(KLZA)-- The Auburn Board of Public Works Board of Directors learned during their May meeting that the Water Source Supply project at Long's Creek is nearing completion.

BPW General Manager Ray Luhring noted there are some minor challenges that are being handled by management and the crew.

The Board also received the 2025 audit report from Julie Bauman, CPA.

Bauman reported that the audit went well and that the Auburn BPW is in good financial position with no findings requiring attention.

A report from Wichita State University in regards to Auburn's Drought Contingency Plan included recommendations, many of which are currently being handled. The BPW plans to continue to work toward an upgraded plan.
