This is just Lucas planning for his political future. He's young enough he bolts for Washington or NYC and is just posturing favors for job paybacks down the road. Bunch is probably trying the same thing but I'm not sure he catches anything. Maybe, a transportation middle manager for Buttigeig. Who...

Where are you seeing that? Jackson and KC websites show me 100% exempt but don’t say if it’s because of an incentive or because of property owner. I also see a CID in place.

Not in this city! Developer said the same. Major plan amendment filed this week

That’s a different org than their political committe afaik

Did 51 Oak Whoke Food Apartment's get a tax incentive? Or no taxes as it’s UMKC owned land?

STL Cardinals will ask the local and/state government for over $500 million to renovate Busch Stadium.

Correct me if I am wrong, but it seems like the quality and service of the KCATA bus system has fallen quite a bit since they made it free. I predicted it would happen. Nothing good comes from making a transit system free to use which is why there are pretty much no large high quality, high use tra...

Where are you seeing this?

from the city manager radio interview

But those issues were not found for decades post construction. And Kansas City’s special testing and inspections requirements during the construction process are what really catch those sorts of issues well before there is a major problem.

Break ground by end of year starting with western blocks. 1/2 funded for the entire project, all blocks, secured. This has been slowed by MODOT and Feds.

When was that said?

This week

The city manager was asked if there will be another stadium vote this year. He said there just may not be a vote again. IMHO came off to me as: “this moving forward isn’t a done deal. We are trying but it may not advance. We will try” 100% not a done deal. Yea so his comment isn’t that this doesn’t...

Southwest starting Columbus is another spoke that will help fill connecting traffic. Might take this route for a weekend trip. The announcement that Cabo is going 4x weekly is no surprise given how well that route is doing

Stadium district plans to break ground after this NWSL season ends and open major components prior to World Cup 2026

Where does said bartender work?

That has been an ongoing rumor for such a long time. A bit hard to buy at this point.

KC misses out again. Arizona Coyotes going to Utah. Utah had an organized onwership group. Can't miss a shot you dont even take Article I saw said still negotiating with the NHL and they aren’t happy with the current Delta Center in SLC in its current setup. They do have support from their governor...
