A commissioner raised a resident complaint about recurring flooding that cuts off access on Northeast Fifth Street at 110th Avenue after a four‑lane project by the Kansas Department of Transportation, saying a homeowner cannot leave when the road receives about four inches of rain.

The commissioner said KDOT’s design removed multiple local access points during construction of the four‑lane, and that when the county line is crossed nearby, roads have access while the local stretch remains cut off. The commissioner said he will follow up with Doug Meyer, who was not present, to gather more history and determine options. "If they get over 4 inches of rain, that's all flooded. He can't get out of his house," the commissioner said, citing photos a resident (Mr. Webster) sent to the commission.

Separately, commissioners mentioned that Jack Timmich called about a KDOT open house in Kingman related to a proposed alignment; the transcript indicates some local opposition to the proposed alignment and that local officials were considering attendance and reporting back to the commission.

Discussion only: commissioners agreed to gather additional history from County Engineer Doug Meyer and to share any report back after the KDOT meeting. No formal referral to KDOT or action to pursue engineering changes was recorded during the meeting.
