There are no statutory obstacles to an election commissioner also holding the office of mayor of a city of the second class. Moreover, the common law doctrine of incompatibility of offices does not preclude such simultaneous incumbencies.

Book Description
A request for notice of public meetings remains valid indefinitely, at least for a reasonable period of time. No written statement is required to withdraw a request for notice, although such written withdrawal would be advisable. No charge may be made for the providing of notice of public meetings. Requests for notice are to be honored regardless of residency of the requester. And the death of the requester permits the governmental unit to cease providing such notice, except where the deceased person had requested notice as a representative of an organization or known individuals. Cited herein: K.S.A. 75-4317, K.S.A. 1980 Supp. 45-204, 75-4318.

Book Description
Unlike Kansas cities and counties which exercise constitutional or statutory "home rule" powers, school districts are creatures of statute and, as such, enjoy only those powers expressly conferred, by law, together with those implied powers which are necessary for the effective exercise and discharge of the powers and duties expressly conferred. No statutory authority exists, either expressly conferred or necessarily implied, authorizing the expenditure of school districts funds to contribute to a lobbying effort on a proposed state-wide severance tax. Cited herein: K.S.A. 1980 Supp. 19-101a, K.S.A. 19-101c, 72-1612, 72-1623, 72-5326, 72-8205, Kan. Const., Art. 12, section 5.

Book Description
Through the imposition of fines for unlawful conduct, K.S.A. 1980 Supp. 8-1901(d) imposes criminal liability. In addition, subsection (a) of that statute does not appear to violate the United States Constitution's Equal Protection Clause, although it only imposes liability upon a limited class of persons. Moreover, that subsection appears to convey a sufficiently definite warning as to the conduct proscribed therein, so as to avoid being unconstitutionally vague and uncertain. Cited herein: K.S.A. 1980 Supp. 8-1901, 8-1909, K.S.A. 8-2116, 8-2204, 21-3105, K.S.A. 1980 Supp. 21-4503, U.S. Const., Amend. XIV.

Book Description
To be consistent with requirements of the United States Constitution, the provisions of K.S.A. 72-5393 can, and must, be construed as neither requiring nor authorizing the provision of therapeutic psychological and speech and hearing services, at public expense and by public employees, on parochial school premises. Instead, said provisions must be construed as requiring that such services be provided at the "truly religiously neutral locations" specified in the statute, i.̲e̲.̲, in the public schools of the school district, in public centers, or in mobile units located off the parochial school premises. Cited herein: K.S.A. 72-5392, 73-5393, U.S. Const., Amend. I, XIV.

Book Description
In light of well-established rules of statutory construction, the literal import of the provisions of subsection (k) of K.S.A. 66-1,109 must be disregarded to some extent, and that subsection must be interpreted as providing an exemption from the state corporation commission's regulation to those persons who operate the multi-passenger motor vehicles specified therein. Furthermore, that subsection's exclusion of certain "individuals" from such exemption applies only to natural persons and does not apply to corporations, partnerships, associations or other artificial persons. Cited herein: K.S.A. 66-1,108, 66-1,109, 66-1,111, 66-1,146.
