I...This process isn't being publicized enough. It's not just about expanding the line, but expanding the taxing district to include all properties from State Line to Campbell, and from the river to 51st. The increase in property taxes will be substantial, even if being called an assessment, and last for about 25 years. There are lots of home owners just scraping by, living in homes that used to be worth 50,000.00 that are now valued at 100,000, who often don't speak english but are legally here, who will get dinged for this and not even know why.

Most of the City Hall shills live in subsidized condos downtown, so they're out.<br /><br />It's not only the difficult voting process, it's the extremely limited pool of allowable voters who make this end-run so nefarious. After a city-wide vote in which this exact type of expansion was defeated, probably less than 500 people will attempt to put the city on the hook for hundreds of millions of dollars.<br /><br />REMEMBER, this is just the first step, though. This vote just creates the TDD. The supporters also have to get an affirmative result in a November election in order to set a taxing rate for the district (thus generating the money).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10849017.post-71672969361068585542017-05-03T10:56:51.283-05:002017-05-03T10:56:51.283-05:00The streetcar has been such a scam for KC, just sa...The streetcar has been such a scam for KC, just saw one go by and it was basically empty.
