Book Description
A county, as a subdivision of state government is subject to limitations imposed by an enabling act. K.S.A. 1990 Supp. 65-6113 limits how a county may reimburse a taxing district that provides ambulance service. Given that home rule cannot be used because the act is uniformly applicable, the reimbursement formula cannot be altered, short of legislative amendment. Cited herein: K.S.A. 1990 Supp. 19-101a; 65-6113.

Book Description
Generally, marital relationships between governmental officers or employees are not p̲e̲r̲ s̲e̲ prohibited by Kansas law. Kansas conflict of interest laws prohibit certain interaction with or activities involving entities in which a public officer or employee has a substantial interest. These conflict of interest laws do not preclude an individual from serving as a public officer or employee. Because the appointment in question is for a court personnel position, statutes concerning that position and the judicial rules and canons should also be considered in making such an appointment. Cited herein: K.S.A. 13-2903; 14-537; 20-342; 20-343; 46-215; 46-221; 46-231; 46-233; 46-239; K.S.A. 1990 Supp. 46-247; K.S.A. 74-605; K.S.A. 1990 Supp. 75-4301a; 75-4304.

Book Description
Records pertaining to an internal investigation of an agency's employee, disclosure of which would not interfere with a prospective administrative adjudication or civil litigation nor disclose the identity of a confidential informant, may nevertheless be discretionarily closed if they fit the definition of a personnel record set forth in K.S.A. 1990 Supp. 45-221, as amended. Unless specifically altered by law, the decision concerning how to exercise existing discretionary closure authority may be made by the official custodian or custodian of the record, as those terms are defined by K.S.A. 45-217(c) and (d). Cited herein: K.S.A. 45-215; 45-217; K.S.A. 1990 Supp. 45-221, as amended by L. 1991, ch. 149, section 11; K.S.A. 73-1207; K.S.A. 1990 Supp. 73-1208c; K.S.A. 73-1209.

Book Description
K.S.A. 1990 Supp. 46-1101 gives the legislative post auditor access to otherwise confidential or private records; K.S.A. 1990 Supp. 46-1106 requires the post auditor to comply with any "duty of confidentiality imposed by law." The Kansas open records act (KORA), K.S.A. 45-215 e̲t̲ s̲e̲q̲., requires public records to be disclosed upon request unless a law permits or requires closure of a specific public record. The record in question is a contract which was in part made by a public agency. It therefore meets the definition of a public record, and is subject to the KORA. The only provision we have located that permits or requires closure of the questioned portions of the public record is in the contract itself. Public records may not be closed by contract unless a law permits or requires closure of the specific record. As no such law has been located, with regard to the specific portions of the record in question, it is our opinion that a contractual term attempting to close this information is void as against stated public policy. Such a term must therefore be severed from the otherwise legal portions of the agreement, and disclosure of the questioned portions of the record may occur. Disclosure of other records or matters must be examined on a case by case basis to determine if there is a legal duty to disclose such records or matters. Absent a mandatory disclosure requirement, an agreement not to disclose creates a duty which post audit must respect, pursuant to K.S.A. 1990 Supp. 46-1106 (g). Cited herein: K.S.A. 45-215; 45-216; 45-217; K.S.A. 1990 Supp. 45-221, as amended by L. 1991, ch. 149, section 12; K.S.A. 46-1101; K.S.A. 1990 Supp. 46-1106; 46-1108; 46-1114.
