Moore aims to streamline Kansas water agencies amid campaign
Democratic lieutenant governor candidate John Moore told about 25 at a Garden City town hall that he wants to streamline water regulation, reducing the number of agencies from 18 to 21 and cut waste to fund education health care and economic development. He emphasized local government control, business experience from Cessna, and visiting communities to assess attracting firms. Moore spoke in Garden City after stops in Hays and Jetmore as part of a broader rollout with Kathleen Sebelius.
