but the basic premise is the same--cities that don't provide incentives for retention will lose companies to other cities that provide incentives for recruiment. same deal w/ the MO v KS issue and incentives.

VIVA LA PIZZA STREET!!

Grey Fox needs to get off his high horse--EDC of KCMO would do the same thing to any jurisdiction in KS cause that's the name of the game (not sure they would do it to a MO neighbor like Olathe is doing to Lenexa, though). Good comment Fang, that's why I am headed to NYC to shop--more culture, bette...

agreed, i was just playing along! olathe is too busy giving incentives to businesses located in OP and Lenexa to worry about redeveloping its downtown.

just the point--this whole area is based on sprawl and it will never stop, at least in our lifetime. and Que, you should get real excited about downtown development given your jazzed about "long-term" initiatives.

SOJOCO Fine Dining Update: You can wear your favorite sweats (dirty or clean) and/or NASCAR ball cap for lunch to Guacamole Grill in Olathe for their spectacular mexican food buffet. I felt like a major geek w/ my suit and tie, but the mullet is growing in nicely so I was welcomed into the pack. $3....

everyone knows that the best way to get rid of a deceased prostitute is with chicken wire and concrete, NOT a trunk. or just chop her up and stuff in a storm drain.

W&R was never going to come downtown; the sharks got caught up in their own feeding frenzy that they never really had their eye on the ball. state of kansas just sat back and LAUGHED at KCMO in their futile efforts to recruit W&R at any cost. unfortunately any significant company deciding to...

women of walmart??? now that is one i will have to take a pass on; i would assume its pretty close to the queens of krispy creme calendar. walmart = white trash.

from target, out

fake jewelry and real orgasms???? does she turn into a pizza and six-pack at midnight?? if so, i'm buying!!!

that crib is DEAD!! gribbles rocks and T-jay is ok, other than that, it is a ghost town on the interior. and i am back going to movies @ cinemark on the plaza; they dont allow any kids under 14 in w/out an adult after 5pm which keeps all the rug rats at WPkwy 14 or further South. try seeing a movie ...

time to take our rage to the streets and all i got to say is: I've got word of thanks, thanks that I'd like to say, for the rage that I feel, the rage that I feel today. Gotta stack, gotta stack, stack of chips on my shoulder, in everything I do 'cause I made, I made, I made the mistake of trusting ...

what is your source on all of this "activity"? last time (last week) i drove through there all i saw was empty storefronts and some really nice new vacant buildings. i could care less about what is "planned" cause in this city i will believe it when i see it. by the way, where is...

KCDevin sounds like he is the right age for a long overnight stay at Neverland Ranch. Just dont touch his monkey (bubbles?); but then again, you might want to touch it then sue him and settle for $10+ million. I would touch his monkey for $5k (got to keep gas in the Beamer)

brookside yuppie--out

agree w/ G2G, unless we all bend over and take it in the rear like the City of KCMO is willing to do (and OP), H&R could really give a sh!t about a petition signed by a bunch of geeks w/ good intentions. now where did i put my PS2???

out

Kind of funny that the issue isnt even KS v MO anymore; Olathe is trying to recruit a business from its next door neighbor (Lenexa) utilizing incentives!! Talk about swimming in your own excrement....WHEN IS THIS MADNESS GOING TO STOP?????? LATEST NEWS 4:04 PM CST Tuesday Olathe City Council will co...

$20?? that better be one helluva dance my man....

cost of living is cheap and i make wayyyy too much money here to try to find another job anywhere else. but seriously, it is frustrating to see our city put on pause due to a lack of a regionalism and intergovernmental cooperation. our metro area is doomed unless we can take a more regionalist appro...

Anyone have a suggestion on what the Sprint campus can be used for when they are moved out of the KC area? Looking for out-of-the-box ideas here folks....
