and firefighting equipment; tax levies, use of proceeds; protest petition
and election; investment of fund.
The governing body of any city proclaimed by the governor as a city of
the first class not more than five years preceding the effective date of
this act or hereafter and the governing body of any city of the second
and third class is hereby authorized to make an annual tax levy of not
to exceed two mills upon all the taxable tangible property in the city
for the purpose of creating and providing a special fund to be used for
law enforcement purposes or for the purchase of ambulance equipment or
fire-fighting equipment, or both, for such city and to pay a portion of the
principal and interest on bonds issued by such city under the authority
of K.S.A. 12-1774 and amendments thereto. No city shall
make an annual levy under the provisions of this section until the
governing body of such city has adopted a resolution authorizing the
making of such levy. Such resolution shall be published once each week
for two consecutive weeks in the official city newspaper. After publication,
an annual levy may be made unless a petition requesting an election
upon the proposition of levying the tax, signed by not less than 5%
of the qualified electors of the city, is filed with the
county election officer within 30 days following the date of
the last publication of the resolution. If such a petition is
filed, no such annual levy shall be made without such proposition having
been submitted to and having been approved by a majority of the electors
voting thereon at the next primary or general election, or if such
primary or general election does not take place within 60 days
after the date the petition was filed, at a special election called and
held thereon. All such special elections shall be called and held in the
manner prescribed for the calling and holding of elections under the
general bond law. The governing body may invest any
portion of such special fund which is not currently needed in
investments authorized by K.S.A. 12-1675 and amendments
thereto in the manner prescribed therein or in any obligation of any
county, township, city or school district which has a
bonded indebtedness not exceeding 15%
of its total assessed
valuation.
