Lawyers for a Kansas school district and park district want the developers of a controversial "Wizard of Oz" theme park to be legally responsible for a federal-state land transfer.

In exchange for receiving the former 9,065-acre Sunflower Army Ammunition Plant from the federal government, the Oz developers are supposed to give 2,800 to a local school district and a local park district. But lawyers for the two say the developers shouldn't be allowed to claim the exchange as a tax write off and want the agreement made court-enforceable.
