TKC BREAKING AND EXCLUSIVE NEWS!!! COUNCIL DUDE GLOVER WANTS MORE THAN ONE MILLION BUCKS FOR THE DOWNTOWN "TOY TRAIN" STREETCAR WHILE THE MLB ALL-STAR GAME DISTRACTS KANSAS CITY!!!

We'll make this this quick and then cover it again in the morning . . .
DURING THE ALL-STAR PARADE . . . KANSAS CITY COUNCIL DUDE IS MAKING A PLAY TO GRAB 1 MILLION BUCKS FOR THE DOWNTOWN STREET CAR!!!
It's a big play for the Kansas City Council dude . . . And I'm not even sure if Transportation and Infrastructure Chair Russ Johnson is in town . . . This could be a power play from Council Dude Glover to get his share of the toy train glory.

Take a look at the ordinance THANKS TO KICK-ASS TKC TIPSTERS who are more concerned about TRANSPARENCY than mediocre baseball. ORDINANCE NO. 120603 sacrifices a lot for the sake of the proposed street car THAT DID NOT GET FEDERAL FUNDING.
"Estimating revenue in the amount of $1,340,000.00; appropriating that amount from the Capital Improvement Fund to the Downtown Street Car System for preliminary engineering for a downtown circulator system; and recognizing an emergency."
You read that right . . . It's an EMERGENCY!!!
We're gonna talk about this more in the morning but TKC TIPSTERS wanted this crowd to know FIRST!!!
Natch.
Developing . . .

He looks confident.
These proponents are fucking crazy. Or else there's some serious 'under the table' influence going on we don't know about.
Somebody has to pay their bills. There are no jobs.
Did he take over Beth's seat on the Council?
It would be interesting to know how many "emergencies" we've had in the recent past (say last 2-6 mayors) and how many have occurred during this (short) tenure so far.
Great way to try to gain the voters' confidence right before Sly's big tax vote next month.
Doesn't these people's behavior EVER have any consequences?
They make Lucy and the football look unpredictable!
How many times does money have to be appropriated for "preliminary engineering"?
Just another gravy train for the transportation planners just like the millions spent studying the rail proposal in Johnson County that ended up being buses run on the shoulder of the interstate.
What a joke!
But no raises for city employees for several years??! Nothing like a hearty "fuck you, city workers" from the Council.
Wow, Jim hasn't done shit for my area of his district but he can waste his time on this crap?
Glover = KC's WORST Politician.
wake up voters, bitch on tkc and next year it will be no different, stop spending time on here and start using your time to educate people on what this city could be! bet you only care about you...keep on doing what you are doing and you will keep getting what you are getting, we need some new leadership material her in KC with a side of creativity and hold the greed.
10:44 you are a retard!! but i will give you this, greed usually holds Kansas city citizens back when they entrust their vote in the city government here.
I don't know if 10:44 is for or against the Downtown Streetcar but I like the cut of his jib.
His jib may be jab but whats his view on unsolicited whatever
Jim Glover does not have to campaign, he is the balls.
Straight out of the packaging never been used work gloves and an unashamed child molester grin, I can see why people keep vote for this guy. Also the rest is bullshit too.
Don't ya wish there was a software you could run on city government that would methodically go through it and remove the STUPIDITY?
Glover is fucking worthless. That's it, in a nutshell.
Good for Jim.
Wasting more fucking taxpayer money on this stupid idea. Good job council fucktards
12:54: I don't agree with Glover on this, but your (again) alleging child molestation is disgusting. Your candidate lost, and you didn't get that city job he promised you if he won, so get over it already.
A light rail line in Kc was an emergency in 1990. Now its just another crippling lack of modern ammenities, as we watch smaller, equally spread out cities like Cincy and OKC and Charlotte and Tucson invest in their cores.
WHERE ARE JIM GLOVER'S KIDS!?!?! WTF
Wow! Thanks for catching this T. Holy shit a nefarious guy like Glover, too! Glad you're watching over stuff like this. Really, we mean it....we're laughing with you, NOT at you. Honest.
