Atchison County to contact new owner after partial cleanup of Sheridan Road dump site
Summary
Chairwoman Casey Quinn told commissioners the county will send a letter to the new owner of property at 6199 Sheridan Road after aerials show partial cleanup; the commission said it wants to work with the owner on adjacent land across Sheridan Road.
Chairwoman Casey Quinn said the county will send a letter to the new owner of a property at 6199 Sheridan Road after aerial imagery showed the site has been partially cleaned.
The statement came during the Atchison County Commission's June 9 regular meeting at the Atchison County Courthouse. "Compared to the aerials, the property has been somewhat cleaned up but we would still like to work with new owner on the property across Sheridan Rd," Quinn said.
Quinn said she has obtained contact information and will initiate written outreach to the owner to seek cooperation on removing remaining debris and addressing conditions on the adjacent parcel. The commission did not record any formal enforcement action or timeline in the meeting minutes; commissioners said they will continue follow-up.
County Counselor David Van Parys and other staff were listed as present for the discussion, but the minutes do not record further legal steps or deadlines (not specified). The commission moved on to other agenda items without taking a formal vote on enforcement at the June 9 meeting.
The next county commission meeting is scheduled for June 16, when the board may revisit the matter if staff provide updates.
