Stormy future for Kansas school finance plan
The Kansas legislature mulls a sweeping school finance revision after an 8-8 tie. The package would raise the state sales tax from 3 to 5 percent, exempt grocery food, keep farm machinery at 3 percent, and cut property taxes for schools by about 200 million dollars annually. It would shift funding to equalize district contributions and raise overall funding to about 890 million next year with 375 million from income tax, 220 million from sales, and the rest from other sources and local property taxes.
