New board members appointed as
Garnett gears for housing push
PARKSIDE PLACE PIC
Commissioners hold
to course to press
board for more action
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT City commissioners pushed ahead Tuesday
night with two new appointments to the Garnett Housing
Authority Board they hope
will press for a more proactive approach toward developing housing opportunities in
the city, previous to receiving
word later in the week that
grant funding to pay for a
$10,000 housing feasibility had
been approved.
Commissioners appointed
Mike Burns, CEO of AuBurn
Pharmacies in Garnett, and
his Garnett store pharmacist
Casey Smith, filling two vacancies on the five-member board.
Those appointments as well as
recent discussions about the
quest for local housing needs
also resulted in the countys
economic development committee being granted $10,000
by the Throckmorton-Riser
Foundation to pay for a com-
munity housing study an
initiative for which city commissioners had pressed the former housing board to undertake over much of the past two
years but which had so far not
been approached.
Housing authority director
Karlyn Hulett told commissioners in a tense exchange
at Tuesdays Garnett commission meeting that her board
had repeatedly relayed to the
commissioners and city staff
that board members favored
an expansion, but wanted to
wait until the housing author-
itys existing debt of more
than $500,000 had been retired.
Hulett also said that a waiting
list for units at either the two
federally-subsidized Parkside
Place apartment buildings or
at the private pay Park Plaza
North did not necessarily signify a shortage of housing,
because sometimes list members didnt take vacancies
when they actually became
available.
Commissioner Jody Cole
reiterated statements she

Rural Housing Incentive Districts provide reimbursement for costs of
housing development on the ground, or upper floors of vintage buildings
Plan captures increase
in property taxes to pay
back rural developers

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW 1-3-2023 / DANE HICKS
Garnetts Parkside Place senior living centers may be the focus of
expansion plans after data from an upcoming community housing
survey is analyzed.
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
TOPEKA A bill passed by
the 2021 Kansas Legislature
to create Rural Housing
Incentive Districts may pro-
vide options for Garnett and
other Anderson County towns
seeking to develop housing
locally and contains special
provisions to reimburse costs
to renovate upper floor areas
of vintage downtown buildings
into apartments or condos.
RHID is a program designed
to aid developers in building
housing within rural communities by directing the incremental gain in property taxes
from developed properties into
either public bond payments
or reimbursement of developer costs. RHID captures the
incremental increase in real
property taxes created by a
housing development project
for up to 25 years funds that
can be used to develop new
infrastructure for a housing
development or to pay off public or private debt.
In order to take advantage
of the incentive, property must
be within a redevelopment
Getting to the heart of the matter
Garnett strategy group looks
toward third phase of Heart
& Soul with Jan. 27 meeting
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT A community planning
organization which has been gathering
opinion data from city residents and
others for nearly two years will move
toward executing action plans based on
its findings over the coming months,
and is planning a January 27 meeting
to start developing the action phase of
its project.
Growing Garnett Heart & Soul has
been an ongoing project since January
of 2020 when organizer Paula Scott
began gathering information at the
Garnett Womens Fair just before the
Covid shutdown. Following a template
developed by the Vermont-based Orton
Family Foundation, Garnetts program
was the first in Kansas and the only program nationwide to be launched during
the pandemic, Scott said. Gathering and
processing the opinions and goals of
community members has been laborious but the objective is simple: ask
members of the public what they love
about their community, then make decisions and take on projects that pursue
those values.
The project involves four phases of
information gathering and processing
followed by action planning and execution. Scott said at this point, after having
gathered its data and winnowed it into
Heart & Soul statements that define
what matters most to residents and
reflect what they love about Garnett, the
Heart & Soul project is ready
to gather residents, businesses, students and organizations
to develop and prioritize the
action items and create an
overall action plan for the city.
The January 27 meeting, set
for 6 p.m. at the Archer Room
of the Garnett Public Library,
will be facilitated by Heart
& Soul Senior Director Sara
Lightner, wholl outline the
next steps for the community
in the H&S planning process.
We want to find out how
do we preserve whats important to people, and what ideas
do they have for the future,
Scott told Garnett City
Commissioners in a report at
Tuesdays city commission
meeting.
Garnetts Heart & Soul project is run by private individuals and is not affiliated with any
governmental unit, although
Scott has provided city leaders

Man sentenced for
bogus autopsies
ALMA A Kansas man has
been sentenced to 12 months
in jail and 12 months of probation on six criminal charges
related to providing autopsy services in Wabaunsee
County, Kansas Attorney
General Derek Schmidt said
today.
Shawn Parcells, 43, who
has resided in Leawood and
Topeka, was sentenced last
month by Wabaunsee County
District Court Judge Jeffrey
Elder to serve 12 months in
the Wabaunsee County Jail
for each of three counts of
misdemeanor criminal desecration, to be served concurrently and 12 months of probation for each of three counts
of felony theft. Judge Elder
ordered Parcells to serve the
sentence for the three theft
convictions
concurrently
with his 69-month federal
prison sentence on a related
felony wire fraud conviction.
The sentences for the criminal
desecration convictions will
run consecutive to the federal prison sentence, meaning
Parcells will serve 12 months
in the county jail after his
release from federal custody.
Parcells had been previously sentenced in September
in the U.S. District Court for
the District of Kansas on one
count of wire fraud based on
similar conduct.
Parcells was convicted on

