Garden City Community College Front Door project moves forward
Ballantyne and trustees approved a 3.12 million expansion in 2004 to centralize enrollment and student services, with Finney County voters narrowly backing the plan 52 to 48. The two story building with a finished basement, adjacent to the administration building, was scaled back from a three story design to meet budget. Deboera and others praised the vote as a sign of community growth and college recruitment potential.
