Book excerpt: K.S.A. 12-3005 prescribes that "[t]he style or ordaining clause of all ordinances shall be: 'Be it ordained by the governing body of the city of ___________:'". This requirement is mandatory, and a proposed ordinance submitted under the provisions of K.S.A. 12-3013 must include an ordaining clause. As Ordinance No. 112-A of the city of Olathe contains no such clause, it is our opinion that the "ordinance" is void and unenforceable. Cited herein: K.S.A. 12-3005; 12-3013; Kan.

Book excerpt: Gross operating revenue," as that term is used in 1989 House Bill No. 2502, includes revenue received from transactions other than title insurance. For purposes of determining whether 20% of gross operating revenue received in the previous six months is derived from controlled business, revenue received from transactions involving land sales in counties populated by 10,000 or less is not included. Since the prohibitions contained in the act do not substantially impair obligations under existing title insurance contracts, the act does not violate the contracts clause of the United States Constitution. The distinction between counties having a population of 10,000 or less and those having a population of more than 10,000 does not create an impermissible classification. Finally, the rule-making authority granted by the act does not conflict with the statute granting rulemaking authority in areas not affected by the act.
