County keeps truck traffic rule. landowners seek exemption
County commissioners debated whether the no through trucks rule on Farmland Road should allow landowners to move equipment within their property. County counselor Burgardt said the rule cannot be changed. enforcement remains discretionary. They discussed a possible east side EMS fire station and shared facility with Garden City Fire. Four officials seek reinstatement of 5 percent of their 2016 budgets for transparency. Sam Hands reappointed to the Finney County EDC board.
