This bill aims to restore local government control over wages, compensation, and benefits for construction projects in Kansas. It amends K.S.A. 12-16,132 and K.S.A. 19-26,114 by declaring that any city ordinance or county resolution that conflicts with K.S.A. 12-16,130 is void and against the public policy of the state. The bill removes the references to K.S.A. 12-16,131 in both sections, thereby simplifying the legal framework governing local employment regulations.

Additionally, the bill repeals the existing sections K.S.A. 12-16,132 and 19-26,114, which further emphasizes the shift in authority back to local governments regarding employment matters related to construction projects. The act will take effect upon its publication in the statute book, signaling a significant change in how local governments can manage employment policies in the construction sector.
