City partners with Efficiency Kansas

The City of Wellington has partnered with "Efficiency Kansas", a program which offers low cost loans for the purpose of making energy efficient improvement to your home. The loan, provided through the State, is paid back through your utility bill. For more information, visit the City's website at www.cityofwellington.net and click on the "Efficiency Kansas" logo.

City Council to consider concealed-carry

The City of Wellington will be seeking an Attorney General's Opinion as to whether or not Councilmembers with "concealed carry permits" are allowed to take weapons with them to City Hall. City Attorney Mike Brown will be working on a letter explaining the request for interpretation of the State's concealed carry statute.

Projects continue

The Roundabout and Fair Street renovations continue, and "B" Street is expected to be completed by tomorrow. To keep abreast of all ongoing and pending projects, visit the City's website at www.cityofwellington.net.

2012 Budget being discussed

Budget discussions for the year 2012 are underway with the Council reviewing the Capital Improvement Plan and Capital Outlay this evening. While the budget process is far from over, I've posted a preview of the 2012 Capital Improvement Plan on my website at www.johntracy.net. I'll add more information as it becomes available. A Public Hearing will be held for public comment on the proposed budget sometime in August before the final budget is adopted.
