SB 12 would require each member of a board of county commissioners or local governing body of a city whose district territory includes land being acquired to approve the exercise of eminent domain for the acquisition when the land is to be used for a recreational project. Both the League of Kansas Municipalities and the Kansas Association of Counties state the enactment of SB 12 would not have a fiscal effect on local governments. Sincerely, Adam C.
