The first Park City was founded in 1870. Located 14 miles (23 km) to the northwest of Wichita, it was at first a formidable rival, but it risked all on the county seat and lost. When the railroad bypassed it and came to Wichita, the town died, and its houses were moved to Wichita, Newton, and Hutchinson. [5]
The current Park City began as the Park City Improvement District in 1953. The District grew from a quarter section of farmland purchased by developers into a 3,321-acre (13.44 km2) community.[6] After the approval of the Sedgwick County Board of Commissioners, Park City became a third class city on November 26, 1980. The new city held a special election on February 17, 1981, in which Raymond J. Reiss was elected mayor along with five council members to form the first governing body.[7]
The first and only newspaper Park City has had was The Park City Newsdropper. It ran for a year in 1980 and its publisher was Jerrie Molina, the city's first City Clerk.
Hartman Arena, a privately constructed and owned arena from local developer Wink Hartman, opened in March 2009 and serves as the home of the Wichita Wings indoor soccer and Wichita Regulators Arena Football League team.[8]
