Itasca Township is one of the thirteen townships of Sherman County, Kansas, United States. The population was 321 at the 2000 census.[1]
Located in the center of the county, it borders the following townships:
It lies south of the county seat of Goodland. While part of Goodland lies within the township's original boundaries,[2] the city is not part of the township.[3] There are no communities in the township proper.
The intermittent source of the south fork of Sappa Creek is located in Itasca Township.
Interstate 70 and U.S. Route 24 run east–west through Itasca Township, while its western border with Logan Township is occupied by the north–south K-27. A small airport lies in the northern part of the township. A railroad line also travels east–west through Itasca Township, just north of the interstate.
As an active township, Itasca Township is governed by a three-member board, composed of the township trustee, the township treasurer, and the township clerk. The trustee acts as the township executive.[4]
