To maintain service and support system integrity throughout the storm, the company incurred extraordi-nary gas costs of $95 million on customers’ behalf. Last year the Kansas Corporation Commission reviewed the extraordinary costs, deter-mined they were prudently incurred and are eligible for recovery based on well-established legal standards, and approved a ﬁnancing order to issue customer rate relief bonds that securitize costs associated with Winter Storm Uri over a period of 10 years. Beginning in July, a ﬁxed charge of $6.49 stem-ming from the securitization of those extraordinary costs will begin appearing on resi-dential customers’ monthly bills.Securitization allows customers to pay for the extraordinary costs over a longer period of time than traditional methods – eas-ing monthly bill impacts. As a reminder, Atmos Energy does not set the market pric-ing for natural gas. Natural gas is a tradeable commod-ity, the price of which is driv-en by global supply and de-mand, and it may ﬂuctuate daily based on market con-ditions. Atmos Energy is a regulated utility and natural gas is a “pass-through cost” to our customers – meaning no proﬁt is added to the com-modity and transportation costs charged to Atmos En-ergy by suppliers. For customers manag-ing past due balances, Atmos Energy is here to help with ﬁnancial assistance:• Budget Billing is a great tool to help manage your budget because your natural gas bill will be more predictable every month. In the winter, your bill can rise unexpectedly as the weather gets colder. However, with Budget Billing your costs are spread more evenly through-out the year, so you are not The Master Of Suspense Is Paying A Visit To The Historic Anthony TheatreBy J.K. GreggThe Historic Anthony Theatre is starting the 4th of July weekend off with a bang! On Saturday, July 1st, the theatre presents an Al-fred Hitchcock Double Fea-ture starting at 5 p.m.The 1959 classic spy thriller North by Northwest is showing at 5 p.m. Nomi-nated for three Academy Awards, it stars screen leg-ends Cary Grant, Eva Marie Saint, James Mason, and Martin Landau and is con-sidered one of Hitchcock’s top ten movies. The ﬁlm begins with Mr. Grant un-knowingly stumbling into a government secret smug-gling operation, and he soon ﬁnds his life in danger as he struggles to understand what is happening around him. In 1995, the ﬁlm was selected for preservation in the National Film Registry as being “culturally, histori-cally, or aesthetically signiﬁ-cant.”The 1954 mystery thrill-er Rear Window will follow at 7:45 p.m. Nominated for four Academy Awards; it stars James Stewart, Grace Kelly, and Raymond Burr. It is considered Hitchcock’s ﬁnest achievement in sus-pense and drama. The plot has Jimmy Stewart, a pro-fessional photographer, re-cuperating from a broken leg and conﬁned to a wheel-chair in his apartment. Mr. Stewart watches his neigh-bors through their open windows during a heat wave to pass the time, believing it to be innocent fun. Until he thinks he witnesses a mur-der. This ﬁlm was also pre-served by the National Film Registry in 1997.The theatre plans on a half-hour break between shows and will add Kristy’s Kafe pizza by the slice to their concession stand menu for Hitchcock enthusiasts who want to experience both ﬁlms. The theatre will utilize digitally remastered copies to enhance your mov-ie experience. So, grab your friends and family, and don’t miss out on your chance to witness two ﬁlm classics on the big screen, as it’s been over sixty years since they debuted at the Historic An-thony Theatre.City Approves $3 Million BASE Grant Concrete Bid For Sunrise 2nd ProjectOfﬁcial Meeting MinutesRegular MeetingSubmitted ByCity of Anthony ClerkJune 6, 2023OPENINGWelcome / Call to Or-der.

Pursuant to the Kansas Fireﬁghters Relief Act, $16,863,037.79 has been distributed among 554 local FRAs throughout the state. “Fireﬁghters put their lives on the line to keep us safe, and the Kansas Fireﬁghters Relief Act ac-knowledges that by provid-ing additional protections for ﬁreﬁghters and their loved ones,” said Schmidt. “The Act not only gives ﬁrst responders needed safety nets, but it also allows lo-cal communities to provide their citizens with im-proved ﬁreﬁghting equip-ment and resources.” The funds from the Kan-sas Fireﬁghters Relief Act are generated by a two percent tax paid by insur-ance companies on ﬁre and lightning insurance pre-miums written in Kansas. Associations primarily use their distributed funds for insurance premiums and safety enhancements. The relief funds may pay for the health, accident, dis-ability, and life insurance premiums of local ﬁreﬁght-ers.

