12-2104.Payment of cost of refuse collection; tax levy, use of proceeds;
service charges; issuance of bonds for land or equipment; protest petition
and election.
The governing body may (a) pay the cost out of the general fund or other
proper fund or may levy an annual tax upon all taxable tangible property
in the city to pay the cost 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; (b) provide service charges
to be paid by those receiving service, which charges may be graduated
according to the amount of garbage or trash of the
party receiving the service and the frequency of collection, with
penalties for failure to pay when due; or (c) pay a part of the
expense out of the general fund or other proper fund and by such a tax
levy and the rest by service charges. When service is provided as a
municipal function and funds are insufficient for the purchase of
equipment, the acquiring of land and the construction of buildings,
incinerators or other structures, bonds may be issued
payable by a general tax or by revenue from service charges, but no
bonds shall be issued until a resolution is adopted by the governing
body providing for the issue thereof and the same is published
once each week for two consecutive weeks in the official city newspaper.
After the adoption of such resolution
such bonds may be issued unless a petition in opposition to the same,
filed by not less than 5% of the electors of such city,
is filed with the county election officer within 30 days
following the publication of the resolution. If such petition
is filed, the governing body shall submit the question to the voters at
an election called for such purpose or at the next general city
election. If authorized by the favorable vote of a majority of those
voting on the proposition at the election, such bonds may be issued.
