The City of Newton wants to do some trading with the state. The Kansas Department of Transportation wants to build a new facility near U.S. Highway 50 and Anderson. It needs city infrastructure hookups. he city needs a maintenance building for the park department, and the one KDOT’s leaving is large and near Centennial Park at 1010 E 12th St. So the city proposed a trade – hook up costs for the KDOT building. And it looks like KDOT is going to accept. “This has building set up for maintenance and equipment storage and those types of functions more usable for us from a park maintenance standpoint,” City engineer Suzanne Loomis said.
