KS may remove limits on your property taxes

TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) Kansas is moving toward eliminating limits on local property taxes in favor of a proposal aimed at requiring officials to be more transparent about upcoming levies.

Many lawmakers don’t think current limits are effective, and the Senate voted 39-0 on Tuesday to approve a bill described by supporters as a local tax transparency measure. It goes next to the House. The bill would repeal a local tax lid pushed through the Republican-controlled Legislature by conservative lawmakers in 2015.

Cities and counties would be required to send notices to all taxpayers if they intend to raise more money from property taxes in the coming year.
