Derby’s Field Station: Dinosaurs will be getting some new neighbors in the city’s STAR bond district shortly, as 2020 brought about a big bang in terms of development. Within the span of a few months, the Derby City Council approved amendments to the STAR bond project agreement allowing for the development of two new attractions earlier this year – with both projecting to be open for business in 2021. On Jan. 28, the city council approved the first amendment to the STAR bond agreement allowing for the development of the Derby Sports Zone – an attraction with an indoor/outdoor sports center and restaurant that would offer activities such as sand volleyball, yard games badminton, paddle ball and more. “In Wichita, as far as I know in that market, I don’t know that anybody else is doing badminton, paddle ball, spike ball and those kinds of things,” said Developer Rick Worner of National Realty Advisors.
