(KNZA)--Plans for the construction of a travel plaza west of Fairview moves forward.

Sabetha-based Keim TS is proposing to construct the facility north of their truck wash, at the junction of U.S. 36 and U.S. 75 Highways.

The Fairview City Council last week approved a resolution of intent to issue up to $5 million in industrial revenue bonds for the project.

The Council also approved a contract for the sale of property next to the Fairview ball diamond to Keim for additional truck parking. Keim has offered to pay the city $15,000 for the property.

In addition, the Council approved a sales tax exemption form for the project. Keim plans to seek a state sales tax exemption for construction materials.

The action comes after the Council at their December 2nd meeting approved a building permit for the project.
