LAG players don't limp a lot - they raise a lot. You're trying to say that he's often active post flop, right?

You mean to hero's left, giving him position on you, right?
Starting the hand with only 70BB I'd consider checking the flop.
Committing 30% of my stack against a player I've seen be very active post flop - and then folding - is not a winning strategy. It's a different story against a player with a timid disposition post flop.
It's actually OK
not to c-bet 100%, and even though this is a pretty dry flop, being OOP and having your c-bet called is likely the end of the hand for you, unless you bink on the turn - and even then the are some unpleasant RIO scenarios potentially making the hand not super-str8forward to play.
Alternatively, make your c-bet smaller.
On a dry flop there's really not much reason to bet > 3/4 pot against one opponent. If you had a set, AQ, KQ, or eventually QJs you'd want V to hang in, right?
With $30 in the pot ($3 rake) $16 should work as well as $24, and save you 4BBs.