Kansas is one of 18 states to see a decline in population between July 2021 and July 2022
Folks are leaving, say
census figures, but why
and headed where?
BY DAVID HICKS
THE SENTINEL
TOPEKA The Sunflower
State is alone in population
loss in the region. The closest
Midwestern state on the list is
Illinois.
Negative domestic migration, or more U.S. residents
leaving a state than moving
in, is a primary cause of the
decline.
Census figures for states
bordering Kansas for the period illustrate the phenomenon:
Kansas had a net loss of 7,409
residents to negative domestic
migration, resulting in a net
population loss of nearly 800.
Colorados population increase
of more than 28,000 includes
over 5,000 due to domestic
migration.
Missouri added a little over
8,000 residents, of which 5,000
was due to domestic migration.
Oklahomas population jumped
more than 28,000 and almost of
it came from domestic migration.
Nebraska is the only neigh-
boring state that had negative
migration, losing 4,270, but still
managed a population increase
of about 4,000 people.
A states economic climate,
including tax policy and job
opportunities, are major factors in decisions to relocate.
Kiplinger uses state income
tax rates, average combined
state and local sales tax levies,
and median property tax rates
to judge Tax-Friendly States
for Middle-Class Families
and Tax-Friendly States for
Retirees, and finds Kansas
wanting in both cases. Kansas
is the sixth-worst for middle-class families and the thirdworst for retirees.
Interestingly,
Nebraska
is also found to be unfriendly to retirees, possibly a reason for its negative domestic
migration; and nearby Iowa
joins Kansas on Kiplingers
unfriendly list for both middle-class families and retirees.
The Hawkeye State saw nearly
7,300 residents move out of the
state during the period studied, which is part of the reason that Iowa Governor Kim
Reynolds signed a bill in 2022 to

the state charges on November
4, 2021, after a three-day trial
in Wabaunsee County District
Court. The jury found that
Parcells unlawfully obtained
money from Wabaunsee County
to perform autopsies in three
cases. In addition, Parcells had
unauthorized control of the
bodies and performed autopsies in three instances without
a pathologist performing the
autopsies, a violation of state
law. The crimes took place in
2014 and 2015.
The criminal case was
prosecuted by former Deputy
Attorney General Steven
Karrer and Deputy Attorney
General Stacy Edwards of the
Fraud and Abuse Litigation
Division of Schmidts office,
and
Wabaunsee
County
Attorney Tim Liesmann.
In a separate civil case
filed by the attorney general
in Shawnee County District
Court, Parcells and three corporate entities he controlled
were permanently banned in
August from doing business
in Kansas and ordered to pay
more than $250,000 in restitution to 82 consumers related
to private autopsy services,
more than $49,000 in damages to Wabaunsee County and
$400,000 in civil penalties for
violating the Kansas Consumer
Protection Act and the Kansas
False Claims Act.
The civil case against

JULY 22, 1938 – DECEMBER 21, 2022
Betty J. Lybarger, age 84 of
Garnett, Kansas, passed away
on Wednesday, December 21,
2022.
Betty Joan
Turner was
born on July
22, 1938, at
Westphalia,
Kansas. She
was the first
of two chilLybarger
dren
born
to Herbert
and Treva
M. (Strickler) Turner. Betty
graduated from Colony High
School with the class of 1955.
Betty was united in marriage
to Dale Lybarger on June 25,
1955, in Garnett, Kansas. This
union was blessed with three
children, Janice, Alan and
David. In 1957 Dale and Betty
moved to their first of three
homes on Cleveland Avenue
in Garnett, where Betty would
spend the next 67 years. Betty
was a homemaker in addition
to keeping the books for Dale's
Mobil Oil Consigned Agency.
In 1980, they formed Lybarger
Oil Inc, where Betty served
as the Secretary/Treasurer
until she retired in 2000. Betty
made countless connections
with community members
from her involvement in her
many civic and volunteer
activities, among the most
notable were with the Garnett
Jaycees, Lions Club, Hospital
Auxiliary, and the Senior
Center. She was a devoted
member of the Garnett First
United Methodist Church,
where she served many different roles, from Sunday School
to the church board.
Betty's favorite role was
being a mother and grand-
mother. She made sure to
keep their family as her first
priority. Birthdays, holidays
and any other special occasion
were celebrated with a tailored
meal for the guest of honor.
Potato soup on Christmas Eve,
chicken and noodles and tacos,
are some of the favorite family traditions that will live on
along with family circle prayer
before meals. Meals and desserts were typically accompanied by homemade ice cream
that Betty made from the recipe she had memorized decades
earlier. She especially enjoyed
the times spent playing board/
card games with family and
friends.
She was preceded in death
by her parents, and her husband, Dale Lybarger on
October 10, 2008.
Betty is survived by her
three children, six grandchildren and three great
grandchildren, Janice Epp

