Bill > SB73

This bill modifies several deadlines related to property tax administration in Kansas. Specifically, it moves the deadline for county clerks to transmit tax levy statements to the director of property valuation from November 15 to November 1, and changes the deadline for mailing tax statements to taxpayers from December 15 to December 1. The bill also introduces a new provision that if a taxing subdivision (such as a school district or city) fails to submit its budget information to the county clerk by 5:00 p.m. on October 1, the county clerk will automatically use the previous year's budget information and tax levy amount. This helps ensure that the budgeting and tax collection process can continue even if a local government misses its filing deadline. The changes are intended to create earlier and more consistent deadlines for tax-related administrative processes, potentially giving local governments and taxpayers more time to prepare and plan for property tax assessments. The bill amends several sections of Kansas tax law and will take effect upon publication in the state statute book.
