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.

Joe Crisci

AJ was on time, friendly and knowledgeable about the problem. He explained everything to me and gave me three quotes. And he was patient and allowed me to choose which plan to go with. Thus company has been great for me and I highly recommend them. Most of all, I called them after 100 pm. The lady told me that she could have a plumber to me between 200 pm and 600 pm. He did arrive early and took less time than he told me it would take.

Nora Schallenberger

I called One Air Heating for a second opinion on my furnace drama. I have battling it since the first of December with another company. First off the second opinion was free! I did not know that! How Wonderful for this old lady! Cody came out same day....what a great guy and very knowledgeable of my furnace unit. After explaining my troubles, and he listened to all of them, he looked at the thermostat and the the unit. Turned out I need a control board, which of course, is back ordered. So.....he did a temporary fix, and checked to see if they had any boards at all for the unit in case the fix doesn't hold. Found an old board, but have decided to wait if the temporary fails. He came out on the 21st and as of the 24th, its still working. He even gave me his number and said if any problems give him a call. He even texted on friday to check in. Great Service for sure, I'm glad I called their number for the second opinion. Thanks so much Cody!

Jacob Kissiah

Excellent service. My water heater started pouring water. So i started calling around to find a plumber that would come and fix it same day. After 10 calls around i found Benjamin Franklin. They sent someone within the hour and before day was done i had a brand new water heater and my house was brought up to code! Thank you Ronnie, David and Jay. Extremely professional and tidy!

Judy Eaton

Ryan was very competent and thorough. Although all I really wanted was my toilet to work again he made some very good observations throughout my house of things needing work. He presented pros and cons and didn't feel overly pressured to do anything. His work was done right away and he left no mess. I will definitely call him in the future.
