Parks-Shaw Power Couple Devise Mayoral Conflict Resolution???

Strangely . . . The contest for KC Mayor seems to be heating up this week and there's a south side update that merits attention. 

Admittedly . . . We're filing this one under ELECTION SPECULATION but it addresses a very real concern . . . The question . . . 

How will Mayor Pro Tem Ryana Parks-Shaw address concerns about a conflict of interest given that her husband is Public Works Director Michael Shaw?!?

At the 5th District Council level . . . Nobody seems to care.

BUT . . .

As a mayoral candidate . . . The question is tougher to dodge. 

And so  . . . Insiders tell www.TonysKansasCity.com . . .

DON'T RULE OUT THE THE PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR RUNNING FOR COUNCIL!!!

Actually, that's not a bad fix and will represent a conflict that's NOTE QUITE AS BAD as the situation that would emerge if council lady Parks-Shaw would win the mayoral contest with her husband still holding a high-level position at city hall. Like it or not, there are plenty of husbands & wives across the nation who hold positions on the same legislative bodies.

Moreover . . .  This would make the Parks/Shaw power couple one of the most formidable in KCMO history.
