Weather Quirk Threatens Wheat in 1986 Kansas
Ray Hemman reports agriculture officials warn rain and warm weather since fall could hurt the 1986 Kansas hard red winter wheat crop. Extended dry spells, late planting, and early dormancy threaten top growth and cold snaps could freeze weak plants, with western areas faring better due to rainfall.

Planning Commission discusses traffic fixes and mobile home setbacks
The Planning Commission designated a area as hazardous and noted 18 accidents near McDonald's in 1985 with 10 adjacent to the restaurant. Discussions covered a shared cost U turn at Ken's Barbecue, concrete islands to block exits, and a Wal Mart exit on 23rd Street. They invited Wickliff & Company for further study. The panel approved a zoning amendment allowing a 10 foot backyard setback for existing mobile home lots under 150 feet deep, with Clarence Koch abstaining. Additional actions included public hearing set for April 1 on the North Ottawa Neighborhood Plan, rezoning Park Antiques sites, and sign ordinance work. A moment of silence was asked for Bruce Spears, a former planning commissioner.
