Kansas State Treasurer Jake Laturner and members of his office were in Baldwin City to let citizens of Baldwin City know about the unclaimed property division his office administers. According to Laturner, his office has over $350 million in unclaimed property. Laturner said that most of the property is in cash. Cash that may have been left in forgotten bank accounts, stock, bonds, insurance premium overpayments, refunds, abandoned safe deposit boxes and other property. The office will hold onto the property for a while, in their safes version of safety deposit boxes. However, they only have so much space and eventually, it may be sold and the cash will then be help until such time they find the proper owner or heir.
The Treasurer's office released their top ten list for Baldwin City.
The Treasurer's office also administers the states "529" college savings program and the Kansas Able Savings, which allows those with disabilities to have assets and set aside up to $14,000 a year in special accounts without affecting their eligibility for Supplemental Security Income, Medicaid or other government programs.
