objections to plan; revised plan, when.
The board of directors of a port authority shall prepare or cause to be
prepared plans for the future development, construction, improvement and
utilization of ports within its area of jurisdiction and its facilities,
including such maps,
profiles, and other data and descriptions as may be necessary to set
forth the location and character of the work to be undertaken by the
port authority. Upon the completion of any such plan the board of directors
shall cause notice by publication as provided in K.S.A. 12-3401, and amendments
thereto, to be
given in each county in which there is a political subdivision
participating in the port authority and in which any proposed
facility is to be located, and shall likewise
cause notice to be served upon the owners of the uplands contiguous to
any submerged lands affected by any such plan in the manner provided by law
for service of notice in the levy of special assessments by cities or
counties, and shall permit the inspection thereof at their office by all
persons interested. The notice shall fix the time and place for the
hearing of all objections to the plan, which shall be not less than 30 nor
more than 60 days after the last publication of such notice and after service
of notice upon the owners of such uplands.
Any interested person may file written objections to such plan, provided
such objections are filed with the secretary of the board of directors
at the office of the secretary not less than five days prior to the date fixed
for the hearing. Objections to the plan by 20% or more
of the persons owning real property contiguous to the real property contained
in the proposed plan
shall require
the affirmative vote of at least 3/4 of all of the members of the board
of directors for the adoption of the plan with any modifications or amendments
thereto as an official plan of the port authority.
