Bill Summary

A PROPOSITION to amend section 1 of article 11 of the constitution of the state of Kansas; relating to property taxation; decreasing the assessment percentage used for determining the assessed value of real property used for residential purposes and mobile homes used for residential purposes from 111/2% to 9%.

AI Summary

This resolution proposes to amend the Kansas Constitution to lower the assessment percentage used to calculate the taxable value of residential real property and mobile homes used for residential purposes from 11.5% to 9%. Property taxation in Kansas involves an assessment percentage, which is applied to the market value of property to determine its assessed value, and this assessed value is then used to calculate property taxes. By reducing this percentage for residential properties and mobile homes, the intention is to decrease the property tax burden on these types of properties. This change requires approval by two-thirds of both the Kansas Senate and House of Representatives, and then by the voters of Kansas in an upcoming election.
