Windsor project bid re approved for skylight work
The Windsor preservation alliance will advance a $924423 skylight completion as part of a broader restoration of the Forecourt Hotel. Don Harness says the project remains in the ballpark of prior estimates and that the Lois K Walls Foundation will redirect 180000 from lobby and cupola funding to the skylight. Tours of the hotel will continue monthly while stabilization proceeds, with an anticipated start by June subject to roofing work and bid outcomes.

Senate panel backs bill to repeal renewable energy standards
The Kansas Senate Utilities Committee approved Senate Bill 433 embedded into House Bill 2014 to repeal the states renewable portfolio standards. The measure would end the requirement that utilities source a portion of power from renewables, a target previously set at 20 percent by 2020 and 15 percent by 2015. Proponents argue the mandate is unnecessary and wind growth would continue without it.

Kansas Republicans resist Obama care reform push
A Houston group advocates Medicare style reform as a multistate compact. Most Kansas Republicans including Gov. Sam Brownback oppose the 2010 federal health care law championed by Barack Obama. Critics call the overhaul burdensome and harming the economy. Supporters note the compact bypasses presidential approval after Congress assent, though they doubt Senate control will occur this year.
