Enacting the Kansas land and military installation protection act to prohibit foreign principals from countries of concern from acquiring any interest in certain real property in this state.
HB 2290 prohibits foreign entities from "countries of concern" (including foreign adversaries and designated terrorist organizations) from acquiring any interest in real property near military installations in Kansas. It defines "countries of concern" based on federal designations, exempts small stock holdings (under 10% ownership) and residential properties, and blocks such entities from receiving economic development benefits like tax credits or grants. The bill applies to all property interests, including ownership, leases, and mineral rights, specifically targeting land critical to U.S. military or Kansas National Guard security. It amends Kansas law to implement this protection without affecting residential real estate.
