Retail pull factors show Douglas County loosing shoppers to Wyandotte

Lawrence area shoppers are taking dollars out of town as county tax pull factors fall. Douglas County's 2007 retail trade pull factor is 0.87, down from 0.97 and 0.99, costing as much as 44.3 million in annual taxable sales. Wyandotte posts 0.90, rising slightly, while Topeka’s Shawnee County remains strong at 1.14. Local officials warn leakage hurts city services and propose focusing on convenience markets in smaller towns like Eudora.

KU on Wheels faces deficit after bid rises to $2 million

KU on Wheels will cover a projected year deficit despite a revenue rise of about 280000 as bids exceed expectations. MV Transportation currently runs KU lanes and the five year contract aims to curb rising fuel costs and share management with the city and university. A nearly 3 increase in the student transportation fee is planned next year and joint proposals from the city and university may reduce expenses.
