Randall Davis, owner of Colony Woods, tried to relieve some of the congestion by expanding lots on the east and south sides of the complex in September. But he was criticized by Lawrence City Commissioners, who said he added the parking without filing a revised site plan before the construction.
David Gunter, a city planner, said that the complex filed a site plan requesting additional parking in two areas.
"In the central drive of the complex, there are a couple of sizeable green areas" he said, "and they
wanted to convert that to parking."
want to convert that 18 parking. Guntert说 the plan also proposed to take three foot strips, the extreme south side of the complex and change an area currently used for parallel parking into 90-degree parking.
"The added paving would have created more parking in the area and still have the required aisle width," he said.
The commission approved new parking at Colony Woods with some provisions in October, one of them calling for marked fire lanes.
It did not approve a plan to add parking in the center of the complex. Guntert said the reason for the denial was based on drainage considerations.
Linda Finger, a city planner, said that nothing new had been done since then. "I think the complex does not want to follow through because of conditions placed on the plan by the City Commission." she said.
Gunter said that on some occasions, a site plan is approved and owners decide not to act on it.
Collier said he saw the situation differently. "The city may say they approved the request with conditions," he said, "but we say they denied the request.
"Think of it as if Colony Woods said they would like to build two parking spaces, and the city said they would approve it if the complex built only one," Collister said.
and a Colony Woods resident, said the threat of the towing zone made it even harder to park now. "A lot of people just parked wherever they could," he said. "It makes it a lot more difficult to find a space."

Collister said he was unaware of what would happen next. "I don't know if the owners plan to do anything right now; I'm not privy to plans," he said. "But I think the owners will do whatever they can to improve the situation."
Guenther said there was one good thing about parking at Colony Woods. "At least the spaces are wide. At least they are compared to the ones in the yellow zones on campus," she said.
Hall residents want say on set-up
Oliver Hall, like McCollum, Ellsworth and Hashinger residence halls, houses both men and women. In the other co-ed halls, men and women share floors but live in separate wings. In Oliver Hall, men and women live on separate floors. The different set-up in Oliver Hall exists to give students more choices in living arrangements, said Ken Stoner, director of student housing.
Oliver Hall government again is planning to poll residents about the hall's coef status, Mark Briggs, vice president of Oliver, said Tuesday.
University students living in Oliver Hall may yet get a chance to tell others how they want to live.
A poll would give Oliver Hall residents an opportunity to tell officials whether they preferred to continue the present arrangement or to have
The poll of Oliver residents that was proposed last semester was not conducted as planned. Instead, the Oliver Hall government gave priority to its budget and to other, more pressing problems, Briggs said.

Briggs was in charge of last semester's proposed survey. He said the hall government put the poll on hold because there was not enough interest, time or manpower to get the job done at term's end.
"I fully intend to make sure they'll have their say," Briggs said of his constituents.
Briggs said he intended to have a new poll completed within the next month.
