Book Description
Pursuant to the provisions of K.S.A. 41-208, the legislature has the exclusive power to regulate the transportation of alcoholic liquor, and cities are preempted from legislating in this area, except to the extent authorized by the legislature. However, K.S.A. 41-208 permits the adoption of city ordinances which declare as unlawful or prohibited any act which is unlawful or prohibited under the Kansas Liquor Control Act, and such ordinances may prescribe penalties for violations consistent with the penalites prescribed under the Liquor Control Act. Accordingly, a city may adopt an "open container" ordinance prohibiting those acts proscribed by K.S.A. 41-804 and prescribing penalties for violations thereof, including authorization for the municipal court to suspend or restrict the driver's license or operating privileges of a person convicted under such ordinance, to the extent provided in K.S.A. 41-804. Cited herein: K.S.A. 1980 Supp. 8-1567, K.S.A. 41-101, 41-208, 41-804, Kan. Const., Art. 12, section 5.

Book Description
Pursuant to K.S.A. 19-2731 e̲t̲ s̲e̲q̲., a board of county commissioners is empowered to raise money for the construction of both main and lateral sewers through the issuance of general obligation bonds. Said bonds shall be paid for through the making of special assessments on the land in the district, and, at the option of the board of county commissioners, on the improvements thereto (K.S.A. 19-27,153). These assessments are to be collected in the same manner as other property taxes. Accordingly, the failure by a property owner to pay such an assessment subjects the property to sale by the county. In the event of a dispute over the amount or validity of such an assessment, a property owner must follow procedures established by statute for challenging the assessment, and cannot as an alternative withhold the disputed portion from the total taxes and assessments due on the property. Cited herein: K.S.A. 19-2735, 19-2737, 60-907, K.S.A. 1981 Supp. 60-2301, 79-2004, 79-2005, K.S.A. 79-2302.
