County clerk explains township levy changes affecting 167 Edgerton properties
Summary
Johnson County Clerk Amy Meeker-Berg told Edgerton council that under KSA 15-104 township levies will appear on 167 Gardner Township properties in Edgerton this year and the County will mail explanatory notices to affected property owners.
Amy Meeker-Berg, Johnson County Clerk, briefed the council on how township general fund levies apply to properties located inside Edgerton under Kansas statute KSA 15-104. She said the change will cause 167 properties in the Gardner Township portion of Edgerton to see township levies on their tax bills for the first time and that the County will include an explanatory mailer to reduce confusion.
Meeker-Berg told council members that mill levy amounts vary year to year and gave illustrative average increases: about $6.29 for properties in McCamish Township and roughly $14.60 for the Gardner Township side, depending on what the township levies. City Attorney Todd Luckman asked her to repeat the statute and she identified the relevant provision as KSA 15-104 regarding third-class cities.
