He and Glenda, his wife of 50 years, moved to rural Louisburg twelve years ago after being a school administrator for 30 years. We like him because he is personable, easy to talk to and can put people who are visiting the funeral home at ease. He likes people and they like him.

Jerry grew up in Wichita and after college, he and his family, moved to the K.C. area. Now he and Glenda are enjoying the good life out in the country and couldn’t be happier. He gardens and at one time they had nine chickens and two pigs.

Notice of Public Hearing

This project is funded in part by the KDOT Public Transit Program and the Federal Government.

Westar Energy, Inc. (Westar) and Great Plains Energy Incorporated (GPE), parent of Kansas City Power & Light Company (KCP&L), have filed an application with the Kansas Corporation Commission (Commission) to merge as equals. If the application is approved, KCP&L and Westar will become wholly owned subsidiaries of a new parent company.

75088142

Johnson County Topsoil & Landscape Materials, LLC

If approved, the combined company will have more than 1.5 million customers in Kansas and Missouri, nearly 13,000 megawatts of generation capacity, almost 10,000 miles of transmission lines and over 51,000 miles of distribution lines. In addition, more than 45 percent of the combined utility’s retail customer demand can be met with emission-free energy.

Topsoil Garden Mixes

The Commission will decide whether to approve the merger based upon whether the Commission finds the merger promotes the public interest. The Commission will evaluate any possible effects on customers, operational cost savings, competition in the market for electricity, labor dislocations, environmental impacts and any other relevant issues, in making its determination. Westar and KCP&L customers are invited to provide comments regarding these issues.
