(a)The state of Kansas shall be liable for a lawful and reasonable share of any special assessments levied by any board against any property owned by the state of Kansas or on property in which the state has a property interest for the purpose of streets, alleys, sanitary sewers, storm sewers, drainage district works and flood control works, or works supplemental to or necessary to the operation of any of the foregoing.
(b)Except for special assessments levied by a board for the purposes listed in subsection (a), the state of Kansas shall not be liable for any special assessments levied for a purpose which, in the opinion of the secretary, renders no immediate direct benefit, or immediate significant indirect benefit to the state of Kansas. The secretary, upon advice of the attorney general and the heads of all interested departments, shall determine within 30 days after receipt of notice under K.S.A. 12-3504 , and amendments thereto, whether the state of Kansas receives any immediate direct benefit or immediate significant indirect benefit from the proposed improvement. Upon making such finding, the secretary shall notify the interested board and interested state department heads in writing of the finding.
