# November 12, 2026 – Special Public Building Commission

The Johnson County, Kansas Public Building Commission held a special meeting on November 12, 2026. The Commission approved resolution PBC004-26 authorizing the 18th amendment to the base lease and 24th amendment to the lease between the County and the PBC, which Budget and Financial Planning staff said would allow the payments to be included in CCBHC revenue calculations. The Commission also approved the intent to issue up to $15.4 million in revenue bonds, plus issuance and related financing costs, for improvements to the adult residential center, crime lab, county communication center, and New Century Adult Detention Center. These projects were included in the adopted FY 2027 budget and capital improvement plan; $852,000 in cash was already approved and was not part of the proposed debt authorization. The bond-related action passed 6-0.

The Commission also approved resolution PBC006-26 to provide notice of its intent to finance improvements to the Sunset Drive office building through PBC bonds. Staff noted the project was included in the FY 2027 budget and 2027–2031 capital improvement plan; no amount was stated in the transcript. That resolution passed 6-0. No vendors, bids, or contract awards were discussed. Commissioners raised a possible review of the PBC agenda format and whether a consent agenda could be used, subject to consideration of the Commission’s bylaws.