84, of Garnett, Kansas, passed
away on Monday, December 26,

November 14,
1938, at his
grandmother
Browns
house
in
Richmond,
Holloran
Kansas
to
M.C. Bud
and
Irene
(Brown) Holloran. He was the
third of four children and the
only son. Charlie attended Holy
Angels School in Garnett and
graduated from Garnett High
School with the class of 1956.
On August 27, 1959, Charlie
was united in marriage to Mary
Lynn Doran at Holy Angels
Catholic Church in Garnett,
and they celebrated 63 years
together.

Patricks Day he proudly wore
green and celebrated his Irish

and a smile on his face were his
twelve grandchildren and eleven great grandchildren, who
called him Poe.

business subjects and coaching
at Westphalia High School and
Waterville High School, which
surprised everyone because

A decision of the will
In Mark 12:28-31 one of the
teachers of the law ask Jesus
a question. Of all the commandments, which is the most
important? Jesus answers,
Hear, O Israel, the Lord our
God, the Lord is one. Love the
Lord your God with all your
heart and all your soul and
with all your mind and with
all your strength. The second is this: Love your neighbor as yourself. There is no
commandment greater than
these. Today we are going to
focus on the second commandment in the verse: love your
neighbor as yourself.
How is this possible with
so many different personalities, lifestyles and beliefs? The
word love in this context has
nothing to do with feelings,
emotions, or even liking another person. It is a decision of
the will. To make this even
more difficult I have never met
anyone who is completely satisfied with their own life. So
loving your neighbor as yourself can be problematic. That
is why feelings and emotions
do not enter into this. They are
WEEKLY DEVOTIONAL
BY DAVID BILDERBACK
based on the circumstances we
are subject to at the time. So
how can we love someone in
this context we may not like?
– Treat them fairly
– Show them respect
– Be honest with them
– Keep your word
– Show them that in spite of
your differences you still care
about them as a person.
We choose to love people
showing them the same love
and grace that God showed
each of us when he sent his
Son to save us from our sins.
A decision of the will based
on this teaching is much more
difficult to carry out than one
based on feelings and it befits
the sacrifice Jesus made for
each of us on the cross.

OPINION
Attack of the education governor
Four years after Laura Kelly anointed herself
the education governor of Kansas during her
2018 campaign, her record of achievement in that
regard has us praying she doesnt declare herself
the oxygen governor for her next term.
Indeed, while the results of Kellys first term
might win her attaboys as the education union
and administration governor, data on student performance shows the sash for student achievement
governor rightly eludes her. Consider the following data gathered from the Kansas Department of
Education on student performance over Kellys
term:
In math over all grades, 29 percent of students
were below grade level in 2018; 34 percent below
grade in 2022. 33 percent were deemed proficient
in 2018, but that figure dropped to 29 percent in
2022.
The same percentages apply across all grades
in English Language Arts for below grade level
performance in the same years. But the drop was
steeper for those ranking proficient at 37 percent
in 2018 down to 32 percent in 2022.
And the problems get worse in the younger
grades. At the 10th grade level students in Kansas
overall dropped from 24 percent to 20 percent proficient in math from 2018-2022 that means two in
ten. By last year nearly half 46 percent were
below grade level in math (a decline from 44 percent in 2018). One in four was proficient in English,
and 2022 showed a 6 percentage point increase (3339) in students below grade level in these critical
communication skills.
These arent measurements of advanced skills
for people expected to execute a moon launch, mind
you this is the basic blocking and tackling of societal function; the skills needed to balance checkbooks and determine angles and compile a resume
without spelling and sounding like Pennsylvania
Senator John Fetterman. And Kansas kids arent
getting better at those skills. While Kansas students are in academic freefall, the education governor has busied herself supporting transgender
preference policies, losing $400 million in Kansas
unemployment funds to computer hackers and
bragging about all the money the states higher tax
rates have siphoned out of your pockets.
Kelly never talks about education achievement and for good reason on her watch its been
a disaster. Like the education lobbyists, Kelly
only talks about money and the education system.
For the KNEA and other educrats who donate so
generously to Kelly and other Democrat political
campaigns, the focus is always on the system.
But the achievement of the students the actual
outcomes of all those dollars? Well, thats somebody elses problem.
In fact its clear what priority parents hold on
REVIEW COMMENTARY
DANE HICKS, Publisher
the education lobbys tick list. In November when
@NEAToday tweeted Educators love their students and know better than anyone what they need
to learn and to thrive the inner themes of the eduacracy were illustrated pretty plainly. The KNEA
never disavowed that tweet or the message that
the system, not parents or families are the
key to thriving kids.
That message isnt lost on parents, which may
be a partial explanation for the fact Kansas public
schools again under Kellys vaunted stewardship have lost more than 8,000 students since
before the pandemic according to figures released
in December. As achievement has declined and
Kansas schools have shown themselves to be more
and more expensive but so disproportionately
interested in social emotional learning priorities,
many Kansas parents have simply said enough.
And who can blame them?
Of course Kellys marketing moniker was really
aimed as a dig against Republican Sam Darth
Brownback and the perception among the eduacracy that Kansas schools had to go back to quill pens
and oil lamps during Brownbacks years as governor. In reality, funding for education increased
every year during Brownbacks tenure except for
2016, when a partial payment to the state retirement system was deferred.
Under the education governor however
money has flowed from local districts. While student achievement plummeted, the KSDE shows
superintendent pay increased overall 15 percent
between 2018 and 2022 compared to an 11 percent
increase for teachers.
And who can forget the education governor
closed schools and torpedoed a year of learning for
Kansas students on advice that was never backed
by proof or science.
The big worry for Kansans as her new term
begins is just what Laura Kelly will advocate
next.###

