Should Kansas keep a state printing plant in operation
The Kansas Legislature faces whether to keep the 65 year old State Printing Plant at 10th and Jackson or abolish the operation. Costs to build a new plant have risen, with previous plans showing a $1,285,000 project in 1985, and constitutionality limits hinder removal of the office. Proposals to relocate to the National Guard Arsenal site clash with deed restrictions, and calls to end state printing gain traction as private printers in Topeka and Kansas offer alternatives.
