small-town friendliness, safety, and "family", while also providing
access to services and amenities normally associated with communities
much larger.
Halstead, which occupies
a land area of just over one square mile, is located approximately
ten minutes west of Newton, Kansas, via US-50 and K-89 highways;
about 25 minutes east of Hutchinson on US-50; and about 30 minutes
northwest of Wichita, which is a metropolitan area of approximately
400,000 in population. The population of Halstead is 2,085.
Halstead
is a "city of the second class" under Kansas statutes, but has
retained the "city of the third class" governance plan that provides
for an elected mayor who serves a two-year term, and five council
members elected at-large for two and four-year terms, which are
determined by the vote outcome. Management of the city is delegated
to a city administrator, hired by the governing body.
