No decision on Docking Building future remains unclear
A Kansas legislative panel reviewed the Docking State Office Building plans and removed all demolition and renovation options from the five year budget, signaling little action for years as leadership changes reduce chances for a decision. The administration proposes demolishing or relocating the power plant, but lawmakers blocked funding without new approval, while agencies inch toward private leases and fewer staff remaining in the building.
