Miami County commissioners met Sept. 1 for their fifth week of study sessions listening to expert feedback on various topics related to establishing a city within the county. The testimony phase continues through early September before county commissioners deliberate on incorporation of third class city Golden, Kan. It requires a 4-0 vote by the county commission. Residents in a nine square mile radius in Northwest Miami County north of Hillsdale Lake bordering Southern Johnson County have petitioned a proposal for the city of Golden. They hope to keep Edgerton’s intermodal warehouses known as Logistics Park from being built on land used for rural residential living and agriculture.
