(a) There is hereby created in the state treasury the local law enforcement training reimbursement fund. All expenditures from the local law enforcement training fund shall: (1) Be distributed to municipalities which participated in local law enforcement training programs, certified by the commission, which existed prior to January 1, 1992, in accordance with a distribution formula developed by the commission; (2) not exceed more than 100% of the actual training costs incurred by the municipality in participating in the local law enforcement training program; and (3) be distributed for basic law enforcement training and not be for any type of continuing law enforcement training education programs. Such distribution formula shall provide that distribution be based on the number of individuals trained and the cost per individual trained of each such municipality. Any such distributions shall be reviewed on a year-to-year basis and adjusted accordingly pursuant to the criteria specified in this section. The commission shall conduct a review of all local law enforcement training programs in which municipalities receiving expenditures pursuant to this act are participating and shall require that all such law enforcement training programs report their costs in a standardized format prescribed by the commission. Expenditures from the local law enforcement training reimbursement fund shall be made in accordance with appropriation acts upon warrants of the director of accounts and reports issued pursuant to vouchers approved by the commission or by a person or persons designated by the commission.
(b) This section shall be part of and supplemental to the Kansas law enforcement training act.
