Cherokee County OKs KDOT-funded engineering bid for collectors west of K‑7
Summary
The Cherokee County Board unanimously approved an engineering bid from Martin Outdoor Enterprises for major collectors west of K‑7; KDOT solicited and will fund the project at no cost to the county.
The Cherokee County Board of Commissioners voted unanimously Nov. 10 to approve an engineering bid from Martin Outdoor Enterprises, Inc. for “major collectors west of K‑7,” with the Kansas Department of Transportation (KDOT) handling solicitation and costs.
Commissioner Myra Carlisle Frazier moved to approve the engineering bid; Commissioner Jack Garner seconded and the motion passed unanimously. According to the motion recorded in the minutes, “The bid was solicited and chosen by KDOT which is paying for the project at no cost to the County.” The county record does not list a contract amount or construction timeline.
The action transfers responsibility for project procurement and funding to KDOT; county officials did not attach additional county funding or conditions in the recorded motion. The minutes do not specify start dates, estimated costs, or required county permits, so follow-up by county staff or KDOT would be needed to identify schedule and implementation details.
