KanView allows access to state revenues and expenditures instantly
4:53 p.m. Monday, February 25, 2008
Kansas Secretary of Administration Duane Goossen unveiled a new online database that provides instant access to State of Kansas revenues and expenditures today. The database is called KanView.
“Transparency in government is something I have long supported,” said Governor Kathleen Sebelius. “I hope Kansans find this to be a helpful tool in seeking information.”
KanView is intended to fulfill a promise made in the 2008 appropriations bill signed into law last year. A House bill passed earlier this month contains a similar stipulation.
Information for the site is taken from the statewide accounting and reporting system, or STARS. As required by the legislation, KanView will eventually contain additional information and be made more accessible as an upgrade to a statewide financial management system continues.
KanView is a partnership between the Department of Administration and the Information Network of Kansas, the state’s Web portal and provider of eGovernment solutions.
KanView will be accessible to everyone beginning Friday, February 29th at http://www.accesskansas.org/kanview/.
