BEL AIRE, KANSAS: HISTORY AND FUN FACTS

The stream represents water which had been an issue from the beginning. Farmers began to settle in this area as early as the 1860s when government officials began opening more Indian lands. In the early 1950s, Tom Pearson, a wrestling Coach from Oklahoma, was intrigued with the development in the area that is now Bel Aire. He decided to purchase some land and start a farm, but he needed a reliable water supply. Pearson went to the City of Wichita asking to be part of their water system but received a sharp rejection. In 1955, several neighbors in the area went to Sedgwick County and petitioned to create an improvement district for water. Less than 30 years later, the City of Wichita and what is now the City of Bel Aire had a legal battle lasting 2 years over Bel Aire’s ability to incorporate as a town. The Case was taken to the Kansas Supreme Court where it was deemed that Bel Aire had the right to incorporate as a city in Kansas. The wheat fields were part of the surrounding landscape. In the early 1980s when the seal was conceived, Bel Aire had a total population of less than 2,500 people. In the late 60s, someone from this area would have to drive to 13th and Woodlawn for a hamburger at McDonalds or to go shopping (Sweetbriar shopping center). The closed movie theater at that time was at the drive-in in Park City, which is also where the closed grocery store was located. There was a convenience store—Shopeze— located at 45th and Woodlawn , which became the hang out place for many local teenagers. Between the late 60s and early 80s not much had changed as far as retail development near Bel Aire. Instead of shopping centers and office buildings, the citizens of Bel Aire were surrounded with farmland and wheat fields, which is exactly why they moved out here to begin with. These individuals were looking for the values and lifestyle of country living with the closeness of the bigger city.

Hannah S

Benjamin Franklin Plumbing did an excellent job installing my garbage disposal. They were the first company to get back to me when I was requesting a quote. They gave me a quote over the phone, and their prices were straightforward and extremely reasonable. Jacob Morris did a great job. He was fast, cleaned up everything, and even provided some helpful information for future garbage disposal purchases. I highly recommend this company and only wish I had found them sooner.

Marlisse Quijada

I called a month ago for an issue, they came out gave a free estimate and gave advice to try and repair on own. They checked on us to make sure we didn't have any more issues. We called them back out due to the same issue, they came out again and David provided excellent service. I was expecting an astronomical bill but they were so affordable I will definitely be using them in the future for any of our plumbing issues!!!

Ian G

I had a pretty major plumbing issues throughout the whole house. It was due to really poor plumbing work done by the previous owners of the house and it just kept causing more and more issues until we had a catastrophic break and standing water in the crawl space. I was able to get Evan out the same day I called and he fearlessly got in the crawl space and investigated the issues. Turns out we needed our entire plumbing repiped due to leaks and properly set up to promote better drainage I had great service from the whole team that came out include Shawn and Mitchell. Mitchell went above and beyond to explain everything and make our lives easier while we were dealing with a repair that needed several days to repair. Ill be contacting this company forst for any future plumbing needs. I'll tell you that for free.

I had a great experience with Josh installing my new water heater. From start to finish, he was professional, knowledgeable, and easy to work with. He showed up on time, explained the process clearly, and made sure everything was installed safely and efficiently. Josh took the time to answer my questions and made sure the area was clean before he left. The installation went smoothly, and the new water heater is working perfectly. It’s clear he takes pride in his work and cares about doing the job right. If you’re looking for someone reliable and skilled for a water heater installation, I highly recommend Josh and his services. Great workmanship and excellent customer service!

Had a pipe leak in my front yard and lance Morton showed up and was very professional and an amazing guy. He found the leak quickly and got it fixed better than new. The whole company is amazing and awesome and so professional and awesome. Highly recommend and if you get lance you are getting an amazing guy.

Danniel Lewis

Had a leak where the water came in the house from an outdoor tankless water heater. I thought he was going to cut half the siding out from around. He only cut about a 2” square section out, hardly noticeable. The plumber, Traise was knowledgeable and efficient. I’d use him again. Price did seem a little high but it needed to be done and at least it was done right. Thanks!

I was out of H20, Jerry and his assistant were right on time and did a superb job in restoring a vital supply. I commend their efforts and wish the "Yankee best in show." His tattooed man showed admirable skills and left a pristine work space. Jesus love them for their attentiveness to task. I
