Local nonprofit invites commissioners to US‑24 corridor study update Sept. 17
Summary
Jared Tremblay of Wentzell's NPO urged Riley County commissioners to attend a Sept. 17 meeting in Manhattan to review progress on the US‑24 corridor study being conducted with Manhattan, Pottawatomie County and KDOT.
Jared Tremblay of Wentzell's NPO told the Riley County Commission that the county is a partner in the US‑24 corridor study and invited commissioners to a joint city‑county meeting at 4 p.m. Sept. 17 in Manhattan to hear a progress update.
"We are holding a city, county, and hopefully county meeting on September 17 to discuss the progress of that report and plans going forward," Tremblay said. He asked for the commission's attendance and noted prior meetings had redundancy but that this session will present new information. The commission did not take further action at the meeting; the item was informational.
Why it matters: the US‑24 corridor project includes local governments and KDOT and could affect transportation planning and project priorities in the region. Tremblay's invitation gives commissioners an opportunity to hear staff and consultant findings and to provide county input before policy or funding decisions are finalized.
