Requiring at least one member of the Kansas state fair board to be a resident of Reno county.
HB 2779 requires that at least one member of the Kansas State Fair Board be a resident of Reno County. This amendment to the board's membership rules (K.S.A. 2025 Supp. 74-520a) specifies that among the two "state at large" public appointees, one must reside in Reno County. The bill directly affects the governor's appointment process for the board, ensuring Reno County representation. It does not change the board's duties, funding, or the fair's operations.
