According to Wikipedia, Olathe (meaning beautiful in Indian language) is the fourth largest city in the Kansas City Metropolitan Area. In the 1800's, "Olathe served as a stop on the Oregon Trail, the California Trail, and the Santa Fe Trail...After the construction of the transcontinental railroad, the trails to the west lost importance, and Olathe faded into obscurity and remained a small, sleepy prairie town.
"In the 1950s, the construction of the Interstate Highway system and, more directly, I-35, linked Olathe directly to nearby Kansas City. The result was tremendous residential growth as Olathe became a part of the Kansas City Metro Area. In the 1980s, Olathe experienced tremendous commercial growth, which also drew more residents. It is estimated that Olathe's population surpassed 100,000 in 2001..."

It is obvious from the numbers the demise of the bank is the real estate bubble hit the bank hard, particularly what are known as nonfarm nonresidential loans, as well as construction and land loans.
Here is a definition to better understand what happened to First National Bank of Olathe:
“Loans secured by other nonfarm nonresidential properties” are those nonfarm nonresidential property loans where the primary source of repayment is derived from rental income associated with the property (i.e., loans for which 50 percent or more of the source of repayment comes from third party, nonaffiliated, rental income) or the proceeds of the sale, refinancing, or permanent financing of the property. Include loans secured by hotels, motels, dormitories, nursing homes, assisted-living facilities, mini-storage warehouse facilities, and similar properties in this item as loans secured by other nonfarm nonresidential properties."
