Kansas taxpayers will be reimbursing Shawnee County taxpayers for a “bureaucratic snafu” that meant three months worth of a dedicated sales tax went uncollected. The $2 million will go to the Gage Park Improvement District after the Kansas Department of Revenue failed to implement on time a voter-approved sales tax increase. “Once it comes in, the authority wants to talk about how to allocate it and to make sure we make a difference with it, because the community, I think, passing the sales tax wants to see something fairly soon that’s making a positive change in Gage Park,” said Rep. Fred Patton, R-Topeka.
