The city of Wellington may charter out of K.S.A. 14-604 and 14-605 because those provisions are not uniformly applicable to all cities. Furthermore, assuming a charter ordinance is enacted which provides for the appointment of members of the board of trustees by the mayor or council, the present members who were elected by the citizens have no property right in the office they hold and, consequently, the due process provisions of the fourteenth amendment to the United States constitution and the Kansas bill of rights do not apply. Cited herein: K.S.A. 14-604; 14-605; 14-633; 14-641; 14-644; 14-655; 14-662; 14-669; 14-678; 14-685; Kan. Const., Bill of Rights, sec. 1; art. 12, sec. 5; U.S. Const., amend. XIV.

Book Description
Pursuant to the provisions of K.S.A. 8-2001, local authorities (including cities) may adopt additional traffic regulations prohibiting "U-turns" where such regulations do not conflict with the provisions of the Uniform Act Regulating Traffic on Highways. Under the Uniform Act, no such ordinance regulating or prohibiting the turning of vehicles shall be effective until official traffic control devices giving notice of such local traffic regulation are erected upon or at the entrances to the highway or part thereof affected. K.S.A. 8-2002(a)(9) and (c). Accordingly, an ordinance which prescribes additional circumstances under which U-turns are prohibited (i̲.̲e̲.̲ the ordinance sets forth limitations in addition to those prescribed by K.S.A. 8-1546) is not effective until official traffic control devices giving notice of such prohibition are erected. Thus, subsections (1), (3) and (4) of section 35-323 of the Kansas City Municipal Code, which impose additional prohibitions on U-turns in the absence of official traffic control devices giving notice of such prohibitions, conflicts with subsection (c) of K.S.A. 8-2002, and is invalid pursuant to K.S.A. 8-2001. Cited herein: 8-1546; 8-2001; 8-2002.

Book Description
Property specifically dedicated for public use is for the enjoyment of the public at large, not for one person or a limited number of persons, or for the exclusive use of restricted groups of individuals. Such public use does not include housing the offices of private organizations that provide services to only some members of the general public. However, there may be instances where a private non-profit organization desires to use a public building located on a public square in such a manner that its use is for the general public rather than for the organization's members or some other restricted group of individuals, and such use would be permissible. Cited herein: K.S.A. 12-401; 12-406; 12-406a.
