Book excerpt: No state statute proscribes a mandatory retirement age for current employees of unified school districts or community colleges. Thus, it is improper for a board of education or board of trustees to rely upon the mandatory retirement age provisions of K.S.A. 72-5512 or 74-4937 (Weeks, 1980, now repealed,) as the basis for not renewing the employment contract of a faculty member. Additionally, during the term of a negotiated agreement reached under the Teachers' Professional Negotiations Law, a board of education or board of trustees, acting unilaterally, may not make changes in any item which is mandatorily-negotiable, such as the matter of retirement. Moreover, this is true even though the item was not noticed for negotiation and was neither discussed during negotiations nor included in the resulting agreement.

Book excerpt: K.S.A. 19-702 provides that it is the duty of the county attorney to prosecute all cases arising out of the criminal statutes of this state which arise in his or her county. If such a violation occurs, it is immaterial whether it takes place within or without the limits of any city located in the county, or whether the officer issuing the citation or making the arrest is an employee of the city or county. In any violation of a state criminal statute, it is the function of the county attorney to prosecute, and such prosecution may not be declined, or additional conditions attached (i̲.̲e̲.̲ payment of costs) on the grounds that the violation took place within the city.

Book excerpt: The provisions of subsections (c) and (d) of K.S.A. 1983 Supp. 77-426, which allow the legislature to reject, modify or revoke an administrative rule and regulation by means of the adoption of a concurrent resolution, are unconstitutional. Such action by the legislature is an unlawful usurpation of the governor's constitutional power to administer and enforce the laws. Such action violates the constitutional doctrine of separation of powers. In addition, the legislative oversight mechanism prescribed in subsections (c) and (d) of K.S.A. 1983 Supp. 77-426 is unconstitutional for the reason that it attempts to authorize the legislature to make law, without following the mandatory procedures of the Kansas Constitution. The Kansas constitution requires that any law be enacted only by bill [not by resolution or concurrent resolution]; that every bill contain the constitutionally-specified enacting clause; and that all bills passed by the legislature be presented to the governor for approval or disapproval. The procedure set forth in subsections (c) and (d) of K.S.A. 1983 Supp. 77-426 does not meet these constitutional requirements and is unconstitutional. Cited herein: K.S.A. 1983 Supp. 77-426; Kan. Const., Art. 2, sections 14, 20.

Book excerpt: The legislature may refuse to appropriate moneys to provide funds for a̲ ̲p̲a̲r̲t̲i̲c̲u̲l̲a̲r̲ lease of office space already entered into by a state agency and may direct that no appropriated moneys shall be used for such purpose. However, the legislature may not prescribe that an agency may not enter into a̲n̲y̲ lease for office space without the prior approval of the State Finance Council or some other legislatively-dominated committee. Such a limitation on prospective action by a state agency violates the doctrine of separation of powers and is unconstitutional. Attorney General Opinion No. 81-83 is reaffirmed.

Book excerpt: In making recommendations as to the zoning of an individual parcel of land, a planning commission acts in a quasi-judicial, rather than a legislative, function. As such, its deliberations may be held in closed session, as a specific exception to the Kansas Open Meetings Law, K.S.A. 75-4317 e̲t̲ s̲e̲q̲. For purposes of the Open Meetings Law, "binding action" would occur when the commission votes to approve or deny a particular request, and would have to be done in an open meeting. Further, In that K.S.A. 12-708 requires the commission to adopt its recommendations by affirmative vote at the conclusion of the hearing, it is not possible to have a binding vote before such recommendations, in the form of specific findings, are prepared.
