Resolutions by Kansas taxpayers group target building fund levies
Officials of the Kansas Federation of Taxpayers adopted resolutions for the 1970 Kansas Legislature. They seek repeal of a law allowing government and school agencies to create building fund levies without voter approval, requiring all such levies be submitted to voters first. The group also urges shifting from property taxes to an income or earnings tax.
