City expands limits to extend services and growth
City officials argue expansion is needed as capacity reaches limits in western northern and southern districts. Annexation focuses on sewer districts along 23rd Street and south and west of town to connect to city systems, enabling water police fire services as growth proceeds. The Comprehensive Plan supports bringing future urbanization into the corporate area to protect property owners and regulate development. Kansas restricts wide annexations, so expansion proceeds piecemeal.
