BNSF will be completing a crossing rehabilitation project on the Main Street crossing this Thursday and Friday (Sept. 11–12).
A traffic control plan is being developed, and truck traffic will be routed to Halstead Rd off Hwy 50 during the project.
Thank you for your patience while this work is completed!
Reminder: Door-to-Door Solicitation Requires a Permit
The City of Halstead would like to remind all residents that ANY door-to-door sales or solicitation is strictly prohibited unless the individual/company has first obtained a solicitation permit from the City.
As part of the permit process, the City conducts a criminal background check and verifies the legitimacy of any roofing companies with the Kansas Attorney General’s Office.
If someone approaches your property for solicitation or sales purposes:
✅ You have the right to request to see their City-issued permit.
🚫 If they cannot provide valid documentation, please call 911 immediately so that a Halstead Police Officer can respond and inform the individual of the legal requirements.
Your cooperation helps us keep our community safe, ensures businesses operate within the law, and protects residents from potential scams and fraudulent activity.
