Chapter 12.--CITIES AND MUNICIPALITIES


Article 17.--BUILDINGS, STRUCTURES AND GROUNDS

     
12-17,171.   Addition or removal of real property
within district; division of district; procedure.

(a) Any addition of area to the STAR bond project district,
or any substantial change as defined in
K.S.A. 2009 Supp.
12-17,162, and amendments thereto, to the STAR bond project
district plan shall
be subject to the same procedure for
public notice and hearing as is required for the establishment of the STAR bond
project district.

     
(b)   A city or county may remove real property from a STAR bond project
district by an ordinance or resolution of
the governing body respectively.

     
(c)   A city or county may divide the real property in a STAR bond project
district, including real property in
different project areas within a STAR bond project district, into separate STAR
bond project districts. Any division of real property within a STAR bond
project
district into more than one STAR bond
project district shall be subject to the
same procedure of public notice and hearing as is required for the
establishment of the STAR bond project district.

     
(d)   If a city or county has undertaken a STAR bond project within a STAR bond
project district, and either the city or county wishes to subsequently
remove more than a de minimus amount of real property from the STAR bond
project district, or the city or county
wishes to subsequently divide the real property in the STAR bond project
district into more than one STAR bond
project district, then prior to any such
removal or division the city or county must provide a feasibility study which
shows that the tax revenue from the resulting STAR bond project district within
which the STAR bond project is located
is expected to be sufficient to pay the project costs.

     
(e)   Removal of real property from one STAR bond project district and addition
of all or a portion of that real
property to another STAR bond project district may be accomplished by the
adoption of an ordinance or resolution, and
in such event the determination of the existence or nonexistence of an adverse
effect on the county or school district under subsection (f) of K.S.A. 2009
Supp. 12-17,165, and
amendments thereto, shall apply to both such removal and such addition of real
property to a STAR bond project district.
