The Hays City Commission this afternoon will consider setting dates for public hearings of two requested economic development incentives for a planned 24/7 Travel Plaza and convenience store north of Interstate 70.
Commissioners will also vote on two rezoning requests on East 27th Street.
The first request is to rezone property at 2460 E. 27th St. from an agricultural district to a light industrial district. L&A Enterprises owns the property. The owner wants the zoning change to expand services.
The second rezoning request is for the adjacent property at 2470 E. 27th St., owned by Josh Ziegler, to change the designation from general commercial district to light industrial district. Ziegler owns and operates T.S.B. Storage on the property.
A report from Holly Dickman, water conservation specialist, will update the city's water conservation program and results from 2025.
Eric Burks, president of Fort Hays Tech North Central and Diana Baumann, vice-president of finance and Hays operations for Fort Hays Tech North Central, will present the Big Creek Technical Training Center annual report.
The complete Feb. 26 agenda is available here.
The meeting begins at 4 p.m. in Hays City Hall, 1507 Main.
