Bond dispute grips Kearny county over town bonds
In Topeka and Kearny county a heated struggle over a 4000 bond plan escalates as citizens seek to stop the issue. Ex county treasurer Corcoran visits, Auditor Cole weighs proper bond form while county officials contend the debt may not be a bond and bond issuance could be void. The fight traces to township origins and a US district court ruling voiding prior bonds, with efforts under a new bond law to refund or defend the indebtedness amid county reorganization and local officials pressuring the bond sale. A petition garners broad support among voters, with county attorney and commissioners steering the case through the legal maze.
