Classification ruling fixes 1989 tax classification date
Kansas Attorney General Robert T. Stephan says the property classification amendment takes effect January 1, 1989, even if statewide reappraisal is not finished. He notes legislative intent was to implement on that date, with counties applying the amendment’s assessment rates to current valuations. The 1985 Legislature ordered reappraisal to reduce county disparities and update values.
