Reorganization Underway for Finney County Drainage District 1
Drainage District No 1, idle for nearly four decades, meets at 7 p m in the Finney County Administrative building to elect a board and set a budget amid rising rainfall. The district covers land between Garden City and Holcomb north of the railroad, valued about 22 5 million dollars, with potential new ditches to move drainage to the river. The district previously taxed members by acreage, but a new law now allows equal per member assessments to fund projects and prompted renewed effort to address surface drainage and property development concerns.
