Brewer took the top 33 precincts

Not only did city council member Carl Brewer win big in Tuesday's primary, he won almost every major precinct in town. That means Mayor Carlos Mayans did not have any significant strongholds in the city -- at least among the 23,892 people who voted for a mayoral candidate. Mayans' best showing Tuesday was in precinct 524, according to a quick spreadsheet analysis by The Hall Monitor this morning. Mayans had 134 votes there, but Brewer had 205.

But, it's worth noting that Mayans logged nearly 29,000 votes in the general election in 2003, which means the potential for him to gain significantly in the April vote is there. But it would probably take a 32 percent turnout like 2003 when there were big name write-in campaigns. This year, it appears no big names are jumping into the race. So turnout could again be a problem for the incumbent in April.

Mayans may be right that many of his would-be supporters stayed home, contributing to Tuesday's dismal 13 percent voter turnout. And it's likely that Brewer's Democratic support brought the party faithful out to the polls. But it appears Mayans will need significant Republican party help to boost him enough to compete with Brewer in April. And it's not yet clear if the county Republicans are going to push hard on Mayans' behalf.

I'm so excited! No, really. I am.

In the at-large Wichita school board race, Kevass Harding after a day of campaigning was ready to do cartwheels.

Karl Peterjohn? Well, let's just say he was awake.

When The Hall Monitor called to interview him about winning a slot in the April 3 election, he saved his excitement and was more reserved than usual. Peterjohn, the taxpayers advocate, isn't animated by nature but a drop in excitement was still noticeable.

So why no excitement? It's really about being cautious saying that his "campaign continues" and they will "continue to get the word out."

And we'll continue to keep tabs on you Mr. Peterjohn. YEAH! Or should we say... yeah.

County commissioner hires consultant for fishing

Sedgwick County Commissioner Tom Winters says he's thought long and hard about the issue of consultants, what with the county and city of Wichita recently releasing information about how often they're hired with public tax dollars.

In fact, he's decided to take the issue home with him: He and his son are hiring a consultant to help them go fishing in Oklahoma.

"We're going to a lake we've never been to and fishing for a fish we've never fished for before," Winters said. "Now, we know how to fish, but in order for us to fully enjoy our experience, we thought a consultant would help us."

The "consultant" is a fishing expert who will spend half a day with Winters and his son. The consultant will show them where the best spots in the lake are and how to find different kinds of fish.

"You know, sometimes you just don't know everything and you need a little help. That's what this guy is for. And, though there are areas of expertise an organization like Sedgwick County needs to have, there's some things we just don't know."

'Nuff said.

Let the campaign ads begin

While the direct mail from city council and mayoral candidates have been hitting mailboxes for more than a month and signs are popping up all over town, the TV ads are just beginning.

Carl Brewer's ads started running this morning and you can expect to see more in between TV newscasts, Sunday morning political talk shows and even between snippets of Ugly Betty, the ABC show that airs before Grey's Anatomy (one of the most popular shows on TV).

The ad features a female voice over talking about Brewer's community activities and military career. Hitting TVs is probably the quickest way to develop name identification, which is, right now, the biggest problem for the Brewer camp since Mayor Carlos Mayans is well-known after four years as mayor and 10 years as a Republican state representative. No word yet on any Mayans ads. But stay tuned.

Brewer's ad debuts just a day before candidates are required to file their latest campaign finance reports. The reports will likely show how many more TV ads viewers can expect as campaigns go into full speed after next week's primary.

Candidates opine on downtown development

The Wichita Downtown Development Corporation published their candidate questionnaire responses online today, giving voters their most in-depth look yet at candidates' downtown ideas. (The Eagle's voters guide is due out Tuesday. See how mayoral candidates responded to the Wichita Independent Business Assocation here and how city council candidates responded here.)

The WDDC has long been focusing on parking and that showed in their questions. Candidates, meanwhile, all seemed to gravitate toward parking plans as the most important issue facing the core of the city. All the mayoral candidates that responded said they would support city-owned parking downtown, although some, like King David Davis, said city involvement should be a last resort.

