Paving the Way

Raising the Heat on Street Repair

Beginning in April of 2020, City administration began asking the question “If you were king or queen for a day, what would be the first thing you’d do?” Nearly every person responded with at least one, but usually two or three, of the same five repeating goals. The list below is the result of countless conversations with residents, members of City Council, stakeholder groups, visitors, and community partners (like local business owners, teachers, church groups, and more).

Our Top Five Goals are:

  1. Clean Up the Community
  2. Repair and Maintain Streets
  3. Economic Development
  4. Housing of All Types
  5. Infrastructure (Hard and Soft)

Paving the Way is a direct response to Osawatomie's Community Goal #2 – Repairing and Maintaining Streets.
