As of May 19, 2008 Branches can no longer be dropped off by the Maintenance Shed.  This will allow for work to be done on the soccer field.  You can drop off Branches at the SE corner of the Sewer Pond the third Saturday of each month from 8AM to 10AM. Thank you for your cooperation!

A Big Welcome to our new Assistant City Clerk, Kit Bostrom!

Overbrook PRIDE is trying to launch a recycling program in Overbrook.  If you are interested, please fill out this survey. You can drop completed surveys at City Hall or email your answers to recycling@overbrookks.com

Please do not flush shop or other heavy duty towels!  They are causing clogging at the wastewater lagoon system and disrupting wastewater treatment.  Your cooperation is appreciated.

The next regular Council Meeting is on July 8th, 2009, at City Hall in Overbrook.       Here is the  agenda. 

Joshua Excavating, LLC of Grandview, MO, has essentially completed Phase 1 of the Sewer Rehabilitation Project.  If you have any issues regarding the project, please contact City Hall.

WELCOME to the Overbrook, Kansas website...                                       

Overbrook is built on the old Santa Fe Trail (now US56);  located  SE of Topeka approximately 20 miles, or SW of Lawrence-   25 miles. As you drive down Highway 56 you will be greeted today,    as in years past, with the old water tower boasting our slogan  “Don’t Overlook Overbrook.” We are a small farming community, rich in heritage, and wealthy in the spirit of community life.

Our town is privileged to have two banks, a dental office, medical clinic, barber shop, beauty salons, a large grocery store, quilting shop, flower shop, restaurants & cafés, a new lumber yard,  an excellent library, a newly enlarged swimming pool, a 24-hour nursing home along with assisted living apartments, and a community retirement center.  Our new 8 acre fishing lake sits on the east side of town just off Highway 56. It has been well stocked and is now ready for the beginner and experienced angler. Jones Park is just south of the lake and is active most evenings with the cheers of our hometown baseball and softball teams. The beautiful  9-hole golf course west of town is host to many area golfers and visitors.

As you can see, we have numerous small businesses, a great school system, and a number of churches, which together creates a self-sustaining city with a hometown atmosphere for visitors, as well as for those living in Overbrook. We enjoy meeting new friends, so stop by if you're driving down Highway 56, and see for yourself why so many of our young people have returned to their hometown  to raise their families and...                                                                        Don't Overlook Overbrook!
