Calling Harvey Keitel

Over the next few weeks, we’ll be informing you on Robert Layton’s approach to business development in Wichita – once he accepts the Wichita City Council’s offer to become city manager.

It’s an offer that’s being discussed in every Wichita boardroom today, and not without some tongue-in-cheek thought.

One person I talked to laughed about the clear, conflict-laden split on the council between Layton and Sedgwick County Manager Bill Buchanan.

“It’s kinda like the scene in ‘Pulp Fiction.’ Can’t you just imagine them calling in Harvey Keitel (cleanup expert Winston Wolf in the movie) to clean up the mess in the board room?”

    I have a feeling that with this new guy at the City and Peterjohn over at the County that local government will be really fun to watch this year.

    Perhaps we can get some new blood at the Cith Council this year …