If Bryan Kohberger is found guilty, the public

him should hold some responsibility. This crap
never stops because our public schools are sewers for producing highly dysfunctional adults

Hi there. I think it would be great under That
was Then column to also list some history
from 50 or 60 years ago, maybe even 100 years
ago. I know that used to be done and I think that
would be a nice addition. Thank you.
Will we pay heed to the economic lessons of 2022?
What lessons should we learn from 2022 for
2023 and beyond?
Last January, few predicted an economic
train wreck. Some of us knew that a trainload
of stimulus-induced consumer purchasing
power was rolling with a full head of inflation
-fueling steam. But the second train (Russias
war on Ukraine , which destroyed lives,
homes, and cities and dramatically reduced
global energy and grain market supply) had
not left the station.
Finally unleashed and unmasked from
COVID-19 restrictions, everyone across
America had reasons for optimism. Real GDP
growth for 2021 was pacing at a rip-roaring
5.7%, the January unemployment rate was
just 4.0%, and there were more than 11 million
job openings beckoning the 6.55 million unemployed to come to work. Consumers had stimulus money jingling in their pockets. Yes, it was
hard to find a new car, housing was in short
supply, and it wasnt easy to locate builders
to help with home improvements. The result?
Our money did not get spent quickly. There
was a lot of what would later be called excess
savings.
A few economists of note who were focused
on the astounding growth in the money supply
(all those stimulus checks) and its historic
relationship with inflation sounded the alarm.
Johns Hopkins Universitys Steve Hanke and
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
BRUCE YANDLE, GEORGE MASON UNIVERSITY
Florida State Universitys James Gwartney,
for example, believed high inflation was inevitable. But the its only transitory contingent, progressives, and new monetary theory
thinkers denied the linkage, and the more
politically appealing position held sway.
Used car prices had already headed skyward
along with the prices of practically everything
else. In November 2021, the consumer price
index had risen 6.8% year-over-year, the largest increase in three decades by June, it
would hit 9%. But the Federal Reserve said
not to worry, pointing to lingering supply
chain problems. Instead of decisively pulling
the brake lever ahead of the curve, its January
forecast called for the controlled overnight
interest rate to range from 0.75% to 1.0%. The
Fed reversed and started hitting the brakes in
March.
How things changed.
The train loaded with purchasing power
and the train filled with war supply reductions converged. The Fed-controlled rate now
targets 4.25% . As late as March, respected
analysts were optimistically calling for 2022s
real GDP growth to exceed 3.0% and for 2023
to peg 2.4% or better. Some of those same
forecasters now expect less than 1.0% growth
in 2023. There are lots of moving parts in the
story, so lets consider just two items:
First, the economic ramifications of the
war, while never ignored, were underestimated. The disruption to energy and grain markets sent chaotic tidal waves across the world
economy, causing huge populations of people
to face starvation and major U.S. trading partners to face recession. Meanwhile, U.S. stimulus and record-setting domestic spending
programs continued apace.
Second, the relationship between money
and the economy matters. Far too little attention was given to the inflating power that
trillions of government-created dollars would
have when inflation became embedded in a
government-stimulated economy.

