The Wamego City Commission heard annual reports.

At Tuesday’s meeting, Airport Board member Robert Riat went over the completed enhancements to the Wamego Airport.

Riat said two new T-Hangers were built, and a new more efficient beacon light was installed, with the labor done by volunteers.

He added the board is working to make the airport something the City of Wamego can be proud of.

Riat said the goals include the construction of additional T-Hangers and converting the outdated fuel pumps to credit card pumps.

Commissioner Bill Ditto said the Airport is a good example of private/public cooperation.

Housing Authority Property Manager Joni Chrest said the property is currently 100 percent occupied with 17 on the waiting list.

The 32 unit Housing Authority became a part of a consortium with the Atchison Housing Authority in 2013.

Chrest said the property includes efficiency, one and two bedroom apartments , which serves mostly the elderly and disabled, and is a HUD subsidized property.

Chrest has been with the Housing Authority for 8 years, and was complimented for her hard work by the Commission.
