Save Century II loses in bid at state Legislature to protect Wichita buildings Dion Lefler, The Wichita Eagle
Feb. 24 After a lengthy hearing in Topeka, the state Legislature won t be taking action to save Century II and the former Wichita downtown library.
The Save Century II group argued their case for state intervention before the House Local Government Committee.
Save Century II members Celeste Racette, John Todd, Karl Peterjohn and Walt Chappell were asking lawmakers to require a binding public election before any decisions are made to tear down the historic buildings to replace them with a sweeping redevelopment of the Arkansas River front where they stand.

John Todd describes himself as a community activist. He helped gather 17,000 signatures in a petition drive to force a public vote on the future of Century II. A judge later dismissed the petition after the city challenged it in court.
Todd said the group is not opposed to progress, but insists on good government. I don t believe that the Save Century II people are trying to impede anything, but we re interested in transparency, he said. And since they are city-owned buildings, will likely involve city incentives and financing of some sort like they did when they voted to build the first Century II I believe that [people] have the right to have a say in these things.