Imperialism is alive and fomenting in Russia, China
China sent 71 aircraft and seven ships
toward Taiwan in a 24-hour period, while
Russia shelled the Kherson region more than
70 times.
These acts of aggression — occurring 5,000
miles apart, one in a grinding war of attrition,
the other as part of an ongoing political and
diplomatic struggle that may well result in
open hostilities — are related.
Its no accident that the two most dangerous powers in the world, China and Russia,
are aggrieved empires seeking to right what
they consider the wrongs that resulted in
their humiliation and diminishment in the
19th and 20th centuries.
Whereas in the 2000s the most pressing
problem of the international system seemed to
be malicious sub-national groups operating in
ungoverned spaces, now it is malicious wouldbe supranational entities seeking to take over
spaces governed by others.
In his masterly book, Diplomacy, Henry
Kissinger observed, Empires have no interest in operating within an international system; they aspire to be the international system.
The fall of the Roman Empire was a social
and economic catastrophe for the West, but
its been a blessing that no such over-awing
behemoth ever rose in its place.
Russia and China, in contrast, never lost
their imperial DNA, and have chips on their
shoulders.
Russia achieved some success in its
long-running ambition to be considered a
major European power through top-down
reforms and military conquest. It gobbled up
an estimated 50 square miles a day across a
couple of centuries. But it lost the Crimean
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
War in the mid-19th century, suffered a humiliating defeat at the hands of Japan in 1905, and
then experienced utter cataclysm in World
War I.
Marxism-Leninism was supposed to provide a way for backward Russia to leapfrog
the West. That didnt happen, but Moscow
established a new Communist empire of considerable extent. Of course, this came a cropper with defeat in the Cold War, an event that
Vladimir Putin, notably, considers the greatest geopolitical catastrophe of the century.
The man who has statues of Peter and
Catherine the Great, accomplished Russian
imperialists, on display in the Kremlin considers an independent Ukraine merely a tool
of hostile Western forces and a wayward part
of Greater Russia. Such ideas — and a deep
feeling of shame at Russias fall — justify the
brutish attempted occupation and dismemberment of Ukraine, a cynical and crude operation even by Russian standards.
If Russia sought to be a respected mem-
ber of the European club, China believed it
neednt bother. It was the Middle Kingdom,
the only civilization in a world of barbarians
who owed it tribute and deference. Its sense
of superiority was punctured by the Opium
Wars in the middle of the 19th century and,
as with Russia, a shocking defeat in a conflict
with Japan.
Eventually, China, too, turned to MarxismLeninism. After yet more humiliation and
failure, the CCP now is fired with audacious
visions of a return to imperial grandeur.
President Xi Jinping is more or less explicit about it. He has said that since the Opium
War of the 1840s the Chinese people have long
cherished a dream of realizing a great national rejuvenation. Now, it is on the cusp of
providing a new option for other countries,
and a Chinese approach to solving the problems facing mankind. In short, it will be an
era that sees China moving closer to center
stage.
This is a vision of Middle Kingdom redux,
although couched in bloodless phrasing.
Xi views Taiwan much the same way as
Putin views Ukraine — it rightfully belongs
to China, and re-taking it will help salve
the geo-political and psychological wounds
of imperial Chinas spectacular descent into
disaster and powerlessness. We cannot lose
even one inch of the territory left behind by
our ancestors, Xi told a U.S. official in 2018.
The war in Ukraine shows that when an
autocrat ruling a once-great empire speaks in
such terms, it is time to arm the targeted state
to the teeth and dispense with all illusions.

Weve been listening to the January 6 hearings
forever now, they came up with nothing. A subpoena for Trump that they decide is so pointless
the just drop the whole thing. Now were going
to have hearings about Hunter Biden and the
big guy and his 10 percent. If theres something
there, I say go ahead with it. But if theres nothing there I dont want to listen to a bunch of
opinions of everybody who already has their dog
in the fight. I want to know facts and not opinions and if theres nothing there I dont want to
listen to it for years to come. Thank you.
Eggs are more than four dollars a dozen. Why
cant Garnett become the egg capital of Kansas?
Everybody in town get chickens and lets make a

This food price thing is just ridiculous.
Whoever heard of mild irreversible heart damage in children? This is criminal and theres
going to be more come out about it. You who

A proposal to reduce production acreage and wheat
and feed grain surpluses will
likely be discussed in the
next Congressional session.
Still, local agency leaders
believe that the program
needs a better explanation
before local farmers can
determine if the programs
benefits are worth the reductions. The program is a payment in kind that would
give farmers grain commodities for taking land out of production. According to a news
release from Bob Dole, R-Kan,
the original proposal was not
passed by the 97th Congress.
Doles statement included
that the program was sorely needed to reduce excessive
stocks and lay the groundwork for price and income
strength in the future. A new
road project is being proposed
for the southeast of Harris
per the Kansas Department of
Transportation. The opportunity for the public hearing
will be offered on Thursday
to consider the proposed corridors economic, social, and
environmental effects and the
routes design.

