Document:
(5) state that the governing body will consider findings necessary for the establishment of a redevelopment district or bioscience development district.
Notice shall be given as provided in subsection (c) of K.S.A. 12-1772, and amendments thereto.
(b) Posthearing procedure. Upon the conclusion of the public hearing, the governing body may pass an ordinance. (1) An ordinance for a redevelopment district shall: (A) Make findings that the redevelopment district proposed to be developed is an eligible area; and the conservation, development or redevelopment of such area is necessary to promote the general and economic welfare of the city; (B) contain the district plan as approved; and (C) contain the legal description of the redevelopment district and may establish the redevelopment district. Such ordinance shall contain a district plan that identifies all of the proposed redevelopment project areas and identifies in a general manner all of the buildings and facilities that are proposed to be constructed or improved in each redevelopment project area. The boundaries of such district shall not include any area not designated in the notice required by subsection (a).
(2) An ordinance for a bioscience development district shall make findings that the area satisfies the definition of a bioscience area and the creation of a bioscience district will contribute to the development of bioscience in the state and promote the general and economic welfare of the city. Such ordinance shall also contain the district plan as approved and contain the legal description of the bioscience development district. Such ordinance shall contain a development district plan that identifies all of the proposed bioscience development project areas and identifies in a general manner all of the buildings and facilities that are proposed to be constructed or improved in each bioscience development project area. The boundaries of such district shall not include any area not designated in the notice required by subsection (a). No bioscience development district shall be established without the approval of the Kansas bioscience authority. In creating a bioscience development district, eminent domain shall not be used to acquire agricultural land.
(c) The governing body of a city may establish a redevelopment district within that city, and, with the Kansas bioscience authority's approval, may establish a bioscience development district within that city. Such city may establish a district inclusive of land outside the boundaries of the city or wholly outside the boundaries of such city upon written consent of the board of county commissioners. Prior to providing written consent, the board of county commissioners shall be subject to the same procedure for public notice and hearing as is required of a city pursuant to subsection (a) for the establishment of a redevelopment district or bioscience development district. One or more redevelopment projects or bioscience development projects may be undertaken by a city within a redevelopment district or bioscience development district after such redevelopment district or bioscience development district has been established in the manner provided by this section.
(d) No privately owned property subject to ad valorem taxes shall be acquired and redeveloped under the provisions of K.S.A. 12-1770 et seq., and amendments thereto, if the board of county commissioners or the board of education levying taxes on such property determines by resolution adopted within 30 days following the conclusion of the hearing for the establishment of the redevelopment district or bioscience development district required by subsection (b) that the proposed redevelopment district or bioscience development district will have an adverse effect on such county or school district. The board of county commissioners or board of education shall deliver a copy of such resolution to the city. The city shall within 30 days of receipt of such resolution pass an ordinance terminating the redevelopment district or bioscience development district.
(e) Addition to area; substantial change. Any addition of area to the redevelopment district or bioscience development district or any substantial change as defined in K.S.A. 12-1770a, and amendments thereto, to the district plan shall be subject to the same procedure for public notice and hearing as is required for the establishment of the district.
(f) Any addition of any area to the redevelopment district or bioscience development district shall be subject to the same procedure for public notice and hearing as is required for the establishment of the redevelopment district or bioscience development district. The base year assessed valuation of the redevelopment district or bioscience development district following the addition of area shall be revised to reflect the base year assessed valuation of the original area and the added area as of the date of the original establishment of the redevelopment district or bioscience development district.
(g) A city may remove real property from a redevelopment district or bioscience development district by an ordinance of the governing body. If more than a de minimus amount of real property is removed from a redevelopment district or bioscience development district, the base year assessed valuation of the redevelopment district or bioscience development district shall be revised to reflect the base year assessed valuation of the remaining real property as of the date of the original establishment of the redevelopment district or bioscience development district.
(h) A city may divide the real property in a redevelopment district or bioscience development district, including real property in different redevelopment district or bioscience development project areas within a redevelopment district or bioscience development district, into separate redevelopment districts or bioscience development districts. The base year assessed valuation of each resulting redevelopment district or bioscience development district following such division of real property shall be revised to reflect the base year assessed valuation of the area of each resulting redevelopment district or bioscience development district as of the date of the original establishment of the redevelopment district or bioscience development district. Any division of real property within a redevelopment district or bioscience development district into more than one redevelopment district or bioscience development district shall be subject to the same procedure of public notice and hearing as is required for the establishment of the redevelopment district or bioscience development district.
(i) If a city has undertaken a redevelopment project or bioscience development project within a redevelopment district or bioscience development district, and either the city wishes to subsequently remove more than a de minimus amount of real property from the redevelopment district or bioscience development district or the city wishes to subsequently divide the real property in the redevelopment district or bioscience development district into more than one redevelopment district or bioscience development district, then prior to any such removal or division the city must provide a feasibility study which shows that the tax increment revenue from the resulting redevelopment district or bioscience development district within which the redevelopment project or bioscience development project is located is expected to be sufficient to pay the redevelopment project costs or bioscience development project costs.
(j) Removal of real property from one redevelopment district or bioscience development district and addition of all or a portion of that real property to another redevelopment district or bioscience development district may be accomplished by the adoption of an ordinance and in such event the determination of the existence or nonexistence of an adverse effect on the county or school district under subsection (d) shall apply to both such removal and such addition of real property to a redevelopment district or bioscience development district.
(k) Any addition to, removal from or division of real property or a substantial change as defined in K.S.A. 12-1770a, and amendments thereto, to a bioscience development district may be made only with the approval of the Kansas bioscience authority.
(2) the board of county commissioners follows the notice, hearing and approval procedures required of a city to establish a bioscience development district.
(m) When establishing a bioscience development district as described in subsection (1), any references to "city" contained in this section shall mean "county" and any references to "ordinance" shall mean "resolution."
