint about parking on the property.
The commission should prosecute Rothwell for putting in the parking without permission, Katzman said, or force him to remove the gravel base he put down in the back yard for the parking.
Katzman cautioned the commission against issuing permits for work already done without mandatory penalties.
"I'm asking for justice," he said, arguing that issuing permits after the fact would encourage people to learn more about knowing they would not suffer for it.
Commissioner Sandra Praeger defended the city's procedures.
stressing that most residents obey the laws.
When laws are broken, Praeger said. "We try to solve the problem without creating undo animosity on either side."
Praeger said offenders, at times, could say legitimately that they didn't know about city regulations.
Rothwell now has submitted a plan to the planning commission for improvements. The City Commission doesn't usually review plans for triposs, but it said last night that it wanted to see Rothwell's plan anyway.
Katzman, who has lived in Oread since 1970, said he was the last single-family owner who lived on his property in the neighborhood. Many homes in the area are rented to KU students.

THINK AGAIN
Most college students have a tendency to believe they do not have a drinking problem because "drinking is the way of life on campus" or, "that problem only happens to someone else." If you think you have a drinking problem. NOW is the time to take a closer look at your behavior. Don't be afraid to ask for help.
