Spring Hill councilman’s refusal to attend meetings leaves city at standstill

City business in Spring Hill, Kansas is at a standstill. A political stalemate has ensued as the councilman who lost his election bid to become mayor is refusing to come to meetings. The man who voters elected mayor in November isn’t there either, he now lives in Florida. Steve Owen may not have showed up for a third straight meeting after storming off January 10, but many of his supporters in the odd political battle did. Thursday night’s meeting started like any other with an invocation and reciting of the Pledge of Allegiance. But you could tell by all the empty council seats no city business would get done in Spring Hill Kansas once again.
