The Council trashed the plan and Kansas City voters' wishes without ANY alternative light rail plan tendered.
We can railroad the citizens to vote for niceties for the corporate pro sports teams and new arenas- two things with little to no benefit to middle and lower-income voters- yet give little attention to public transit.
This really pisses me off- damn good thing the council didn't pull this stunt the week BEFORE the sales tax extension vote!
Until the city council rectifies this political gaffe- all of my sales tax will be collected in Raytown and I'll be humming some re-done song lyrics: "Little is up to date in Kansas City...."
