Book excerpt: Pursuant to K.S.A. 19-2918c, a county planning board has no authority to review subdivision plats before they are filed with the register of deeds unless the planning board has enacted subdivision regulations pursuant to K.S.A. 19-2918. Under these statutes, a board of county commissioners has the authority to approve subdivision regulations, but has no authority to approve or review a final plat which has been approved by the county planning board. Regardless of the existence of subdivision regulations, however, K.S.A. 19-2633 requires that subdivision plats of land located more than one mile from the limits of an incorporated city be approved by the board of county commissioners before such plats may be filed with the register of deeds. The provisions of this statute are applicable in Cowley County, which has a county planning board (appointed pursuant to K.S.A. 1983 Supp. 19-2915) that has not adopted subdivision regulations. The filing and recording of a plat vests title to property designated for public use in the county, and such property is to be held in trust for the purposes of the dedication. A decision as to when a road or public way dedicated to public use is opened or put in condition for public use is within the discretion of the governing body charged with the responsibility of maintenance. Subdivided land which has been platted pursuant to K.S.A. 19-2633 is subject to the restrictions stated in the plats.

Book excerpt: For purposes of civil proceedings under the Code for Care of Children, the legislature defined types of behavior which would constitute sexual abuse by reference to sex offenses in the criminal code, however, it did not thereby intend to adopt a criminal definition of sexual abuse. Thus, while certain acts described as sex offenses in the criminal statutes may not be punishable crimes if committed with a child age 16 years or older; those same acts may constitute abuse of that child under the definition of that term in the Code for Care of Children.

Book excerpt: Section 4(d) of 1983 House Bill No. 2327 (L. 1983, ch. 171), the new Kansas Open Records Act, provides that each request for access shall be acted upon as soon as possible, but not later than three business days following receipt of the request. Only if the request cannot be met within this time must the custodian of the records provide an explanation of the cause for further delay. In addition, the phrases "provide access to" and "permit inspection of" are used interchangeably throughout the bill, and may accordingly be treated as synonymous for purposes of interpretation. Both phrases concern the right of the public to examine public records, and so are different than the right to make copies. Cited herein: L. 1983, Ch. 171.
