We have received complaints of coyotes running in town. We have contacted Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks to find out how to get rid of them. They suggested that they are probably young coyotes and are looking for food. Please do not feed your pets outside and put your garbage in a covered container. If they can’t find food they will go elsewhere.
There has been some inquiry about “pit bull” dogs in town. The City still has an ordinance banning “pit bull” breeds and mixes. We would also like to remind citizens that each household is only allowed three dogs and three cats six months of age or older.
The Council would like to ask owners of golf carts to make sure there is an adult in the golf cart when being driven by minors under the age of 16. Thank you for your cooperation.
We would like to remind owners of go-karts to not drive them on city streets as they can’t be seen by drivers of other vehicles.
