On May 10, 2022, a majority of the voters of the City voting at the special question election approved the levy of a one-half percent (0.5%) special purpose Citywide retailer’s sales tax (the “Educational Sales Tax”) to assist in retiring the general obligation bonds of Unified School District 489 issued to finance the cost of District projects. All retailers within the City limits of Hays, KS are reminded to adjust their point of sale systems to reflect the correct total retailer’s sales tax beginning October 1, 2022. More information for retailers can be found at http://www.ksrevenue.org/salesratechanges.html or the Kansas Department of Revenue Customer Service Center Website.
