Davids secured $610,000 for the project, which is one of 14 she delivered for Kansas’ Third District to strengthen community safety, improve local infrastructure, and expand economic opportunity across the region. “This storm drainage project in Princeton will help prevent flooding, protecting homes, businesses, and critical infrastructure while ensuring the community is ready for future growth,” said Davids. “By working with local leaders to identify fiscally responsible projects, we’re making smart investments that strengthen local economies, create jobs, and give families and small businesses the confidence to thrive.” This project includes ditch repairs, tube replacements, and other upgrades to better manage water flow and reduce flooding throughout Princeton. These improvements will enhance the city’s ability to manage, treat, and recapture stormwater and subsurface drainage water, helping prepare for future storms while making the community safer and more resilient. “We are grateful for the efforts of Representative Davids to bring funding to the City of Princeton,” said Paul Bean, Executive Director, Franklin County Development Council. “These funds will help this rural community make improvements to the streets and storm drainage that would not be possible without this funding.” Earlier this year, President Trump signed two bipartisan funding agreements into law, both supported by Davids, which included 14 of her project requests to improve education, public safety, and water infrastructure across Kansas’ Third District. Projects totaling $17.8 million include road safety upgrades in Overland Park, reconstructing the Kansas Avenue Bridge in Wyandotte County, providing body cameras for all Overland Park police officers, and purchasing lab equipment to support domestic manufacturing at K-State Olathe. | 1 | 2026-04-04T05:28:40Z | 2026-04-04T05:30:10Z |
