Regents seek changes to college repair plan
Higher education leaders push for more state funding to tackle long delayed maintenance at Kansas universities. The Board of Regents seeks an additional 84.4 million beyond last year’s 380 million package, with 50 campus projects already under way and private contributions possible through tax credits. Fort Hays State University and Kansas State University projects are highlighted, including the Frankenstein Room safety upgrades. Fort Hays president Edward Hammond urges debt payoff from a 1990s program to free up 15 million for repairs.

Brownback Opposes Immigration Additions to Farm Bill
U S Senator Sam Brownback said adding immigration provisions to the five year farm bill would doom the legislation and would oppose such additions while backing separate ag worker measures. He noted current programs bring in 40000 workers yearly against a market need of 500000, urging border control before reform. He spoke with Kansas farm groups in Wichita and discussed presidential endorsement plans.

Kansas officials project 2007 08 tax collections at 5.9 billion, up 2.3 percent from April estimates, with 2009 tax receipts exceeding 6 billion as the economy strengthens. The forecast notes risks from softer sales tax and limited room for discretionary spending under Gov Sebelius and the Legislature.
