SANDRA MILBURN Reno County Communications Specialist

HUTCHINSON, Kan. — The Reno County Commission held their meeting Monday instead of Wednesday because of the Christmas holiday. 

During the meeting, Don Brittain, Public Works Director, told the commission that a portion of 82nd Avenue had to be renamed.

As part of a resolution, Brittain recommended that they rename the portion of 82nd Avenue to North Serviss Avenue, in honor of longtime Public Works employee David Serviss who passed away in August 2024 as a result of an accident.

Serviss' family members were at the meeting to accept a road sign showing the new name of North Serviss Avenue. 

This portion of 82nd Avenue is part of an agreement to take over maintenance of what used to be K-14 and K-96 from the intersection of Dean Road to the eastern city limits of Nickerson and from the western city limits of Nickerson to the Rice/Reno County Line. 

The next Reno County Commission meeting will be held at 9 a.m. on Wednesday, January 8, 2024, in the Veterans Room of the Reno County Courthouse.
