Governor quizzed on costly Olathe patrol building
Gov. Robert F. Bennett denied knowledge of a proposed Olathe highway patrol building project costing reportedly 75 dollars per square foot. Col. Allen Rush said the project was planned years ago with state funds and would be shared by the patrol and the Kansas Motor Vehicle Department. The 3,900 square foot structure in Olathe is cited at 293000 dollars, with critics calling for cost scrutiny.
