Lenexa mayor directs city staff to draft non-discrimination ordinance for council discussion this fall
Following an executive session with the city’s attorney regarding analysis of potential legal issues related to the kinds of non-discrimination ordinances adopted by nearby Johnson County cities, Lenexa Mayor Mike Boehm on Tuesday directed city staff to prepare a draft NDO for consideration by the governing body in the coming months.
In May, the city passed a non-binding resolution affirming its opposition to discrimination of any kind. At the time, the governing body indicated that it planned to wait to see whether cases pending before the U.S. Supreme Court provided any clarity about federal protections from discrimination based on sexual orientation or gender identity. During a council meeting this spring, Boehm said he believed a statewide law would provide more consistency and ensure there were no enforcement challenges at the city level.

Merriam council accepts study on Irene B. French center, directs staff to look into feasibility to save 1911 portion of building
The Merriam city council has directed city staff to look into the feasibility and costs of saving the 1911 portion of the Irene B. French Community Center.
Over the past several months, Merriam city leaders, residents and business owners have been considering options for the century-old historic building at 5701 Merriam Drive.
In its final report to the Merriam city council on Monday, the 5701 Merriam Drive Steering Committee recommended saving as much of the 1911 portion of the Irene B. French Community Center as possible. That option would involve tearing down the rest of the center, creating open space and re-using the 1911 portion of the building in some way, at a cost estimate of $3,050,000 to $4,250,000.

They are next to ponds around the city, in residential neighborhoods and along the sidewalks next to the Arkansas River. Wherever they go they aren’t unnoticed by most citizens, especially the feces they leave behind.
“I occasionally have to dodge it,” said Alex Beck, a jogger on the sidewalks next to the Arkansas River. “I just kind of work around it, I’m used to it by now.”

Stocks Slide After Recession Warnings
Stocks sank Wednesday after the bond market threw up one of its last remaining warning flags on the economy.
The yield on the 10-year Treasury briefly dropped below the two-year Treasury’s yield Wednesday morning. It’s rare for short-term yields to rise above longer-term ones, and when it happens, market watchers call it “an inverted yield curve” and brace for the possibility of a recession hitting in a year or two.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped as much as 475 points in the first few minutes of trading before recouping some of its losses.

SEK Recycling Center looks to match grant for new styrofoam processor
Keeping Southeast Kansas green isn’t an easy job, but it’s a meaningful one for a recycling company.
The Southeast Kansas Recycling Center recently was awarded a grant for a new styrofoam processor. But the issue is, they need to provide a $5,000 match for the grant, and that’s money they don’t have.
As commodity pricing continues to plummet, the longevity of the recycling center is unknown. And, being one of the only non-profit recycling centers in the Midwest, some are hoping they stick around for a while.

What the 2- vs 10-year Treasury yield curve inversion means
The yield on two-year U.S. Treasury notes was higher than the yield on the 10-year for a while Wednesday, marking the first time since June 2007 this curve has inverted. Many market participants see this as a sign of a coming recession in the next year or two. Other parts of the curve — the 3-month to 10-year and the 2- to 5-year — inverted earlier this year and remain inverted.
“The significant decline in rates has led to meaningful inversion in key parts of the interest rate curve — historically these types of inversions have signaled that economic weakness and a recession is forthcoming over the next 18 months,” according to Brian Rehling, co-head of global fixed income strategy for Wells Fargo Investment Institute. “From a bond market perspective, risks in the market are to the downside.”

On the Clock….. Construction firm faces deadline for 10th and Grant project
To use a sports analogy, Morgan Brothers Construction is down two touchdowns late in the fourth quarter with no timeouts and they don’t even have the ball. Morgan Brothers is the construction firm that is doing the construction work at 10th and Grant Streets in Great Bend.
The project to widen the intersection started in March with an 85-day construction contract which would have had the work done by the end of July. But after one delay due to springtime rains, construction was delayed again recently after the company told the city that materials for the project had been back ordered. Now Morgan Brothers has less than 20-days to complete the project before they begin getting fined for liquidated damages.

Main yield curve nearly inverts as 10-year yield tops 2-year rate by just 2 basis points
The yield on the benchmark 10-year Treasury note threatened to break below that of the 2-year U.S. note on Tuesday as investors rushed toward safe haven assets amid global growth concerns.
The traditionally watched 2-year and 10-year Treasury curve is just 2 basis points away from inversion, a phenomenon heralded by many as a recession indicator. Investors are now demanding higher interest rates on short-term debt than they are longer term debt, a phenomena known as an “inverted yield curve.”
The yield on the benchmark 10-year Treasury note rose to 1.685%, just above that on the 2-year security at 1.665% and bringing the spread between the two yields to just 2 basis points. It narrowed to a fraction of 1 basis point earlier in the session. A basis point is one hundredth of one percent.

