The Prairie Band Potawatomi Nation will host two in-person town hall meetings to discuss new economic development opportunities for the Nation. Two key items will include the newly formed Prairie Band Ag, LLC and the 150/75 Project.

The town halls are open to enrolled PBPN members age 18 and over. Both meetings will be held at the Old Bingo Hall, located at 16277 Q Road, Mayetta, KS. The first town hall will take place on Thursday, March 25, 2021, from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. The second town hall will occur on Saturday, April 10, 2021, from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. Attendees will be required to wear a mask and screen at entry.

Prairie Band Ag, LLC is the latest subsidiary of Prairie Band, LLC and will provide information and gather feedback for potential future plans.

The development of the area near 150th road and highway 75, known as the 150/75 Project, was initially approved by the Prairie Band Potawatomi Nation general council in July 2008. Since then, the project has been identified as a starting point for the newly formed Economic Development Investment Committee.
