Real Estate Tax Re appraisal Fight Denied by Board
The Kansas Board of Tax Appeals unanimously rejected the request to reappraise Sedgwick Ford and Rice counties and to equalize all 105 counties. The decision cited legislative supremacy and noted statewide reappraisal is needed to meet constitutional uniformity and equity. The suit, filed in 1983 by a Small Business Trust and Lyons former state senator Janssen, spurred calls for reform and overhauls to real estate assessment standards.

Kassebaum Pushes Bigger Farm Loan Guarantees
Sen. Nancy Kassebaum proposes raising Agriculture Department loan guarantees from 630 million to 4 billion and adding staff at Farmers Home Administration to speed loan processing.

She warns Congress and the president must act within 90 days to avoid worsening farm and rural economy ripples.
