PUBLIC AGENDA
A REQUEST was received from Lavelle Frick, Secretary -Treasurer of the North Salina
Businessmen's Association to know the status of lighting on 81 By-pass and North Ninth
Street from West Ash to 1-70.
The City Engineer said the delay is simply a matter of the delivery of the materials.
The City Manager said authorization for the lighting of North Ninth Street from
Pacific to 1-70 was mailed to Kansas Power and Light Company on June 2, 1972, and that they
are hopeful of being able to start about the middle of November.
The City Manager added that there was some discussion by the Commission of not
doing Broadway from Ninth Street to Ash in 1972, but to give consideration to lighting
Crawford from Broadway to 1-35. He said Mr. Pogue and Mr. White, of KP&L, feel there are
some other critical areas which should receive a higher priority than on Crawford from
Broadway to 1-35, primarily around the schools, and Crawford Street from Broadway East
to Ohio Street. He added that as far as the staff, KP&L, and the budget are concerned,
the Commissioners are free to check the 1973 proposals and tell us which areas they think
should have the highest priority.
