They have sworn an oath to uphold our country's and our state's constitution. That includes the right to free speech and the ability for journalists to do their jobs without interference from the government.<br /><br />Below, I've compiled a list of elected city officials and non-elected police officials for all of the cities and municipal police departments that have announced their intent to use full encryption of all operations beginning January 23, 2024.<br /><br />The linked city council/governing body websites include maps to find your elected representative. I suggest contacting every elected representative within your city. This ensures that all members have received the same feedback and information from a constituent.<br /><br />I have excluded the school district police departments, as most of their radio traffic concerns school security and children. Any more significant events or incidents on those campuses would involve the local municipal police department.<br /><br /><b><u>EDITOR'S NOTE:</u></b> If you prefer to make phone calls, those numbers can be found on each city and police department's webpage. If you plan to call a police department, please use an administrative phone number, not the non-emergency number or 911.<br /><br />Alphabetically:<br /><br /><u><b><span style="font-size: large;">Fairway:</span><br /></b> </u><br /><a href="https://fairwaykansas.org/council" target="_blank">City Council webpage</a><br />Mayor - Melanie Hepperly <a href="mailto:mhepperly@fairwaykansas.org" target="_blank">Email - mhepperly@fairwaykansas.org</a><br />Ward 1 - Kelly-Anne Buszek <a href="mailto:kbuszek@fairwaykansas.org" target="_blank">Email - kbuszek@fairwaykansas.org</a><br />Ward 1 - Lee Story <a href="mailto:lstory@fairwaykansas.org" target="_blank">Email - lstory@fairwaykansas.org</a><br />Ward 2 - Dan Bailey <a href="mailto:dbailey@fairwaykansas.org" target="_blank">Email - dbailey@fairwaykansas.org</a><br />Ward 2 - Jerry Williams <a href="mailto:jwilliams@fairwaykansas.org" target="_blank">Email - jwilliams@fairwaykansas.org</a><br />Ward 3 - Joseph Levin <a href="mailto:jlevin@fairwaykansas.org" target="_blank">Email - jlevin@fairwaykansas.org</a><br />Ward 3 - David Watkins <a href="mailto:dwatkins@fairwaykansas.org" target="_blank">Email - dwatkins@fairwaykansas.org</a><br />Ward 4 - Jenna Brofsky <a href="mailto:jbrofsky@fairwaykansas.org" target="_blank">Email - jbrofsky@fairwaykansas.org</a><br />Ward 4 - Tanya Keys <a href="mailto:tkeys@fairwaykansas.org" target="_blank">Email - tkeys@fairwaykansas.org</a><br /><br /><a href="https://fairwaykansas.org/index.asp?SEC=0809E496-026A-47C4-9E06-52D095B80530" target="_blank">Police webpage</a><br />Police Chief/Public Information Officer: J.P.

One of the trucks was on fire, with someone trying to use a fire extinguisher on the flames.<br /><br />Firefighters from Consolidated Fire District No. 2 went to work on the fire and extricated the second driver from his truck.<br /><br />One driver was pronounced dead at the scene. Johnson County Med-Act paramedics transported the other driver to the University of Kansas Medical Center, where he later died.<br /><br />Late Saturday morning, Kansas Highway Patrol Troopers identified Sam E. Wilson, 23, of Greenwood, Missouri as the driver of the Ford F-250 and Robert D. Mangelsdorf Jr., 23, of Tonganoxie, Kansas as the driver of the GMC Sierra.<br /><br />The highway patrol's crash log states that both men were wearing seat belts.<br /><br />Police from several northern Johnson County agencies assisted with closing the northbound lanes of the interstate as the crash was investigated. The Kansas Department of Transportation called out workers to help with traffic control.<br /><br />All lanes of the interstate reopened about 10 a.m.<p></p><a href="http://operation100news.blogspot.com/2011/02/news-media-notification-available.html" rel="nofollow" style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 25px;" target="_blank"><b><span style="font-size: large;">Media notification available</span></b></a><br /><span style="font-size: x-small;">All comments are moderated.

Both residents escaped without injury. The home sustained significant fire and
smoke damage according to the fire department. A damage estimate was not immediately
available.<br />
<br />
“The exact cause of the fire is under investigation, but the residents reported
lighting the fireplace and shortly thereafter being called by neighbors who told
them their house was on fire,” Rhodes said. “The residents said they were aware
of slight damage to the chimney and that they intended to have it repaired
soon.” <br />
<br />The Red Cross will be assisting the displaced residents.<br />

“Overland Park Fire hopes this unfortunate incident can serve as a reminder to
the rest of us that as temperatures drop and we begin using heat sources to
warm our homes, we should have furnaces and chimneys inspected annually by

<br /><br />
"Firefighters went to work attacking fire in the front rooms of the home while additional crews searched to be sure there were not other occupants," Rhodes said. "It took firefighters about 20 minutes to bring the fire under control."<br />
<br />
The resident told fire investigators that they awoke to the sound of fire and got out.<br />
<br />
"Excessive contents made the home difficult to navigate," Rhodes said. "It's unknown if the home had working smoke alarms."<br />
<br />
The home sustained significant fire and smoke damage. No injuries were reported and the exact cause of the fire remains under investigation.<br />
<br />
The displaced resident will be staying with family members according to Rhodes.<br />

Fire investigators say the fire was accidental, caused by careless discard of smoking materials. No working smoke detectors were found in the victim's apartment.<br /><br />"If you need assistance with smoke alarms, contact you local fire department," Rhodes said. "Additionally, smoking materials should always be completely extinguished in sand or water before discarding."<br />

Firefighters from Shawnee, Overland Park, and Lenexa were called to the duplex at 6663 Park Street just after 4 p.m. The first crews to arrive on the scene reported heavy fire on the rear of the structure.<br /><br />Crews worked for about 20 minutes to bring the fire under control and no one was injured.<br /><br />Shawnee Fire Marshal Corey Sands says damage to the building is estimated at $185,000 currently. The other half of the duplex also sustained smoke damage.<br /><br />"The fire started on the outside and was caused by fireplace ashes being stored under the deck and next to combustibles," Sands said. "This fire is a good reminder that fireplace ashes can stay hot for days and should be placed in a metal container well away from anything combustible."<br />
<br />
A stretch of 67th Street between Pflumm Road and Cottonwood Drive was closed as firefighters worked to extinguish the fire.<br />
