In light of the recent surge in COVID-19 cases in Johnson County and the United States, effective January 11th Mayor Roberts has declared a state of local disaster emergency as prescribed by Kansas Statute. With this declaration the City of Edgerton is postponing city-sponsored recreation programs, community events and rentals of Community Hall in an effort to slow the spread of COVID-19.

“Keeping our community safe is our top priority,” states Mayor Donald Roberts. “We are hopeful that by temporarily postponing city-sponsored community events and recreation programming we can quickly slow the recent surge of COVID-19.”
