TKC EXCLUSIVE!!! KANSAS CITY CORPORATE SINGLE-TERMINAL AIRPORT ORDINANCE DOUBLE TROUBLE EXPLAINED!!!



Here's a real world look at the flight plan for the seemingly unavoidable KANSAS CITY SINGLE-TERMINAL CORPORATE AIRPORT CRASH COURSE . . .

The Citizens For Responsible Government do a nice job of explaining the sitch and the difference betwixt one money grab vs. the next in their latest blast.

Jamming the SINGLE TERMINAL down our throats!

Below are two ordinances being considered this week at City Hall.. I am sorry for the "whack-a-mole" approach but these senseless introductions continue to come out of nowhere. IF EITHER ONE OF THESE PASSES, YOU’LL BE STUCK WITH A SINGLE TERMINAL. YOU WILL HAVE NO IDEA OF WHAT IT WILL LOOK LIKE OR THE QUALITY OF THE PROJECT.

107523  - This is Jolie Justus’s attempt to jam through the Burns & McDonnell single terminal plan. If you vote for this ordinance, you will approve a SINGLE TERMINAL, without any kind of a plan. Plus you will also approve PRIVATE FINANCING Only without any consideration for Aviation Bonds to be used. This will dramatically drive up all costs associated with the airport.

170439 - This ordinance is sponsored by Katherine Shields. Neither Justus nor Shields has anyone else sponsoring their respective ordinances. Perhaps there isn’t much support on the council. 170439 will again limit construction to a single terminal but use aviation bonds to finance. Aviations bonds would be cheaper. What about a proposal that doesn’t limit the construction to a single terminal? As you can see, there is no need to be wasting any time on either of these proposals. Why don’t we wait till we have a plan for the voters to approve and then figure out how to finance it? Maybe it will be a remodel plan!

Please call the council members and tell them to stop these two worthless ordinances in committee. This is embarrassing for them to ask the voters to approve something we can’t see or touch. It’s simply a trick to get the single terminal plan approved. Call them and then plan to vote NO-vember if things don’t change!

  1. Of course the single terminal is going to get rammed down our throats.

    Sly already made the deal and now is bullying everyone to live up to it. He did the same thing with the hotel.

  2. What's the phone number?

  3. No deals until Sly is gone- and process should at first consider multiple options

    ReplyDelete
  4. Process should give multiple teams 50k and six months to do the very best effort

  5. Maybe 5-6 to start, cheaper than the pr to set the fix

    ReplyDelete
  6. We want a contest that brings real creativity and different options to the table

  7. Teams can propose single terminal or current facility upgrade including technology partnerships, process managed by committee of three judges charged with maintaining integrity

  8. That would be a show worth watching

  9. If those firms sign on with burn em Mac then if burn em Mac gets disqualified then they are out too, until integrity is restored shun everybody on the Mac daddy fix

  10. Now Sly is maintains the charade of transparency, he obviously was working in secret for the Burn em Mac fix, one for the Rockhurst mafia

  14. I'd move away immediately.

    Those big highways with the ramps and bridges? They go to other places.

    How do you use them?

    Get on one and keep going.

    1. Shudup, BurnSmack mouthpiece. Not all of Killa City is
      blinded by bribery. Plenty of KC is being burdened by greedies doing too much in tax grabs.

  17. where's a good place to move to?

  18. If the mayor and council wants it, they will get it one way or another even if it's illegal.

  19. While 70% of the public may be happy with the present airport and interested only in a renovation option, only 3-4 members of the Council (Shields, Loar and a couple of others) have even bothered to look at that option.

    The Shields ordinance -- requiring ballot approval for airport revenue bonds -- gives the most public control over the design approval to the voters because if a design does NOT keep the convenience factor, they can vote NO! (Neither Airport Revenue bonds nor the Justus/Burns & Mac "private financing" impact the City's General Fund or other revenue. Both are paid for out of airport revenue ONLY -- despite the misleading "private funding" BS. It is just that private funding is LOTS more expensive!)

  20. Hey Phil... in the interest of full disclosure, you might want to mention thay you're married to Shields.

  21. ...or as you were known in 2007, "co-conspirator".
