The Soldier Township Board on Aug. 6 discussed pursuing a change to Kansas law that governs township bond limits and repayment periods, and authorized preliminary work to draft proposed legislation.
Sen. Kenny Titus attended the meeting alongside Representative Kyle McNorton to help facilitate the effort. The board voted to authorize Sen.
