Cauthen's contract from the Council was approved this afternoon.
But that's not the end of it . . . By a long shot.
Everyone who is interested in will be watching the the outcome of Bill Skaggs' lawsuit against Kansas City scheduled for 3 p.m. today at the Jackson County Circuit Court.
The end result is that Funkhouser's lack of leadership has turned Kansas City politics into an episode of The People's Court.
Now a judge is slated to make the decision that Mayor Funky couldn't bring about on his own . . . It's the first big test for the City Charter and I don't necessarily take the word of the City Attorney (or any lawyer) as gospel.
Regardless, this legal battle represents yet another failure brought about by Funkhouser who couldn't wait for the Council to work out the contract and instead tried a stubborn unilateral move that has the business of Kansas City settled in a Courtroom like a messy divorce . . .
Funk should fire his pro temp, He sucks.
