Rising gas prices are bringing challenges to many people and businesses. For some under contract, it’s putting them in a tight spot. The City of Wichita has several contracts with local businesses to maintain their grounds. Those crews pay for gas to travel to sites and to fuel their equipment. One contractor says the price at the pump is significantly higher now than when they entered their contract. “You are going from two something a gallon up to three something a gallon,” said Tracy Smith with Kansas Turfworx. “It definitely impacts because when you put gasoline in mowers every day and then you gotta drive around the city to 30 plus sites.”