A new year for Wichita Public Schools accompanies changes coming with children’s safety in mind. The district is using a grant from The State of Kansas to pay for improvements.

If you think JoCo’s I-35 construction traffic is bad now, just wait till next spring
The traffic headache on Interstate 35 in Johnson County should get better in a matter of months, when the southbound ramp to Overland Parkway/U.S. 69 reopens. But commuters can prepare for a migraine this spring.
The ramp closed this month for a $3.7 million bridge repair project, which should be completed by December, according to the Kansas Department of Transportation. The construction is sending some 72,000 vehicles on a detour each day.
But I-35 drivers won’t get too much of a break after that project is completed.

Backers of lawsuit against Neosho County wind farm waiting on legal process
Forty-five landowners, some of whom live in the project footprint, filed suit against Neosho Ridge Wind LLC in July in Neosho County District Court. The civil suit states the project “will constitute a nuisance with respect to the plaintiffs and their property interests. It will be an annoyance and a use of property which gives offense to or endangers the life or health or obstructs the reasonable and comfortable use and enjoyment of the property of the plaintiffs.”
The project opponents say they aren’t necessarily against wind energy, but they do oppose the project in what they think is an area too heavily populated for the windmills that will tower over 600 feet tall.

Lawrence City Commission to discuss proposal to charge for disposable plastic and paper bags
City leaders will soon discuss a proposal to charge people for disposable grocery and shopping bags in an effort to reduce waste.
As part of its study session Tuesday, the Lawrence City Commission will discuss the Sustainability Advisory Board’s recommendation that the city develop an ordinance that would charge a 16-cent fee per bag upon checkout for both single-use plastic and paper bags, but would exempt some types of bags.

Plan to boost voter turnout in Kansas didn’t turn out as planned
A law aimed at increasing voter turnout by moving local elections from the spring to the fall got its first real test in Tuesday’s election for Wichita mayor — and results were mixed at best.
In the 2015 mayoral primary, the last spring election, turnout was a fairly dismal 9.8 percent. This time around, it was only slightly better when a flurry of late-arriving mail ballots inched it up to an even 10 percent.
Sedgwick County Election Commissioner Tabitha Lehman said things had seemed to be going better and she was surprised when the turnout ended up being almost exactly the same as four years ago.

How low can they go? Municipal bond yields inch down toward record levels
Issuers and buyers will both be watching the direction yields take this week as the 30-year municipal bond slips beneath the 2% threshold and 10-year heads toward record-low territory.
On Monday, the 10-year general obligation on Refinitiv Municipal Market Data’s AAA scale fell to 1.31%, two basis points away from the record low while the 30-year muni yield dropped to 1.97%, four basis points above the record low. The record low yield for the 10-year on MMD’s scale is 1.29%, which was set on June 27, 2016; the record low on the 30-year AAA GO is 1.93%, hit on July 6, 2016.
Writing in a weekly Court Street Group Research market commentary, George Friedlander noted the recent drop in bond yields was due to several factors, such as geo-political factors like Sino-U.S. trade tensions and the weakening of economies around the world.

Contaminant in Auburn district drinking water exceeds EPA standards
Each of the three times it was tested this year, water provided by Auburn Rural Water District No. 1 near S.W. 61st and Hoch Road was found to be out of compliance with Environmental Protection Agency standards for a contaminant called haloacetic acids.
That district receives its water from the city of Topeka. The city blames this year’s abnormally high contaminant levels at Auburn and in other cities across Kansas on excessive rains and releases of water into the Kansas River from upstream reservoirs.
The Auburn water is still safe to drink, and customers do not need to switch to bottled water, district manager Mike Dawson said in a letter he mailed out Wednesday.

How One City Saved $5 Million by Routing School Buses with an Algorithm
The yellow school bus has remained largely unchanged since it first debuted in 1939. But while the buses look the same, their routes have grown infinitely more complex in the past 80 years, as the number of students, schools, and road systems grow and change.
Drawing bus routes for Boston Public Schools involves challenges unique to the city. BPS allows parents to select their child’s school from a list of about ten options, in an effort to reduce inequalities that might result from isolating students to their neighborhoods. While this represents a greater level of choice than most cities, the resulting bus routes can be meandering and complicated.
