Black Hills seeks 17.6 percent gas rate hike in Kansas
Black Hills Energy proposes raising residential natural gas bills about 176 percent in Kansas, a move that would add roughly $11 per month for an average user, with a public hearing Tuesday in Wichita. About 120000 Kansas customers would be affected as the company cites declining per-customer usage, higher insurance costs, and infrastructure investments. The Kansas Corporation Commission hearing at the Hughes Metropolitan Complex begins at 6 p.m. An online option requires advance registration by noon Monday, with YouTube broadcast and written comments due by June 20. The commission plans a final order by August 29.

Kansas tax credit bill would end affordable housing credits
The measure would stop the 4 percent tax credit after 2025 and cap total annual credits at 8.8 million, contrasting with about 30 million issued recently. Lawmakers in a divided Legislature backed the bill with bipartisan support, while critics warned of reduced funding for Lawrence projects and housing affordability.
