The DMV office in Liberal has already undergone some changes in recent times, with the biggest change being a change in operating hours and recently, the office saw some renovations done.
The renovation work started at the beginning of December, and according to David Harper, Director of Motor Vehicles, the work in the Liberal office was part of a statewide project that had been discussed last year.
“It had started about a year ago, we’d been talking about our driver’s license refresh project and started working with our regional managers so we could put together a list of offices that would need to be relocated or remodeled/rehabbed,” Harper said. “We’ve been working on a lot of offices throughout the state, so this has been on our radar since roughly last year and we got the Liberal office done recently. Statewide, as we got out and visited the offices across the state, it was very apparent there were several that weren’t performing fully to the standards we wanted, so that prompted the start of discussing the project. Then we started talking to our regional managers and some other employees and they let us know some of the things they thought should be done in order to improve not only the appearance but overall function. Then we took those ideas and drew up some plans and those things and we got to work.”