Anderson
County
Commissioner made no move
towards a decision on landfill
rates. New information may
allow the county to charge
less money than previously
anticipated if the formula is
based on monthly or annually. Initially, the commission
thought residents would be
paying $1.50 more per ton for
dumping their refuse at the
Landfill beginning January
1, 1993, due to state mandate.
When the information was
received on order, it was
noted that two different formulas could be used to figure the amount of money
the county would owe. One
THAT WAS THEN
Chelsey DAlbini
Send historic photos, information
to review@garnett-ks.com
formula was based on the
tonnage of refuse collected at
the site, and the other was
based on county population
the increase aimed at raising money to fund projects
to find new recycling methods. The county would multiply its monthly tonnage by
$1.50 to arrive at the money
owed. The current load has
been averaging about 304
tons monthly. The increase
would cost approximately $56
per month toward the recycling research. Utilizing the
population formula, the countys payment would be about
$1,560.

Per data from the State of
Kansas, the jobless rate in
Anderson County saw a slight
decline. The pace was 4.2
percent in November, which
reflected a tenth of a point
from the previous month. In
Kincaid, a bonfire party near
the bridge on Vermont Road a
quarter mile north of 100 Road
caused significant structural
damage when the heat of the
fire caused cracking in the
bridges concrete supports.
County Commissioners were
informed of the damage by
Roads Foreman Forrest Cass
that the bridge was still
usable but that the repairs
needed to be made immediately before seasonal weather
could make the injury worse.
City workers have contacted
the company responsible for
constructing the new water
tank west of Seventh Avenue
to fix several leaks that have
surfaced on the welds of the
tank. City Manager Rick
Doran said pinholes in some
welds were leaking water in
the new tower when filling
it in preparation for being
placed online for water distribution.

Popular school nurse
Marcia Peine, Greeley, was
laid to rest Friday after her
unexpected death from a
recent medical procedure
complications. For the last
24 years, Peine has worked
as the district nurse for USD
365 and was well-known to
students and parents. Lack of
interest in a new after-school
program could toll its death
knell before it begins. The
program, expected to start
in January, is already facing
questions of viability due to
a lackluster response to open
enrollment. Only 12 children
had signed up as of Friday
to attend the program offered
after school Monday through
Thursday.
The program
needed at least 20 participants
to meet expenses and was initially limited to only 30 participants. Fees were set at
$35 per month, including the
directors salary and snacks
provided to the children.
Commissioners discussed
the program at the Dec 26
meeting, and questions were
raised about grants available to help pay the monthly
fee. County Attorney-elect
Brandon Jones says hell use
some of the countys $40,000plus in diversion funds to
remodel the county attorney
offices in the courthouse but
hopes to donate the rest to
local charities to use in service to the community.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, January 3, 2023
LOCAL
Routine Reflections
Kim Baldwin, McPherson
County farmer and rancher
Weve arrived at another
intersection of old and new.
A time where we say goodbye
to one year while also welcoming another. The singing
of Auld Lang Syne has been
sung, well-wishes have been
said, and new goals have been
declared.
This is also a traditional
time of reflection. Whether its
looking back at the best movies
watched, the total number of
books read, the overall amount
of rainfall measured or the
number of acres acquired, we
all have something to reflect on
from the past year.
So many of these reflections
tend to gravitate toward numbers as the form of official measurement. Understandably, its
a fairly easy way to look at
a specific period of time and
determine the wins and losses;
the things that worked and the
things we learned from during
a year.
On our farm, we take many
numbers and create many
charts and graphs to measure
a variety of aspects from the
year. From fuel prices, household expenditures, rainfall
totals, market changes, sales,
purchases and so much more.
We can and do create visual
measurements throughout the
year, which allow us to reflect
on a variety of areas.
To be honest, the visual measurements, while appreciated,
sometimes only provide a small
glimpse into the overall area
being measured and reflected
upon. Some of the things we
reflect on might highlight ones
strengths or weaknesses or
areas for improvement, while
other reflections remind us
that we have minimal control.
If anything, 2022 has reminded me that measurements and
assessments dont always tell a
complete story when it comes
to reflecting on ones declared
victories or admitted defeats at
the end of a year.
Numbers might look good
and the means of measurement
at a given point might suggest
an anticipated positive outcome. But if the rain doesnt
fall, or if it falls all at once, or
a windstorm blows through, or
hail hits, those numbers and
outcomes change in an instant.
While I generally declare
goals at the start of a new year,
I have learned over time I wont
have a hard start and stop time
with a straight line in between
for the sake of measurement.
If needed, adjustments will be
made along the way based on
routine reflections to help me
get to where I want to be.
And yes, while we have
arrived at another intersection
of an old year and a new year,
we must recognize that theres
traffic coming from multiple
directions. In reality, it is
how we react and adjust while
mindfully reflecting throughout the year which will allow
us the opportunity to continue
to move forward, getting closer
to our ultimate goals.

