City seeks opinion on liquor tax use for drug investigations
Garden City officials asked the attorney general whether liquor tax receipts may fund a city county drug investigations program. AFAC opposes using the liquor tax fund for the program, which includes two investigators and a $4,500 city and county share each, including $2,500 for drug buys. The AFAC letter argues the project is primarily drug enforcement, not alcohol related, prompting the legal opinion request.
