Former City Commission has faith in replacements

Beaming faces packed the Lawrence City Commission chambers last night to usher in a new city hall where he will about the achievements of the old.
Newly elected Mayor Bob Walters, who was nominated by outgoing Mayor Shirley Martin-Smith, said he was a strong candidate in the potential of the new commission.
Martin-Smith commended the old commission on a job well done despite occasions when commissioners locked horns on several issues.
Newly elected mayor Bob Walters.
"We all know we've taken the heat for not getting along and getting festy sometimes," she said. "But we want to let that get in the way of the issues."
Martin-Smith, who received an honorary gavel for her service as mayor, said the commission's most important project was to raise two years included development of a sister-city program with Hiratsuka, Japan, the continued preservation of Lawrence neighborhoods and a city ethics policy, which the commission adopted two weeks ago.
Although a proposed circumferential highway system is still in the early stages of planning, Martin-Smith said the commission had made great strides toward completion of the project, including a successful
bond vote in November.
"This commission worked for two years to the point where we knew we would have roads or we wouldn't have roads," she said.
In a few parting words, former commissioners David Penny and Mike Rundle thanked those who had supported them and offered advice to new commissioners Bob Schulte and John Nablandian.
"I don't think we solved all the problems," Penny said. "And I hope the new commission will pick up where we left off."
Rundle told the commissioners to use their love for Lawrence as a guide in their decision-making.
"I suggest the commission do what is sometimes difficult to do, and do the right thing." he said.
Ray Humertt, city clerk, administers the oath to Nalandian, Schulte and Bob Schumm, who will serve, and one-year term, and one two-year term.
Schulte, who was elected vice mayor, said, "I'd just like to say welcome to the honeymoon period so I hope it lasts beyond the reception."
