Cities and counties could allow different zoning rules within districts

Kansas cities and counties would be allowed to apply different zoning rules within the same district. The permission would cover rules for the same kind of building or land use within a city or county zoning district. Local zoning regulations could still require uniform rules within a district. If enacted, the bill would take effect after publication in the statute book. Local zoning rules would take effect when the city ordinance or county resolution adopting them is published.

Cities and counties would publish notice of hearings on proposed zoning rules in their official newspaper and on an available city, county, or joint website. These notices would cover planning commission hearings on proposed zoning rules and state the hearing's time, place, and general subject. Website notice would be required if the city or county has a website or joint website. Joint zoning boards would use both official newspapers and available city, county, or joint websites.
