KDOT officials say transfers haven’t derailed the TWORKS ten year transportation plan, though critics warn reliance on the highway fund to balance the budget is risky and could limit future road projects.

Closure of historic St James AME church leaves lasting impact
Rev Verdell Taylor Jr notes the church is the foundation for youth growth while Evands Coleman recalls St James Baptist’s long arc from 2000s decline to 2012 closure. Founded in the 1860s and located at 647 Maple St, it merged with St Luke after members dwindled. Donald Shepard, baptized there, joined St Luke as part of the consolidation. The community reflects on painful, enduring change.
