maybe it's because the gazette is printed in lawrence now and the deadline might be a little different?? they do have to print it and drive it down here right?
also, it was in the online paper pretty quickly, just not as quick as the kvoe sight. maybe it's because the city uses kvoe to broadcast warnings and other stuff and the gazette doesn't get it as quick?
wow, what people will complain about.....

my question is why the city never went back on the original builders or designers back years ago when they first knew the problems existed? most business construction has some kind of warranty doesn't it?

it is regulation (i think federal) that trains must sound their warning devices a certain number of times prior to a crossing.
this link should answer some of those questions.
http://ncseonline.org/NLE/CRSreports/07M...
their warning devices, like ambulances, fire trucks, and others, have to be loud enough to be heard, especially by the bass loving ppl who drive around the crossing arms thinking that they are annoying...any why are they all lit up like that?? omw...that light wakes all of us up too!!!
second, the city has a noise ordinance and a smoking ordinance. anybody has a right to sign a complaint against somebody not paying attention to those ordinances...so quit fussin and call the police...and then sign the complaint instead of not wanting anybody to know who called.
lastly, if you don't like the sounds of the city, move to the country. i guarantee that if you live in wichita, topeka, kc, or anywhere else with a population over 12, there is going to be noise.

its too bad that we dont post what other jobs around the area make. also folks, i wonder if those wanting to vote for lower city salaries consider that you usually get what you pay for. in other words, pay a fireman or cop what a fast food person makes and i doubt you'll get many quality applicants. i might suggest going to other city websites to find out what other cities employees make.

the property at least used to belong to white's tree service. the owner of white's passed away a year or two ago and that is when the lot went downhill. i'm not sure who it belongs to now.

gee, could it be because without the degree they would lose their jobs under the new CEO's plan to boot most of the LPN's and CNA's from their jobs?
