The community is invited to three public meetings on proposed revisions to the chapter of Lawrence city code that deals with conservation of historic resources. Chapter 22 of the city code creates the Lawrence Register of Historic Places and the Lawrence Historic Resources Commission, according to a news release from the city. “The Lawrence Register is the City’s official list of properties that represent all socioeconomic strata, residences, businesses and industries that illustrate the diversity that has been prevalent in Lawrence since its inception,” according to the release. “The chapter also sets design standards and criteria for the review of building and demolition permits on properties listed in the Lawrence Register or within 250 feet of a property listed on the Lawrence Register.”
