Thank you, Eric, for requesting a L.A.N. discussion on City staff
lack of transparency, and their usurping major policy decisions away
from the Commission. The public seems to be with us on this,

<div>Hi, I would like to
share a few thoughts
re our agenda
item, "Identify Issues
we expect to address
this year", and
background for the
"Opportunity Zone"
agenda item. Thanks,
Eric</div>

<div>Regarding our
agenda item, "Identify
Issues we expect to
address this year", I
think we are facing a
<u>crisis of democracy</u> in
Lawrence, and should
address it.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>In spite of having
a great City
Commission which
should be making key
decisions with
neighborhood and
resident input, city
employees have taken
over decisionmaking on
many key issues, with
no public notice until
the decision is a fait
accompli.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Three examples:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>1, The city started
dumping nitrates into
the Kansas River
without a vote by the
City Commission. The
City Commission did
not know it was
underway until a
citizen asked about it
at a City Commission
meeting</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>2, City employees
decided not to accept
an opportunity for the
city to use
all-renewable wind
energy and save huge
amounts of money,
apparently without
even notifying the
City Commission of the
option. <u><a

</div>
<div>3, Without notice
to or a vote of the
City Commission, or
any involvement with
landowners and
residents, but in
coordination with
non-resident "economic
development partners",
city employees caused
all of East Lawrence,
all of Brook Creek,
and part of the Barker
neighborhood to become
part of an Opportunity
Zone.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>To me, there are <i>at
least </i>two key
issues here, <u>sharing information
with residents,</u>
and <u>providing
opportunities for

cases, we are getting
neither. I think the
LAN should consider
taking the lead on
addressing this issue,
and demanding that the

key decisions, with

organizations.</div>