Commissioner Jody Cole formalized a direction on housing
in her January 2020 initiatives
plan which she introduced to
commissioners, after which
the commission by consensus
began to discuss a housing
study as a necessary first step
toward that initiative. Thencity manager Chris Weiner discussed with commissioners on
numerous occasions his belief
that affordable housing was
one of the towns primary economic needs, and that expanding senior living opportunities
was a good way to create vacancies in private, single family
residences as older people sold
their homes and moved into
available senior facilities.
A key component of any
construction project undertaken in the near future will
be interest on bonds for construction, which were around
2.15 percent but after moves
by the federal reserve to slow
inflation have risen with other
interest rates to around 3.75 as
2022 closed.

housing study.
RHID is authorized for any
city in Kansas with a population less than 60,000 in a county
with a population of less than
80,000 or for any county with a
population of less than 40,000.
In 2021, the approval of
Senate Bill 90 expanded RHID
to include the renovation of
buildings or other structures
that are more than 25 years old
primarily for residential use
located in a central business
district. This is noteworthy
because it allows for vertical
improvements upper floor
apartments or condominiums
in vintage and often abandoned downtown buildings
rather than being limited to
infrastructure as typical RHID
allows. The allowance is for
housing on those upper floors
only not commercial establishments.
SB90 determines that costs
for the construction and
rehabilitation of upper-story units are reimbursable.
Reimbursable costs could
include plumbing, HVAC,
walls, flooring, removal of hazardous substances or materials, roofing, framing, etc., and
can include acquisition costs
of a building if its acquired for
housing purposes on its upper
floors.
An RHID is a locally driven program with rules determined by city and county governing bodies. The city/county
must take action to complete
a Housing Needs Analysis
under the program guidelines,
set the physical boundaries
of their RHID, pass a resolution to establish it, apply to
the Secretary of Commerce for
approval of the district, and
create their development plan.
Kansas net farm income holding steady
in 22, but next year could be tougher
By Pat Melgares, K-State
Research and Extension news
service
MANHATTAN, Kan. A
Kansas State University
agricultural economist says
farm income in Kansas has
remained pretty good in 2022
despite the rising cost of doing
business.
But Greg Ibendahl says
farmers should be cautious
heading into 2023 as the combined effects of weather and
higher prices for fertilizer, gas
and other inputs are likely to
hit their pocketbook a bit harder.
Going into 2022, (the agriculture industry) was definitely in an environment of higher
input prices, but I think a lot
of farmers were able to lock
in (lower prices) for some of
those inputs before they went
very high, Ibendahl said. So
I dont think farmers fully felt
the effect of higher prices in
2022.
Listen to an interview by
Samantha Bennett with Greg
Ibendahel on the weekday
radio podcast, Agriculture
Today
In January, 2022, Ibendahl
reported net farm income
for Kansas grain farms to be
$261,000, a 39% increase from
the previous year. In May, the
Kansas Farm Management
Association reported the statewide average net farm income
in 2021 was $310,230 the highest ever recorded
Ibendahl has yet to see final
numbers for the current year,
but he suspects Kansas net
farm income will fall short
of 2021s record numbers.
Nonetheless, they should still
look good for most of the states
farmers and ranchers.
Farm income kind of bottomed out about six years ago,
he said, but ever since then,
its been rising every single
year. Net farm income will certainly be down from what it
was in 2021, but from a historical perspective, I think its still
going to be pretty high, which
is good for producers.
Ibendahl said drought conditions in much of Kansas
especially in the southern part
of the state — put a drag on
net farm income the past year.
Crop insurance helped some
farmers, he said, but its certainly not going to be what it
could have been if we would
have had normal rainfall this
last year.
He added that although prices for many grains were up,
Kansas farmers couldnt take
full advantage of that bump
because of lower yields due
to drought. Government payments also slowed post-pandemic.
Farmers are likely to feel the
brunt of high prices for fertilizer. Ibendahl noted that cost of
anhydrous ammonia an effi-
cient and widely used source
of nitrogen fertilizer topped
$1500 per ton in 2022.
Based on my models, I
think were going to be looking
at $1200 to $1500 for the next
year or two, so its going to be
pretty high and I dont think
theres going to be any way to
avoid it like some farmers did
the past year, Ibendahl said.
Cutting back on the amount
of fertilizer applied is not
necessarily a good option, he
added: Youre still going to
want to apply close to the normal amount of fertilizer to get
the yields that you need. So,
thats going to be a big expense
that farmers are going to have
to deal with.
Ibendahl also said the coming year is not a good time to
incur more debt due to rising
interest rates.
We dont want to be in a
situation where a dime out of
every dollar goes to paying
interest, he said.
Something I recommend
all the time is to watch your
family living. Farmers are not
different from anyone else in
the world; when income is up,
its not unusual for farm families to raise their family living.
Nows the time youre really
going to have to watch what
youre doing with your family living so that you dont get
those debt levels up.
Preparation is key to a successful calving season
K-State Research and Extension
news service
MANHATTAN, Kan. Kansas
State University veterinarian
Gregg Hanzlicek said being
prepared ahead of calving season is the best way for producers to assure they will bring
home the newborn calves successfully.
We're approaching the end
of the second trimester and
moving into the third trimester which means the metabolic
demands of that cow or heifer
are going to increase tremendously, Hanzlicek said.
A key to having a successful calving and production
season is for cows and heifers
to be in the appropriate body
condition, which according to
Hanzlicek is a score of 5-7. He
said he has seen many cattle
in the 3-4 range in the past few
months.
Were far enough away
from calving that we can add
condition to these cows and
heifers without (creating) an
economic burden, he said. It
really comes down to having a
formulated ration that is balanced for protein and energy.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, January 3, 2023
PREPARATION…
FROM PAGE 6
For those wanting to add
scour vaccines to their prevention program, its time to
decide what vaccine they are
going to use, Hanzlicek said.
Look at the label and schedule on the calendar when they
need to start vaccinating the
cows and heifers.
Hanzlicek said heifers will
require two doses of the scours
vaccine, while cows need one.
The timing of those vaccines
is very, very important, he
said.
Also, Hanzlicek recommends establishing a clean
calving area to help reduce the
risk of scours. Theres two
major risk factors for scours,
he said. One is the lack of
colostrum consumption. The
other is a contaminated environment that the babies are
born into.
Hanzlicek recommends having a location to move the pairs
off the calving area to keep the
calving facility less contaminated with the scour organisms.
Getting the calf here safely
is another factor to consider,
"Most operations are going
to have to help at least one
animal during the calving season, Hanzlicek said. The last
national survey indicated that
1 of every 100 heifers and 2 of
every 100 adult cows will need
assistance.
Being prepared to pull a calf
is important. Hanzlicek said
producers should have the fol-
lowing items on hand:
Clean straps or chains.
OB sleeves.
Lube.
Working calf pullers.
Veterinarian's phone number.
Intervening at an appropriate
time is important. If we intervene too early and the cow or
heifer is not dilated, we can
injure the tissues and hurt the
calf, Hanzlicek said. If we
intervene too late, a lot of times
thats when we end up with
stillborn calves.
According to Hanzlicek,
once a cow has reached the second stage of labor, they should
give birth within 30 minutes.
A heifer should calve within
an hour. Second stage labor is
when the heifer or cow can be
observed experiencing uterine
contractions, or the water-bag
or calfs feet are visible.
If assistance from the producer is needed, and they
are unable to extract the calf
within 15 minutes, then help
either a veterinarian or someone with more experience -should be called.
Following calving, the calf
should be up and nursing within two hours, Hanzlicek said. If
not, a colostrum replacer can
be given to help get the calf
started.
Colostrum-based powders
are the best way to go, and I
would recommend that every
producer have one or two bags
of powder replacer on hand
during the calving season,
Hanzlicek said.

