12-1617h.Securing industries in or near cities; tax levy, use of proceeds;
election required; resubmission, when; use of general fund or other revenue sources.
Cities are hereby authorized to levy annually upon all the
taxable tangible property within the city a tax for the purpose
of creating a fund to be
used in securing or retaining industries or manufacturing institutions for such
city
or near its environs 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 such levy shall be made until
the governing body is instructed to do so by
a majority of all the votes cast on this proposition at an election held at any
city or general election.
Such election shall be held as provided by law for bond elections. If any
such city shall not make such tax
levy in any year, after the third year following the approval of such
tax levy by the voters, then it shall be necessary to resubmit the issue
to the voters before any such tax levy shall be imposed again.
Nothing in this section shall be construed as restricting the authority
of cities to utilize the general fund or other revenue sources for the
purpose of promoting or securing the location or expansion of business and
industry.
