Brownback taps ROZ plan to spur rural Kansas growth
Gov. Sam Brownback pushes a five year tax and loan payoff program for 50 rural counties aiming to halt population loss and attract young workers. The Rural Opportunity Zones offer a five year state income tax waiver for movers and up to 15000 in college loan repayment, funded jointly with counties. Local officials react cautiously while experts question the plan’s effectiveness amid broader urbanization trends.
