The Honorable Adam Smith, Chairperson
House Committee on Taxation
300 SW 10th Avenue, Room 346-S
Topeka, Kansas 66612
Dear Representative Smith:
SUBJECT: Fiscal Note for HB 2683 by House Committee on Taxation
In accordance with KSA 75-3715a, the following fiscal note concerning HB 2683 is
respectfully submitted to your committee.
HB 2683 would modify the deadlines for various property tax statements and certifications.
Under current law, county clerks are required to submit a statement of the county’s property tax
rate and collections (other than motor vehicle taxes) to the Director of Property Valuation by
November 15 of each year. The bill would move this deadline to November 1 of each year. Under
current law, county treasurers are required to mail property tax statements and tax information
forms to each taxpayer by December 15 of each year. The bill would move this deadline to
December 1 of each year. The bill would also establish that if a taxing subdivision fails to submit
its budget to the county clerk by 5:00 PM on October 1, the clerk would be required use the
previous year’s budget information to determine the subdivision’s property tax levy.
The Department of Revenue indicates that enactment of the bill would have a negligible
fiscal effect on its operations. The Division of Property Valuation would be required to prepare
for and accommodate the earlier reporting window, which could be achieved with existing
resources. The Kansas Association of Counties indicates that the bill would have an unknown
fiscal effect on counties. The League of Kansas Municipalities indicates that the bill would have
no fiscal effect on cities.

Sincerely,

Adam C. Proffitt
Director of the Budget
