At the last meeting, July 6th
At the Last Old Town NIA Meeting
At the last meeting, a community police officer updated us on happenings in the area.
Mayor Bunten and City Manager Bonaparte each briefly stopped by. It’s good to have their attention! The mayor briefly discusses next year’s budget and his ideas for strengthening the Code Compliance department, and the Narcotics unit of the police force. He also informed us that the Neighborhood Clean Up went so well, his office is helping plan a church-based Clean Up event. Watch for more details.
The Forestry Department is planting trees in our Target Area, to help improve its appearance.
The property at 1222 SW 10th had a proposed rezoning from O&I-1 back to M-3. We decided to oppose this, and to make out feelings known at the Planning Commission meeting. (We did so, and brokered a compromise with the current owner.)
The Planning Department is seeking input for the region’s long-range transportation plan. After some discussion, the neighborhood decided to support making Topeka more pedestrian and bicycle friendly, improving sidewalks, particularly to make them ADA compliant, and better service and outreach by Topeka Transit.
