folks, you can not like the stadium deal, and that’s ok because you will get to vote to share that opinion.
But reality is, the CBA documents exist, and they include a lot of what the opposition is saying isn’t included: Transportation, a “better…

Why quote "better deal?" You got the docs one week prior to the vote. It's not disingenuous that the opposition hasn't seen a clear commitment, and may not see an enforceable CBA with these docs. Post the CBA for us all to review instead of gatekeep them for an in-person meeting.

What about those who can’t attend the meeting because of other commitments? Also, will the meeting be recorded for those who can’t attend?

Manny, an accusation has been made with evidence that the Royals contributed a significant sum to your campaign.
With your insistence on trust in public officials, can you deny or confirm this has happened?

PLZ. You’ve hidden behind your chambers until the 11th hour. Denying people the opportunity to ask questions about this tax measure an open legislative hearing isn’t how a democracy works.
The Royals and Chiefs say their community benefits agreement with Jackson County is historic, but economists and community groups disagree. One economist said he’d use it as an example of a “fake CBA,” another said it was “entirely PR”

Cool. The 1st District County Legislator is telling his constituents to kick rocks when they ask that info on an upcoming vote be made publicly available.

I'm currently visiting Chicago and looking at their city in amaze...I was a yes before and now I'm a HELL FREAKING YES vote for me...

It makes zero sense to up and relocate a stadium that's only 50 years old. Downtown is already congested, in fact too congested. There's tons of land on Blue ridge boulevard and i-70 + 40 highway for restaurants and revitalization. I'm not only voting no I'm voting hell no!!!!!