move Iowa to a much lower,
flat income tax rate and eliminating income tax on retirement income.
Is tax reform needed to halt
the exodus when the Kansas
Legislature returns to work in
2023?
Alan Cobb with the Kansas
Chamber of Commerce says
Yes:
We are the only state in our
region that lost population.
We need more people moving into our state and fewer
people leaving.
Economic
opportunity drives migration.
Sound tax policy and a regulatory policy that encourages growth should be at the
top of the policy list. These
are changes that the Kansas
Legislature and the Kansas
Governor should support.
Elizabeth Patton with
Americans For Prosperity
agrees:
Taxes are a decision maker.
Not only for individuals and
families deciding if they want
to stay, but they are also the
key if they are able to stay
because of our opportunities.
Higher taxes for both individuals and businesses make it
harder to build a life, a business, a future. Tax relief would
make a significant difference
in hard-working Kansans
building that future right here
in our state.
James Franko is President
of the Kansas Policy Institute,
which owns The Sentinel. He
calls for the incentives that tax
reform provides:
Lowering taxes isnt about
bean-counting or slashing government; its about providing
opportunities to individual
Kansans. Its about trusting
individual Kansans to capture
those opportunities and make
the best decisions for themselves, their families, and their
futures.

celebrations, and events that

We take pride in the ways that

We value the preservation of Garnett's historic
Courthouse Square, homes,

Recreational Amenities
We value the abundance of

activities that contribute to our
overall health, wellbeing, and
enjoyment.
Sense of Community
We value our sense of
community where we help
our neighbors in need and
our basic support systems:
Garnett's local hospital, public
library, senior center, schools,
city services, and the many
nonprofit organizations that
work to improve the quality of
life for all residents.
Small Town
We value the safety, simplicity, peacefulness, affordability, and accessibility of
small town living that Garnett
offers, where we can live, and
families can raise their children in a close knit community.
Volunteer Spirit
We value the willingness
of the committees, boards,

These were tough lessons,
which lead me to hope that
well do better in the years
ahead. The Chinese zodiac calendar marks 2023 as the year of
the rabbit, a time to celebrate
longevity, peace, prosperity,
and hope for the future. Surely
these happy prospects could
not come at a better time.
