Used vehicle taxes would follow a 12-month waiting rule

Used vehicle owners would pay property taxes to the county treasurer when applying to register their vehicles in the year the tax is charged. The waiting period would apply to used motor vehicles covered by Kansas motor vehicle property taxes. The separate rule for other vehicles would tie taxes to the month immediately following purchase or acquisition. Taxes would begin on the first day of the month following the stated 12th month. The wording does not clearly say whether the purchase month counts as month one. If enacted, the bill would take effect upon publication in the statute book.
