Topeka Development Corporation Board Meeting June 9, 2026

The City of Topeka Development Corporation Board held a meeting on June 9, 2026, focusing primarily on procurement and contract matters related to the Hotel Topeka property. The board discussed an amendment to the purchase and sale agreement allowing the assignment of the contract from Endeavor Hotel Group LLC to YBR Properties WG Topeka LLC, which was approved unanimously. Additionally, the board approved an expenditure of $16,289.25 from hotel non-departmental funds for the replacement of an oil filter on the York chiller at Hotel Topeka, a necessary maintenance expense to ensure reliable air conditioning. This approval was contingent on governing body approval of the fund transfer and passed with an 8-1 vote. The meeting also included an executive session to discuss financial affairs and trade secrets related to the project, with no actions taken during that session.
