Haysville will begin burning brush in the field just south of the Public Works Department, located at 401 S. Jane on Tuesday, January 14th. Even though the fires are scheduled to be burning 24 hours a day, the process may still take 90 days to complete. This is due, in part, to the huge quantity of brush collected after the now-infamous straight-line winds blew through town in June of 2013.
Citizens in potentially affected areas of town have received individual notifications. Anyone with questions about the burn can contact Public Works at (316) 529-5900.
We thank our citizens in advance for their continued support of the great things happening here in Haysville!

We added a new little piece of Haysville history to the collection today. This is an 8×10 photo of what I believe to be a City of Wichita bus, parked at the old Wichita transit building on West 10th street in Wichita. On the bus is an ad for the Haysville Motor company in “Downtown Haysville” which was just North of Grand (71st) on Main (Seneca) on the East side of the street.
In this old photo you can see the H from the original sign to Haysville Motor company.

Do you remember that time that Haysville burned or when burglars blew open the safe at the Jones & Davidman store? Probably not as it happened well before our time.
I learned of these happenings and a lot more about Haysvilles interesting past after many hours scouring through hundreds & hundreds of news articles from the late 1800s and early 1900s. I invite you to browse the many pages of news clippings we have which are just part of our Haysville History Database.
