KS HB2769

Voting members appointed to governing bodies of subordinate service taxing areas must be residents of that area if the municipality imposes property taxes on residents or authorizes the governing body to establish budgets and expenditures for public services.

Non-resident members of such governing bodies may serve only as nonvoting members.

The residency requirement applies to appointed members only; elected members of governing bodies are exempt from this provision.

Applies to municipalities (cities, counties, or unified city and county governments) that create subordinate service taxing areas, including county service taxing districts under K.S.A. 19-121.

Takes effect upon publication in the statute book.
