Park funds cut threaten Kansas park program
The Kansas Senate Ways and Means Committee trimmed the Kansas Park Authority budget from Gov Docking's 166 165 for park facilities at Lake Kanopolis to 51 265. The cut risks leaving the authority with only enough to operate an office, hindering the development of state parks and recreation facilities as Kansas expands leisure time and new projects like Pomona and Melvern reservoirs approach completion. The piece urges the Legislature to restore funding and support a functional park program nationwide.

Critics note impact on parking meters and urban flow as modern models fill streets.
