Weigand Seeks Election to Franklin County Post
Franklin County Commissioner Thomas Weigand of Ottawa announced at a Richmond gathering his plan to seek election to the post filling the late Russell Savage’s term. His campaign emphasizes service with focus on roads taxes and the rail-trail project amid detour traffic and gravel road wear concerns. He cites tough road maintenance choices and notes landowner opposition to the trail issue. Bids for Anderson County Courthouse repairs were opened but the commission will review low bid details and replacement costs. The project requires Kansas State Historical Society approval due to the building’s historic status, delaying final specifications and re submissions. Low bidder Mid Continental Restoration of Fort Scott proposed $7,800 for step repair and tuck-pointing.
