Whiting Community Center

>The City of Whiting, located in Jackson County in northeastern Kansas, will re-model an existing building into a community center. The project does not have an estimated monetary value as of January 1, 2003. The project is awaiting the engineering assessment. KAN STEP is an acronym for Kansas Small Town Environment Program that is funded through the Kansas Department of Commerce and Housing. KAN STEP has successfully used "sweat equity" to help communities reduce costs of water system improvements and now, fire stations and community centers.

The Project Representatives at Whiting are Kay Flint and Bonnie Eubanks; the Grant Administrator is Jonathan Wimer with the Jackson County Development Corporation; the Architect is Dan Hall of BG Consultants. The Kansas Rural Water Association provides Inspection Services and Assistance.
