 Kansas Department of Revenue - Sales of Liquor on Sunday in Wyandotte County   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
In August of 2002, the Unified Government of Wyandotte County and Kansas City, Kansas, and the City of Edwardsville passed charter ordinances under their home rule authority to exempt their cities from the State prohibition against Sunday liquor sales.
Given the implications of the recent Wyandotte County District Court ruling, the Division of Alcoholic Beverage Control and Department of Revenue were hopeful that the legislature would amend the Liquor Control Act to eliminate the court’s basis for finding it nonuniform.
However, since the act was not amended during this year's session, cities may attempt to exercise their home rule authority to opt out of the prohibition on Sunday sales, sales on holidays and potentially other provisions of the act pending the final outcome of an appeal or future legislative action.
