Kansas student body VP Zach George resigns for DC job
Zach George announced his resignation as University of Kansas student body vice president to take a position with the National Association of Counties in Washington, D C, starting in late March. The KU senior and 2011 Ottawa High School graduate faced impeachment talks last year after disputes over diversity and campus inclusivity amid national tensions. He previously interned for U S Rep Lynn Jenkins and for Blaine Finch, and had considered roles on Capitol Hill or with the National League of Cities after his term.

County transfers station issues addressed in report
Holmes said staffing delays before October 2014 caused late reporting at the transfer station. Current director John Hiatt has about two years in place and reporting is now up to date. Water quality is not a concern, and testing is regular near Tally Creek. EPA penalties will be paid from transfer station fees, with a 40 day public comment period before finalization.
