Where it applies

Written for the jurisdictions listed here.

The record. The county's site answers a Cloudflare challenge to plain fetch and to the reading browser, so the Commission's pages came from the site's search-indexed copies and the Internet Archive's captures, while the site's media paths answer directly: the February 11, 2026 and April 22, 2026 agenda packets and the November 12 and November 26, 2025 packets were read whole from the Administration department's 2025-2026 AGENDA folders (born-digital). "Commission meetings are held each month on the 2nd, 4th and 5th Wednesdays at 9 a.m. in the Veterans Room at the Reno County Courthouse, 206 W. 1st Ave., Hutchinson" - the courthouse's own Veterans Room is the board's standing meeting room, and the packets' headers carry it ("Reno County Courthouse Veterans Room"). The board. "Reno County Commissioners selected new leadership during their January 14, 2026, meeting. Ron Hirst was elected Chair, and Randy Parks was elected Vice-Chair", with Ron Vincent (District 3), Richard Winger (District 4) and Don Bogner (District 5); Jenna Fager is the county clerk and Randy Partington the county administrator. The veteran item. The February 11, 2026 packet's monthly department reports: the Department of Aging's January 2026 report, "Aging Projects/Updates/Announcements: Began a new year of Community Collaboration Informational Series Session with 'How to Help A Veteran!', guest speaker from Gentiva" - the county department's own veteran-focused community session, reported to the board with the rest of the Aging report. The April 22, 2026 packet carries the same building's use ("hosted in the Veterans room") for staff defensive-driving classes. The November 12 and 26, 2025 packets carry no veteran item. The proclamation on the county's news record. The county's own news post records the Operation Green Light proclamation Chairman Randy Parks read at the November 13, 2024 commission meeting - "with designation as a Green Light for Veterans County, Reno County hereby declares from October 30 through Veterans Day, November 11th, 2024, a time to salute and honor the service and sacrifices of our men and women in uniform transitioning from active service", with the courthouse "illuminated in green light" - the most recent veteran proclamation on the site's news record; the window's packets read carry no successor. No other veteran item. The Register of Deeds' 2023 fee schedule (effective January 1, 2023, fees set by K.S.A. 28-115) prices deeds, mortgages, tax-lien releases and the rest of the recording list and carries no military-discharge or DD-214 line - the free recording is K.S.A. 73-210a (the State entry) - and the office's pages (Registrar of Deeds Michelle Updegrove, 125 W 1st Avenue, 620-694-2942) name no veteran text of their own. No veteran benefit was adopted, narrowed or repealed.
