Item:
Resolution Number 93-4610, opposing the adoption of unfunded mandates by the
United States Congress and Kansas Legislature.
Background:
Cities and Counties across the nation are facing overwhelming compliance costs
in federal and state mandates affecting a variety of areas. The Board of
Commissioners has expressed their position regarding these unfunded mandates
placed on local jurisdictions. In keeping with this policy position, and as
suggested by the Kansas League of Municipalities, staff recommends adoption of
this resolution expressing opposition to the adoption of unfunded mandates by
the federal and state governments, with copies being sent to the appropriate
federal and state elected officials.
Recommended Action:
Adopt Resolution Number 93-4610 and authorize staff to send copies to the
appropriate federal and state elected officials.
