The last three Ark City Commission elections have been change elections. Incumbents have lost in all three of them. These are unsettled, active times in the city between the rivers.
Don't see how you can see this election as anything other than a rebuke of current commission majority, most notably Mell Kuhn, whose brash, sometimes crude style alienates some people.

Exactly, this is all about Mel and a little about Dotty. Dotty you better wise up. Mel can't change, it is who he is. Scott was just running at the wrong time with his political views. If you want someone to nitpick a budget, he is your man. What we need now is growth of any kind.
Why can't the city hurry up and get these blankedy blank limbs picked up. We look like we are in the stone age.
The winfield courier had an article yesterday saying how their city had all the limbs picked up.
Has Ark City even started yet?
According to the ads in the Traveler the city gave people until the 6th, just a few days ago, to get all of the limbs out to the street. Then a 2 week program to get it all picked up.
Didn't I also read that Winfield had the county helping to clean up? And I really wonder how much of their job is finished. Anyone drive down anything other than main street?
I only had a few because all our trees are small and young. Still, I have taken a little bit each Saturday to the limb and brush site. As of noon today, I am back to just needing to get the normal srping stuff done around the property.
My brother also said he has spent a few hours during the week to haul off some of his fallen limbs.
There was a fairly steady stream of personal pickup trucks in and out of the burn pit this morning.
On the other hand, some folks who live nearby have had half dozen pickups there at one time and several young men - some teenagerish looking - yet they have made no effort to remove any of the fallen limbs that they piled on the curb and in the street.
That's not so surpirsing. They also cut down limbs last fall off an old tree. They let them fall over onto my mother's property and left them there for my brother and me to clear away.
