Bill Summary
AN ACT concerning sales and compensating use tax; relating to city and countywide retailers' sales tax; providing countywide retailers' sales tax authority for Butler county for the purpose of providing property tax relief; amending K.S.A. 2025 Supp. 12-187, 12-189 and 12-192 and repealing the existing sections.
AI Summary
This bill allows Butler County to impose a countywide retailers' sales tax, which is a tax on the sale of goods and services, at a rate of 0.25%, 0.5%, 0.75%, or 1%. The revenue generated from this tax is to be used for property tax relief, meaning it will help reduce the amount of property taxes residents have to pay. The tax will expire after five years from when it is first collected, but it can be extended for additional five-year periods if Butler County voters approve it in subsequent elections. This change is being made by amending existing Kansas laws that govern city and county sales taxes, and the bill also repeals those existing sections, meaning the new provisions will replace them.
