Each applicant that desires to use STAR bonds to finance a special bond project in Kansas shall apply to the secretary for a determination that the project qualifies as a major commercial entertainment or tourism area. If the project is to be located in a redevelopment district that is wholly within a county but not within the geographic limits of an incorporated Kansas city, then after the governing body of the county approves the creation of the district, a city within the county shall agree by interlocal agreement to be the county's sponsoring applicant.

(a) Each applicant shall provide the secretary with a special bond project plan prepared pursuant to K.S.A. 12-1780c, and amendments thereto. Each applicant shall also provide the following:

(1) Documentation that the city has met all resolution, hearing, and ordinance requirements;

(2) a statement on how the proposed project meets the eligibility limitations on bond authority set forth in K.S.A. 12-1770a(g), and amendments thereto;

(3) a project budget; and

(4) any other relevant information required by the secretary.

(b) The summary of the feasibility study included as part of the special bond project plan shall be prepared by an independent party with recognized expertise in preparing this type of study and shall include the following:

(1) The information required by K.S.A. 12-1770a(k), and amendments thereto;

(2) a description of any project submitted under K.S.A. 12-1771d, and amendments thereto, to satisfy the requirements of K.S.A. 12-1770a(l), and amendments thereto;

(3) a statement of how the jobs and taxes obtained from the project will contribute significantly to the economic development of the state and region;

(4) a statement concerning whether a portion of the sales taxes collected pursuant to K.S.A. 12-187, and amendments thereto, is committed to other uses and unavailable as revenue for the redevelopment project. If a portion of sales taxes is so committed, the applicant shall describe the following:
(A) The percentage of sales taxes collected that is so committed; and

(B) the date or dates on which this diverted revenue can be pledged for repayment of special obligation bonds;

(5) an anticipated principal and interest payment schedule on the bonds; and

(6) a copy of the minutes of the governing body meeting or meetings of any city whose bonding authority will be utilized in the project, evidencing that a redevelopment plan has been created, discussed, and adopted by the city in a regularly scheduled open public meeting.

(c) If any of the items specified in this regulation are not included, the applicant shall be notified about the items or information required to be provided to the secretary before the secretary will respond.
