Commissioners agree to sell rail yard rights to Santa Fe
By a Kansan reporter
City commissioners and a representative for Santa Fe Pacific Realty Corporation went to the bargaining table at last night's commission meeting to nail down a contract for rail yard rights in east Lawrence.
After considering proposals, commissioners agreed to sell reversionary rights to almost 12 acres between the 51st and 53rd streets near Delaware Street.
A deed signed in 1869 granted the city ownership of the yard if the company ever quit using the land. 4.7 acres to neighborhig companies.
John Bezzant, area sales manager for San Fe, offered the city $12,500.
Bezzant said the city's request for $20,000 plus city lawyer's fees was too high, but he increased his offer to $18,000.
Two commissioners, Shirley Martin-Smith and David Penny, said they would accept the offer. Commissioner Mike Rundle and Mayor Bob Schumm supported the city's offer. Because he owns property in the area, Commissioner Bob Walters did not vote on the matter.
To avoid stalled negotiations, Schumm proposed an offer of $20,000 with no added lawyer fees. Bezzant accepted for Santa Fe, and commissioners approved the sale. Commissioners granted Schumm authority to sign contracts necessary to complete the deal.
In other action, commissioners approved 4-1 an ordinance that would allow liquor consumption at the Riverfront Plaza. Penny voted against adding the plaza, which is on city property, to a list of city properties in which alcohol is allowed.
Plaza vendors must apply to the state if they wish to sell alcohol on the premises.
Youth pleads no contest in shooting; judge orders him to detention center
by Curtis Knapp
Kansan staff writer
A 17-year-old Lawrence youth pleaded no contest yesterday to the juvenile equivalent of first-degree assault and death of Geoffrey Railing on Jan. 14.
-
Douglas County District Judge Jean Shepherd found Nathan Shaman Dey to be a juvenile offender and ordered him to the youth detention center at Toppea. He will remain there until his sentencing. The detention center has the option to release Dey before that time.
"We strongly urge that they not take that action." Shepherd said.
Wells said that on Jan. 14, in Railing's apartment, 706 Arizona St. Dey and a group of young men got
The no contest plea signifies that Dey is not admitting guilt but is offering no defense. The penalty is treated the same as for a guilty plea.
Gerald Wells, Douglas County assistant district attorney, said the original second-degree murder charge against Dey was changed to a first-degree murder charge because the prosecution wanted juvenile. The prosecution wanted to charge Dey as an adult but changed course after a plea bargain.
into an argument about a radar detector that Railing wouldn't return to the others. Dey pointed a handgun at Railing, telling him to手 it over in shot Railing. Dey has insisted that he didn't mean to shoot Railing.
Wells said premeditation could not be used as the basis for the murder because there was insufficient evidence to prove that Dey intended to kill Railing. Aggravated robbery was used as the basis for the murder charge.
Dey committed aggravated robbery when he pointed the gun at Railing and told him to give up the radar detector, Wells said.
Wells said the prosecution decided not to try Dey as an adult for several reasons. Railing and Dey had been friends. The request for Dey to be convicted was due to the relationship between the Railing family and Dey.
Dey also would have to serve at least 18 months for involuntary manslaughter if he were tried as an adult. He would have to serve less time.
"It would have been possible that he would have served only four months," Wells said. "We weren't satisfied with that option."
