Three items that would move forward the Tallgrass 4th Addition housing in east Hays being built by Grow Hays/Heart of America will be voted on at Thursday's Hays City Commission meeting.
Commissioners will vote on a rezoning request, final plat for the 101 lots, and an engineering services agreement for the land near 22nd and Wheatland.
Also on the agenda are a bid award and construction engineering services agreement for reconstruction of 32nd/33rd Streets later this year.
Commissioners are expected to approve a request for annexation into the city by BEREXCO for a portion of their property at 800A Commerce Parkway.
As part of the North Vine Corridor improvements, the city of Hays ended up with a small remnant tract of property. The tract has no value to the city, and city staff is requesting that the commission authorize its transfer to Russ Pfannenstiel, the adjacent property owner of CERVS.
The following proposed appointments will be presented for approval:
• Hays Convention and Visitors Bureau Advisory Committee, Jeremy Gill – three-year term to expire on Feb. 13, 2028 (third term)
• Hays Housing Authority Board, Jo Ann Morse – four-year term to expire Feb. 13, 2029 (first term)
• Northwest Kansas Community Corrections and Juvenile Services Governing Board, Donnette Noble – two-year term to expire Feb. 1, 2027 (first term)
Commissioners will also hear monthly updates about community events in Hays and city department project progress reports.
The complete Jan. 23 agenda is available here.
The meeting starts at 4 p.m. in Hays City Hall.