Throughout the Indepen-dence Day holiday and weekend, law enforcement ofﬁcials will focus on im-proving roadway safety for those traveling across the state as part of the Kansas Department of Transporta-tion’s annual safety cam-paign.KDOT, the Kansas Turnpike Authority and the Kansas Highway Patrol also encourage motorists to concentrate on safe driving habits and plan ahead be-fore the festivities begin.“Remember to celebrate safely this upcoming holi-day weekend,” said Cap-tain Candice Breshears, Kansas Highway Patrol. “Please make sure you and Drive Responsibly This IndependenceDay: Buzzed Driving Is Drunk Drivingyour loved ones are always buckled up when you get in a vehicle, and don’t drive impaired or distracted. If you plan on drinking over the weekend, make ar-rangements to get home safely by designating your sober driver before you cel-ebrate.”According to KDOT, the state recorded a total of 2,158 alcohol-related crash-es in 2021, with 86 people losing their lives in those crashes. These crashes can happen any time of day, but more than three-fourths of the ones involving alcohol in 2021 occurred at night."Anytime you are oper-ating a vehicle, it’s always a priority to focus on driving safely,” said Vanessa Spar-tan, KDOT Transportation Safety Bureau Chief. “And with many Fourth of July activities taking place at night, it’s an especially im-portant time to pay atten-tion to the roadway and be aware of other motorists.”Drivers with a blood al-cohol concentration (BAC) above Kansas’ legal limit of .08% are considered alco-hol-impaired by law. How-ever, a small amount of al-cohol is considered buzzed driving because it can affect a person’s ability to drive. Across the United States in 2021, there were 2,226 peo-ple killed in alcohol-related crashes where the driver had a BAC between .01% to .07%, according to the National Highway Trafﬁc Safety Administration.“We encourage drivers to plan ahead to minimize summer travel stress,” said Steve Hewitt, Kansas Turnpike Authority CEO. “Besides having an emer-gency kit with extra water in your vehicle, a K-TAG makes travel easy and con-venient. With a K-TAG, you can move through toll zones without stopping, which improves overall safety, and it also works in Oklahoma, Texas and near-ly all of Florida.”For assistance on a Kan-sas highway, call KHP at *47 (HP) or *582 (KTA) for the Kansas Turnpike.

Just look for the Eagle Eye Contest form on the front page of the Anthony Republican the third week of each month.An Evening Of History Includes Movie And BirthdayCelebration, Coming July 8 To The Anthony TheatreOn Saturday July 8th, 2023 the Anthony Theatre will present a three part evening to remember! The evening will begin at 6 pm with a special presenta-tion by local historian Jim Bales and author Amber Countryman when they bring to you the story of a “once popular local re-sort area” named Drury, Kansas. Once called the playground of Kansas and Oklahoma, you ask, ‘Where is Drury, Kansas?’ The once popular tourist spot is located a short distance east of Caldwell, Kansas alongside the old cement 81 highway. You will know you are there when you see the remains of what used to be a beautiful old mill along-side a hand laid rock dam. Jim will be showing his sce-nic collection of what made Drury, Kansas a place to remember on the Theatre’s big screen. In the 1920’s it was the site of a very large elegant 46 room hotel built out over the local Chikaskia River, the place to stay and dine while enjoying the beautiful sights of Drury. The Southwestern Rail-road passed through this area and it was said that former President Eisen-hower would ask the train to stop to view this very sce-nic area. You won’t want to miss the scenes when disas-ter hits the popular resort area and almost places an end to this tourist attrac-tion. To this day people still come to this location to build their cabins upon the banks of the Chikaskia Riv-er. Jim Bale’s documentary will provide great pictures that will cover many more of the establishments that made this area so popular. You won’t want to miss this story in pictures on the big screen of a nearby location that once attracted so many tourists.Part two of the evening will be the showing of the movie “Americana”. In 1973, Drury, Kansas once again came back to life when movie actor David Carradine and Barbara Hershey chose Drury to be the very location for ﬁlming the entire movie “Around”. In 1983 the movie was re-named “Americana” . It in-volves the life of a Viet Nam Veteran that returns home to the States and is wanting to ﬁnd his place in life again when David Carradine came upon the Drury, Kan-sas location and found this quaint location perfect to produce, edit and direct this entire ﬁlm based on his obsession to return a di-lapidated carousel into run-ning once again. The ﬁlm-ing of this movie aroused the curiosity of many local residents. “I have to admit, even my family got curious, BarBara Wright shares, “as on the day they were want-ing locals for a particular shoot, my husband , son and brother-in-law ended up in one of the scenes. Yours truly was also sup-posed to be a part of a par-ticular scene and didn’t re-alize talking was prohibited and would you believe, I lost my part in the making of this movie!!! “And last but not least, the third part of the eve-ning, BarBara Wright, wants you all to be a part of the fact that age 90 has ar-rived much to her surprise. On July 9th BarBara turns 90 and this is her way of cel-ebrating, the night before, with you, the community, her friends and her wonder-ful family. As a child she lived a short distance from Drury, Kansas and to this day, if all is well, you just might get invited to take a road trip to Drury to hear how her Grandfather and the family all played mu-sical instruments and on Sunday afternoon The Bu-resh Orchestra would be asked to play on the bal-cony of the elegant Drury Hotel that over looked the Chikaskia River. BarBara was told her Mother, Pau-line (Buresh) Vavra was her father’s lead singer for the Buresh Orchestra.BarBara Wright is really looking forward to seeing you at the Anthony Theatre to enjoy this FREE admis-sion event on Saturday July 8th 2023. Doors will open at 5:30 pm. In place of Birthday cake, you will be treated to a FREE SMALL Popcorn! Your presence will be a gift BarBara will cher-ish for a long time.
