Garnett Expects Little Impact From KC Plant Fire
Garnett city officials say the Kansas City power plant fire will have little effect. Garnett relies mainly on large utilities for power and uses its own generators for peak demand and emergencies. The city has two megawatts of peaking power and one megawatt of regular power daily from the plant, but Doran notes no outages are expected unless Garnett's generators fail.

Judge allows teacher to stay on Topeka school board
A Shawnee County judge ruled that Linda Baker, a third grade teacher elected to USD 501 Topeka Board of Education, may remain a board member though a 1973 law bans certain district employees from serving. The ruling found the statute does not list teachers, but the district policy tying compensation to employment is unenforceable. USD 501 has 30 days to appeal.
