What's the outlook for safety improvements at this U.S. 54 intersection outside Wichita?

At 9:19 a.m. on Oct. 27, a Goddard resident sent a text expressing concerns about the intersection of U.S. 54 and 215th Street West. Before that morning was over, 68-year-old Wichita resident Bradley Alan Voran would be pronounced dead after being involved in a two-vehicle accident at that very intersection, according to a Kansas Highway Patrol report. Residential and commercial growth have led to increased safety concerns in recent years. “The city of Goddard shares concerns regarding the safety of the 215th and U.S. 54 intersection and others such as the 199th and U.S. 54 intersection,” said Goddard City Manager Craig Crossette, in an email to The Eagle. Development of the new Trail’s End subdivision , southeast of the 215th Street West and U.S. 54 intersection, has added vehicle and school bus traffic to the area. And more homes are still being built. Additionally, PrairieLand Partners recently confirmed that it has purchased 26.2 acres near that intersection to build a John Deere dealership , where customers will go to service or purchase tractors, combines, sprayers and applicator equipment, planters, seeders, excavators, backhoes and loaders, among other things. That intersection is also home to a Dillons Distribution Center, which has hundreds

Mold, bugs in liquor, expired medicine & more at Wichita KS restaurants, hotel

Bugs in liquor bottles, mold, flies, expired medicine for sale, leaky sinks, dirty conditions, candy that wasn’t labeled properly, food that wasn’t stored at safe temperatures and more are among violations state inspectors discovered during recent food safety and lodging inspections in the Wichita area. Each week, The Eagle adds to its searchable database of failed inspections from Sedgwick County. Seven restaurants, hotels and other businesses were non-compliant with state regulations Nov. 1-7. Inspectors found few or no violations that week at more than 70 other locations deemed compliant with food safety and lodging rules. Kansas Department of Agriculture inspections are meant to protect the public from foodborne illnesses and other health risks. Locations can fail if they have too many problems, certain types of violations or issues that can’t be fixed right away. Violations are common. Most of the time, they’re corrected in front of an inspector. Examples of things that can be addressed immediately include serving food that’s more than a week old, employees mishandling ingredients and dirty kitchens. Issues that may take longer to correct include pest infestations, power outages and plumbing problems. It’s rare, but a business may be temporarily shut down over violations. Locations that

Former Kansas Rep. Carl Maughan loses law license for 1 year for DUIs

The Kansas Supreme Court ordered former Rep. Carl Maughan to serve a one-year suspension from practicing law in the state after two 2024 DUIs, including one in Topeka . The court’s Nov. 6 order said the suspension is effective from the date of the opinion. Maughan also will be required to undergo a reinstatement hearing. In 2024, the Wichita-area Republican had two DUI convictions after getting pulled over in March in Topeka and crashing his vehicle into a pole in May in Sedgwick County. In both cases, police-conducted alcohol testing revealed blood alcohol concentration levels that exceeded the legal limit of 0.08: 0.22 in Shawnee County and 0.365 in Sedgwick County. In the Topeka case, court records said Maughan began drinking alcoholic beverages at his home in Colwich and drank some more with friends in El Dorado prior to driving to Topeka for the legislative week. Police said they found an empty 100 mL bottle of Fireball, a 12-pack of beer with seven missing cans and a loaded handgun. In the Sedgwick County crash, Maughan suffered a fractured sternum, broken ribs that extended to the spine attachment points, a concussion, and multiple bruises and cuts on his body, according to

‘Shark Tank' investors loved this Haysville business, but did they invest in it?

A few things were immediately clear when this week’s “ Shark Tank ” aired with Haysville resident Jared Mortensen’s pitch . First, the sharks, the show’s potential investors, were immediately taken with Mortensen and his Real Men Apparel Co. Second, they also had a good time laughing — nay, giggling — about what he sells. That’s underwear with different pouches ranging from billiard-ball sizing all the way up to softball sizing, or the ball metric system as Mortensen explained. He told the investors that “underwear is traditionally designed flat in the front so it smashes the boys up against the body.” “I know,” shark Daymond John said. “I know.” Mortensen said the sharks probably were asking how a man goes about finding his size. “We are not asking that,” shark Rashaun Williams jokingly replied. The sharks loved his pitch and Mortensen’s various euphemisms around his products. “That was the funniest pitch I’ve heard in a long time,” Williams said. The sharks used a few euphemisms themselves. They got down to business and asked about his net and gross sales, too. Though they seemed impressed with his numbers, none of the judges jumped at Mortensen’s offer of a 7% stake in
