City finds parks department home
The Kansan
A project to create a new home for the Newton Parks Department stalled in 2019 when construction costs grew beyond what the city was ready to commit to construction of a building.
At the time, the city chose to continue renting a facility for the department to house its self, and a seek a new solution. That solution presented its self this year, when the Kansas Department of Transportation began talking to the city about moving its maintenance facility on E. 12th Street. They are leaving that location. because over time all of their trucks and dump trucks that they use to spread salt have gotten larger and larger. . They can t get their trucks into their bays any longer, said Suzanne Loomis, director of public works for the city of Newton. . Our park mowers would fit just nicely in these bays.
