County road system debate prompts petition drive in Coffey County
Coffey County faces a potential shift from township to county road management. A Jan 11 commission resolution can be overturned by an election if residents collect 450 to 465 signatures within 90 days. The county would then maintain about 1,146 miles of roads. Meanwhile, Jennie Youngblood will conduct seven church school workshops in Ottawa district March 10 to 12, visiting multiple towns.

Sen. John Simpson and Sen. Arnold Berman voiced concerns about candor and finances during Senate hearings. Enrollment notices for belly dancing classes at the Youth Center in Ottawa follow.
