Perfect example of the shake downs going on led behind the scene by MayorQ. Every wack job group is demanding cash for support and they got it...blood money
I read HCs post carefully because he doesn't usually babble.
You don't trust the parking and you think the location still need to address about 4 businesses.
Gosh, those are really sad reasons not to revitalize your downtown. LA has a downtown that rolls up at night. Denver's I walk all the time. And if you think it's because I'm a thug, i assure you Rain Man would too.
Fix your shit and all the other stuff you're worried about goes away too. Can't get people downtown en masse without a reason. Can't fix your downtown without people. [Reply]

If revitalization is truly a goal then they picked the exact wrong spot to put the new stadium.

It's a cool area, I usually make it there every visit to KC... great beer and bourbon selection.
The stadium would be within easy walking distance of both. [Reply]
“While we are always excited about new carriers, I am thrilled to welcome JetBlue as one of our partners at KCI," said Kansas City Mayor Quinton Lucas. "With new nonstops to New York and Boston, our flying public in Missouri, Kansas, and beyond will have more access to vital business and cultural offerings in the Northeast, more Royals victories in the American League East, and to JetBlue’s destination network. In 2017, Kansas City, Missouri made a commitment to an improved airport for our entire region. We’re proud to see our voters’ support bearing fruit. Expect more positive announcements as KCI and Kansas City government help lead our reopening and economic recovery.”
Sadly too many people in JACO will give in to their threats SEVEN YEARS BEFORE THE LEASE IS UP.
I'm a "no" vote if for no other reason than the team's performance, but I'd be a "no" vote because it's WAAAY to early to be having this conversation AND because you don't have to be an accountant to understand the numbers are a little too unbelievable. If they weren't complete BS we'd have done this exact thing last time they renovated the TSC.
But again, too many JACO voters are afraid of the team moving, even is only over to the Kansas side of the line. [Reply]
