    Manhattan city commission canceled, agenda moved to Jan. 29

    By KMAN Staff on January 22, 2019 Local News, Manhattan

    The Manhattan City Commission will not meet for their bimonthly legislative session due to icy conditions on roads affecting Riley, Geary and Pottawatomie Counties that resulted in numerous accidents and road closures.

    Commissioners were set to consider a request by the Manhattan Area Housing Partnership’s request to purchase 19 lots in Lee Mill Village. The MAHP intends to use the land to develop affordable senior-living duplexes. If approved, as part of the deal the city would cover outstanding special assessment taxes on the lots — amounting to $190,000 — as well as waive utility connection and building fees.

    Also on their agenda was an ordinance that would approve a $3.5 million expansion to the Manhattan Conference Center, which a concurrent 0.5 percent increase to the city’s transient guest tax would help finance.

    Manhattan Mayor Mike Dodson and City Manager Ron Fehr were on Tuesday’s edition of KMAN’s In Focus to preview the meeting.

    As a result of the cancellation, the items will be considered on Tuesday, Jan. 29 at 7:30 p.m. following the scheduled work session. The meetings are held in City Hall. They can also be viewed on Cox Cable Channel 3 or online at the city’s website.
