State tax receipts beat estimates in November
Kansas tax collections for November totaled 103.9 million, about 2.7 percent above the 101.2 million experts projected. Officials caution this is not a sign of a lasting fiscal turnaround, noting the gain may include prior-month funds and that an allotment system is still needed to curb spending. Governor Carlin says the results keep them on target and notes the plan to implement the allotment system begins January 1.

The bipartisan vote also backed higher highway use taxes for heavy trucks in exchange for looser size and weight limits, with exemptions for buses and taxi owners paying full or reduced rates.
