Summary

County staff said a three-way agreement with the City of Wichita and the Kansas Health Foundation will formalize groundwater testing at a site on Ninth and Grove and includes a $125,000 county contribution for matching state funds.

Sedgwick County staff said the county will formalize a three-way agreement with the City of Wichita and the Kansas Health Foundation to support groundwater testing at a site described by staff as 20 Ninth and Grove.

A staff member described the agreement as formalizing testing procedures related to a ground well at the site and said the contract includes a $125,000 county contribution intended to help meet matching requirements to secure additional state funds. The staff member said the recommendation was that the item be placed on the consent agenda; a commissioner agreed and asked that the item be moved to consent after noting the item had already been discussed publicly.

The staff member said a technical error had placed the agreement on new business initially and asked whether the commission was comfortable moving it to consent. Commissioners indicated support for handling it on consent. No formal vote or roll-call was recorded in the agenda-review discussion in the transcript.
