Summary
City employee Caleb Ironsyde told the Sedan City Council that KDHE scheduled an inspection of the city's lagoons and that "the last samples taken did not look good," prompting follow-up on wastewater treatment and compliance.
Caleb Ironsyde told the Sedan City Council on July 1 that the Kansas Department of Health and Environment has scheduled an inspection of the city's lagoons and that "the last samples taken did not look good." Council members heard that the samples suggest issues that will require follow-up to ensure regulatory compliance.
The council did not take a formal vote during the meeting on corrective actions but directed staff to continue work and report back. The discussion came amid several other staff reports on utilities, including a separately noted terminated water account found to be still consuming service. The council requested more information as part of its 2026 budget planning so members can assess any needed repairs or operational changes.
