K-State Extension asks county for $200,000 in FY27 — $40,000 increase
Summary
Representatives of the K-State Extension Council asked Cowley County commissioners for a $200,000 FY27 appropriation, a $40,000 increase from FY26, to fully fund local extension operations.
Bill Mueller and Lucas Lackey, representing the K-State Extension Council, told the commissioners the council is requesting $200,000 for FY27, an increase of $40,000 from FY26’s $160,000 allocation. They said the additional funds are intended to fully fund the office’s operations and expressed appreciation for past commissioner support.
Commissioners heard the request during a multi-item budget review; staff will include the increase proposal in the formal budget process for later consideration and potential approval or adjustment.