Mayor Carlos Mayans didn't respond, and he wasn't available by phone this afternoon.

Parking, however, is already in the works. The city council is weeks away from a vote on the city's biggest TIF district ever. But questions remain about who should get inside of the borders.

Charged with illegal dumping after complaining about a messy yard

A few months ago, Sunflower Community Action got fed up with the mountain of garbage that was almost swallowing an entire house near 10th and Volutsia. They spoke at council meetings and they issued press releases.

They they decided to go to City Manager George Kolb's house. Kolb wasn't home, but his wife was. His wife accepted a letter from Sunflower, said it's George's problem to deal with not her's and then she closed the door, Sunflower reps. say. Sunflower left some signs in Kolb's yard with photos of the messy yard, ostensibly to show Kolb what it's like to live next to something like that. But it backfired.

Now, three Sunflower staffers and a 78-year-old woman who lives next to the trashy yard (which has since been cleaned up after a court battle), are being charged with illegal dumping and criminal trespass, according to a Sunflower press release.

Sunflower will have a press conference Friday to share their views about the charges, and, next week, they'll have court appearances.

Bingo!

Let's play a game...

Ever been to a school board meeting and wondered how they can be more lively? No worries. A reader sent along this gem to The Hall Monitor to help out. There may be a council or county version of this game but we haven't seen it yet.

To play click the read more link. Enjoy.

Do you get bored at educational-ese school board meetings? Try this.
1. Before (or during) the next meeting, prepare yourself by drawing a
square. I find that 5" x 5" is a good size. Divide the card into
columns-five across and five down. That will give you 25 one-inch
blocks.
2. Write one of the following words/phrases in each block:
No child left behind
Test scores
Core competencies
Communication
Standards
Multiple exposures
Benchmarks
Proactive
Win-win
Think outside the box
Action plan
Result-driven
Assessments
Knowledge base
At the end of the day
Touch base
Mindset
Differentiated
Retention
Skills
Background knowledge
Effective learning
Exemplars
Implementation
Reflection
3. Check off the appropriate block when you hear one of those
words/phrases.
4. When you get five blocks horizontally, vertically, or diagonally
you win.
5. Any number can play.

City offers its view for those curious about consultants

The city spent $1.5 million on consultants in 2006. That's according to the city's self-analysis released Tuesday in a move that should make Sedgwick County's forthcoming consultant use analysis that much more interesting.

The city's release indicates their defensive stance shortly after county commissioners requested an analysis of consultant spending and after inquiries by The Eagle and KAKE-TV. The city's statements also seem to respond to several mayoral and council candidates who have taken jabs at what they perceive as too much consultant use.

But candidates, many of whom list reduce government spending as a top priority, aren't likely to cut back their anti-consultant rhetoric anytime soon.

Street engineering studies account for much of the outside firm hiring, but the city has also paid for outside analysis of their productivity, surveys, legal aid and recruiting of job candidates.

Although the council frequently asks why city staffers are asking for consultants, the council is usually satisfied with the results -- at least enough to almost always unanimously approve the consultant contracts either one-by-one or in bulk when they're under $25,000. And a lot of the fees are actually paid by particular neighborhoods via special assessments for paving or sewer projects.

"Consultants provide an independent and outside perspective required on some projects to comply with Federal and state regulations or City ordinances," according to a press release issued today.

"Consultants are utilized" it continues, "when the project is a nonrecurring one or if the City may be short of critical expertise. Some projects occur infrequently, or call for special skills that cannot be learned quickly or easily by staff. Other projects require a quick turnaround. During peak demands there is an economy of scale utilizing consultants; engaging a consultant is cost effective and will be less expensive in the long run than hiring new employees or manager."

construction time for public improvements through efficient office and field coordination, thereby reducing inconvenience
to the public, and lowering interest costs.

to the vendor.
*** Contracts that have December Report under Comments will go to City Council on February 13, 2007.
