Leavenworth County Commission meeting, October 29, 2026 (the meeting title references October 28). The board conditionally approved a final plat in case 26121 by roll-call vote, subject to staff-report conditions and planning commission adoption. The property is zoned RR-2.5; previously approved exceptions concern road connectivity and the building setback for lot 11. EMS reported spending within budget and said it had received its 2025 ambulance, with 2026 and 2027 ambulances expected next spring and a 2028 remount scheduled. The department is reviewing new EMS billing software and plans to return to the board; no software award or purchase approval was made. Officials also described Fort Leavenworth’s move to a separate EMS provider, reportedly under a contract of about $1 million to $1.2 million, after the county had subsidized service there. This was not a county contract award.
The Health Department reported that its Narcan distribution initiative is grant-funded, with more than 3,200 boxes distributed, and said plans for additional vending-machine locations would return to the board for approval. The meeting also included public opposition to a proposed hyperscale data center and discussion of an advisory election; the transcript ends before any vote on that proposal is recorded. A speaker raised possible county road-improvement costs related to a separate zoning matter. No other procurement award or purchasing approval is evident in the transcript.
