A tax exemption for certain ATVs could be going away in the state of Kansas. ATVs with more than one seat could be considered passenger vehicles and would no longer qualify for the farm tax exemption. Property tax on ATVs in the state of Kansas is 30%, which is a substantial increase from not having to pay property taxes due to the exemption.

Labette County Appraiser DeLinda White says at the moment they don't have any official guidelines on this change or have a timetable for when it will or could be put in place. The Labette County Commissioners also had concerns about how to enforce proper permits to see if property tax was being paid on these vehicles.
