Clay Chastain Seyz Brookside Loves His Latest Transit Plan

A petition update from this town's most prolific transit activist . . .

Clay Chastain: It's infrastructure stupid.

That's why the majority of Voters (approached) in Brookside are embracing Chastain's Green Transportation Initiative (centered around an Airport Monorail connecting KCI to a Central Union Station Hub (& the City's Streetcar system), the Plaza and the KC Zoo). And, they vote too! These voters realize that because... KC's crime is unending & spreading, KC is at the same population it was 65-years ago, the Plaza is 30% vacant, Central City streets are in shambles & our transit system is kaput... we need to get something going to turn the City around.

KC is a beautiful City, but its beauty, well-being and future growth is being marred by its current status as an unaffordable, car-dependent City with wall to wall cars & few transportation options.  And even though young people want to live in environmentally - friendly cities with great public transportation, KC leaders plod on with the status quo projects like a 6,000 car parking garage at KCI. Though City Hall & the local media seem indifferent, voters in Brookside are not. Chastain (personally) collected 500 - signatures (in about 25-hours of petitioning) @ 2-Brookside Grocery stores. The trial test has been completed. The Green Transportation Initiative will be approved by Citywide voters if placed on the ballot.

With the World Cup coming (650,000 attendees from around the world), where is the City's transportation plan to show the world Kansas City is a rising Premier City? The Green Transportation Initiative could be the City's plan if they will act to adopt it & place it on the ballot ASAP.
