City weighs land purchase for hotel parking and historic site
Dresher notes five lots near the block may be bought for 1950 and expire mid October. A 125000 grant from the Kansas Department of Economic Development could fund 1900 of the land purchase while the city ponders municipal parking needs. Barker laments potential destruction of a historic Washburn church, arguing it should be preserved and not torn down. A Kansas State Historical Society official says the building has not been proposed for the National Register, and eligibility could yield only a nonbinding opinion from the state review board.

County Commission Meeting Updates on Roads and Projects
County officials discussed reconditioning a road with more coarse material after rejecting a chip and seal plan. The Bo Mag project will incur no charge for the county, while Rantoul will pay about 8000 dollars to recondition a city street. Planning commission members' attendance was raised, with potential action if unresponsive. Christmas lights on the courthouse were approved with half funding raised. A Richmond area bridge delay due to federal financing was noted, with possible steps to advance its priority.
